The Way of The Dao
Chapter 871 I Want You To Know That No Matter What, You'll Always Be My Brother..."Ever since we married you, we knew that we probably wouldn't be the only women in your life, since sooner or later you would become a very powerful man too!" Deng Xie smiled happily.
"And since powerful and prominent men tend to attract a lot of attention, it would be natural for women to appear who can enter your heart!" Fu Ling added with a sympathetic smile.
These women had discussed this issue before. How could they not be able to notice Qin Xuzi's obvious feelings? Her gaze towards Mu Shen was very obvious even if she tried to hide it!
Moreover, knowing each other this time, each of them realized that Qin Xuzi was sincere and honest with everyone, with a good heart without any hidden intentions seeing that they were strong, especially Mu Shen. It was the first time they had met a woman of their own age who was sincere and honest.
Qin Xuzi's loving gaze on Mu Shen conveyed sincerity and innocence to them, knowing that Qin Xuzi had sincere feelings.
Needless to say, they also loved Qin Xuzi very much and they had come to accept her into their hearts as well.
It only remained for Mu Shen himself to get involved and accept her.
"My sisters and I already talked about this matter, and we agreed to make sister Xuzi one of our sisters in every way as well!"
Hu Wenxin took Qin Xuzi's small hand and looked at her with an honest smile full of anticipation, before looking at Mu Shen and waiting for his response.
Deng Xie and Fu Ling circled around and took Qin Xuzi's other small hand as well, looking at Mu Shen for his response.
Qin Xuzi was a mess, her heart full of chaos as she didn't know what she was seeing and hearing. Her heart was pounding intensely, not wanting to cause trouble with Mu Shen but at the same time with a little expectation of what his answer would be about her when she understood what was going on.
"Y-you really agree?" Mu Shen asked after several seconds, shifting his gaze between these four women who were looking at him with different emotions, "But wouldn't it be wrong? Won't you feel bad about what happens next? I don't want you all to think that I want to be like those arrogant men who have many wives and concubines!"
Hu Wenxin rolled her eyes as she saw Mu Shen's doubtful but confused expression, but she also felt happy and grateful to Mu Shen for thinking of them and not making decisions without reasoning them out.
It could clearly be seen that Mu Shen was concerned about all of them and was also restrained about his feelings towards Qin Xuzi.
"Don't you see what we are saying and expressing? Of course we want you to accept sister Xuzi! We already approved her and only you are missing!" Hu Wenxin finally added. Beside her, Deng Xie and Fu Ling were also smiling full of anticipation, hugging a confused and shy Qin Xuzi.
Mu Shen blinked dazedly before taking a deep breath, as if making a decision. His gaze finally settled on Qin Xuzi and he approached her, who couldn't help but lower her head shyly for a moment before raising it slightly, her eyes shyly watching Mu Shen as the blush betrayed her.
After traveling for a while in this cultivation world, Mu Shen realized many things, especially about the matters related to people and their intentions behind them. Mu Shen was grateful to have married Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling, because these women really were sincere and honest and their love for him was true and sincere.
But when he met Qin Xuzi, Mu Shen could not help but be attracted to her innocence and sincerity, having known her tragic past and for all that she has been through, Mu Shen protected and cared for her, not realizing that in this course of time, his heart opened towards her as well.
Qin Xuzi was not like the other self-interested or evil women he had met so far, she was just like his wives, sincere, cheerful, honest and with good feelings.
But Mu Shen did not want to betray his wives, so he hid this feeling in his heart, waiting for what the future would bring.
"Sister Xuzi... you... you want to be with me?"
Now, with the words that Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling had said to him, Mu Shen could not keep these feelings deep in his heart and took courage. He took her small hand and looked at her with a serious expression but with a feeling of sincerity and affection.
Qin Xuzi's pupils widened, her heart beating intensely and dozens of times per second, trying to keep the strength in her legs as shyness, nervousness and joy completely covered her.
"B-but will it be okay? I-I don't want to cause trouble with you... you don't have to do this for the sake of not abandoning me..."
Qin Xuzi's voice became faint at the end, with her gaze shifting between Mu Shen towards Deng Xie and Fu Ling, to finally look at Hu Wenxin who seemed to have the leadership among these sisters.
lightsnοvεl Qin Xuzi was completely happy, but she always felt that she would be a burden to them if she got involved in their lives.
"What are you talking about? Of course it will be fine! In fact, it will be perfect!"
As if sensing Qin Xuzi's feelings, the women looked at her with big smiles and Hu Wenxin happily added.
"B-but I'm just a servant..."
"That doesn't matter! Right now you are just Qin Xuzi, a free and unattached woman!"
"But I have nothing valuable to offer..."
"You are wrong! You have a big heart and very valuable feelings!"
"But I am weak and will be a burden to you..."
"Then we will help you become strong like us and you will never be a burden!"
"But I don't know how to cultivate..."
Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling interrupted her as Qin Xuzi spoke, shaking their heads and encouraging her, but when she said the latter, Qin Xuzi was saddened and couldn't help but squeeze the corners of her dress with her hand again. She was a mere servant, so she was never taught to cultivate and as far as she knew, her ideal time to cultivate had passed, so it was almost impossible to cultivate and achieve great accomplishments.
Suddenly, Qin Xuzi's small hand was wrapped in the two hands of Mu Shen, who looked at her affectionately but honestly.
"Then we will teach you to cultivate, in that way, you will be so strong and we will be together for a long time." Mu Shen smiled warmly and lovingly at her, "You don't have to worry about that."
Qin Xuzi finally couldn't resist any longer and her eyes filled with tears that quickly rolled down, wetting her cheeks while deep in her heart the images of Mu Shen, Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling were marked intensely and forever.
The next moment, Qin Xuzi's little body rushed towards Mu Shen and hugged him very tightly, trembling full of joy and happiness.
"B-brother Shen, I want to be with you for a very, very long time!" Qin Xuzi exclaimed from the depths of her heart.
Mu Shen smiled and hugged Qin Xuzi affectionately as well, still feeling somewhat dazed.
At this moment, a fourth woman had entered his heart.
"Now sister Xuzi is already our true sister in every way!"
The women cheered upon seeing this, looking at Qin Xuzi and Mu Shen with big smiles.
Mu Shen and Qin Xuzi froze when they heard their voices, with the latter becoming even more filled with shyness and embarrassment as she finally realized that her wishes had been fulfilled.
"Sisters, thank you very much..."
But still, Qin Xuzi boldly turned around and looked at Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling with a sincere and grateful gaze, thanking them for everything they were doing and hugging them with all her heart. Qin Xuzi knew that she could not repay all the love and affection they have given her so far, so she promised herself to love these people very much and be a good sister to them and a good woman to Mu Shen.
"You don't have to thank us, we are sisters after all!"
"You are our sister now and we will protect you! You won't be alone anymore! So if anyone tries to bully you, you have to tell us!"
"You will never be alone anymore! Now we will be together forever!"
Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling cheered Qin Xuzi, hugging her and smiling happily.
"Thank you..."
This time, it was Mu Shen who thanked with an expression with many feelings, knowing that he couldn't thank enough for what his wives were doing for him.
"But now that said, as long as you don't let too many women into your heart, then everything will be fine!"
However, Hu Wenxin looked at him as she pointed at him, forming a smile of complicity but at the same time somewhat domineering, expressing that she won't let him have many women. Deng Xie and Fu Ling also looked at Mu Shen, indicating that they agreed with Hu Wenxin!
Mu Shen blinked and smiled; with women like them loving him, it would be very difficult to find special women like them in this world.
Quickly, Qin Xuzi was approached by the three women, hugging her and starting to chat with each other, with Qin Xuzi finally showing cheerful and happy smiles.
As if he felt he forgot something, Mu Shen quickly turned his head to look at Ling Tian.
But unexpectedly Ling Tian was no longer there.
Mu Shen's eyes soon caught a paper note on top of the small table where Ling Tian had left the teacup. On top of the paper note was also a small storage ring. Even the skill book that he had previously given Ling Tian was on the side as well.
Mu Shen took the paper note and read it silently.
Soon after, Mu Shen smiled gratefully after reading the paper note, knowing that Ling Tian was gone and that from now on he would have to protect these women by himself, so he had to resume his journey of becoming stronger.
Even in the note he left him some written advice and experiences, as well as places, cities and sects in the south state that he could visit with his women. While in the storage ring he left countless cultivation resources for all of them, jade plates with information, spiritual artifacts, tools as ultimate options and books containing various cultivation skills, he even left a cultivation method for Qin Xuzi after sensing her aura and knowing that her age for cultivation had passed!
Several face restoration pills were also found in the storage ring, for Mu Shen and Qin Xuzi to use.
Information and location about the sect and residence in the north state was also written down for when they went in the future.
But what surprised him most was that Ling Tian seemed to have seen through him from the beginning.
'We may not meet again for a long, long time, no one knows, but I want you to know that no matter what, you'll always be my brother...'
Mu Shen took a deep breath, knowing that he could not repay Ling Tian for all he had done for him. Ling Tian always treated him like a brother, but he even hesitated a little earlier thinking that he had to respect and keep his space with Ling Tian so as not to insult him or make him think bad when he realized that Ling Tian was not as young as him.
But Ling Tian never treated him any different.
"Thank you, brother..."
Mu Shen whispered full of gratitude towards Ling Tian, realizing that despite everything, Ling Tian will always consider him his brother equally.
Mu Shen turned around and cheerfully joined the conversation with the women, deciding what they would do next when they understood that Ling Tian had left.
With Ling Tian's strength, the worry Mu Shen had from the past about his younger sister had disappeared as he trusted him, so Mu Shuiruo will be completely safe with Ling Tian, as Mu Shen's primary task of always taking care of Mu Shuiruo when their parents had passed away fell upon him, and now that he had fulfilled this task it was handed over to Ling Tian.
Although Mu Shen would always worry about his younger sister, he now knew that she was in good hands.
From now on, it would officially be just them in their journey: him and these four women he loved dearly.
