Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 118: Chapter 114: The cries of apes from both banks don’t cease, yet the light boat has already crossed 10,000 heavy mountains

Crash——!

The emerald waters of the Canglan River rushed downstream, passing through the rapid slopes, gradually becoming calmer.

The towering mountains on both sides of the river gradually disappeared, replaced by willow-covered riverbanks.

Lush trees were reflected in the water, some near and others far, dyeing the river with vibrant green, occasionally revealing the tops of trees with leaves alternating between yellow and green.

A boatman, with dark skin and a lean figure, stood at the bow, wearing a straw hat made of woven grass, holding a slender bamboo pole polished to shine, occasionally pushing against a reef to adjust the course of the black awning boat.

Chen Zhixing, dressed in coarse cloth, observed intently, his form subtly rising and falling with the boat’s rocking.

Besides Chen Zhixing, there were two groups of people on this black awning boat.

One group was a pair of newlyweds, both lacking any cultivation.

The young woman, probably only sixteen or seventeen, was gentle and lovely, her belly slightly protruding, clearly pregnant.

Her husband, dressed as a scholar, whispered softly beside her, inquiring about his wife’s well-being.

From their conversation, they planned to return home for her to rest and await the birth.

The other group consisted of a young aristocrat in luxurious clothing and two tall, sturdy servants.

The young aristocrat had some cultivation, roughly at the Nourishing Spirit Realm.

As for the two servants, they were broad-shouldered and muscular, possessing nothing special beyond their great strength.

The young aristocrat occasionally glanced at the pregnant woman and whispered with his servants, emitting low laughter.

He looked again, and laughed again.

Chen Zhixing had no intention of interacting with these people, silently Nourishing the Spirit, contemplating how to enter the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands.

Time passed slowly.

The young scholar could no longer bear the aristocrat’s gaze towards his wife, and stood up with a start, speaking with a hint of hostility:

”Since you boarded this boat, you’ve been staring at my wife and laughing. May I ask, what about my wife makes you laugh so?”

The young aristocrat lazily raised his head to look at the scholar, snapping open a folding fan, smirking without smiling:

”What? Is your wife the daughter of a high-ranking official? You won’t let anyone look at her? If you don’t want people to look, just stay home quietly and don’t come out!”

His words immediately incited laughter from the two servants behind him.

”You!”

The young scholar’s face flushed with anger, ready to respond.

”Shuwen, let it go.”

The gentle woman tugged at the young scholar’s sleeve, eyes filled with worry.

The young aristocrat was richly dressed and accompanied by ruthless servants, clearly difficult to deal with.

In this vast expanse of water, should something truly happen, what would they do?

The young scholar understood his wife’s concerns.

He gritted his teeth and sat down again, avoiding looking at the young aristocrat, lest seeing him provokes discomfort.

However.

The couple wished to avoid trouble, but how could the young aristocrat let them off so easily?

His eyes shifted, and he whispered with a wicked smile:

”I’ve heard that pregnant women are renowned for their wondrous appeal, one of the world’s top ten incredible pleasures. I have a friend who once tried such a pregnant woman, and he found it utterly enchanting and extraordinary...”

Though he spoke quietly, how big could this black awning boat be?

”Scoundrel!”

The young scholar, blood boiling, could no longer suppress his inner rage, leaped up, and glared with fury: ”You spout vile language, this is simply outrageous!!!”

Hearing this.

The young aristocrat was unfazed, instead smiling slightly: ”My dear fellow, since this journey is long and boring, why don’t you lend your wife to me for a day? Of course, I won’t ask you to give her for free; I offer you a hundred taels of gold as a token of sincerity.”

He paused, then laughed lightly while shaking his fan: ”Rest assured, once I reach my destination, we’ll go our separate ways, never mentioning today’s matter again, as if it never happened.”

”By then, you continue on your lonely path, I walk my brighter path, I gain pleasure, you gain wealth, with neither of us owing the other.”
