**Chapter 86: The Lord of the Blood Garment Tower, Fei Lingxue** - Ah? The Wives I Abandoned Turned Out to Be Real
**Chapter 86: The Lord of the Blood Garment Tower, Fei Lingxue** Seeing the screen go black, Su Mo felt a twinge of anxiety. Oh no, is the simulation ending just like that? If it truly finishes, I might have to use the chance to designate a romantic interest to learn more. This was the only way to gather more information. Just as Su Mo was feeling concerned, the scene brightened, and the surroundings transformed into the interior of a palace. At this moment, the perspective was first-person, and all Su Mo could see was the bed canopy. His heart skipped a beat, hoping he hadn’t been captured by this woman. ... [You feel like you've awakened from a long slumber.] [When you wake up, the surroundings are no longer outside of Liuzhou City, but inside a luxurious palace.] [You lie on a soft couch in this palace; the Frost Sword, Cold Autumn Sword, Swift Wind Sword, and a piece of mysterious iron command token are placed beside you. The place is empty, with only an incense burner releasing a slow waft of sandalwood fragrance.] [You struggle to get up, feeling overwhelmingly sore, as if you’ve gone through a fierce battle, with muscles aching and bones disassembled.] [At this moment, Su Jin and two other maidservants enter from outside the palace.] [Seeing you awake, Su Jin quickly steps forward to you.] “Miss Xiao, you’re awake?” [You look at Su Jin with some hesitation.] “Where am I?” [Su Jin chuckles.] “Miss Xiao, you were poisoned by the old man Ku Rong and fainted halfway. It was my lady who brought you back home.” “Your lady?” [Feigning ignorance about Ling Fei’s gender.] [Seeing your confusion, Su Jin explains with a smile.] “Of course, it’s Ling Fei.” “But Ling Fei is just a pseudonym used by my lady; her real name is Fei Lingxue.” “She is the lord of the Blood Garment Tower, the top hidden organization in the realm today!” “Blood Garment Tower?” [This is the first time you’ve heard of the Blood Garment Tower and have no understanding of it.] “What does the Blood Garment Tower do?” [Su Jin continues to explain.] “Miss Xiao, the Blood Garment Tower has no specific direction for development and performs tasks that many martial sects do.” “However, over the past century, its reputation in the martial world has been obscure, so it’s only natural that you haven’t heard of it.” “I see.” [You feel a bit apprehensive about such a massive organization. The wealth exhibited by Ling Fei, or rather Fei Lingxue, surpasses even the top clans in the martial world.] [Initially, you speculated that this Fei Lingxue might be someone from the imperial palace, only for a mysterious Blood Garment Tower to surface.] [Seeing you deep in thought, Su Jin speaks up:] “Miss Xiao, although you have taken our exclusive antidote, the Nine Dragons Powder, the residual poison inside your body will still take some time to completely cleanse.” “Our lord has some matters to handle and cannot personally visit you.” “She asked me to tell you to rest and recover here during this time.” [While you don’t understand when the old man Ku Rong poisoned you, considering he is a grandmaster of poison, you comprehend.] “Thank you!” [You reside at the Blood Garment Tower's main base.] [Su Jin and the others do not restrict your freedom, allowing you to roam around the tower's main base at will.] [The main base of the Blood Garment Tower is filled with beautiful women, with splendid palaces that make it seem like a paradise outside the mundane world.] [You vaguely sense that this place should be a valley, but you cannot determine its exact location.] [For reasons unknown, Fei Lingxue has been preoccupied and hasn’t come to see you.] [Additionally, whether due to the Nine Dragons Powder, your Supreme Goddess Technique successfully breaks through to the seventh level.] [The breakthrough to the seventh level of the Supreme Goddess Technique leads to a transformation in your internal energy, now hinting at an attractive force.] [If deployed, it can absorb a portion of the opponent's internal power during battle.] [Furthermore, when executing the seventh level of the Supreme Goddess Technique, your skin begins to appear slightly translucent, resembling a celestial being from a distance.] [You find this situation delightful.] [Because with this, you can cultivate the Supreme Goddess Technique to its highest, the ninth level, within five years.] [While it's partly due to your grandfather tempering your body when you were young, your comprehension is also commendable.] [This accomplishment has been reached within such a short time because of that.] [You've stayed at the Blood Garment Tower's main base for half a year, until May of the following year.] [During this period, you’ve spent quite a stable life.] [When you become well-acquainted with the surroundings, Fei Lingxue returns.] [Her first action upon returning is to see you.] [Now, she has forsaken her previous male attire and is clad in tight black clothing, accentuating her excellent figure.] [Her captivating eyes are filled with an intense possessiveness directed towards you.] [You are only too familiar with such a gaze because it's the same look you have when you secretly admire Su Jin.] [For you are particularly fond of gentle and charming women like Su Jin.] [Recognizing that Fei Lingxue, despite being a woman, prefers women, you understand her feelings towards you.] [She's taken a liking to you.] [You are somewhat troubled by this situation.] [With the Supreme Goddess Technique not yet mastered to the ninth level, how could you resist if Fei Lingxue were to force herself upon you?] “Miss Xiao, how have you been these past six months?” [Fei Lingxue's voice is soft and silky, with none of the previous coarse accent when she was in male guise.] “Thank you, Lord Fei.” “In these six months, not only have I fully recovered from my injuries, but my martial arts have also improved significantly.” [Upon finishing, you take a step back.] [Fei Lingxue remains indifferent to your actions.] [In her eyes, you are already her possession.] [It's merely a matter of getting you sooner or later.] [You've begun feeling estranged, as months amidst blossoms and grandeur have dulled your thirst for vengeance.] [You worry that continuing like this will cause you to lose your clarity.] “Lord Fei, I've troubled you long enough. Seeing your return reassures me, so I'm preparing to leave and fulfill my purpose in the martial world.” [Fei Lingxue seems a bit surprised at your intent to leave.] “You're leaving already?” “Is there a mission? I could assist.” [Fei Lingxue's offer gives you pause.] [Although you are unaware of the exact strength of the Blood Garment Tower, you understand it is potentially much stronger than the so-called Smoke and Rain Tower, Assassin Alliance, or Green Sect.] “Well, if that is the case, I wanted to inquire about one thing.” “That is, what power annihilated the Su family back then?” [Your inquiry brings a glint of wariness in Fei Lingxue's eyes.] [But seeing you’re a woman, her doubts dissipate considerably.] “Why is Miss Xiao interested in this?” “Are you connected to the Su family?” [You nod and promptly weave a reason for yourself.] “Yes, the head of the Su family back then, Su Tianhong, once helped our Xiao family. He rescued us from the clutches of the old man Ku Rong.” “He even taught us the martial arts of the Su family.” “So upon hearing of the Su family’s downfall, I’ve been traveling the martial world, investigating the truth behind it.” “Sadly, the old man Ku Rong didn’t divulge any information before he passed.” [Upon hearing your rationale, the wariness in Fei Lingxue's gaze vanishes.] “So it's like this.” “But I’d like to inquire, where did you acquire the Frost Sword in your possession? I heard it is the sword of Su Mo, the son who escaped from the Su family head, Su Tai.” [Embarrassment flickers across your face.] “Su Mo is my fiancé.” “You have a fiancé?” “And it’s Su Mo!” [Fei Lingxue's expression is one of shock, a faint murderous intent surrounding her.] [You’re slightly taken aback by her aura.] [For the presence Fei Lingxue exudes is on par with martial grandmasters.] [You nod immediately.] “Yes, Su Mo is my fiancé, he entrusted me with this sword before I left.” “To provide me a means of self-defense.” [Fei Lingxue's expression is complex.] [Evidently unable to accept the fact that you have a fiancé.] [In her heart, you are her forbidden fruit, belonging only to her.] [A fiancé? He can die for all she cares!] “Where is this Su Mo now?” [Upon hearing her words, your eyes instantly reflect caution.] "Lord Fei, what do you mean by that?" [Realizing her slip, Fei Lingxue quickly composes herself.] "Nothing, I was just a bit curious." "Unexpected, really, that the sole heir of the Su family is your fiancé." "As for the force responsible for the Su family massacre, I’m not entirely sure myself. Why not stay at the main base a while longer? I’ll have someone look into it." [Gratitude floods through you at Fei Lingxue’s offer, and you nod appreciatively.] "Thank you, Lord Fei!" "No problem! It's a small matter!" "Why don't we go have a meal first?" "Alright!" [However, at the banquet, you feel somewhat uneasy. After hastily finishing your meal, you return to your room.] [In the days that follow, Fei Lingxue creates opportunities for you two to spend time alone daily, with her attire and style changing each day.] [Though she is undoubtedly beautiful, in your eyes, she is like a poisonous flower.] [A thing of beauty coupled with lethal danger.] [Fei Lingxue remains undeterred by your conscious resistance. Rather than giving up, she intensifies her advances with even more fervor.] [Sometimes, with such an extraordinary beauty enamored with you, you can't help but wish you could master the Supreme Goddess Technique to the ninth level by the next day.] [Then you could handle this enchantress effortlessly.] [While you continually fend off Fei Lingxue’s advances, the intelligence department of the Blood Garment Tower brings forward crucial news.] [The culprits who annihilated the Su family have been identified!] (End of Chapter)
