The Housewife Is an Immortal Cultivator

by Catofdreams

  "Alright! Let's do this!", he let out a battle cry as he prepared himself for the next round. His opponents also recovered from the earlier disbelief and were now prepared to catch whatever their opponents had in store for them.

  As Lang Jie tossed the ball into the air, the announcer's eyes glinted as he saw Lang Jie's movement.

  "It's actually…!", the announcer gasped as she realized what she was about to witness. The crowd was instantly drawn in by her comment. Even Mister M and Rilla felt that the serve was going to be spectacular after hearing the announcer.

  "Actually… a beginner's serve…", the announcer then sighed as she continued her earlier sentence, which made everyone groan out of disbelief once more, except for Mister M and Rilla. For some reason, they felt uneasy. Something was off about the serve that Lang Jie was about to deliver.

  As Lang Jie's palm hit the ball, a sound far louder than Rilla's serve pierced everyone's ears. The ball moved at a speed far faster than Rilla's Meteor Smash, but the trajectory made everyone think the same thoughts.

  'Ah… it's gonna be out…"

  Everyone's thoughts were synced, even Rilla's, but Mister M's thoughts were a bit different. The ball was going in a straight horizontal line. It was going to go out of bounds for sure, but Mister M looked at the ball with a feeling of dread, because in his eyes, the ball was moving straight at him, and the speed at which it was coming was far too fast for him to dodge in time.

  Mister M knew that that moment was going to be the deciding factor of the duel. The game was supposed to finish after a team wins a set, but he was sure that it was going to end right there and then.

  'Hmph… you win this time…', Mister M thought as he let out a smile. This was the first time that anyone has ever won against him. Perhaps, Xue Yan wasn't destined to be his.

  Mister M closed his eyes, and for the first time in his life, he wallowed in the feelings of defeat, but he didn't get to experience the sadness for long.

  *BOOM*

  A horrendous sound came from the impact of the ball and Mister M's face. Mister M immediately lost consciousness and slowly fell to the ground.

  "Young master!"

  His bodyguards scrambled to make their way towards their fallen master. All of them were panicking and immediately started looking for medical assistance.

  The announcer, along with the crowd, couldn't help but show a shocked expression on their faces. The announcer, unlike the others, however, recovered quickly.

  "Another point for Team Red… and due to an emergency, Team Red wins by default!", she then clapped as soon as she finished making the announcement.

  "You did it darling!", Xue Yan was now jumping in joy as she once again imagined the exciting night she'll have with her husband in the private hot springs. Lang Jie also went along and jumped in joy after their victory. He felt ecstatic that he was able to win against a giant monkey and a famous celebrity.

  The crowd was still stunned, leaving the announcer and the married couple to celebrate by themselves.

  As Lang Jie and Xue Yan were still basking in the feeling of victory, the announcer suddenly approached them.

  "Mister Lang Jie…", the announcer raised her hand for a handshake, which Lang Jie immediately responded to out of politeness. Lang Jie scratched his head, unsure as to why the announcer suddenly approached him, while Xue Yan was now burning up due to the feeling of jealousy watching her husband touch another woman's hand, even if it was for formalities.

  "You've taught me a lot… now I know that I still have a long way to go before I become a good announcer…", as she said that, her gaze turned towards the ocean. Her eyes seemed to be looking at something far away.

  "Uhh… no problem, miss…", Lang Jie wasn't quite sure how to respond to her.

  "You can call me Yu Wen.", she let go of Lang Jie's hand and handed him a business card.

  "I will go on an expedition to improve my announcing skills.", Yu Wen continued gazing at the sea.

  "If there will be any future event that you and I cross paths once again, I'll show you that I won't be the same amateur announcer as I am today.", she turned her back towards Lang Jie and slowly walked away.

  Lang Jie and Xue Yan looked at each other, both confused as to what just happened.

  "What the hell was she talking about?", Lang Jie asked Xue Yan, who looked as clueless as he did.

  "I don't know…", Xue Yan responded.

  "Well, whatever. We have more important matters to attend to! Let's have dinner before we pack our luggage and transfer rooms!", Xue Yan urged her husband to move right away. She couldn't wait any longer. She really wanted to dip in the bath alone with her husband.

  "Okay… but I still can't help but think that maybe there was some meaning as to what she just said…", Lang Jie felt like he was close to reaching the answer he was looking for. They continued talking about the matter on the way to her room.

  "Ah! Maybe that was her way of telling us to hire her for future events?"

  "Oh… perhaps you're right…"

  Xue Yan paced outside the paper door that led to the private hot springs reserved for them.

  She felt unsure whether she should push through with her plan. Her heart was beating like crazy. She also felt that her husband might be turned off if she was too bold.

  While she was deciding whether she should join her husband or not, a voice from the other side of the door suddenly came.

  "Honey? Is that you?", Lang Jie's called out for her wife. He could see a silhouette of a person pacing back and forth outside the paper door, and he was getting pretty freaked out thinking that it might not be his wife.

  "A-ah! Yes!", Xue Yan responded with an embarrassed voice.

  "Oh! You should come in! There's something here that I want to show you!", Lang Jie called out to her with an excited tone in his voice.

  "S-something that you want to show me? Could it be…?", Xue Yan's mind was starting to get filled with more impurity, but she shook off those thoughts knowing that her husband was a pure and innocent man.

  "It was so small earlier, but now it's huge!", Lang Jian excitedly described the thing that he wanted to show his wife.

  "W-what?!", Xue Yan's thoughts were now filled with nothing but filth. She cursed her own incompetence. When she was cultivating in her younger years, she thought she had dispelled every atom of impurity in her body after breaking through multiple bottlenecks, but it seemed like the impurity in her brain remained intact.

  'How could you think that your husband is a wild beast! He's a pure and innocent angel! But if he is a wild beast then… hehe…', Xue Yan's thoughts ran wild. She began drooling as she began to imagine what would happen if she went in right now, but as much as she wanted to, she didn't want her husband to think that she was such a bold woman.

  "Xue Yan, honey? Come quickly! I really want to show it to you before it becomes soft and small again!", Lang Jie once again called out to his wife.

  After hearing those words, Xue Yan immediately made her decision.

  'I must go in.'

  Xue Yan ran towards a nearby mirror to try and make herself look prettier. She then noticed blood running down from her nose.

  'Ah… perhaps his words were too much stimulation…',

  She tried calming herself down, but she couldn't. Surely her husband was talking about that…

  As she approached the paper door once more, she felt her heart beating like crazy once again. She felt extremely excited, but also scared. In her mind, it's fine for her husband to be a lewd beast, but she didn't want her husband to think that she was a lewd woman. She thought that if her husband were to think that she was lewd, he would come to hate her and leave her for another woman who is far purer than her, but she was simply just overthinking.

  'You are married to him! It's normal! Calm down!', she tried to calm herself down before joining her husband.

  'Come on… calm down, my heart… if you beat too fast, I might faint inside and we won't get to d
o… KYAA!!', her desperate attempts at calming herself down was futile. Every time her heartbeat became steady, thoughts of her husband inside the bath would come surging in her head and would make her heart beat faster than before.

  After fighting a fierce internal conflict between her heart and mind, she finally snapped out of it after hearing her husband's next words.

  "Honey! Quickly! I think it's about to shrink!"

  *SLAM*

  Xue Yan slammed the door open with her eyes closed. If she lost this chance, all of her hard work today would go to waste! She had to deal with annoying pests all day, so she felt that she deserved a reward, and this meal should be enough!

  "Ah! Honey! Look!", Lang Jie's voice echoed through her ears.

  Xue Yan was panting heavily as she realized that she was now alone in a private hot spring with her beloved husband. Her face was flushed red.

  As she slowly opened her eyes, her fantasies were then shattered.

  In the hot spring, her husband was lying on a large inflatable bed.

  "Look! It's huge right! We could both lie down on it!", Lang Jie looked extremely excited as he moved around on the inflatable.

  Xue Yan let out a sigh of disbelief. She knew that her husband was too pure to be talking like that, yet she still believed him. But who the hell would expect an inflatable bed on a hot spring?! And who describes an inflatable as something that's small and became huge?! Well… it does technically grow in size… but still!

  Xue Yan felt incredibly irked. She slowly approached her husband, who felt that something was off.

  "Xue Yan, honey? What's wrong?", Lang Jie asked her wife, who looked extremely scary. She was staring at him as if she was a wild beast.

  "Husband, forgive me, but I worked too hard today, so I will have things go my way!", Xue Yan exclaimed as she leaped towards her husband, who was still lying on the inflatable bed.

  "Honey?! Wait, what are you doing?! Wait! STOP!!!"

  And that was how the housewife, who is secretly an immortal cultivator, spent her vacation with her beloved husband.

  CHAPTER 8 – “THE HOUSEWIFE IS ON ANOTHER VACATION WITH HER HUSBAND, BUT SHE’S THE ONLY ONE THAT KNOWS ABOUT IT!”

  "I'll be back as soon as I finish work, honey…", Lang Jie tightly embraced his wife. He felt extremely sad as he thought about not being able to see his wife for a week.

  He always felt proud of being able to spend time with his wife every single day. As he imagined his wife sleeping alone on their bed, he felt extremely guilty about making her feel lonely, but as the man of the house, he had responsibilities to shoulder.

  Although his wife had offered to shoulder everything, he didn't want to depend on his wife, so he convinced her that he should be the one to work and earn money for them. After all, he was the one that asked her to marry him.

  Xue Yan hugged her husband back.

  "Don't worry darling, I'll be fine…", Xue Yan was still smiling cheerfully despite seeing her husband's concerned face.

  Even though her husband was going overseas for a business trip, she didn't feel any hint of loneliness at all. In fact, she felt rather excited.

  She already knew about her husband's business trip for a while. As soon as she found out about it, she wanted to do something to prevent it from happening since she knew that she couldn't stand a day away from her husband, but then she thought:

  'Why stop him when I can just follow him?'

  As soon as she had the idea, she applauded herself for her great wisdom. She knew that Lang Jie was going to be quite busy, so she also decided that she should just follow him secretly and watch him from afar. She also wanted to see how handsome her husband looks like while he's working hard.

  "Don't worry! I'll call you every night and send you lots of messages!", Lang Jie reassured his wife while holding her as tight as he could.

  "Okay, okay… you should go now! You can't be late for your flight!", Xue Yan let go of Lang Jie, who also did the same. Lang Jie felt reluctant to walk away, but Xue Yan's smile urged him to go. He had to let her live comfortably, and in order to do that, he knew he had to work.

  "If you ever feel lonely, don't hesitate to send me a message or give me a call!", Lang Jie continued talking to his wife as he slowly walked away. Xue Yan simply smiled and waved at him in response.

  When she saw that Lang Jie was already out of sight, she rushed back towards the house and took out the travel bag she hid under their bed. She had already packed her things the moment she knew about the business trip. She also booked a ticket on the same plane that her husband was going to board.

  As soon as she saw that everything was in order, she took out her phone and called on her trusty sidekick.

  "Hello? Boss?", a man's voice could be heard from the other side of the call.

  "Yeah, it's me. This Venerable One is going on a trip, so I'll leave the house to your care. As the vice president of the Lang Jie Fanclub, I expect you all to do your jobs well.", she sternly commanded the man.

  "Yes ma'am! Leave it to us! We're already on our way!", the man quickly responded.

  "Good. If this Venerable One sees that the house isn't well taken care of by the time I get back, all of you won't be getting away with just a scolding."

  As soon as she finished passing on her commands, she ended the call. As a safety measure, she decided to wear a disguise. She really wanted to see how natural her husband looks as he works.

  She used her powers to distort a small space around her body. As her qi circulated around her, she covered herself in an illusion, completely changing how she looks from every angle.

  Her new appearance had no resemblance to her original one whatsoever. She was a bit taller than before. Her body shape also became a bit thinner than her previous one, but her figure was still stunning.

  Her original appearance had eastern elegance written all over it, while the new appearance looked more influenced by western culture.

  "This should be good enough.", she was happy with the results. She knew that no one would be able to tell that she was Xue Yan. If she ran to a cultivator though, they might sense the qi that around her that formed the illusion, but she could easily silence anyone who dares to get in her way.

  As she was about to leave, a knock came from the front door.

  "Boss! We're here!", a man's voice came from the other side.

  "Ah! Mao Cheng!", she quickly opened the door. Outside the door stood the same group of men that cleaned her house before, back when dealt with Zhou Jingyi, plus a new member. The man that was handling the register back at the gasoline station while Lang Jie and Xue Yan went on vacation had now joined the group after being captivated by Xue Yan's beauty.

  She was about to compliment her subordinates since they were quick to heed to her commands, but they seemed to have a confused look on their faces as she greeted them.

  "Oh, right! I'm wearing a disguise…", Xue Yan had already forgotten about her disguise after just a few minutes. She lifted the illusion for a bit, revealing her original appearance to her subordinates.

  "Ah! It's you boss!", the people who cleaned her house before wasn't as surprised to the sight of Xue Yan using her powers anymore since they already had a taste of her using her qi. The man who was handling the cashier gasped as the woman in front of him turned into Xue Yan. He had no idea that Xue Yan could do that.

  She immediately put her disguise back on as soon as she saw that everyone had recognized her.

  "If anything happens, just send this Venerable One a message. Don't ever call unless it's an emergency.", Xue Yan sternly told them as she handed the house keys over to Mao Cheng, who was the large man that led the group.

  "Don't worry boss! Just enjoy your vacation!", Mao Cheng answered in the same way a soldier responded to a drill sergeant giving commands.

  Mao Cheng noticed that Xue Yan had a large bag beside her, which looked incredibly heavy.

  "Boss, do you want us to drive you to the airport?", Mao Cheng tried
to earn favor from his boss. After all, who wouldn't want to be on a powerful person's favorable side.

  "No, you don't have to. This Venerable One has to make it to the airport before my darling does.", Xue Yan easily picked up the large bag with one hand.

  "Okay boss!", Mao Cheng didn't even try to insist. After all, how could his driving make her arrive before her husband, who seemed to have already left.

  Xue Yan smiled and waved her hand, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared.

  "Boss really is amazing…"

  "Yeah…"

  The Lang Jie Fanclub once again witnessed the power of their president.
