Aiding My Queen With My System

Chu Feng transmigrates to a fantasy world only to realize that he’s a handsome but useless man who’s marrying into the family of Ji Rui, a capable woman of very high cultivation level. He quickly falls for his beautiful fiancee only to find out that she just wants to maintain a fake marriage to appease her powerful father, Ji Zheng. He finally finds himself in a situation that he would usually find in novels upon getting married—he is blessed with the Divine-level Son-in-law Freeloader System. The irreverent system rewards him with mysterious gift packs and rare treasures for his efforts in completing missions, resulting in him quickly advancing from an ordinary person to a cultivator. Ironically, Ji Zheng becomes more powerful due to a treasure Chu Feng receives from the system, which culminates in Ji Rui becoming the supreme leader of the four major sects in the world. However, opposing forces remain lurking in the shadows and Ji Zheng decides that a special treasure is required to aid Ji Rui in her ultimate advancement in cultivation. In her search for this rare treasure, a stranger from afar comes with information of a cryptic ravine that splits the Purgatory Sea into two. She decides to follow the stranger and brings Chu Feng with her on the dangerous trip to the faraway Purgatory Sea which teems with itinerant cultivators, demonic beasts, and valuable treasures. When they run into a life-threatening situation, Chu Feng says to Ji Rui, "My instinct is to protect you." She is amazed with this man in front of her. Why would this weak and useless man want to save her when he knows that their marriage is only a sham? What should she do with this husband of hers? What would happen to their relationship when they find the special treasure?

You Even Hid It From Her!

Translator: Atlas Studios Redakteur: Atlas Studios

For the entire duration, he appeared to be at ease and maintained the smile on his face.

Yan Bang's face quickly turned red.

He begged, "Brother Chu Feng, I didn't mean to offend you."

No one had expected that Chu Feng, who had always appeared ordinary, would actually be a warrior.

What was going on? Even Weidai He did not realize it.

Yan Bang's fragile neck was in extreme pain. He had no doubt that if Chu Feng had been any more ruthless, he would have died here.

Although his original determination to win had been burst like a bubble, Yan Bang very tactically promised Chu Feng that he would not have any designs on the treasures again.

Even so, he was still shocked to the core. He had thought that Chu Feng's standard was not much different from his, but who knew that it was actually a facade deliberately put up by the other party…

"Sigh, I told brother Yan Bang to think twice before doing anything. Actually, I didn't want the situation to become so tense. Unfortunately, you didn't listen to me."

Chu Feng was very happy. He had thought that the Chu Feng couple would notice something about him, but he did not expect things to go so smoothly.

"Alright, since you admit defeat, it's time to return that treasure to its original owner, right?"

His usual smile returned, only this time it was noticeably more cheerful.

Cold sweat broke out on Yan Bang's forehead. He struggled for a moment and said, "Cough, cough. Put me down first and I'll explain it to He'er."

However, he realized that Chu Feng's hand was as hard as a pair of iron pincers. No matter how he struggled, the grip did not loosen at all.

"Don't worry, I won't take your life. When you bring me the treasure, I'll let you go."

"Only you have to promise not to expose my strength."

Yan Bang was stunned by what Chu Feng said.

He asked in confusion, "Not to expose your strength? Could it be that sect master Ji Rui…"

Chu Feng nodded and said slowly, "Yes, you can't tell anyone that I'm a warrior."

Yan Bang chose to submit to force. Although he was extremely surprised, he quickly agreed to Chu Feng's request.

"Brother Chu Feng, I promise I won't tell anyone."

It was understandable that Chu Feng did not expose his cultivation in front of Weidai He. After all, everyone would subconsciously keep a trump card.

But why did he hide it even from Ji Rui?

After they spent so much time together, Ji Rui had actually not discovered this matter… What kind of treasure did Chu Feng use to hide his cultivation level and why was he unwilling to expose it to Ji Rui?

Yan Bang felt dizzy from all his thoughts, but he could not find a reasonable explanation.

Seeing that he had agreed, Chu Feng immediately let go of his neck.

He did not want to display the power of a warrior in front of Ji Rui so quickly, so he used the system to block people's perception. This was indeed a very useful move and no one had ever discovered his secret.

Even Ji Zheng, who had advanced to the Martial Emperor realm, had never raised any suspicions.

As long as Chu Feng did not expose his cultivation himself, no one would know even if he advanced to the Martial Sage realm a year later.

This feeling made Chu Feng very happy.

The Celestial Water Repelling Flood Dragon had thought that the two of them needed to fight for a longer period of time, but it did not expect the outcome to be decided so quickly.

It did not even notice that Chu Feng was actually a warrior!

After being stunned for a while, the Celestial Water Repelling Flood Dragon sized Chu Feng up again. Other than during the moment he launched his attack earlier, there was no indication of any spiritual energy fluctuations from his body.

It had thought that they were just rookies pecking at each other, but it did not expect that one of them had played dumb to take advantage of the other…

"You're a warrior? Why can't I sense the spiritual energy fluctuations on your body?"

The Celestial Water Repelling Flood Dragon stared more intently.

"I've been practicing martial arts since I was young and I'm a little stronger than ordinary people. To say that I'm a warrior would be nonsense."

Chu Feng waved his hand repeatedly. It was obvious that he was unwilling to waste any more effort on making any explanations.

Yan Bang looked in the direction of Weidai He with a disappointed expression, feeling a little guilty. Just earlier, he had vowed to defeat Chu Feng. Who would have thought that he was actually a warrior? It only took the two of them to look at each other face-to-face for the outcome to be decided.

On the other side, Weidai He also sensed that Yan Bang's life was under threat and hurriedly stopped fighting.

"Yan Bang!"

Wei Daihe's figure disappeared in a flash and she appeared in front of Chu Feng. When she saw him holding Yan Bang hostage by the neck, her expression turned fierce.

However, Ji Rui quickly caught up and released her aura to envelop Chu Feng.

"You're not allowed to hurt him."

"Of course I won't hurt brother Yan Bang. You should understand what I mean, right?"

Chu Feng smiled and looked at the saber at Weidai He's waist. It was obvious what he meant.

"I'll return the treasure to you, and you release Yan Bang too."

Weidai He gritted her teeth and threw the pitch-black saber towards Chu Feng.

She agreed without hesitation.

Chu Feng immediately reached out to catch the saber and gave Yan Bang a push. He smiled and said, "You're lucky to be in my hands. Don't go around snatching other people's treasures in the future."

Yan Bang's face darkened.

He had already decided to stay far away from this person. Who knew that Chu Feng would actually swipe the Profound Mystery Bead from his hand as well!

"You!"

Yan Bang felt anxious. Without the Profound Mystery Bead, he would be crushed into a paste by the sea pressure!

However, Chu Feng said flippantly, "Let's treat it as your apology gift for your rash actions and we'll write off this matter. I believe my good sister-in-law won't mind, right?"

He had long discovered that the bead in Yan Bang's hand could part the seawater. The value of such a useful thing would be comparable to the Water Repelling Pearl.

Even though he had a divine-level check-in system and the system rewarded him with treasures that were many times better than these, Chu Feng still felt that the treasures that he obtained personally felt nicer to hold!

Weidai He knew that he still had a hold over Yan Bang's life. She hurriedly shook her head and said, "Take this Profound Mystery Bead as our apology gift. I hope you can forgive his recklessness and not hurt his life."

"Yeah, sure."

Chu Feng paused for a moment before saying, "This bead is called the Profound Mystery Bead? Can you tell me what it does?"

"Other than being able to repel seawater, this Profound Mystery Bead is able to observe the movements of anyone within 10,000 miles as long as it is fed with a little spiritual energy. The premise is that you must be able to project the person's appearance in your mind and the person can't be too far away from the range of the Profound Mystery Bead."

Weidai He did not hold back on details of the method to use the Profound Mystery Bead.

What a treasure!

Chu Feng gently pinched the Profound Mystery Bead in his hand and felt emotional at the extent of his luck. With such a treasure, wouldn't he be able to know what any person was doing with just a thought?
