Chapter 47 Heaven's Will
The sun just shone on the land, announcing the start of another day.
Inside Lenny's room.
Lenny was snuggling with Jasmine, but he woke up when the rays of the sun fell onto his eyes.
He opened his groggy eyes and yawned. He got up, and did some stretching on his arms. He looked below at Jasmine, who was hugging him like a koala, refusing to let go of him.
They were a bit too much passionate last night.
'Maybe it was because we opened up to each other.' Thinking of that, Lenny snuggled her back and caressed her smooth body.
However, that made Jasmine woke up from her sleep. Still, she didn't say anything to him and instead hugged him back as if she wanted to melt with him.
Lenny had a smile on his face. 'How can people cheat when they have such a sweet and beautiful wife in their house?'
That thought made him remember the last night's event. 'Mingzi, you don't see the gold in front of you. How stupid can you be?'
After badmouthing Mingzi a little, Lenny called the system. 'System, I have something to ask.'
[ Say it, host. ]
'What was that thunder last night? I feel like I will die instantly the moment it lands on me.' Lenny was very curious about it.
[ It is from the Heaven's Will. ]
[ When someone gets married in this world, they have to vow to Heaven's Will and it will register their companionship. ]
[ When someone wants to break their marriage, the Heaven's Will will break their intangible connection. ]
'That's it? It feels the same as in my previous life. Just the Heaven's Will is doing the Marriage Office's job.' Lenny felt it wasn't that serious and started to lose interest in it.
[ Host, I think you are getting it wrong. ]
[ Heaven's Will is a higher existence. It can give blessings when someone gets married, and if you want to use it just for a stupid reason like divorcing your partner, it would get mad. ]
[ The blessing it will give is luck, and if you destroy the oath you took under it, it will take away the luck it gave you and take that same amount of luck from what you have from birth. ]
'Luck..huh? It seems it is very important.' Lenny sighed in his mind.
[ Yes, it is. Luck is what makes many people sons of destiny. Without exaggerated luck, they would have never been what they are now. ]
Lenny agreed with the system. 'You are right. Luck plays a vital role.'
Then something struck in his mind. 'System, does the Heaven's Will affect us? Because she is my dao companion.'
[ No, host. You didn't vow under the Heaven's Will. You vowed under me. ]
[ When you said "Yes" to let Jasmine join your harem, you had already vowed. ]
'So, that means we won't be affected by any kind of luck.'
[ Yes, you guys won't get any blessings, nor will you get your luck reduced. ]
'That feels better.' Lenny became elated.
He wasn't worried about Jasmine leaving him but was for his future harem members. He didn't know if they would do something surprising in the future.
After thinking all of this through, Lenny said to Jasmine."Wake up, how long are you going to sleep?"
"Just a little more." Jasmine coquettishly said as she bruised her face under his arm.
"What kind of cultivator needs sleep? Come on, wake up; today is a big day." Lenny got up.
"Arhh~" Jasmine got up too and pounced on Lenny's neck. She bit on his skin a little and said."It is all your fault. You didn't want to let me go."
Lenny brought her in front of him and started kissing her. Jasmine obliged him which led them to kiss for a few minutes.
After they were done. Lenny said to her. "How can I let go of such a beautiful wife?"
"Hehe," Jasmine chuckled in pure happiness.
"Okay, let's get up. You have something to attend to for me." Lenny said as he got out of bed, naked.
Jasmine also got out of bed, naked, and started wearing a dress. "By the way, if you succeed in infiltrating the treasury, how will you take out all the treasure? We don't have such a big storage ring."
"Oh, about that, I have something prepared," Lenny said as he looked at the notification before his eyes.
[ Storage space (10 cubic meters) - A additional space that is carriable and can store any items except live people.
In-store: Air Piercer, one-stage spirit stone x60, two-stage spirit stone x2, pants…boots… ]
Lenny didn't bat an eye on the trash he has stored in. Instead, he focused on the "10 cubic meters".
At first, when he saw it increase, he was extremely confused. So he asked the system what happened.
The system informed him that when he crossed a major realm, his storage space would increase by twice as much as the previous time.
"Okay if you say so." Jasmine shrugged her shoulders, as she had full faith in Lenny.
…
While Lenny and Jasmine were preparing themselves, everyone had already arrived at the main gate of the town where the people from the sect would come.
The road was filled with various kinds of people, and all of them were filled with enthusiasm.
"When do you think they would arrive?"
"I do not know. They are big guys, they can come whenever they want."
"But, they always come after the sun comes out."
"Forget about them, do know who will be able to get the number one position?"
"It has to be from the Burnheart. I heard they have a secret genius that they had in once in a lifetime."
"Hmph, everyone has that kind of thing."
The streets leading to the gate were bustling with all kinds of discussions. Some were discussing how their business might become, somehow the people from the sect would come, who had the highest chance to succeed.
It was like a festive atmosphere.
And amidst these discussions, a cry sounded from the distant sky.
"SKREEE!"
