My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 79 - 064 Storm Center

Xu Chang’an picked up the items to be delivered, placed them in the public storage pouch, and was about to leave when someone called out to him.

He turned around and found that the person calling him was the Timekeeper of Muyu Peak.

The so-called Timekeeper, in essence, means the person who keeps track of time.

However, on Muyu Peak, the position of Timekeeper is equivalent to the chief manager of the entire Outer Sect Steward Hall, so... the middle-aged woman before him was, in a real sense, Xu Chang’an’s immediate superior.

She appeared to be about the same age as Qinling, but seemed much gentler.

"Chang’an greets Senior Fang." Xu Chang’an saluted.

"Young man, you’ve finally broken through to the Open Source Realm. You’ve really changed a lot." Fang Sishi smiled.

Xu Chang’an responded.

It was evident that the Timekeeper in front of him was very pleased.

After all, Xu Chang’an had been working under her for over a year, and all his growth had unfolded right under her eyes.

"More than a year, it took a little long... but it doesn’t matter." Fang Sishi thought for a moment and said, "During these times, most of the girls have to prepare for the upcoming Sword Testing Spring competition, and with guests arriving from all directions, not to mention Three Officials Rock, the entire Muyu Peak will be busier... you should also prepare for the Inner Sect trial. It wouldn’t be right to be continuously interrupted by their matters."

Upon hearing this, Xu Chang’an realized something.

Fang Sishi said, "If not, how about I give you a long leave? You can come back after you’ve entered the Inner Sect if you still want to... or perhaps, you should simply stop working and focus on cultivation."

"..." Xu Chang’an pondered for a moment upon hearing this.

Even though Fang Sishi seemed to be persuading him to step back, it was obviously for his own good.

However, he was not planning to give up his work as an Outer Sect Steward for the time being.

The future path was still unclear, and accumulating some sect contribution points was important. After all, he still wanted to prepare some elixirs for Yun Qian, and these required contribution points.

Moreover, so much time had passed that he already knew how to balance work and cultivation.

In fact, working as an Outer Sect Steward was also a form of cultivation. It allowed him to understand various common aspects of the cultivation realm, and due to his position, Xu Chang’an was also well-acquainted with how some of the girls on Muyu Peak practiced cultivation.

So, he wasn’t simply wasting time here.

Xu Chang’an had his considerations. When his cultivation level increased, and time became too tight, he would naturally resign from this job without needing others to remind him.

Moreover, there’s the most important point.

He currently had no master, no backing... so the position of steward on Muyu Peak was his "support." With guests arriving from all directions, there were all sorts of people on the mountain, and as the only male disciple on Muyu Peak, Xu Chang’an was well aware of how conspicuous he was.

If he accidentally caused some trouble... he would still have a backing.

When examining a problem, one cannot take things for granted, so Xu Chang’an was very clear about what he wanted.

Exchanging some time for Muyu Peak’s "status" and contribution points was worth more than anything.

——

Returning to his senses.

"Senior, for the time being, I have no intention of taking a break." Xu Chang’an said.

"... I knew it." Fang Sishi narrowed her eyes slightly. "This is your own decision; it’s not us delaying your time... anyway, if you leave, I don’t know how many girls will come to pester me about it."

Seeing Xu Chang’an’s helpless expression, Fang Sishi curled her lips: "As an Outer Sect Steward, you have certain conveniences in the Inner Sect trial. You’re not doing all this for nothing. All right, go get busy; I won’t delay your time anymore."

Xu Chang’an nodded and then left the main hall of Muyu Peak.

He was planning to meet Senior Wen.

"..."

Watching Xu Chang’an’s departing figure, Fang Sishi slightly opened her narrowed eyes.

She didn’t know what had happened to Xu Chang’an, but clearly, from the moment he entered the Open Source Realm, almost everyone’s attention was on him.

She was worried about Xu Chang’an becoming the center of a "storm," especially since with so many people on Muyu Peak, there might be issues arising from competing for disciples.

In such a scenario, having him do menial work was clearly not appropriate.

Therefore, it was necessary for her to ask this. She wanted Xu Chang’an’s voluntary decision to stay, so that... those women would have nothing to say.

And with Xu Chang’an voluntarily remaining in the Steward Hall of Muyu Peak, if any trouble arose, she would have a reason to step in and help him as a senior.

Even though her cultivation level was not as high as those secretly observing Xu Chang’an, cultivation was never the most important thing on Muyu Peak. As long as she firmly held the position of Xu Chang’an’s "immediate superior," she would have more say than them.

"Smart child." Fang Sishi looked in the direction Xu Chang’an had left and smiled with satisfaction.

It’s a pity... how did he come to have a wife? It feels like he and some of the girls from Muyu Peak would be quite a match. If it could be resolved internally, it would surely be a joyous event.

Then, Fang Sishi seemed to recall some unpleasant matters.

Profound Sword Bureau.

After the Young Master of the Profound Sword Bureau visited the mountain, the Sect Leader of the Profound Sword Bureau even wanted his son to become a Dao companion with Wen Li of Muyu Peak.

Although both of them were sword cultivators and Sikong Jing’s talent was outstanding among the newcomers, making him promising in the future,

the people of the Profound Sword Bureau didn’t even bother to assess their worth. How could they match up to the Senior of Muyu Peak?

As the future Senior of Muyu Peak, no one was going to interfere in Wen Li’s private matters, and this was a consensus among everyone on Muyu Peak.

Thinking of this, Fang Sishi’s eyes revealed a hint of oddity.

The disciples on Muyu Peak weren’t aware that Wen Li had someone in her heart, but Wen Li, as the most brilliant star of Muyu Peak, had been watched by everyone all along... so, her little feelings weren’t really a secret among the higher-ups.

The fact that the proud Wen Li would care for a married man... to the extent of delicately offering him a Source Opening Pill.

Such a girlish gesture was really eye-opening.

Fang Sishi didn’t know if Wen Li’s care was love... after all, no one knew what Wen Li was truly thinking, but her attention towards Xu Chang’an was already quite incredible.

How things would turn out, no one could say. Xu Chang’an didn’t seem like a fickle person.

Especially considering Xu Chang’an’s wife had also entered Celestial Bright Peak now.

"Hmm..."

Hopefully, it wouldn’t affect Wen Li’s performance in the upcoming Sword Testing Spring... but with Wen Li’s disposition, such small matters wouldn’t affect her, after all, she had always been the most outstanding among her peers.

Yet, even for such a prominent Wen Li, she could not capture more of Xu Chang’an’s attention.

This made Fang Sishi very curious about Xu Chang’an’s wife, a woman with no cultivation skills, just an ordinary girl, who could hold on to her cultivator husband so firmly.

Logically, since Xu Chang’an was a cultivator, his expectations should be higher, right?

What was it that Miss Yun had?

Her looks? Her personality? Or her physique.

Hmm, it was heard there was quite a bit of an age gap too, maybe Miss Yun would be fit to cultivate the Charm Technique of Muyu Peak.
