Chapter 88: 79. Madam’s ‘Wonderful’ Plan (Subscription Request)_3
’Spying on my Dharma Method was quite novel.
The purpose of the spying could be guessed, and that was to secretly evaluate whether I, as the new partner, was qualified or not.’
‘So, what did Lady Zhushan care about? Or rather, what was she evaluating?’
Song Cheng tried hard to recall everything he knew about Lady Zhushan.
Words from Hong Juguang and Shi Zhongjian appeared in his mind, combined with his own understanding.
Subjective judgments and information naturally arose:
First, Lady Zhushan needed the Medicinal Human to be completely under her control, which meant she cared a lot about rules and that her commands be executed.
Second, Lady Zhushan’s original Medicinal Human was dead, so she definitely wanted a stronger partner.
Third, Lady Zhushan had not taken action against the Barbarians so far, what was she waiting for? Was it because she was seriously injured and had never recovered, or was there another reason?
Fourth, if Lady Zhushan’s Illusionary Realm and his “Black Sky Trick” were of the same kind, then Lady Zhushan must be a lunatic.
Because Song Cheng knew too well what “Black Sky Trick” was.
It was a weakened version of the forbidden “Reappear,” meant to “let you feel my pain too.”
He was “exempt from the cost,” so he remained mentally stable.
As for those not exempt from the cost… that was a different story.
Lady Zhushan might be one of them.
After much thought, Song Cheng had a general understanding of Lady Zhushan.
‘Since this is the case…’
Song Cheng contemplated and formed a plan in his mind.
No matter what, in a situation where the four-way game was already locked, he had to actively engage with this only untested path. At least this could possibly be his and the entire An Family’s retreat.
First, he had to pass Lady Zhushan’s evaluation.
…
…
“So tired.”
At dusk, Madam Tong, having trained hard all day, was exhausted and sat on the stone steps.
Song Cheng suddenly appeared and asked, “Do you need me to do anything?”
“Nothing at all, just rest well.” Madam Tong looked at him with heartache, only thinking how her man could be so considerate of women. He had just returned from battle this morning, and now he was still like this.
Song Cheng then tried to find a “woman who could assign him tasks,” but… Madam Tong, Miss An, and even Ying and Ling, none of them gave even the slightest hint of wanting him to do something.
Fortunately, night came.
Unintentionally, Madam Tong gave her first command.
“Song, aren’t you coming back to sleep?”
Song Cheng was practicing martial arts, but upon hearing this, he realized… the opportunity to showcase “traits that matched Lady Zhushan’s needs” had arrived, so he immediately said, “Coming right now.”
Then, he stopped practicing martial arts and returned to the house.
The sense of being spied upon disappeared, or perhaps it was blocked.
Madam Tong leaned over, helping him undo his belt and remove his clothes, whispering, “I heard that people who have been to the battlefield are particularly oppressed. Don’t restrain yourself… today, I allow you…”
Her voice grew smaller.
After some spell casting, Song Cheng held his wife and softly spoke of his plan.
Madam Tong was taken aback, but with Song Cheng’s patient explanation, she roughly understood the situation.
She burst into giggles, her face filled with curiosity.
Thus…
That night, the couple “conspired,” and the next day, they began “acting.”
With Madam Tong’s cooperation, Song Cheng naturally and easily demonstrated these “theoretically meeting Lady Zhushan’s interview requirements” traits.
Later in the afternoon, he secretly displayed a hint of his “trump card power” alone in the courtyard, moving with Gang Qi flowing, showcasing a second form beyond the White Snake from the True Form of Xuanwu.
A strong physique, fierce power, combined with “obedient traits.”
Song Cheng didn’t know how his “interview” results would be, but he felt the gaze watching him was fixed on him.
…
…
In the distance.
In an old mansion, the stunningly beautiful Lady Zhushan, wrapped in red silk, reclined on an ancient, gold-inlaid jade couch. Although luxurious, one glance showed it had aged.
Such a nation-toppling beauty with power in her hands should have had a joyful and indulgent life, yet Lady Zhushan had no trace of happiness, her beautiful face tinged with a sense of sorrow and disdain for all worldly things.
At this moment, she was looking into an ancient mirror with a greenish tinge of rust, and within was a young blind boy with his eyes covered in black cloth.
Lady Zhushan didn’t realize she was merely watching the “acting of the young couple.” She watched for a long time and couldn’t help but comment, “Not bad.”
Propping her chin in thought for a while, she seemed to make a decision and with a touch of her hand, the mirror reverted to its normal state.
Looking at her almost perfect woman’s face, her disdain reached its peak, and the pain in her eyes was at its utmost.
She casually lowered the mirror, then stood up.
First, she took an extremely conservative, unflattering robe from a luxurious clothes rack, covering her body without revealing any skin, then using her pinky, she extracted an ointment from a black jar and applied it to her face.
In an instant… the stunning face vanished, replaced by a pockmarked, plump face.
The pockmarked, plump-faced lady looked at this ugly face, nostalgia and gentleness in her eyes.
Carefully, she picked up a battered old medicine box bound in iron chains from beside the table, her expression solemn and sacred, then walked out of the old mansion.
Outside the mansion, four gloomy Martial Artists stood unmoving, like ancient statues.
Lady Zhushan said, “Da, prepare the sedan, head to the west of the city.”
She decided to find that little girl named Tong Jia.
It seemed that the little girl was a Physician too.
So, she could offer “teaching the little girl” as a condition for making that little girl command her man to partner with her.
Lady Zhushan trusted no man, nor did she want to establish any bond beyond “stranger” with any man.
She only trusted the Medicinal Humans under her complete control.
However, since that young man overflowed with gentlemanly virtues and so perfectly met her requirements, she had to make an exception this time.
After all, even if she partnered with that young man, it would still be a “stranger” relationship.
To that young man, it was merely a “mistress’s order.”
To be safe, she would also involve the young man’s other mistress.
A double order, even safer.

The reason Lady Zhushan did this was mainly because she had no time to wait for other options anymore.
She had to find a new partner immediately.
Time was running out.
