Right now, Ryan Ling was speechless after hearing that. Chief Mira had just recovered from a serious illness, and while he was only a Heavenly Immortal, he was still brimming with energy—his skills in that area had conquered plenty of women before. Could Chief Mira really handle him?
But while Ryan was still worrying, Chief Mira suddenly spoke up beside him: "Husband, why don't we share a cup of wedding wine first?"
"Share your wine, my ass..." Ryan almost blurted out something rude, but caught himself just in time. He quickly put on a polite face and said, "Chief Mira, I'm nothing special—average looks, mediocre strength. How could I possibly deserve to marry you..." To be honest, Ryan just wanted to keep a low profile and avoid trouble right now. He wasn't planning to stay here long, so marrying another wife was the last thing on his mind.
But before he could finish, Chief Mira immediately cut him off: "Husband, say no more. Our union was destined in a past life—don't hesitate! Let's go straight to the wedding chamber!"
"Wedding chamber? Are you kidding me?" Ryan was speechless. He thought, you've just recovered from a major illness—if we go at it now, you might not survive, let alone enjoy a wedding night. This is insane!
But as soon as Ryan finished speaking, Chief Mira grabbed him and yanked him straight onto the bed, her face looking downright desperate. What really shocked Ryan was how strong she was—he, a grown man, couldn't even resist her and ended up pulled right onto the bed.
"Chief Mira, calm down—seriously, you need to take it easy right now..." Ryan quickly supported her, worried she'd reopen her old wounds. But Chief Mira seemed even more impatient, snorting, "Calm down? You're fussier than a woman!"
With that, Chief Mira had already pinned Ryan down completely.
Ryan had wanted to push her away, but what caught him off guard was that not only was Chief Mira incredibly strong—her body suddenly gave off an unbelievably alluring fragrance. The scent instantly captivated Ryan, making him shiver. He couldn't believe it: that fragrance was almost exactly like the aura from his severed immortal finger.
In that instant, Ryan froze. Now that he was standing firm on Immortal World turf, his next step was clear: he had to track down the missing pieces of his original body. Even just reclaiming a single finger would give his cultivation a massive boost, letting him quickly recover his Golden Immortal status. If he could reach Golden Immortal, nobody within a thousand miles would be able to touch him—and his safety would be guaranteed.
"Come on, husband!" Chief Mira suddenly realized Ryan Ling had stopped resisting, and she got all fired up. Right now, Ryan’s mind was flooded with info from his past body, so he wasn’t thinking about anything else—if he wanted more answers, he’d have to get even closer to her. And there’s only one way to do that!
Since she was the one taking the initiative, Ryan figured he wasn’t losing out. He had no choice but to go along with her—maybe then he’d figure out why she had that weird aura. Soon enough, the two of them were totally tangled up together!
"Now that’s more like it, that’s more like it..." Chief Mira shouted excitedly, and Ryan hugged her tight!
In that moment, Chief Mira dropped all her guard and totally relaxed. Ryan didn’t hesitate—this was a golden chance. He sent his energy slowly into her, and that strange aura started spreading through her whole body!
As soon as his energy penetrated her, clues from inside and outside Chief Mira’s body flooded into Ryan’s mind. Most of it was just boring daily tribe stuff, nothing special. But suddenly, he caught a memory of her falling into a cliff full of that same dense aura—just like his immortal finger! Instantly, Ryan got hyped.
No doubt about it—the thing he needed was in that cliff!
Judging by the coordinates, that cliff had to be close by—definitely within a hundred miles.
"Awesome!" Ryan couldn’t help but yell. If he could find that stuff, his power would skyrocket—he might even break through to Da Luo Golden Immortal!
"That’s right, you really are awesome! You’re the strongest man I’ve ever met—so powerful! I’m totally conquered!" Chief Mira cried out.
Ryan was a little speechless, but honestly, even if Chief Mira’s aura wasn’t as strong as the real deal, it was still a huge boost for his cultivation. If he absorbed it right, he could jump straight from Heavenly Immortal to Divine Immortal—saving himself a ton of trouble!
Meanwhile, as things got heated in Chief Mira’s bedroom, a bunch of tribe women were all outside with their ears pressed to the door. In this tribe, a man was basically a national treasure panda—super rare—so of course they were all dying to eavesdrop.
But after a wild night, it was over fast. Both of them collapsed on the bed, totally wiped. Ryan only rested a bit before going all out, madly refining the energy he’d absorbed from Chief Mira—it was seriously rare, and he couldn’t afford to waste it.
"Charge!" Ryan didn’t hesitate for a second. That aura started spinning like crazy inside him, and his power skyrocketed. He’d only just reached mid-stage Heavenly Immortal, which was basically slave level here—maybe not even that. But after an hour or two of focused meditation, he finally broke through to Divine Immortal!
(Web-serial break notice skipped: not part of the novel.)
Ryan took a deep breath—this kind of power was more than enough for now. He’d only been in the Immortal World for a day!
Next up: if he could find that cliff and cultivate inside, his strength would get a massive boost. He had to move fast—no time to waste!
The sun was already up. Ryan figured he’d grab breakfast and then head out to hunt for that cliff!
But just then, the bedroom door slammed open. Ryan was pretty annoyed—they were both still naked, after all! Even if these tribal women didn’t care about etiquette, barging into the chief’s room without knocking was a bit much.
He was just about to say something as the chief’s husband when a terrified woman burst out: "Chief, it’s bad! The Savage Tribe is attacking us—the outer two defensive lines have already been broken, and our sisters are badly hurt! The High Priestess is holding the last line, but I don’t think she can hold much longer. You need to go—now!"
As soon as she finished, Chief Mira leapt out of bed. She was the top dog here—no way she’d ignore a crisis like this, exhaustion or not. She rushed out, ready to go head-to-head with the Savage Tribe!
Ryan didn’t hesitate either. Sure, his plans were wrecked, but the tribe’s safety came first. Plus, he was Chief Mira’s husband now, and after last night, there was no way he’d just stand by and watch them get slaughtered.
The moment Ryan stepped out of the cave, he saw the Savage Tribe had already taken over the area. They were all huge and burly, and a lot of them were Divine Immortal level—way stronger than the mostly Heavenly Immortal women here. The middle-aged High Priestess was barely holding on...
