Many children, many blessings; the twelve ancestral witches forced marriages throughout the primordi

Lin Xuan's words instantly caused an uproar throughout the Shang army camp.

Deng Jiugong was so excited that he didn't even sleep. He immediately woke up all his subordinate generals and ordered them to set up the camp immediately. Although the conditions in the camp were simple, there was strength in numbers. In less than half an hour, the commander's tent was covered with red cloth, red candles were lit, and even the dirt on the ground was swept clean.

The cooks brought out all the meat they had stored away and set up a large pot to stew it. Although there was no fine wine in the military camp, there was plenty of strong liquor.

Dijiang, Zhurong, and Gonggong, these three roughnecks, loved such lively occasions. They immediately brought out several jars of strong liquor, sat in the middle of the camp, and started a drinking contest with the Shang army generals. The Shang army generals were no match for these ancestral witches, and were soon drunk and staggering.

Lin Xuan and Deng Chanyu held a simple wedding ceremony in the commander's tent.

There were no elaborate formalities, no congratulations from the entire court, only the thunderous cheers of the soldiers in the barracks. Deng Chanyu wore a hastily found red dress; although she lacked a phoenix coronet and embroidered robes, her strikingly beautiful face appeared exceptionally captivating against the backdrop of the red candles.

After the ceremony, Lin Xuan led Deng Chanyu into the back tent that had been prepared especially for them.

As soon as the curtain was drawn, most of the noise outside was instantly shut out.

Two thick red candles burned dimly inside the tent. Deng Chanyu sat on the edge of the bed, her hands gripping the fabric on her knees tightly. Normally fearless on the battlefield, she was now so nervous she could hardly breathe. She could feel Lin Xuan's gaze constantly scrutinizing her.

Lin Xuan walked to the table, poured two glasses of wine, and carried them to the bedside.

"Chanyu, drink a cup of nuptial wine." Lin Xuan's voice was gentle, without a trace of the domineering attitude he displayed in public.

Deng Chanyu looked up and took the wine glass. Her hand trembled slightly, and she almost spilled the wine. Looking at Lin Xuan's handsome face, her heart raced.

The two intertwined their arms and drank the nuptial wine.

As soon as the wine went down her throat, Deng Chanyu felt her face burning even hotter.

Lin Xuan took the empty cup from her hand and placed it on the table next to him. Then, he sat down next to Deng Chanyu and put his arm around her shoulder.

Deng Chanyu froze, instinctively trying to dodge. As a military woman, her body reacted faster than her mind. But Lin Xuan's arms were like iron clamps, firmly holding her in his embrace.

"What? General Deng, who was fearless on the battlefield, is now afraid of me?" Lin Xuan whispered teasingly in her ear.

Deng Chanyu bit her lip and retorted softly, "I'm not afraid... I'm just... not used to it."

Lin Xuan smiled and gently stroked her long hair. He knew that Deng Chanyu was a girl who appeared strong on the outside but actually needed someone to protect her deep down.

"From now on, with me here, you won't have to shoulder everything alone anymore. I'll take care of those bastards in Xiqi. You just need to be my wife in peace." Lin Xuan's sweet words flowed effortlessly.

Hearing these words, Deng Chanyu's defenses completely crumbled. From childhood to adulthood, all she had heard were her father's reprimands and the bugle calls from the military camp; no one had ever spoken to her so gently.

She leaned against Lin Xuan's chest, her eyes stinging a little.

"Husband..." Deng Chanyu closed her eyes and took the initiative to hug Lin Xuan's waist.

Lin Xuan stopped talking and directly lowered his head to kiss her lips.

The red candles flickered, and the temperature inside the tent gradually rose. Deng Chanyu's original warrior spirit melted into a pool of spring water under Lin Xuan's tender advances.

The two went to Wushan together, and the camp was filled with the enchanting beauty of spring.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Xuan suddenly heard the system's familiar mechanical notification sound in his mind.

"Ding! Detected that the host has completed an in-depth exchange with Deng Chanyu, the female immortal with a score of 92."

"Guaranteed win card is now active."

"Congratulations, host, Deng Chanyu has successfully conceived."

"Quest reward: Obtain the acquired merit treasure, Falling Star Bow."

Lin Xuan heard the notification sound and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips. This Falling Star Bow was a good thing; combined with Deng Chanyu's unerring throwing skills, it would definitely be a deadly weapon on the battlefield.

He held Deng Chanyu, who had fallen into a deep sleep from exhaustion, closed his eyes, and prepared to get some rest.
