Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Distorting Right and Wrong

Ming Ze said, “Senior Brother’s hard work deserves nothing less than the top prize!”

Ming Qing replied grandly, “With such praise from my junior brothers, I shall accept it without humility!”

As he spoke, someone stepped forward, crouching in front of Xia Wenjin. Like a hunter admiring his prized prey, he wasn’t in a rush, choosing instead to savor the moment.

However, this appreciation was only temporary.

Xia Wenjin’s appearance left him drooling with desire. Mere admiring could not satisfy his vile intentions.

He glanced at his junior brothers with a grin, “Since you insist, I’ll indulge myself first!” With that, he reached out to touch Xia Wenjin’s delicate, porcelain-like face.

Arrogant, vile, malicious, filthy…

Xia Wenjin already knew the secret of seeking children in this temple.

Now, with Ming Qing extending his filthy hand in front of her, the pretending-to-sleep Xia Wenjin could no longer endure.

Suddenly, she reached out, her left hand grabbing that filthy hand, while her right elbow struck powerfully forward. Caught off guard, the three of them failed to account for the fact that their incense had been ineffective, and the woman before them was not asleep.

Xia Wenjin showed no mercy. Firstly, there were three of them here, and eighteen monks guarding the courtyard outside. Secondly, she was filled with hatred, wanting to eradicate someone like Ming Qing who had harmed countless women.

Ming Qing was also a martial artist. Sensing danger, he immediately retreated, but Xia Wenjin had gained the upper hand. With a scream, Ming Qing’s entire arm was broken by Xia Wenjin.

With this strike, the grass was beaten, and the snake was startled.

Ming Qing, Ming Ze, and Ming Xi coordinated seamlessly, standing in a formation to trap Xia Wenjin in the middle.

What they thought was a lamb was now revealed to be a cunning fox, and their eyes gleamed with malice.

Yet beneath those malicious gleams lay an unabated sinister intent, clearly planning how to torment Xia Wenjin after capturing her.

Ming Qing, with one broken arm, winced in pain, adjusting his broken limb, his face darkened in embarrassment as his two junior brothers looked on.

Ming Ze said sinisterly, “Who would’ve thought it was a cat with sharp claws? This is interesting. Every time they come, they’re like dead bodies, but this time it’s a lively one!”

Xia Wenjin scolded angrily, “How can you, as members of the Buddhist Sect, be so shameless?”

Ming Xi sneered, “Little beauty, aren’t you here to seek children? Probably because your husband is useless. No matter how good the place is, without seeds, no sprouts will grow, right? My Senior Brother Chief, Brother West Hall, and I are among the most powerful figures in Shian Temple. With us personally sowing seeds, how could you not give birth to a plump son?”

The fact that Xia Wenjin wasn’t asleep surprised them, but they were not worried.

After all, they were three strong men, and Xia Wenjin was just a weak woman.

Even though she broke Ming Qing’s arm unexpectedly, it was only because she caught them off guard. With her frail arms and legs, what else could she do?

Xia Wenjin accused, “Shameless! How can you be so vile?”

Ming Ze laughed, “You are too naive, young lady. How is this vile? When you’re in distress, us three monk brothers will spare no effort to assist — that’s saving the world with great compassion. To relieve your suffering, we forsake our bodies, how noble. Yet, you misunderstand us, it truly leaves one feeling cold!”

Ming Xi chuckled from the side, “Think about why you came. You’re here to seek children. Since you have no children, your husband plans to take a concubine. Did you ever consider, why should a man, under the pretext of having no children, be justified in having multiple wives while you cannot have several husbands? Never thought of it? What will your position be if your husband marries a concubine and she gives birth to a child?”

Ming Ze and Ming Xi exchanged a knowing glance and laughed, “Indeed, your husband’s heart has strayed, why not go with the flow and enjoy the pleasures of the world? Instead of your husband and another woman having a child, why not bear one yourself? We three brothers promise to serve you comfortably. If you find the enlightenment from us, and have a son or daughter, it not only prevents your husband from taking concubines but also strengthens your status as the First Wife. Even if you have a child, we monks would never seek out the child to acknowledge our kinship. Is there anything more secure than this?”

Ming Qing, having fixed his arm, added, “After a few nights of joy, we go our separate ways. This affair only presents benefits with no harm to you, clearly you’re a clever one, you must see the advantages in this?”

Xia Wenjin understood now that perhaps those women before, who woke the next day enraged, were won over by their crooked logic.

They understood the mindset of those seeking children, aiming not just to become a mother, but also to hold onto their husband’s heart. They stirred resentment and lured with benefits. Set in such an environment, most either succumbed, or if it was too late, they were left to swallow the bitter pill.

Xia Wenjin reflected on her clash with Ming Qing. His reaction was quick; he was a martial artist, his skills not weak.

Ming Ze and Ming Xi must also know martial arts. Their current arrogance led them to underestimate her, thus not yet calling the monks outside.

Then, she resolved to go all out!

With a smile blooming on her face, Xia Wenjin said, “So the three masters really have my best interests at heart?”

She already possessed stunning beauty, and with this smile, it was like a hundred flowers blossoming, her eyes bursting with fireworks, dazzling and entrancing, impossible to look away from.

The three men thought Xia Wenjin had changed her mind, their hearts relaxed, and they were secretly delighted.

Though they planned to succeed tonight, having her willingly was far more satisfying than forcing her.

Ming Xi nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, yes, the little lady finally understands. What we just said came from the heart! Rather than relying on gods and fearing concubines, why not take fate into your own hands?”

Ming Ze interjected, guidingly, “Worst case, even if you spent a passionate night with us and didn’t conceive, wouldn’t you still have enjoyed it? There’s no need to feel bad or worried, should your husband enjoy himself with others yet not permit you the same with other men?”

Listen to this, what shamelessness!

Xia Wenjin swallowed her disgust and said, “If that’s the case, why don’t the other two leave first, I want to be one-on-one!”

Could it be she was persuaded? The three men rejoiced, Ming Ze said, “Senior Brother, please go ahead, we’ll join later!”

The two left the room happily, even closing the door.

Despite his recently mended arm still aching, Ming Qing smiled, “Little lady, here I come!”
