Cultivating Immortality on Someone Else's Dime, With Boundless Power [Matriarchy]

- Lan Mingjin was the renowned Immortal Venerable Jinhua of the cultivation world. Everything she ate, wore, and used was exquisite, but an accident struck while she was undergoing her tribulation. The lightning left her looking like a beggar, and there wasn't a trace of spiritual energy left in her dantian. Just as she was about to examine her injuries, a handsome young man came running over and rescued her without hesitation. She was touched by his kindness and generosity, and began considering how to repay him once she recovered. But she never imagined that he had saved her only to find himself a nominal wife, with the intention of becoming a widower if she failed to recover. Lan Mingjin: "..." She ought to teach him a lesson. Before she could act, he saw how she was injured but still determined to carry on, and comforted her: "Don't worry. I'll take good care of you. It's fine if I live off you, too." Lan Mingjin: "...?" Wearing a feeble smile, she set a trap for him: "How long are you willing to let me live off you?" Seeing how badly injured she was, as if she might not live to see another day, the young man said pitifully, "As long as you're alive, I'll let you live off me for a day... at a time." Lan Mingjin: Oh, wow... Even the sect's founding ancestor wouldn't dare say something like that. "It's a deal... right?" The young man: "Don't worry. I keep my word." Later, Lan Mingjin said, "My clothes must be made of South Sea mermaid silk, I only drink top-grade spirit tea, and I use spirit veins instead of spirit stones. How many of those can you provide?" The young man: "?" Uh-oh. I just escaped the wolf's den and jumped straight into the tiger's lair. Somebody save me, somebody save me, somebody save me!
