With the proper containment of Ink completed, the battle that raged on for over a million years, finally came to an end. It was time for the 3000 worlds to celebrate. There was, of course, a short celebration among the deployed forces, but once that was over everyone returned home.
~ Star Boundary ~
In High Heaven Palace's massive main hall, all of my parents, and siblings were present, my wives, were also there. My wives were holding back to make room for proper introductions. Oddly enough there were some other friends of the family here, to include Mu, who had two younger women next to her, both incredibly eager.
I presented myself to my parents Yang Kai, and Su Yan. "Father, Mother, please, I beg for your forgiveness-"
Yang Kai shook his head knowing that this was just my way of being formal. "Stop with that, there's no way you could have known you'd actually break out of Hell. Even if it is something you'd claimed to do if the need arose."
I let out a nervous chuckle, rubbing the back of my head. "Even so, I hadn't grown strong enough to break out until 2 years after Ink. This resulted in a precarious situation…"
"You shouldn't blame yourself for that son. I doubt anyone would have been able to pull that off. Besides… Ink breaking out of that seal was supposed to be impossible. Once he did it, it gave me hope that you hadn't actually died."
"Father, I-"
"No, those words need not be spoken. Instead, let me say it this way…" He cleared his throat. "Welcome home, my son."
Su Yan, crying, managed to speak up. "Welcome home, Leiji."
I smiled. "I'm home." I took a breath, and then began to explain the events of my side. "... And that is how I came to accept Jiang Yanmei as my 13th wife."
Yang Kai rubbed his chin in thought, and while he did Yu Ru Meng spoke up with enthusiasm. "FINALLY! It's about time you got yourself a demon wife."
The rest of my family laughed. Su Yan stood up, walked over, and knelt down to our level. She wrapped us in a warm hug. "Thank you, because of you, I'll be able to see my baby's babies. A future I thought lost, has been found."
"Mother, you don't have to thank me. It's all my husband's ability that drew me to him. The way he wields that spear is just simply amazing. How it penetrates. And how he wields his hammer, oh my, the pounding." Yanmei blushed, smirking, with a slow lick of her lips. "Either way I explain it… He is amazing."
Yang Kai laughed. "Alright, I see why my son accepted you, and I agree, you've earned your place. Though, I think you should temper the explanation of things that happened behind closed doors, you'll make your new sisters overeager. It has been 500 years, you can't blame them…" He then nodded towards Mu.
Mu stepped forward a little, not too much, and Su Yan went back to her throne of the head wife. "Yang Leiji, due to your efforts I was able to return to life, and make a second attempt at dealing with my past mistake-"
"You don't have to worry about that too much, Senior Mu, I had my own reasons for doing it. A give and take, let's call it."
"Very well, however, once I had returned, I decided to continue my bloodline, continuing it with the help of my friends from long ago. I then bore one beautiful daughter with Cang, unfortunately, that seemed to be his limit after having lived for so long. With this plight, I then bore another daughter, sired by Shi. However, his cultivation method quickly barred him from continuing, no matter how hard we tried. Even your medicine didn't work on them."
"Woah, that must be some serious ailments you two have…" I said, looking into it. "Well, those are a couple of difficult ailments the two of you have. It's no wonder why you couldn't continue to conceive. I don't think I can fix these ones, not with my power in its current state. A good portion of it is tied up dealing with Ink. Do forgive me."
Cang laughed, pulling on his beard. "No need to worry, my daughter is already a miracle child. And besides, that's not the reason why Mu is beating around the bush. But then again, I'm sure you already know that."
I nodded. "Indeed I do. However, I have a minimum requirement, so until that has been reached, even my father can't force a marriage upon me… That was our agreement."
Mu's Eldest daughter took a step forward. "I had heard about that rule of yours, having a husband that has preset boundaries is definitely reassuring. I just wonder if you can really satisfy me." A serious and bold look appeared on her face.
"Mu Li Jing! That's rude."
I chuckled. "So that's your way of proving it? You're close, but let's see how willing you are… Or are you scared?"
'Scared? Ha! After all the hyped up talk of my sister wives, I'm way more interested than anything else." She stormed forward. "Like it or not, you're going to be inside me by the end of the day."
"Sister, isn't that a bit, well, much?" The younger sister walked forward with a confident stride. "Saying things like that is fine and all, but it's not the best now is it?"
"Oh? And what does my little sister Mu Meilin think is a better way to go about it?"
Mu Meilin giggled, and then smirked. "Watch and learn, big sister, this is how it's done." She then pressed her lips against mine and began a rather passionate, lovers kiss with full tongue.
"Sister! You've had enough, it's my turn now."
Once Mu Meilin was done, she slurped up the saliva bridged with a smile. "Husband, that was amazing."
Yang Kai laughed, and decided to speak up right away. "Son, I don't care what you say now, I'm going to make you take these two as your 14th and 15th wives." He smirked. "Now, let us throw a massive welcome home, a wedding, and celebration of the war's end!"
There was a lot behind his words, and it meant a lot to me, however, I couldn't just let them go on thinking the war was completely over… Though, I got the sense that Yang Kai knew it already.
