175: Chapter 175 Let's Cultivate Well

"No, I definitely don't want to face that kind of situation. I must become stronger and stronger."

Ye Xuan couldn't help but shudder. Although having many wives in the future was a good thing, the problem was that he couldn't beat them...

Just thinking about this, Ye Xuan felt that he had to quickly raise his strength, otherwise it would be very difficult to be the head of the household in the future.

A harem battlefield was truly a major trouble.

"Leng Qianming, you guy actually want to send Elder Leng Ku to assassinate me? No way, is that really necessary? Could it be that something happened again on Little Fatty Murong's side? It seems Leng Qianming might know that I spanked his fiancée's butt."

Ye Xuan thought to himself, though he also found it somewhat amusing.

"Sending a King Profound Realm puppet to assassinate me? I might as well make an example of you."

With a thought, Ye Xuan retrieved the Huangxuan Realm puppet hidden inside his spirit ring. Using its powerful strength, it hid in the void, keeping its domain open at all times to prevent Elder Leng Ku's assassination.

"Not a bad toy. Is this something crafted using a Saint Realm puppet? Interesting. It seems you have a great backer behind you."

At this moment, a slightly surprised voice echoed from Ye Xuan's consciousness.

"It's my master. She was worried that I would encounter life-and-death enemies while traveling, so she specially refined this puppet for me."

Being questioned by Xian Linglong, the indescribable, ethereal face of his master couldn't help but flash through Ye Xuan's mind, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Oh? It seems your master is a female cultivator!"

Seeing the expression on Ye Xuan's face, Xian Linglong instantly understood.

"Of course. She is the most beautiful female cultivator in this world, and her strength is not below that of a Supreme."

Speaking of Master Shen Xi, Ye Xuan naturally had a lot to say. For his sake, his master had even gone to the Lei Continent to demand the zixiao divine thunder core, fighting to a draw against two Supreme experts.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. A Saint Profound Realm confronting an Di Xuan Realm? Your master is indeed quite impressive. But looking at you, it seems you like your own master..."

Xian Linglong immediately understood the meaning behind Ye Xuan's words, and she didn't even want to continue further.

A romance between master and disciple, huh?

"Sister Linglong, don't talk nonsense. I am very filial to my master. It's not as improper as you say..."

Ye Xuan began to quibble—no, he wanted to correct Xian Linglong's rather improper line of thought.

"Oh? I see that even if you don't like her yet, you will soon. Did you really think you could hide your little thoughts from this Empress?"

Within the exquisite painting, Xian Linglong, dressed in white, cold and noble, couldn't help but cover her red lips with her delicate hand. A rare smile spread across her face, a beauty that could no longer be described by anything in the mortal world.

"Nonsense... I don't, I really don't!"

"Still being stubborn? So what if you like your own master? As long as you become stronger and stronger in the future, even if the whole world knows, it doesn't mean anyone would dare to gossip."

"Besides, I am also very interested in a romance between master and disciple. Maybe I will even help you!"

Xian Linglong's words were filled with sincerity, making Ye Xuan see a glimmer of hope in his daze, but he quickly regained his clarity.

"Wow, Sister Linglong is amazing! Sister Linglong is mighty! Sister Linglong is invincible!"

Seeing that the atmosphere had reached this point, Ye Xuan knew he had to praise her. But truth be told, with an Empress sister whose strength had reached the Shen Xuan Realm protecting him, his sense of security was incredibly high.

"Heh, at least you're sensible, kid. I once dominated an entire era in ancient times!"

Having rarely awakened and met a kid with great fortune, Xian Linglong couldn't help but let out a crisp and pleasant laugh.

"By the way, Sister Linglong, since you are an Emperor from ancient times, do you know an ancient Alchemy Emperor named Xinghe?"

Taking advantage of Xian Linglong's good mood, Ye Xuan quickly asked about the remnant soul of the ancient Alchemy Emperor Xinghe.

"Oh? Alchemy Emperor Xinghe? Why, are you also interested in such an expert from the ancient era?"

Xian Linglong's interest was also piqued, her voice filled with laziness, as if she didn't care about Xinghe at all.

"Well, I was fortunate enough to obtain a profound technique that Alchemy Emperor Xinghe once cultivated, which was compiled by Xinghe himself."

Ye Xuan lied through his teeth, not wanting to tell Xian Linglong about Xinghe's remnant soul being inside the jade pendant yet.

After all, in Xinghe's destiny, Xian Linglong was his greatest opportunity. If Xinghe's protagonist luck flared up again, it would be troublesome.

Things that hadn't happened yet could always change, so Ye Xuan didn't want to miss this crucial point.

What if they had a very good relationship? What if Xian Linglong asked him to release the remnant soul of Alchemy Emperor Xinghe?

"Xinghe, huh? He was considered a relatively famous Alchemy Emperor in the ancient era, but that guy's actions were disliked by the world. He would stop at nothing to achieve his goals."

"Hehe, speaking of which, I had quite a feud with that Xinghe. Back then, after failing to pursue me, he sent me a ninth-grade Saint Face Pill, which hid an ancient curse—Fairy Falling to the Mortal Dust. Did he really think he could hide that from me?"

"Because of this, Xinghe was hunted down by my pursuers. I heard that even two-thirds of his soul was obliterated, and his whereabouts became unknown..."

At the mention of Xinghe, the smile in Xian Linglong's eyes faded quite a bit, and a cold killing intent rose from the depths of her heart, making Ye Xuan feel his consciousness turn several degrees colder.

"Ah? Xinghe was actually Sister Linglong's pursuer? And he even wanted to curse Sister Linglong? Sister Linglong should have killed that Xinghe on the spot back then!"

Ye Xuan felt a lot more relieved. If Xinghe had a very good relationship with Sister Linglong, then he absolutely, positively could not tell Sister Linglong about Xinghe's remnant soul.

Otherwise, who knew what this domineering Sister Linglong might do.

"Then, I'm very curious. A peerless sister like Sister Linglong has so many pursuers, but did you never have a Dao companion?"

"The immortal path is beneath my feet, and my heart is set on pursuing the immortal path while guarding the borders of the Shenwu Continent. How could I pursue romantic entanglements?"

Xian Linglong said calmly, her exquisite and beautiful face filled with aloofness.

"Wow, Sister Linglong's experiences in the ancient era were truly wonderful. To protect the people, you would rather be alone."

Ye Xuan praised her again, and in his heart, he began to feel a strange sense of admiration and pity for this Empress sister.

"Kid Ye, cultivate well. If you want longevity and eternal immortality, you can't do it without strength."

Xian Linglong's slightly aloof voice echoed from his consciousness, making Ye Xuan feel an endless desolation.

Everyone was dead—family, friends, beauties—leaving only herself alone in the world.

"Don't worry, Sister Linglong. In the future, I will become strong enough to always stay by your side!" Ye Xuan murmured softly.

"Heh, is that so, kid? Then I shall wait and see."

As if hearing an impossible goal, Xian Linglong couldn't help but let out that cheerful laughter from before once again.
