92: Chapter 92 Jin Yuchan's Confidence
The flying boat slowly hovered above Duobao City.
Luo Yunkai stood on the deck of the flying boat, looking down at the entirety of Duobao City.
Duobao City was as large as ten Dan Cities combined.
The hundred-meter-long giant flying boat looked like a tiny skiff above Duobao City, so insignificant it was not worth mentioning.
A golden light shot out from the flying boat and merged into the Formation barrier above Duobao City.
It was like dropping a pebble into calm water, causing ripples to spread across the surface of the barrier.
Three breaths later, a massive opening appeared in the Formation barrier above Duobao City.
The hovering flying boat slowly descended, being swallowed whole.
Luo Yunkai looked up and saw the Formation barrier quickly seal itself after the flying boat completely entered, and then the light-curtain-like barrier vanished.
It was as if this barrier had never existed.
However, Luo Yunkai clearly saw that this Formation barrier was like an inverted bowl, completely enveloping the city whose area was as large as a province from his previous life.
Just thinking about the cost of maintaining this Formation made Luo Yunkai's scalp tingle.
Duobao City was truly Wealthy and powerful!
Lost in contemplation, the flying boat stopped at the docking bay of the Cloud Carriage Service.
Luo Yunkai was just about to disembark when he suddenly froze.
Five-colored spiritual power erupted from him, forming a five-colored spiritual power shield around his body, which exuded a profound aura.
However, in the next second.
His spiritual power shield, which had rendered Xiao Tian Su Xin completely helpless, shattered like a punctured balloon.
Before Luo Yunkai could react further, just as the word "Market" left his lips, he was forcibly swept away by a golden spiritual power.
The Market Guard on the flying boat appeared where Luo Yunkai had been an instant later, releasing his spiritual power and Divine Sense.
After investigating and discovering the source of the spiritual power that took Luo Yunkai, the faces of the Market Guards turned grave.
"Damn it, Inspector Di ordered us to protect him well!"
"This is beyond our jurisdiction, notify the Inspector of Duobao City!"
Among the Market Guards, the leader in the market district was a squad leader, the leader in a small city was a captain, and the leader in a large city was an Inspector.
The Inspector of Duobao City was not a member of the Di family, but he belonged to the Di faction.
Upon receiving the news, the bearded face of the Inspector of Duobao City was filled with distress.
"It's that woman who took him away. This is troublesome. She has plenty of Spirit Stones; we can't fight her. Sigh!"
He held no hope that Luo Yunkai's Spirit Stones could outweigh those of Jin Yuchan, that woman.
Jin Yuchan was above the clouds, pouring tea for Luo Yunkai as if entertaining a normal guest.
The jade bracelet on her wrist tilted as she poured the tea, emitting a crisp clinking sound.
Luo Yunkai's gaze swept over Jin Yuchan's face, showing a mix of surprise and a sense of inevitability.
Well, he couldn't recognize her at all!
He was certain he had never seen this face before.
With such a gaudy and opulent face, if he had seen her, he definitely wouldn't have forgotten.
After all, Old Freak Luo, in his past life, was so poor he robbed Cultivators everywhere. If he had encountered such a visibly rich woman, how could he resist latching onto a Wealthy woman!
If it weren't for the System's explicit guidance, telling him his son was in mortal danger in Duobao City, he would never have believed that the ordinary-looking Dao Companion couple from back then were the City Lord and Lady of Duobao City.
It made sense; if one is borrowing a seed, they shouldn't use their real face. It would be too awkward if an acquaintance recognized them.
Alright, now wasn't the time to dwell on these things. He needed to figure out why Jin Yuchan was seeking him out now.
His heart pounded!
This woman was a Nascent Soul Cultivator!
Luo Yunkai picked up the tea Jin Yuchan had poured, took a sip to calm his nerves.
However...
"What are you doing here?"
"Pfft!"
Luo Yunkai was so startled by Jin Yuchan's familiar tone that he choked on his water ungracefully.
Jin Yuchan didn't even frown. A faint spiritual power barrier rose before her, and not a single drop of tea splashed onto her.
Luo Yunkai slammed his teacup down with a 'bang,' not even bothering with his slightly damp beard, pointed at himself, then at Jin Yuchan, "I, I... you, you..."
Jin Yuchan chuckled. It wasn't a charming, flirtatious laugh, but the standard smile unique to merchants. "It seems my guess was right. You have the Bloodline Tracking Art."
Luo Yunkai froze, an incredible thought rising in his heart.
Back then, when she was borrowing a seed, did Jin Yuchan know about it?
Facing Luo Yunkai's bewildered and terrified eyes, Jin Yuchan nodded nonchalantly, "I know."
"As the Young Master of Duobao Tower, I have countless life-saving methods. Taking an antidote pill periodically to ensure its effectiveness against poison is also one of my self-protection measures."
Luo Yunkai's mouth opened and closed, "Then how did you still... let me sleep with you?"
Jin Yuchan's expression was casual. "He wanted me to bear a child, so I fulfilled his wish. Moreover, I needed a child too. Although I don't know why he was so confident that you could make me conceive, it didn't matter who it was, as long as I could get pregnant."
Luo Yunkai cursed her internally as a love-struck fool upon hearing the first half, but hearing the latter half, he felt something was off about this love-struck fool.
Jin Yuchan clearly didn't intend to let Luo Yunkai overthink it. She looked at Luo Yunkai with a formulaic smile, "Although Wealthy is your child, I don't want you to appear. Understand?"
Luo Yunkai's expression turned ugly.
Jin Yuchan smiled, "Don't misunderstand. I don't look down on you. It's just that, at least while Yi Shui is still alive, don't acknowledge Wealthy, okay?"
Luo Yunkai felt an irrefutable pressure emanating from the woman before him.
His expression turned cold. "You want to sacrifice your own son for the feelings of a man?"
Jin Yuchan retracted her smile and stared at Luo Yunkai, her expression extremely serious. "Yi Shui saved my life. I owe him a life. Wealthy can also be said to be brought by Yi Shui, so in a sense, Wealthy also owes him a life!"
"We all owe him, yet we are helpless regarding his health. I can only ensure that when his life ends, he is happy. Do you understand?"
Luo Yunkai deflated like a punctured ball.
A life-saving debt was even more unsolvable than being love-struck!
"Wealthy is my son!" Luo Yunkai squeezed out every word through gritted teeth, "It has nothing to do with Kong Yishui!"
"If you want to repay a debt, you damn..."
Luo Yunkai stood up abruptly against the pressure, his body bent like a fully drawn bow, his hands pressing heavily onto the expensive coffee table, emitting a dull 'boom.'
"Don't drag my son into this!"
After roaring this out, Luo Yunkai felt the pressure recede like a tide, and he gasped for air.
Jin Yuchan looked at Luo Yunkai with a complicated expression. "You are a good father. After Yi Shui passes away, I will tell Wealthy about his parentage, and you can acknowledge each other."
Luo Yunkai laughed in anger.
Did this woman not understand human language or what!
"I want to take my son away now!"
Jin Yuchan shook her head. "No, Yi Shui cannot handle any stimulation right now. He watches Wealthy very closely."
Luo Yunkai gritted his teeth. "I don't care if he dies! If he harms my son, and you, his mother, pretend not to see, I won't interfere, but I absolutely cannot stand by and watch Kong Yishui harm my son!"
Jin Yuchan raised an eyebrow. "So that's what you're worried about."
"Then you can rest assured. Kong Yishui wouldn't dare harm Wealthy."
Luo Yunkai looked at the utterly confident Jin Yuchan, and for a moment, he almost believed her.
If it weren't for the System's face constantly flashing red warnings.
