107: Chapter 107 Fairy: My wife at home is a little over a billion!

"Fellow Daoist..." She raised her eyes, her gaze carrying a hint of probing.

"Just now, you mentioned that you could refine some Medicinal Pills for me. Could it be that you are also an Alchemist?"

Ye Changge smiled slightly, not denying it.

Xiao Caiyue looked at him.

Her younger sister had also mentioned that a very formidable Alchemist had come to their shop, and he treated her very well.

She thought to herself, it couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?

She looked at those eyes opposite her, whose brilliance could not be concealed even by the mask, and suddenly spoke:

"Fellow Daoist, this shouldn't be your true appearance, right?"

Ye Changge heard this and chuckled.

He raised his hand, picked up the half-cooled tea on the table, and drained it in one gulp.

At the same time, the Spiritual Artifact robe on his body rippled gently like water, and that plain, unremarkable face gradually blurred and reshaped.

Amidst the soft sound of the teacup returning to the table, a face with sword-like brows, star-like eyes, and a dashing, handsome appearance was revealed before her without any concealment.

Xiao Caiyue's breath hitched slightly.

She had practiced the Dao for a long time and had seen countless heroes and talented men, priding herself on never being moved by mere appearances.

But at this moment, when she truly saw this face clearly, she had to admit—

This was the most handsome man she had ever seen.

It was not the kind of delicate beauty that bordered on feminine, but a gentle, jade-like demeanor that carried an air of heroism.

His brows were like distant mountains, his eyes like stars, his nose bridge was high, and his lip line was soft yet firm.

What made her heartbeat even more erratic was the faint, lingering aura about him—

Like the warm sun on a spring afternoon, like the first blooming peach blossoms, making her want to draw closer involuntarily.

She naturally did not know this was the effect of the "peach blossom luck gu worm".

She only felt that with this person standing here, the light in the entire room seemed to brighten a little.

Ye Changge put away the transformation of his robe and stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm but carrying a trace of imperceptible nervousness.

— — Was he being a bit calculating?

Looking at Xiao Caiyue's slightly flushed cheeks and her slightly dazed eyes, a trace of self-mockery flashed through his heart.

But upon further thought, single female Cultivators like Xiao Caiyue, who were both talented and virtuous with deep attainments in Formation, could not be found in all of Qingxuan Immortal City.

Since he had encountered her, he had to win her over no matter what.

What was a little pride compared to that?

He took a step forward, bowed, and spoke in a clear and solemn voice:

"I am the Old Ancestor of the Ye Family of Longmai Mountain, Ye Changge. Hiding my identity earlier was truly because the Immortal City is crowded with many eyes, not because I intended to deceive you, Fairy."

He raised his eyes, looking directly into those autumn-water-like bright eyes that still carried a daze.

"Today, I reveal my true face for only one reason—I, Ye, sincerely wish to become Dao Companions with Miss Caiyue and study the Dao of Longevity together."

Xiao Caiyue looked at him blankly.

Looking into those clear, calm eyes, she spoke directly:

"...Fellow Daoist."

She spoke, her voice soft, yet carrying a rare seriousness.

"I agree."

Ye Changge was stunned.

"...So fast?"

He was uncharacteristically dumbfounded and blurted it out subconsciously.

Although he was somewhat confident in his appearance, he also knew that for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with a steady Heart-Nature and worldly experience like Xiao Caiyue,

appearance was merely a finishing touch, and it should never be the key to making a decision.

Xiao Caiyue saw his stunned expression and instead smiled lightly.

She covered her mouth with her sleeve, her eyes and brows tinged with a hint of shyness, but also with a sense of relief after putting down a heavy burden.

"Fellow Daoist, do not be alarmed," she said softly. "There is a reason why I agreed so decisively."

She paused, lowered her eyelids, and her voice became even softer:

"My Lifespan only has one year left."

Ye Changge was silent.

"In this year, I have thought of countless ways. I have sought famous doctors, searched for Spirit Medicine, and even asked people to inquire at the Immortal Mountains of the East Sea if there were any rare treasures to extend one's Lifespan. I have tried everything I could."

She looked up at Ye Changge, her eyes slightly red, but a faint smile played on her lips.

"Fellow Daoist, you are the first person in this century to truly put forward a feasible method and be willing to damage your own Origin to save me."

"Are you not afraid that I am some evil Cultivator who specializes in harvesting women?"

Ye Changge laughed.

She paused.

"If you truly were an evil Cultivator who harvests women... as long as you could save Caiyue's life, I would be willing to serve you day and night."

She spoke calmly.

Ye Changge was silent.

He looked at the dignified and gentle woman in blue before him, who was now slightly blushing, and a complex emotion suddenly welled up in his heart.

She was not stupid.

She was just too clear-headed.

Clearly knowing that she had little time left, clearly knowing how rare the opportunity before her was, and clearly knowing—that this was the only time in her life someone was willing to pay such a price for her.

That was why she did not hesitate.

Because she had no capital to hesitate.

Ye Changge sighed softly.

He thought for a moment and decided to clarify things.

"Fairy," he softened his tone, "there are some things I must make clear to you."

Xiao Caiyue looked up at him, her gaze gentle and calm.

Ye Changge met her gaze, trying his best to make his tone appear calm:

"In my home... the number of my wives and concubines is a little bit high."

He paused and added:

After he finished speaking, he watched Xiao Caiyue quietly, waiting for her reaction.

Xiao Caiyue did not speak immediately.

She listened quietly, with no obvious emotional fluctuations on her face.

A moment later, she nodded gently:

"It doesn't matter."

Ye Changge was slightly stunned.

Xiao Caiyue looked up at him, her gaze clear and calm:

"Caiyue is not the type of person to be jealous."

She paused, her voice still gentle:

"In the Cultivation World, the strong are respected. Fellow Daoist, you are not yet thirty, yet you have already achieved Foundation Establishment, possess the foundation of the Longmai Mountain, and have many wives, concubines, and numerous descendants; this is inherently a manifestation of your strength and Luck."

Her tone was calm, as if she were just stating an ordinary fact:

"Caiyue is neither a person of outstanding talent nor a person of devastating beauty. Being favored by you is already a great fortune of three lifetimes. How could I develop such unnecessary jealousy just because you have many wives and concubines?"

She lowered her eyes slightly, her fingertips gently brushing over the exquisite flowing cloud pattern on her cuffs:

"Moreover..."

She paused, her voice becoming slightly quieter:

"Fellow Daoist, you mentioned earlier that if Caiyue is willing to marry you, you will treat me with the rites of a primary wife and treat me equally with the other ladies in your home."

She raised her eyes, her gaze brimming with emotion:

"With those words from you, Caiyue is content."

She was a smart person.

When the other party said he had many wives and concubines, there were no ripples in her heart; after all, such things were considered common.

But this sincerity still made her feel favorably towards him.

Ye Changge looked at her and said:

"Since you have said so, Fellow Daoist, I will definitely put your mind at ease."

"You can draft a Heart Demon contract, and after I review it and find no errors, I can sign it."

Ye Changge knew that she was not a simple woman.

It was just that they currently had a transaction based on interests.

That was why they had come together.

He did not expect her to fall for him just because they had met a few times.

All he wanted was a chance.
