17: The male protagonist, Hong Wen, visits the An family.

After reading the information on the Jade Slip, An Yuyao's beautiful eyes flickered, and her mood improved significantly.

This was a message of greeting sent by her father and mother.

In addition to asking about her safety, they also asked her to return home for a visit.

“Why don't I invite Junior Brother Su Yun to my house as a guest!”

At that moment, An Yuyao thought of a great idea.

The Family treasury had many treasures.

She would let Su Yun pick a few items then to repay him for saving her life.

Thinking of this, An Yuyao immediately got up and left her Immortal Cave to find Su Yun.

However, as she passed the mirror inside the Immortal Cave, she noticed her hair was a bit messy and her clothes had several holes from the previous battle, making her look somewhat disheveled.

“Ah, I need to change my clothes and tidy up my appearance.”

An Yuyao's face flushed slightly as she hurriedly returned to her bedside.

She took out a spare set of clothes from her Storage Ring and changed into them.

Then, she circulated a Spell to clean away the stains covering her body.

Finally, she carefully used her spiritual power to tidy her hair, tying it back into twin ponytails.

“Mm, this is about right.”

An Yuyao stood in front of the mirror, carefully examining her appearance.

Once she felt everything was fine, she left the Immortal Cave to find Su Yun... Just as Su Yun stepped out of his residence, he noticed a golden light flying toward him from a distance.

The golden light was very fast and arrived before him in a few moments.

Su Yun looked closely—wasn't this An Yuyao?

An Yuyao was wearing a dress similar to the one she had on when he first saw her.

However, the color of the dress she wore this time was more elegant and simple, highlighting a refined temperament.

Her golden twin ponytails draped over her fair, tender shoulders.

Her pale golden eyebrows matched her golden eyes.

It gave off the aura of a noble Young Miss.

Seeing Su Yun staring straight at her, An Yuyao felt a bit embarrassed. Remembering her purpose for finding him, she spoke directly:

“Junior Brother Su Yun, are you free? I would like to invite you to my Family's home as a guest.”

After saying this, An Yuyao suddenly felt a bit nervous, her hands restlessly clutching the hem of her dress.

“Sure.”

Hearing such a good thing, Su Yun agreed immediately.

It just so happened that he also needed to go out to find new Opportunities to accumulate more Luck Points.

Now that An Yuyao was inviting him to her home, it was a great chance.

According to the laws governing a female protagonist, her Family would definitely have all sorts of Opportunities; it was well worth a trip.

Plus, traveling with a beauty was a pleasant thing; it would be foolish to refuse.

Seeing Su Yun agree, a faint smile appeared on An Yuyao's face.

Immediately afterward, she took out a spirit sword from her Storage Ring and flew into the air once more.

As for why she didn't just take out a spirit boat, it was because spirit boats couldn't be used within the Sect; they could only be used after leaving.

When they went on the Sect mission last time, they had also gathered outside the Sect.

“Junior Brother Su Yun, hurry and keep up.”

Seeing this, Su Yun also took out that Low Grade spirit sword from his Storage Pouch, his figure flashing as he stood upon the sword.

He followed An Yuyao, flying away on his sword.

Once outside the Sect, the two of them boarded a spirit boat and flew toward Mystic Spirit City, where the An Family was located.

What the two didn't notice was someone dressed in Outer Sect Disciple clothing surreptitiously following them.

The pursuit only stopped after they transferred to the spirit boat.

The person tracking them was Zhang Tian.

Ever since he discovered his fiancée was very close to some pretty boy, he had begun investigating that boy's identity.

After asking around, he learned that the pretty boy, Su Yun, had just like him recently passed the Outer Sect Disciple examination to join the Outer Sect.

The reason he saw the two of them getting off the spirit boat together so intimately before was that they had encountered a powerful enemy while completing a Sect mission.

After several teammates died, only the two of them remained; it wasn't because An Yuyao had taken a liking to Su Yun.

He only breathed a sigh of relief after learning the reason.

But when he wanted to go find An Yuyao to apologize, before he even reached the Immortal Cave, he saw An Yuyao come out and fly toward the Outer Sect Disciple residences on her sword.

Initially, he was a bit excited, thinking An Yuyao was looking for him, and intended to rush back immediately to meet her.

But to his surprise, An Yuyao flew directly to Su Yun's residence; Zhang Tian instantly felt his heart turn cold.

He could only watch helplessly as Su Yun and An Yuyao flew outside the Sect together and then left on a spirit boat.

“Damn it, Su Yun, I will definitely kill you!”

Watching the spirit boat fly further and further away, Zhang Tian finally saw red, his hatred for Su Yun intensifying several times over.

What he didn't realize was that a faint blackness appeared within the Qi in his body.

But this black Qi quickly vanished, as if nothing had happened... Outside Mystic Spirit City, a spirit boat slowly descended.

Two people stepped off the spirit boat.

One was a strikingly handsome youth, and the other was a beautiful Young Miss with a noble temperament.

The Cultivators passing through the city gates immediately began whispering among themselves upon seeing them.

“These two are truly a well-matched couple!”

“That sister is so beautiful, I really want to be her Dao Companion.”

“Don't you think this young girl looks a bit familiar?”

“Oh right, it's like I've seen her somewhere before.”

“Blonde hair, golden eyes—isn't this the Young Miss of the An Family?”

“I heard she joined the Xuanji Sect and became an Inner Sect Disciple. She's really impressive.”

“That youth couldn't be the Dao Companion she found, could he? No way!”

Hearing the discussions of those around her, An Yuyao couldn't help but blush, stealing a glance at Su Yun.

Su Yun, however, didn't care about the surrounding gossip; he was carefully observing the appearance of Mystic Spirit City.

Mystic Spirit City was a relatively Advanced cultivation city with quite a lot of Cultivators inside.

Thus, the entire city appeared quite high-end and grand; the city gates were built from pure white jade stones.

Faint formation patterns appeared on the city walls; these were clearly the patterns of a City-Protecting Array.

Generally speaking, only relatively Advanced cultivation cities possessed this kind of City-Protecting Array.

This was because the resources required to construct such a large-scale City-Protecting Array were quite substantial.

Seeing Su Yun looking at the formation patterns with curiosity, An Yuyao introduced them with some pride:

“Junior Brother Su Yun, a large part of the City-Protecting Array you see was built by my An Family!”

“Senior Sister An, your Family is quite impressive.”

“Heehee, not really.

Mystic Spirit City used to have three major families: the Wang Family, the An Family, and the Zhang Family that was destroyed not long ago.

Our An Family is considered the bottom of the pile.”

Hearing Su Yun's praise for her Family, An Yuyao felt a bit embarrassed and shyly turned her head away, not daring to look at him.

“Let's not talk about that. Junior Brother Su Yun, I'll take you to the An Family first!”

After speaking, An Yuyao shrunk the spirit boat and put it back into her Storage Ring, then walked straight into the city gate.

Seeing An Yuyao's shy expression, Su Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry; he hadn't expected An Yuyao to be so easily embarrassed.

When he first met her, he thought she was the tsundere Young Miss type, but it turned out she was the shy Young Miss type.

Shaking his head, Su Yun ended his stray thoughts and followed An Yuyao through the city gate.
