Yu Yue's feelings, Su family's son-in-law Lin Chen

Not long after Xiao Fan exited the Eternal Gate, the other Cultivators also emerged one after another.

Those among them who had gained something were beaming with joy and high spirits.

But more people remained silent, sighing.

Even more, their clothes were tattered, their limbs broken, as if they had walked through the gates of hell, their faces pale as gold leaf, their bodies like withered wood.

Some were happy, some were sorrowful.

As the Eternal Gate closed, all the various forces returned home.

...

Inside a treasure carriage of the Yaochi Immortal Palace's entourage.

Xiao Fan sat within, accompanied by Yu Yue.

"Young Master, were you not injured inside?" Yu Yue asked with concern.

She carefully examined Xiao Fan, fearing even the slightest scratch on him.

Seeing her worried expression, Xiao Fan stood up and turned around twice in front of her, indicating that he was fine.

"Who could injure me?" Xiao Fan laughed.

Seeing that he was unharmed, Yu Yue felt a little relieved, and with a smile on her face, she said, "It's good that you're fine."

Seeing the beauty's concern, Xiao Fan also felt a surge of tenderness. He reached out and pinched Yu Yue's delicate face, which was smooth and soft, her charming smile intoxicating.

Yu Yue's expression was a little unnatural; she had never experienced such an intimate gesture from Xiao Fan before, and for a moment, she was at a loss, only able to stand still, like an exquisite jade figure.

Her delicate cheeks were flushed, her face blushing, and Yu Yue's peach-blossom eyes were filled with affection. Just a glance at Xiao Fan, and she lowered her head and eyelids, not daring to meet his gaze.

Seeing her so moved and alluring, Xiao Fan was momentarily stunned. Yu Yue usually maintained the image of a dignified and aloof Palace Master in the Yaochi Immortal Palace.

Now, this shy, little womanly demeanor was too stark a contrast, leaving him somewhat dazed.

With a beauty by his side, how could he be timid?

He gently cupped Yu Yue's beautiful face, looking directly into her pure and shy eyes.

He only heard Yu Yue let out a soft moan.

Her body instantly stiffened and became unable to move, and her heart pounded like a startled deer, as if it were about to leap out.

So much so that she bit her lip tightly, not daring to utter a sound.

A long time passed.

Yu Yue's eyebrows trembled slightly, and she opened her beautiful eyes.

Her eyes were already filled with deep emotion, her nimble pupils shimmering with affectionate waves.

With a hint of shyness, she appeared even more alluring.

Xiao Fan felt comfortable. Without saying much, he gently pulled her into his embrace.

Yu Yue was also captivated, indulging in his embrace, her soft, delicate hands hooking around his strong waist, enjoying the tenderness.

In front of others, she was cold and unapproachable, her words deciding the life and death of countless beings.

In front of him, she was shy and adorable, like a little woman.

This feeling was truly wonderful!

Yu Yue sniffed with her delicate nose. She tilted her head slightly, looking at Xiao Fan with a hint of confusion.

"What's wrong? Do I have something on my face?" Seeing Yu Yue look at him like that, Xiao Fan asked in confusion.

From his embrace, Yu Yue took out a fine, white, almost imperceptible piece of fluff.

Holding it in her hand, she asked in confusion, "Young Master, why do you have a trace of a Yao Beast's aura on you?"

Xiao Fan looked closely at the fine white fluff and immediately understood what was going on.

Damn it, Miao Xiaoqing, what's wrong with you? Are you shedding cat hair?

"Uh, that..."

Before Xiao Fan could finish, Yu Yue said:

"Young Master, do you like Yao women? I happen to know a place with a Yao Kingdom. If you need, I can capture the Yao Race princess there for you."

Xiao Fan was originally worried that she would feel wronged, but he didn't expect her to say something like this, which caught him completely off guard.

"Yu Yue, are you serious?" Xiao Fan asked tentatively.

"Without Young Master, there would be no Yu Yue. Yu Yue only wishes for Young Master's happiness," she said earnestly.

This...

When you say it like that, it makes me feel like finding another woman would be a betrayal.

This damned guilt!!

After a moment of thought, Xiao Fan said:

"It's like this: In the Secret Realm of the Eternal Gate, I encountered a Secret Realm filled with Yao Beasts, and there was even a powerful Yao woman."

"I wanted to seize the Opportunity within, and that Yao woman naturally refused, so I fought with her and beat her until she fled in disarray."

"She ran too fast, and I couldn't catch her."

"I never thought that fellow would pretend to be weak and use a beauty trap on me. Of course, I remained unmoved and severely tortured her. This fluff probably fell off when that Yao woman struggled."

Xiao Fan said seriously, full of conviction.

Yu Yue, meanwhile, looked at him, listening to his words, nodding frequently to show she was listening intently.

"You're nodding, does that mean you believe me?" Xiao Fan asked.

Yu Yue's jade-like face held a smile, and her beautiful eyes twinkled playfully. She softly said, "Young Master, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Xiao Fan's heart skipped a beat. Damn, has my skill at lying to women declined?

Despite this, he said without changing his expression, "You decide what to say."

Yu Yue's eyes darted around, lively and beautiful. She said, "Yu Yue thinks two-tenths of it is true."

Xiao Fan was puzzled. He said, "What about the remaining eight-tenths?"

"The remaining eight-tenths are false, of course," Yu Yue said with a light chuckle, covering her mouth.

Xiao Fan's expression stiffened. Eight-tenths are false...

You're seeing through it but not saying it, right?

"Alright, I lied." He looked at Yu Yue's sweet smile and said somewhat awkwardly, "You're not mad, are you?"

Yu Yue, however, shook her head vigorously: "How could Yu Yue be mad at Young Master? Yu Yue thinks it's very good."

Ah?!

For a moment, Xiao Fan's mind couldn't process it.

Yu Yue continued, "Young Master, your choice to deceive me shows that you considered my feelings, proving that Young Master cares about Yu Yue in your heart."

"If you didn't care, why would you deceive me?"

"I only hope, Young Master, that no matter what kind of person you meet in the future, there will always be a place for us two sisters in your heart. That is enough."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan was speechless for a moment.

His gaze towards Yu Yue softened even more, and he felt a sense of indebtedness in his heart. How could such a gentle and considerate woman not be cherished?

"I promise, no one can replace your and Xin Xi's place in my heart," Xiao Fan said earnestly.

Yu Yue's smile grew even wider, a captivating smile that was truly beautiful.

The two chatted a lot more, and when the topic of gains from the Eternal Gate came up, Xiao Fan said:

"Oh, by the way, this is what I gained from the Eternal Gate. It's for you."

With that, he took out the bronze cauldron, along with the micro-dust world within it, and handed it to Yu Yue.

Yu Yue said, "Young Master, this is your gain. You should keep it."

"Take it." Xiao Fan took her soft hand, firmly placing it in hers. "I've lived in the Yaochi Immortal Palace for so long, always using the Immortal Stones of the Immortal Palace, and I've never given anything back. I'm not the kind of person who freeloads."

"Also, what's yours and mine? That's too formal. Take it."

Yu Yue looked at Xiao Fan with tender affection, nodded, and accepted it.

Besides the two items mentioned, he also gave Yu Yue one hundred thousand Immortal Veins, countless Immortal Stones, precious pills, divine materials, and one-tenth of a Legacy of magical techniques.

Yu Yue initially didn't pay much attention, but when she examined them closely, a hint of shock appeared on her delicate face. Even with her current powerful Realm, she had never seen so much wealth.

All the wealth of the entire Yaochi Immortal Palace combined wouldn't amount to even one percent of what Xiao Fan gave her!

"Young Master, this is too valuable."

"It's fine. Keep it. Just consider it my future expenses, given to you in advance," Xiao Fan said indifferently. This was true; for him, it was only a small portion of what he had.

The rest was kept to be distributed to others.

"Alright."

Yu Yue nodded and said.

Since Young Master trusts me so much, how can I refuse? Wouldn't that hurt his feelings?

When taking out the bronze cauldron, Xiao Fan naturally thought of the Seven-Colored Glazed Ice Heart. He currently didn't have the ability to handle this Ice Heart, so he could only let Yu Yue handle it.

"I obtained a treasure that I want to give to one of my younger sisters. Can you help me process it? She's still a mortal Cultivator and can't bear the powerful might of this Ice Heart."

"Oh, and I'm afraid there might be danger inside. If there's any consciousness or Divine Sense hidden within, please erase it as well."

He took out the Seven-Colored Glazed Ice Heart and handed it to Yu Yue.

"Sister? Young Master, do you have a sister?" Yu Yue took it, asking in confusion.

"Uh, that's a long story. A sworn sister, she's just my sworn sister," Xiao Fan said definitively.

"Okay, I'll handle it then." Yu Yue didn't press further.

If the time is right, Young Master will tell me himself.

If he actively tells me, it must be because he has something difficult to say, so how could I pry?

Taking the Seven-Colored Glazed Ice Heart, Yu Yue began to process this treasure. Her expression was very serious, fearing any mishap that might hinder Xiao Fan's matter.

This Seven-Colored Glazed Ice Heart was unfathomable. Yu Yue displayed her full strength, taking a month to barely suppress it. Her exquisite face was covered in fine sweat, and her complexion was also somewhat pale.

However, she finally let out a sigh of relief and, smiling, returned the Ice Heart to Xiao Fan.

"Young Master, it's done."

"This Ice Heart is indeed extraordinary. I've placed forty-nine spell seals on it. Each time the cultivation level increases by one stage, one layer will open."

"This way, the power can be released gradually, so as not to harm the user."

Upon receiving the Ice Heart, all the cold frost on it had completely disappeared, leaving only a slight coolness. Even a Nascent Soul Cultivator could successfully use it.

"You've worked hard."

Xiao Fan didn't pay too much attention to the Ice Heart. Priorities had to be clear. Now, he should care more about Yu Yue. He gently embraced Yu Yue, wiping the fine sweat from her face, letting her feel his tenderness.

Yu Yue closed her eyes, feeling a bit tired. Lying in his warm and strong embrace, she actually fell asleep, a sweet smile still on her lips, probably dreaming beautiful dreams.

...

"Fool, how dare you!"

"My sister is going to marry you, it's like a fresh flower stuck in cow dung."

A young man in luxurious brocade robes cursed at a fool with empty eyes and a dull expression.

But no matter how he insulted him, the fool never retorted a word, and from time to time, he would grin foolishly, saying inexplicable things.

"Damn it, how unlucky. Why is my sister so stubborn, insisting on getting engaged to this fool?"

He kicked the fool he was talking about, stomping heavily on his chest.

A surging force directly struck his heart. The fool actually spat out fresh blood and coughed heavily.

Cough, cough~

This young man in brocade robes couldn't bear to see his sister engaged to this fool, especially with his idiotic appearance. Wasn't this pushing his sister into a pit of fire?

He glanced around. There was no one around, and it was a dark and windy night.

As the saying goes, a dark and windy night is a night for murder!

Anger surged in his heart, and evil grew in his guts. He hardened his heart and kicked again violently.

With a thud, his heart burst.

"Hmph, good riddance."

With that, he walked away without looking back, leaving only a cold corpse.

Just after the young man in brocade robes left, the fresh blood that overflowed from the fool's mouth gradually soaked his body, and the blood stained an ancient jade pendant.

In an instant, the jade pendant emitted a green light, rushing into the fool's body.

The originally sunken chest bone miraculously healed.

His scattered pupils re-converged and became no longer dull, but rather bright and piercing.

"I'm not dead?"

Without any warning, he immediately began to shout loudly:

"Leng Yue, Zhao Hao, I regarded you as my beloved and my blood brother, yet you two secretly colluded, you adulterer and harlot, framing me! I will kill you!"

"Prepare to face my revenge, you adulterers!"

He sat up, digesting his memories.

"Lin Chen, the Su Family's live-in son-in-law, a born fool, an orphan taken in for good fortune."

"Just killed by his brother-in-law, Su Zhan..."

"A live-in son-in-law? An interesting beginning. What a refreshing Rebirth."

As if sensing the original owner's obsession in his body, he said solemnly:

"Don't worry, I will avenge you. I will make the person who killed you apologize to you!"

"After all, her sister has shown kindness to me. If I were to kill him, I would feel like I was repaying kindness with enmity."

After a while, he began to examine his current body.

"Born with a Waste (waste body), a chaotic Five Elements Spiritual Root, and still hasn't entered the Qi Refinement Stage."

Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help but sink.

But the next moment, he immediately beamed with joy.

And couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"A peerless Immortal Root, it's actually the supreme invisible Chaos Five Elements Root."

"Good!"

"Oh, there's something strange. It seems there's a broken small bowl hidden in my Dantian."

"How is that possible? I can't even see through it. What kind of treasure is this!"

...

Lin Chen returned to the Su Family, where the Su Family's matriarch pointed at his nose and cursed him as a good-for-nothing. She couldn't understand why her daughter would get engaged to him.

Lin Chen's attitude towards Madam Su's scolding was:

Endure!!

...

The Su Family servants all mocked him, and everyone called him a fool.

"Isn't this our foolish Young Master-in-law?"

"Fool is a fool, what Young Master-in-law? Our Su Family doesn't have such a Young Master-in-law."

"Hurry up and clean the dog kennel in the backyard."

To this, Lin Chen's attitude was:

Endure!

...

Su Zhan, the one who kicked Lin Chen to death, was even more furious when he saw Lin Chen standing alive in front of him!

Could it be that he didn't kick hard enough yesterday and failed to kill this fool?

"Fool, you live in the dog kennel over there. Get over there quickly, seeing you annoys me."

To Su Zhan, Lin Chen merely said indifferently:

"You kicked me. I will make you apologize to me!"

Su Zhan was stunned for a moment. He hadn't expected this fool to suddenly become intelligent.

And even dared to point at him and say such words.

This added fuel to his already raging anger!

Slap!

Slap!

Su Zhan gave him a backhand slap and a forehand slap across both his cheeks, making a loud smacking sound.

"You useless piece of trash, who gave you the courage to speak to me like that?"

"Get out!"

With that, Su Zhan kicked him in the lower abdomen, sending him flying ten zhang away, landing squarely in the dog kennel.

To this, Lin Chen's attitude was:

Endure!

Not only endure, but he was even somewhat grateful. If it weren't for this brother-in-law killing the fool, he wouldn't have been able to Rebirth into this body.

He was like a parent to him, in a sense.

"For your sister's sake, I'll spare your life and let you live to apologize to me," Lin Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself.

...

Su Zhan's sister, who was Lin Chen's fiancée, came over. Hearing that Lin Chen's mind had returned to normal, she felt quite relieved.

"I'm sorry for making you my shield."

"We are husband and wife in name only. I just didn't want to marry someone else as a tool for alliance."

"Don't worry, you can marry whoever you want. After the storm subsides, I'll give you a sum of money, and you can go wherever you want."

"My heart is set on the Dao, seeking eternal life, with no desire for matters of men and women."

"In half a month, the Yaochi Immortal Palace will begin recruiting Disciples. I heard that this time, the Palace Master of the Yaochi Immortal Palace will personally be present to preside over the Disciple recruitment.

As long as I soar to great heights there, enter the Palace Master's Dharma Eye, and become a Disciple of the Yaochi Immortal Palace, then no one will be able to stop me."

With that, she left without looking back, making it clear that she only considered him a shield.

But Lin Chen, the key point he grasped was: someone wanted to use her as a tool for alliance.

However, seeing such a beautiful woman, Lin Chen's interest was piqued.

"Heh? A shield, huh?"

"I'm not the type to be a shield. If we're going to play, let's play for real!"
