16: The Fairy's Request, The Eye of Fate

"Hmm?"

Xu Jinhuan turned his head and saw Fang Qingyao walking up, finally seeing her appearance from a close distance.

A black long dress outlined her exquisite figure vividly; she was curvy with a prominent chest and hips, and her hips were wider than her shoulders, making it clear at a glance that she was well-suited for childbearing.

Coupled with her stunning beauty and cold expression, she was exactly the kind of aloof Fairy who did not partake in mortal affairs.

No wonder Jiang Lianshan was obsessed with her.

However, this woman whom Saint Son Lianshan had always craved was now bowing directly before Xu Jinhuan.

The movement was abrupt and swift, so fast that her ample bosom couldn't react in time, heaving and undulating like raging waves.

Seeing such a scene, Xu Jinhuan was a bit bewildered.

"Senior Sister, what are you doing..."

Fang Qingyao forcibly suppressed the anxiety and shame in her heart and gritted her teeth.

"Sequence Xu, Qingyao dares to be bold and humbly requests to become your follower!"

As these words fell, the entire God of the East Mountain square instantly fell into dead silence.

Countless male Disciples who admired Fang Qingyao turned pale, their hearts shattered.

The once high and mighty, untouchable, aloof Fairy had actually taken the initiative to bow and request to become someone else's follower.

This feeling was even more painful than killing them!

Xu Jinhuan's fan club (die-hard fans) were even more gnashing their teeth, wishing they could tear this woman who was "offering herself" (in their opinion) into pieces.

"Sequence Xu, I can do it too! My talent is not bad, and I can warm your bed; I guarantee your satisfaction!"

"Pick me, pick me! I can do everything Senior Sister can do, and I can do what she can't. Most importantly, I am still a virgin!"

"Get lost, you slut, this is probably not your first time today—no, it's the first time this hour!"

The female Cultivators on the square suddenly rioted, trying to rush to Xu Jinhuan's side to replace Fang Qingyao.

But it was useless.

Xu Jinhuan gently raised his hand, and an invisible Chaos Power spread out, isolating all the noise and commotion around him.

"You want to become my follower?"

He was somewhat surprised.

He had originally been thinking about how to get the Taiyi Holy Lord to transfer this woman to his side.

He didn't expect that the prey would actually deliver itself to his door.

But he did not rush to agree.

Followers were extremely common in the cultivation world, especially at the level of Saint and sequence, who almost all had large teams of followers.

Either talents tamed from outside the Holy Land, outstanding Disciples within the Holy Land, or forces that voluntarily pledged loyalty.

Therefore, every Saint and sequence possessed a force capable of manipulating the situation in a region.

As the number zero sequence, Xu Jinhuan naturally needed to recruit followers.

But he didn't want to accept people easily because the first follower had great significance and needed careful consideration.

He was the Eternal Chaos Body and carried the System; becoming an Immortal Emperor was easy for him, so he didn't want to recruit a bunch of burdens!

His followers at least had to be Prodigies with the potential to suppress the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

Even those Saints from the Taiyi Holy Land were not qualified!

Seeing Xu Jinhuan indifferent, Fang Qingyao suddenly became anxious; she knew she could not catch this man's eye.

"I request Sequence Xu to take me in; Qingyao is willing to offer everything to you, to be your slave and servant!"

As she spoke, her dress, which had been clinging to her body, loosened slightly, revealing a large portion of the snowy scenery on her chest to Xu Jinhuan, forming a sharp contrast with the black fabric beside it.

Such words completely broke the hearts of Fang Qingyao's many simps, who cried out that it was cruel.

Xu Jinhuan still wanted to say something to ask about the specific situation.

But the time around him suddenly paused.

A familiar voice rang in his ears; it was clearly a cold and abstinent tone, yet it carried a unique coquettishness that made one's heart itch unbearably.

"Yo, this little girl is quite bold, daring to fight for a man with me."

It was Li Qingyue, the Empress had spoken.

"Revered Master, do you mean for me to refuse?"

Xu Jinhuan asked, guessing.

However, the cold voice gave him an unexpected answer.

"No, no, no." Li Qingyue's voice carried a hint of cunning, "I want you to accept this girl."

"Why?" Xu Jinhuan asked curiously.

He couldn't quite understand why his Revered Master would want to invite a wolf into the house when Fang Qingyao clearly had the intention of offering herself.

Wasn't this woman afraid that her own man would be seduced away?

Uh...

With her strength, it seemed he really couldn't run away...

Xu Jinhuan understood everything.

"Hmph, naturally it is because of her eyes. This girl's eyes are called the Eye of Destiny, which can avoid bad Luck and seek good fortune, seeing that ethereal Luck."

Li Qingyue's voice continued.

"She will be a great help on your path of growth!"

Hearing Li Qingyue's words, Xu Jinhuan immediately activated his Double Pupils Divine Ability. His eyes turned golden, noble beyond words, as if he could see through all falsehoods and pierce through the long river of time.

After awakening the Double Pupils, he indeed saw the abnormality in Fang Qingyao's eyes.

An extraordinary power gathered in her eyes, pure, vast, and mysterious, full of the aura of destiny.

Revered Master's words were true!

Immediately, Xu Jinhuan lost any thought of refusal.

Since the Empress had spoken, if he continued to decline, it would seem coy and not like a man.

Thinking everything through, Li Qingyue's aura suddenly vanished, and the briefly paused time finally returned to normal.

Among the hundreds of thousands of people present, no one felt anything unusual, not even the Elders and Grand Elders in the clouds.

"Senior Sister Fang, please rise; I have agreed to your request."

Xu Jinhuan virtually supported Fang Qingyao's arm, straightened her body, and covered up the exposed spring scenery.

"Thank you, Revered Master!"

With her wish fulfilled, Fang Qingyao was overjoyed. In her excitement, tears even welled up in her eyes; those who didn't know might think Xu Jinhuan was bullying her.

Of course, it was also possible that she did this on purpose, just to deeply bind herself to this number zero sequence.

Looking at Fang Qingyao, who was lowering her eyebrows and acting coyly before him, Xu Jinhuan nodded with satisfaction.

This trip out to test his strength not only yielded a Great Emperor Scripture regarding the Divine Soul and an immortal medicine, but also a Sign-in target.

He had made a huge profit!

"Since that is the case, you will first return to Eastern Emperor Mountain with me."

Xu Jinhuan turned around, not giving other female Disciples a chance to crowd around, and disappeared directly into the Void Realm.

Feeling the gale stirred up by his excessive speed, Fang Qingyao's pupils constricted, her mind shaken.

She couldn't see, she couldn't see at all!

Even though she had activated her Eye of Destiny in advance, she still couldn't see Xu Jinhuan's movements!

This Revered Master of hers was clearly a full Realm lower than her.

Yet his strength was unfathomable!

After a brief moment of distraction, she hurriedly flew up, turning into a stream of light, and rushed towards Eastern Emperor Mountain, tens of thousands of miles away.

"Revered Master, wait for me!"

On the spot, a group of Disciples, regardless of gender, beat their chests and stamped their feet, unable to catch up.

Returning to Eastern Emperor Mountain, Xu Jinhuan went straight back to his room to go into seclusion.

At the palace entrance, Li Qingyue waited patiently with a hint of playfulness.
