10: To each his own!

The next morning.

“System, are you saying Jin Ruoyan is the female lead?” Chen Xuan asked the System in his mind.

“Ding, yes, she possesses the Luck of the female lead and has a strong connection with Qin Feng, so she is judged to be the female lead.”

“So that’s how it is. It seems there’s some plot I don’t know about. That garbage author didn’t even write that far!”

“What is my husband thinking about?” Jin Ruoyan suddenly hugged Chen Xuan, her cheek pressed against his chest as she asked.

“Nothing, just some matters about Cultivation.”

“My husband truly didn’t lie to Wife. It’s just that you gave me the Xuan Yang Sect’s Cultivation Technique. Won’t the Xuan Yang Sect…?” Jin Ruoyan was a little worried.

“Don’t worry, your husband here still has connections!” Chen Xuan said casually. In reality, what he gave her was not the Xuan Yang Sect’s Cultivation Technique at all, but… Hehehe!

“My husband is truly amazing!” Jin Ruoyan looked at Chen Xuan with adoration.

“Oh, where, where? It’s nothing! But my Wife is a rare Genius, only seen once in 10 years. I really couldn't tell!” Chen Xuan rubbed Jin Ruoyan’s small face.

Jin Ruoyan’s face instantly turned crimson.

“You, you’re so bad, husband! I’m not talking to you anymore!”

“Alright, alright, it’s my fault. But it’s already morning. Are you really okay not going home?”

“It’s fine, I snuck out. I just need to sneak back into my room.”

“What if Yanxin comes looking for you now? She probably also received the news of my marriage. Maybe she’ll come gossip with you?”

“Huh?” Jin Ruoyan’s smile froze.

“No, no, I have to go back quickly. I’ll, I’ll come over again later!” After saying that, Jin Ruoyan quickly dressed herself and limped back.

“This girl!” Chen Xuan chuckled.

However, he also got up, washed up, and came to Lin Shuiyao’s side. At this time, Lin Shuiyao had also gotten up and started preparing breakfast. After all, her Cultivation Level was still shallow; she still needed to eat during the Qi Refinement Stage.

“My husband is here. Did you sleep comfortably last night?” Lin Shuiyao asked Chen Xuan with a smile, seemingly implying something.

“Uh, it was alright, alright! Haha.” Chen Xuan laughed awkwardly, but Lin Shuiyao gently glared at him.

“Normally, my husband comes to accompany me and our child every night. Why didn’t you come last night?”

“Well…” Seeing Lin Shuiyao staring at him intently, Chen Xuan still told her everything.

“That girl from the Jin Family is quite excellent in all aspects, but her Spiritual Root…”

Jin Ruoyan was just a mixed Spiritual Root, with only a slightly higher metal affinity, nothing more. So Lin Shuiyao was a bit worried if she could accompany Chen Xuan to the end in the future.

As for Chen Xuan wanting to take another concubine, she wasn’t jealous at all. Mainly, she alone sometimes really couldn’t handle him!

And if she didn’t let him take a concubine, others might even say she was a jealous woman!! This was absolutely unacceptable!

As for her own status? Don’t be ridiculous, how could a little girl be her opponent? Come back in a few hundred years!

“Who knows what will happen in the future? Don’t worry about this.” Chen Xuan hugged Lin Shuiyao.

“Alright, then you two must Cultivate well, so you don’t experience life and death separation!”

“Got it.”

…

After chatting with Lin Shuiyao for a while, Chen Xuan went to briefly guide the Disciples from the Qin Family and the Liu Family.

However, Liu Yanxin today seemed completely dejected. Jin Ruoyan, on the other hand, was cheerfully laughing beside her, carefree. Because she was now at Cultivation Level Seven of Qi Refining, while Liu Yanxin, her best friend and rival, was still stuck at Cultivation Level Six.

“Senior Brother Chen, can I talk to you privately?”

Chen Xuan looked up and saw that it was Liu Yanxin.

“Of course, Junior Sister Yanxin.” Chen Xuan replied with a smile.

Liu Yanxin walked over and stopped beside Chen Xuan. Chen Xuan looked at Liu Yanxin, smelling the faint body fragrance around her, and his heart stirred slightly. She was the first female lead to appear, but her screentime was pitifully small, so she definitely wasn't the primary female lead.

But she possessed beauty that could topple nations, a rare beauty, especially her long, slender legs, which made people…

Chen Xuan’s gaze unconsciously fell on Liu Yanxin’s legs, and a feeling of attraction arose in his heart. Liu Yanxin noticed Chen Xuan’s gaze, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

“Senior Brother, Senior Brother Chen, what are you looking at?”

Chen Xuan snapped back to reality and smiled awkwardly.

“Nothing, Junior Sister Yanxin, what do you need to tell me?”

“It, it’s about you and Aunt Yao. I, I’ve already heard about it!” Liu Yanxin’s emotions were slightly agitated.

But she couldn’t be blamed. Her Senior Brother, who was perfectly fine, might inexplicably become her father in the future. Anyone would find that hard to accept, right? And she herself had a very good relationship with Senior Brother Chen Xuan…

“Oh, it’s about that. Is there a problem? Yao Yao and I are also in love, so we just thought of getting married.” Chen Xuan said the same lines he used with Jin Ruoyan.

“You… Does Qin Feng know? Have you told him? He will…?” Liu Yanxin’s face was crimson, she really couldn’t say some things.

“Oh, if you didn’t mention Qin Feng, Senior Brother, I would have forgotten! I haven’t notified little Feng yet! I need to tell him quickly so he doesn’t miss the grand ceremony of me and his mother!”

“As for me and little Feng, we’ll address each other separately. I’ll call him Junior Brother, and he’ll call me Dad!”

“!!!”

Liu Yanxin pointed at herself in shock.

“Then, then what about me?”

“Of course, we’ll also address each other separately, but you haven’t married Qin Feng yet, so let’s just call each other Senior Brother and Junior Sister!” Chen Xuan said.

Liu Yanxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, without even realizing it herself.

“Alright, do you have anything else you want to ask?”

“…” Liu Yanxin remained silent.

She still wanted to know if Lin Shuiyao was willing or coerced, but she simply couldn't ask in front of Chen Xuan. Even if she was coerced, she couldn't stop it.

“Alright, since there’s nothing else, go back. I also have to go busy myself. I’ll be getting married in two or three days, so my focus definitely can’t be on this anymore.”

…

Liu Yanxin didn’t know how she walked out. Since she first met Chen Xuan, he had never chased her away, but now…

“Hey, what’s wrong with you? You look completely distraught. Is it Senior… did Senior Brother bully you?” Jin Ruoyan asked with concern.

“No, Senior Brother didn’t bully me.” Liu Yanxin quickly explained.

“Then what’s going on with you?”

“What do you mean, what’s going on? Senior Brother is going to marry my future… Can you feel good about that?”

“You two just address each other separately, it doesn’t affect you!” Jin Ruoyan pouted.

“You’re right, it doesn’t affect me…” Liu Yanxin repeated, but she still couldn’t be happy. She felt very upset.

“That’s more like it!”

“By the way, how did you Breakthrough to Cultivation Level Seven of Qi Refining? When I asked you earlier, you were also hemming and hawing!”

“I… I don’t know either. I just Breakthrough like that!” Jin Ruoyan’s face flushed.

She really didn’t know how she Breakthrough. At that time, she was completely dazed. Whatever Chen Xuan told her to do, she did, and then after she came to her senses, she had Breakthrough.

Liu Yanxin stared at Jin Ruoyan for a while.

“Your Breakthrough this time is very strange!”

“No, no, this is all from my usual accumulation!”

“I Breakthrough to Cultivation Level Six before you, so why haven’t I accumulated enough to reach Cultivation Level Seven of Qi Refining?”

“Ah? Then I don’t know, ha, haha!”
