Brother-in-Law Couldn't Be an Immortal Descended to the Mortal World, Could He?

Lin Ying quickly snapped out of her daze at Wenren Yu's shamelessness, feeling somewhat amused and exasperated.

She never intended to find any lackeys. Several talented female cultivators had tried to get closer to her, but she never agreed.

Not to mention Wenren Yu and Wenren Ge, Lu Yang is interested in them and they might become her sisters in the future, so how could she let them be her lackeys?

It won't look good if we meet again.

Lin Ying chuckled and shook her head, saying, "Fellow Daoist Wenren is joking. I have no intention of hiring lackeys. I helped you two simply because I find you pleasing to the eye. If Fellow Daoist Wenren doesn't mind, we can be friends."

"Friends?" Wenren Yu was somewhat disappointed when she heard what Lin Ying had said earlier, but she could hardly believe her ears when she heard what she said next.

What are my own strengths and background? And what is this Senior Sister Lin's background?

Does she deserve to be Senior Sister Lin's friend?

However, Wenren Yu was naturally quite easygoing, and she quickly laughed and said, "Then we're good friends! Senior Sister Lin calling me that is too formal. Why don't you call me A-Yu, Xiao Yu, or Yu'er? That's what my friends and family call me!"

Lin Ying nodded, her smile gentle, and said, "Xiao Yu, you can also call me Yingying."

Wenren Yu immediately climbed up the ladder, grinning, and said, "Sister Yingying!"

Lin Ying simply smiled and did not refute the title.

Wenren Yu then asked curiously, "By the way, Sister Yingying, with your resources, there's no need for you to venture into the secret realm. What are you planning to do there? Do you need our help?"

The things Lin Ying displayed were enough for Wenren Yu to believe that her background was extraordinary.

For a young lady like Lin Ying, the fortuitous opportunities within the Ancient Yue Secret Realm are probably not as valuable as something her Fang Household could casually offer.

Entering the secret realm would be a waste of time and also dangerous.

Lin Ying didn't hide anything, but explained with a gentle smile, "Personally, I prefer to stay in the cave abode to refine pills, but my husband wanted me to come in to find the Golden-Thread Lingzhi, so I came in."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Yu was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise.

She had just exclaimed in surprise when she remembered that her younger sister was still recovering from her injuries, so she quickly covered her mouth.

She glanced cautiously at Wenren Ge, who was still healing, then looked at Lin Ying and asked, "Sister Yingying, you have a husband now?"

She felt a little disappointed.

I never expected that Sister Yingying, with her stunning beauty, gentle temperament, and powerful background, would find a husband while only at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

What a pity...

What she said to Wenren Ge before was actually a joke; she didn't have any romantic feelings for women.

But if the other person is a woman like Sister Yingying, then it's not impossible for her!

Alas... the path of repaying kindness by marrying into another's family has been lost.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I can't believe some stinky guy could win Sister Yingying's favor! That guy is so lucky!"

Lin Ying looked at Wenren Yu's somewhat dejected face and couldn't help but chuckle. There was a hint of regret in her eyes, as if she was recalling something that had happened to her before.

Although less than a year has passed, her life has undergone tremendous changes, all thanks to Lu Yang.

She explained, "I'm not good enough for him. To have won his favor is the greatest blessing of my life."

Wenren Yu was stunned by what he heard.

She looked at the gentle-smiling Lin Ying with some disbelief and murmured, "Sister Yingying, you must be joking. How could someone as ethereal as you be unworthy of another man? Surely he's not some immortal descended from heaven?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ying revealed a rare, playful smile and said softly, "Perhaps he really is a celestial being descended to earth. You'll find out when you meet him."

As someone who has known Lu Yang since the beginning, she has witnessed Lu Yang transformation and naturally knows just how exaggerated Lu Yang charm has become.

Even though she sees Lu Yang often, sometimes when she sees his face, she can't help but want to get close to him and kiss him, let alone someone she's just meeting.

Hiss...

Wenren Yu was stunned for a moment; she felt that Sister Yingying was a bit too much.

However, she did not refute it.

She's not stupid. Sister Yingying clearly loves her husband very much. If she speaks ill of him, she might anger Sister Yingying.

Of course, she didn't believe what Sister Yingying said about a celestial being descending to earth; she thought it was just a case of beauty being in the eye of the beholder.

Wenren Yu suddenly seemed to remember something and a thoughtful expression appeared on her face. "Sister Yingying, is the Golden-Thread Lingzhi you mentioned the kind that's white but has golden threads growing on it, a rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"

Lin Ying paused for a moment, then looked at Wenren Yu: "You've met her before?"

A look of joy appeared in her heart.

Originally, the Wenren sisters were only saved because of Lu Yang, but unexpectedly, it also saved her the effort of searching for the Golden-Thread Lingzhi!

Wenren Yu immediately nodded and said, "I've seen it. The place where we encountered that White Bone Demon was a valley. Deep in that valley, there were two Ganoderma lucidum plants. We didn't know what kind of herb it was, but we estimated it must be quite valuable. We planned to take those two Ganoderma lucidum plants, but unfortunately, we were ambushed by the White Bone Demon and had to escape."

Lin Ying's eyes lit up as she listened to Wenren Yu's words, and her gentle face flushed slightly with excitement.

She said, "Once Xiao Ge recovers, could you please take me to that place?"

Wenren Yu immediately patted her chest and nodded vigorously, saying, "Of course! We sisters owe you a huge favor, Sister Yingying. This little thing is definitely no problem."

Then she smiled and suggested, "Although that White Bone Demon is very strong, it's no match for you, Sister Yingying. You can suppress it, and we sisters will help you retrieve the Ganoderma lucidum!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ying immediately shook her head and said gently, "You only need to tell me where the Golden-Thread Lingzhi is. As for retrieving the Ganoderma, my husband wants me to act alone, so I don't need your help."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Yu was stunned for a moment.

She couldn't help but think to herself, "Who is Sister Yingying's husband anyway?"

Why does Sister Yingying have to go retrieve the Golden-Thread Lingzhi alone?

Aren't you afraid that Sister Yingying might get into danger?

Sister Yingying is his wife, how could he be so heartless towards her!

That's outrageous!

Wenren Yu felt a little angry, feeling sorry for Sister Yingying.

Despite the obvious affection Sister Yingying expressed for her husband, he didn't seem to care much about Sister Yingying.

Sigh... I hope Sister Yingying's sincerity won't be misplaced.

Wenren Yu pursed her red lips, not uttering her thoughts aloud. After a two-second silence, she said, "Then if you encounter danger later, Sister Yingying, we sisters will come to help you."

Lin Ying glanced at Wenren Yu and said gently with a smile, "No need. If I'm really in danger, my husband will come to save me."

Wenren Yu paused, somewhat surprised. "Your brother-in-law is coming to rescue you? He's nearby?"

As she spoke, Wenren Yu glanced around guiltily, wondering if he had overheard the bad things she had said in her mind.

Lin Ying chuckled softly and shook her head, "Not nearby."

"Not nearby? Then how can we save Sister Yingying?"

Lin Ying smiled without saying a word, offering no explanation.

Wenren Yu Lin Ying didn't say much, Wen Renyu stopped asking, thinking that this might involve Sister Yingying's secret.

The two chatted about other things, and two hours later, Wenren Ge's shoulder injury had completely healed, revealing a snow-white shoulder. The once hideous wound had not left a single scar.

The Yin Sha Qi was completely forced out of Wenren Ge's body.

Wenren Ge stood up, glanced around to make sure no one was there, quickly changed her clothes, and then looked at Lin Ying, speaking calmly, "Sister Yingying, I heard what you were saying. We can set off now."
