Xiao Yu: It actually... isn't impossible.

After making all the necessary arrangements and recovering his energy, Mo Yu finally walked out of the cave at a leisurely pace. He then headed straight toward the family.

Returning to the family in a good mood, he had just reached the front courtyard when he saw the Great Elder and the other two Elders hurrying past him shoulder to shoulder. Mo Yu stopped, a thoughtful look flashing through his eyes. He had clearly noticed the gloom and fury on their faces.

If I remember correctly, the Xiao Family should be facing some trouble soon. Some fragments flashed through his mind. He shook his head, turned around, and saw a long-legged woman in an Academy uniform dart out from a nearby path before standing angrily in front of him.

Looking at the tall, beautiful, and extremely sexy Xiao Yu in front of him, Mo Yu's heart skipped slightly. He had barely seen his Fiancee over the past few months, and he truly missed her... those long legs.

Caught off guard by Mo Yu's eager gaze, Xiao Yu, who had initially been rather imposing, blushed slightly as well. She took a step forward, her eyes sweeping over Mo Yu's body. A trace of doubt appeared on her pretty face as she asked, half-angrily and half-concernedly, "You... broke through?"

During this period, Mo Yu had been busy refining weapons. Thus, using a breakthrough in cultivation as an excuse, he had begun a seclusion that lasted several months.

Although cultivation had not been his primary purpose, with the support of the Profound Thunder and the Heavenly Gang Thunder Body, his strength had not stagnated over the past few months. Therefore, in response to the pretty woman's question, he calmly nodded.

"I did break through. I'm sorry I haven't spent time with you these past few months." Looking at Xiao Yu, who had been waiting for him all this time, Mo Yu felt somewhat moved and offered an apology.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu, who still held some anger, was like a deflated balloon. The fury in her heart instantly vanished.

She took a step with her sexy, slender legs and extended her fair hand, carefully smoothing out Mo Yu's slightly wrinkled clothes.

Seeing the usually hot-tempered, spoiled, and willful Xiao Yu make such a gentle gesture, Mo Yu was also somewhat stunned. However, he soon began to enjoy it in peace.

Nearly half a year had passed since the family gathering, and the relationship between the two had become increasingly natural and smooth. Xiao Yu would have refused to do something like this before, even if beaten to death, but now she did it willingly.

Nearby, clan members occasionally passed along the path. Whenever they saw Xiao Yu fixing Mo Yu's clothes like a little wife, they were all dumbstruck, followed by faces full of envy and jealousy.

As the most beautiful, mature, fierce, and arrogant woman in the family, Xiao Yu had attracted the attention of countless youths over the years. Especially those sexy, alluring legs of hers—they had practically haunted their dreams.

Yet she had now become so docile that they could not help marveling at Mo Yu's ability to "train his wife."

Looking down at that exquisite face, Mo Yu watched as a strand of black hair fell across her full chest. It was occasionally lifted by the breeze, revealing a glimpse of its ample softness. Her pair of sexy jade-like legs swayed as she moved, creating an extremely captivating sight.

Staring blankly at Xiao Yu, Mo Yu's breathing gradually became somewhat hurried, and a trace of heat appeared in his gaze.

In his Previous Life, he had enemies everywhere and had also lost faith in love, so he had never considered starting a family. He had given little thought to matters between men and women.

But in this life, he was still comfortably developing in secret. Combined with his current youthful body, he found himself becoming increasingly...

"Mo Yu... what are you looking at?" After smoothing out Mo Yu's clothes, Xiao Yu finally noticed his heated gaze. Her pretty face reddened, and she scolded him softly.

"Uh..." Jolted awake, Mo Yu's face also became somewhat awkward. Fortunately, his skin was much thicker than Xiao Yu's. After coughing twice, he pretended nothing had happened and said, "Nothing. I just think you're becoming prettier and prettier."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu gave a noncommittal hum. However, her red, sexy lips curved upward in a pleased arc.

Standing with her sexy legs crossed, Xiao Yu suddenly said shyly, "Actually, if you want to... it isn't impossible. It's just... it can't be... here."

After saying this, the usually outspoken Xiao Yu lowered her pretty face like a shy newlywed bride in the bridal chamber.

Hearing this, Mo Yu was also stunned. He then quickly understood and reacted.

On the Dou Qi Continent, things were not bound by as many elaborate rules as on the Blue Star in his First Life. After becoming engaged, a couple could be said to be no different from a true married couple. Thus, they were not particularly opposed to such matters before marriage.

Moreover, during these three months, Xiao Yu had been somewhat unsettled by Mo Yu's disappearance into seclusion. Therefore, after becoming emotional for a moment today, she had said those words.

Mo Yu could only shake his head with an amused, helpless smile.

He had merely revealed the nature that all men would show. He had not actually intended to do anything. Before obtaining sufficient ability to protect himself, he would not do anything irresponsible.

However, after Xiao Yu had expressed her feelings so openly, Mo Yu was also somewhat moved. He smiled and said, "There's no need to rush this matter. If possible, I'll hold a grand wedding for you!"

Hearing Mo Yu's words, Xiao Yu's face flushed with embarrassment. She nodded almost inaudibly, like a fly buzzing.

The moment those words had left her mouth, Xiao Yu had already felt somewhat regretful. After all, as a woman, it was ultimately somewhat inappropriate for her to say such things. It might even make Mo Yu misunderstand that she was a...

Fortunately, the Youth had not agreed immediately. Instead, he wanted to give her a grand wedding.

As a woman, what could be happier than this?

Mo Yu did not want to continue dwelling on the matter, so he changed the subject. "Has something happened to the family recently? Why did the Elders all look so grim?"

"Yes. The Jialie Family somehow invited a First-Grade Alchemist recently. Their Marketplace now has a Healing Medicine called 'Spring Return Powder.' It's cheap and easy to produce, so the Mercenaries around Wu Tan City like it very much."

Xiao Yu furrowed her Willow Eyebrows and said softly, "Because of the Spring Return Powder, foot traffic in all of the Xiao Family's Marketplaces has dropped by nearly half. With fewer people coming, the merchants in those Marketplaces have also moved directly to the Jialie Family's Marketplace. It's only been a few days, yet the Xiao Family has already suffered a considerable financial blow. Uncle Xiao has been driven frantic by this matter."

Hearing this, Mo Yu nodded in sudden understanding. No wonder the Three Elders had looked so grim...

Rubbing his chin, Mo Yu narrowed his eyes and said as though he had realized something, "A business rivalry, huh? I remember Xiao Yan personally stepped in at the end and brought down the Jialie Family..."
