"Jiu Yi!"

The system's voice woke Jiang Lin from his deep sleep. In the room, a shout startled Jiang Lin awake from his dream, and he sat up in bed.

Sweat had soaked Jiang Lin Jiang Lin's back, and strands of hair clung to his forehead.

Jiang Lin had a dream!

I dreamt that Jiu Yi shielded me from that Destruction Beam, and then... nothing.

Then he felt an urge to skin that dragon alive and tear it apart.

But what happened in the end? I think I fainted?

Wait! What happened to Master and the others?

Jiang Lin, who had just woken up, immediately became anxious!

"Daddy? Daddy... Daddy!"

Just as Jiang Lin was panicking and about to get out of bed...

As Jiang Lin had just gotten up, Little Niannian, who was curled up and sleeping soundly on his chest, rolled off Jiang Lin father's chest and landed on Jiang Lin's lap.

Niannian sat up and rubbed her Mi Hu little eyes.

Seeing that her dad had finally woken up, Niannian happily rushed over and pressed her face against her dad's.

"Daddy~~~Daddy~~~~Daddy's okay~~~That's great~~~~"

Niannian's chubby tail wagged back and forth, and her bright eyes narrowed into two happy crescent moons.

"Little Linlin... that's great, Little Linlin, you're finally awake..."

Hearing the noise in the room, Jiang Yuni ran in and happily rushed over to Jiang Lin woken up.

Feeling her master's tight embrace, as if afraid of being pulled away from her arms, and feeling the warmth in her embrace, it seemed as if her master was crying.

Although Jiang Lin was still completely bewildered, Jiang Lin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his master was alright.

Hearing the sound, Wu Su Su also entered the room.

Seeing Jiang Lin wake up, Wu Su Su pressed her slender hand to her heart.

It felt as if the huge boulder weighing on my heart had finally been removed.

On the other side, Bai Ling Bai Qiao also walked in.

Their eyes were red, as if they had been crying for a long time.

Seeing Bai Ling Bai Qiao's heartbroken expressions, Jiang Lin's heart skipped a beat.

Now fully awake, Jiang Lin knew that Jiu Yi had collapsed in his arms; it wasn't a dream, it was real...

"Daddy?"

"Little Lin?"

Jiang Lin slowly sat up from the bed.

Jiang Lin the bed and stood in front of Bai Ling and Bai Qiao.

"Young Master Jiang?"

Looking into Jiang Lin's guilty eyes, Bai Qiao gently wiped away her tears and whispered.

"Sorry..."

Jiang Lin took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and bowed deeply to Bai Ling Bai Qiao.

"It's my fault for not protecting Jiu Yi! I'm sorry!"

"Young Master Jiang... no... it's not Young Master Jiang's fault, it's our fault for not protecting our master well... it's all our fault..."

Hearing Jiang Lin's apology, Bai Ling and Bai Qiao finally couldn't stop the tears from falling from their eyes.

The two girls knelt on the ground, tears streaming down their faces.

Beside her, Little Niannian threw herself into her mother's arms. Sensitive Little Niannian's nose also tingled, and she gently buried her face in her mother's arms.

After a long while, when the crying gently subsided, Jiang Lin, wearing only his underwear, patted their heads, his voice gentle yet filled with sorrow. "Can I... go see her?"

"Um!"

Bai Ling nodded.

Slowly standing up, Bai Ling gently patted her collar, and then Bai Ling collar moved slightly.

Just as Jiang Lin was completely bewildered, a cute Little White Fox peeked its adorable head out from Bai Ling's collar.

As if it had just woken up, the Little White Fox braced its tiny paws against Bai Ling's collar and rubbed its head against her clothes.

When the Little White Fox saw Jiang Lin, a cute, bright light flashed in its eyes.

Leaping out from Bai Qiao's collar, the Little White Fox nimbly pounced into Jiang Lin's arms.

"Chirp chirp~~~ Chirp chirp~~~~"

Like the chirping of a sparrow, the Little White Fox hopped onto Jiang Lin 'Jiang Lin shoulder, its little head rubbing against his cheek, looking incredibly cute.

"Jiu Yi?"

"Chirp chirp? Chirp chirp~~~~"

The Little White Fox was taken aback at first, then seemed to accept the name and rubbed against Jiang Lin's face even more affectionately...

Half an hour later, because of the recent battle in White Emperor City, Wu Su Su, the strongest among them, and her master had some matters to attend to and left first, since several of the feudal lords had fled.

In the courtyard, Jiang Lin, Bai Ling, and Bai Ling Bai Qiao sat around a stone table. On the table was a small soft cushion, and the Little White Fox on the cushion was already asleep.

"Jiu Yi turned into Little Fox?"

He gently pinched Jiu Yi's little ears, and the curled-up Little White Fox shrank back slightly, then angrily swatted Jiang Lin away with its paw.

That's it! This is Jiu Yi! This familiar feeling is so similar to my childhood!

Seeing the adorable expression on the table, Bai Ling Bai Qiao broke out in a cold sweat and nodded.

"After that battle, Master was seriously injured and his breath was almost gone. However, for some reason, Master's shattered Demon Core turned into strands of Spiritual Power and seeped into Master's body."

This is what the master looked like when the battle ended.

We suspect it's due to the Marriage Thread.

"The Marriage Thread?"

"Yes, that's a secret technique of our White Fox Race."

Bai Qiao nodded and continued to explain to Jiang Lin.

"Actually, we only found out at that time that the master had used the Marriage Thread on you, Young Master Jiang."

If Young Master Jiang has no master in his heart, then the master's path will be severed; if he does, then Young Master Jiang is the master's path.

My sister and I felt that at the last moment, the secret technique of the Marriage Thread was completed. Young Master Jiang truly had a master in his heart, so Young Master Jiang was the master's path. As long as Young Master Jiang was alive, the path would not be interrupted, and in the end, his life was saved.

Of course, although the Marriage Thread is said to involve both parties, it is also one-sided.

If Young Master Jiang does not have a master in his heart, and the master's path is damaged, even if they are connected by Marriage Thread, if the master's cultivation goes wrong, it will not affect Young Master Jiang.

The Marriage Thread will not affect Young Master Jiang's cultivation in any way, so please Young Master Jiang assured.

Fearing that Jiang Lin might misunderstand, Bai Ling and Bai Qiao quickly explained.

Hearing their explanation, Jiang Lin couldn't help but smile and gently flicked their foreheads:

"What are you thinking? Do you think I'm that kind of person? Even if it did have an impact, so what? The Great Dao is irrelevant to me. It's just..."

"Only?"

Jiang Lin was quite nervous:

"If I want to marry several wives, will this Marriage Thread have any effect?"

"..."

With blushing cheeks, even the well-behaved Bai Qiao felt a strong urge to bite Jiang Lin's neck. The two intelligent and beautiful girls spoke in unison:

"Won't!"
