Xiao Yu: You Won't Get That Chance

If Xiao Yu were forced to choose an order between Xiao Yi Xian and Yun Yun.

Without a doubt, he would certainly choose Xiao Yi Xian.

For a Sect Master like Yun Yun, who was brimming with tsundere pride, Xiao Yu hoped to properly "teach her a lesson" for an entire night using his own strength.

Rather than a mere half an hour.

However, considering the advantages of his cultivation technique, Xiao Yu had no choice but to make Yun Yun his primary target.

Only in this way could he make Xiao Yi Xian notice a different kind of change.

Facts proved that Xiao Yi Xian was indeed surprised.

Her reaction left Xiao Yu very satisfied.

Arriving at the room where Yun Yun resided, Xiao Yu did not knock, pushing the door open and walking straight in.

The air inside the room still drifted with the fragrance emitted by Yun Yun.

On the bed, a woman lay unable to move, her eyes, the only part she could turn, staring fixedly at the approaching Xiao Yu.

"Sect Master, I had no other choice, for fear that you might seek to end your own life."

Sitting by the bedside, Xiao Yu apologetically undid the restraints on Yun Yun's body.

"Xiao Yu, you are finished! This Sect Master keeps her word; either you kill me now, or once I recover my strength, I guarantee that not a single soul in your Xiao Clan will remain alive."

Yun Yun spoke at a rapid pace, aggressive and somewhat frantic, her expression filled with provocation.

It seemed as if she were hoping to goad Xiao Yu into making a move.

To think that she, the dignified Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect, was someone whom even the Gama Imperial Family had to treat with the utmost respect throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire.

Yet, the result was that she had been defiled by a disciple of a clan from an insignificant city.

Had she not been sealed by the Dou Technique of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, how could she have fallen to such a state?

What made it even more unacceptable to Yun Yun was that the person who had taken her purity was the younger brother of her own disciple's future husband.

"Sect Master Yun Yun, I imagine you wouldn't want Nalan to know that the beautiful and holy teacher in her heart has already become her sister-in-law, would you?"

Xiao Yu's calm remark had a miraculous effect, leaving Yun Yun instantly speechless.

"Xiao Yu, if you dare to tell Yanran about this, I will make you wish for death!" Yun Yun sat up, letting her charms be fully exposed, and warned him coldly.

"You won't have that chance."

Xiao Yu's indifferent tone made Yun Yun wish she could bite a chunk of flesh right off him.

Where on earth did this brat get his confidence?

Yun Yun thought to herself, filled with indignation.

But soon, she would know the answer.

Xiao Clan, back mountain.

Dressed neatly, Yun Yun was brought here by Xiao Yu after being forced to eat breakfast.

Then, Yun Yun's beautiful eyes widened, staring in disbelief at the figure before her.

"Reinforce the seal!"

Before Yun Yun could even ask, she heard the command issued from Xiao Yu's mouth.

The next second.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King obediently condensed the purple light of the seal once more, then, like a streak of a meteor, crashed straight into Yun Yun's body.

Yun Yun's figure swayed, as if her strength had been drained in an instant, and she nearly collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, a pair of hands caught her just in time.

"Do you understand now?" Xiao Yu rested his chin on her shoulder, the hot breath from his mouth striking Yun Yun's ear.

That warm breath felt as cold as ten-thousand-year black ice at this moment, making Yun Yun feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her entire body shivering.

Even in her prime, she was no match for the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

And now, she was in a sealed state.

As long as the Amethyst Winged Lion King existed, she would never be able to recover her full strength.

Because the Amethyst Winged Lion King could reinforce the seal on her again and again.

As these thoughts turned, Yun Yun's face turned pale, her thin lips trembling.

Could it be that I am to be firmly controlled by this insignificant youth from now on?

Returning to the Xiao Clan.

The three women in the backyard saw Yun Yun suddenly become dejected, feeling somewhat confused and strange.

Xiao Yu explained that Yun Yun had not yet accepted the change in her status and was having trouble adjusting, asking the three of them to keep her company and offer some guidance.

However, although he said the three of them, most of the time, it was Xiao Yi Xian who stayed by Yun Yun's side.

Because Li Qian had just given birth, she needed rest and had to look after their daughter, while Ya Fei was currently pregnant.

Xiao Yi Xian looked at Yun Yun with a trace of sympathy in her eyes.

She compared herself to the situation; at least she had known Xiao Yu for a longer time, and furthermore, she was in a weaker position, leaving her little room to maneuver or resist when faced with Xiao Yu's demands.

But this Sister Yun Zhi was different; she was a powerhouse capable of contending with a Tier 6 Magical Beast.

To have her marry Xiao Yu.

The psychological disparity was no different from a princess suddenly being married off to a beggar on the side of the road.

It was just that Xiao Yu was better than a beggar, and he possessed many secrets.

Xiao Yu had not revealed Yun Yun's true identity to the three women.

On one hand, he was worried about provoking Yun Yun, and on the other, he feared attracting the attention of the Misty Cloud Sect.

With his current strength, facing the Misty Cloud Sect was still a bit of a struggle.

What's more, the Misty Cloud Sect had a connection to the Soul Hall.

Xiao Yu did not want to be noticed by the Soul Hall so early.

The following days returned to the previous routine; Xiao Yu supervised Yao Chen in refining medicinal pills every day, occasionally trying his own hand at it as well.

Then, he would spend time with his wives and two children.

Xiao Yu's attitude toward his wives had always been excellent.

For instance, with Li Qian, he not only took meticulous care of her but also appropriately diverted Xiao Clan resources to her Li Clan.

Xiao Zhan and the three elders were aware of this, but they said nothing.

The reason Xiao Yu did this was also related to experience points.

Currently, the experience points Yun Yun provided him were the least, almost zero.

This indirectly indicated that Yun Yun's heart was filled with nothing but hatred for him.

Xiao Yu was not the least bit surprised; if he were in Yun Yun's shoes and treated this way, he doubted he could harbor any good feelings either.

Yet, as Xiao Yu had said, it was difficult for him to encounter a Dou Emperor powerhouse at this stage.

Since he had run into Yun Yun, he had to seize such a good opportunity.

Because marrying Yun Yun could at least save him several years of detours.

After using the rewarded two years of cultivation, Xiao Yu's strength rapidly increased from a one-star Dou Ling to a five-star Dou Ling.

As his strength grew higher, the improvement brought by one year of rewarded cultivation became limited.

Xiao Yu felt that if he reached the Dou Emperor realm in the future, a one-year cultivation reward probably wouldn't even be enough to raise him by a single star.

The heavy responsibility of taking wives cannot stop.

Jia Ma Imperial Capital.

The Imperial Palace.

"Grandfather."

In the palace, a young girl's eyes lit up when she saw the old man appear, and she revealed a sweet smile.

The old man wore a hemp robe; his face was aged, covered in wrinkles, and his hair was streaked with silver.

Although he looked elderly, the old man was in excellent spirits, and sharp glints flashed in his eyes from time to time, causing anyone who met his gaze to feel a stinging sensation as if pricked by needles.

This old man was the current pillar of the Jia Ma Empire, a powerhouse who had been famous throughout the Jia Ma Empire for a long time.

Elder Jia, Jia Xingtian.

"Ye'er, what has caused your brows to furrow so?"

Jia Xingtian asked with concern.

Princess Yao Ye pulled a sheet of paper from a pile of letters, "Grandfather, the Xiao Clan in Wutan City has been very lively lately. The City Lord wrote to say that the Xiao Clan has actually obtained a Tier 6 Magical Beast to guard them."

"Oh?"

A flash of surprise crossed Jia Xingtian's eyes. A Tier 6 Magical Beast was no ordinary beast; it possessed the strength of a human Dou Emperor.

Such a beast was already considered to be at the pinnacle within the Jia Ma Empire.

It was difficult enough to tame one, yet the down-and-out Xiao Clan in Wutan City actually had the foundation to acquire a Tier 6 Magical Beast?

"Let me see." Jia Xingtian took the paper and began to browse through it carefully.

Within the empire, the appearance of any Dou Emperor could potentially affect the imperial rule.

Jia Xingtian did not wish to see such a scene unfold.
