After obtaining the Five-Colored Stone King containing the Son of the Undying Emperor, Chen Yu did not linger in the Yaochi Fairyland. Led by the Yaochi Saintess, he returned to the Yaochi Stone Workshop.
Moreover, the Yaochi Saintess was acting strangely today, and Chen Yu didn't want to offend her, so he took the apology she gave him and planned to leave Yaochi Stone Workshop.
However, Chen Yu had only taken a few steps when he turned back to the Yaochi Saintess, leaned closer, and whispered:
"Fairy, your unusual behavior today isn't because of me and the Yaoguang Saintess, is it? If you'd like, I can take you to a restaurant for a stroll. You don't need to envy others."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Yu vanished in a flash, leaving the stunned Yaochi Saintess alone on the spot. By the time she came to her senses, Chen Yu was nowhere to be seen.
Although Chen Yu didn't believe that all the beautiful women in the world would like him, flirting with them was still no problem.
If you don't have the ability, flirting with beautiful women is suicidal. But if you have the ability, it's a different story; flirting more might bring unexpected rewards.
After all, these saintly goddesses are used to being high and mighty, and even people of their own level will treat them with respect.
When you encounter someone who doesn't play by the rules, you'll inevitably have some different feelings. Whether those feelings are good or bad is beyond their control.
As for the Yaochi Saintess not marrying outside the palace, that's utterly insignificant in the face of absolute power. If he becomes an Emperor or an Immortal in the future, would the Yaochi Sacred Land dare to disobey him?
Besides, he was just teasing her, wanting to see if the otherworldly, ethereal Yaochi Saintess would ever fall to earth.
If the Yaochi Saintess can stay true to herself and not be influenced by his words, then he is helping Yaochi Saintess cultivate and doing a good deed, Chen Yu comforted himself.
After leaving the Yaochi Stone Workshop, Chen Yu headed towards the Jiang Family's ancestral home in the Holy City. Since he had come to the Holy City, he naturally wanted to visit Jiang Taixu. If he wasn't there, he could leave later.
Walking down the bustling street again, Chen Yu's lips curled into a slight smile. He could feel the gazes of those watching him from the shadows, and there were quite a few of them.
In fact, ever since he left Tianxuan Stone Workshop, he had felt a series of prying eyes. The reason he was walking slowly down the street was to see if the people in the shadows would be unable to resist making a move.
Now he's Immortal Second Realm Great Power, capable of flying over the Holy City. If he weren't trying to catch a batch of fish, why would he be strolling leisurely down this street?
Even after arriving at the Jiang Family's territory, no one in the shadows revealed themselves.
However, Chen Yu was not disappointed, because the people hiding in the shadows had not left, indicating that they had not given up. He just didn't know when they would make their move.
After explaining his purpose to the gatekeeper, the Jiang Family quickly took Chen Yu to Jiang Taixu's residence, which was the same garden as before.
Upon seeing Jiang Taixu and Fairy Caiyun, Chen Yu was about to speak when he noticed Fairy Caiyun's slightly protruding belly, and for a moment he forgot to greet them.
After a long pause, he finally realized what he had done and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, senior, it was my rudeness."
Chen Yu felt a little embarrassed; was it really appropriate to be looking at someone's wife's belly so soon after arriving?
He then added, "Congratulations to both of you seniors."
This is indeed something to congratulate them on; this is the fruit of their love, which Jiang Taixu and Fairy Caiyun welcomed after four thousand years apart.
"Don't be so polite, sit down and let's talk," Jiang Taixu said with a smile, as he was about to become a father himself.
After sitting down, Chen Yu took out a drop of Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow and said, "Seniors, I may have to go into seclusion again and may not be able to come then, so I'm presenting this gift in advance. Please use this drop of Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow to baptize this younger brother or sister."
During their last trip to the Immortal Transformation Pool, they took away the Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow in one go, while other forces didn't get a single drop.
Upon seeing the Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow, Jiang Taixu hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not refuse. This drop of Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow could give his child a brighter future.
"Alright, then I'll shamelessly accept it."
During the last trip to the Immortal Transformation Pool, he led his family members and did not go with Chen Yu and the others. As a result, he only obtained a few Immortal Pill Fragment, and his gains were far less than those of Chen Yu and the others.
If they had been with Chen Yu and the others back then, the couple would probably have also gotten a share of the Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow.
After all, news had already spread that the descendants of several notorious bandits in the Northern Region had received the Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow and undergone a complete transformation, and he had naturally heard about it as well.
Shaking his head to stop thinking about it, Jiang Taixu asked, "Have you completed your purpose in coming to the Holy City?"
Chen Yu nodded upon hearing this. He had already obtained the Son of the Undying Emperor's egg, and the complete Nine Secrets were beckoning to him. He could only hope that the Son of the Undying Emperor would not disappoint him.
Jiang Taixu nodded, asking no further questions. The two chatted about other things afterward, and as they were about to leave, Chen Yu took out another drop of Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow and said:
"I would like to ask you to look after the Yaoguang Saintess. If she needs any help, I may not be able to find out immediately, and then I will have to trouble you."
This time, Jiang Taixu did not accept the Dream Fantasy Divine Marrow. Putting aside the fact that he had just accepted a drop, Chen Yu had saved his life. Although it was a transaction between Chen Yu and Ye Fan, he could not forget the debt of gratitude.
He had also heard about the Yao Guang Sacred Land, or rather, marriage alliances were not a secret among top powers.
Everyone in the know could guess the Yaoguang Saintess's purpose. With the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Jar hanging over their heads, those old guys from the Yao Guang Sacred Land probably wouldn't dare to make another move.
But nothing is absolute, and no one can guarantee that nothing unexpected will happen. What if some mentally unstable person causes trouble? That's why Chen Yu asked Jiang Taixu to keep an eye on things, essentially adding another layer of insurance.
Seeing this, Fairy Caiyun nodded, quite satisfied with Chen Yu's behavior.
If Chen Yu were to renege on his promises and show no concern for the Yaoguang Saintess, then she would have to advise her brother Tai Xu to keep his distance from Chen Yu.
Moreover, the matter of the Yaoguang Saintess reminded her of her own past.
If it weren't for her higher cultivation level back then, she probably wouldn't have even waited for her Taixu brother to come looking for her; she would have already been forced to marry someone else under the pressure of a group of old guys from the Holy Land. Therefore, she said:
"Take the Divine Marrow back. We'll keep an eye on Yaoguang Saintess."
After Chen Yu left, Jiang Taixu summoned the head of the Jiang Family family and instructed him to announce publicly that anyone who bullied the Yaoguang Saintess was bullying him, Jiang Taixu.
Once this news came out, coupled with Chen Yu's recent visit to the Jiang Family, anyone with a brain could understand what it meant.
Now, the Yaoguang Saintess possesses two Extreme Emperor Weapon, the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Jar and the Hengyu Furnace, so who would dare to cause her trouble?
Even the dynasties in Central Plains that intended to form a marriage alliance couldn't say much at this point, since the alliance hadn't been finalized yet.
Even if the Yaoguang Saintess finds someone else as her Daoist partner, that's still a slap in the face to the Yao Guang Sacred Land, and has absolutely nothing to do with your Central Plains Dynasty.
Chen Yu, who had left the Jiang Family's territory, naturally heard this news as well, and nodded to himself, thinking that Jiang Taixu was indeed very reliable.
He then continued walking towards the Holy City, having lingered for quite some time, enough for the people in the shadows to make preparations.
