"Su Yang… There's no need to thank me for what I've done, as I'd benefited greatly from lending my body, too. If not for Senior Tang, I would not have reached the Heavenly Spirit Realm at this age. Furthermore, my view of this world— the cultivation world would have remained as insignificant as an ant."
"How much of Lingxi's memories do you have?" Su Yang then asked her.
"Only what she willingly shared with me. Although our souls were temporarily merged together and she could see all of my memories, it didn't work the same way for me, as her soul was simply too powerful for me to even peek. However, I know a fair bit of the Divine Heavens and Senior Tang's background," Hong Yu'er responded with a calm expression on her face.
"Is that so? Then what do you plan on doing now?"
"I...I don't know," Hong Yu'er shook her head, and she continued after a moment of silence, "When we were officially engaged, I'd hated your guts because I thought you were idiotic or mindless, and I made it my life's mission to escape from you, but alas, after learning the truth from Senior Tang, I... I have changed, as did my views of you and this world, and I don't know what I should do from now on anymore…"
"I don't have any advice for you, but if you need someone to talk to, you know where to find me. And because of what you've done for Lingxi, if you need anything from me, I shall do my best to fulfill your desires."
Hong Yu'er nodded. "I will return to my family for the time being, and I will slowly decide what I want to do from now on."
Su Yang nodded and turned around, preparing to fly away.
"Wait a second, Su Yang!" Hong Yu'er suddenly stopped him.
"What is it?" he turned around to look at her with a calm gaze.
"You will be leaving this world to go to the Divine Heavens soon, right?"
"That's right."
"I see…" Hong Yu'er nodded, and after a moment of silence, she continued, "By the way, Senior Tang… she really loves you. Because we share the same body, I was able to feel what she felt— her emotions... everything. Although I don't know what she's thinking, I know for sure that she has endured a lot trying to resist her urges to pounce on you. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have minded it if she really did it, but I am also relieved that she'd managed to keep her promise with me."
"I know… Lingxi is a strong woman, and I am blessed to have someone like her in my life. My years of efforts chasing after her— it was definitely worth it. Anyway, is that all you have to say?"
"Yes. I'll see you later, Su Yang." Hong Yu'er nodded.
A few moments later, Su Yang flew back to the Profound Blossom Sect with a solemn feeling around him.
Meanwhile, Hong Yu'er remained at the mountain peak for a little longer to stare at the horizon.
Sometimes later, Hong Yu'er mumbled in a puzzled voice, "Senior Tang… I had given you the permission to cultivate with him… Why did you refuse? You'd suffered plenty because of it."
"I really want to know your answer, but I guess that's no longer possible now since you are no longer in this world."
After spending a few more minutes lingering around the mountain peak, Hong Yu'er also flew away and made her way back to the Hong Family.
After returning to the Profound Blossom Sect, Su Yang went back to his room and proceeded to sit by the window and stared at the horizon for the entire day with a blank look on his face, looking like he'd lost a partner or something.
"The moment you went away, this world suddenly became darker, and the void in my chest returned. I… really cannot stay in this world for long or I might really go crazy," Su Yang sighed in a low voice.
Sometime later, the door to his room was knocked on.
*Knock* *Knock*
"Are you inside, Su Yang?" Wu Jingjing's voice resounded outside afterward.
"I am. Come inside," Su Yang said.
Hearing his words, Wu Jingjing opened the door and came into his room with the other two goddesses— Zhu Mengyi and Lian Li.
And the moment they saw Su Yang's face, they could instantly tell that he was in a bad mood.
"Are you okay, Su Yang? Sister Lingxi has returned to the Divine Heavens, right?" Wu Jingjing asked him.
"Yes, she's gone. And although I am feeling a little lonely, it's nothing I cannot handle," Su Yang said, not even bothering to hide his emotions like normally.
The goddesses exchanged looks with each other, and then they approached Su Yang.
"The babies are asleep now. If you want, we can accompany you for the rest of the night until you are feeling better. Although we cannot replace Sister Lingxi, we still want to relieve some of your pain," Wu Jingjing said to him.
Su Yang immediately smiled and said, "There's no need for you— or any of you to 'replace' Lingxi, as you are you and Lingxi is Lingxi. Thank you for worrying about me, but it's really not that serious."
"Then you don't want to cultivate?" Zhu Mengyi asked him.
Su Yang chuckled and said, "Now who said anything about not wanting to cultivate? Strip! We're going to have fun all night!"
The goddesses looked at each other with a relieved smile on their beautiful faces before they removed their clothes and went on the bed with Su Yang before cuddling each other for the entire night.
During their cultivation session, the girls quickly noticed that Su Yang was being a little more aggressive and intimate than normal, but that didn't bother them even the slightest, as it'd aroused their lust more than usual, allowing them to enjoy the cultivation more.
Chapter 756 Returning to Her Own Body
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Mmm…"
An extremely beautiful woman with long black hair, facial features that could easily doom an entire kingdom, a flawless figure and peerless jade-like skin slowly opened her eyelids, revealing the glowing red gems that had been sleeping within for many years.
"Looks like I am really back…" Tang Lingxi mumbled to herself with a dazed look on her fairy-like face.
She then stood up, walked a few steps, and stared at the void before her that was flickering with countless beautiful stars.
"Su Yang… I am serious… If you don't come back within ten years, I am going to fight until my last breath with the Heavenly Family."
After standing in the same spot for many days and staring at the void with a blank expression on her naturally cold-looking face, Tang Lingxi finally moved and took a single step towards the void.
Whoosh.
Tang Lingxi suddenly disappeared from her spot and appeared over a hundred thousands miles away from her original spot with just a single step and without any teleportation treasures.
After taking her first step, Tang Lingxi continued to take her second step… third step… fourth step and so on.
In less than a minute, Tang Lingxi had traveled over a million miles into the void, yet her expression remained calm, acting as though it was as natural as breathing and walking.
A few hours and hundreds of millions of miles later, Tang Lingxi could see a small planet in front of her.
After taking a deep breath, Tang Lingxi approached the planet.
A single step later, she entered this unknown world and hovered in the sky above the seemingly desolate land.
Tang Lingxi took another deep breath, and a moment later—
BOOM!
Her body exploded with a tyrannical red aura that could instantly flatten Sovereign Spirit Realm Cultivators without any effort and even kill Divine Realm Cultivators with ease.
Tang Lingxi's bloodthirsty aura quickly swept throughout the world like an unstoppable wave and anyone that was unfortunate enough to feel such this aura would uncontrollably tremble in profound fear.
Shortly after Tang Lingxi released her aura, as though there was a storm approaching, massive black clouds could be seen in the distance flying to her at incredible speed from every direction. However, if one looked closely, they would come to realize that these black clouds were actually people— a sea of people!
"The Young Lady has emerged from her secluded cultivation!"
"Young Lady! Welcome back!"
The countless people there shouted with excitement after seeing Tang Lingxi's beautiful figure.
Furthermore, each and every single one of these people were at least Divine Realm or above Cultivators.
"Quiet down! I just woke up and I don't need any noises right now!" Tang Lingxi suddenly shouted, and her voice boomed, causing the entire world to shake.
"..."
The place immediately turned dead silent— to the point where even a single pin drop could be heard a thousand miles away, and these Cultivators also slowed down in their movements, as they were afraid that they might anger Tang Lingxi.
Once all of the movements came to a complete halt and Tang Lingxi was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of experts, she spoke in a calm voice, "I only have one thing to say today— prepare yourselves. In ten years, depending on the outcome of a certain event, we may or may not be engaging another war with the Heavenly Family. However, it will be different this time because I plan on fighting until my last breath."
"..."
The entire place remained even a solid minute later despite her words, almost like they couldn't care less about her words.
"That's all."
Tang Lingxi then turned around and disappeared into the void again.
Shortly after Tang Lingxi left, the people that had remained silent suddenly erupted with noises and excitement.
"HEEEELLLL YEAAAAAH, BABY!"
"WHOOOOOOOOOO!!! WE'RE GOING TO FIGHT THE HEAVENLY FAMILY AGAIN!"
"FUCK! MY BLOOD IS BOILING ALREADY! WHO WANTS TO SPAR WITH ME?!"
"THE ASURA GOD CLAN SHALL ONCE AGAIN DOMINATE THE FOUR DIVINE HEAVENS!!!"
The noise was so loud that if one were to look at the world from the void, they would be able to see it shaking.
"SHUT THE HELL UP! I CAN STILL HEAR YOU IDIOTS!" Tang Lingxi's voice suddenly boomed in the ears of every Cultivator there, causing their ears and nose to bleed.
"..."
However, none of the Cultivators there minded the abuse and even continued to smile and giggle like a bunch of kids who'd just been scolded for their 100th time.
Meanwhile, Tang Lingxi spent another few hours traveling in the void until she reached another world, and it was even smaller compared to the previous world.
"So you have returned, Lingxi…"
A ripple suddenly appeared from the world and a profound voice resounded in Tang Lingxi's mind before she could even approach the world.
"Yes, father. I have returned," Tang Lingxi said.
"How was it? Is 'he' still alive?"
"Yes, Su Yang is well and alive."
"I see…" Tang Lingxi's father mumbled in a somewhat relieved tone.
A moment later, he continued, "Then what's the reason for your declaration just now? If he's alive, there's no need for us to fight. After all, you were the one who stopped the last war."
"I only plan on fighting the Heavenly Family if Su Yang doesn't appear before me in ten years," she responded.
"Ten years… What if 'he' returns a year late only to find out that you'd died in a war against the Heavenly Family?" Her father questioned her.
"That won't happen, because Su Yang promised me that he'll appear before me in ten years, and if he doesn't… then he's not Su Yang, and the Su Yang I saw in that foreign world is merely an illusion." Tang Lingxi spoke with a calm and resolute expression on her face.
Tang Lingxi's father remained silent for a good minute before speaking again, "Very well… Do as you wish. After all, I have already given you and 'him' the Asura God Clan. Even if you perish with the entire family, that is your choice and I will not intervene no matter what."
"I know that already, father. Then, I'll be away for another ten years. Unless it's an emergency, don't contact me. If you do, you know where to find me," Tang Lingxi said before disappearing into the void a moment later.
Chapter 757 Disciple Rivalry
After spending the entire night cultivating with the three goddesses, Su Yang silently left the Yin Yang Pavilion whilst the ladies slept soundly in his room from exhaustion.
"One more year… I just need to hold on for another year…" Su Yang mumbled to himself as he continued his routine of cultivating with the disciples and lecturing his alchemy disciples.
And in the blink of an eye, three more months had passed since Tang Lingxi left Su Yang and returned to the Divine Heaven.
During this time, Bai Lihua managed to master Profound-grade pills and began studying Earth-grade pills. Senior Zeng also saw significant improvements to his alchemy abilities— to the point where he's almost unrecognizable.
As for Cai Yan and Luo Yixiao…
*Knock* *Knock*
"Welcome, Master! I was just about to call you! Look! I can finally control my Jade Flames!" Cai Yan spoke in an excited tone as she showed Su Yang the flickering green flames dancing on her palms.
In these three months, Cai Yan had cultivated with Su Yang nearly every day, reaching the Earth Spirit Realm only a week ago, and she had already mastered the flame controlling technique because she'd been studying it passively throughout the months.
"Congratulations, Cai Yan," Luo Lixiao said to her after coming out of her house because she noticed Su Yang's presence. "Looks like your hard work has finally paid off."
"Yes, I can now finally start to practice alchemy seriously just like you!" Cai Yan nodded with excitement.
A mysterious smile appeared on Luo Yixiao's face after hearing Cai Yan's words, and then she looked at Su Yang and said, "Master, can you come to see me afterward? I need some advice regarding a few things."
"Sure," Su Yang nodded.
A few moments later, Su Yang entered Cai Yan's room and began dual cultivating with her. Despite already reaching her goals and entering the Earth Spirit Realm, Cai Yan asked Su Yang if she could continue to cultivate with him from time to time, and of course, Su Yang accepted her requests.
After their cultivation, Cai Yan asked him, "Master, now that I am at the Earth Spirit Realm and have mastered my flame control, are you going to impregnate me soon?"
Su Yang nodded his head and said, "If that's what you want, but I recommend you improve your cultivation a little bit more before you conceive."
"I understand!" Cai Yan said.
Sometime later, Su Yang gave her a quick lecture regarding alchemy and some advice for her alchemy flames control.
Afterward, Su Yang left her house and went to find Luo Yixiao, who was only a few steps away from Cai Yan's house.
"Thank you for coming, Master," Luo Yixiao said to him.
"What did you want to talk to me about? It isn't related to alchemy is it?" Su Yang said to her with a sharp gaze.
Luo Lixiao showed a defeated smile on her face, and she said, "As expected of you, Master. There's nothing I can hide from you."
"Though, you are wrong about one thing— this is somewhat related to alchemy."
"Oh? Then what is it?" Su Yang asked.
"Well... I have already decided this before today many weeks ago, but I also want to cultivate with you," Luo Yixiao spoke with a calm expression on her face, yet her heart was beating like a drum.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Su Yang asked her, "Can I ask why you'd come to this conclusion?"
"There are two reasons, Master. One, I don't want to fall behind Cai Yan who has already surpassed me in terms of cultivation, and finally, because I have come to love you, Master." Luo Yixiao spoke with a serious look on her face.
"Then why did you wait until now to ask me this?" Su Yang raised his eyebrows.
Although he could already imagine, he still wanted to give her an opportunity to relieve herself.
"Well, I wanted the two of us to be on an even field to a certain extent. After all, I had the advantage in both cultivation level and alchemy skills previously. Now that Cai Yan is above me in terms of cultivation, she will have to try and surpass me in alchemy while I am going to try and surpass her in cultivation." Luo Yixiao said.
"Rivalry between disciples, huh? Well, it's not a bad thing, and it's quite common. Many Masters even encourage rivalry, as it motivates the disciples to improve even more than normal." Su Yang nodded.
And he continued, "However, are you sure? You know what it means to cultivate with me, right?"
"Yes, I am well aware." Luo Yixiao nodded.
"Then when do you want to start?" Su Yang asked.
"Right now."
Immediately after saying those words, Luo Yixiao swiftly removed her clothes, letting them slide onto the floor and exposing her slim naked body to him.
Su Yang smiled after seeing this.
Sometime later, they entered the bedroom, and Luo Yixao sat on the bed with her legs closed in an elegant manner, yet Su Yang could still see the slit between her legs from above.
"Let's get you loosened up first, shall we?" Su Yang approached her before grabbing her legs and spreading them wide open.
"Oh!"
Luo Yixaio released a surprised noise as she laid on the bed with her legs spread by Su Yang.
'T-This is much more embarrassing than I'd expected…' Luo Yixiao cried inwardly as she felt a gentle breath on her little sister.
"Mmmm…"
Luo Yixiao's body trembled after Su Yang gently blew air into her little sister, feeling a chill climbing her spine.
A second later, Su Yang kissed her slit and began licking all over her slit with his soft tongue.
"Aaahh…"
Luo Yixiao moaned in a gentle voice as she submerged her mind in pleasure, feeling her body temperature quickly heat up.
A few moments later, once Luo Yixiao's little sister was soaking wet, Su Yang switched from his tongue to his fingers and inserted his fingers inside her warm cave, surprising Luo Yixiao.
Chapter 758 Plowing Luo Yixiao
"Aaaah~!" Luo Yixiao released a surprised moan after Su Yang stuck his fingers inside her closed cave.
"Oh? Looks like I've found your weak spot," Su Yang said to her with a grin on his face as he rubbed a specific location inside her cave with his fingers.
"Aah... Ahhh… Ahhhhn!"
Luo Yixiao's body jumped when Su Yang focused on a certain spot inside her cave, and her body gushed with Yin Qi the next moment.
Seeing this, Su Yang continued to tease Luo Yixiao's weak spot for many minutes until she was practically crying from too much pleasure.
"Haaa… haaa… haaa… Master…" Luo Yixiao looked at him with a yearning gaze on her lustful face. "Please… stop teasing me already and stick it inside me…"
Hearing her pleading voice, Su Yang stood up with a smile on his face, and he pressed his sausage between her slit after removing his clothes.
A moment later, he pierced her walls and broke the seal that kept her status of maiden intact.
"M-Master…!" Luo Yixiao clenched her teeth together to endure the pain, as this is her first time experiencing such intense pain before. However, she still managed to endure it much better than Cai Yan and quickly got used to the pain.
Once Luo Yixiao gave him the signal to continue with a gentle nod of her head, Su Yang began thrusting his stiff rod inside her body, rubbing her inner pink walls with his rod.
"Aahhn~"
"Aaaaaah~!"
"Aaaaahhhhhh~!"
Luo Yixiao moaned in a satisfied voice as Su Yang pounded her body for many minutes without rest.
Sometime later, Luo Yixiao changed her position and kneeled on the bed on all four limbs, and she allowed Su Yang to plow her body from behind in the doggy style.
"Mmm…"
"Ooooh~"
"Aaahn…!"
Many minutes later, Su Yang released his Yang Qi into Luo Yixiao's body.
"Master…" Luo Yixiao mumbled in a satisfied voice before falling asleep from exhaustion.
Su Yang shook his head with a smile after seeing this, and he sighed, "How are you going to cultivate if you fall asleep?"
Of course, he didn't actually wake Luo Yixiao up and allowed her to sleep peacefully.
While Luo Yixiao can cultivate his Yang Qi whenever she wants as long as it stays inside her body, the quality of his Yang Qi will not remain the same as forever, so the longer one waits to absorb his Yang Qi the more weaker effect it'll have on them.
However, because Su Yang is a dual cultivator who has trained his Yang Qi specifically, his Yang Qi will remain at its highest quality for many hours without degrading even slightly, allowing Luo Yixiao a few hours of leeway.
After putting a blanket on Luo Yixiao's naked body, Su Yang also left behind a cultivation technique for dual cultivators next to her head so she sees it the moment she wakes up.
Once he left her house, Su Yang returned to the Yin Yang Pavilion to rest for the day, as he'd already fulfilled all appointments with the disciples for the day.
'Even though it's been half a year since I reached the peak of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, I am still nowhere near reaching the Sovereign Spirit Realm. I guess I really have to consume the Hellfire Seed in order to breakthrough,' Su Yang pondered inwardly.
Sometime later, someone knocked on his door.
*Knock* Knock*
"Su Yang, it's me." Lian Li's voice resounded.
"Come inside."
Lian Li opened the door and entered the room a moment later.
"Su Yang, look at this— it's grown even bigger." Lian Li approached Su Yang while rubbing her belly that had started to become round only recently, and she has been visiting Su Yang every day ever since then from excitement.
"Come here." Su Yang patted his lap.
Lian Li nodded and sat on his lap.
Su Yang then rubbed her round belly and said, "How do you feel?"
"Besides a little full, I am perfectly fine," she said.
"I see… that's good." Su Yang nodded with a smile on his face.
"By the way, I have been wanting to ask you…" Lian Li suddenly said with a perplexed look on her face, and she continued after a moment of silence, "Do you… do you think I can still cultivate with you while I am in this condition? Or is that too weird?"
"You mean while you are pregnant? I don't see why not," Su Yang responded with a calm expression.
"Eh? Really? You don't think that's weird?" Lian Li asked him with wide eyes, seemingly surprised to hear such a causal answer. After all, most people would be put off by such an idea.
"Weird? This isn't going to be my first time cultivating with a pregnant woman— that is for sure," Su Yang said with a smile on his face.
"Really?" Lian Li's eyes widened some more after hearing such words.
Su Yang nodded and continued, "Yes, and some even had bigger stomachs than you do now."
"Do you want me to prove it to you?" He then asked her.
"R-Right now?"
"Whenever you want," he quickly responded.
"I want it now!" Lian Li also responded with haste.
"Very well…"
Lian Li and Su Yang proceeded to get on the bed a few moments later with their clothes already removed.
Su Yang then stared at the bump on Lian Li's stomach and chuckled, "It looks good on you. Kind of cute, too."
"C-Cute…?" Lian Li was speechless after hearing his praises.
Su Yang lowered his head and kissed the bump on Lian Li's stomach, and after some foreplay, he inserted his thick rod into her cave.
"Aaah~!" Lian Li moaned loudly, immediately feeling a difference, almost as though Su Yang's rod was thicker than usual.
Meanwhile, Su Yang also felt the difference, feeling as though Lian Li's cave was squeezing his rod harder than previously.
Of course, the reason it felt tighter than usual was because Lian Li's cave was actually tighter than usual due to her pregnancy, which is completely normal.
"I am going to move now, okay?" Su Yang said to her a moment later.
"Okay," Lian Li nodded.
Chapter 759 Tighter Than Usual
"Mmm…"
"Mmmmm~"
"Aaahn…"
Lian Li moaned softly as Su Yang gently and slowly thrust his rod inside her cave so that she could get used to the new feeling.
Once Lian Li was comfortable with the new sensation, Su Yang began moving his hips faster and faster.
"You're drooling more than usual," Su Yang said to her after noticing an excessive amount of Yin Qi flowing from her cave just a few minutes later.
Of course, this was natural, as pregnancy helped Lian Li's inner walls soften and discharge more fluid than usual, allowing her to not only feel more pleasure than normal despite Su Yang barely doing anything but also release more Yin Qi.
"More… more… Su Yang… go deeper!" Lian Li pleaded with a lustful look on her face.
Su Yang nodded, and he pushed his rod deeper into her cave until it reached the end.
"Ooooh~!" Lian Li released a loud and satisfying moan when she felt her belly become even fuller, almost like it was bloating up.
A few minutes later, Lian Li's breasts began leaking breast milk.
When Su Yang saw this, he pulled her body off the bed and made her sit on his lap while he sucked on her breasts.
"Mmmm~"
Lian Li's hands hugged Su Yang's head and mumbled, "Do you like it, Su Yang?"
After sucking a few mouthfuls of her breast milk, Su Yang said with a smile on his face, "It's incredibly fresh and sweet— I like it."
The two of them continued to cultivate with each other for another hour or so until Lian Li could no longer endure it. Since Lian Li's sensitivity increased, her stamina consumption also increased, making it difficult for her to have long sessions with Su Yang.
However, even though it was only for an hour, Lian Li felt more satisfied than she would in ten hours.
"Are you okay?" Su Yang asked her afterward.
"Yes… I am perfectly fine…" Lian Li responded in a slightly panting voice.
"Thank you… Su Yang…" she added a moment later.
"There's no need to thank me. I won't ignore you just because you are pregnant," he chuckled.
"Anyway, you should get some rest. I am going to check on Liqing before going to the Xie Family," Su Yang then said.
"Un. I see you later," Lian Li said to him before quickly falling asleep on his bed.
After leaving the Yin Yang Pavilion, Su Yang went to the Medicine Hall to check on Su Liqing.
"Welcome, Su Yang." Su Liqing said to him as she sat on her bed while reading a book.
"Liqing, how's your body?" Su Yang asked her the moment he saw her, and he continued, "Any changes?"
Hearing his words, a bitter smile appeared on Su Liqing's face, and she removed the blanket covering her, revealing to him her flawless figure.
"Unfortunately, there's still no change. Perhaps I am really infertile and unable to get pregnant…" Su Liqing sighed.
Even though her stomach is supposed to be bloating like Lian Li, there were no changes to her body even many months after Su Yang supposedly impregnated her.
"Hmm… I should've done this before, but I wanted to believe that you were pregnant so I purposefully ignored it. Give me your hands, I'll check your body," Su Yang said to her.
Su Liqing nodded and extended her fair hands for him.
Su Yang proceeded to check her pulses and used his spiritual energy to probe deeper into her body.
A few minutes later, Su Yang opened his mouth and said, "Looks like you are really not pregnant. However, there shouldn't be any problem with my Yang Qi, as I'd only released fertile Yang Qi into your body for the past couple of months, so there must be a problem with your reproductive system."
"So it's really my problem…" Su Liqing sighed.
Seeing her dejected face, Su Yang gently pinched her soft cheeks and said with a smile on his face, "Don't worry about it. I have treated hundreds of women who had problems with pregnancy issues— I'll find a cure for you as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Su Yang." Su Liqing said.
"There's no need to be impatient. We'll have plenty of time to make a baby in this life," Su Yang said.
And he continued, "Do you want to cultivate today? If not, I'll head to the Xie Family and start preparing for the cure."
"I'll cultivate," Su Liqing nodded.
A few moments later, Su Yang entered the bed, and they began cultivating with each other. Of course, Su Yang released his fertile Yang Qi into her stomach regardless if Su Liqing can become pregnant or not from it.
After their cultivation, Su Yang left the Medicine Hall and retrieved the flying ship. However, he did not immediately fly to the Xie Family and instead called for Xiao Rong.
"Xiao Rong! Come over here for a moment!" Su Yang said out loud.
A few seconds later, Xiao Rong appeared before him like a ghost.
"Can you do me a favor and go on a small errand for me?" Su Yang said to her, and he continued, "Go to the Holy Central Continent and find Lian Li's parents. Let them know Su Yang had sent you to pick up a few herbs. Oh, you can also tell them about what happened to Patriarch Gold."
"In return for your efforts, I'll do 'that' to you again," Su Yang said to her with a smile.
Xiao Rong's eyes flickered with excitement after hearing his words, as she hasn't felt Su Yang's touch since 3 months ago.
She quickly nodded before disappearing from Su Yang's sight and flew towards the Holy Central Continent at record-breaking speed.
Meanwhile, Su Yang jumped onto the flying ship and soared towards the Xie Family in Snowfall City.
"..."
Xiao Rong arrived at the Holy Central Continent in less than a minute, and she hovered in the air with her small nose moving slightly.
Once she'd picked up a scent that smells similar to Lian Li's scent, Xiao Rong flew towards that location faster than a shooting star, arriving at Emperor Lian's household two seconds later.
Chapter 760 Another List of Medicine
Once Xiao Rong arrived at the Lian Family's household, she spoke in a calm voice that resounded very loudly, startling everyone within the palace.
"Lian Li's parents, come out!"
A few moments later, both Emperor Lian and Feng Xindou came out of the building with a serious and nervous expression on their face.
They flew before Xiao Rong and bowed to her while speaking in a respectful tone, "Welcome to the Lian Family, Senior. How may we assist you today?"
Even though they have never seen Xiao Rong before, they could tell at a glance that she was a profound expert who was stronger than both of them together.
'An extremely beautiful little girl, silver hair, and a face that resembles Fairy Su Yue's facial appearance… Could this be the expert who nearly destroyed the Golden Lion Academy in a single night?! What does she want from us?!' Emperor Lian cried inwardly as he guessed Xiao Rong's identity.
And just as Feng Xindou opened her mouth, Xiao Rong said, "Su Yang sent me here, and he told me to receive some herbs from you."
"S-Su Yang? You're with Su Yang?" Feng Xindou looked at her with a surprised look on her face.
Xiao Rong nodded.
"Oh… thank heavens…" Feng Xindou released a deep sigh of relief after learning Xiao Rong's identity, and she continued to speak without feeling tense or nervous, "Please give me a moment, Senior. I'll go grab the medicine right now."
Feng Xindou returned to the house to grab the medicine while Emperor Lian remained outside with Xiao Rong, feeling incredibly awkward and somewhat nervous due to Xiao Rong's immense yet invisible aura.
"One more thing…" Xiao Rong suddenly said, startling Emperor Lian, "Patriarch Gold… Su Yang told me to tell you about what happened to him."
"Patriarch Gold? How is he related to Su Yang?" Emperor Lian raised his eyebrows.
Xiao Rong proceeded to explain to Emperor Lian about what happened to Patriarch Gold and how he fought Su Yang and brilliantly lost, even being sealed at the bottom of the Jade Sea.
"..."
Emperor Lian's jaw dropped wide open and his eyes widened with shock.
"Patriarch Gold did what?! He went to the Eastern Continent trying to kidnap some woman— Su Yang's woman?!" Emperor Lian was profoundly speechless after realizing the truth.
"Damn! And to think I'd been searching for him for the past year! What a waste of my damn effort!" Emperor Lian cursed loudly.
"Why are you cursing?" Feng Xindou suddenly returned and asked him.
"Well… it's like this…"
Emperor Lian then explained the situation and recalled what Xiao Rong told him not long ago about Patriarch Gold and his deeds.
"What?! How dare he!" Feng Xindou exclaimed in an angry voice, and she continued, "I will personally deal with the Golden Lion Academy after this!"
A few moments later, Feng Xindou handed Xiao Rong a storage ring and said to her, "Everything that Su Yang asked for should be inside. In fact, we made sure there's extra medicine inside," Feng Xindou.
Xiao Rong nodded and accepted the storage ring.
However, right as Xiao Rong turned around and prepared to leave, Feng Xindou suddenly said, "Please wait a minute! If you're with Su Yang, have you seen my daughter Lian Li lately? How is she doing?"
"Lian Li…" Xiao Rong pondered for a few seconds before speaking, "Her stomach is growing bigger."
"Really?! That means she will be giving birth soon, dear!" Feng Xindou said to him with pure excitement on her face, even shaking his body with her hands.
"Our daughter is giving birth already? That's much quicker than I'd expected!" Emperor Lian mumbled in a shocked voice, as he couldn't have imagined that Lian Li would advance so quickly!
"D-Do you think we'll be able to see our grandchildren once she's born?" Feng Xindou asked her.
"I will ask Master," Xiao Rong said with a calm expression.
"Master?"
They looked at Xiao Rong with wide eyes.
Su Yang actually has someone this powerful as a servant? It's no wonder why he's always so overbearing and calm! If they also had someone like Xiao Rong as a servant, they'd be able to conquer the entire world with ease!
Sometime later, Xiao Rong returned to the Eastern Continent. However, since Su Yang had left for the Xie Family, she decided to go into his room and wait for him there.
Meanwhile, at the Xie Family.
"How's your body, Xing'er?" Xie Wang sat on a chair beside Xie Xingfang, who was laying in her bed and gently caressing the bump on her stomach with a passionate gaze.
"I am feeling great," Xie Xingfang said, and she continued, "I am still in the middle stages of pregnancy so it isn't anything too crazy."
After a moment of silence, Xie Wang asked her, "When are you going to tell your father about this? You'd managed to keep it a secret from him by pretending like you are doing secluded cultivation, but I doubt you'll be able to keep this a secret until you give birth."
"I know, grandfather. I have been thinking about this lately, and I plan on telling him soon— sometime this week," Xie Xingfang said.
"Why not tell him today?"
A third voice suddenly resounded in the room, causing the two of them to turn and look at the window.
"Su Yang!" A bright smile appeared on Xie Xingfang's face when she saw him.
"Since you're here, I'll leave you two alone." Xie Wang stood up and prepared to leave the room.
However, Su Yang stopped him and said, "Wait for a second, old man. I need to speak to you about something."
"What is it?" Xie Wang stopped and asked.
"I need the Xie Family's help to find me these medicines," Su Yang handed him a long list.
"Again?" Xie Wang took a glance at the list, and his eyes immediately widened.
When Su Yang saw this, he said with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, I will give you the money to buy these medicines this time."
Chapter 761 I Didn't Know I Was That Strong
"Here, take this."
Su Yang suddenly tossed a storage ring at Xie Wang and said, "There are 100 million spirit stones inside; it should be enough to buy every single ingredient on that list and still have a few million leftovers."
"A hundred million spirit stones…" Xie Wang looked at him with wide eyes. Although he can imagine where he'd obtained this massive wealth, it was still shocking to see someone tossing around 100 million spirit stones without any hesitation.
"Anyway, how's your body, Xing'er?" Su Yang looked at her next with a gentle smile on his face.
"It's growing properly," Xie Xingfang said while rubbing her bloated stomach.
Su Yang chuckled and said, "That's good. Since there are no problems, why don't we show it to your father?"
"Now?" Xie Xingfang asked.
"Yes. The longer we wait, the more he'll feel left out. Although I like messing with him, I am not cruel enough to devoid him of such experiences." Su Yang nodded.
Xie Xingfang also nodded and slowly got off the bed.
"I will speak to my father," she said as she wrapped herself with a thin blanket that covered her bloated stomach.
Sometime later, Xie Wang left to gather the medicine whilst Su Yang and Xie Xingfang went to speak with Lord Xie, who is currently in a meeting with a dozen high-standing individuals from around the Eastern Continent.
"Your Majesty, I think we should do something about the Burning Lotus Sect and their monopoly in the pill industry. This is extremely unhealthy for the business and other competitors as a whole. We cannot allow the Burning Lotus Sect to grow anymore or they'll sooner or later become unstoppable." One of the individuals at the meeting suddenly said.
"I agree with what Senior Ruan just said, Your Majesty. The Burning Lotus Sect currently monopolizes over 95% of the market in pills and medicine, leaving the rest of us without any business. I'm afraid that they might threaten the Xie Family once they are powerful enough."
"The Burning Lotus Sect has been only an above-average sect at best previously, but they suddenly rose to fame after the Earth Advancement Pill was discovered. I understand that this pill was given to them by the Alchemy Master but such an important pill… I think its recipe should be shared so that the cultivation world can see further development." Another one said.
"Indeed. I also find it quite ridiculous that only one person in this world besides the Alchemy Master has the pill recipe for the Earth Advancement Pill. What are we going to do if she suddenly disappears?"
"Your Majesty, perhaps you can persuade Wang Shuren to share the pill recipe. I won't discredit her recent achievements but I don't think someone who was only an auction house manager recently should bear such a heavy responsibility that affects the entire cultivation world."
"Speaking of the Alchemy Master, I heard from the Xiang Family that he's actually Su Yang from the Profound Blossom Sect."
"Su Yang… that number one genius from the Regional Tournament? I also think we should do something about him, as he's getting too powerful too quickly."
"But the Xie Family formed an Alliance with the Profound Blossom Sect… What can we do to him?"
"..."
Lord Xie listened to these people with a pondering expression on his face.
Once they've stopped talking, Lord Xie spoke, "I understand where all of you are coming from, and I only have one thing to say— that you guys have no idea what the real situation is."
"Huh?"
The people there looked at Lord Xie with wide eyes. What is the real situation then?
"Su Yang— he's not who you think he is. As for Wang Shuren… if she's working with Su Yang, I'm afraid there's nothing we can do about her either," Lord Xie said.
"What?! That's absurd! Even if Su Yang is from one of the Four Great Families, he shouldn't hold so much authority and power! He's still only 18 years old!"
Lord Xie shook his head again and said, "As I'd already said, you don't understand the situation. There's nothing you nor I can do about him. However, you are welcomed to try. Just remember what happened to the Million Snakes Sect when they offended him."
"The Million Snakes Sect…"
The experts there looked at each other with their backs soaked in cold sweats.
"What's this? A conversation about me without my presence? That's not very respectful."
A calm voice that did not belong there suddenly resounded.
Everybody in the room then turned to look at the door.
"Y-You are!"
One of the individuals there suddenly stood up and pointed at him with a trembling hand.
"Y-You are that little bastard who trapped me and my disciples for nearly two months at the border of the Southern Region!" Sect Master Qian exclaimed in a shocked voice, as he would never forget Su Yang's face after what had happened before.
Su Yang looked at the old man he'd met during his trip to the bandits' hideout.
"Oh, you're alive." Su Yang spoke in a nonchalant voice.
"H-How dare you lie to me! You said the formation would only last for a month! It lasted for nearly two months! My disciples nearly died of starvation and dehydration!" Sect Master Qian roared loudly.
'What? Su Yang was the one he met at the Southern Region?' Lord Xie's eyes widened with surprise after realizing this. Sect Master Qian had complained to him about this mysterious young man who had unfathomable skills with formations. However, because Sect Master Qian didn't know his identity, there was nothing they could do about it.
'I should've known it was Su Yang when Sect Master Qian called him a handsome young man!' Lord Xie nearly facepalmed himself.
"I didn't lie to you. I merely underestimated my own strength," Su Yang shrugged, and he continued, "I didn't know I was that strong. I'm sorry for the inconvenience."
"Bullshit!" Sect Master Qian nearly puked out a mouthful of blood after hearing Su Yang's half-assed response that did not sound apologetic at all!
Chapter 762 Lord Xie's Reaction
"Anyway, the both of us should leave what happened in the past behind. However, if you want to pursue this matter further than necessary, I'll entertain you," Su Yang said to Sect Master Qian with an overbearing smile on his face.
"You dare to threaten me before His Majesty's presence?! Even if you are Su Yang from the Profound Blossom Sect, you cannot act like there are no responsibilities behind your actions!"
Sect Master Qian then turned to look at Lord Xie and bowed to him, "Your Majesty! This subordinate seeks justice!"
Lord Xie sighed inwardly after seeing this. What does Sect Master Qian want him to do? Punish Su Yang? An Immortal who can overtake the Xie Family and conquer the entire world by himself if he desired?
"If you need someone to apologize to you, I'll do it in their stead, Senior Qian," Another voice suddenly resounded in the room, causing everyone there to look at the entrance again.
"Y-Your Highness!"
The people there were dumbfounded by her sudden appearance. Why did Xie Xingfang suddenly show up? And she was even in such an odd appearance, looking like she'd just gotten out of bed and still had her blankets wrapped around her body.
"W-What did you mean by your words just now, Your Highness?" Sect Master Qian asked her after snapping out of his dazed state. "Why would you apologize to me? You didn't do anything wrong!"
"If my partner did something wrong, I also share the blame. Therefore, if Su Yang had mistreated you, Senior Qian, I'll lower my head and apologize to you if that's what you want." Xie Xingfang said in a calm voice.
"N-No! That wouldn't be necessary, Your Highness! This subordinate would never ask you to lower your head…" Sect Master Qian quickly rejected her suggestion, as that was akin to courting death even if Xie Xingfang didn't mind it.
"Then will you forgive Su Yang for his mistake?" Xie Xingfang then continued.
"I will! I will forgive him!" Sect Master Qian immediately nodded his head with a stiff smile on his face.
"Thank you, Sect Master Qian." Xie Xingfang said with a smile on her face.
"B-By the way, what do you mean by 'partner'?" Someone there suddenly asked a moment later.
"Hm? It means exactly as it sounds, Senior Ruan. Su Yang is my partner." Xie Xingfang responded calmly.
"W-What?!"
Everybody in the room except Lord Xie cried out loud, as this is their first time hearing of such a thing.
Su Yang then wrapped his arms around Xie Xingfang's shoulders and said, "That's right. We're partners."
"B-B-B-B-But you're… You're a dual cultivator!" One of them spoke in a stuttering voice.
"So what if I am a dual cultivator? I can't be with Xing'er because I am a dual cultivator? That doesn't make any sense." Su Yang raised his eyebrows.
"I mean…" The person who just spoke was speechless.
"Anyways, what do you want from me now, Su Yang? I am in the middle of an important meeting if you somehow still haven't realized by now." Lord Xie said to him a moment later.
"Me? I don't need anything from now, nor am I here for you." Su Yang said.
"Then why are you here, interrupting my meeting?" Lord Xie said with a frown.
"Because I am the one who has business here, father. However, since you're busy, we can do this later." Xie Xingfang said to him.
"Xing'er… You just came out of secluded cultivation, right? What do you need from me?" Lord Xie asked her.
"I am here to apologize to you, father, because I have been lying to you for a while now," she said before lowering her head and apologizing, "I am sorry, father, for lying to you."
Lord Xie was baffled. What on earth is happening? What kind of situation is this? What did Xing'er lie to him about?
"I wouldn't call it lying, though." Su Yang suddenly said, and he continued, "She merely kept it a secret from you, so I don't consider that as lying."
Lord Xie frowned, and he turned to look at the other people in the room.
The experts understood the meaning behind Lord Xie's gaze and began walking out of the room, giving them some privacy.
Once the door was closed and they were alone, Lord Xie stood up and walked to stand in front of them.
"Well? What have you been keeping a secret from me?" Lord Xie asked them, his heart beating nervously for some reason.
Xie Xingfang took a deep breath, and she released her grasp on the blanket, allowing it to fall on the ground and revealing her bloated stomach to Lord Xie.
"T-T-That's!!!"
Lord Xie stumbled backward with a terrified look on his face, looking as though he'd just witnessed a ghost.
"I am sorry for keeping it a secret from you, father. I am pregnant with Su Yang's child, and you'll be a grandfather soon…"
*Plop*
Lord Xie fell on his butt after tripping on nothing, nearly hitting the table with the back of his head, and he stared at Xie Xingfang's bloated stomach with his eyes popping out of its sockets.
"Are you okay… father?" Xie Xingfang was speechless after seeing Lord Xie's exaggerated reaction.
However, Lord Xie did not respond and continued to stare at her with a gawking look on his face.
"W-When? How long have you been pregnant? When did it begin?" Lord Xie asked her in a trembling voice after a long moment of silence.
"Right before we returned from the Abandoned Forest with the Purple Qilin's blood…" Xie Xingfang said. "It's been a few months since I've been pregnant."
"Heavens! Does my father know about this?!" Lord Xie then asked.
"Yes… Grandfather has known about it since the very beginning…"
"Then why did you keep it from me?" Lord Xie said.
"Look at how you're reacting. There's your answer," Su Yang said while shaking his head.
"I saw how you'd reacted previously, so I thought it would be for the best to give you some more time before telling you…" Xie Xingfang said, feeling a little guilty about the whole thing now.
Chapter 763 Twins
Sometime later, Lord Xie finally calmed down and said to them, "Congratulations, Xing'er, Su Yang."
"Thank you, father." Xie Xingfang said.
"Do you know if it's a boy or girl yet?" Lord Xie then asked.
Xie Xingfang nodded and said, "It's a girl and a boy!"
"W-What?" Lord Xie's jaw dropped to the floor. "Twins?!"
Xie Xingfang nodded again, and she said while rubbing her stomach which was much larger than Lian Li's stomach despite being i.m.p.r.e.g.n.a.t.ed a bit later, "Yes, I am carrying twins in my stomach right now."
"Heavens… my daughter is carrying twins…" Lord Xie mumbled in a dazed voice, yet a smile appeared on his face a moment later, and he even began chuckling uncontrollably.
"Seeing you laugh is kind of creepy," Su Yang said with raised eyebrows.
Of course, Lord Xie was too happy to care about Su Yang insulting him and continued to laugh regardless.
Sometime later, Su Yang and Xie Xingfang left the place so Lord Xie could continue the meeting with the other seniors.
However, after learning about the twins, Lord Xie was in no mood or the right mindset to continue the meeting so he decided to delay it until a later date.
Meanwhile, back inside Xie Xingfang's room, Su Yang said to her, "Aren't you relieved now that you told him the truth?"
Xie Xingfang nodded, and she said, "Yes. As I'd expected, his reaction was exaggerated. However, I can somewhat understand my father's feelings."
"By the way, I have been thinking about something, Su Yang…"
A perplexed look suddenly appeared on Xie Xingfang's face, and she looked at him with a somewhat hesitant gaze, seemingly having trouble voicing her thoughts.
After sitting on the bed, she spoke in a low voice, "I… I have been thinking about my father... about what will happen to the family once I leave this world with you. Because my mother passed away before she could give birth to a son, my father has placed all of his hopes on me to continue the legacy. However, once I leave this world..."
"You want to leave behind our son in this world so he can continue the family legacy, huh?" Su Yang said with a calm voice, as he'd already predicted this situation the moment he learned that Xie Xingfang carried twins in her stomach.
"T-That's right! But if you're not okay with it…"
"I don't mind," Su Yang interrupted with a calm look on his face.
"Really?" Xie Xingfang looked at him with wide eyes, as she didn't expect him to agree so quickly and easily.
"Really." Su Yang reassured her, and he continued, "If that is your desire, I will support it no matter what. Furthermore, we still have our daughter, so it's not as though we are leaving behind everything, and we might be able to return in the future."
"However, I still don't know if we can return to this place once we leave, so you have to decide whether you really want to leave him behind or not," Su Yang then said. "Are you willing to leave him behind and possibly never see him again?"
Xie Xingfang nodded with a resolute look on her face.
"Then so be it." Su Yang said, and he continued, "When are you going to tell your father?"
"I'll save the announcement for another day— most likely after he's born."
After lingering around for another hour or so speaking with Xie Xingfang, Su Yang left the Xie Family and went to the Burning Lotus Sect to cultivate with Wang Shuren and lecture her.
"How are your children, Su Yang?" Wang Shuren asked him afterward.
"Wu Min and Zhu Jiayi are growing up perfectly fine, whilst Lian Li and Xie Xingfang's stomach is developing nicely. As for Liqing…" Su Yang sighed before continuing, "It appears that she's infertile, so I'll have to concoct some pills for her."
"Infertility?" Wang Shuren's eyes widened after hearing that, and she said, "What kind of pill are you concocting? You can use any ingredients you can find in the Burning Lotus Sect to make the pill if needed."
"Thank you, but the Burning Lotus Sect won't have these ingredients. In fact, I doubt you can find them even in the Eastern Continent," Su Yang sighed.
And he continued, "While half of the ingredients can be found in the Eastern Continent, there are a few incredibly rare ingredients that might exist only in the Divine Heavens. However, I don't plan on waiting around until we return to the Divine Heavens, so I am going to visit the other continents to test my luck there if I cannot obtain them here."
"The other continents?" Wang Shuren looked at him with wide eyes, and she asked him, "Do you know where they are?"
"I only know of the Holy Central Continent and the Southern Continent. However, I have never been to the Western Continent nor the Northern Continent, so I'll need some help with those two places."
"Help? From whom?" Wang Shuren raised her eyebrows, as she doubts anyone in this world would have such knowledge.
"Well, I have someone who has probably seen the entire world already— and more than once," Su Yang said with a smile as Xiao Rong's image appeared in his head.
Sometime later, Su Yang traveled to the Heavenly Swan Sect to cultivate with Bai Lihua and Su Yin before returning to the Profound Blossom Sect a day later.
"Children, huh?" Wang Shuren looked down at her own stomach with a smile on her face.
"I won't be able to focus on improving my alchemy and reach the peak if I had children so I'll wait until I have reached my limits or become a top Alchemy Master before I ask him…" she mumbled in a low voice.
As much as she wanted to join the other ladies and have a child with Su Yang, she also couldn't just give up on her dreams to become a top alchemist in the Divine Heavens. Therefore, she'll focus on alchemy first before thinking about getting pregnant.
Chapter 764 A Great Harvest!
"Master!" Xiao Rong jumped to her feet from the bed the instant Su Yang returned to the Yin Yang Pavilion and entered his room.
"Did you wait for me this entire time?" Su Yang asked her with raised eyebrows.
"Un." Xiao Rong nodded with an innocent face.
"You…" Su Yang was speechless. Did she want to do 'that' that much?
"Master, I have retrieved the ingredients from Lian Li's parents," Xiao Rong said as she handed him the storage ring they'd given her.
"Oh, thank you very much." Su Yang accepted the storage ring before putting it inside his robes.
"Lian Li's parents also told me to ask Master if they can see the baby once it's born," Xiao Rong added a moment later.
"I see," Su Yang nodded and said, "I'll be going to the Holy Central Continent again so I'll let them know myself later. Anyways, I need another favor from you."
"..."
Xiao Rong looked at him with a calm expression on her beautiful face, yet there was a subtle emotion within her gaze.
When Su Yang saw this, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you your reward in a bit. I just want to know where the Northern and Western Continent is located."
"The Northern and Western Continent?" Xiao Rong tilted her head in a puzzled manner.
Su Yang then explained, "The land we're standing on right now is called the Eastern Continent while the place Lian Li and the other two came from is called the Holy Central Continent. As for Qin Lianyu, she came from the Southern Continent, and I want to know where the other two places are located since there should be five continents in this world."
"You have traveled and seen for yourself every land in this world, right? Then you must know about the Western and Northern Continent, as there's no way you would've missed such a large place."
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Rong nodded and said, "Yes, there are two other places besides the Eastern, Southern, and the Holy Central Continent."
"Good, because I will need your directions to those places later," Su Yang said to her.
Xiao Rong nodded her head.
"Anyway, since you have completed my request, I'll reward you now. Take off your clothes and go lay on the bed," Su Yang said to her a moment later.
"Yes, Master!" Xiao Rong quickly removed her clothes in a childish manner before folding them and putting them on the table in a neat and elegant manner, dumbfounding Su Yang.
A few moments later, Xiao Rong sat on the bed with her petite body completely n.a.k.e.d and anticipation in her gaze as she patiently waited for Su Yang.
Su Yang approached the bed, and he laid Xiao Rong on the bed.
He then used his hands to gently caress Xiao Rong all over her petite body for a few minutes before he used his fingers to gently pinch and rub the pink n.i.p.p.l.es on her small b.r.e.a.s.ts.
"Mmm…"
Xiao Rong laid still on the bed with her limbs spread while releasing a low m.o.a.n as she familiarized herself with the sensation of pleasure tickling her body as it'd been a while since she last experienced such a feeling.
After teasing Xiao Rong's small b.r.e.a.s.ts for a couple more minutes, Su Yang moved his hands lower on her body until he reached the small and closed slit between her slender legs.
"Aaah…"
Xiao Rong's m.o.a.ning grew louder once Su Yang began touching her little sister, and her cave began flowing with Yin Qi a few moments later.
"Hmmm… Although I cannot cultivate your Yin Qi, I cannot watch it go to waste…"
Su Yang then retrieved a glass vial and placed it directly below Xiao Rong's slit to collect her Yin Qi.
'Although the Yin Qi will degrade in quality over time, if I preserve it like medicine or pills, I can prevent it to a certain extent and save it for later when I can actually cultivate it.' Su Yang thought to himself.
While preserved Yang Qi or Yin Qi cannot last as long as preserved medicine or pills, it would last long enough for Su Yang to use it in the future.
Meanwhile, Xiao Rong had no idea what Su Yang was doing or why he was collecting her 'liquid', but she didn't care what he was doing as long as he continued to please her body.
The glass of vial filled up very quickly with Xiao Rong's Yin Qi, and once it was almost completely filled, Su Yang sealed it with a talisman before taking out another vial to continue collecting even more of Xiao Rong's Yin Qi.
A few hours later, Su Yang managed to fill 10 bottles of Yin Qi from Xiao Rong— or more precisely, Xiao Rong had released enough Yin Qi to fill ten whole bottles!
And while the bottles had barely enough space to fit two fingers inside, it was still a lot of Yin Qi.
"Okay, I'll end this here today," Su Yang said to Xiao Rong as he sealed the tenth bottle of Yin Qi.
Xiao Rong nodded, but her body was too sensitive to move, so she continued to lay on his bed even after it ended.
Meanwhile, Su Yang looked at the bottles of Yin Qi with a satisfied look on his face.
'What a great harvest. With this much Yin Qi, if I can somehow cultivate it, I would definitely enter the Sovereign Spirit Realm with ease and probably even the Divine Spirit Realm!' Su Yang thought to himself.
But alas, in order to cultivate Xiao Rong's Yin Qi, he'd need to improve his cultivation a lot more, and by the time he can cultivate Xiao Rong's Yin Qi, it wouldn't be as effective, but that's not to say it wouldn't benefit his cultivation at all. In fact, he can probably still gain a few levels if he continues to collect Xiao Rong's Yin Qi!
Chapter 765 Do You Think You Can Help Me Again?
"Xiao Rong, starting today, whenever I am free, I'll please your body," Su Yang said to Xiao Rong afterward putting away her Yin Qi.
"Okay!" Xiao Rong immediately agreed since she couldn't ask for anything more than this!
Sometime later, Su Yang went to speak with Liu Lanzhi about his small trip.
"Huh? You're going to the other continents again?" Liu Lanzhi looked at him with her eyebrows raised.
Su Yang nodded and said, "I need to collect some medicine for Liqing, and I highly doubt I'll be able to find them in the Eastern Continent."
"Liqing? Did something happen to her? Is she injured or sick? I hope she's okay..." Liu Lanzhi asked with a worried look on her face.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. She's only having trouble getting pregnant," Su Yang said.
"She's having trouble with pregnancy? Infertility?" Liu Lanzhi looked at him with a dumbfounded look, as she would've never imagined that Su Liqing would actually be infertile.
"That appears to be the case, so I am going to concoct a pill to heal her body," Su Yang nodded.
"I see… I didn't know such a thing existed in this world… Of course, in your case…" Liu Lanzhi showed a bittersweet smile on her face.
"Anyway, I am going to leave in a few days. If you need anything, let me know before then."
Liu Lanzhi nodded and said, "I am already used to operating the Profound Blossom Sect alone. You don't have to worry about me anymore, Su Yang."
"That's good to hear."
Once Su Yang left the room a few moments later, Liu Lanzhi sighed in a low voice, "If I don't learn to take care of the sect by myself, who else is going to protect the sect when you leave this world, Su Yang? It's not as if I can just find anybody to take your spot after you leave…"
Sometime later, Su Yang spoke to his family about his plans.
"Lian Li, you'd mentioned that you wanted to look at the other continents, right? Do you still want to come despite your condition right now?" Su Yang asked her.
Lian Li looked at her stomach for a second before nodding her head and speaking, "Of course. If I don't take this chance to explore now, I will no longer have that option once our baby is born."
"Very well, I'll be taking you with me then," Su Yang said.
After speaking with Lian Li and the other goddesses, Su Yang went to knock on Qiuyue's door, and he said to her from outside, "I'll be traveling to the other continents for a while. If you need me, you know how to contact me."
After a moment of silence, Qiuyue's voice resounded: "Okay."
Su Yang left her room shortly after to prepare for his journey.
A few days later, once Su Yang finished all of his appointments with the disciples, Su Yang brought Lian Li and Xiao Rong with him to the Holy Central Continent.
Meanwhile, Qiuyue stood by the window and watched as her flying boat disappeared into the horizon.
"Sister Lingxi… What should I do now?" Qiuyue sighed in a dejected voice.
Ever since Tang Lingxi left, Qiuyue has been feeling a lot lonelier, almost like she'd just lost a close friend, as she was used to having conversations with Tang Lingxi on a daily basis that she normally wouldn't be able to talk about with others, especially Su Yang, because she would be too embarrassed.
Sometime later, on the other side of the world, Su Yang and Lian Li returned to the Holy Central Continent.
"I didn't think we would return to this place so quickly after leaving. It almost makes me feel embarrassed to be here." Lian Li said with a bittersweet smile on her face.
A few minutes later, they entered the Lian Family's household.
"Where are my parents?" Lian Li wondered to herself.
"Why don't we call them?" Su Yang said before turning to look at Xiao Rong and nodding his head.
A moment later, Xiao Rong released a small portion of her aura, immediately filling the entire building with an overbearing pressure.
A few moments later, Feng Xindou could be seen flying towards them with somewhat messy clothes.
Lian Li raised her eyebrows after seeing her mother's appearance that looked like she'd just gotten out of bed. However, it was way past morning so it didn't make sense for her to wake up now.
Meanwhile, Su Yang immediately understood the situation and chuckled, "It seems like your husband is finally fulfilling his duties as your husband."
"Eh?" Lian Li looked at Feng Xindou with wide eyes as she finally understood the situation.
"I-I'm so sorry for appearing before you in such a fashion! We weren't expecting any visitors today…" Feng Xindou hastily apologized to them, and she turned to look at Su Yang with a somewhat embarrassed look on her face, looking like someone who'd been caught in the act.
However, Su Yang remained calm and spoke, "Don't worry about it— we were the ones who came here unannounced. If you'd like, you can even return to finish your business. We have plenty of time, anyway."
"That won't be necessary…" Feng Xindou shook her head with a bittersweet smile.
Su Yang looked at her with a calm gaze, and he noticed a line of clear liquid flowing down her legs a second later.
Seeing this, he smiled and said, "The technique I gave your husband isn't something that can be mastered in just a few months; it'll probably take a few more years before you can be satisfied with him."
"A… A few more years…?" Feng Xindou looked at him with a baffled look on her face.
After a long moment of silence, Feng Xindou approached Su Yang and whispered in his ears, "I know this is extremely shameless of me but do you think… Do you think you can help me again just this once since you are already here? If I don't satisfy this unsatisfied feeling in my body, I might go crazy!"
Chapter 766 Emperor Lian's Resolve
"Are you sure you want me to help you? What about your husband?" Su Yang did not immediately reject Feng Xindou's request and instead asked her that question.
"Don't worry, I'll talk to him about it so there won't be any problems," Feng Xindou said to him.
"Anway, I'll be right back!"
Feng Xindou quickly returned to the bedroom where Emperor Lian was getting dressed, and she said to him, "Su Yang and Lian Li are here."
"What? What are the two of them doing here? I didn't expect them to show up until after the baby was born…" Emperor Lian said with a dumbfounded look on his face.
"I don't know why they're here, and there's no use in guessing when we can just ask them later."
Emperor Lian nodded and prepared to walk outside.
However, Feng Xindou suddenly stopped him and said, "Wait a second, dear."
"What is it? If you're talking about that, we can finish it once they're gone."
Feng Xindou shook her head and then said, "To tell you the truth, your techniques are absolutely weak and unsatisfactory, so I went ahead and asked Su Yang to help me relieve my Yin Qi just now, as I feel like I might go crazy if I do not relieve this feeling in my body."
Emperor Lian's jaw dropped when he heard her words. However, before he could even speak, Feng Xindou continued—
"I know you're working hard to satisfy me and trying your best to learn the technique as fast as possible, but I am simply left yearning for more every time we do it, and I don't think I can last any longer like this. Therefore, I suggest that we let Su Yang help me until you are able to satisfy me. This will probably sound like an excuse to you but I… I am really afraid of returning to that condition, and I'd rather die than to live that kind of life again!"
"..."
Emperor Lian closed his eyes with his fists tightly clenched together, clearly trying to resist his emotions.
Feng Xindou felt extremely guilty when she saw this, but she really wanted to relieve herself, especially if she might return to her crippled state again.
After a moment of silence, Emperor Lian took a deep breath and released it, relaxing his fists and body.
"I should be the one apologizing, my wife… for being unable to satisfy you. I thought that I was doing a good job because you didn't complain, but alas, to think I was only satisfying myself this entire time while you are feeling the complete opposite— I am truly sorry for being a useless husband…" Emperor Lian lowered his head at her.
"If you need someone else to relieve you, I won't blame you, nor will I see it as cheating. In fact, I would even have told you to do the same if I'd known about your situation earlier."
Emperor Lian then continued, "I also cannot bear to see you in that condition again, so do whatever you must. I'll continue to practice the techniques Su Yang gave me so I won't lose you permanently. Of course, even if you still decide to leave me afterward, I won't complain about it."
Feng Xindou covered her mouth when she saw this and even felt the urge to cry.
"You silly, I would never leave you. This is only a temporary treatment. Furthermore, Su Yang belongs to our daughter, Lian Li, and she is even bearing his child right at this moment. Even I am not shameless enough to go after the same man as my daughter."
Emperor Lian nodded, and the two of them went to greet Su Yang after they fixed their appearances.
"Once again, I am sorry for showing up in such an inappropriate appearance before," Feng Xindou said to them.
"Come over here, Su Yang. I would like to speak with you privately for a moment," Emperor Lian then said to him.
Su Yang nodded and followed him to an empty room.
"I have heard everything from my wife, and as much as I hate to admit it, I cannot satisfy my wife despite learning the technique you've given me, even doing the complete opposite. I am a complete failure of a husband. Therefore, I am asking you to help me satisfy my wife in my stead," Emperor Lian said to him with a serious look on his face.
Su Yang was speechless. Although this is not the first time he's had another man asking him to satisfy their wife, it is still an incredibly rare instance.
Emperor Lian continued to speak before Su Yang could open his mouth, "However, don't be mistaken, Su Yang. I am not giving you my wife! I am merely letting you 'treat' her until I can do it myself! And I swear it won't be long before you are no longer necessary in my wife's life!"
Su Yang smiled after hearing his words, and he said, "Are you sure? She might not want to return to your side if you make her wait too long."
Emperor Lian clenched his teeth together when he heard Su Yang's words, as that was what he feared the most in this situation.
"That won't happen!" Emperor Lian claimed in a confident voice.
"Oh? What makes you so confident? I'll let you know that I am also pretty confident in my experience with stealing wives from their husbands. If I am serious, I can steal Feng Xindou from you in a single night," Su Yang said with a villainous grin on his face.
"..." Emperor Lian's heart trembled after seeing Su Yang's evil grin, and he could somehow tell that Su Yang wasn't bragging nor joking. If Su Yang really wanted to take Feng Xindou from him, there was nothing he could do to stop Su Yang!
"I'm joking," Su Yang suddenly said, dumbfounding Emperor Lian.
"I really admire your ability to let another man go near your wife because I certainly wouldn't be able to do the same, so I won't steal her from you. I am satisfied with just Lian Li since she's an amazing woman."
"However, if you cannot master the technique before I leave this world in one year, I'll definitely steal her from you no matter what you say because I would be harming her— even killing her by letting her stay with someone who cannot help her condition. Do you understand me?" Su Yang said to Emperor Lian with a serious look on his face.
Emperor Lian nodded with a resolute expression.
Chapter 767 Dew of Life
After their private conversation, Su Yang and Emperor Lian returned to Lian Li and Feng Xindou's side.
"Are you okay?" Feng Xindou asked Emperor Lian afterward when she saw his sweaty face.
"Yes, I am okay." Emperor Lian nodded.
A few moments later, he turned to look at Su Yang and spoke, "Anyway, what do you want? Surely, you didn't come all the way here just to ruin my marriage, right?"
Su Yang smiled and said, "I need ingredients and treasures."
"Ingredients again? We gave you everything you asked for just a few days ago! Furthermore, we even gave you more than you needed!" Emperor Lian said with a dumbfounded look on his face.
"I know, but I need other ingredients this time, and there's a good chance I won't be able to find them in the Eastern Continent, so I am traveling to every continent to see if I can find them there."
Su Yang then handed Emperor Lian a list of medicines.
"Well? Do you recognize any of these?"
After looking at the list, Emperor Lian shook his head and said, "No, I don't."
However, Feng Xindou pointed to one of the names on the list and said, "I know of the Dew of Life; it's an incredibly rare treasure that has only appeared once 1,000 years ago, and it was auctioned off for a few hundred million spirit stones at that time."
"Oh? Who bought it? Do you know if they still have it or not?" Su Yang asked.
"If I recall correctly, it should be the Ruan Family. However, whether they still have the treasure or not I have no clue. I'm sorry that I cannot be more useful."
Su Yang shook his head and said, "No, this information is more than enough."
Sometime later, Feng Xindou turned to look at Lian Li and said, "I didn't get to say this before but congratulations on becoming a mother, Li'er."
"Thank you, mother."
"Anyway, I'll give the Ruan Family a visit right now. Once I return, I will help you." Su Yang said with his gaze on Feng Xindou.
Feng Xindou nodded and said, "I'll prepare myself in the meantime."
"Do you want to stay here with them?" Su Yang asked Lian Li next.
"Will you be okay by yourself? The Ruan Family is one of the top families in the Holy Central Continent. It might be difficult to meet with them if I am not with you," Lian Li said.
"My daughter is right, Su Yang. Although I won't call them unreasonable, the Ruan Family does not like outsiders. It will be better to have Li'er with you." Feng Xindou said.
Su Yang chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I have a plan. They'll meet me even if they don't want to. Lian Li, you can stay here and spend some time with your family. After all, once you leave this world with me, you won't get such chances anymore."
"If you say so…" Lian Li nodded.
"As long as that plan doesn't involve destroying the Ruan Family or involve us…" Emperor Lian added afterward.
"By the way, where is this Ruan Family?" Su Yang then asked.
"You can find them 200,000 miles to the west within a city called Crane City," Feng Xindou said.
A few minutes later, Su Yang left the building with Xiao Rong and traveled to this Crane City.
Meanwhile, after talking with Lian Li for a little longer, Feng Xindou went to the bathroom to clean her body in preparation for her treatment.
As for Emperor Lian, he returned to his own room and retrieved the cultivation technique Su Yang gave him and began practicing it.
Sometime later, Su Yang arrived at Crane City with Xiao Rong sitting on his shoulder in her cat form.
"Where can I find the Ruan Family?" Su Yang asked the guards at the entrance before entering the city.
"The Ruan Family? They're currently away from the city to participate in the annual gathering with a few other families," said the guard.
"What business do you have with the Ruan Family? Depending on the urgency, I might be able to help," said another guard who belonged to the Ruan Family.
"I am here to talk to them about the Dew of Life," said Su Yang.
"Dew of Life?"
The guards looked at each other before they burst out laughing.
"Hahaha! Don't tell me you're here for their Dew of Life, too?" The guards then asked him.
"Don't even bother, young man! The Ruan Family won't hand it over to anybody no matter what you offer them."
Su Yang raised his eyebrows, and he said, "So they still have the Dew of Life? That's good to know."
"Of course. The Dew of Life is an incredibly rare treasure that is said to have the ability to resurrect even the dead. What could possibly be worth more than a person's life?"
"Resurrect the dead? Which idiot spread such a rumor?" Su Yang shook his head. "The treasure may be rare, but it isn't that powerful or has any practical use."
"Anyway, where can I find the Ruan Family now?" Su Yang then asked.
"Didn't you hear what I'd just said? The Ruan Family won't trade or sell the Dew of Life for anything! You're basically wasting your time right now," said the guard.
"That's fine. I have nothing else to do anyway," Su Yang shrugged.
The guard sighed, and he said, "You can find them at Wuxi City with the Gao Family and many other top families. They're only a few thousand miles to the north. Don't say I didn't warn you, though."
"Many thanks," Su Yang said to the guard before flying away, feeling quite fortunate that the Dew of Life existed in this world.
Sometime later, Su Yang arrived at a small city.
"Is this Wuxi City?" Su Yang asked the guards there.
"Yes. What business do you have here?"
"I'm looking for the Gao Family— mostly the Ruan Family that's with them, though."
"The Gao and Ruan Family? They should be at the Ancestral Pavilion right now," said the guard.
Chapter 768 Public Bathhouse
Hearing the guard's words, Su Yang asked, "Where's the Ancestral Pavilion? If you don't mind, can one of you take me there?"
Su Yang retrieved a handful of spirit stones and showed it to the guards there.
*Gulp*
The guards swallowed nervously when they saw the spirit stones, and they turned to look at each other with weird looks on their faces.
"I'll take you there, Young Master!"
"No! Let me take you there, my little ancestor!"
"Please! I am extremely tight on money right now! I really need those spirit stones!"
"I also need to feed my family!"
The guards quickly began fighting over each other for the opportunity to earn so many spirit stones in such an easy manner. Hell, Su Yang's request was so easy and simple to achieve that he was practically giving them free money!
However, while the guards fought each other, someone approached Su Yang from behind and tugged his robes.
"Hmm?"
Su Yang turned around to see a little girl who seemed to be only around 10 years old grasping his robes, and she was wearing ragged clothes and holding a dirty cup in her hands.
"Big brother, I can bring you to the Ancestral Pavilion, and I will only accept one of those spirit stones from you," she said to him with a pleading gaze.
"Eh?"
The guards immediately stopped fighting when they saw this, and they even felt a little shameful a few moments later.
"Okay. If you can bring me to the Ancestral Pavilion, I will give you a spirit stone." Su Yang nodded at the little girl with a handsome smile on his face.
He then turned to look at the guards and said, "As you can see, I already have someone helping me. However, since you guys were so eager to help me, I'll give you these. Make sure to share them evenly with each other."
Su Yang tossed the spirit stones at them, and the guards immediately went to catch them.
"Let's go, little girl." Su Yang said to her.
The little girl nodded and began leading him into the city.
However, before they could walk very far, Su Yang said to her, "Why don't we take a small detour? I am someone who likes cleanliness, and when I see a girl— no matter who they are— in such a rough appearance, my heart becomes uncomfortable."
The little girl looked at her own appearance before lowering her head in a dejected manner, "I am sorry, big brother, but I don't have anything else…"
"I know, that's why we are going to take a detour. Do you know any places where you can clean your body?" Su Yang asked her.
The little girl nodded and said, "There's a public bathhouse not too far away."
"Good, then let's go there now."
"But I need money to go there and I don't have any," she continued.
"Don't worry, I'll pay for it."
The little girl nodded again and changed directions.
A few minutes later, they arrive at this building that emitted a fragrance smell the moment they approached it.
Once they were at the counter, Su Yang placed a single spirit stone on the table before the worker there and said, "Clean this little girl here and you can have the entire thing."
The young lady working behind the desk immediately widened her eyes when she saw the spirit stone that was worth more than ten years of her pay.
"I-I get to keep this spirit stone? Really?" The young lady asked him in a doubtful voice, as it sounded too good to be true.
"You can keep it in your pockets while you clean her if you'd like," Su Yang said to her.
"Thank you very much, Young Master!" The young lady looked around to make sure nobody was watching before she quickly stored the spirit stone in her pockets.
"Do you have any clean clothes for her?" The young lady then asked him. "If we put these clothes back on her afterward, it would make cleaning her pointless…"
"I will bring back something by the time you're done," Su Yang said to her.
"Okay." The young lady nodded.
"Come with me, I'll make you clean again." The young lady then brought the little girl into the back and began cleaning her.
Meanwhile, Su Yang went outside to buy some new clothes for the little girl.
Inside the shower, the young lady asked the little girl.
"What's your relationship with that handsome young man?" she couldn't help but be curious about their relationship.
"I don't know him," the little girl responded.
"Eh? You don't know each other? Then why is he helping you? And why are you following him? He may look like a noble gentleman on the outside, but one's appearance can be very deceiving… Who knows, he might even be a pervert who's only cleaning you so he can eat you afterward!" The young lady exclaimed in a shocked voice.
"Eat me? Why would big brother eat me? I am not tasty..." The little girl asked in an innocent voice.
"Uhh… then what are you doing with him?" The young lady decided to ask her.
The little girl then explained the situation to the young lady cleaning her, clearing up some misunderstandings.
"The Ancestral Pavilion? Only the wealthiest people go there! As expected of someone who can afford to give away a spirit stone for something so simple without batting an eye!" The young lady then sighed, "Haaa… If only I had a husband as wealthy and handsome as that young man…"
Sometime later, the young lady finished cleaning the little girl, and she went outside to look for Su Yang for the clothes.
Once Su Yang handed her the clothes he'd just bought, she went back inside to dress up the little girl.
A few more minutes later, the little girl returned with the young lady.
When Su Yang saw the little girl's new appearance, he nodded with a smile on his face, "As expected, you look much better like that— almost like a young lady from some powerful family."
Chapter 769 Ruan Family
"Thank you, Young Master, for your business here."
The young lady bowed to Su Yang afterward.
Su Yang nodded and suddenly tossed a few more spirit stones at her, "That's your tip for doing a good job."
The young lady went to catch the glistening spirit stones in a hasty manner, feeling her heart throbbing like crazy afterward.
"Let's go. Now I feel more comfortable with you walking around me in that appearance," Su Yang said to the little girl as he turned around and began walking out of the building.
"T-Thank you, Young Master! I will never forget this!" The young lady working at the bathhouse kowtowed to him as Su Yang left the place with the little girl following behind him.
Once they were outside, the little girl continued to lead Su Yang to the Ancestral Pavilion, which took them a little over one hour to walk there.
On their way to the Ancestral Pavilion, Su Yang's handsome appearance and alluring aura attracted countless gazes in the streets from the pedestrians, mostly the women regardless of their age, almost like they have never seen a man as handsome as Su Yang before.
Sometime later, the little girl stopped walking before a massive building that had the sign 'Ancestral Pavilion' placed in the front in a domineering manner.
"Big brother, we're here. This is the Ancestral Pavilion," said the little girl.
"I see… Thank you for taking me here. Here's your spirit stone as promised," Su Yang said as he handed her a sparkling spirit stone.
The little girl smiled for the first time when she held the spirit stone in her small hands.
"Thank you, big brother. I will go now," she bowed to him before turning around.
However, Su Yang suddenly stopped her and said, "Wait a second, little girl. Why don't you stay with me for a little bit longer? I might have another job for you later."
Hearing the words, the little girl nodded with eagerness in her eyes.
"Good, then come with me." Su Yang said as he approached the building.
"Welcome to the Ancestral Pavilion."
One of the workers there approached Su Yang when he noticed them walking inside the building.
"Do you have a reservation with us today?"
"No, I don't," Su Yang responded with a nonchalant look on his face.
"Then are you here to dine with us today? Although it's full right now, if you wait an hour, there should be more room."
"I am not here to dine either. I am looking for the Ruan Family," Su Yang said.
"T-The Ruan Family?" The worker there looked at Su Yang with raised eyebrows.
"Which family do you belong to? Only those who are on the reservation lists are allowed to see them," said the worker.
Su Yang smiled and said, "I belong to the Su Family."
"Su Family? I have never heard of such a…" The worker suddenly paused in the middle of his sentence, and he stared at Su Yang with wide eyes.
"W-What is your name again, esteemed guest?"
"Su Yang," he said calmly.
"S-Su Yang!" The worker repeated in a shocked voice. Could this handsome young man be 'that' Su Yang?! Immortal Fairy Su Yue's rumored husband?!
"Here, why don't we make this easier?" Su Yang suddenly retrieved a storage pouch and began pouring out spirit stones in front of the worker like they're trash.
"Will you let me speak with the Ruan Family now? I won't take too long." Su Yang asked him with a seemingly friendly smile.
"Uhh… esteemed guest… this is…" The worker became speechless after seeing the small mountain of spirit stones in front of him.
Even the little girl couldn't help but stare at the glistening mountain with wide eyes.
"So? Which room are they in right now?" Su Yang asked the worker without even giving him the time to think.
"R-Right! They're on the 3rd floor— they've reserved the entire floor." The worker unconsciously responded.
"Thank you," said Su Yang as he walked past the worker and approached the staircase that was at the end of the building.
Meanwhile, the worker quickly began stuffing as many spirit stones as he could into his pockets before other workers there noticed the situation and also began taking some of the spirit stones.
Once Su Yang reached the third floor, he could already see over a hundred people in the room chatting with each other while eating their meals.
Furthermore, there was a stage in the middle of this floor, and there were two young Cultivators at the True Spirit Realm sparring with each other on the stage whilst the others watched and cheered.
"Hahaha! Get him Ruan Li!"
"Show him what you're made of, Gao Chen!"
People from these two families shouted loudly.
Su Yang looked at the side that was cheering for this 'Ruan Li' individual and quickly found someone that is likely to be the patriarch of the family— a middle-aged man with an overbearing aura and cultivation at the first level of the Sovereign Spirit Realm.
Su Yang then grabbed an empty chair before approaching this middle-aged man who had a beautiful woman sitting on his right side and a handsome young man sitting on the other side.
The people there quickly noticed Su Yang's presence because of his handsome face and powerful aura that could not be ignored.
"Who's that handsome young man? I don't remember someone like him belonging to any family here!"
"I also don't recognize him, but I can tell he's from a powerful family just from his aura alone!"
Sometime later, Su Yang arrived before this middle-aged man and placed the chair down.
After sitting down, Su Yang asked the middle-aged man with a calm look on his face, "Are you the head of the Ruan Family?"
The middle-aged man immediately frowned and said, "Who the hell are you? And which imbecile gave you permission to come here? Stop blocking my view of the stage and get out of here before I help you!"
Chapter 770 Negotiations
"You're going to kick me out without asking for my identity and purpose for coming here? You're quite the impatient man," Su Yang shook his head and turned to look at the beautiful woman beside him and continued to speak, "Is he like that in the bedroom, too?"
"YOU LITTLE BASTARD! WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" The middle-aged man immediately stood up and roared. "HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME, RUAN ZONGZE, IN SUCH A MANNER?!"
Meanwhile, the woman beside him covered her face with a shocked look on her face.
The entire place quickly turned dead silent, and even the two fighters on the stage stopped fighting to look at them with startled looks on their faces.
Su Yang remained calm and said, "My surname is Su— Su Yang, and I am here regarding the Dew of Life."
"Dew of Life? HAHAHAHAHA!" Ruan Zongze burst out laughing after hearing Su Yang's words, even ignoring his name that sounded awfully familiar for some reason.
"So you turned out to be another idiot trying to obtain the Dew of Life from us, huh? Well, good luck with that! Because you'll never obtain the Dew of Life now! Not that you would've had the chance even if you didn't piss me the fuck off just now!"
"Are you sure? Perhaps we can negotiate. I might have a few things that might be of your interest." Su Yang remained calm and continued to speak as though there was still a chance for him.
"Negotiate? Which part of 'you'll never get it' don't you understand?" Ruan Zongze coldly snorted, and he continued, "Somebody get this idiot out of my face before I lose my damn mind!"
A few people in the room immediately stood up and approached Su Yang after hearing Ruan Zongze's words, but Su Yang did not budge even an inch and spoke, "Are you sure about that? You might lose out on the opportunity to obtain 5 Immortal-grade cultivation techniques."
"What did you just say? 5 Immortal-grade techniques?" Ruan Zongze raised his eyebrows in a surprised manner when he heard Su Yang's words, but he laughed again a moment later.
"Ahaha! As if you'd have 5 Immortal-grade techniques! Not even the Lian Family would have so many!"
"Oh? If you don't believe me, I can offer something else— like eternal beauty and youth for that beautiful woman over there." Su Yang suddenly turned his attention to the beautiful woman sitting beside Ruan Zongze.
"What?" Ruan Zongze's eyes widened with surprise by Su Yang's unexpected offer.
"I have a pill recipe that can grant any woman eternal youth and beauty without any side-effects, and they will work on even mortals who have not cultivated before. What do you think, Madam?" Su Yang did not even bother to look at Yuan Zongze and asked the woman directly.
The woman narrowed her eyes before asking, "Why are you asking me? Does it look like I have the ability to give you the Dew of Life? You're talking to the wrong person."
"I don't know if you have the ability or not, but I do know that you definitely have more authority than this loudmouth here just from your aura alone," Su Yang said with a smile on his face.
"Oh?" The woman raised her eyebrows in a surprised manner. "I'm impressed. And you are right, I do have more authority than my husband here because I wasn't the one who married into his family— it's the other way around. I am the Matriarch of the Ruan Family— Ruan Xiao Qing."
"You said your name is Su Yang, right? Are you related to Immortal Fairy Su Yue by any chance?" Ruan Xiao Qing suddenly asked him. "Judging by your aura alone, I can tell that you also have an extraordinary background."
"What?! Immortal Fairy Su Yue?! How can this rude prick be related to someone as elegant as her?!" Ruan Rongze exclaimed in a shocked voice, as did the other families in the room.
However, Su Yang did not respond to Ruan Xiao Qing's question and merely silently smiled at her.
"I see…" Ruan Xiao Qing narrowed her eyes at Su Yang.
"Since you are related to Immortal Fairy Su Yue, I cannot just send you away. You wanted to negotiate, right? I can do that. As for your offer, although this pill of yours is a very tempting offer for me, I cannot justify trading the Dew of Life for a mere pill. After all, the Dew of Life is my Ruan Family's most valuable treasure that has been with us for over a thousand years."
"What if I add in 5 Immortal-grade cultivation techniques into that offer?" Su Yang then asked.
"Five Immortal-grade cultivation techniques… Do you really have that many of them?" Ruan Xiao Qing asked him with a doubtful gaze.
"I have more than 5, and I'll even let you pick which techniques you want."
"Hmm…" Ruan Xiao Qing immediately turned silent to ponder, as 5 Immortal-grade cultivation techniques was an offer that cannot be ignored regardless of their status.
"I don't think we should trust him, my dear… Even if he's related to Immortal Fairy Su Yue, we still don't know his background, and we don't know if what he is saying is true or not. Who knows, maybe even the Immortal-grade techniques are fake."
Ruan Xiao Qing turned to look at Ruan Zongze and spoke in a low voice, "Do you really not recognize his name, Su Yang? That's Immortal Fairy Su Yue's husband!"
"What?!" Ruan Zongze exclaimed, and he immediately became silent.
Sometime later, Ruan Xiao Qing looked at Su Yang again and said, "If you don't mind, can we look at these Immortal-grade cultivation techniques first before we decide?"
"Sure." Su Yang nodded, and he continued, "If the pill and the Immortal-grade cultivation techniques aren't enough, I can offer you one more thing."
"Oh? What might that be?" Ruan Xiao Qing asked him with her interest piqued.
Su Yang smiled, and he spoke in a slow but clear voice, "Satisfaction."
