Hong Ling could only sigh after her daughter told her everything. “You can go back to your room, and I will look for information about that man first.”

“Haha.” Du Yanyao laughed at that and ran out. “Mother! You have to help me get that handsome brother!”

After her daughter left, Hong Ling called someone to meet her, and a young woman soon arrived. “Ming, I want you to follow Yueling’s group, and you should keep an eye on the three people with her.”

“Yes, Mistress.”

“Who exactly are they? Yueling has just recovered after being sick for so long, but she suddenly got close to two foreign men.” Hong Ling herself was curious about the identities of Ling Yun and Xiao Xiao. “Moreover, who is that little girl? How could her strength be on par with my husband?”

After they strolled around the city, Tian Yueling took them to her clan. At first, Ling Yun was hesitant about going to the Tian Clan, but Zhao Yu convinced him that the people of that clan were different from other clans. Besides, Tian Huang was his master, so he agreed with it.

“Where have you been, Yueling?” Ran Chenxin immediately asked as soon as they entered the main hall, and Tian Kong kept his eyes on them.

Ling Yun silently checked their status, but he didn’t see anything unusual, and their cultivation was also very high.

Zhao Yu told them first. “This guy is Mo Chen, and the other one is his wife, Xiao Xiao, but she dresses like a man in disguise.”

“Huh?” Both of them were surprised and focused their gazes on Ling Yun, especially Ran Chenxin.

“Mother, you don’t need to look at him like that.” Tian Yueling said as she shook her head. “Anyway, they will be returning to their residence today, and I will be coming with them.”

Suddenly, Ran Chenxin ran towards them and grabbed Ling Yun’s hand, and she dragged him along with her, causing all of them to baffle.

Meanwhile, Ling Yun followed Ran Chenxin helplessly, especially since her cultivation was far above his.

“Mother!” Tian Yueling shouted and wanted to chase them.

But Zhou Yu immediately stopped her. “Chenxin just wants to talk to him, and she might agree if you become his partner later.”

“Humph! Even if my mother agrees with that, the decision is in my hands, and I won’t decide too quickly.” Tian Yueling replied with a snort, and she then grabbed Xiao Xiao’s hand. “Come with me; I will show you my clan.”

“All right.”

After they left, Tian Kong asked Zhou Yu. “Did he really come from the lower realm? Even though his cultivation is still in the mortal realms, I can feel a powerful aura from him, and it’s almost on par with my father’s.”

“You’re not wrong about that.” Zhou Yu responded by nodding. “However, I won’t explain it to you in detail, and I dare to guarantee that he is the most suitable man to be Yueling’s husband, so I hope you don’t stop them from getting closer.”

Tian Kong shook his head at her. “As my daughter said just now, the decision is in her hands, and I won’t stop them if Yueling falls in love with Mo Chen later. Besides, he is my father’s sole disciple, so he is already part of this clan.”

“That’s good.” Zhou Yu felt satisfied hearing that.

“However, I’m not sure if Mo Chen will be interested in my daughter, especially since he already has such a beautiful wife.” Tian Kong said with a heavy sigh because he knew his daughter’s character very well. “Besides, Yueling is too spoiled, and her attitude is also quite rude.”

“Haha.” Zhou Yu laughed at that. “You don’t need to worry about that; Mo Chen is more experienced than you about women, so I’m sure that he can discipline Yueling.”

Tian Kong’s lips twitched after hearing that. After all, he was not a dual cultivator like Ling Yun, and he had never had relationships with other women except his wife.

Ran Chenxin and Ling Yun were sitting opposite each other, and she kept looking him up and down, causing him to smile awkwardly.

Before long, Ran Chenxin nodded repeatedly and said to him. “My father-in-law is indeed right; your physical strength is exceptional compared to your generation, and your face is also very handsome. However, your cultivation is still too low now, but it doesn’t matter because you are a dual cultivator, and it will continue to improve quickly with the help of your wives. Besides, you will also join the sect, so you can look for stronger partners to help you.”

However, Ling Yun shook his head at her. “In fact, my cultivation can be faster than now, but there are some things that hinder me, and I have to stabilize everything first before breaking through to the next stage.”

“I know.” Ran Chenxin nodded in understanding. “Even though you are a dual cultivator, you still can’t break through too quickly, or it will be detrimental to you. Moreover, when you reach the Five God Realms, you will find it increasingly difficult to stabilize everything, so you have to cultivate more carefully.”

“You’re right, Aunt.” Ling Yun answered with a heavy sigh, especially since he continued to have difficulty stabilizing his oddity even though his cultivation was still in the mortal realms, so he was aware that things would become even more difficult once he broke through to that stage.

Ran Chenxing then bluntly asked him. “Are you interested in my daughter, Mo Chen?”

“I’m sorry, but I have no interest in Miss Yueling for now.” Ran Chenxin was not surprised to hear Ling Yun’s answer. “I admit that she is beautiful and strong, but she is too spoiled and rude, and I dislike such a woman.”

“You’re right.” Ran Chenxin did not deny that. “I spoiled Yueling too much, so she has become like that now. After she was exposed to the disease, her character became even worse, especially since she was cooped up alone for so long.”

Ling Yun himself had already heard everything from Zhou Yu, so he was no longer surprised to hear Ran Chenxin’s words. “I believe everyone can change, but it depends on her whether she wants to change for the better or not.”

“Honestly, I felt strange when Yueling told me that Senior Yu asked her to be your partner, especially since you two don’t know each other yet, and you are also a dual cultivator with dozens of partners by your side.” Ling Yun remained relaxed when he heard this, and he felt that it was very natural because Ran Chenxin was a mother who loved her daughter very much. “Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate dual cultivators, but I don’t like them either, and I always hope that my daughter will marry a man who truly loves her.”

“En.” Ling Yun nodded to her. “All parents will always hope for the best for their children.”

“Yes.” Ran Chenxin then continued. “Even though I don’t know you well, I trust Senior Yu’s judgment, so I will allow my daughter to be close to you. As for the future relationship between the two of you, I will leave everything to Yueling, and I will accept it if she really falls in love with you. If you two are truly destined to be together, I hope you will treat and love her well.”

“We’ll see about that in the future, Aunt.” Ling Yun replied with a smile. “Even though I have so many women by my side, I always love and treat them fairly. If we are truly destined to be together, I will treat Miss Yueling the same as I treat them.”

“That’s good.” Ran Chenxin then took out a necklace and placed it on the table. “Other people may not know it, but I knew that Xiao Xiao is not a human but a beast, right?”

“Eh?” Ling Yun was shocked after hearing that.

Ran Chenxin smiled at Ling Yun’s reaction. “Moreover, she is not an ordinary beast, and I guess that she is a mythical beast.”

“How did you find out?” Ling Yun asked with a frown.

Ran Chenxin didn’t answer his question and waved her hand, and a black dome enveloped them directly. Her next action shocked Ling Yun, especially since she turned into a half-beast, and even more so when he saw the eight legs on her back. “As you can see, I myself am a beast, so I can feel something unusual from your wife. However, only my family knows about this, and no one knows because of the effect of the necklace.”

“Hmm?” Ling Yun then took the necklace and looked at it carefully, especially since it could fool his system scan. “Can this necklace hide your beast form from other people?”

“Yes.” Ran Chenxin replied with a nod and returned to her human form. “A friend of mine who is an expert artifact refiner made this necklace. As long as I wear it, then people won’t know my true identity, and my daughter is also wearing one. Even though she is half human, she still has my bloodline, so I asked her to keep wearing it.”

“I see.” Ling Yun then asked her. “Can this necklace really hide Xiao’er’s true identity?”

“One hundred percent.” Ran Chenxin answered confidently. “Even if those people are beasts, they will never be able to find out her true identity as long as she wears that necklace.”
