Chapter 204 How could I possibly have any ulterior motives?
Seeing Zhang Run kneeling on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, Yu Gang waved his hand.
"Alright, alright, no need to be so polite. But whether you can truly transform yourself in the monster group from now on depends on yourself."
"Okay, thank you, teacher. I will definitely work harder!" Zhang Run said quickly.
"If there's nothing else, I'll head over now. Come report to me tomorrow."
"Yes!"
After saying that, Master Yu left, leaving the family of three behind.
"Xiao Run, your father has gone to great lengths to get you this opportunity, so you must work hard, understand?"
"Yes, I know! This opportunity is hard-won, and I will definitely work hard!"
"Yes, all the efforts your mother and I put in have not been in vain," Zhang Wei said with satisfaction, patting Zhang Run on the shoulder.
"There's something I don't understand. Why are Father and Mother, who are so high and mighty, so polite to those people? Especially that Chen Xuan, he's just someone from our family who came down to the mortal realm, merely a retainer. Why are you two so..."
"Run'er, things aren't always as they seem. Your mother and I did all this to pave the way for you. Only when the Zhang family befriends those people will you have a better chance of joining the Monster Group! This is all for our good intentions!"
"But he's just a native from the lower realm..."
"Alright! We're doing all this for you, aren't we? I've heard so many nice things from others, why do I like that kid's words so much? If you weren't neglecting your cultivation, would I want this?" Xiao Hongmei said angrily.
Zhang Run shrank back, not daring to say anything more.
"Run'er, you heard what your mother said. If you don't cultivate properly, we'll still have to treat people well! The cultivation world isn't all about fighting and killing; it's all about human relationships and social interactions!"
"But Madam, you are truly amazing. Your performance just now was so realistic. I had never seen such a thing before. It seems you really put in a lot of effort!" Zhang Wei praised Xiao Hongmei.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongmei blushed.
Actually, she wasn't acting; her interactions with Chen Xuan were all genuine...
For some reason, she had a great fondness for this young man, Chen Xuan. Whenever he complimented her, she felt genuinely happy.
Then, she put on a stern face:
"Alright, Run'er is like this because you spoiled him! I just promised Chen Xuan that I would give him some pointers on Immortal Soul Martial Arts in a few days. If we're going to put on an act, we have to go all the way. During this time, all of you better stay out of my way and stop causing trouble!"
Upon hearing this, both Zhang Wei and Zhang Run took a step back.
It seems that Xiao Hongmei holds the highest position in this family.
"Get out of here, I'm annoyed just looking at you!"
The Zhang father and son: "......"
On Chen Xuan's side.
"Alright, I've visited Jingqi, and I'm reasonably satisfied with her cultivation level. However, before I leave, I have one condition that you must agree to!" Lin Qingxue said to Chen Xuan.
"What are the conditions?" Chen Xuan blinked.
"Don't blink at me, blinking won't work! Yunhan's child and Jingqi's child will both belong to our Hanyue Palace!"
"But doesn't your Cold Moon Palace only accept female disciples? What if they give birth to my son?" Chen Xuan looked at the several women with big bellies.
"Anyway, I don't care. I've observed them all these days. Every single one of your children is a genius among geniuses. Yunhan and Jingqi are from my Hanyue Palace, so their children are naturally geniuses too!" Lin Qingxue said.
"Oh, Senior Sister, please don't say that. My child is of course mine and my husband's. How could you just snatch it into the Cold Moon Palace?" Lin Yunhan was somewhat dissatisfied.
"You're completely hopeless! I don't want to talk to you right now!" Lin Qingxue looked at Lin Yunhan, who was completely focused on Chen Xuan, and felt utterly exhausted.
"Husband, look at my senior sister! She's going to give birth soon!" Lin Yunhan complained.
"Alright, alright, I'm mostly stable now. No one can take you and the baby away from me!" Chen Xuan smiled and patted Lin Yunhan's head before starting an encrypted call.
"Yay! I knew my husband was the best!"
Why are you acting like a little kid?
"Huh? Can't I say that? I saw Jingyi and the others say that." Lin Yunhan's pretty face was full of doubt.
"Well... never mind, do whatever you want!" Chen Xuan didn't explain.
Lin Qingxue, who was standing to the side, was a little confused. Although she didn't understand most of the content, there was one sentence that she did understand.
"Chen Xuan, what do you mean by this? You've abducted two core members of my Cold Moon Palace, and you still want to fly?!"
A blast of cold air suddenly swept over Chen Xuan, but for Chen Xuan in his current state, it only felt refreshing.
"Um... Senior Sister Qingxue, why don't you stay here with Yunhan in my secret realm? It's quite nice here. I'll turn it into a paradise in a little while!"
"Don't go? You, what do you want to do? A grotto-heaven? I've never even heard of such a thing!"
Hearing Chen Xuan's words, Lin Qingxue became slightly nervous and took a step back.
Chen Xuan, that womanizer, is finally trying to take advantage of me. I absolutely cannot let him succeed!
"I don't want to do anything." Chen Xuan smiled and took a step forward.
"I'm telling you, Yunhan and the others are all here, so don't do anything reckless, you know that!" Lin Qingxue's face flushed slightly as she backed away.
After living in the villa for these past few days, she knew all too well what kind of person Chen Xuan was. Sometimes he and his wives and concubines would play in the living room, on the balcony, outside the villa, and so on, and they never tried to hide it from her!
It's not surprising that he's now targeting me!
"Oh dear, Senior Sister still hasn't realized it. Of course, her husband didn't intend for her to leave when he brought her into such a secret realm! Unless... Sigh! Senior Sister is so silly!" Lin Yunhan shook her head and left.
Lin Qingxue: "???!"
"Chen Xuan, you, you dare! I would rather die than..."
After being blessed by spiritual veins several times, Lin Qingxue's cultivation level is now too low to leave the Blue Star Secret Realm; she can only be taken out by Chen Xuan.
"Alright, alright, don't listen to Yunhan's nonsense. How could I possibly have any ulterior motives?"
"Then why did you make me stay?" Lin Qingxue was still very nervous.
“Because… we’re no longer in the Mountain and Sea Realm!” Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"Pah! You'd say something so stupid just to get me? Do you think I'd believe that?!" Lin Qingxue said, her face full of disbelief.
"Alright then, shall I take you out now, Senior Sister?"
"It better be this way!"
"Alright, let's go out together!" After saying that, Chen Xuan didn't wait for Lin Qingxue's reaction, grabbed her hand and led her outside.
