Chapter 1742
Lin Yuyao hugged Chen Xuan tightly, her nose almost touching his chin. Looking closely at his handsome features, her voice carried a hint of dependence: "If you and my elder brother return to Qilin City, unless absolutely necessary, don't send me back."
Chen Xuan chuckled softly upon hearing this, his fingertips lightly tracing her flawless cheek—her skin was as white as warm jade, gleaming delicately in the candlelight. "What, have you already forgotten all about home after only a few days?"
"Hmph." Lin Yuyao turned her face away stubbornly, but her ears were secretly turning red. "I just suddenly felt that staying here is great. I can spar with my sisters, cultivate together, and become stronger together."
Although Chen Xuan often joked and teased her in the past, there was always a faint sense of distance between them.
Now that they are Daoist partners, the warmth of his palm and the concern in his words are so genuine that they warm one's heart.
Lin Yuyao snuggled closer to him, feeling the comforting warmth, and the ice in her heart seemed to slowly melt away.
Chen Xuan lowered his head, his warm breath brushing against her reddened earlobe, teasing her deliberately: "Come on, call me 'husband' and let me hear it?"
Lin Yuyao immediately buried her face in his clothes and said in a muffled voice, "I won't call you that, you big bad guy."
Chen Xuan chuckled softly and gently tickled her waist. Lin Yuyao was extremely ticklish, and immediately couldn't hold back her laughter. Her body went limp, and she pleaded for mercy, "Husband...husband! Stop it, I'll call you that..."
She tilted her head back, her eyelashes still glistening with moisture, and her voice, barely audible, was filled with shyness: "Husband... Husband."
Chen Xuan kissed her lips with satisfaction, then took out two jade bottles—
The bottle contained a shimmering, iridescent liquid, resembling shattered stars, and was gently handed to her: "This is the Primordial Creation Elixir, which will greatly benefit your fundamental injuries."
He paused, then added, "Don't be stingy with these two bottles; they're enough for you to cultivate another transcendent level of immortal energy."
Lin Yuyao gazed at the three bottles of divine substances on the table: the Chaos Crystal gleamed with a deep, mysterious light and could be used to cultivate Chaos Immortal Qi.
The True Dragon Elixir flowed with golden patterns and could refine dragon immortal energy. In fact, this True Dragon Elixir complemented her Holy Qilin bloodline perfectly.
In addition, there is this innate creation elixir... a total of three divine substances that transcend the world.
In an instant, Lin Yuyao's heart felt as if it were filled with something, warm and trembling, and her eyes involuntarily reddened.
This feeling was completely different from that of the elders in Qilin City—their eyes always carried expectations and calculations, while Chen Xuan's gaze towards her was filled with pure tenderness, without a trace of impurity.
"Mmm." A thousand words welled up at her lips, but in the end, they all boiled down to a single syllable. Lin Yuyao blinked rapidly, forcing back the tears welling in her eyes, and nodded vigorously.
Seeing her like this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but rub her head and said with a smile, "Your foundation is already solid. If all goes well, you will cultivate all three divine substances into immortal energy, and then you will have five strands of immortal energy in your body."
He embraced her slender waist, his tone deepening, "The battle at Qilin City meant little to me. But you have been placed on high hopes by your sect and elders since childhood, almost to the point of obsession. This is the perfect opportunity for you to break free from the shackles of fate with your own strength."
Upon learning of Chen Xuan's plan, Lin Yuyao's eyes lit up instantly. Looking at the treasure on the table, she nodded emphatically, a hint of determination in her eyes.
Seeing that there was still a hint of nervousness between her brows, Chen Xuan smiled and said, "If you're really not confident, just call a few of your sisters to come along."
"Mmm!" Lin Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief. Sister Yu'er and Sister Piaoxue were already stronger than her. The two of them alone could easily resolve the crisis in Qilin City, let alone the five sisters going together.
A surge of warmth welled up in her heart. At this moment, Lin Yuyao didn't want to think about anything else but to hold the person in front of her who was going to spend half her life with her tightly and whispered, "Thank you, my husband."
