The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

Although Chen Xuan thought this way, he pretended to be extremely grateful on the surface.

"Thank you, Madam. I am so happy. I feel so blessed to have someone like you as my wife!"

Hearing Chen Xuan say this, Long Yuyan was even happier. She reached out and gently stroked Chen Xuan's cheek, a tender smile on her face.

"Xuan'er, if anything happens in the future, you must tell your teacher's wife, understand? Your teacher's wife will avenge you if you are wronged!"

"Yes, Master's wife, I will!" Chen Xuan nodded obediently.

'This woman is really too friendly. We've only known each other for less than a day, and she's already saying she'll get justice for me. I hope she doesn't end up making a bunch of enemies; that would be a real headache!'

'Sigh, luckily Yu Gang's cultivation level is low, so he won't notice anything. Otherwise, if he saw this woman like this, it would really cause him a lot of trouble!'

Just then, Long Yuyan suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile, "Xuan'er, your teacher's wife has thought about it and there is something she still needs to tell you."

"Huh? What's wrong?" Chen Xuan asked curiously.

"It's about your marriage..." Long Yuyan sighed softly as she spoke.

Chen Xuan frowned immediately upon hearing this word.

This woman wouldn't even meddle in this, would she?

"What's wrong with me getting married?"

“It’s nothing. What Master’s wife wanted to say was that since you got married in the lower realm of the Zhang family and have now ascended to the upper realm alone, the Zhang family will definitely investigate your information in the future…” Long Yuyan hesitated.

"Master's wife, you are right. I didn't think of that. I will definitely cultivate diligently and strive to exchange them back from the Zhang family when the time comes!"

"No, what I meant was... wait, them?!" Long Yuyan's face turned serious, and even a hint of gray flashed in her eyes.

"Yes, it's easy to find out. When I was young... I was indeed a bit like that!" Chen Xuan said, forcing himself to speak.

This is no longer acceptable. The more we talk about his innocent, boyish image, the more it crumbles. If we continue, things might get out of hand!

"So that's how it is..." Long Yuyan played with her hair, lost in thought.

"Teacher's wife, I really didn't expect that our little Xuanzi would be such a philanderer! But you've already married several wives, so why are you still so...shy?"

Chen Xuan pondered.

Chen Xuan was drenched in sweat.

Chen Xuan had a flash of inspiration!

"Sigh, I don't know what's going on! In the beginning, I clearly didn't want it to be like this, but the more shy I am, the more they want to bully me, the more they want to pounce on me! It's like... it's like I'm cursed!"

Long Yuyan blushed.

I never expected that people from the lower realm would have such tastes, liking innocent, naive young men?

"Then why didn't you fight back against them back then?"

"Alas, Master's wife, you are unaware of this! I am not from a prominent family in the lower realm, but a low-level rogue cultivator. My strength is no match for theirs, and I have no way to resist!"

"You've suffered so much..." Long Yuyan didn't know what to say.

"It's nothing, all of this... is just for survival!"

Upon hearing this, Long Yuyan was shocked. Coming from a prominent family, she had never considered such a question before!

This would be the decisive blow for her.

The next moment, Chen Xuan was once again held in Long Yuyan's arms, feeling somewhat suffocated.

"From now on, Xuan'er, you don't need to worry about so many things anymore. Everything... will be taken care of by your teacher's wife!"

'You'll handle this for me? How will you handle it? What's the procedure? Explain it in detail, I'm in a real hurry!'

Chen Xuan's thoughts had already wandered off.

"Since they're the ones who bullied you, Xuan'er, you shouldn't think about the mortal realm anymore. Hesitation will only lead to more trouble! From now on, just focus on cultivating with your teachers!"

"This……"

"What, you're not even listening to your teacher's wife anymore?"

"I'm willing! My master's wife loves and cares for me so much, of course I'm willing! In the future... when I become strong, I will repay my master's wife properly!"

"I said I was willing, but I didn't say I was willing to give them up. I just said I was willing to answer your question!" Chen Xuan cleverly avoided the question.

Upon hearing this, Long Yuyan liked Chen Xuan even more.

"Xuan'er, you are indeed a good child. It is truly our blessing to have a disciple like you! However, your master's wife does not need your repayment. As long as you cultivate diligently in the future, that will be the best way to repay your master's wife!"

"Yes, you're so kind, Madam!"

Upon hearing this, Long Yuyan was about to say something when she heard Yu Gang's joyful exclamation coming from his room. She was immediately startled and then separated from Chen Xuan at lightning speed.

Reason returned to her mind, and without saying much, she went straight to Yu Gang's door to see what had happened.

Chen Xuan was also taken aback. Could it be that Yu Gang had discovered something? He needed to make some careful plans!

Long Yuyan pushed open the door and saw Yu Gang standing excitedly in front of the mirror.

"What happened?" Long Yuyan asked.

"Haha! Yu Yan, I have some good news for you! I just had a sudden flash of inspiration and have gained a deeper understanding of the cultivation technique. Maybe this time I can make some improvements!" Yu Gang laughed loudly.

"Really? That's wonderful! Congratulations, my husband!" Long Yuyan said happily upon hearing this.

Chen Xuan had no choice but to follow along. Although this scene was superfluous to Yu Gang, it was just right for him.

Given his current status, it's still worth celebrating.

"Speaking of which, I owe it all to Chen Xuan's help. He gave me that peach blossom, which suddenly gave me inspiration and helped me understand the key to the technique!" Yu Gang said with a smile.

"Is that so? Then it seems I should ask him for a peach blossom too! By the way, what did you improve your cultivation technique to?"

"Ahem, I only have a preliminary idea. The specific changes will depend on the follow-up! But this time, Chen Xuan's contribution is indeed significant!"

"Oh, I see. Then we really need to thank Xuan'er! I just wonder what reward he wants!" Long Yuyan said with a smile.

Chen Xuan quickly said, "Teacher's wife, you don't need to be so polite. It's what I should do! Not only that, I also want to repay you properly in the future!"

"Xuan'er?" Yu Gang felt a little displeased after hearing this address, but he couldn't make a scene over it, so he could only give Chen Xuan a deep look.

Chen Xuan and Long Yuyan also keenly noticed this, but since there was nothing between them, they didn't need to worry too much.

There's not even a need for explanation.

P.S.: Is "teacher's wife" or "teacher's wife" better? I feel a little strange writing this.
