He's a minor cannon fodder character who transmigrates into a novel and cultivates immortality,

After Ling Yun left, Xiao Yun and Xiao Feng shielded Xiao Xuan behind them, glaring at Yan Jiayu with gritted teeth.

Yan Jiayu said with a mocking expression, "Xiao Xuan is the Empress I have ordained. It would be best if you two brothers-in-law did not interfere."

"The reason I am being lenient with you is out of respect for the Empress. You two should not overstep your bounds."

Xiao Xuan: "..."

Xiao Xuan stepped out from behind Xiao Yun and Xiao Feng and respectfully said, "Senior Emperor Yan."

Yan Jiayu: "Call me Ayu."

Xiao Xuan blushed slightly. In his mind, this was only the second time he had met the Yan Emperor.

He couldn't bring himself to call someone he'd only met twice "Ayu."

Seeing this, Yan Jiayu didn't make things difficult. He smiled wickedly and said lazily, "Perhaps you'd rather call me husband?"

Xiao Feng: "Emperor Yan, please have some self-respect."

Yan Jiayu snorted coldly, "What a joke! When I, the Emperor, flirt with my own Empress, what right do others have to interfere?"

Xiao Feng: "..."

Xiao Yun was so angry that he wanted to draw his sword again.

Seeing this, Xiao Xuan sighed silently in his heart and called out to Yan Jiayu, "Ayu."

As soon as he finished speaking, 006's joyful cheer rang in his ears, "Ding, Yan Jiayu's current pleasure level is detected to be 21, reward points 100 points."

"The points reward has been sent to your system space. Please check your account."

System 006: "Host, host, hurry, shout it a few more times."

Xiao Xuan: "..."

Xiao Xuan coughed lightly, and amidst the surprised gazes of Xiao Yun, the heartache of Xiao Feng, and the expectant gazes of Yan Jiayu, he forced himself to call out again, "Ayu."

Sure enough, 006 cheered excitedly again, "Ding, Yan Jiayu's current pleasure level is 22, reward 100 points."

"The points reward has been sent to your system space. Please check your account."

System 006: "Host, host, hurry, shout it a few more times."

Xiao Xuan ignored 006's unreliable advice.

He kept calling her "Ayu" so intimately, what were his two older brothers thinking? Did he even want to face anyone anymore?

Yan Jiayu: "Your Majesty, would you like to return to the Imperial Court with me to cultivate?"

Xiao Xuan: "No need."

A cold, mechanical voice sounded, "Ding, detected that the host has triggered the main quest four: 'Protecting the Chosen One' Yan Jiayu side quest 1. Gift a Grade 9 protective magic artifact, the Heart-Protecting Stone, to Yan Jiayu. Quest reward. You will receive points upon completion of the quest."

Suppressing his unease, Xiao Xuan took out a ninth-grade protective magic artifact, the Heart-Protecting Stone, from his system space and handed it to Yan Jiayu, stammering, "This is for you."

"Blood pledge of allegiance".

Yan Jiayu sensed Xiao Xuan's tension and anticipation.

He weighed the heart-protecting stone in his hand and raised his eyebrows.

Under Xiao Xuan's ardent gaze, the blood oath was completed.

After the blood oath was completed, the introduction and function of the ninth-grade protective magic artifact, the Heart-Protecting Stone, appeared in Yan Jiayu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Even Yan Jiayu was shocked by its rarity.

System 006's excited voice rang out, "Ding, Main Quest 4: 'Protecting the Chosen One' Yan Jiayu Side Quest 1, gift a Grade 9 protective magic artifact, Heart-Protecting Stone, to Yan Jiayu, quest complete."

"Ding, task completed, points earned."

"Ding, reward points have been sent to the system space. Please check your account."
