The actions of the Holy Maiden of Xuanqing Sect left everyone bewildered.

She was like a lotus emerging from the water, possessing a delicate fragility that made the world cherish her.

Ignoring the dirt on the ground, he knelt down on one knee.

She gently took Su Yun's hand, striking a pose that suggested a pitiful expression: "Young master, would you be willing to help me?"

Such delicate beauty, like a willow branch or a flower, would surely captivate anyone who saw it.

How can we tolerate such a beautiful woman kneeling before people?

Just one more glance and I felt guilty.

On the surface, Eunuch Cao remained calm, but inwardly he marveled, "This heir of the Duke of Zhenyuan is truly as Minister Li said, possessing great fortune."

Grandma Mei, leaning on her cane, simply watched indifferently, offering no comment.

Xiao Yuanbo opened his mouth wide and gestured frantically, "Holy, Holy Maiden, this Xiao Qingchen is my son, he is my son."

"He's the one with great fortune I was talking about, you've got it wrong!"

The Holy Maiden of Xuanqing Sect glanced back gently, her star-studded eyes filled with sincere apology: "Mr. Xiao, I am so sorry."

"This young master is the one I was talking about who has great fortune."

Xiao Yuanbo was shocked: "You're saying I'm tainted with luck..."

The Holy Maiden of Xuanqing Sect nodded gently, her expression pitiful: "My Xuanqing Sect has a secret method that allows us to see destiny."

"This young master... is the one I've been looking for."

She apologized first even though she hadn't done anything wrong, and her humble attitude left no room for criticism.

Xiao Yuanbo was speechless.

Could it be that Su Yun is his son, and therefore he has been tainted by his luck?

No, Qingchen is the heir of the Su family!

He quickly turned his head: "Qingchen, say something, say something!"

"This is an opportunity your father has sought for you!"

Who knew that a trip to the faraway land would lead to an encounter with the Holy Maiden of the Xuanqing Sect, who even said that he possessed great fortune.

How can we just let our son's good fortune slip away?

Xiao Qingchen clenched his fists, his jealousy erupting like a volcano!

Xuanqing Sect!

Saint!

He didn't know much about it, but based on rumors circulating in the streets, he knew how terrifying this sect was.

Seventy years ago, the Xuanqing Sect united the five major domains to hold the Jiazi Demon Extermination Ceremony.

Sweep across the six directions, and sweep across the eight wastelands!

They shattered all the demons and monsters in the world, forcing them to retreat into the mountains and wilderness.

The saintess rarely went out, but rumors about her kept circulating.

Countless geniuses came to him for personal instruction, but in the end, they all returned empty-handed.

When asked, he shook his head, his face filled with regret.

Outsiders speculate that the Holy Maiden possesses profound cultivation and harbors an innate divine artifact within her body.

An eruption can easily move mountains and fill seas, and reverse the stars.

Those arrogant individuals, feeling ashamed of their own inferiority, wisely left.

For all these years, the saintess has always been a loner.

The "companion" I'm looking for in the Great Qian should be myself!

Xiao Qingchen's body trembled with jealousy, but her expression remained calm.

She smiled slightly and said, "I also think that Su Yun is incredibly lucky."

"It would be most appropriate to have him take the saintess to find her vital point."

He couldn't even say anything that was detrimental to Su Yun!

The Holy Maiden of Xuanqing Sect was several generations older than Su Yun, yet she knelt before a three-year-old child, as if she were the weaker one.

Her eyes were lowered, as if she was about to cry at any moment: "The sect has ordered that we must find the life-giving acupoint under the guidance of the one with the destiny of the Great Qian Dynasty."

"Young master, would you mind becoming my companion?"

"No matter what it takes to achieve this, I will repay you wholeheartedly."

The gazes of onlookers were either envious or jealous; even the servants and guards of the Su family looked on with satisfaction and pride.

Only Su Yun got goosebumps!

Ding!

Are you alright? You finally managed to clear your name, and now you're going to associate with a scheming woman?

[I hope you're not love-struck or a simp.]

Have you forgotten how much of a rip-off Xiangshuying was?

Without her, the Demon Lord would be the most terrifying nightmare in all realms.

[Since Xiang Shuying has latched onto you, the Demon Lord has become the comedian of all realms!]

Please, you absolutely must, sever all ties!

[Task Difficulty: Extremely High]

[Quest Reward: Thousand-Layered Cream]

"Hiss, the plot hasn't even started yet, how come this bitch has already appeared?"

Before me stood a stunningly beautiful woman, as delicate and graceful as a lotus flower.

Su Yun felt a tightness in her chest.

In the story, Xiang Shuying is the epitome of a scheming woman, unlike Lin Ying'er who is two-faced.

She never spoke harshly, and always appeared gentle and frail in public.

It is as fragile as straw, which evokes people's desire to protect it.

Even the Demon Lord was deceived, believing her to be a ally who could distinguish right from wrong, and gave her many benefits.

When the Chosen One gained the upper hand and the Demon Lord fell to the bottom, he passed by the Fragrant Comb Shadow Cave and hoped to seek help.

She simply instructed her disciples to convey the message "Do not disturb in seclusion," then sealed off the barrier, cutting off any escape route.

Forced into a corner, the Demon Lord had no choice but to burn his divine soul to launch a desperate counterattack.

When Su Yun saw this back then, he thought it would lead to a complete break.

Unexpectedly, after defeating the Chosen One, the Demon Lord was severely injured and fell into a coma.

Upon seeing the reversed Xiang Shuying, he decisively intervened to save her and heal her injuries.

Afterwards, to avoid his inner demons, the Demon Lord could only repay the favor and gave him many benefits...

Su Yun also cursed back then, calling it a melodramatic plot.

The ruthless and decisive demon lord, who could stop children from crying at night, suddenly became a sycophantic comedian.

When it happened in front of her, Su Yun immediately trembled: "No! I don't want to be a simp!"

Snapped!

He slapped his hand away, turned around and hugged Grandma Mei's leg: "Grandma, I don't want to be a Taoist companion!"

hiss!

In short, he confused everyone around him.

Xiang Shuying looked hurt, her eyes lowered: "Young master, do you not like me?"

Su Yun nodded decisively: "Yes!"

hiss!

The people around them didn't know how to do it either.

Xiang Shuying's eyes, as bright as stars, were already glistening with tears: "It must be because of my ugly appearance that I frightened the young master..."

Su Yun nodded: "That's right!"

hiss!

Those outside the Su family immediately showed displeasure.

How can you say that such a stunningly beautiful girl, whose beauty could shame the moon and flowers, is ugly?

People couldn't help but be moved by the sight of the fragrant comb and blame him!

This green tea bitch is incredibly skilled; with just a few words, she portrayed herself as delicate and pitiful, arousing everyone's protective instincts.

Xiao Yuanbo swallowed hard, unable to resist comforting her, "Holy Maiden, please don't take offense, this brat said..."

Suddenly, he saw half a head peeking out from the wall.

Like a peony emerging from the dawn, its beauty is unparalleled!

Her skin was like fresh snow, exuding the delicate tenderness unique to young girls.

Yet, because she has children, her every move exudes a gentle and graceful maternal glow.

Xiao Yuanbo caught a glimpse of her and recognized the woman as if she had stepped out of a beautiful painting.

It was none other than Lady Xi Yaoyue, the wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan!

He blurted out his true thoughts without thinking: "Holy Maiden, please don't take offense, this brat isn't wrong either..."

hiss!

Xiao Yuanbo suddenly covered his mouth, but Xiang Shuying was already glaring at him resentfully.

Damn it!

Xiao Yuanbo cursed inwardly.

That Xi Yaoyue is known as the number one beauty in the Tianyuan Realm, the kind who surpasses all the other beauty rankings.

Why did you have to say what was on your mind?!

Xiang Shuying's eyes were filled with resentment: "I..."

“I would wash and dress up, burning incense and putting on makeup before dawn, and it would take me an hour just to find clothes every day.”

"Where am I inferior to..."

Su Yun glanced back and said, "Goodness, the green tea has broken down."

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

When a manipulative woman meets a woman of average appearance, she will feign humility, offering praise while subtly criticizing her.

But when I meet someone who's actually prettier than me, I immediately lose my guard.

Boom!

Old Madam Mei tapped her dragon-headed cane: "Holy Maiden, please be careful with your words. This is the mistress of my Su family."

Xi Yaoyue sensed the fluctuations of spiritual energy at the door and came out to check.

Upon hearing her mother-in-law's words, her eyes widened immediately: "Mother..."

Grandma Mei waved her hand: "We'll talk about it later."

Xi Yaoyue held her breath, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.

As a top-grade green tea, Xiang Shuying quickly regained her composure.

She gave a gentle curtsy and said, "Greetings, Madam."

The word "Madam" was emphasized.

It seems that emphasizing age can better highlight one's selling points.

But Xi Yaoyue didn't even bother with it.

Having been the mistress of the Su family for so many years, she no longer cared about such tricks.

Whoever has the ability can claim the title of the second most beautiful woman in the Tianyuan Realm.

After watching for a while, will I be criticized by various cultivators to the point of breaking my defenses?

Xiao Yuanbo wanted to say something to make amends, but a single glance from Old Madam Mei silenced him immediately.

"Su Yun," Old Madam Mei said coldly, "You don't like her?"

Su Yun nodded repeatedly: "Yes!"

Grandma Mei said sternly, "In life, there's no such thing as liking or disliking things!"

"There are many things we don't have a choice about!"

Grandpa Cao was a little worried, but after hearing what Grandma Mei said, he was immediately relieved.

Once this partnership is formed, his mission will be complete.

As for what happens next... then another eunuch will take over.

Xiao Yuanbo hesitated, then said, "No... Grandma, Su Yun doesn't like it, so why force her?"

This is a great opportunity for Qingchen! Isn't it just as good that the brat doesn't like it?

Su Yun scratched his head: "Oh..."

I'm still a nobody, so this task will probably be stuck for a while...

Boom!

Grandma Mei slammed her cane down hard: "I'll let it go this time because you're still young!"

"From now on, I must learn to coexist with things I don't like!"

"Qingchen, you will become the Holy Maiden's companion!"

Ding!

[Great, your tactic of shifting blame has linked the chosen one with a scheming woman.]

Instead of trying to clear your own name, try to smear others.

[Perfect timing, they're birds of a feather, they'll probably bring a lot of fun to all the worlds.]

[Go for it, Demon Lord! Become a Holy Lord soon!]
