"Hey, Brother Tu, standing here in the blazing sun at the theater entrance, trying to sell your tail?" Long Jiajia saw Tu Xiaoxiao standing at the theater entrance from afar, peeking inside from time to time, and immediately sensed that there was something interesting to hear, so she came up to mock him.

Lu Guoguo stood obediently beside Long Jiajia and greeted her sweetly, "Good morning, Brother Xiaoxiao."

Tu Xiaoxiao, who had been staring blankly at Long Jiajia, smiled warmly after hearing Lu Guoguo's greeting: "Hello, little sister Guoguo."

He glanced at Long Jiajia and said sarcastically, "Guoguo is still the most polite, unlike some female cultivators who take in a bunch of husbands and leave them at home instead of spending time with them, always running around outside."

Long Jiajia scoffed, "If you're so capable, why don't you marry a bunch of wives and keep them at home? It's a pity that some male cultivators are eager to sell their tails, but the girls don't want them."

While the two sides were openly arguing and subtly mocking each other, Shen Yao pulled Feng Yu from the front hall, with Huo Die following behind. His overly cool and handsome features, upright and awe-inspiring temperament, and imposing demeanor attracted the attention of the cultivators they passed.

"They're here!" Lu Guoguo waved and shouted, "Yaoyao, I'm here."

Tu Xiaoxiao's fox ears perked up: "Guoguo, you two know each other?"

Lu Guoguo nodded: "I know her. I came to pick her up today."

This surprised Tu Xiaoxiao. He asked casually, "Where are you taking her? She's coming back to the Tu family home with me today."

Lu Guoguo never lies: "I'm going to pay respects to my aunt."

This surprised Tu Xiaoxiao even more. Shen Yao was related to Lu Guoguo's aunt.

"Don't talk to him so much." Long Jiajia interrupted, "Brother Tu is quite cunning. He couldn't sell any tails yesterday, but today he's going to bring her home."

Before she finished speaking, Shen Yao had already reached the door, her eyes crinkling with a smile: "Guoguo!"

She familiarly took Lu Guoguo's hand: "I was thinking of sending you a message after I came out, but I didn't expect you to be here already."

Lu Guoguo smiled sweetly: "That's what you call telepathy."

Long Jiajia's gaze only flashed across Shen Yao's face for a moment before being drawn to the boy behind her to the right.

The young man had his black hair tied up high, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He had an extraordinary temperament. Just by standing there, he had the bearing of a deity, exuding a righteous aura, as if a god had descended to earth.

Long Jiajia had seen countless handsome men, but she had never seen a man with such an ethereal and otherworldly air.

"Miss Shen," Long Jiajia greeted, her eyes never leaving Huo Die's face.

Shen Yao also noticed her. The bright and beautiful woman in front of her was the female cultivator who stood with the male cultivator from Linglong Pavilion during the bidding last night.

This seemingly mature, passionate, and straightforward female cultivator was staring intently at her father, her expression full of admiration.

'Oh? Dad's love interest is here?' Shen Yao thought to herself, she was about to get some gossip about her father. She replied politely, 'Hello.'

Long Jiajia walked past Shen Yao and stood in front of Huo Die, her gaze direct and undisguised.

Huo Die knew he was incredibly handsome and had long been used to being stared at. He wasn't uncomfortable at all when he saw that gaze. His expression remained unchanged, and he met her eyes with composure.

Long Jiajia's admiration deepened. In the morning, she had heard Guoguo say that there were two male cultivators in Shen Yao's room. One of them had a scar on his face and was her husband. She didn't know who the other one was.

So young, and doesn't look like Shen Yao at all, he couldn't possibly be her brother. Long Jiajia stared at Huo Die and asked Shen Yao, "Miss Shen, is this also your husband?"

Shen Yao thought to herself: 'Huh? What? What do you mean "also"? This is my father! Even if he's my husband, is it appropriate for you to stare at him like that in front of me? Is it reasonable?'

She replied, "You're wrong, he's my father."

Hearing Shen Yao's answer, Long Jiajia was very surprised. She looked at Shen Yao and said, "He looks younger than you, but he's your father?"

Shen Yao nodded: "It really is my father."

Long Jiajia: "And what about your mother?"

Shen Yao glanced at Huo Die's face and sighed, "Alas, my mother died not long after giving birth to me, leaving my father and me to depend on each other for decades."

Huo Die's eyes twitched. Under his good daughter's arrangement, he had already solidified his status as a widower.

Like an elder, Long Jiajia reached out and stroked Shen Yao's head, comforting her, "Poor girl, don't be sad. Tell Auntie, how old are you this year?"

Auntie? Tu Xiaoxiao tilted her head and flapped her fox ears. "You're from a different generation, aren't you, Long Jiajia?"

Shen Yao: "Thirty-seven."

“She’s still so young.” Long Jiajia’s eyes showed pity. After patting her head, she gently patted Shen Yao’s shoulder: “Little girl, your aunt will protect you from now on. To tell you the truth, I’ve taken a liking to your father. Do you want a stepmother?”

Shen Yao almost burst out laughing. Sure enough, she was her father's womanizer. She feigned shock and helplessness, unsure how to answer, stammering, "I...I..."

Long Jiajia said something that was quite surprising: "Don't be afraid. Although your aunt has ten husbands, she will treat your father well."

My shocking revelation! Shen Yao was genuinely startled this time. She took a step back, leaning against Feng Yu, trying to find a sense of security, and stared at Long Jiajia in astonishment: "Ten...ten husbands..."

This time it was Long Jiajia's turn to be confused. It's normal for demons to have one wife and multiple husbands, or one husband and multiple wives. Why was Shen Yao reacting like this?

Huo Die stepped forward and said coldly, "I cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness, do not presume to destroy my Dao Heart."

Long Jiajia smiled brightly: "You have a wife and daughter, how can you cultivate the path of ruthlessness?"

Huo Die's face darkened. He glared at his daughter and said irritably, "It was repaired after her mother died!"

Long Jiajia was skeptical, but she didn't press the matter further. For advanced cultivators like them, their lifelong pursuit was to improve their cultivation, expand their spiritual roots, awaken new spiritual roots, and take another step forward.

Since Shen Yao's father cultivates the Path of Ruthlessness, he has no affinity with her. To corrupt a cultivator's heart is shameful for the righteous path. No matter how much she loves beauty, she would disdain to do so.

“Little girl, we’re not mother and daughter, so let’s call each other sisters.” Long Jiajia turned around, walked to Lu Guoguo’s side, and said, “Let’s go, let’s go pay our respects to Guoguo’s aunt first.”

Shen Yao: "Wait a minute, I need to go buy items for the worship."

"No need, I'm all ready." Lu Guoguo took out her flying spirit treasure, which was a large ice-blue frost flower. A beautiful female demon wearing a blue and white frost flower dress sat on the frost flower spirit treasure, blending into the scenery, which was very beautiful.

Long Jiajia's flying magical artifact was a golden bead. She stood steadily on the bead and said, "It's still quite a distance from here to Peacock Mountain outside the South City. You guys keep up."

Feng Yu summoned her flying sword, pulled Shen Yao up, and followed behind Lu Guoguo.

Huo Die sat on the golden wheel-shaped flying magical artifact that his son-in-law had made for him, flying beside Feng Yu.

Tu Xiaoxiao followed, flew to Lu Guoguo's Frost Flower Spirit Treasure, sat upside down, and called out to Shen Yao: "Miss Shen, you are all immortal cultivators."

Upon hearing this, Long Jiajia turned around and glanced back. Shen Yao, her father, and her husband were indeed all immortal cultivators. It was said that immortals were mostly monogamous, which explained why Shen Yao was so astonished when she heard that she had ten husbands.
