Am I not a nascent saint demon cultivator?

Time flies by, and several months have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, news of demonic cultivators appearing in Mofeng City caused widespread panic, with people fearing that they might be targeted by demonic cultivators, leading to a surge in demand and prices for various strategic resources.

Under these circumstances, Wen Xinlan spent a lot of effort to quickly renovate Tianhe Tower and reopen it for business.

After recuperating for a while, Xu Yun took on many talisman-drawing tasks and earned a lot of spirit stones.

However, even after a long time, no demonic cultivators appeared in Mofeng City. Instead, news came from a sect thousands of miles away that it had been robbed by demonic cultivators.

It is said that the sect in question was a subordinate force of the Yuantian Sect, and now that it has been plundered and attacked by demonic cultivators, it has lost a lot of face.

However, none of this mattered to Xu Yun. He continued to collect all the necessary resources and cultivate every day. In particular, he felt wonderful as he experienced the gradual improvement of his spiritual consciousness.

On this day, Xu Yun meditated and cultivated in his cave as usual.

Suddenly, he felt a series of fluctuations coming from the array outside, causing him to slowly open his eyes. He raised his eyebrows slightly, then took out his token and opened a crack in the array.

Swish!

Soon, a sound transmission talisman landed in Xu Yun's palm. As he poured magic power into it, a familiar yet urgent voice rang out.

"Brother Xu, the situation is urgent! Come to my residence immediately!!"

After listening, Xu Yun frowned slightly, a look of doubt appearing in his eyes.

The sender of this communication talisman was none other than his sworn brother, Lin Zuibai. Through their correspondence over this period, Xu Yun learned that his sworn friends had also finished their missions and had some free time.

Xu Yun had originally thought that the other party would invite everyone to Shuiyun Mansion for a get-together, but he did not expect that the message talisman sent by Lin Zuibai would be so urgent, obviously something very bad had happened.

"Let's go and take a look first."

As Xu Yun said this, he immediately got up and left his cave. After all, they were sworn friends, and he would be happy to help if he could.

If it would affect him, Xu Yun might have to consider how to quietly extricate himself from the situation without taking any risks.

A moment later, Xu Yun arrived in front of Shuiyun Mansion and threw a sound transmission talisman inside.

Buzz!

Soon, the array surrounding Shuiyun Mansion opened an entrance, allowing Xu Yun to enter.

He dared not delay and immediately ran towards the main hall. Suddenly, an extremely angry shout came from inside, which made him pause for a moment.

"You little philanderer!!"

As soon as Xu Yun entered the hall, he saw several figures sitting on prayer mats. Besides Lin Zuibai and the others, there was also a stranger.

Then a woman with fair skin and a graceful figure stood in the center of the hall. She had willow-leaf eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and her head was slightly raised, like a proud phoenix.

Behind her stood a familiar figure, none other than Shi Han. However, at this moment, his eyes were unfocused and his posture was slightly hunched, as if he were somewhat guilty.

The one who had just lashed out was none other than Shi Han's childhood sweetheart, Xiao Menglin. At this moment, her pretty face was flushed red, and she pointed her jade finger at the arrogant woman, continuously hurling insults at her.

At the same time, Wen Lingyu, who was next to her, quickly reached out her delicate hand and gently patted her back, trying to calm her down and comfort her.

"Brother Xu, you've arrived. Please have a seat."

Lin Zuibai, who was sitting in the main seat, also looked very unwell. He clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and waved his hand when he saw Xu Yun arrive, gesturing for him to sit down first.

"It seems that the relevant fellow Daoists have all arrived, so I will speak frankly from here."

The haughty woman glanced at the crowd, pointed to the somewhat timid Shi Han behind her, and smiled, "This man is engaged to me, Zhao Yunxuan. From now on, Shi Han will be the son-in-law of my Ziyu Zhao family."

Upon hearing this, everyone else present was stunned, especially Xiao Menglin, who looked as if she had been struck by lightning, staring at Zhao Yunxuan and Shi Han in disbelief, feeling as if everything before her was so illusory and unreal.

"No, that's impossible..."

Xiao Menglin's delicate body trembled as she stared intently at the haughty Zhao Yunxuan, her voice hoarse, "You must have threatened Brother Shi! What did you do to him?!"

Xiao Menglin and Shi Han were childhood sweethearts and embarked on the path of cultivation together. They have supported each other for a long time, and the affection between them is something that outsiders can hardly understand.

In Xiao Menglin's view, Brother Shi must have been threatened by this woman, otherwise why would he do such an abnormal thing?

"Hehe, then you explain it yourself."

Seeing Xiao Menglin's almost murderous gaze, Zhao Yunxuan smiled dismissively and pushed Shi Han forward.

Shi Han staggered slightly, looking directly into the eyes of everyone present, especially Xiao Menglin's extremely worried gaze. He swallowed hard, lowered his head, and said in a deep voice, "I was the one who approached Fairy Yunxuan first. After several interactions during the mission, we developed feelings for each other, and then I proposed to become the son-in-law of the Ziyu Zhao family."

"Why, why......."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Menglin's face turned deathly pale, and she swayed violently, about to fall to the ground, but fortunately Wen Lingyu caught her in time.

Even so, Xiao Menglin's condition was still not good. She suffered a huge mental blow, her face was ashen, her eyes were dull, and she looked like a walking corpse.

Upon seeing this scene, Shi Han turned his head away and looked away. It would be a lie to say that he didn't care about Xiao Menglin. After all, they had supported each other for many years and their feelings for each other were genuine.

However, after Shi Han arrived in Mofeng City and saw a much wider world, he realized his own insignificance and powerlessness.

Especially when he saw that his other sworn friends had made progress while he was still stuck in the same place, he felt a strong sense of resentment and anxiety.

That's why, after he met Zhao Yunxuan and developed feelings for her, he realized that his opportunity had come.

As a member of the Ziyu Zhao family, even though he was from a collateral branch, the other party still held some real power. Furthermore, the other party had formed a spiritual contract with him and was willing to support his cultivation.

The other party even gave him a small benefit in advance, directly helping him break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining. It was because of this that Shi Han was willing to become the son-in-law of the Ziyu Zhao family.

Otherwise, Shi Han would not be able to make any further progress on his path. As for Xiao Menglin... well, we can only say that we are not on the same page.

"As you all heard, everything was done out of mutual agreement, without any threat or coercion. My Ziyu Zhao family also cares about its reputation."

Zhao Yunxuan smiled slightly and stepped out again, scanning the crowd before unleashing several streams of light that landed in each person's hand.

Then, the shimmering light faded, revealing gold-embossed invitations underneath.

At the same time, Zhao Yunxuan solemnly curtsied to everyone and said, "This is my wedding invitation to Shi Han. You are all Shi Han's sworn friends. Please come and witness the ceremony."
