Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 556 Two Betrothal Gifts
Bai Yaosha lay on her side on the bed, staring at the window frame beside her, but she couldn't calm down. She could clearly feel the presence coming from not far behind her.

She kept telling herself that Qin Yu was her sister's Daoist partner!
The reason we're doing this now is simply to avoid revealing our secrets to our father and the elders within the clan's territory.

Yes, that's the only reason!

Bai Yaosha was filled with mixed emotions, and thinking of this, her guilt towards her younger sister was somewhat relieved.

Just then, her delicate body trembled, and she suddenly stiffened.

A familiar hand suddenly landed on her waist, its warmth seeping into her body through her thin dress.

"Shh!"

Bai Yaosha's pretty face was instantly covered with a blush, so pink and tender that it looked as if water could drip out if you just pinched it gently.

Even the area behind her ears was bright red.

Although the two were almost inseparable while studying the array patterns, and even had a close relationship, she was able to completely immerse herself in it due to her obsession with arrays.

Moreover, every time Qin Yu tried to comprehend the array patterns, she would voluntarily withdraw, so as not to make Qin Yu feel embarrassed.

As for the support on the airship, there was no way to lie down on a bed!

Are you...asleep?

After a long while, Bai Yaosha asked softly, her voice trembling slightly.

However, after a long while, there was no response; only Qin Yu's steady breathing could be heard behind him.

"call……"

Bai Yaosha let out a long sigh of relief; it seemed he was truly exhausted.

After calming down a bit, she suddenly felt that as long as it wasn't too excessive, this kind of contact seemed acceptable.

Exactly, why are his palms so hot?

Is he burning up too?
"Come a little closer."

Just as Bai Yaosha was lost in thought, a somewhat deep voice suddenly rang in her ear.

he……

He wasn't asleep?
Bai Yaosha was taken aback, her body tensed up again, and she even moved a little closer.
why?
“Yaoyin usually lets me hold her while we sleep, but I can’t fall asleep like this.”

"But……"

"Yaoyin won't mind."

Bai Yaosha fell silent.

My sister has brought up some things that she finds unbelievable.

She knew, of course, that her sister wouldn't mind.

However, her inner restraint prevented her from moving at all.

Finally, Qin Yu took the initiative to move closer, and the two of them maintained the posture they had when they were studying the array patterns.

For the first time, Bai Yaosha felt the heartbeat from behind her so clearly. It was strong and powerful, and the rhythm made her heart race, leaving her unable to calm down for a long time.

She... had insomnia.

Before Qin Yu even got up, Bai Yaosha hurriedly went to take a bath.

After she got out of bed, Qin Yu glanced at the bedding and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Gee!

My sister-in-law is probably possessed by the spirit of a beautiful female teacher.

……

The next day, at the summit.

The Supreme Elder and others never left.

There is no other reason.

Even Bai Huan, the Supreme Elder, couldn't fully comprehend the array patterns he possessed in just over a day.

They are now trying their best to copy these array patterns, and will slowly study and understand them later.

With their comprehension and spiritual attainments, as long as they can completely copy the array patterns, it won't be long before they can fully comprehend them.

Of course, this speed cannot compare to Qin Yu's personal guidance. Every profound change in the array patterns requires them to immerse themselves in and comprehend it.

"Elder Huan, if this formation can be repaired, the clan's protective formation should be able to increase its power by half a percent, right?"

Bai Lan gazed at the ancient formation in front of her, which had been partially repaired, a hint of undisguised pride on her face.

Bai Huan glanced at him and naturally knew what the other person was thinking.

However, he was too lazy to argue with him at that moment.

I'll let you be smug for a little while longer.

After the ancient formation is repaired, I will personally go to meet Qin Yu. Perhaps, by then, you won't be the only one calling him my son-in-law.

"Elder Huan, how should we respond to the Kong family?"

Although the Grand Elder shared the same thought, seeing Bai Lan's wary expression, he knew the chances were slim.

"I have spoken with the Supreme Elder of the Kong family and we are offering other resources in exchange for this marriage alliance."

Bai Huan said calmly.

Given the Kong family's style, they would definitely ask for an exorbitant price. However, after witnessing Qin Yu repair the ancient formation, he had already made his choice.

Even if it costs us some money, we cannot sacrifice Bai Yaosha!

Just as Bai Lan said, it's not certain whether the Qin Emperor can break through to the Venerable level.

Moreover, Bai Huan saw in Qin Yu the possibility of completely repairing the ancient formation!

If they can really achieve this, the Bai family will be invincible!

Amid the expectant gazes of the clan elders, two figures landed on the mountaintop.

"My dear son-in-law!"

"Master Qin!"

Bai Lan and the elders immediately broke into friendly smiles, and even the usually stern Supreme Elder nodded slightly in goodwill.

It turns out that the Supreme Elder is capable of smiling.

"My dear son-in-law, has your mental strength recovered so quickly? Why don't you rest for a few more days?"

"Yes, Master Qin, we're not in a hurry."

Looking at the elders who usually had stern faces with such expressions, Bai Yaosha still felt a little unreal.

This is completely different from what she has seen before.

"Om..."

After Qin Yu and Bai Lan bowed to each other, they did not linger and continued to repair the ancient formation.

His ideas differed from those of the Bai family's higher-ups. Although the Bai family's land was rich in spiritual energy, Qin Yu had not forgotten the purpose of his trip.

Moreover, he didn't know if there were any old guys secretly watching him in the Bai family's territory, so he didn't even return to his natal space.

This seriously delayed his cultivation progress!
Therefore, Qin Yu only wanted to repair the ancient formation as soon as possible and leave.

Having learned from the previous experience, Qin Yu was obviously much faster at repairing the array patterns. In just a short while, one array pattern had been completely repaired.

Bai Huan took the initiative to lock the first repaired array pattern.

Although Bai Lan and the elders had some complaints about this, they did not show it at all.

Given Qin Yu's speed in repairing the array patterns, they don't need to worry about not getting a share; it's just a matter of the order in which they do so.

Besides, I really can't beat the Supreme Elder, so there's no need to be stubborn.

This time, Qin Yu repaired a total of 150 array patterns. Of the originally incomplete ancient array, only one corner remained unrepaired.

The entire ancient formation was emanating an extremely obscure and profound energy. Even a Dao Establishment Realm expert standing in front of it could feel an extremely dangerous energy.

It's unimaginable what power this formation would possess if it were fully repaired.

"My dear son-in-law, you've worked hard!"

Seeing that Qin Yu's spiritual energy was exhausted, Bai Lan took out another precious pill and handed it to her.

This time, the other elders were also prepared, and they all took out pills as a sign of goodwill.

Qin Yu was well aware of the importance of repairing the ancient formation to the Bai family, and she accepted the task without hesitation.

As elders of ancient clans, any one of their prized pills would be the subject of a frenzied bidding war among countless forces in the outside world.

For Qin Yu, these pills that can quickly restore mental strength and even increase the upper limit of mental strength are extremely precious.

Seeing that Qin Yu accepted their pills, the elders were actually quite relieved.

Unlike Bai Lan and the Supreme Elder, they didn't have all sorts of ulterior motives. In their view, Qin Yu had a great chance of becoming a master of formations in the future.

If we can befriend them, we'd be happy to do anything, even if it meant getting them to give us more than just these pills.

Next two days.

After Qin Yu's mental strength recovered, she repaired the remaining fifty-odd array patterns in one go.

With the final array pattern completed, more than three hundred array patterns connected end to end, forming an ancient and profound array.

A mysterious and unpredictable aura emanated from the array, and the array patterns shimmered with a strange luster. As the array patterns surged, an obscure and inexplicable power flowed within them.

very powerful.

If they were to get caught up in it, even the elders wouldn't dare say they could escape unscathed.

At this moment, the Supreme Elder and Bai Lan and the others had solemn expressions on their faces, their eyes gleaming with barely suppressed excitement.

Restoring the Bai family's ancient formation is the lifelong pursuit of every core member of the Bai family!

In the past few days, they had thought that Qin Yu could repair the ancient formation, but when they saw it with their own eyes, the long-dormant passion in their bodies boiled again.

“Master Qin, if you do not mind, my Bai family is willing to serve you as a retainer.”

Bai Huan took a deep breath, his voice solemn.

Before this, they wanted to try to gain insights and improve their spiritual power by studying the array patterns.

However, after witnessing the restoration of the ancient formation, their attitudes changed significantly.

This single formation is enough to increase the power of the Thousand Leaves Locking Heaven Formation by more than half a percent!
In just a few days, Qin Yu saved the Bai family tens of thousands of years, or even longer!
Bai Lan and the other elders' expressions changed slightly, but they did not express any objections.

Based on Qin Yu's contributions to the Bai family, he is qualified to assume the title of "offering sacrifices".

In fact, the Bai family actually benefited.

Although they are generous with their resources, repairing an ancient formation is not something that can be accomplished simply by using resources.

"Ancient clan offerings?"

Qin Yu's heart stirred.

Even though he had only seen a small part of the Bai family, he could still imagine the immense resources of this ancient clan.

Even the Empress probably didn't expect that the Supreme Elder of the Bai family would agree to such conditions.
"Let's talk about this later."

Qin Yu hesitated for a moment. Although he really wanted to agree, he didn't know what kind of restrictions the ancient clan's offerings would impose.

It would be more prudent to wait until we consult the Empress before making a decision.

"Ok?"

Bai Huan was taken aback.

Throughout history, only a handful of people have been honored with the Bai family's ancestral temple.

Moreover, the opponents are all masters of formations in this era!

Today, the Bai family has no outsiders offering sacrifices to them.

Qin Yu actually declined?
"Uncle Lan, are you satisfied with this betrothal gift?"

Qin Yu looked at Bai Lan.

"Of course I'm satisfied!"

Bai Lan laughed loudly. To him, could there be a better betrothal gift in the world?

"Qin Yu has another request, I wonder if Uncle Lan can grant it?"

Qin Yu hesitated for a moment, glanced at Bai Yaosha, and then took a deep breath before speaking.

“My dear son-in-law, you’re too kind. As long as it’s within my power, I’ll do anything, even a thousand things, let alone one.”

Bai Lan waved her hand magnanimously and laughed.

"I also want to restore an ancient formation."

Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"it is good."

Bai Lan agreed without even thinking.

"Wait a minute."

Suddenly, Bai Lan realized what was happening and froze on the spot.

Bai Huan and the elders were also taken aback, a look of bewilderment appearing in their eyes.

What does this mean?
"Didn't Uncle Lan say that restoring an ancient formation would be considered a betrothal gift?"

"I want to restore another one."

"Shh!"

Before Bai Lan and the others could react, Bai Yaosha, who was not far away, blushed bright red.

Is this guy planning to offer two betrothal gifts?
My sister and myself?!
