After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Nangong Li stood outside the door with her arms crossed, her beautiful eyes sweeping over Lin Fengmian's face, then glancing at Yun Caiyue, before finally saying nothing and turning to walk out.

Lin Fengmian touched his nose and quickly followed.

Meanwhile, inside the Immortal City.

Ye Fan was holding ninety-nine carefully selected "Nine-Heart Exquisite Orchids" and wearing a pure white robe of the Holy Son of Tianxuan Holy Land.

Standing on a bustling street corner, with an impeccable gentle smile on her face, she waited quietly.

He cursed inwardly:

"That little bitch, she actually made this holy son wait so long! Once I obtain your primordial yin body, and use the secret art of lovemaking to replenish my yang energy and break through to the Golden Core stage, I will torture you endlessly in bed day and night! I'll let you know who the master is!"

Just as he was using the mental victory technique, mentally manipulating Chu Qingyi at will,

A white sword light pierced through the clouds in the distance and arrived gracefully.

It was Chu Qingyi.

Today, Chu Qingyi was still dressed in a snow-white dress, the flowing satin fabric clinging to her exquisite curves, her slender waist seemingly impossible to encircle.

Her breasts were full and perky, and a section of her fair, jade-like calves was visible beneath her skirt.

That exquisitely beautiful face bore a lingering trace of melancholy, which only added to its captivating charm.

Ye Fan involuntarily swallowed a large mouthful of saliva, his eyes almost overflowing with greed.

"Damn, I've seen her so many times, this woman is fucking slutty! That figure, that face..."

A surge of anger welled up inside him.

"If it weren't for the fact that dual cultivation requires the woman's consent and the fusion of yin and yang for it to be effective, and that forcing it would greatly diminish its benefits, I'd really like to tie her up and take her right now!"

"Qingyi, you've arrived."

Ye Fan instantly switched back to his affectionate mode, stepping forward with the spirit flowers in hand, his smile gentle.

"This is the 'Nine-Hearted Exquisite Orchid,' which blooms only once a year. It has the effect of calming the mind and aiding in cultivation. I specially found it for you."

Chu Qingyi looked downcast, her brows and eyes shrouded in an unyielding melancholy.

Upon seeing the radiant spiritual flower that Ye Fan handed her, her first reaction was to instinctively shrink back.

"This flower... Ye Fan touched it. If I touch it, Lin Fengmian will be angry... He said he's a germaphobe."

The thought popped up without warning, leaving her stunned.

"Why...why should I listen to him! He's a scoundrel! A lecher!"

"We're already so close, why should I care if he's angry or not!"

Chu Qingyi cursed herself inwardly in anger.

But his body betrayed him; instead of reaching out to take it, he took a half-step back, distancing himself from the bouquet.

Ye Fan's hand holding the flower froze in mid-air, and the smile on his face almost disappeared.

"You bitch! Stop pretending to be so high and mighty!"

He cursed inwardly, a flash of malice crossing his eyes, but he quickly composed himself, displaying just the right amount of doubt and concern.

"Qingyi, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Or do you... not like these flowers?"

"No, no." Chu Qingyi forced a smile, her voice somewhat hoarse.

"Brother Ye Fan, thank you for your kindness. However... I'm here on official business. I need to see Sister Caiyue. Our Chu family's contract with her has expired and needs to be renewed."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan's mind raced, and his smile returned to its bright appearance:

"Fairy Yunyue? So Qingyi has come for this matter. Very well, I'll accompany you. Speaking of which, my Ye family and the Yun family have some ancestral ties, perhaps I can be of some help."

He sneered inwardly:

I've long heard that this "Fairy in Colorful Clothes" Yun Caiyue not only has exceptional talent in alchemy, but also possesses a beautiful and refined appearance, and has a grandfather who is a near-fourth-level alchemist as her backer.

If she's pretty enough, this holy son might 'reluctantly' take her as a concubine.

"Then, I can have her refine pills for me during the day, and at night... hehe, wouldn't that be like living in paradise? Plus, I'd have a powerful ally!"

Thinking of the wonderful parts, Ye Fan almost laughed out loud and urged:

"Haha, let's hurry up and go, Qingyi, don't keep Fairy Yun waiting."

Chu Qingyi looked at the smile on Ye Fan's face.

This made Chu Qingyi feel inexplicably uncomfortable, and she felt a sudden wave of nausea for no reason.

"It must be because of that bastard Lin Fengmian! He's the one who's disturbed my peace of mind, making me dislike everyone!"

She once again attributed the cause to the unsettling figure, took a deep breath, suppressed her agitation, and said, "Okay, let's go."

Inside the elegant courtyard of Yun Caiyue.

Lin Fengmian and Yun Caiyue walked out of the inner room side by side.

Yun Caiyue tilted her head back and smiled gently at Lin Fengmian:

"Brother Fengmian, I'll go to the side hall first to discuss the specifics of the cooperation with Sister Nangong's family. Please sit here for a while, or perhaps Sister Nangong could accompany you for a stroll in the courtyard?"

"Okay, Caiyue, you go ahead with your work." Lin Fengmian nodded, his gaze gentle.

Yun Caiyue obediently responded, then nodded slightly to Nangong Li beside her.

Then she turned and left with light steps, her colorful clothes fluttering like a graceful little butterfly.

Her figure had just disappeared at the corner of the corridor.

"Sister Caiyue~~"

Nangong Li crossed his arms, glanced at Lin Fengmian sideways, and said in a sarcastic tone, drawing out his words.

Lin Fengmian chuckled and naturally reached out his hand.

He pressed his palm against Nangong Li's alluring black-stockinged legs, which were even more tempting as she sat with her legs crossed, and felt the warm, supple skin beneath the thin fabric with his fingertips.

The woman is feeling a bit sour right now, so I need to give her a couple more pats to "soothe" her.

"Li'er, Caiyue is really just my long-lost sister. We didn't do anything in the room just now, we just caught up, and she gave me some pills to remove the poison."

His tone was sincere, but his hands didn't stop moving.

"Hmph!" Nangong Li snorted through her nose and turned her face away, but she didn't move her legs, letting him stroke her.

"Husband, you have so many powerful 'sisters'! Are there any more? Tell me all of them, so I can see if they're some important figures or powerful backers?"

"Hehe, really, that's all. This is the only one left." Lin Fengmian said with a forced smile.

"Do you have a crush on her?"

Nangong Li suddenly turned her head, her beautiful eyes staring straight at him, her tone interrogative.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fengmian subconsciously felt a moment of guilt.

But then he immediately became self-righteous.

Although she and Nangong Li had already consummated their marriage, they hadn't yet completed the formalities for becoming a Daoist couple!

Strictly speaking, I am currently still a "free agent".

So he nodded readily and said frankly:

"Caiyue is indeed very good to me. She is kind, gentle, and considerate. I do have some feelings for her."

Nangong Li almost thought there was something wrong with his ears.

Now... no one hides their backs anymore? So open about it?!

This man really does fall in love with every girl he sees!

"Hmph!" Nangong Li snorted coldly again, her pretty face frosty, but she had made up her mind:

"I must cultivate with him tonight no matter what!"

We must feed him well, then he won't have the energy to look for other 'sisters'!
