"What? You're my fiancée. Can't I see you as soon as I arrive at the Xuanling Sect?" Chu Yang said with a half-smile.

"Of course, no problem." Lin Xi lowered her gaze slightly.

"come over."

At this moment, Chu Yang waved to signal.

Lin Xi paused for a moment before walking to Chu Yang's side.

Chu Yang glanced at Lin Xi a few times, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth. Then he reached out, grabbed Lin Xi's wrist, and pulled her into his arms.

"Chu Yang? What are you doing?!"

Pressed against his burning chest, Lin Xi trembled and couldn't help but struggle.

"Don't move."

Hearing Chu Yang's shout, Lin Xi had no choice but to gradually calm down.

Feeling the soft, plump, and jade-like body in his arms, and smelling the familiar fragrance around his nose, Chu Yang couldn't help but stroke her long, snow-white hair.

If any disciple of the Xuanling Sect were to witness such a scene, they would surely be astonished.

They might go insane and their Daoist heart would collapse.

Their dominant force, the Xuanling Sect, boasts a white-haired sword immortal who is the most admired and adored of the five beauties, and the sect's top genius.

Why is she so obediently snuggling into a man's arms right now?

Should we just let them manipulate us?

Where is the law of heaven?

Where is justice?

This is absolutely outrageous!

Why wasn't that man me?!

"I joined the Xuanling Sect for two reasons: first, for the Xuanhuang True Flame, and second, for you."

"For me?" Lin Xi asked suspiciously.

She forced herself to turn her head to look at Chu Yang, too afraid to move at all.

"I told you before that I would treat you as my real fiancée, so we need to build a real relationship."

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? I came here to tell the Xuanling Sect that you are my woman, my fiancée, and that they need to understand their place."

Chu Yang gently grasped Lin Xi's chin and turned her head slightly.

Lin Xi's pupils contracted.

Is Chu Yang going to make his marriage contract with him public?

Let the entire Xuanling Sect know?

"Does it really have to be this way?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Chu Yang was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Xi's reaction.

"Lin Xi, you were the one who made me do this before. You wanted me to treat you as my real fiancée, you wanted me to treat you as a real person."

"I'm no longer enslaving you, but rather proving your identity, and now you're unhappy?"

Happy my ass!

What I said last time was that I wanted freedom!

I said that last time to refute your domineering control!

Who wants to be your fiancée?!

You perverted bastard!

You filthy scoundrel!!

"Or do you still have feelings for certain people in the Xuanling Sect? Like that Shen Lingtian?"

"How many relationships do you want to have?"

As he spoke, Chu Yang's gaze took on a dangerous curve.

"I didn't!" Lin Xi immediately retorted.

"I have no lingering feelings for anyone!"

Neither you nor I have it!

Chu Yang wasn't angry. "Very well, then tomorrow you'll be the one to reveal the relationship between us."

"Tomorrow you just need to tell them about our relationship. It's okay if you don't like me now."

"......"

"Chu Yang, can we discuss this?"

Lin Xi turned around and looked at Chu Yang expectantly.

"I am at least a well-known figure in the Xuanling Sect. The line of people who want to pursue me could stretch all the way to Qingyang City."

"If you just ask me to take the initiative, it'll make it sound like I'm determined to marry you, but we don't have any feelings for each other at all right now."

"You said you would treat me as your real fiancée, so you should respect my wishes."

"Do you think it's not worth doing this for me?"

"...I guess so."

"You really dare to say anything..." Chu Yang said softly.

"So what do you think should be done?"

Chu Yang continued to play with Lin Xi's hair and asked.

Lin Xi's bright eyes darted around. "Why don't you go and say it yourself?"

"If other people ask, then you can just answer them yourself; I have no objection to that."

Chu Yang smiled knowingly; he knew exactly what this woman was thinking.

"Of course you have no objection to that."

"If you said it yourself, then so be it. After all, it's something you admitted yourself, and no matter how unwilling others are, there's nothing they can do about it."

"But if I were to say it, and you didn't understand, I would instantly become the enemy of the entire sect."

"How many people will dislike me and want to teach me a lesson then?"

"After all, my proposal was a kind of provocation to them."

"You should be happy to see this, right?"

Lin Xi dared not meet Chu Yang's gaze.

She did have that thought.

Who told Chu Yang to always bully her in the past?

What's wrong with letting the disciples of the Xuanling Sect make things a little more difficult?

However, Lin Xi would definitely not say that on the surface.

She said solemnly:

"I mainly believe in you. You are a reborn person and the chosen one. Even if the entire sect were combined, you would not be a match for you."

"I have absolute confidence in your abilities, so I think it's fine for you to say it."

"And your thinking is strange. Why would I be happy to see you being bullied by them?"

"You're my fiancé!"

"Even if things aren't great, you're still my fiancé, and they're just my fellow disciples!"

"How could I allow someone close to me to be bullied by outsiders?"

"Do you think I wouldn't understand which is more important?"

"I just believe in you, I just feel that there's a possibility for us to continue."

"You woman..."

Meeting Lin Xi's sincere gaze, Chu Yang felt a mix of emotions.

Why? Why does this woman understand him so well now?

So good at comforting him?

What she said now was a very satisfactory answer for him.

Even though he suspected she was just putting on an act.

But at least she is aware of this level of understanding.

When did this woman become so different, that he looked at her with new respect?

"......"

"What? Did I say something wrong?" Lin Xi asked, puzzled.

Chu Yang gently shook his head. "You didn't say anything wrong."

"Okay, since you're so sensible, I agree."

"I will also participate in this martial arts tournament and defeat them all to win the championship."

"Leave them far behind."

"So now I'm officially his fiancé, right?"

"You agreed?" Lin Xi's expression lit up with joy.

"I agree, but I have one condition."

"What are the conditions?"

"Call me 'husband' so I can hear it."

Chu Yang slightly raised his knees, causing Lin Xi to tremble slightly, and her chest heaved.

Lin Xi was taken aback.

"Call you husband??"

"Yes, call it now, otherwise I might change my mind."

"???"

No, what are you doing?!

You want me to call you husband?!

This...this is so hard to grit my teeth!

"What? You're not happy about it?"

"Since that's the case, then forget it. You can tell us the rest yourself."

"No, I'll scream! I'll scream, okay?!"

Lin Xi looked somewhat awkward. She struggled for a moment, her red lips trembling slightly.
