After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

Pushing open the door, the room was empty.

Shi Yan's fist was already clenched.

She would stop at nothing for Xiaxia.

even--

He's going to live off a woman.

The Shi family?

Ming family?

The strongest member of the Shi family remaining in Nanjun City is the Second Elder, who is in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

That Fourth Elder is nothing but a useless person whose lifespan is about to end and who has not yet broken through to the Golden Core Realm.

His son is quite strong; he left the Shi family early to gain experience, and his strength may be at the Nascent Soul stage.

As for the Ming family, the patriarch of the Ming family is probably in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

They were no match for Wen Ruya or Yunyi, who were at the Nascent Soul stage.

If you can't handle it yourself, you can always go and help others.

Take a deep breath.

The girl's round, full breasts rose and fell with her breath.

The anger in his eyes had already subsided.

She gradually calmed down.

Xiaxia was his childhood sweetheart, and even if she got married, she would still be his "sister".

The lineage of Shi Yan is the true orthodox lineage of the Shi family.

However, in the background, Shi Yan's father married someone he shouldn't have, which indirectly led to the early death of Shi Yan's grandfather, the head of the Shi family.

There was no news of either of her parents.

This is why Shi Yan, as the protagonist, has such an "awkward" position.

But... no matter what, Shi Yan is the heir of the Shi family.

Even if Xiaxia is to get married, the wedding will be held to the highest standards, so there won't be any crisis in the short term.

She can still salvage everything.

At worst—

It means going to sleep with Wen Ruya or Hua Xiangrong.

Then, they would take Wen Ruya or Yunyi to the Ming family and castrate Ming Zhongle.

Then marry the Fourth Elder's good grandson to him, and wish them happiness for the rest of their lives.

Just as Shi Yan was building up his anger, creak—

The wooden door behind her suddenly opened.

In her anger, Shi Yan couldn't recall that Xia Xia might prefer to stay in her older sister's room rather than her own in this courtyard.

The girl stood there blankly.

slam-la-

The things in his hands fell to the ground.

Xiaxia rushed straight towards Shi Yan and threw herself into his arms.

The girl's long, strong legs wrapped tightly around Shi Yan's waist, and Shi Yan supported the girl's full, soft curves.

Xiaxia cried so hard, her face streaked with tears.

Shi Yan could only turn around and close the girl's door behind him, then carry her into her own room.

She sat down on the edge of Xiaxia's bed.

The girl's shoulders trembled, and she cried for a long time before slowly stopping her sobs. She looked up at Shi Yan, and then slowly realized what kind of position she and her older sister were in.

The girl's ears were slowly filled with blood.

But... by then it was too late for her to get off the bus.

Her thighs were intertwined and locked together, her body almost completely nestled in her older sister's warm embrace, their lines nearly perfectly aligned.

It was almost impossible for her to get off Shi Yan's lap without making a sound. The girl could only remain stiff in this position, holding onto Shi Yan's shoulders for balance.

"Sister...Sister..." Xiaxia cried to Shiyan, looking aggrieved.

Something happened in Xifang.

A powerful demonic cultivator broke into the brothel. Although he was successfully killed, countless demons, monsters, ghosts, and vengeful spirits still escaped.

Some powerful demons can even kill cultivators in the late stage of the Crystallization Realm.

Although the Xingtian Division, responsible for public order and criminal matters, has taken full control and sealed off the Jiaofang Division and the Xifang Division,... many people still suffered accidents.

And coincidentally... someone said they saw the young master of the Shi family appear in the West Ward that day, and even escaped into the Starry Sky Division.

The Fourth Elder and the Ming family colluded in their evil deeds.

Convinced that Shi Yan's current weak cultivation level made escape impossible, and given that Shi Yan had been out of contact for two days, they decided to grant Ming Zhongle's wish and arrange a marriage alliance with the Ming family.

but--

The Shi family is not a place where the Fourth Elder has absolute power.

The Third Elder and the Fifth Elder each had their own ulterior motives, while the Second Elder, who held the most authority, stated that... regardless of whether Shi Yan was alright or not, Shi Xia's opinion should be respected in this matter.

In the end, this matter can only remain unresolved.

"Xiaxia...Xiaxia doesn't want to marry him." The girl sobbed in Shi Yan's arms, "Sister said...Xiaxia is sister's future wife."

She couldn't stop sobbing; the sight of the girl weeping was truly pitiful.

"Whether or not my sister has Qianrou or other sisters... Xiaxia belongs to my sister."

Even if my sister doesn't want Xiaxia anymore...

"Xiaxia will not marry anyone else; Xiaxia will stay with her sister forever."

"Idiot..." Shi Yan couldn't help but kiss the corner of the girl's eye. Xia Xia's eyes widened suddenly, and her sobs stopped abruptly.

Shi Yan helped the girl up, then turned and bent down.

Xiaxia was gently put down by her.

The girl's back pressed against the bed, and her hands, which had been clinging to Shi Yan's shoulders, slowly fell down, resting on the sheets on either side of her head as if in surrender.

That posture was timid and helpless, and at the same time... its fragility would irresistibly ignite a desire to conquer in one's heart.

“I told you…” the teacher whispered in the girl’s ear.

Half of her weight was almost pressing down on Xiaxia.

For Xia Xia, who had already broken through to the Qi Refining Realm, it wasn't heavy, but... it made her feel very at ease.

"I will not let go."

"Xiaxia is my daughter-in-law... and always will be."

"until..."

"Official appointment." Shi Yan's lips curled into a wide smile.

The girl's previously helpless expression instantly filled with satisfaction. Her heart, which had been filled with despair due to the lack of news from her teacher, was suddenly stabilized.

Is it about becoming a full-fledged employee?

Her ears were bright red, but the girl was smiling contentedly.

She watched as her older sister leaned down and slowly closed her eyes.

Looking at the little face that was almost streaked with tears, Shi Yan's eyes grew sharper and sharper, as if a ferocious beast was roaring angrily.

Heh... Fourth Elder?

Can you see... the calamity of mourning?

Part 46: The Evil Spirit of Mid-Year [Midnight Update]

Carefully removing the girl's shoes and socks as she slept, Shi Yan wiped the girl's soft lips, then got up and covered her with the blankets.

The girl's pitiful appearance earlier made her heart ache so much that she could hardly breathe.

The Fourth Elder...?

Shi Yan's eyes were filled with a fierce and sharp aura, so sharp that it seemed he could tear apart even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

It's not just a complete exaggeration.

The White Tiger, the fiercest deity of the year, represented the ultimate in brutality and violence. Wherever the White Tiger went, evil spirits and heretics would retreat, and even spiritual energy would give way.

He leaned down and kissed the girl's ear.

She was preparing to leave.

But... it turned out that even though she was so tired that she fell asleep, the girl's small hands were still tightly gripping the hem of her clothes, as if she was afraid that she would disappear.

Shi Yan took Xia Xia's small hand in his hands, preparing to gently massage it.

But... he noticed the ring on the girl's hand.

The girl moved her utterly ordinary storage ring from her right middle finger to her ring finger.

If the right middle finger simply represents "having someone you love," then the right ring finger represents "being taken."

Xia Xia silently expressed her determination.

She is the elder sister's daughter-in-law awaiting marriage, and... she can only be the elder sister's daughter-in-law awaiting marriage.

It has nothing to do with whether the elder sister is just a woman disguised as a concubine.

The fierce look in Shi Yan's eyes grew increasingly dangerous, even... as if one could see a ferocious tiger ready to devour its prey in the girl's eyes.
