Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

The people from the Demon Sect have been waiting beside the City Lord’s Mansion.

This wait has lasted for quite some time.

It’s understandable for the Hall Master to summon them, but why is it taking so long?

They couldn’t figure it out.

However, one thing could be certain: in the future, the entire Yunlan Domain would likely be under the Cyan Mountain Sect’s control.

This is something that cannot be helped.

It is because the Cyan Mountain Sect Leader Su Xihe has taken a good disciple, and even went as far as to betroth the First Fairy’s Saintess sister to Qin Yu.

Back then, many people found it unbelievable, but now... they all admire the Cyan Mountain Sect Leader’s methods.

It is uncertain whether the Demon Sect even has any chance left.

Just now, it seemed like their eldest senior sister and that First Fairy were quite close to Qin Yu.

The elders of the Demon Sect occasionally glanced at Leng Feng.

To be reasonable, the First Fairy is an ethereal beauty, one that people dare not violate.

And Leng Ruyu, she is known as a captivating demoness, just one look from her would be hard for most people to withstand.

If they could lure Qin Yu to the Demon Sect, wouldn’t the Demon Sect enjoy the same privileges as the Cyan Mountain Sect?!

”Sect Leader.”

Elder Nether Bone had just spoken up when Leng Feng gave him a faint glance, forcing him to swallow back his words.

Evidently, the Demon Sect Leader is not about to trade his own little cabbage for those privileges!

”They are coming out!”

But the ones emerging were a group of elders from the Cyan Mountain Sect.

After coming out, their heads lifted a few degrees higher, and they even shot meaningful looks toward the cultivators of the Demon Sect.

It seemed like they were showing off.

Leng Feng’s brow furrowed slightly, yet he was indifferent.

His gaze remained fixed on the entrance, but he did not spot his daughter coming out.

What’s going on?!

He also noticed that the Cyan Mountain Sect Leader Su Xihe, Elder Liu Zixiao, Qin Yu, and Su Xiyue had not come out either.

Suddenly, his brows furrowed even deeper.

He felt a vague sense of bad premonition.

Not coming out means they might have settled in there, and the Hall Master clearly values only Qin Yu.

Unless... it’s someone who can be connected to Qin Yu.

Su Xiyue’s case is understandable; after all, Su Xihe is Qin Yu’s mentor, and Liu Zixiao can also be considered a secondary mentor.

But what identity did his daughter leave behind with?

The two immortal sects did have a honeymoon period; the Cyan Mountain Sect elders still came over and exchanged pleasantries with the Demon Sect cultivators.

Yet in their words, they made repeated mentions of the Hall Master, causing discomfort among the Demon Sect cultivators.

Despite the Demon Sect’s overall strength being superior to the Cyan Mountain Sect, because of one person, they have been completely overshadowed, and can hardly lift their heads.

Their resentment is palpable.

After the Cyan Mountain Sect cultivators departed, only the Demon Sect members remained, and some elders could hardly bear the embarrassment and left as well.

As night approaches.

”Father.”

Leng Feng was about to use the Sound Transmission Stone when a familiar voice sounded.

Looking up, it was his little cabbage coming out of the City Lord’s Mansion.

However, there was someone unexpected beside her—it was Qin Yu!

Behind Qin Yu followed a masked woman exuding no energy fluctuations whatsoever.

If you didn’t look closely, you wouldn’t even notice her existence.

With just a glance, Leng Feng’s expression turned solemn.

This is no ordinary matter!

Upon further thought, this filled him with a sense of dread.

But in the blink of an eye, Leng Ruyu was already in front of him.

Unclear why little cabbage and Qin Yu would come out together, Qin Yu had already greeted him, ”Qin Yu, greets Senior Leng.”

On the surface, he was calm, but inwardly he felt a bit jittery.

It felt like a son-in-law meeting the father-in-law for the first time.

Although it wasn’t his first time facing this Demon Sect Leader, back then, his relationship with Leng Ruyu hadn’t solidified yet; his mindset was different.

By now, after several years have passed, if they were in the mortal realm, he and Leng Ruyu would have children at least two years old.

”Young friend Qin, you’re too polite.”

Leng Feng, aware of the truth, knew that the Qin Yu before him was no longer the junior cultivator he once was, so he dared not assume superiority.

After exchanging pleasantries with Qin Yu, he shifted his gaze to Leng Ruyu.

Just one look was enough to ascertain that Leng Ruyu had truly stepped into the Golden Core Realm, and her calm presence clearly indicated that she had already stabilized her realm, unlike the unstable nature of someone newly entering the Golden Core Realm.

”Yu’Er, your cultivation...”

Leng Feng was full of doubts.

Wasn’t little cabbage healing at the Cyan Mountain Sect? How did she break through the realm alongside her healing?

Upon closely sensing, it seemed that Leng Ruyu had undergone some sort of change, though he couldn’t determine what exactly.

”Father, allow me to introduce my husband... Qin Yu.”

With a playful tone and a gentle smile, Leng Ruyu led Qin Yu forward, entwining her arm with his and naturally leaning against him, showcasing an intimate and unwavering closeness.

”???”

”!!!”

The exclamation marks naturally came from Leng Feng, the old father.

A group of elders from the Demon Sect stood frozen in place, faces displayed with shock, seemingly unable to retrieve themselves from the unexpected news.

Did they hear it wrong?

Since when did Qin Yu become Leng Ruyu’s husband?!

This sudden development filled Leng Feng, the old father, with perplexity.

”Yu’Er, what is this...?”

After a brief shock, looking at his little cabbage and Qin Yu’s intimately close manner, even if he couldn’t believe it at heart, reality stared him in the face.

Would they really deceive him on purpose?

Besides, there was no need to deceive; chiefly, their intimacy... wasn’t pretense.

This feels punishing!

The old father harbored mixed feelings.

Actually, he had suspected it for some time, it’s just that he found it hard to accept that such a major event was never mentioned by Leng Ruyu previously.

Recalling his previous intention to match her with her second aunt...

Upon this realization, Leng Feng’s mind cleared, as if seeing the sun through clouds, all doubts aligning rationally.

No wonder Leng Ruyu reacted strangely at that time.

Could it be that they were already together back then?!

That was two years ago ah.

The more he thought, the more troubled the old father felt. Once more, he looked behind the couple, as if seeking a little grandson.

Fortunately, there was none.

Then, Leng Feng’s gaze finally settled on Qin Yu, somewhat scrutinizing.

Truthfully, be it appearance, talent, or any aspect, he could hardly find fault with Qin Yu. Yet...

Everything about him was just irritating.

However, with matters reaching this stage, what else could he say?

Was he really going to forcibly separate the couple?

With his daughter’s situation, likely... that would be difficult.

Leng Feng also knows his daughter’s temperament; he couldn’t help but sigh deeply, ”You...”

Although it’s just two words, they encapsulated the old father’s helplessness and bitterness.

Unlike Leng Feng, the surrounding elders of the Demon Sect seemed enlightened.
