Chapter: 148

Above the control center, Yun Che stared at blushing Xue'er, hiding behind Cang Yue, with a narrowed gaze.

"What happened?"

As if scared, she almost jumped and even hid her face behind Cang Yue, prompting Yun Che to look towards the smiling Cang Yue.

"What happened?" He inquired once again, to which Cang Yue raised her hand and gave Yun Che a thumbs up with a toothy smile.

"... What does that mean?" For the first time, Yun Che felt his intelligence being challenged as he stared at Cang Yue giving him a thumbs up. "You know what, forget it."

He sighed, knowing full well that his mischievous wife probably did something; he turned around and said.

"Let's go; we are leaving."

"That fast? We haven't even explored anything yet." Cang Yue replied but still followed behind Yun Che.

"What are you going to explore? It's a dead land with a profound beast. You won't find any treasures here." After all, they were inside the treasure itself.

"Hmm, is that so?" Cang Yue shrugged her shoulders before she jumped at Yun Che's back and hugged him, her ample bosom pressing against his back. She seductively whispered into his ear while gently kissing his neck, "Then why don't we spend some time in private? It has been a while."

"Only a week at most…" Yun Che deadpanned.

"That's a while!" Cang Yue protested and nestled her face into his neck. "And Cang Yue loves the way her husband touches her…" She paused for a second before she continued. "Don't you think it's time we have a child?"

Yun Che's footsteps halted, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face before he shook his head.

"Didn't we just decide that you will be going to the God Realm with me, and I will find you a teacher to further polish your Sword Art? We will not have time to take care of the child. So let's wait a little longer."

He did think about having a child before, but he changed his mind later. With his current strength, he would absolutely not have any problem with having a child. Just… with all that stuff that would be happening in the God Realm, he decided to wait a little.

Anyways, most of his wives wanted to see the God Realm and further increase their strengths. That way, neither he nor they would have any time to spare to spend on a child.

It was better to wait till they settled down for good. Not like Yun Che would become impotent if he didn't have a child right now.

"Ah, yes! I completely forgot that."

"..." Yun Che shook his head and turned towards the embarrassed Xue'er, who was playing with her fingers while stealing glances towards the couple from time to time.

"Xue'er, come. We are leaving." He raised his hand towards her. Shyly, Xue'er placed her soft little hand over his before she felt a pull, soon finding herself embraced by the warmth that she felt she might get addicted to.

"Oh my…" Cang Yue smiled mischievously with narrowed eyes. She bent down and softly whispered into Xue'er's red ear. "Don't forget what I said, Sister Xue'er. If you want Big Brother Yun, you have to take action yourself."

The blush over Xue'er's face had extended all the way to her neck. It looked like if it didn't stop, she might end up becoming a full tomato; she meekly nodded, her eyes slightly glazed and lost in thoughts.

Yun Che decided to turn a blind ear towards their talk and directly teleported outside.

"Welcome back, Realm King Yun." The moment he appeared outside, Feng Hengkong with the elders of the Phoenix Sect and Ju Qianrou immediately bowed. Hengkong's eyes landed on the crimson Xue'er, tightly embracing Yun Che with her head buried into his chest. A cunning glint appeared within his eyes, which he hid well, or at least tried his best.

"Um." Yun Che simply returned a nod before he raised his hand and opened it, his palm pointed towards the sky. The next instant, the whole Primordial Profound Ark shone and started to shrink.

In front of the amazed gazes of the Phoenix Sect and Ju Qianrou, the Primordial Profound Ark shrank to the size of a palm before it vanished within Yun Che's hand.

"Congratulations, Realm King Yun, for gaining the Primordial Profound Ark!" Everyone congratulated loudly with happy smiles, prompting Yun Che to raise his brow.

"Why are you guys getting so excited and happy? It's not like you guys got it."

Awkward expressions appeared on everyone's faces. Obviously, they were trying to butter up Yun Che. As the strongest existence within the Profound Sky Continent and the ruler of it, of course, they wanted to butter him up, trying to get into his good graces.

"Realm King Yun, Sect Master has recently broken into the Divine Realm and wishes to see the mythical God Realm. She has been trying to contact you, but she stopped since you have been to another continent. By your permission, should I inform the Sect Master of your return?"

"No need." Yun Che waved his hand. "For such matters, consult Yufeng. No need to bother me. If she gives permission, she may leave, but not before appointing a leader."

"Qianrou will inform the Sect Master about it." Qianrou bowed before he vanished, probably leaving for the Supreme Ocean Palace to inform Qu Fengyi.

"For how long are you going to keep hugging me?" Yun Che smiled amused, gently patting Xue'er's head, causing her body to tremble.

After a second, she raised her head and looked at Yun Che with glazed eyes.

"Xue'er likes when she is near Big Brother Yun. Even Xue'er's bloodline feels so excited."

Yun Che stared at the innocent-faced Xue'er as she looked up at him with a blushing expression. He could clearly see down at her cleavage due to the angle; instantly, his mind became aware of the sensation of her chest pressing against his.

'Now I understand why she is considered the most beautiful woman on this continent… Her innocence matched with her body is a real man's killer. If not for my skills, I'm sure I would be rock hard right now. Damn this cultivation world and its fascination with beauties.'

Yun Che gently flicked her forehead, causing her to tightly close her eyes.

"Silly girl, you have a duty to lead your sect. As the True Heir of the Phoenix, you have your own destiny. If you stay by my side all the time, you won't grow at all."

Xue'er's eyes became watery at Yun Che's rejection. It looked like she would burst into tears at any moment.

"About that…" Xue'er's head instantly turned towards her father with an expectant gaze. It almost caused Hengkong to choke on his words. Not wanting to disappoint his daughter's expectations, he decided to take the hit. "We don't mind if she stays with the Realm King. We are sure she will learn more with the Realm King than with our little empire."

Though he mainly wished to wed his daughter to Yun Che so he can gain the juicy gains that the Sacred Grounds were gaining right now. He also wanted to enter the Divine Realm!

Xue'er's eyes shone, and she turned towards Yun Che, once again staring at him with puppy eyes.

"Xue'er will be a good girl. She will do anything that Big Brother Yun wishes for her!"

"Fuu~, how bold~"

Yun Che's brow twitched at Cang Yue's remark. He could particularly feel a disgusting smirk widening over her face.

"Go, Sister Xue'er, Cang Yue is supporting you!"

"..." Before Yun Che could say anything, the temperature suddenly rose, and an intense suppression filled the surroundings. It caused Hengkong and the elders from the Phoenix Sect to feel like their lives weren't there any longer. A single thought, and it would extinguish.

"Since you are having a hard time making the decision, then let this noble one make one." Yun Che's lips twitched.

He turned his head around and looked above. Standing in front of the sun, with her long silver hair with a slight tint of gold flowing naturally in the air and her golden eyes shimmering with intense light.

Her face was hidden behind a thin golden veil while her robes tightly clung to her sinfully seductive body. Her eyes were sharp, full of arrogance and pride.

And under her arm, like a sack of potatoes, was unconscious Xue'er.

"What are you doing, Golden Crow?"

"Humph. This noble one doesn't need to inform you, my heir, of anything that this noble one does." She snorted arrogantly and raised her nose while pointing her already massive chest out.

Yun Che's eyes narrowed as a soft dark light flickered over his wrist, instantly deflating all the pride shown above the Golden Crow's expression.

"B-But s-since you are this noble one's heir, this noble one will be gracious enough to explain it to you." She nodded her head smugly, as if doing a favor. "This little chicken hasn't even awakened her bloodline. This noble one finds it disgusting. As much as this noble one hates Phoenix, this noble one will not let anyone sully her name. Hence, this noble one decided to personally train this sleeping chicken. How about it? Isn't this noble one great?"

Yun Che's eyes narrowed before a knowing look appeared on his face.

"You met Phoenix?"

A blank expression appeared on the Golden Crow's face as she wryly smiled behind her veil.

"It's sad seeing the state we have come to." She stared directly into Yun Che's eyes and bowed slightly. "It would be this noble one's request if you can show the Phoenix your grace. This noble one will remember this favor."

"You want me to…" Yun Che sighed. "Whatever. There is already one; having another one won't change anything. As long as you do your job and don't go out of control, I don't have any problem with it."

"But…" A palm-sized dark wheel appeared in his hand as he spun it above his finger like a fidget spinner and looked at the horrified Golden Crow. "Go against me, and I don't find it hard to remove you people once more. Of course, it's a different case if you decide to become my woman."

At the end, he smirked. Clearly remembering the wild time he had with the Golden Crow. Even now, he couldn't find anyone to compare with her.

A blush instantly appeared on the Golden Crow's face.

"H-hah! As if this noble one will become the woman of someone as weak as you. Become worthy of this noble one's grace first."

"Hahaha…" Yun Che laughed as the Golden Crow vanished with Xue'er.

"Brother Yun, she was…" Cang Yue appeared beside Yun Che and asked worriedly. It was all fun and games until one of her sisters was kidnapped just like that.

"Don't worry." Yun Che gently patted her head and smiled. "She was just one of your sisters. She just doesn't know it yet."

"Oh." Cang Yue nodded her head and said sadly. "Poor her."

Unaware, the Golden Crow was labeled as someone pitiful by Cang Yue for not even knowing her own future as Yun Che's woman.
