For a moment, Lin Xuankong couldn't help but let his gaze flicker, carefully admiring the unparalleled beauty before him. In his heart, he didn't harbor any lewd thoughts; after all, everyone has an appreciation for beauty, let alone such a peerless woman. As a man, it's only natural to take a few more looks!

However, Third Princess Xiaoo Ying'Er felt a bit embarrassed after being stared at by Lin Xuankong like this.

At this moment, her heart was filled with countless doubts, but thinking that these doubts might concern Mr. Mu's secrets, she found it hard to ask.

Thus, the two remained silent, one admiring the other. The secret chamber was very quiet, and the atmosphere became somewhat romantic.

Third Princess Xiaoo Ying'Er's mind was in turmoil. For some reason, she suddenly thought of the time when Mr. Mu asked her to call him husband!

After a while, Xiaoo Ying'Er, who was originally a bit shy, suddenly raised her eyes, staring directly at Lin Xuankong. "Mr. Mu, you are so talented, and your methods are beyond Ying'Er's imagination! Even the Immortal Sect's True Inheritance can be subdued by you and made to work for you! Compared to you, Ying'Er, this so-called Third Princess of Great Xia and Celestial Sect Saintess, is truly worthless! But Ying'Er still wants to ask Mr. Mu one question. When you asked Ying'Er to call you husband back then, was it really just a joke?"

After speaking, she stared seriously at Lin Xuankong, her beautiful eyes filled with complex emotions.

Lin Xuankong felt a headache coming on as he heard her question.

He already had a Young Lady and Yu Fei at home, and he was quite content with that... He never thought of taking this Third Princess of Great Xia as a wife too!

However, seeing Xiaoo Ying'Er a bit downcast, calling herself worthless as the Third Princess of Great Xia, and recalling Xiaoo Ying'Er's spirited demeanor in the past, he couldn't help but feel a slight sorrow.

If he admitted it was a joke back then, this Third Princess of Great Xia...

After pondering for a while, feeling somewhat troubled, Lin Xuankong looked at Xiaoo Ying'Er. "What are you saying, Ying'Er? As the Celestial Sect Saintess, you have a noble status, far superior to mine as an Independent Practitioner from the countryside! As for the husband thing… Ying'Er is as beautiful as a celestial being and has the title of the top prodigy of the Great Xia Dynasty. There's probably no man in the world who wouldn't be moved by the Third Princess! It's just that I already have a wife at home!"

Third Princess Xiaoo Ying'Er, hearing him mention having a wife at home, hesitated for a moment. Then, she looked at Lin Xuankong, a smile suddenly gracing her lips. "So, Mr. Mu wasn't completely unmoved by Ying'Er?"

"Besides, Ying'Er never said she wanted to marry Mr. Mu right now, nor did she say she wanted Mr. Mu to become her Prince Consort. So, what does Mr. Mu mean by suddenly mentioning having a wife at home!"

Lin Xuankong was speechless. Was this girl teasing him? The atmosphere had just been perfectly set, and he'd thought she would say, 'Ying'Er doesn't care about anything else, whether you have a wife or not, Ying'Er just likes you and wants to be with you'... but it turned out this Third Princess was quite mischievous!

This thought had just crossed his mind when Lin Xuankong saw Xiaoo Ying'Er walk directly to him, then slightly stand on her tiptoes… This Third Princess of Great Xia, Celestial Sect Saintess, and the top prodigy of the Great Xia Dynasty actually leaned on his shoulder!

"Mr. Mu, your talent and various abilities have long surpassed Ying'Er's imagination. Truly, Ying'Er has never met such an extraordinary man!" Xiaoo Ying'Er said softly. "And you have saved Ying'Er several times; how could Ying'Er not be moved! Ying'Er is actually very happy to have your affection!"

Lin Xuankong, smelling the faint fragrance from her and listening to her soft murmurs, couldn't help but feel his heart stir.

He was about to put his arm around her, but Xiaoo Ying'Er suddenly kissed his cheek and then stepped back.

She looked at the slightly surprised Lin Xuankong and said softly, "Since I've already called you husband, Ying'Er will surely regard Mr. Mu as her husband from now on, and the only husband in this life! It's just... it's just that Ying'Er's Profound Phoenix Strange Vein is quite unique!"

Lin Xuankong was astonished. "Besides being able to cultivate the Blood Bath Divine Skill, what other special features does the Profound Phoenix Strange Vein have?"

Xiaoo Ying'Er lowered her head slightly and said softly, "The Profound Phoenix Strange Vein is an extremely rare Ancient Strange Vein. Its miraculous effects are only slightly recorded in the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect's scriptures! Perhaps even the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and Cao Yu don't know that once this Profound Phoenix Strange Vein engages in marital relations with a man, it can immediately help both the man and herself to break through Realms. Even if the other party is an Earth Immortal, it can help them break through their bottleneck!"

At this, Xiaoo Ying'Er paused, her eyes flickering as she looked at Lin Xuankong. "From today, Ying'Er is devoted to you, Mr. Mu! The miraculous effects of this Strange Vein will always be reserved for you. If you encounter a bottleneck in your cultivation in the future, you can... you can..."

Seeing her suddenly stammer, Lin Xuankong couldn't help laughing out loud. "Eat you?"

Xiaoo Ying'Er was speechless.

With Li Xiaohu pretending to be Cao Yu and acting as an insider, Lin Xuankong did not have to worry about the ten Late Stage Ninth Layer disciples of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect causing any more trouble or setting traps in the short term.

Moreover, with numerous Spiritual Objects and hundreds of thousands of pounds of High-Tier Demon Flesh, Lin Xuankong had no other demands for the time being. So, after returning to the Lin Residence, he went directly back to the Secret Realm to focus on cultivation.

In cultivation, time seemed to lose its meaning.

「In what felt like the blink of an eye, three months passed.」

During this period, Lin Xuankong successfully broke through to the Seventh Layer Realm. Furthermore, thanks to the Great Xia Dynasty and the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect continuously collecting Demon Pearls and Geng Metal Crystals for him, his Immortal Sword was finally nurtured to First Grade.
