Chapter 784: Dying of Anxiety

"Senior Brother, what should we do?" Zhiqiao and Jiuling, tied together, asked with bewildered expressions.

"It's been a long time since I last visited the Xuanjian Pavilion. I might as well take a stroll. Everyone, disperse for now," Zhang Ergou said with a sigh.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I've recently been practicing a technique and would like your guidance," Qianying said.

"Sure, no problem."

Zhang Ergou smiled, naturally having no issue with it.

"I'll look around too."

"The scenery at Xuanjian Pavilion is quite nice."

Tianyu, Fengjue, and Mieqiongqi also scattered, each going to find a place they wanted to visit.

The Fourteen Bandits of the Desert, however, were dumbfounded; today's shocks were too much.

Their boss had left carrying his wife—what were they supposed to do?

No, they had to act like they were part of the group and not show too much confusion.

Then the Fourteen Bandits of the Desert left, and the surrounding disciples also departed.

In the end, only Zhiqiao and Jiuling remained.

Snap!

"What are you doing? I want to go this way." They tried to go in separate directions, but tied together, neither could move.

"No way. Why should I listen to you? I'm going this way."

"Ha! Let's see who's stronger."

"Bring it on. Who's afraid of who?"

Zhiqiao and Jiuling immediately started tugging at each other on the spot.

...

The backyard was already empty.

Inside a room.

"You only come back after five years. Is there nothing you want to say to me?" Xuanyun Xian's faint, dissatisfied voice came from within.

"All words are in actions. My wife, did you miss me?"

"I did."

"I missed you to death too."

Rustle!

"Wife, why can't this be undone?" As time ticked by, Lin Fan's anxious voice came from the room.

"That's not how you undo it. Let me."

"No need, too troublesome. It's just a piece of clothing, isn't it? Can it stump me?"

Rip!

"See, undone. That was fast."

"Slow down. There's no rush. I want to hold you properly," Yunxian said.

"Wife, I'm not in a rush, but someone else is. My heart is about to jump out," Lin Fan said mischievously.

"Wife, your skin is whiter, softer, and smoother."

"That tickles!" Yunxian squirmed as he touched her.

"Hehe, let your husband give you a massage. It has magical effects."

"Don't massage there; it's already big enough," Yunxian said shyly.

"It's fine, it's fine. It's not too big. Round, firm, and beautiful either way."

Snap!

Mm...

A soft moan came from the room.

In broad daylight, such things happening—truly a sight too indecent to behold.

"Husband, how is the upper realm? Dangerous?"

"Not bad. About as intense as our current battle, but I can handle it," Lin Fan said with an apt analogy.

"This position is so embarrassing. Kneeling there, my body feels cold."

"No, your husband will keep you warm."

"Yes, spread a little more, a little more. Yes, like that. Perfect."

"Yunxian, your buttocks are beautiful, round, and perky."

...

"Husband, stop talking. It's so embarrassing."

"It's fine. We're an old married couple. Such beauty should be praised."

...

"Husband."

"Hmm?"

"Yunxian finds your tongue getting sweeter. In the upper realm, did you..."

"Hehe, wife, do you hope I did or didn't?"

"Ah, don't squeeze... don't squeeze. No, absolutely not. Mm... so good."

...

A battle, like a whirlwind, swept through every corner, leaving chaos in its wake.

Embarrassing sounds came from the room, echoing in the backyard.

But the backyard was empty, so no victims were created.

Night.

It was time for the meal.

Zhiqiao and Jiuling looked at the food before them, one holding chopsticks in the left hand, the other in the right.

Jiuling, being right-handed, picked up pieces of food and enjoyed them with relish.

Zhiqiao, holding chopsticks in her left hand, found it awkward. She picked up a piece of meat, but just as it reached her mouth, it fell off.

"Feed me."

Zhiqiao, seeing Jiuling eating so happily, also clamored.

"Don't you have hands?" Jiuling said.

"How can I eat with my left hand?" Zhiqiao said.

Jiuling glanced at Zhiqiao, then picked up a dish and put it into Zhiqiao's mouth.

"I want to eat this."

"I want to eat that."

"I want soup."

Zhiqiao looked at Jiuling, then picked up a spoon with her left hand and brought it to Jiuling's mouth.

Both Zhiqiao and Jiuling were troubled by the ribbon, but since it was their master's order, they dared not disobey.

For the two of them, sleeping together was the last thing they wanted.

But not sleeping together was impossible.

Even going to the toilet and bathing had to be together, which made them very uncomfortable.

Backyard.

Lin Fan held Xuanyun Xian in his arms, recounting what had happened in the upper realm.

Xuanyun Xian's heart clenched; when she heard about the dangers, she looked at Lin Fan with worry.

One spoke slowly, the other listened quietly.

For Xuanyun Xian, she hadn't expected her husband to have faced so many dangers, sometimes even brushes with death.

Lin Fan, of course, didn't mention being reversed-pinned by the Water and Fire Emperor; that would have been truly stupid.

"Husband, will you go back this time?" Xuanyun Xian gently stroked Lin Fan's cheek and asked.

"Of course I will. Things there aren't finished yet," Lin Fan said.

"Then won't we be separated again? Yunxian can't bear to leave you," Xuanyun Xian said.

"Don't worry. This time I came back to take you all with me," Lin Fan had already made up his mind.

Individual strength, though sometimes important, was too insignificant when going up against the Ancient Clans.

Only by uniting all forces could the Ancient Clans be defeated.

The Xuanhuang Realm was full of talents, and Lin Fan had already begun to lay plans. Although there would be no results in the short term, Lin Fan believed that before long, a batch of powerful talents would emerge.

"As long as we're not apart, Yunxian is satisfied."

Now, Xuanyun Xian no longer seemed like a sect master; she was more like a little woman.

"Mm, rest assured."

Sometimes Lin Fan thought how strange life was.

With a personality like his, he could still find a wife—that was good fortune.

"Alright, you've had a tiring day. Rest early. Tomorrow I need to go to the Holy Sect," Lin Fan said with a smile.

Xuanyun Xian's face reddened. Thinking of the day's frenzy, she couldn't believe she had been so wild.

What if the disciples found out?

But for Yunxian, none of that mattered anymore.
