Ye Qiu chuckled, surprised that Lin Yuechan could be so humorous.

"Alright, alright, let's do as I say. It's impossible for my good-for-nothing father to lead the cultivators of the lower realm to establish their authority. Only you can do it," Lin Yuechan said.

"Let's talk about that later. Let's focus on preparing for the wedding first," Ye Qiu said.

"Okay," Lin Yuechan said. "Let's go, I'll take you to find a place to stay."

"Whatever arrangements you make, I'll just stay with you."

Ye Qiu embraced Lin Yuechan.

“That won’t do,” Lin Yuechan said. “We’re getting married soon. If we sleep together before the wedding, people will laugh at me. I don’t want to be laughed at.”

"Then I'll go sleep outside and come back on our wedding day."

After saying this, Ye Qiu waved his hand and walked away.

"Stop! Then...you can sleep with me," Lin Yuechan said through gritted teeth.

"Let's forget about it," Ye Qiu said with a smile. "I'll come back the day after tomorrow. I'll take these two days to go out and see if the cultivators in Wanhua City have any ambitions. I'll do some research."

"Alright, then remember to come, and don't try to fool me," Lin Yuechan said.

"Okay, wait for me."

Ye Qiu hugged Lin Yuechan and turned to leave.

...

A moment later, Ye Qiu left Wanhua Gate and walked through the city.

Almost everyone in the city already knows Ye Qiu.

Therefore, as Ye Qiu traveled along, all he heard and saw was a scene of utmost reverence.

"Mr. Ye, where are you headed?"

Someone asked out of curiosity.

"Just wander around casually, don't overdo it, just relax."

Ye Qiu waved and quickly walked away.

To avoid trouble, Ye Qiu found a mask and put it on.

After wandering around for a while, Ye Qiu arrived at an inn. Just as he was about to go in, a charming and seductive voice suddenly came from inside: "This inn is not good. Why don't you go to the one I'm staying at?"

Ye Qiu turned his head, taken aback: "How come it's you?"

"What? Are you surprised to see me? Or do you not want to see me?"

The charming voice rang out again.

This is a voluptuous and sexy woman, her face veiled by a light gauze, her captivating peach blossom eyes extremely alluring.

This person is the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Palace, and her name is Xiao Miaoyin.

When Ye Qiu and Lin Yuechan were traveling through the Void Ancient Realm, they spent a few days with Xiao Miaoyin.

Although Xiao Miaoyin was also from the Upper Realm, her way of doing things was completely different from that of the Imperial Sword Sect and the like.

"Miss Miaoyin, what brings you here?" Ye Qiu asked curiously.

"I came here specifically to see you." Xiao Miaoyin stretched out her jade-like fingers and gently traced them across Ye Qiu's chest. "It's been a year since we last met. I've been having erotic dreams every night, and you're the male lead."

So every morning when I wake up, I feel like I'm covered in mud.

"Huh?" Ye Qiu was dumbfounded: "Really?"

"Of course it's true. I can't hold back anymore. See for yourself if you don't believe me."

Xiao Miaoyin moved close to Ye Qiu, her fiery appearance extremely alluring.

Few men can resist a woman like that.

But Ye Qiu knew this was no ordinary woman; she must have something important to do if she had followed him all the way to Wanhua City.

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

Ye Qiu stared at Xiao Miaoyin, his eyes clear.

"Can't we take care of the important business first, and then talk about other trivial matters?"

"No, I can't say."

"You really have no sense of romance," Xiao Miaoyin said sweetly.

"My purpose in coming to you is actually very simple. My master has always disliked the style of having power from the upper realm, so I want to cooperate with you to remove some malignant tumors, or to change some things in your way."

"Why are you helping me?" Ye Qiu asked, puzzled.

"It's very simple," Xiao Miaoyin whispered. "It's not just me who wants to cultivate with you, but my master does too."

Ye Qiu was speechless.

Xiao Miaoyin's master is probably an old demon, and he doesn't want to fall into his clutches.

However, the matter of cooperation is worth discussing.

"If I agree, will you benefit from it?" Ye Qiu asked.

“Yes, I can,” Xiao Miaoyin said. “There is a powerful force in the upper realm called the Three Paths Sect, which is my master’s mortal enemy.”

Long ago, the sect leader of the Three Paths Sect and my master were Daoist partners. However, I never expected that the Three Paths Sect would use my master to obtain the treasured skills of his family and combine them with other techniques to create a Three Paths Technique, which then dominated the region.

After using my master, the sect leader of the Three Paths Sect abandoned him. My master has spent his entire life thinking about how to avenge himself, so cooperating with you should be able to achieve that goal.

"Understood." Ye Qiu smiled and said, "Go back and tell your master that I agree to cooperate with you."

“Since you’ve agreed, then I don’t need to go back. I’ll stay by your side and help you. My junior sisters will arrive in a few days,” Xiao Miaoyin said.

“Alright, then you can stay at the inn,” Ye Qiu said.

"I don't want to." Xiao Miaoyin hurriedly shook her head: "I am your woman, I will go wherever you go."

"Don't do this," Ye Qiu said. "I'm getting married to Lin Yuechan soon, it's not appropriate for you to be with me."

"Really?" Xiao Miaoyin tilted her head: "How about this, you stay with me tonight, and then I won't follow you. On your wedding day, I will come and give you a wedding gift."

But if you don't agree to spend time with me tonight, I'll go crazy!

"Woman, don't threaten me."

Ye Qiu reached out and pinched Xiao Miaoyin's chin.

"You bad guy, you hurt her."

Xiao Miaoyin blinked her big eyes, captivating and mesmerizing.

For a moment, Ye Qiu felt as if his soul was about to be stolen away.
