Now That You Know I Was Right, Why Are You All Apologizing Now?

"Su Nian, you've conspired with the demon clan, murdered fellow disciples, and the evidence is conclusive. Yet you still refuse to repent! For the sake of your contributions to the sect, we...

Chapter 124 Can't you act like a sect leader?

Upon hearing those two words, Zuo Qiuyan's mouth dropped open wide enough to fit an egg.

The vastness of this place and the rich spiritual energy were already enough to shock her, but the words "World Spirit" only made her feel distant and unfamiliar.

What is a spirit?

A spiritual entity can only be born in a small world with extremely high purity of spiritual energy.

Zuo Qiuyan has traveled throughout the Nine Provinces for many years and has seen weapon spirits, pill spirits, and sword spirits, but she has never seen a realm spirit.

Even a realm spirit can be born and nurtured, it seems that the spiritual energy level of this realm is far beyond Zuo Qiuyan's imagination!

Su Nian crossed her arms and looked at Qian Weiwei with amusement.

A spirit realm?

Wow, that's quite the story.

He spoke fluently and without hesitation.

"It's good that you know you're not human, so was there a problem with what I just said?" Su Nian questioned Qian Weiwei.

"No...no..." Qian Weiwei's voice softened.

"Okay, that's good." Su Nian smiled faintly at Qian Weiwei, her eyes narrowing, concealing a subtle threat. "Just live your life here peacefully. As the true controller of this small world, I will arrange everything in this realm."

"Yes...yes, Master."

Qian Weiwei suddenly regretted it.

Su Nian's eyes looked like he wanted to devour her; he was threatening her not to tarnish his reputation.

“Junior brother…” Xu Xinrou looked at him, her voice tinged with a hint of resentment.

"Have you really brought other women here before...?"

Su Nian hurriedly said, "She's deliberately trying to smear my reputation! Senior Sister, how can you not trust my character?"

Xu Xinrou thought about it carefully and nodded.

"Yes, I believe you."

"That's good..." Su Nian breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't notice that Xu Xinrou lowered her head and pursed her red lips.

The moment she arrived here, no one noticed the hint of inferiority that flashed in her eyes when she looked at Su Nian.

There was already an insurmountable chasm between him and his junior brother Su.

Compared to Junior Brother Su now, I'm probably not even worth a tiny ant.

He was still willing to treat me well, simply because of our relationship.

Zuo Qiuyan stepped forward and said earnestly, "Su Nian! I'm serious! Can I cultivate here? I'm willing to do anything as long as I can stay here!"

Su Nian: "..."

Looking at Zuo Qiuyan's fervent gaze, Su Nian couldn't help but regret bringing them in.

The Second Elder was also somewhat tempted, but she was extremely perceptive and noticed Su Nian's troubled expression. She coughed and quickly pulled Zuo Qiuyan back.

"Sect Master! Please be mindful of your status! You must not do such a reckless thing!"

"Status? I am the sect leader, he is the branch leader. We are of equal status. Is it shameful for me to beg him like this?" Zuo Qiuyan answered matter-of-factly.

The Second Elder had a bit of a headache.

Zuo Qiuyan longed to become an immortal, but her own talent was insufficient. If there was anything that could tempt her, it would be the word "immortal".

"No, it's just... Master Su is, after all, a man. What kind of behavior is this, pulling and tugging at him like this? Besides, Xinrou is still here..." the Second Elder subtly reminded him.

Although she had never been in a relationship, the Second Elder was not stupid. How could she not see that Su Nian and Xu Xinrou had developed feelings for each other?

This was the first time that an elder had subtly mentioned her feelings, and Xu Xinrou blushed and lowered her head slightly.

Zuo Qiuyan, who had traveled the Nine Provinces for many years, was not stupid. She was a person with feudalistic ideas, and after the Second Elder reminded her, she naturally understood that Xu Xinrou and Su Nian were a couple.

She lowered her head, pinched her chin, and muttered to herself, "You're right. Putting aside our identities, the differences between men and women are also a problem..."

"I'm glad you understand..." The Second Elder breathed a sigh of relief.

Zuo Qiuyan looked at Xu Xinrou and Su Nian, "Are you two engaged?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xinrou lowered her head and looked away, her slender fingers nervously gripping the hem of her clothes, not daring to meet Zuo Qiuyan's gaze.

Su Nian scratched her head, looked at Xu Xinrou whose face was flushed, and grinned, "Not yet. May I ask the Sect Master to grant us a marriage?"

Zuo Qiuyan smiled and looked at Su Nian, "I heard... you're already engaged to Si Qiushan of the Seven Star Sect?"

Su Nian stroked her chin and nodded, "That's true."

Zuo Qiuyan said calmly, "Then who do you plan to make the principal wife?"

Xu Xinrou held her breath.

Su Nian didn't expect Zuo Qiuyan to be so direct, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that this was always the case with the sect leader's personality, so she replied, "If I could marry two wives at the same time, then there would be no distinction between main wife and concubine in my eyes. They are both the most important people in my heart."

Xu Xinrou was slightly unhappy with the answer and gave a soft hum.

"Oh, I see." Zuo Qiuyan nodded, then said in a serious tone, "Su Nian, do you know that I, the sect leader, have always been a traditional person?"

Su Nian hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I've heard a little about it."

"So, would you accept taking another concubine?"

Su Nian was stunned.

Not only Su Nian, but also the Second Elder and Xu Xinrou were stunned.

Qian Weiwei raised her eyebrows slightly, vaguely sensing that Zuo Qiuyan had become a threat.

"Taking a concubine?" He was completely baffled.

“Yes!” Zuo Qiuyan said very seriously, “You’re already planning to marry two wives, so taking a concubine would be acceptable, right? Don’t worry, I won’t bother you. I just need to live here. If I have no hope of ascending to immortality in this life, I can still pin my hopes on my future children. Aren’t you a reincarnated true immortal? The child I have with you will at least have the bloodline of a half-immortal, right? Speaking of which… when I was traveling through the Nine Provinces, I once saved the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect and learned two dual cultivation techniques from her. I thought I would never have the chance to use them in this life, but I didn’t expect to today…”
