Chapter 40: Big Brother’s Excellent Family “Big Brother,…
"Big Brother, you've already repaid their kindness in raising you over the years. You should be tougher..."
Lie Wushuang interrupted, "If it weren't for them, I would have died in the snow."
Nangong Liuchu shook his head silently, how could he be so straightforward!
Lie Wushuang continued, "When I left last time, Junior Brother Nangong was still at the Mahayana stage. Now he's already reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage. Yet, he's achieved such great things in just a few decades. I haven't even congratulated him yet."
Nangong Liuchu smiled and said, "It's far worse than that of the eldest brother."
…
Bei Liyuan followed Li Youyang into the bedroom. After he closed the door, Li Youyang recalled some unpleasant memories. He frowned and asked, "Why did you follow me in here instead of going back to your room?"
Bei Liyuan said hurriedly: "I am used to following Master. I will leave now."
However, when he was about to leave the room, he heard a noise. He turned around and saw Li Youyang falling down. He was shocked and instantly dodged and picked him up and gently placed him on the bed.
Then he probed into the spiritual breath and felt relieved. It must be because he had consumed too much energy before and fell asleep due to exhaustion. This body was too weak and needed to be properly taken care of by the master.
After thinking about it, he moved his fingertips lightly, and a spirit-gathering healing formation enveloped Li Youyang. Then he stayed quietly by his side until almost noon when he left for the kitchen.
When the smoke from the cooking stove rose, Lie Wushuang thought there was a fire, so he hurried to the kitchen. He was slightly startled by what he saw. Since he was hired by Cheng Yanjun, he had never seen anyone cook by himself.
Bei Liyuan has a cold personality and is always unwilling to pay attention to people he is not familiar with. Especially when Lie Wushuang looked at Li Youyang with a somewhat unfriendly look when they first met, he was even more lazy to pay attention to him. He just pretended not to see this person and cooked by himself.
Lie Wushuang had originally misunderstood the relationship between Bei Liyuan and Li Youyang. He had long disliked Bei Liyuan and was unwilling to talk to him. After confirming that there was no accident, he turned around and left.
When he came out of the kitchen, he happened to meet Nangong Liuchu, who explained: "Junior brother has to personally cook meals for Master every day, so you'll be fine once you get used to it."
Lie Wushuang hummed, "He really cares about Cheng Yanjun."
Nangong Liuchu touched his nose. Once you figured out Master's identity, you'd probably be even more concerned than he was. He said, "Let's not talk about that. How long do you plan to stay this time?"
Lie Wushuang: "At least three to five days, at most half a month."
"Brother Lie, the Sect Master asks you to go to the main hall."
Lie Wushuang rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
Nangong Liuchu looked at the disciple: "Are they here?"
The disciple also looked tired. Just as he was about to answer, Levin was dragged to Chengyan Hall by his collar.
"Wushuang, Wushuang, please save daddy!"
Listening to the wailing, Lie Wushuang sighed: "How much do you owe this time?"
Le Wencai hurriedly said: "Three...three million spirit stones."
"you!"
Lie Wushuang clenched his fists in anger.
Nangong Liuchu said coldly: "Lie Wencai, you are really capable. Three million spirit stones are enough for an ordinary family to spend for a hundred years."
The man holding Lie Wencai looked at Lie Wushuang and asked politely, "When will Master Lie repay the money for him?"
Lie Wushuang's eyes darkened: "Three million is not a small amount, I can't come up with that much at once..."
The man kicked Levin hard and said, "Didn't you say he would pay it back for you today?!"
Levin hurriedly cried and begged: "Wushuang, Wushuang, please save Dad, otherwise Dad will be beaten to death here today!"
Lie Wushuang clenched his fist. In just thirty years, excluding the expenses for cultivation, he had only saved up 500,000 spirit stones. Where could he find so many spirit stones at the moment?
Levin wailed, "Wushuang! Wushuang! Please save me. I promise I will never gamble again!"
Lie Wushuang clenched his fists tightly, but finally let go and turned to walk towards Li Youyang's bedroom.
Nangong Liuchu was a little surprised when he saw Lie Wushuang leave. Did his senior brother finally get it? He didn't plan to add to this bottomless pit anymore.
…
In the room, Li Youyang was awakened by the noise and rubbed his eyebrows unhappily.
At this time, Lie Wushuang suddenly pushed the door open and came in. Li Youyang frowned and looked at Lie Wushuang with cold eyes.
Lie Wushuang knelt down: "I need three million spirit stones."
Li Youyang: ...
The next moment, Lie Wushuang began to undress.
Li Youyang: ???
…
Outside, Nangong Liuchu saw Lie Wushuang walk directly into Li Youyang's bedroom, and his face tightened: "Oh no!"
He hurriedly dodged over and stopped Lie Wushuang just as he was about to take off his inner clothes: "Big Brother, put your clothes on."
"Big Brother, put on your clothes. It's only three million spirit stones. It's not worth it."
Nangong Liuchu put the clothes back on Lie Wushuang while persuading him.
Li Youyang was stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses: "What do you mean by three million spirit stones?"
Nangong Liuchu then explained what had happened outside one by one, and told Li Youyang about the ridiculous things that Lie Wushuang's family had done in the past.
Li Youyang's eyes darkened. Now he finally understood why someone like Lie Wushuang would be employed by Chengyan Jun. The outside world had said that Lie Wushuang was decisive, but now it seemed that was not entirely true. If this matter was not resolved, Lie Wushuang would be entangled by this family to death! He was afraid that his Chengyan Palace would have no peace in the future.
How about ending his master-disciple relationship with Lie Wushuang? Well... even if he did, I'm afraid his family would come and disturb his peace! Besides, he had always admired this young man, Lie Wushuang. Well, let's just mind our own business.
"Let's go outside together."
Nangong Liuchu hurriedly said respectfully, "Master has just returned and should rest well. This disciple can handle this matter..."
"Let's go."
Nangong Liuchu hummed.
Lie Wushuang was slightly stunned. Firstly, Nangong Liuchu was too respectful to Cheng Yanjun, as if he really regarded him as his master. Secondly, Cheng Yanjun's temperament was very different from before, and even made him feel a little familiar.
When they got outside, Li Youyang walked up to the two of them and said, "Three million spirit stones is not a small amount. I can't just help Lie Wushuang with this amount of spirit stones."
Li Wencai kowtowed: "Please save my life, Elder Li. No matter what conditions you offer, even if you want him to serve you for one night, I will ask him to agree."
Li Youyang said in a deep voice, "Three million a night, who do you think Lie Wushuang is? How could he be so valuable? With three million, I can find anything I want."
"So what conditions do you want?"
Li Youyang said coldly, "I want him to be my concubine! If you can convince him, I'll pay the three million spirit stones."
Nangong Liuchu:!
Lie Wushuang's face turned ashen and he clenched his fists tightly.
Li Youyang added, "I'll only give you half a quarter of an hour to think about it."
Le Wencai hurriedly crawled to Lie Wushuang's side, first crying and begging, then scolding him, and finally threatening him with favors, and finally Lie Wushuang finally gave in.
Li Youyang took out three million spirit stones and gave them to Lie Wencai. "Tomorrow, the Yunshan Sect will host a banquet for all cultivators to attend my concubine ceremony. Nangong Liuchu, you and Li Yuan will go send out the invitations together. Also, find two sets of clothes, one pink and one red."
Nangong Liuchu was stunned for a moment: "Master, are you serious?"
Li Youyang looked over with cold eyes, and Nangong Liuchu hurriedly bowed and retreated.
In the evening, Nangong Liuchu finally sent out the last invitation: "Junior brother, I'm a little confused. Could it be that Master really wants to take you as his concubine?"
Bei Liyuan curled his lips: "Master is trying to force Senior Brother Lie to break his bottom line."
Nangong Liu understood that the eldest senior brother took this favor too seriously, and there would be no solution without forcing him.
Bei Liyuan added, "I know that Senior Brother Nangong and Senior Brother Lie have a close relationship, but no matter what Master does tomorrow, I hope Senior Brother will not interfere."
Nangong Liuchu nodded: "I understand."
…
Early the next morning, many guests had arrived at Yunshan Sect, most of whom wanted to see the fun.
Inside the main hall, Li Youyang and Lie Wushuang had already changed into two sets of pink wedding dresses respectively.
Luo Yinzhu felt embarrassed and did not show up.
Nangong Liuchu saw that most of the guests had arrived and said loudly, "The concubine ceremony has officially begun. The newlyweds are in their places."
"etc!"
Levin and a middle-aged woman dressed in gold and silver squeezed into the main hall.
Li Youyang said coldly: "Lie Wencai, we settled the payment yesterday..."
"Payment and goods?" the middle-aged woman said with a sardonic smile. "We've supported Lie Wushuang for so many years, and you're sending us away for a mere three million spirit stones. Elder Li, are you treating us like a beggar?"
Li Youyang looked over with cold eyes.
The middle-aged woman trembled slightly and continued, "Give us at least another 10 million spirit stones!"
"Ten million, this woman is so bold!"
"Chengyan Jun is rich, but that's not how you spend money! Besides, Chengyan Jun is very stingy, I'm afraid he won't agree."
Li Youyang said coldly, "Ten million spirit stones, okay, I can give it to you, but I have a request."
When Levin heard that the other party was willing to give, he said flatteringly: "We will agree to any request."
Li Youyang took out a talisman and said, "Lie Wushuang is now a semi-saint. Even if I take him as my concubine, I can't do anything if he doesn't want me to. But if I plant this slave talisman, it will be different. Once it's planted, I can make him live or die if I want him to. If you can persuade him to plant this talisman, I will give you another 10 million spirit stones."
The middle-aged woman rushed forward, grabbed the talisman, and walked to Lie Wushuang: "Why don't you do it!"
Lie Wushuang clenched his fists and said, "Mother, you must know that once this spell is planted, no matter how high your cultivation level is, you cannot break away from it. You will be controlled by Cheng Yanjun for the rest of your life, even death is unacceptable."
The middle-aged woman said angrily, "Why are you nagging me? What's wrong with being a servant to Cheng Yanjun? You can enjoy endless wealth and glory. It's not easy for me to raise you up. Are you going to be such an ungrateful ungrateful person?"
"Lie Wushuang! Hurry up and do what Elder Li said. Don't delay us from getting the money."
Lie Wushuang said in a deep voice, "Mother, do you know that after planting this talisman, I will be no different from a puppet. From now on, I can only obey the orders of Cheng Yanjun for the rest of my life. Even if he wants me to be his concubine, I can only accept my fate!"
"So what? I can't die!"
Lie Wushuang laughed: "You won't die, but your life will be worse than death!"
The middle-aged woman had lost her patience: "A good death is worse than a miserable life! Why is life worse than death? You are so delicate! Hurry up, your father and I are still waiting for these ten million spirit stones to turn the tables!"
Lie Wushuang's eyes were as cold as ice.
Li Youyang added: "After wasting so long, I changed my mind. In addition to the middle and lower talismans, I now want Lie Wushuang to sing a little song for me."
Lie Wencai angrily said, "Lie Wushuang! It's all because of you that we wasted time. Otherwise, we would have gotten the money long ago. Why don't you sing a song for Elder Li first?"
