Cloud Peak Morning Moon
At the Lin family manor in Nanhai Estate, Jingcheng, Huaxia.
Lin Zhan, sporting a pair of panda eyes, lay on the bed and gazed at Zhang Lingxiu beside him, tears welling up as he sighed, "Old Ancestor, is it really right to treat your only disciple like this? If this continues, don't you worry I'll betray the sect."
Zhang Lingxiu turned over and slowly opened her eyes, her large, watery eyes looking at Lin Zhan, "Hehe, Zhanzhan, you're so good to me. I knew you wouldn't be reckless because you care about me... Huh? Why are you entangled by the Dragon Restraining Rope?"
It had been three days since the Huaxia team returned to Huaxia. After cultivating in the spiritual veins of the Dragon Taming Secret Realm and receiving the secret techniques from the Star of Inheritance, the combat prowess and physical enhancements of the team members had reached their peak. The quasi-kings decided to let these children return home to their families, granting them a month-long holiday. They were to report to the Advanced Martial Arts Academy after the New Year.
Members like Ying Xuan, Zhang Haoran, Xiao Hanyi, Bai Zhanlong, and Zhang Lingxiu, who were only a hair's breadth away from advancing to the Gold tier, were preparing for their promotion under the guidance of their elders. The other teammates had returned to their families or sects to hone their skills. Even Zhang Zhen had not returned to the Myriad Races Battlefield to command, choosing instead to protect Zhang Lingxiu during her advancement. Ye Fan had also resigned from his position as Director of the Martial Arts General Bureau and was temporarily taking Zhang Zhen's place to command the battlefield.
The two families had not gathered for a long time. It so happened that Lin Zhan's maternal grandfather, Ouyang Chengshan, had returned. Taking this opportunity, they invited Grandpa Li Zhenshan to hold a family reunion.
The marriage between Lin Zhan and Zhang Lingxiu was as good as settled. The entire family turned a blind eye to these two children. After all, they were young, and some things were beyond parental control. Moreover, in this era, martial artists matured physically and mentally earlier. It was common for them to marry and have children at 18. There was no choice; the war required people, and with the threat of extinction from the races, there was no point in discussing early marriage.
The family reunion of the two families lasted until late. Zhang Zhen and Lin Shanhe, those unreliable fathers, were, as expected, drunk again.
Under Lin Zhan's repeated assurances that he would save the best for their wedding night, that he would marry no one but her in this lifetime, and that they would only hold hands and kiss at most, Zhang Lingxiu, unable to withstand Lin Zhan's persistent pestering, finally entered Lin Zhan's room.
"Lingxiu darling, I will marry no one but you in this lifetime. It's so late, don't bother. Let's just sleep in the same bed. I am a gentleman, I promise I won't do anything reckless. Come, darling, take off your outer clothes first, or you'll catch a cold when you fall asleep." The cunning Lin Zhan began to touch the female comrade.
"Catch a cold? I'm about to advance to Gold, how can I catch a cold? Lin Zhan, I think you have ulterior motives," Zhang Lingxiu said while resisting Lin Zhan.
"Darling, it's not about catching a cold; I want to examine you properly. Look at what happened to Da Zhuang and Ying Xuan after they accepted their inheritance. I'm just afraid my little darling might get hurt. Come, be good, let me examine you," Lin Zhan, having transformed into a werewolf, moved towards Zhang Lingxiu with his fanged mouth dripping blood.
A golden light shot out from Zhang Lingxiu's storage space. The Dragon Restraining Rope, as if alive, looked at Lin Zhan, who was straddling Zhang Lingxiu, and shook its head. *Scoundrel, you deserve to be taught a lesson.* (We don't know where the head of a rope is, anyway.)
"Ah, what the hell is this?" "Ugh, ugh." The Dragon Restraining Rope directly wrapped Lin Zhan into a large zongzi, and also gagged the mouth of the wolf-like Lin.
"Hahaha, Zhanzhan, don't worry. I will definitely listen to you and wait until we get married. Now let's go to sleep." Zhang Lingxiu laughed heartily looking at Lin Zhan's appearance, then took off her outer clothes and covered Lin Zhan with a blanket before closing her eyes.
"Ugh, ugh." Lin Zhan was making his last resistance when Yu Longyan's voice echoed in his mind.
"Kid, why are you whimpering? Do you dare to disregard the Old Ancestor's words? Are you tired of living, or do you think the Old Ancestor wouldn't dare to castrate you? If you dare to cause trouble with this girl again within two years, even if Di Xin tries to stop me, I will castrate you."
"Hurry up and put down what you're doing and come to Di Xin's place immediately. Damn it, the moment I take my eyes off you, you become restless."
Upon hearing Yu Longyan's voice, Lin Zhan no longer dared to harbor any wicked thoughts, leading to the scene at the beginning.
The next day, Zhang Lingxiu got up and put away the Dragon Restraining Rope. After washing up, she walked out of the room with Lin Zhan.
Zhang Zhen, who was having breakfast with Lin Shanhe, saw the two young ones emerge from the same room and immediately felt that his porridge didn't taste as good. *Damn it, I've lost big this time. I guarded day and night, but still couldn't stop this scoundrel.*
He quickly looked at his daughter. As a Lord-level expert, Zhang Zhen could tell that his daughter showed no changes and let out a sigh of relief. Then he thought, *Wait a minute. Would this kid be so kind as to not eat the meat that's already at his mouth?*
He then looked at Lin Zhan with suspicion.
"My dear father-in-law, are you looking at me with that kind of gaze? Let me tell you, although Lin Zhan can be ruthless, I am sincere towards Lingxiu. Until our wedding, even if I share a bed with Sister Lingxiu, I can still be a gentleman," Lin Zhan declared righteously.
"Pfft." Hearing Lin Zhan's words, Lin Shanhe spat out a mouthful of porridge and looked at Lin Zhan as if he were an alien. *The chance of this kid turning over a new leaf is smaller than the chance of all the kings of the Myriad Races committing mass suicide. Doesn't he know his own character and still claims to be a gentleman? The word 'gentleman' barely applies to you. And that's thanks to me.*
"Dad, don't look. Just drink your porridge. When you have time, you need to take me to Old Ancestor Di Xin," Lin Zhan said, seeing the look on Lin Shanhe's face and knowing what his father was thinking. He quickly changed the subject, bringing up his own ancestor. Sudan Novel Network.
Lin Zhan's words made Zhang Zhen and Lin Shanhe freeze. "Zhan'er, why are you looking for the Old Ancestor? Have you found something out?"
"I know everything. In the secret realm, I accepted the inheritance of the ancient Yu Long clan's Old Ancestor Yu Longyan. Furthermore, this Old Ancestor and his two contracted black dragons are still alive. In fact, they are not only alive but also in good health. Judging by their appearance, they must be formidable beings. I directly advanced to Gold as soon as I learned the Yu Long Jue from the Old Ancestor's inheritance. This Old Ancestor told me to find Old Ancestor Di Xin after returning to Huaxia." Lin Zhan directly shifted the responsibility to Yu Longyan.
"Brother, you're saying all these Old Ancestors are showing up. Does this mean something big is about to happen? From what happened this time, it's clear that the Old Ancestors hidden in Huaxia are definitely more than we know. According to Second Uncle, the Angel race has four kings guarding them, but do you think Second Uncle and the others are taking it seriously?" Zhang Zhen also sensed the unusual situation.
