Tan Xiu frowned and was silent for several seconds before he slowly asked, "Who's your ancestor?"
Xue Yu gently raised her hand and lifted the veil covering her face. Her devastatingly beautiful face appeared before Tan Xiu's eyes as she chuckled and said, "My ancestor is a blind woman who was born in the Miao Region just like me. She knows about the past and present and can even divine the path of life. "
Tan Xiu stared blankly and asked in astonishment, "Doesn't this blind woman have no children and no relatives?"
"The reason why we call her ancestor is not because we're related by blood." Xue Yu shook her head and smilingly said. "Our ancestor is destined to bring bad luck to her husband and relatives, so she naturally has no children. But she's the guardian deity of our Miao Region and the oldest senior in our tribe. That's why all the tribes in the Miao Region address her as ancestor. "
Tan Xiu suddenly understood. He raised his hand to touch his nose and helplessly said, "Your ancestor listens to my orders, so shouldn't you also listen to mine?"
A crafty glint flashed in Xue Yu's eyes as she smilingly said, "Except for the ancestral rule that cannot be changed, I'll listen to everything else. There's an old saying in our Miao Region that if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. You'll be my husband from now on, and I'll do whatever you want me to do. "
"Stop!"
Tan Xiu felt like he was stuck by a piece of gummy candy and quickly said, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. The rules passed down by the ancestors need to be broken by the later generations. Miss Xue, I really have a girlfriend, and we have a very good relationship. I don't think you want to be a third party with your qualifications, right? That's why I think Chu Yuan is the most suitable for you. "
"Chu Yuan is not suitable for me." Xue Yu shook her head.
Having said that, she slowly took out a small porcelain bottle and poured out a black pill from it. Then, she said again, "According to our tribe's rules, I only have two choices if you don't want to accept me. First, I can kill you; second, I can commit suicide. Ever since I learned your identity, I've realized that I can't kill you. So, there's only one option left for me now — suicide. "
Tan Xiu frowned and said, "If you want to die, then commit suicide!"
Xue Yu's eyes darkened. Her slender fingers pinched the black pill, and she directly put it into her mouth. At that moment, she slowly closed her eyes.
Tan Xiu was dumbfounded. He'd already identified the effect of the black pill through its smell, and it was absolutely a highly toxic medicine. Not to mention an ordinary person, even a cultivator with a low cultivation would die upon consuming it.
"Bang … …"
Tan Xiu's palm patted Xue Yu's chest. Although the softness made him feel very elastic, he did not have the slightest evil thought at all. As the Chaotic Force entered Xue Yu's body, it controlled the black pill that was about to melt in just half a second. The moment he pinched Xue Yu's cheek, the black pill flew out of her mouth.
"Stupid."
Tan Xiu scolded with a cold face.
Xue Yu opened her eyes again, but they were still as lifeless as before. She shook her head and said, "You can save me once, but you can't save me forever. Only death awaits me unless you promise to marry me. "
Tan Xiu fell into silence. After releasing Xue Yu's cheek, he thought for a few minutes and then slowly said, "Since I can't make you change your clan's rules, then Old Blind should be able to do it, right? You call her Ancestor, so you should listen to her words. "
"Before I came here, Ancestor personally told me that I need a benefactor's help in the future to live normally," said Xue Yu. "The benefactor she mentioned is you. Also, Ancestor asked me to tell you that she won't appear again even if you burn three sticks of incense and shout her name. If you want to see her again, you can only wait until next June at the Everlasting Feast Hall in Shanghai. "
"This Old Blind!"
Tan Xiu was exasperated. He didn't expect that Old Blind had already predicted that he would look for her and unexpectedly blocked his path ahead of time. Suddenly, his expression moved and he lightly said, "I already have a girlfriend. It's impossible for me to abandon her and marry you. Since you're crying and shouting for me to accept you, then it's not impossible. You'll be my lover from now on! Or should I say, a mistress. "
Xue Yu stared blankly for a moment. An angry and ashamed expression flashed in her eyes. She was silent for a long while before she nodded with an ugly expression and said, "Then I'll be your lover. We don't have a legally recognized marriage certificate between us, but you must find some time to go back to the Miao Region with me and hold a marriage ceremony with me."
"You want me to be a mistress or a mistress?" Tan Xiu angrily said, "You agree to be a mistress? Is your brain fried or something? "
"It's better to live than to die," said Xue Yu honestly. "I'm still young and I don't want to die. Besides, it's not like polygamy and polygamous tribes don't exist in our Miao Region. In ancient times, there was also the rule of having three wives and four concubines, which I can accept. "
"Fuck!"
Tan Xiu was truly speechless and completely defeated by Xue Yu's reasoning.
He had seen the problem of having three wives and four concubines many times. Back in the Immortal World, countless Immortal World powerhouses had countless Immortal Companions and Immortal Concubines. Even for ordinary people in those empires, the Emperors had three palaces and six courtyards and 72 concubines, while countless princes and nobles had groups of wives and concubines. Men in some countries even used the number of women they had as proof of their ability.
But!
This was Earth!
Furthermore, this was the new era of the 21st century. How could such a feudal mentality be so terrible that even a woman like Xue Yu couldn't avoid it?
After the plane took off, Tan Xiu turned his head to look at Xue Yu and said, "I don't care what you think. But since you want to be my lover, then don't affect my normal life. I still want to live the life of an ordinary person, so our relationship can't be known by others. I'll give you a house when we arrive in Shanghai, and you can live there later. You can't look for me unless I take the initiative to look for you. Of course, if you think it through and want to leave me, you can leave me directly. You don't even need to call me. "
"No problem." Xue Yu nodded.
Tang Xiu still wanted to earnestly persuade her, but when he saw her cold expression, he immediately lost the mood to do so. He didn't want to talk to her, so he directly closed his eyes and slept.
At the Shanghai Airport.
When Tan Xiu came out of the airport with Mo Awu and Xue Yu, Chi Nan had already received a call from Mo Awu and had been waiting outside for a long time.
"It's been hard on you, Boss."
Chi Nan's face was glowing. She looked several years younger than the first time Tan Xiu saw her. Now, she looked to be in her late twenties at most. Her appearance was even more beautiful than before, and her figure was also more outstanding than before.
"Not bad. It seems that you've gotten a lot of cultivation resources." Tan Xiu nodded and said, "But don't take too many elixirs. You still need to be down-to-earth in your cultivation and lay a solid foundation. Else, it'll be very easy for you to suffer from qi deviation if your cultivation level rises too fast. "
Chi Nan's complexion changed and she immediately replied with a solemn expression, "Understood. This subordinate will keep it in mind."
Tan Xiu didn't speak again and followed Chi Nan to the parking lot outside. He then boarded the car and went straight to the Bluestar Villa Complex. After Chi Nan left, he looked at Xue Yu, who followed him and lightly said, "There are many guest rooms on the first floor. You can choose one to stay in. I'll take you to your new residence tomorrow. "
"I want to live with you," asked Xue Yu.
"The number of times we've met is less than five fingers," said Tan Xiu with a dissatisfied expression. "Do you think it's appropriate to live with me now? Even if we're lovers, there must be a gradual process to slowly cultivate feelings, right? "
"Since we're lovers, desire should be more important than feelings." Xue Yu shook her head. "Also, I won't feel at ease if you don't want my body."
"Nonsense!"
Tan Xiu didn't have the slightest desire, so how could he want Xue Yu's body now? He reprimanded her in a low voice and turned to walk to the second floor. As for Mo Awu, although it was his first time here, he seemed to be familiar with the place and quickly found a room.
On the second floor.
When Tan Xiu walked into his bedroom and saw Xue Yu following him, he was at a loss whether he had to cry or laugh. "Hey, Jade Beauty, you don't have to be so persistent, do you? Can't you just give me a break? A few days? Just a few days. You women have a few days of discomfort every month, but we men also need to take a break! You should've heard it from your swindling ancestor, right? This trip to Kanas is absolutely a narrow escape from death. It's not easy for me to recuperate and come back. Can't you just let me take a break? "
"This … alright!"
Xue Yu hesitated for a moment before she took a few steps back and left the room. Then, she directly pushed the opposite door and went inside.
Bam …
The door was closed and Tan Xiu walked to the bed with a helpless expression. He directly lay down on it and cursed inwardly, "What a dog-skin plaster living ancestor."
"It seems like I'm affected by the Heavenly Dao here? Could it be that I was hurt by love in the Immortal World, so I came back to Earth to compensate me? Otherwise, there shouldn't be so many love tribulations! "
Tan Xiu recalled the scene when he was in the Immortal World. For thousands of years, apart from Xue Qingcheng, he had never found any other woman who liked him. Logically speaking, he had an illustrious status in the Immortal World with a terrifying cultivation base. Didn't they say that beauties loved heroes? Why didn't he do so at that time?
He was not sure.
In fact, he did not consider this aspect when he was in the Immortal World, especially after he had Xue Qingcheng. His whole heart was on Xue Qingcheng, and other women simply could not enter his eyes. How could he know that when he was in the Immortal World, there were more than hundreds of millions of women who adored him?
But when he returned to Earth, because of his mother, he had to consider the relationship between men and women. He had to consider marrying a wife and having children. Otherwise, he was afraid that his mother would be angry and sad.
On this night.
Tang Xiu didn't cultivate. Even though his injuries had healed, he was still quite tired after running around and tossing around all day long. He took a simple bath and changed into clean clothes. Just as he was about to go to bed, someone knocked on the door again, and Xue Yu's sweet voice came from outside the door.
"Tan Xiu, I need a change of clothes."
