The invincible female ghost is a bit love-struck.

Chapter 110 Ahh ...

First of all, Lu Yuan is not a narcissist.

However, Lu Yuan is neither foolish nor stupid, nor is he the kind of person who pretends to be ignorant when he knows the truth.

Lu Yuan could sense that Shen Shulan probably had a little bit of affection for him.

Lu Yuan is a straightforward and honest person; he doesn't play dirty tricks.

Even though he's already married and has a wife, he still pretends to be single in public to deceive other girls.

Lu Yuan couldn't do something like that!

So, say it quickly, so as not to delay them.

Others genuinely believed he was still unmarried and got caught up in the affair, only to later discover he already had two wives.

Isn't this just wasting people's time?

If Lu Yuan did that, wouldn't he be just like those prostitutes on Earth who are often criticized for stringing men along?

You can't just criticize others while doing despicable things yourself, can you?

Lu Yuan isn't some kind of Third Young Master!

If Lu Yuan was wrong about this matter, then Shen Shulan actually had no good feelings towards Lu Yuan at all.

These actions are merely out of respect for Lu Yuan, so it would be even more acceptable for Lu Yuan to directly introduce his wife.

After all, what Lu Yuan said yesterday wasn't just to fool Aunt Qiao'er and Aunt Qin.

Everyone was willing, and Lu Yuan genuinely cared for his two beautiful aunts.

The two beautiful aunts genuinely wanted to marry Lu Yuan.

Apart from their age, they are just like any other ordinary couple in the world, not engaging in any underhanded or illicit activities.

Since she is a proper daughter-in-law, she should have the status and dignity befitting a daughter-in-law.

Is it illegal for a woman to be more than ten years older than a man when they get married?

People might say sarcastic things behind your back, but if you care so much about what others say, you won't get anything done.

Anyway, Lu Yuan was completely open and honest with his two beautiful aunts, and the two beautiful aunts were the same way with Lu Yuan.

Therefore, Lu Yuan wanted to introduce his two wives to his friend Shen Shulan so that they could get to know each other properly.

Lu Yuan felt that he had done nothing wrong.

After Lu Yuan finished his introduction, Aunt Qiao'er and Aunt Qin were completely surprised that he would be so open and straightforward. The tenderness and promises of yesterday still echoed in their ears, and although they believed him, there was always a veil separating them.

Only now was this veil finally lifted by Lu Yuan himself, with great force.

The sunlight shone in without reservation.

In an instant, the two beautiful mature women were filled with immense joy and happiness.

This feeling is sweeter and happier than eating honey.

Especially Zhao Qiao'er, who was singled out by Lu Yuan.

She was practically melting.

Especially that affectionate yet domineering "Qiao'er" without the "Auntie" part.

The usually arrogant and condescending president of the top chamber of commerce outside the Great Wall.

At this moment, she was like a young girl experiencing love for the first time, not even knowing where to put her hands and feet.

Her captivating eyes were brimming with joy, and she gazed at Lu Yuan with an intense, unwavering love.

"Zhao Qiao'er greets the Taoist priest."

Her voice was soft and delicate, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.

Lu Yuan looked at her silly expression and raised an eyebrow with amusement.

"You just saw them? Aren't you going to thank them?"

Zhao Qiao'er then seemed to wake from a dream, and quickly turned to Shen Shulan, two charming blushes appearing on her face, her voice sweet and soft:

"I am very grateful to Wuqing Temple for what happened before, and even more grateful to Daoist Shulan for his help."

"Happy New Year, Master Shulan!"

At this moment, Shen Shulan froze completely.

Her mind went blank.

Do not……

No?

Uncle-Master Lu Yuan... got married?

Moreover... wasn't this Zhao Qiao'er her aunt before?

What on earth is going on?!

However, something even more mind-numbing happened next.

Lu Yuan turned his head and looked at Aunt Qin behind him, who had been coaxing him with seductive eyes since earlier.

Of course he knew what this vixen, Aunt Qin, wanted.

Lu Yuan grabbed her soft little hand and pulled her out from behind him, then smiled at Shen Shulan:

"Let me introduce you, this is my wife."

Then, he looked down at the person in his arms, his smile deepening.

"Come here, Mikoto."

"Say hello to the Taoist priest."

Aunt Qin, who is usually aloof and even a bit domineering in front of outsiders, was now acting like a gentle and obedient young wife. She nestled beside Lu Yuan, both shy and proud, her voice sweet and soft.

"Greetings, Daoist Shulan!"

"Happy New Year, Master Shulan!"

Shen Shulan: "????"

She felt like her brain was completely overwhelmed.

No...no?!

These two... have both become my martial uncle's wives?!

ha? ? ?

Shen Shulan stared blankly at Lu Yuan, her voice trembling as she stammered:

"Before that, I...I had never heard of my martial uncle..."

After all, my uncle... will only be twenty years old after the New Year.

And these two... no matter how you look at it, they're both around thirty years old.

How could this be...?

Amid Shen Shulan's bewildered gaze, Lu Yuan smiled exceptionally brightly.

"They just got married yesterday."

"Well, the matter of raising the evil spirits was too urgent, so I didn't have time and just had a cup of wedding wine first."

"After we're done with this busy period, we'll hold a proper banquet."

At this point, Lu Yuan looked sincerely at Shen Shulan and extended an invitation:

"I'll definitely invite Senior Sister Shulan to my wedding banquet."

Shen Shulan blinked in confusion.

Yesterday?

So... last night, when she heard her father and Crane Celestial Venerable talking about Martial Uncle Lu Yuan, it turned out that Martial Uncle himself... had already entered the bridal chamber? She remained silent, unsure how to react.

Lu Yuan didn't seem to care; instead, he asked her with some curiosity:

"Speaking of which, Senior Sister Shulan, weren't you busy with the matter of the Nurturing Fiend Land? How come you still have time to come to Fengtian City?"

You know, if it weren't for that bastard Tan Jiji stabbing him in the back and needing to recuperate, Lu Yuan himself was planning to head to the next place to nurture evil spirits on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Shen Shulan's task was much more demanding than his.

On that map of nurturing evil spirits, most of the scattered and remote points belonged to her.

It's already the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, how come she's here?

Getting down to business, Shen Shulan snapped out of her shock and quickly said:

"There are only a few left, no rush."

"Besides wishing my martial uncle a Happy New Year, I also wanted to see if I could help him with some of the tasks related to the nurturing grounds around Fengtian City." "Last night, I heard from Crane Patrol Celestial Venerable that you still have seven or eight unresolved matters to deal with, martial uncle?"

"I want to help my martial uncle clear away the evil-nurturing ground. Please don't misunderstand, my martial uncle. I don't want to take credit for your work."

"I just wanted to help my martial uncle; all the credit should go to him."

"After the Heavenly Venerable Ceremony, Shulan's name will never appear in my Uncle's Book of Merits."

Lu Yuan: "????"

He completely ignored the rest of the sentence, only being stunned by the first one.

What do you mean... only a few are left?

ha? ?

Lu Yuan asked himself if he hadn't slacked off for a single day during this time, apart from recuperating from his injuries.

How come when it came to Shen Shulan, there were only a few left?

Shen Shulan noticed his incredulous expression and quickly explained:

"The locations that my senior uncle gave me that were too remote, I assigned to other fellow disciples in the temple to handle."

"I myself traveled along the railway line outside the Great Wall."

"That way, after clearing one place, we can take the train directly to the next location, and we can even meditate and rest along the way, which is more efficient." Hearing this, Lu Yuan fell silent.

He sighed sincerely.

hiss

Wuqing Temple truly lives up to its reputation as the number one sect outside the Great Wall!

This title of "Number One in the World" is truly well-deserved!

Moreover, this matter is definitely not as easy and simple as Shen Shulan makes it out to be.

The trains outside the Great Wall are not high-speed trains on Earth, so they can't be guaranteed to be on time.

Moreover, they had to coordinate perfectly with Shen Shulan's actions, finishing at one breeding ground and immediately heading to the next.

Lu Yuan could almost conclude that the entire railway system outside the pass had probably been secretly manipulated by Wuqing Temple.

It's even possible that a locomotive was specially assigned to Shen Shulan, so he could leave as soon as he finished his mission, without stopping along the way.

Furthermore, for every place where evil spirits are nurtured, someone will definitely scout it out in advance, just like the old man helped him back then.

To ensure absolute safety, there must be no dangerous creature hidden that is beyond our ability to handle.

Based on the intelligence gathered from the reconnaissance site, all the necessary items for the ritual were prepared in advance for Shen Shulan.

As mentioned before, it's like cooking. Stir-frying doesn't take much time, but preparing the ingredients is what really takes time. Just preparing the necessary items for Shen Shulan in advance can save a lot of time.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense, after all, this is a contest for the Heavenly Venerable.

It's perfectly normal for Wuqing Temple to mobilize the entire temple's resources to help Shen Shulan.

There's not much to say about that. Lu Yuan himself has also started to leverage Aunt Qiao'er's business association to build up his reputation for the future.

This is all fair.

only……

Lu Yuan looked at Shen Shulan with a hint of pure curiosity in his eyes.

"Will you help me?"

Shen Shulan gently touched her snow-white chin, and her expression on her exquisitely beautiful face was more serious than ever before.

"I heard from Crane-Patrol Celestial Venerable that my uncle also aspires to the title of Celestial Venerable."

"But my uncle still has seven or eight places where evil spirits have not been cleared. Even if he clears one every three days, it will still take more than half a month."

"The Luo Tian Grand Ceremony is about to conclude, followed by a fifteen-day period for public commentary on the Heavenly Venerable Ceremony."

"Once the public opinion poll is over, the final selection will take place."

"The reputation over these fifteen days is crucial. If my master returns too late, many procedures will become extremely rushed."

At this point, Shen Shulan secretly glanced at the two stunningly beautiful and mature women next to Lu Yuan.

Her gaze paused slightly, then she mustered her courage and looked directly at Lu Yuan.

"So... Shulan wants to lend a hand to her martial uncle as a way of returning the favor."

"If I go with you, I will definitely help my martial uncle finish it a few days faster."

That's undeniable.

If a Celestial Master could join Lu Yuan's team of three, their speed would definitely be much faster.

Shen Shulan's gratitude surprised Lu Yuan.

only……

Lu Yuan was still somewhat puzzled and asked:

"Don't you still have a few places left to deal with?"

"Help me first, what about you?"

Shen Shulan shook her head firmly.

"My few places aren't in a rush."

"I'll help my uncle succeed first, then I can go on my own."

"The temple will take care of the procedures for the Heavenly Venerable Ceremony. I don't need to set aside time for those mundane matters. Uncle-Master, you don't need to worry about me." Looking at Shen Shulan's usually aloof face, now filled with sincerity, Lu Yuan was momentarily at a loss for words.

He has never been one to put on airs.

Shen Shulan's joining was a tremendous boon for him.

Moreover, her analysis was indeed reasonable; he needed to allow enough time to return to Fengtian City.

After a moment's thought, Lu Yuan stopped being coy and bowed deeply to Shen Shulan.

"Thank you very much, Senior Sister Shulan. I, Lu Yuan, will remember this kindness and repay it in the future."

Seeing Lu Yuan agree, a hint of joy, which she herself was unaware of, rippled in Shen Shulan's clear eyes.

Just as she was about to speak, a rapid and hoarse shout suddenly came from afar, accompanied by heavy breathing.

"Junior brother!! Junior brother!!!"

"Wait, wait, wait!!!"

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a figure rushing towards them from the street corner, stumbling and scrambling.

Upon closer inspection, wow!

Isn't that Song Yan?

Lu Yuan paused for a moment, then took two steps forward to meet him.

As soon as Song Yan rushed over, he grabbed Lu Yuan's arm tightly and shouted breathlessly:

"Is Junior Brother about to set off for the Nourishing Fiend Land?"

"Don't go! Don't go!!"

"My master! He asked me to tell you something of utmost importance!!"

"A method that can truly make your master chosen as a Celestial Venerable!!"

Lu Yuan: "???"

He looked at Song Yan with a face full of questions.

Can the method of the Heavenly Venerable really be chosen?

Song Yan ignored everything and dragged Lu Yuan toward the Zhao residence, shouting:

"Quick, go inside and talk, give me... give me some saliva!"

Soon, Song Yan led Lu Yuan back to the front gate of the Zhao family.

His gaze swept over the three women before settling on Shen Shulan.

Song Yan was stunned on the spot.

He looked at Lu Yuan, then at Shen Shulan, and opened his mouth as if to speak.

"Eh...Eh??"

Last night, Crane Patrol Celestial Venerable had a private conversation with Shen Jizhou. Shen Shulan was present, and Song Yan was naturally also present.

The two must have met yesterday.

Of course, not to mention yesterday, as a disciple of Crane Patrol Celestial Venerable, Song Yan must have met Shen Shulan before.

Song Yan was a little confused. How did Shen Shulan end up here?

Lu Yuan, standing to the side, immediately said:

"I've known Senior Sister Shulan for a long time."

Song Yan: "????"

ha? ?

My junior brother is quite capable!

Even Shen Shulan knows them, yet they're meeting in such a private place?

That means they have a pretty good relationship!

Shen Shulan bowed slightly to Song Yan, her expression returning to its usual aloofness, and spoke calmly.

"We meet again, Uncle-Master."

Song Yan was startled and quickly waved his hand.

"No, no, I'm flattered... Junior Sister Shulan is here too..."

In front of Shen Shulan, Song Yan also dared not call himself a senior uncle, and could only refer to himself as a senior brother.

Shen Shulan nodded slightly, her tone serious.

"Yes, I have a very good relationship with my Uncle-Master Lu Yuan, and I have come today to offer my New Year's greetings."

Shen Shulan did not mention helping Lu Yuan eliminate the evil spirit land.

This isn't something to hide.

However, Shen Shulan was too lazy to say anything more; there was really no need for Song Yan to know this.

Song Yan was completely bewildered upon hearing this.

Is it possible that Shen Shulan, this aloof and unattainable beauty, has good relationships with disciples outside of Wuqing Temple?

They're actually quite close?

Song Yan stared at Lu Yuan with a bewildered expression.

You're pretty capable, kid!

Lu Yuan didn't mince words, and he didn't know what method Song Yan was talking about.

Lu Yuan was too lazy to dawdle; he was in a hurry to leave.

He grabbed Song Yan by the back of his hand and, while walking towards the main house in the front courtyard of the Zhao residence, shouted loudly without turning his head:

"Qiao'er, have someone bring a pot of tea."

Behind him, Zhao Qiao'er's sickeningly sweet voice immediately rang out.

"Okay~"

Song Yan: "??????"

ha? ?

Song Yan turned around abruptly and was stunned by Zhao Qiao'er's shy, timid, and sweet appearance.

Before this, he had seen the female president of the No. 1 Chamber of Commerce outside the Great Wall at many important occasions.

Every time I met him, the president of the Bailu Chamber of Commerce, the number one chamber of commerce outside the Great Wall, always acted arrogantly and condescendingly.

This……

This kid has this timid, submissive tone...

What does that mean?

Before Song Yan could process what was happening, Lu Yuan seemed to remember something, turned around and looked at him with a grin.

"Oh right, senior brother, I forgot to tell you."

Yesterday, I got married.

"This is my wife."

Song Yan: "??????"

What is that??

Didn't we come back together yesterday?

Where did you get married?

With...with whom?

Song Yan's brain completely shut down. Before he could reboot, Lu Yuan pointed to Zhao Qiao'er behind him and introduced her:

"This is my senior brother, Song Yan."

Zhao Qiao'er was taken aback upon hearing this, and then an extremely obedient expression appeared on her beautiful face as she gave Song Yan a graceful curtsy.

"Greetings, Senior Brother~"

Happy New Year, senior brother!

Song Yan: "??????"

you! ! !

Kid!

That's fucking amazing!!!

This……

He actually married Zhao Qiao'er, the female president of the White Deer Chamber of Commerce?!

However, this is just the beginning.

Lu Yuan then pointed to the other side, to Aunt Qin, who had a seductive figure and alluring eyes.

"This one too."

"We got married yesterday."

Now, Lu Yuan doesn't need to introduce it anymore.

Aunt Qin moved gracefully, smiled at the dumbfounded Song Yan, and her voice was soothing and captivating.

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

Happy Chinese New Year.

Song Yan: "??????"

Ah ah ah ah ah! ! !

Holy crap!!!

What the hell did you do last night?!

Holy crap!!!

How the hell did they suddenly get married?!

He even married two of them at once!!!

And she's this kind of stunningly beautiful woman, a true stunner who could bring ruin to a country!

In my twenty-plus years of life, the most intimate contact I've ever had is a woman's little hand massaging my shoulders!

You little brat!

What the hell did he do?!

Why should I?!
