Murong Qiufeng and the others left Yang Feilong's villa after one day, feeling uncomfortable staying any longer.
Yang Feilong did not try to persuade them to stay longer.
After all, Murong Qiufeng and the others were not visiting for leisure but for marriage.
Both Murong Qiufeng and Murong Lei needed to find a partner before they could return.
On the road leaving Lan Hai City.
The gazes of Murong Qiufeng and the other two intertwined, filled with emotion.
"My brother-in-law is good in every way – talented, skilled in medicine, strong, but his popularity with women is just too much! I wonder why he spent so long in the mortal world, I've seen many female cultivators, but I haven't encountered any beautiful and outstanding ones. It turns out they were all taken into his harem. I really want to beat him up, he's too much." Murong Qiufeng said indignantly.
"If you want to beat him up, you'd have to be able to!" Murong Lei chuckled, "Besides, why was Aunt Qingxue there too? Even though we only stayed for a day, I have a feeling there's some secret between Aunt and Feilong that can't be spoken of."
"No way?" Murong Qiufeng's expression drooped, and he glared.
"Zi might be right. I don't even know what to call him anymore – nephew-in-law, or uncle-in-law." Murong Xiang said wistfully.
"???" Murong Qiufeng gnashed his teeth, "I'm going to ask him!"
"Ask him what?" Murong Xiang glanced at Murong Qiufeng, "To expose their relationship, or to break them up?"
"I want to ask him what I should call him! Should I call him brother-in-law, or uncle-in-law!" Murong Qiufeng said fiercely, speaking the most cowardly words with the fiercest tone, "I can't call him brother-in-law today and uncle-in-law tomorrow, can I?"
Murong Lei: "......"
Murong Xiang: "......"
As expected of you, my big-mouthed nephew!
Of course, they didn't go back in the end. It would have been meaningless, and it would have been awkward for everyone. Moreover, Murong Qingxue and Yang Feilong had already maintained a certain distance, clearly not wanting them to know.
The main reason was that the situation was quite tricky.
Both Yang Feilong and Murong Qingxue hadn't figured out how to explain things to the Murong family.
The Murong family clearly didn't mind Murong Qiuyue being Yang Feilong's concubine, but Murong Qingxue also being a concubine seemed inappropriate. If the Murong family found out, it might not be a good thing.
Of course, if they had already seen some clues and suspected something, it was fine. They would find out sooner or later, and this would give them some time to speculate.
Consider it a buffer period for everyone!
......
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, several months had passed.
By this time, people from the spiritual realm were also returning one after another. More than half a year had been a considerable amount of time. A few returned empty-handed, while many could be considered to have returned with full harvests.
Although they might not have found women as outstanding as Yang Feilong's, there were so many cultivation families in the mortal world that they could find someone if they lowered their standards.
Of course, the reason they found partners so easily was also due to the martial arts competition for marriage hosted by the Luo family. Yang Feilong's performance was too astonishing, which made many factions believe that people from the mortal world, as long as they had similar talent, might shine brightly once they arrived in the spiritual realm, as there were too many proofs.
Not to mention the monster Yang Feilong, but others like Lin Qiaoxi, Fang Qingxue, and the siblings Tang Feng and Tang Ya, their cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds after arriving in the spiritual realm, comparable to top geniuses in the spiritual realm.
They didn't know that people like Lin Qiaoxi and Fang Qingxue were already among the best even in the mortal world. Lin Qiaoxi aside, she hadn't cultivated in the mortal world, and Fang Qingxue and the others were already among the cream of the crop of top geniuses in the mortal world.
As these people returned to the spiritual realm, news about Yang Feilong also spread.
"What? Yang Feilong is from the mortal world?"
"No wonder in the latest rankings, Yang Feilong appeared at the top of the Golden Core list, but he's from the mortal world, and he's currently in the mortal world. Is it appropriate to put him on the list?"
"Whether it's appropriate or not, your focus is a bit odd. Aren't you surprised why Yang Feilong's strength is so great? How can someone in the Golden Core realm possess the strength of the late Nascent Soul stage?"
"That's too strange!"
"More than strange, it's incredible! I've never heard of anything like it! Like the Black and White Impermanence, they are only at the perfect Nascent Soul stage, and only by joining forces can they contend against the Soul Transformation stage. This is incomparable to Yang Feilong!"
"The Xiao family was chasing Yang Feilong all over the world before. No wonder there were no reports of the Xiao family successfully capturing Yang Feilong. It turns out Yang Feilong returned to the mortal world!"
"I wonder if the Xiao family dares to chase him into the mortal world!"
"They probably wouldn't dare, because Yang Feilong is backed by at least one cultivator in the Soul Transformation stage, and he's from the mortal world, thriving there. If the Xiao family enters the mortal world, they'll be clueless. And don't underestimate the mortal world; although cultivation is backward, technology is advanced. Even a Soul Transformation stage cultivator might fall if they push too hard!"
With the spread of Yang Feilong's performance at the martial arts competition for marriage, Yang Feilong's fame in the spiritual realm had reached nearly everyone's ears!
For some unknown reason, before a large number of spiritual realm cultivators returned, the human rankings had not updated Yang Feilong's position. It was only after these people returned that Yang Feilong's ranking and situation were made public!
Perhaps the Heavenly Secrets Sect was worried that no one would believe it if it were announced earlier!
Because it was too unbelievable, or perhaps there were other reasons, no one pondered this.
Jiang Yue was very dejected. After several months, he still hadn't broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. The more anxious he became, the less able he was to break through. Now that the first place on the Golden Core list had been taken, he became calm amidst his sadness.
What is this called? Letting go!
Because this matter was already a foregone conclusion.
Half a month after his ranking was replaced, he successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage.
"Is this called gaining something by losing something?" After breaking through, Jiang Yue muttered to himself, vaguely understanding something.
At this moment, he recalled the stage of the martial arts competition for marriage. At that time, he had clearly lost but was unwilling to admit it, thinking he had lost due to carelessness. But what was the result? He didn't get a comeback; instead, he was severely injured and lost all face.
Sometimes, the more you want something, the more likely you are to lose it.
"I've been too fixated on certain things over the years." Jiang Yue realized something in his heart.
This happened after Jiang Yue's incident, pushing back to the time when a large number of cultivators returned to the spiritual realm.
"What? Qiuyue and Qingxue are both in the spiritual realm? With Feilong?" The Murong family had already known Yang Feilong's strength and were discussing it with shock. When they learned that Murong Qiuyue and Murong Qingxue were in the mortal world, the Murong family was very confused.
The worries that the Murong family head had in his heart at that time were now put to rest.
"Hmm, being with Yang Feilong, then there's nothing to worry about!" The Murong family head said with a gratified old face.
He had thought highly of Yang Feilong back then because of his talent. However, he hadn't expected Yang Feilong to realize his talent so quickly, which was truly terrifying. How long had he been stuck at the peak of the Golden Core stage, unable to break through, while Yang Feilong, in just a few years, went from entering the early stages of Foundation Establishment to the late stage of Golden Core, and most exaggeratedly, his combat power could rival the late Nascent Soul stage!
This investment was worth it!
