Upon returning by ship to the familiar Hehuan Sect.
Tang Yu and the others hadn't yet had time to disembark.
A ray of light had already flown over to Tang Yu, and after taking human form, it leapt onto him wrapped in an intoxicating fragrance, shouting:
"Little brother!"
Tang Yu smiled and hugged Nangong Ying tightly, inhaling deeply the scent of her body.
After smelling so many women, big sister Nangong still smelled the best.
"Rub, rub."
With a radiant smile, Nangong Ying rubbed her face vigorously against Tang Yu's. Since he went to Yinming Sea, they hadn't seen each other in a long time.
Of course, for a cultivator, that time wasn't really long.
But for her, who tossed and turned without seeing her little brother, it was still quite boring.
"Rub, rub, rub, rub."
Tang Yu's hand, which was hugging her waist, slid down and, upon reaching that proud and firm part, gave a sneaky squeeze.
It was still just as soft.
"Dad, I came to greet you too, lalah!"
Just as Tang Yu was taking advantage of the moment.
In the distance, a small pink fox was flying toward the ship, standing on a golden purple gourd, hind legs in the air and front paws on hips.
"Isn't that so-and-so? Who's your dad, huh? Humans and beasts, there's a difference!"
Tang Yu let out a mocking "Ouch!"
The little fox Tang Mao's face darkened and it sped up, replying grumpily:
"So what if I'm a beast? I've even heard others secretly say Tang Yu is a beast! If we're all beasts, then of course you're my dad!"
"Who dared secretly call me a beast?"
"Give me spirit stones and I'll tell you."
"..."
Tang Yu let go of Nangong Ying, caught the creature, and gave it a few pats on the rear while yelling:
"You miserable freeloader, asking for spirit stones! You eat my stones every day! Do you think that's how you cultivate?"
Because this creature had exceptional talent and a special constitution, its best cultivation method was devouring spirit stones.
The higher its level, the more it ate, and the worst part was that at its current level it wasn't even useful for fighting.
A pure expense, like raising a pig.
"Hey hey hey, Dad, I get it! If anyone calls you a beast, I'll return the insult! Don't hit me anymore, auntie, help me!"
Tang Mao shouted for Nangong Ying's help.
Since Tang Yu spent little time at the Sect, Tang Mao stuck to Nangong Ying every day, wandering the Sect. Their relationship was excellent.
In contrast, with Liu Yanlan, who as Sect leader was stricter, he wasn't so close.
"Alright, alright, he's still a kid. And everyone's watching."
Nangong Ying smiled and took Tang Mao into her arms.
After all, in the future, he would be the Sect's guardian beast. It wasn't appropriate to hit him in front of the disciples.
Held by Nangong Ying, Tang Mao stuck out his tongue going "bleh bleh bleh," and when Tang Yu raised his hand, he ducked his neck and used Nangong Ying as a shield.
While the two and the fox played laughing, the ship had already docked at Hehuan Sect.
A group of elders and disciples, returning to the Sect after so long.
They immediately disembarked to rest; some hurried to find their partners to cultivate together, others rushed to claim rewards and buy magical treasures.
Compared to previous years in Yinming Sea.
This time the losses were minimal, and the gains many times greater.
That's why, upon returning, everyone wore radiant smiles and bowed deeply to Tang Yu, the Sect's deputy leader.
With the deputy leader here, the sky is blue!
"And big sister Liu? Why didn't she come to greet me?"
Seeing Liu Yanlan hadn't come, Tang Yu asked curiously.
"Big sister went into seclusion to cultivate. Her seclusion is like women's monthly cycles in the village, twice a year, each lasting three months."
Nangong Ying stroked the fox's head in her lap, the soft sensation had her holding on for hours without letting go.
"It's useless for her to lock herself away like that. Lonely yin won't thrive, that's very clear in our Hehuan Sect's manual: only harmony between yin and yang leads to the true path."
Tang Yu smiled. He had already tried convincing her several times, offering to help her cultivate.
But big sister was very shy and never accepted, no matter how much he insisted.
"You just arrived and it's already 'sister here, sister there,' and she was the one who specially came to greet you!"
Nangong Ying's voice had a hint of complaint.
Seeing her with that aggrieved wife look.
Tang Yu smiled and wrapped his arm around her waist. In a blink, they both disappeared and returned to their tower.
Back in his room, Tang Yu took out several items from his storage ring.
"This magical robe is very pretty, I got it especially for you at Yinming Sea. That pale yellow tone matches your temperament perfectly."
"These moon essences are also very rare treasures from Yinming Sea. You know how good they are for skin and beauty."
"This box contains ten-thousand-year-old pearls from Yinming Sea. Each one is worth a hundred supreme-grade spirit stones. There are twenty-eight in total..."
After taking out eight extremely valuable gifts.
Tang Yu looked sweetly at Nangong Ying.
"As soon as I arrived there, I started preparing gifts for you. No one else received this many! Only you have so many."
"And what about me?"
Tang Mao raised a pink little paw with big pleading eyes. After all, he was also the only spiritual beast in the family. Didn't he deserve at least three or four gifts?
"Oh, you have some too."
Tang Yu took out a handful of spirit stones and tossed them on the floor. "There you go."
"Unfair!"
Tang Mao huffed angrily, jumped to the floor, and began picking them up one by one to shove into his mouth. The hard stones crunched in his mouth like roasted beans.
Hearing his complaints, Tang Yu rolled his eyes.
His attitude toward women was like that of old netizens from his hometown.
If they gave affection, he gave ten points.
If not, zero.
If he wasn't interested in a woman, he didn't want to spend on her, especially if she was a gold-eating beast.
After checking the gifts on the table one by one.
Nangong Ying's eyes sparkled as if she'd swallowed a bouquet of flowers.
When she finished, she threw herself onto Tang Yu, covered his face with kisses, admiration in her gaze, and shouted excitedly:
"Little brother! You're the best in the world! How did you know I loved these things?"
"Maybe because they're all very valuable?"
With her on top, Tang Yu felt two soft things pressing against his chest.
If it weren't for the two layers of cloth, that would truly be pure pleasure.
"No no no, it has nothing to do with the value. If you like someone, you want everything of theirs. As long as it's a gift from you, even if it's a supreme-grade spiritual vein that's useless, I'd accept it happily."
Nangong Ying hugged his neck and clung even tighter. It had been a long time since she'd been in such a good mood.
"Do you like me that much? Then tell me, who do you choose: the spirit stones or me?"
As she spoke, Tang Yu gently stroked her back.
But seeing Tang Mao watching them with wide eyes.
Tang Yu snapped his fingers and threw her out of the tower.
Adult business, what's a kid doing watching?
