Chapter 40: Xiao Yu: Actually... It's Not Impossible
After handling everything and fully recovering his energy, Mo Yu slowly walked out of the cave and headed straight back to his family.
Returning to the family in a good mood, he walked to the front courtyard and noticed the three elders hurrying past him with somber and angry expressions. Pausing, a hint of contemplation flashed in Mo Yu's eyes. He had clearly noticed the grim and furious looks on their faces.
"If I remember correctly, the Xiao family seems to have some trouble coming up soon," a fragment of memory flickered in his mind. Shaking his head, Mo Yu turned around and saw a tall, beautiful woman in an academy uniform with long legs angrily approaching him from a nearby path.
Looking at the tall, beautiful, and sexy Xiao Yu in front of him, Mo Yu's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't seen his fiancée in months, and he did miss her... and those long legs.
Caught off guard by Mo Yu's intense gaze, Xiao Yu's previously aggressive demeanor softened, and her face turned slightly red. She took a step forward, her eyes scanning Mo Yu up and down, and with a mix of annoyance and concern, she asked, "You broke through?"
Over the past few months, Mo Yu had secluded himself to focus on refining, using the excuse of breaking through in cultivation. Although his main goal wasn't cultivation, with the help of the Xuan Thunder and the Tian Gang Thunder Body, his strength had not stagnated. Thus, facing the pretty woman in front of him, he nodded calmly.
"Indeed, I made a breakthrough. I apologize for not being able to accompany you these past months," Mo Yu said, feeling touched by Xiao Yu, who had been waiting for him all this time.
Hearing his words, Xiao Yu's anger dissipated like a deflated balloon. The fury in her heart vanished instantly.
Stepping forward with her long, sexy legs, she reached out with her fair hands and carefully smoothed out Mo Yu's slightly wrinkled clothes.
Seeing the usually fiery and headstrong Xiao Yu act so gently, Mo Yu was taken aback but soon relaxed and enjoyed the moment. Over the past six months since the family gathering, their relationship had become more natural and harmonious. Such behavior might have been unthinkable for Xiao Yu before, but now she did it willingly.
Nearby, some family members occasionally passed by, and seeing Xiao Yu, who was usually so proud and arrogant, acting like a dutiful wife tidying up Mo Yu's clothes, they were all stunned, followed by envy and jealousy.
Xiao Yu, being the most beautiful, mature, and proud woman in the family, had always attracted many admirers, especially with her sexy long legs that haunted their dreams. Seeing her so docile now made them marvel at Mo Yu's 'wife-taming' skills.
Looking down at her delicate face, with a strand of hair falling on her ample chest, occasionally lifted by the breeze, revealing her soft curves, and those alluring long legs moving gently, Mo Yu's breathing gradually quickened, and his gaze grew hotter.
In his past life, Mo Yu, surrounded by enemies and disillusioned with love, had never thought of starting a family. He rarely considered matters between men and women. But in this life, living a leisurely and comfortable existence in a young body, he found himself increasingly...
"Mo Yu... what, what are you looking at?" Xiao Yu's face turned red as she finally noticed his intense gaze, softly chiding him.
"Uh..." Mo Yu snapped out of it, feeling a bit embarrassed, but his thick skin helped him recover quickly. After a couple of coughs, he said nonchalantly, "Nothing, I just think you're getting more and more beautiful."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu hummed softly in response, not denying it. Her red lips curved into a pleased smile.
Standing with her sexy legs crossed, Xiao Yu shyly said, "Actually, if you want... it's not impossible, just not here..."
After speaking, the usually bold and brash Xiao Yu looked down shyly, like a new bride.
Hearing this, Mo Yu was stunned, then realized what she meant. In the Dou Qi Continent, unlike the complicated customs of his previous world, once engaged, couples were practically married. Thus, premarital relations were not particularly frowned upon.
Over the past three months, Xiao Yu had been anxious about Mo Yu's seclusion, and today, in a moment of emotion, she had blurted out her feelings. Mo Yu couldn't help but laugh and shake his head.
He had merely shown a natural reaction, not intending to do anything rash. Without enough strength to protect himself, he wouldn't act irresponsibly. However, Xiao Yu's heartfelt expression moved him. Smiling, he said, "There's no rush. If possible, I'll give you a grand wedding."
Hearing his words, Xiao Yu's face turned even redder, nodding shyly. After speaking her mind, she had felt a bit regretful, worried that Mo Yu might misunderstand her intentions. Thankfully, he hadn't rushed things and instead promised a grand wedding. What could make a woman happier?
Not wanting to dwell on the topic, Mo Yu changed the subject, "Has something happened in the family recently? Why do the elders look so upset?"
"Yes, recently, the Jia Lie family hired a first-tier alchemist. Their market now sells a healing medicine called 'Rejuvenation Powder,' which is cheap and high-yield, very popular among mercenaries near Wu Tan City," Xiao Yu said with a frown.
"The popularity of 'Rejuvenation Powder' has caused our markets to lose nearly half of their foot traffic. With fewer people, many merchants have moved to the Jia Lie family's markets. In just a few days, our family has suffered significant financial losses, and Uncle Xiao is overwhelmed with worry."
Hearing this, Mo Yu nodded in understanding. No wonder the three elders looked so grim...
Rubbing his chin, Mo Yu squinted, pondering, "Commercial competition... I remember Xiao Yan personally took down the Jia Lie family in the end..."
