Marry a Wife for Longevity, I Will Establish a Family of Immortals

17: Why do you always like to ask someone to take care of your wife and daughter?“...” Su Yuan instantly sobered up, “Brother, you’re not serious!”

“You want to explore the Opportunity too?”

“Have you thought it through? The dangers involved?”

“Phew!” Zhao Yue exhaled, his eyes firming up.

“Brother Su!”

“You might not know!”

“I heard this Secret Realm is an Immortal Cave of a Foundation Establishment cultivator!”

“The Spiritual Plant garden within has fruit trees that provide a hundred years of efficacy, and there are even Spirit Nurturing Fruits!”

“I’ve thought about it; just going to the periphery to collect some Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicines shouldn’t be dangerous!”

Zhao Yue paused thoughtfully as he spoke, then continued:

“Brother doesn’t want to ask you to go together!”

“I know you won’t go explore, I just want to ask you for one thing!”

“What is it?” Su Yuan asked, feeling a bit strange.

“If Brother truly doesn’t return, please help take care of my wife and daughter!”

“...” Su Yuan was stunned, his face growing even more speechless.

Why do they all like to entrust their wives and daughters to others?

“Fellow Daoist Su!”

“I know your character!”

“If you can take care of my wife and daughter, and raise my daughter until she grows up, please keep her by your side!”

“Even if it’s as a maid, a concubine...”

“Stop!” Before Zhao Yue could finish, Su Yuan raised his hand and said with a serious expression:

“Don’t worry!”

“As long as I am still in Tianyun City!”

“Your wife and daughter will certainly be taken care of properly!”

“As for anything else, you’ll have to wait until you return yourself!”

“Good!” Zhao Yue’s face lit up with excitement. He glanced at Su Yuan and Zhou Yi, his eyes showing no hesitation, and then walked directly out of the room and left the courtyard.

Seeing Zhao Yue leave, Zhou Yi was a bit worried:

“Is Uncle Zhao going to be alright?”

“Is collecting Spirit Medicine really safe?”

“Who knows!” Su Yuan shook his head, “It’s truly strange. Zhao Yue, that fellow, should be quite cautious. He’s already married and has children, ready to enjoy his later years, so why would he go to Mist Mountain?”

But thinking about it, Su Yuan could understand.

As a Loose Cultivator, Zhao Yue saw no hope and had to accept his fate, marrying and having children.

But now, a Secret Realm suddenly appeared right before him.

It would be hard for anyone to suppress the stirring in their heart.

They would want to take a gamble.

Regardless of whether this Secret Realm was real or fake, they would want to be the first to try.

At least, there was this Opportunity now, before the major Sects and Cultivation Families gathered.

To go and explore in advance.

“Perhaps Zhao Yue also has some secrets!”

“Some confidence!”

Su Yuan narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then didn’t dwell on it further.

He knew that everyone had their own secrets, and there was no need to pry.

It was possible he received inside information.

It was possible he had a trump card, which was why he dared to explore the Opportunity.

To be even more outrageous, he might have obtained a Secret Realm map and could enter the Secret Realm.

Zhao Yue was the chosen one, gaining a Secret Realm Legacy in his old age, thus soaring to greatness.

This was not impossible!

...

Three days later.

Early morning, a fine drizzle fell.

As news of the Secret Realm spread, many Cultivators came to explore the Opportunity in Mist Mountain.

Tianyun City also became lively.

On the streets, one could see Sect Disciples dressed in brocade silks and neat attire, as well as wealthy noble families, forming a stark contrast with the city’s original inhabitants.

It was clear that these were Disciples who had come for experience.

Their elders had not yet followed.

Su Yuan guessed that once the Secret Realm news was confirmed, all major forces would come.

They would not give Loose Cultivators any chance to explore.

Even if a Secret Realm was discovered, it would be controlled by the Sects and Cultivation Families.

Loose Cultivators could only do as Zhao Yue said.

Search for Spiritual Plants on the periphery.

Of course, these matters did not concern Su Yuan; he was preparing to set up his stall to earn living expenses.

He had been making a fortune from his stall these past two days.

Even if it rained, he would still go.

These Sect Disciples were not short on Spirit Stones at all; they loved to buy old items, or even Magic Treasure fragments, hoping to find a bargain and repair a Magic Treasure.

This made Su Yuan secretly chuckle.

If there truly was a bargain to be found, how could it be someone else’s turn?

It would have long been taken to the auction house for auction.

“Fellow Daoist Su, are you home?”

Just then, there was a knock on the courtyard door, followed by a clear voice.

Then the door opened, revealing a dignified figure dressed in a white dress, who quickly walked into the courtyard. It was the wife of the Loose Cultivator next door.

Fairy Yun Yao.

“I am!”

Su Yuan quickly walked out, a smile on his face, and began to invite her in:

“Fairy, please come inside the house quickly.”

“It’s still raining! Don’t get wet...”

Su Yuan looked at the dignified and refined Fairy Yun Yao, dressed in a white dress, and couldn’t help but remind her.

He could tell that Yun Yao had been rushing about outside for a long time.

Otherwise, such a small rain wouldn’t have soaked her clothes, revealing her graceful and lithe figure.

“Ah!” Fairy Yun Yao’s face showed embarrassment. She looked at her soaked clothes and finally reacted, seeming a bit self-conscious.

But she still looked at Su Yuan, her eyes filled with urgency, and tugged at her clothes as she said:

“Fellow… Fellow Daoist Su, are you free now?”

“My husband went to Mist Mountain and hasn’t returned for a long time. I want to invite you to come with me...” Fairy Yun Yao bit her lip lightly, seeming to find it hard to speak:

“Although I know the situation outside the city is complex, and there are many Sect Disciples...”

“Fellow Daoist Su, can you help go investigate?”

“...” Su Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he remained silent, only looking at the raindrops falling from the sky and the pitiful person in front of him:

“Let’s discuss this inside first!”

“It wouldn’t be good if you caught a cold!”

“Mhm!” Fairy Yun Yao, the female Cultivator, nodded and followed Su Yuan into the house.

Zhou Yi had already brewed tea, a gentle smile on her face. She bowed to Fairy Yun Yao and poured out a cup of tea, saying:

“Fairy Yun Yao, please have a cup of hot tea first!”

“Thank you!” Yun Yao took the tea, sat quietly by the tea table with a dignified posture, pursed her red lips, and looked at Su Yuan, her eyes filled with urgency:

“Fellow Daoist Su, my husband...”

“Cough, cough!” Su Yuan coughed lightly, interrupting her words:

“Fairy Yun Yao, there’s no need to rush. Please change into some clean clothes first!”

“Okay!”

Yun Yao looked at her wet clothes, a blush rising on her cheeks. She followed Zhou Yi into the room.

After changing into a set of white clothes, she came out.

She then slowly began to explain.

It turned out that at dusk three days ago, Zhou Wu had directly left their residence and entered the Mist Mountain range.

There had been no news of him since then.

Even the secret communication technique between them had shown no activity.

This made Yun Yao anxious, which was why she came to find Su Yuan, hoping he could help search.

She felt that he must have encountered some danger.

Otherwise, it was impossible for him to be completely out of contact.
