I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

368: Are you his uncle or his apprentice?”Junior Martial Uncle?” Shen Nian was a bit surprised, then realized, his lips curling slightly: ”Is Luo Xuanyin your Junior Martial Uncle?”

He naturally guessed who the Junior Martial Uncle the other party was referring to.

For a moment, he was actually stunned, his brows slightly furrowed, not knowing how to explain his relationship with her.

If he were to say they weren’t, what happened in the ruins was undeniable, and Luo Xuanyin’s subsequent actions also indicated many things; Shen Nian was not the type of person to pull up his pants and deny everything, especially since he did have some feelings for this woman.

But if he were to say she was his woman, wouldn’t the seniority be a bit messed up? Although Shen Nian had never called him uncle, the relationship was real.

The situation was getting a bit complicated...

”Correct.” Ning Fuyao nodded; there was no need to hide Luo Xuanyin’s identity from Shen Nian, as her Incarnation in the Heavenly Abyss would spread sooner or later.

”You don’t need to overthink it, just tell the truth. I was just a bit curious why Junior Martial Uncle was so agitated because of you just now...”

Ning Fuyao feigned calmness, but beneath his silver cloth, there was a hint of nervousness; this was an unusual feeling he hadn’t experienced in many years.

Just then.

Creak.

The ancient courtyard door was pushed open.

A phantom figure walked out. The divine light of the Dao Sect around her body dissipated, revealing her true appearance. She was no longer wearing white, but had donned the Daoist robe bestowed upon her by her Revered Master, the Dao Ancestor. Like her ice-blue long hair, her robe was blue, and behind her was a Yin and Yang diagram. Her temperament was extraordinary, and she had pinned up her blue hair with a hairpin, looking exactly like a Dao Sect Fairy.

Her face, carved from ice jade and beautiful as a celestial fantasy, had lost some of its cold majesty and gained a touch of femininity, making it even more alluring, especially those long, slender legs and proud figure, which were hard to conceal even beneath the Daoist robe.

”No need to ask. My relationship with Shen Nian is merely a platonic friendship. The only reason I intervened was because I could not bear to see such a heaven-favored talent fall to Candle Nine Nethers...”

”After all, Shen Nian is the hope of the Human Race...”

Luo Xuanyin stood with one hand behind her back, looking arrogant, her voice as cold as an ice abyss, her beautiful eyes gazing at the distant rockery, not looking at the two of them.

”A platonic friendship, huh...” Shen Nian looked at Luo Xuanyin with surprise, a faint smile curling on his lips.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fuyao immediately bowed respectfully and said: ”Yes, Junior Martial Uncle!”

He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Thankfully, it wasn’t that kind of relationship!

Behind the ancient courtyard door.

Several figures were carefully clinging to the wall, using dao rhyme to conceal their aura, while the aura emitted by the time-space wheel disrupted the space around them, making it difficult for outsiders to detect them.

”Not that kind of relationship?”

”That shouldn’t be...”

”Luo Xuanyin’s behavior earlier was just like someone had killed her husband...”

”And Old Ghost Shen, she was too polite to you just now, even bringing out Immortal Dew to heal you and restore the Origin you consumed earlier. How could people from White Jade Capital be so polite to you? It’s even less likely for them to be so generous; that’s Immortal Dew!”

”I thought your Shen Family and White Jade Capital were deeply fated; your grandson took down Ning Fuyao’s precious sister, and now his son has turned around and taken down the person in charge of White Jade Capital...”

Old Man Tianji whispered to himself while pressed against the wall, frowning. He had arrived shortly before Shen Nian and heard the commotion outside the door.

”Old Ghost Shen, this is a rare and good great-granddaughter-in-law. Her appearance and cultivation are hard to find in the Human Race. You must pay attention!”

Who doesn’t know now that this Dao Sect successor is the true ruler of White Jade Capital!

Ning Fuyao calls her Junior Martial Uncle!

That proves that this woman is not from this generation at all; her status as a Reincarnation is confirmed!

She might even be a Fairy or something!

”Can you shut the hell up!”

”Asking, asking, asking!”

”None of your business!”

Shen Min cursed at him via telepathy, frowning beside him. His complexion had improved significantly. After using that divine talisman to annihilate Moro, his consumption was immense, especially since he had already reversed his life to return to his golden years.

Therefore, at the moment the Heavenly Abyss collapsed, the resulting time-space chaos had knocked him unconscious. When he woke up again, he was in the branch of the Human Emperor Hall at Imperial Pass, and it was Luo Xuanyin who was healing him.

”Old Ghost Shen, didn’t you ask anything?” Old Man Tianji asked via telepathy.

Shen Min couldn’t help but recall the earlier healing scene.

”Many thanks to Fairy Luo of White Jade Capital for intervening to heal this old man, but I cannot accept this Immortal Dew under any circumstances...”

The other party did not speak, simply continuing to use her Innate power to heal Shen Min, and the Immortal Dew did not stop.

”Cough, cough, cough... Fairy, you are quite stubborn, you have the style of my Shen Family, hahaha. By the way, how old are you, Fairy?” Shen Min was an old fox; how could he not see that this woman from White Jade Capital was interested in his own descendant...

As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Xuanyin’s cheeks just flushed slightly, but she remained silent.

”Um... forgive this old man for speaking too much, but... are you and my little Nian in that kind of relationship?”

”Fairy Luo?”

At the same time, a voice came from outside the door again.

”You may withdraw first. I have some matters to discuss with the Human Emperor...” Luo Xuanyin spoke softly, her expression remaining cold, while a trace of hard-to-capture sadness flashed deep within her beautiful eyes.

Did he tacitly agree...

”Yes, Junior Martial Uncle!”

Ning Fuyao bowed respectfully, then turned and walked into the door. He didn’t suspect anything; after all, Shen Nian’s strength was already sufficient to converse with his Junior Martial Uncle on equal footing. With the Heavenly Abyss collapsed, if the Immortal King were to pass through and a great war were to begin, there were indeed many things to discuss.

”I don’t know how this kid Cultivates...”

”To think he is an Innate Chaos Body, why couldn’t I see it before...” Ning Fuyao muttered to himself as he walked. Only now did he feel deeply shocked and incredulous at the strength Shen Nian had erupted with, even feeling as if he were in a dream.

His little nephew, who just a while ago still needed him to lead him into the Heavenly Demon Realm to kill.

In the blink of an eye, he had already reached a level that he himself had to look up to!

”My sister has indeed given birth to a good son...”

Ning Fuyao couldn’t help but think of his sister, and beneath his silver cloth, there was a deep look of longing.

The next second.

”Hmm?”

”What are you doing here?” Ning Fuyao frowned immediately upon seeing Shen Min and Old Man Tianji clinging behind the door, looking like thieves with guilty consciences.

Whoosh!

Old Man Tianji grabbed Ning Fuyao, with what seemed like a time-space Divine Ability flowing. Once Ning Fuyao reacted, he became somewhat displeased and wanted to break free.

”Shh~~!!”

”Don’t make a scene, don’t you want to know what kind of relationship your Junior Martial Uncle and your nephew have?”

”Are you his uncle or his junior martial nephew?”

Old Man Tianji immediately made a shushing gesture and said hurriedly.

”What kind of nonsense is that!” Ning Fuyao was momentarily slightly angry and scolded coldly, then glanced at Shen Min next to Old Man Tianji, his expression turning cold.

”Hmph!”

”Playful by nature!”

”Is this how a clan ancestor should act!”

”If you hadn’t acted reasonably today, I wouldn’t even bother speaking to you about these things!”

What Ning Fuyao couldn’t stand the most was Shen Min. Back then, he had insisted on preventing his sister from marrying into the Shen Family and did not hesitate to take action, but he was stopped by Shen Min, which had angered him for many years!

Shen Min just looked up at the door beam and whistled, as if he hadn’t heard the reprimand.

”Alright, you are both old enough, and so much time has passed, why are you still arguing about these things?” Old Man Tianji said helplessly.

Just as Ning Fuyao frowned and intended to say a few more words to Old Man Tianji, he heard a voice from outside the door.
