“Are you really seventeen years old? I didn't expect the Blue Moon Palace to experience such a thing! But, in any case I will not hand over my daughter to you!” Bing Caoji hit Shen Lao on the head, then laughed softly.

“Senior, who is interested in Miss Bing? I already have them, and what I'm looking for is the woman who accepted my condition.” Shen Lao replied to Bing Caoji's words and made the old geezer frown.

“Are you sure you're not interested in my daughter?” Bing Caoji asked in a soft whispering voice.

Shen Lao shrugged his shoulders, “Entah, for now no, either later..”.

Bing Caoji laughed at Shen Lao's reply, while behind him was Bing Jinxia chatting with Chi Rong.

After wreaking havoc in Taoyang City, Shen Lao is branded as the main mastermind of the Taoyang City Mayor's family murders. Luckily Jia Huaran gave a special letter to his father and defended Shen Lao.

Although Shen Lao's actions were very arrogant, the residents of Taoyang City were very grateful because with all that Shen Lao did, they would be free from the ruthless rule of Zhong Mengjia and Zhong Huazhi.

“Senior, Miss Bing-”

“Call me Grandpa Bing only, Lao.” Bing Caoji cut Shen Lao's words and looked down at the large road below their hillside.

“Grandfather Bing, Miss Bing, do you two think that this action of mine will trigger a great figure of the Ma Empire to attack the Jia Empire?” Shen Lao asked in a serious tone, now that he has a family, despite being young, but Shen Lao did not want to do something that made his family worried and in danger.

Bing Caoji stroked his beard, “Since the beginning, the Ma Empire has made a massive movement. I think the resources that the Single Demon Lantern and the Sin Sword Sect have come from there.”

Bing Caoji added that if the situation of the martial world was more complicated than he thought, even now the white and neutral streams are dropping each other, he said, so it was likely that the great martial world figure of the Ma Empire was utilizing that situation to attack the Jia Empire.

After Bing Caoji gave his opinion, Bing Jinxia was silent for quite a while before answering Shen Lao's question.

“Until now I have never seen anyone acting rashly like you. I just want to remind you, lest your actions put Sister Chi in danger!” Bing Jinxia's reply did not make Shen Lao satisfied, yet he understood Bing Jinxia's intent.

As the atmosphere of the night began to quiet down, Shen Lao came to Ling Qiuyu who was conversing with Jia Huaran. After Jia Huaran fell asleep, Ling Qiuyu approached Shen Lao who had been near the door.

“Looftege, where's Rongrong?” Ling Qiuyu asked to make sure Chi Rong had slept.

Shen Lao smiled thinly, “Rongs are asleep.” Without further ado, Shen Lao withdrew Ling Qiuyu's hand and led her to the Eternal Gorge. Although it required a great amount of inner energy, Shen Lao had not held back anything he could bear since not finishing it with Chi Rong in Taoyang City.

“Yuu, do you mind?” Shen Lao asked because he saw Ling Qiuyu's expression that looked annoyed.

Ling Qiuyu walked ahead of Shen Lao and opened the door of the room, “I don't mind. Honestly, I want to catch up with Rongrong who has been pregnant first.”

Shen Lao smiled brightly, “Lantas what pisses you off?” Shen Lao pinched Ling Qiuyu's cheeks and hugged her slender waist.

Ling Qiuyu sat on Shen Lao's lap and looked into the eyes of the young man who was eight years younger than him.

“What do you think pisses me off?” Ling Qiuyu shook her body softly and made Shen Lao squeeze something in a frenzy, until Ling Qiuyu screeched for a moment.

Shen Lao shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, as a sign that he did not know the thing that upset Ling Qiuyu.

“Basic!” Ling Qiuyu pinched Shen Lao's nose and pierced his body, “I'm upset because this desire of yours makes me feel like a dessert!”

Shen Lao laughed softly at Ling Qiuyu's remark, “This closing dish will take a long time, so are you ready, Yu?”

Before Ling Qiuyu replied, Shen Lao had already done his act. A long night they passed in the Eternal Gorge.
