--- Chapter 111 ---

"Whoa, you really come here." Lan Shirou arrived in the dining hall and noticed Yu Long talking with her dear husband. She would never have thought to see this sight right now.

"Morning, Mother." Yu Long smiled at Lan Shirou.

Lan Shirou raised her eyebrows because this was the first time Yu Long called her 'mother' as he usually called her auntie. She glanced at Cang Yue and saw a glimpse of blush on her fair cheeks.

'Ah, my daughter has gotten eaten by this youth.' Lan Shirou guessed the situation correctly. She didn't expect her daughter to move this fast.

Well, she also gave Cang Yue a thumbs up inside.

She giggled and responded, "Morning." 

"When did you arrive?" 

"Hmm, maybe a couple of minutes ago." Yu Long answered after some thought. "We are flying here." 

Cang Wanhe listened to Yu Long's replies curiously and couldn't help but be stunned because the distance between the Imperial City and Lost Heaven Sect is several hundred thousand, if not millions, miles apart.

Flying at such a great distance must expend quite an energy, but none of them looks flustered when meeting him in the gallery. 

'He performs like the rumors said, a mysterious genius. Three years ago, he was only a peak Earth Profound Realm. I wonder how powerful his cultivation base is now?' Cang Wanhe thought to himself. 

After all, Cang Wanhe couldn't sense Yu Long's cultivation base despite being a 7th level of Sky Profound Realm himself. It means his son-in-law's cultivation base is far higher than him!

As the breakfast continued, Yu Long talked with his in-laws and got to know them better. He has met Lan Shirou several times, but Cang Wanhe is a different man than expected.

"I heard the collision with the Sunflower Dew's Nation three years ago caused a great change in the West. Father-in-law, have you done something about it?" Yu Long asked out of spite.

Cang Wanhe understood what Yu Long wanted to know and nodded calmly, "Yes, thanks to the Silver Lake City's lord and Lost Heaven Sect's influence, we could shave their border by a thousand miles." 

"We discovered some substantial mines in the area, which we used to increase the Blue Wind Empire's local workforce. We paid them well enough and allowed the talented children to train their bodies." 

"If you visit the area, you will find a new city called Beast Gate City there."

"Interesting." Yu Long mumbled. "What kind of minerals does this mine have?" 

Cang Wanhe placed down his spoon and recalled some information at the back of his head, "Coarse Moon Stone, Obsidian Red Dust, Burning Jade, and some ordinary ore like iron, copper, and gold." 

"Burning Jade, and Coarse Moon Stone. They are pretty rare. You can make decent armor for soldiers with it." Yu Long commented.

Cang Wanhe chuckled and returned, "That's the plan. Blue Wind Empire is lacking and has the lowest profound practitioners compared to other nations, so I sought other ways to increase soldier's quality."

"True, true, if you can raise their cultivation, equipping them with good armor and weapons will do as well." Yu Long agreed with Cang Wanhe's way of thinking. 

Meanwhile, Lan Shirou sat near her daughter and asked, "So when did he eat you exactly?" 

Cang Yue blushed and answered, "Two days ago..." 

"Oh? It's actually more recent than I thought." Lan Shirou leaned to Cang Yue's ears. "Who started it first?" 

"M-Me..." Cang Yue fumbled with her breakfast.

Lan Shirou was surprised as she thought Yu Long would take the first initiative.

But thinking about it, the golden-eyed youth is an overwhelming genius, so he should be somewhat lacking in romantic things.

'So he's a type that needs a little push first.' Lan Shirou didn't know this side of her son-in-law.

"By the way, how are you, Qingyue? Guan?" Lan Shirou greeted the quiet ladies on the opposite side of the table.

"Good." Hong Guan answered monotonously.

Xia Qingyue lifted her head from the plate below and smiled, "I'm good, auntie." 

'I can see that. You're glowing.' Lan Shirou's eyebrows twitched because Xia Qingyue had this victorious aura around her. She sighed inwardly as this young lady was too overpowering.

At least Lan Shirou wasn't that worried anymore. Her daughter has taken a firm spot!

"As for you two..." Lan Shirou glanced at Chu Yueli and Chu Yuechan, who wore blue-white maid outfits and veils.

"Have we met before?" 

Chu Yueli removed her veil and replied, "It's me, empress." 

"Fairy Chu Yueli??" Cang Wanhe, who was talking with Yu Long, was shocked by Chu Yueli's presence. 

'Does that mean the woman beside her is...' 

Chu Yuechan also removed her veil and greeted them, "It's been a while, Emperor, Empress." 

"W-What happened?" Cang Wanhe and Lan Shirou stared at Chu Yuechan in disbelief. Why did the number 1 beauty of Blue Wind Empire wear a maid outfit?

Chu Yuechan maintained her calm look and answered, "I owed Young Master Yu Long a lot, so he took me to become his maid to pay it back." 

"..." Cang Wanhe.

"..." Lan Shirou.

"Son-in-law/Yu Long, this is..." They glanced at Yu Long, who innocently slurped his noodles.

"What?" Yu Long cast a confused look. 

"As she said, I took her as my maid."

In the end, Chu Yueli was the one who explained Chu Yuechan's situation to them. 

"I see..." Cang Wanhe understood why Chu Yuechan became Yu Long's maid. If he was 'similarly' offered to become strong by Yu Long, he's willing to take a risk as well.

Lan Shirou didn't think it was this simple. 

She looked at her son-in-law solemnly and believed he wanted to make a harem of beauties. 'Aih, even the Blue Wind Empire's No. 1 beauty is taken away. Men throughout the era would cry blood if they knew this.' 

Her son-in-law is extremely capable, especially when catching beauty in the wild!

Yu Long noticed the mood become somewhat awkward and opened his mouth again, "There would be an auction in two weeks. Would you like to take a look, fathers-in-law, mother?" 

"Some intriguing items will get auctioned and might catch your interest."

"Are you talking about the incoming auction in the Blue Sky Auction House?" Lan Shirou asked back.

Yu Long nodded, "Yes, the one in the Blue Sky Auction House." 

Blue Sky Auction House is one of the Shadow Realm's assets and has generated quite an income over the last seven years. It's also quite famous in the Blue Wind Empire.

"Very well, it's good to get out and breathe fresh air sometimes." Cang Wanhe agreed immediately. He has been stuck in the Imperial Palace for months because of his neverending paperwork.

"It's decided then..." Yu Long chuckled heartily.

...

Two weeks later.

Several high-end carriages and profound arks arrived at the Blue Wind Imperial City. There was a rumor saying that a Sovereign-Grade Treasure would get auctioned tonight.

Yes, we are talking about the peak of the peak. Only the top powerhouses of the Sky Profound Continent can use such a thing!

A carriage with a Blue Wind Imperial crest arrived at the clean street, facing a massive building with white walls and blue tiles.

The carriage's door opened, revealing two men who walked with beauty in their arms. 

"That's the emperor..." People on the street start clamoring. 

"Woah, he actually attends this auction."

"I mean, who wouldn't? There will be a Sovereign-grade Treasure tonight!" 

Cang Wanhe glanced at them and smiled, "Hope you have a great night." 

After saying that, Cang Wanhe brought Lan Shirou into the Blue Sky Auction House. The confident stride gives off the feeling of a dignified emperor.

"Well, let's go inside as well." Yu Long looked at the two ladies in his arms.

Xia Qingyue and Cang Yue nodded, hugging his arms tightly. They wore veils to cover their beautiful faces, but even the curves of their body were more than enough to make the onlookers swallow in surprise.

"Who's that guy?" 

"Uugh, lucky bastard. He has two beautiful women in his embrace."

"Shuush, don't you see that he was coming here with the emperor himself! That means one of the beautiful ladies is Princess Cang Yue." 

"The princess finally returned..." 

"No, you don't see the bigger picture. The princess hasn't gone public for years, and some rumors said it was because she accompanied her fiance." 

"And her fiance is none other than that young man!" 

"That young man?" 

"The Lost Heaven Master's Disciple..." 

However, the shock didn't end there as Hong Guan, Chu Yueli, and Chu Yuechan followed behind Yu Long silently. Their alluring aura caused a gasp to everyone in the street.

"S-Shit, he even has three beautiful maids following him." 

"Tsk, tsk, how envious." 

"You men are short-sighted. Only those women deserved to be such handsome young master's maids. If I had such an appearance, I would do the same." 

"But you don't, bitch!" 

"HUH! You wanna fight, you wimp!" 

Yu Long started a war between men and women in the street by walking in a public space. He doesn't know whether he should laugh or cry at this achievement.

"You created quite a commotion there." Lan Shirou giggled at them.

Yu Long shrugged, "I can't blame them. My wives and girls are too beautiful." 

A female servant in Blue Sky Auction House's lobby came to them and bowed, "Young Lord, the VVIP room no. 1 is ready." 

Yu Long waved his hand and said, "Escort us there." 

"Eh, VVIP room?" Cang Wanhe was stunned. "I never thought you had such a deep connection with Blue Sky Auction House." 

Just so you know, VVIP rooms of Blue Sky Auction House are only reserved for people with peak Tyrant Profound Cultivation or above. 

And no. 1 room signified that the status of Yu Long is not simple.

"Haha, not really." Yu Long laughed humbly.

"I never visited the auction house before, but..." 

"I own the place."
