Chapter 447: He Has a Fiancée?

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao was speechless.

Lin Chuan is different from ordinary people; anyone can see that, right?

This girl seems a bit not very smart.

Let's try asking in another way.

"Lü Ya, may I ask you, what was your family's young master thinking when he first saw me? How did he react?" Tu Shan Jiao Jiao was curious.

"Seems... a bit surprised?"

Lü Ya remembered, it seemed like that.

At that time, the young master pretended to be nonchalant, but in fact he was surprised for a moment; she didn't know why.

"Surprised?"

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao, oddly, asked, "Why would he be surprised? Has your young master already known my true identity?"

"I don't know either."

Lü Ya shook her head; many of the questions she herself only partially understood.

In short, the young master is just very strange.

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao sensed something abnormal, but couldn't pinpoint what exactly, like a patched‑together painting that appears whole yet is actually distorted.

"What about me?"

Mo Sangyu couldn't help her curiosity either, "What was Lin Chuan's reaction when he first saw me?"

Lü Ya paused, "Seems like he was also a bit surprised?"

At those words, Mo Sangyu and Tu Shan Jiao Jiao's faces both darkened.

Dog man! What on earth is he surprised about?

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao, a bit out of breath, continued, "So Lin Chuan and that Spirit Clan woman, I think her name is Ye Xue, right? What is their relationship?"

"They..."

Lü Ya replied, "They have known each other for a long time; the first living being I encountered in the world was the young master and Ye Xue."

"At that time I was an ownerless celestial spirit, born in a strange realm."

"Later, the young master and Ye Xue found me."

"They both wanted to claim me, but for some reason, when I saw the young master it was like a fish seeing water; I just wanted to be with him."

"Ye Xue naturally failed in the contest."

Lü Ya was sincere, earnestly describing what had happened then.

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao and Mo Sangyu grew more shocked as they listened, "What about now? What is his relationship with Ye Xue?"

"Didn't the young master say? They're good friends."

Lü Ya looked at the two, "Just like you, you and Ye Xue are both good friends of the young master."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao and Mo Sangyu were momentarily speechless.

So this silly girl believed it.

That dog man, maybe he wants to take them all in one go?!

After Lü Ya said that, their mysterious fantasies about Lin Chuan shattered considerably, and they instantly felt that this man had been scheming from the start.

Although they were a little taken by this kind of story,...

It was just an indescribable weirdness.

In the two women's hearts, an idea was born simultaneously.

Before there is any outcome with Lin Chuan, they must first uncover the reasons; between themselves and Lin Chuan, some kind of secret must still be hidden.

If they don't reveal it, they fear they won't get past the hurdle in their hearts.

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao thought for a moment, gritted her teeth and asked again, "Does Lin Chuan have any other good friends?"

"Yes."

Lü Ya pointed toward Yan Beicheng in the distance, "He probably counts."

"..."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao emphasized again, "I'm talking about women, like me and Sangyu."

Lü Ya shook her head, "There aren't any, then."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao felt relieved, letting out a sigh.

She was truly afraid that Lü Ya might suddenly say something like there are hundreds or thousands of friends like her, which would really make her so angry she'd leave.

The atmosphere relaxed for a while.

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao thought of another question, "Lü Ya, among me, Sangyu, and Ye Xue, who does Lin Chuan favor the most?"

Even sensorially, she felt they were all the same.

But for some reason, she inexplicably had a desire for competition.

"None of them."

Lü Ya shook her head.

In her eyes, the two who were closest to the young master should be those two, because their statuses were different.

A level above "good friends".

"Huh?"

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao was stunned, "Didn't you say your young master no longer has good friends like us?"

"Right."

Lü Ya explained seriously, "It's not about good friends; the young master also has a sister, that's blood relation, naturally closer than a good friend."

"Lin Chuan also has a sister?"

Mo Sangyu was surprised.

Lin Chuan is so capable; I suppose his sister is also an extraordinary person.

"Hmm."

Lü Ya replied, "Sister is impressive; she is currently cultivating in the Purple Star Emperor Sect and is the most orthodox inheritor of the Purple Star Emperor Sect."

"So that's how it is."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao was suddenly enlightened.

No wonder Lin Chuan's cultivated techniques don't seem orthodox to the Purple Star Emperor Sect, but instead carry a hint of evil; from this, Lin Chuan's sister should be highly regarded within the Purple Star Emperor Sect.

Otherwise, the sect founder wouldn't have given Lin Chuan a talisman that contains a split of the law to use.

With this connection, everything can be fully explained.

Just as she was about to continue asking, Lü Ya spoke again, promptly adding,

"Besides his sister, the young master also has a childhood sweetheart fiancée, the daughter of the Cloud Kingdom's Grand General Yun Zhenshan, named Yun Zhi Yi."

Silence.

In an instant, the atmosphere stiffened.

It fell into a death-like silence.

Even the distant Yan Beicheng sensed it; the atmosphere on the deck changed instantly.

Lin Chuan! He already has a fiancée?!

Or is she his childhood sweetheart?

At this moment, Tu Shan Jiao Jiao truly felt what loss is; she had originally intended, after returning this time, to tell her parents that she had found the person she was looking for.

But…

Even though there are many powerful beings with three wives and four concubines, and female cultivators with countless male admirers, she still found it hard to accept at that moment.

Perhaps she should have left long ago.

Mo Sangyu's feelings were indescribable; saying she didn't care was false, yet saying she would leave immediately was something she simply couldn't do.

A certain inexplicable emotion instead grew stronger in her heart.

The two women silently left and returned to their respective rooms.

Leaving Lü Ya with a puzzled expression.

"Why did you suddenly become unhappy?"

"Is it because you learned the young master has a fiancée?"

"But... as long as the two of you are happy, isn't that enough?"

Just as when she first saw the young master, she decided she would follow him for life, never parting, and she never felt she had chosen wrong.

She never considered what it would be like if she chose another path.

Because she is with the young master, she is happy every moment, feeling as if she is the happiest person in the world.

"Perhaps I am still different from a real person."

Lü Ya encouraged herself, vowing to be a good person and to live earnestly.

The flying boat darted among the clouds.

After a long while, it landed in a lush Ancient Forest.

This is the Ancestral Land of the Battle Saint Ape tribe.

The Battle Saint Apes are an extremely powerful yet sparsely populated race; after generations of diluted bloodlines, they have now become somewhat declined.

Maintaining pure blood is difficult.

They can only rely on half‑blood reversion refinement to restore the pinnacle of pure blood.

When the old wanderer returned, the strong ones of the Saint Ape lineage gathered around, their eyes filled with anticipation.

"Ancestor, have you found a way to lift the curse and rescue the little monkey?"
