Chapter 157: The Bird in a Cage Delivered to the Door—How Could One Let It Go?

The reason Jiang Xun mentioned the name Lin Yiyi was because she was the only female disciple of the Baiyun Sect he knew of, and as it happened, she was close to Jiang Yan.

And now, Jiang Xun could only pray that Lin Yiyi was already a dead person.

Otherwise, Jiang Yan would definitely be in trouble today.

"Then, Big Brother, what should we do with her now?" Tu Cheng asked, looking back at Tu Qingtian.

It would take a few more days for the message to be returned.

"... Lock her in the Dungeon first," Tu Qingtian said.

"Alright." Tu Cheng nodded and walked out.

"Don't touch her randomly," Jiang Xun reminded Tu Cheng from behind.

"Tch..." Tu Cheng curled his lip; he knew he shouldn't touch her without Jiang Xun saying so.

"If she really is your woman, I can keep her for you to play with, but regarding the matter of Awan, shouldn't you consider it?"

Tu Qingtian then looked at Jiang Xun and said.

"After you marry Awan, you should cut off those little flings of yours; if you really can't bear to part with them, and if you perform well, I can allow you to bring them here to serve as Maids for you and Awan."

"This... regarding the matter of marriage, you know, it... it still has to depend on the wishes of both parties, and it depends on whether the Saintess takes a liking to me."

Jiang Xun said awkwardly.

"Once Awan wakes up, I will go ask her. You brat, you were quite ruthless; she has been asleep until now," Tu Qingtian laughed.

"The Saintess is a Nascent Soul cultivator after all; I couldn't knock her out without being ruthless," Jiang Xun said helplessly.

"Big Brother, so that was your intention all along!" Hearing the conversation between the two, Tu Mo looked happy: "Hahahaha, as expected, I have the same eye for talent as Big Brother."

"Then you should first find a place to settle this brat," Tu Qingtian nodded.

"Good lad, come with me." Tu Mo nodded, wrapped his arm around Jiang Xun's shoulder, and dragged Jiang Xun all the way out of Tianwu Hall.

After a bit of tossing about, he threw Jiang Xun into...

The Dungeon?

"Is this right? Big Brother, is this right?!"

Jiang Xun stood in the cell, gripping the bars with both hands, and shouted at Tu Mo outside.

"Hahahaha, isn't this the safest place? It saves you from running away secretly; get ready and wait for the wedding."

Tu Mo shouted at Jiang Xun with a loud laugh, then turned and left, completely ignoring Jiang Xun's cries.

You have to say, Tu Mo's train of thought is truly unique!

Who could say this place isn't safe?

"Following you really has no benefits, other than being able to sit in the dungeons of every sect," Si Yuyan couldn't help but laugh.

"In the novels I've seen, the protagonists always fight opponents of the same level, or at most fight someone a realm higher, and they've never even seen someone two realms higher before that. Why am I so unlucky..."

Jiang Xun squatted on the ground and sighed.

"Novels? What novels?"

Si Yuyan asked in confusion; what was this person rambling about?

"You don't understand, you don't understand." Jiang Xun shook his head, feigning profundity.

"If it really doesn't work, just give me the Soul Returning Pill, and then I..."

"Do not bring up this matter again." Jiang Xun shook his head with that same profound air: "Unless I am at the point of certain death, I will not resurrect you."

"Then just wait to marry Tu Wan, you live-in son-in-law."

Si Yuyan snorted coldly.

"Actually, come to think of it, that girl Tu Wan doesn't look bad, it's just that she's too willful, and the pressure would be immense after marrying her. Besides, I can't bear to part with A Qing and the others."

"Isn't that perfect? You can bring the Lingerie-Sect to join the Tianwu Sect, and when you succeed as the Sect Master of the Tianwu Sect, won't you be free to do as you please?"

Si Yuyan said upon hearing this.

"Big sister, if that Tu Qingtian breaks through to the Saint Realm, how much longer can he live? When will this ever end?" Jiang Xun felt a headache coming on.

"After I see Tu Wan, I'll brainwash her and see if she can help me get out of here."

With the Natural Charm Bone, Jiang Xun wasn't afraid of failing to charm Tu Wan; it just depended on whether Tu Wan could pull it off.

Having said that, Jiang Xun sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

Anyway, he couldn't do anything else now.

"Hey, are you going to marry me?"

I don't know how much time had passed when Tu Wan's voice reached Jiang Xun's ears. After opening his eyes, he found Tu Wan squatting at the cell door, staring at him.

"Big sister, it's your father who wants you to marry me, not me marrying you."

Jiang Xun said, looking at Tu Wan.

"That's great, that's great."

Tu Wan looked at Jiang Xun and nodded, looking completely infatuated.

'Oh no!' Jiang Xun was stunned at the sight. He suddenly remembered that when he came with Zhong Lingqing before, Tu Wan had said she had long wanted to see what the Hehuan Young Master looked like. Now she had really seen him.

This person is a sucker for looks!

If that's the case, once the Natural Charm Bone takes effect, there will only be one outcome for Tu Wan falling madly in love with Jiang Xun.

And that is that Tu Wan will risk her life to marry Jiang Xun!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xun hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look into Tu Wan's eyes.

"Yo, you're even shy."

Tu Wan laughed when she saw this.

"Shy my ass. I saved you, and this is how your father repays me? By locking me in here and forcing a marriage? You better hurry up and find a way to let me out."

Jiang Xun curled his lip and said.

"A bird in a cage that delivered itself to my door—what reason would I have to let it go so easily?" Tu Wan said, licking her red lips.

There was still a fragrance on her body; it seemed she had taken a bath and tidied herself up before coming over.

After all, having been locked in the water prison for a period of time, her body had indeed been filthy.

A bird in a cage?

Good grief, are all the people from the Tianwu Sect this messed up?

"Do you still want the Soul Returning Pill or not? If you do, hurry up and let me out."

Jiang Xun said, feeling helpless.

"My father said that as long as I obediently marry you, he will return the Soul Returning Pill to me so I can save A Bao." Tu Wan chuckled, still sizing Jiang Xun up, seemingly more satisfied the more she looked: "I think you look pretty good, and you're the only man outside of the Tianwu Sect I'm relatively familiar with; it's quite suitable, very good, very good."

"You really aren't picky, tsk tsk," Si Yuyan remarked sarcastically within Jiang Xun's divine sense.

"If you let me out, I'll give you the Soul Returning Pill, and I can even find you another man, how about that?" Jiang Xun still spoke with his head lowered; making eye contact at a time like this would be even more disastrous.

"The World's Number One Beautiful Man is already in my hands, what other man would I need to pick?" Tu Wan reached her hand into the cage... phew, the cell, and patted Jiang Xun on the shoulder: "Just accept it."

"I'm a 'second-hand' item that's been through hundreds of hands, you don't mind? I also have so many women." Jiang Xun began a self-destructive refusal.

"My father said those women will all be my handmaids in the future. Hehe, just thinking about it makes me a little excited. Occupying their man while ordering them around to do my chores—it even saves me the trouble of finding handmaids. It's quite good, very good."

Tu Wan withdrew her hand and laughed.

"The wedding is set for five days from now. We'll hold a grand ceremony after the disciples of the Tianwu Sect have all returned. For these next few days, you'll just have to bear with staying here."
