Chapter 1028: Chapter 1028: True Colors Revealed

Luo Shijie’s malevolent expression was fleeting, and soon the three brothers headed to the back hall to drink. Due to his young age, Luo Wei was kicked away by Luo Xin.

Under the matchmaking of Luo Xin, the four brothers at least appeared to be in harmony on the surface. To outsiders, Luo Xin promoted that Luo Shijie was the third son Luo Cheng had raised outside, and this was a family matter of the Luo Family, naturally not for others to comment on—only to speculate in conversation.

As for Luo Shijie’s, or the former Luo Yun’s, resurrection, you didn’t ask too many questions because Luo Xin did not explain, and you naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to inquire.

At the same time, another piece of news spread throughout Chang’an in just a day or two—that the Second Son of the Luo Mansion was going to get married, with the wedding set for eight days later.

This piece of news was undoubtedly the most delightful thing for Zhen Nan and Zi Yi.

Your heart too was filled with joy, for this meant you were finally going to start a family, and starting a family meant leaving the Luo Mansion to establish your own household.

Establishing your own household was exactly what you had always hoped for and looked forward to. You disliked being called the Second Young Master of the Luo Family, preferring to be called the Master.

Your foundation was in Minzhou. As soon as you received Luo Xin’s letter, Luo Xin had also submitted a leave request to the Court, for a simple reason: you were getting married.

Although the wedding was near, you still did not give up on cultivating. You had reached a bottleneck, and only through continuous breakthrough and non-stop cultivation could you find a way to break the bottleneck; otherwise, you would forever be stuck.

Night fell, and as you dragged your extremely weary body into your courtyard, Zhen Nan and Zi Yi hurried out from inside.

"Sir, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? This concubine will go prepare it right away."

Zi Yi and Little Yue went to prepare the meal, while Zhen Qi helped you to the bed and then carefully wiped your body. As she blushed and wiped your strong physique with a wet towel, her eyes and eyebrows revealed profound affection. It was unclear whether this affection was genuine or merely for show, and you did not know if Zhen Nan’s actions were sincere or just a facade.

Not long after, Zi Yi and Little Yue brought the food. You had a big appetite, but you ate quickly, sweeping the food clean in no time.

Once Zhen Nan and Little Yue left, you took Zi Yi into your arms. Zi Yi smiled sweetly, quietly resting her head on your hand, snuggling in your embrace. For some reason, just being in your arms, she felt an unprecedented sense of stability and security.

You smiled without saying much, feeling truly tired today, and soon began to snore softly. Zi Yi did not close her eyes; she continued to snuggle against you, inhaling the unique scent of your masculinity, watching you with sweet and warm eyes...

You woke up early and always cultivated in the outskirts until dark. Today, Zi Yi, Little Yue, and Cui’er had plans to go out shopping for cosmetics. They had invited Zhen Nan, but she declined, saying she wasn’t feeling well and chose not to go.

The Meng Family had taken Luo Wei out, and, as usual, Luo Xin went to attend to Court affairs, leaving only Luo Shijie and Zhen Nan in the Luo Mansion.

At noon, Luo Shijie slipped into your courtyard as a dark shadow. At this moment, Zhen Qi was grooming herself in the bathing room. Not finding anyone in your side room, Luo Shijie turned his attention to the bathing room.

Actually, over the past few days, Luo Shijie had been observing Zhen Nan. His intuition told him that Zhen Nan seemed to be an extremely rare Furnace Cauldron, very beneficial for his cultivation. That was why he risked danger to sneak into your courtyard.

Right now, in the Northwest Suburb, you stretched lazily, your eyes twinkling spiritedly as you said, "These past two days, the harvest has been quite good, it feels like I’m about to reach that thin barrier of the bottleneck."

Just as you were humming a tune on your way back to the courtyard, Luo Shijie was stealthily making his way into the bathing room. If it had been before, Zhen Qi might have noticed Luo Shijie entering the courtyard, but her complacent lifestyle lately had gradually lowered her guard towards the people around her.

It wasn’t until Luo Shijie entered the bathing room and stood outside the partition screen that Zhen Qi realized someone was standing there, and it obviously wasn’t you.

"Who’s there!"

Luo Shijie froze because, on the other side of the screen, he saw a figure that wasn’t quite human. Luo Shijie saw a voluptuous, seductive body with more than a dozen black vines swaying behind it, some even reaching around the screen, attacking towards him.

"Hey!"

Luo Shijie was no ordinary person. He was a cultivator who had been enormously blessed, having transformed from a Vengeful Ghost into a living being and even reached the Middle Stage of the Splitting Spirit Realm. Zhen Qi’s demonic power was not enough to contend with him.

The black vines that Zhen Qi had shot out did not harm Luo Shijie but were instead cut off by the Blue Light Treasure Sword he wielded. Looking at the withered black vines, Luo Shijie’s face revealed a victorious smile: "I didn’t expect this, to think that my dear sister-in-law is actually a tree demon! I wonder what would happen if father, mother, and elder brother knew about this?"

"Luo Shijie, so it’s you. What exactly do you want to do!" At this time, Zhen Qi had hurriedly put on a simple outfit, but due to her voluptuous figure, the thin bathrobe could not fully contain her magnificent bust, revealing a large expanse of soft, milky skin.

"What do I want to do? Don’t you understand?" Luo Shijie’s face showed a very malevolent smile, "Dear sister-in-law, you might as well just accept me, only by following me can you live a good life. That imposter might look impressive on the surface, but let me tell you, he won’t live much longer because he has offended someone who he can never defeat."

"Get lost! Even if I die, I won’t be with a degenerate like you!" As she spoke, Zhen Qi immediately wrapped the black vines around her, which quickly condensed into a huge black hand, reared back, and punched towards Luo Shijie.

"You’re just a Shaping Body demon, how can you fight against me!" Luo Shijie muttered to himself as the Blue Light Treasure Sword in his hand turned into countless blue threads that entangled the black hand and also the delicate body of Zhen Qi that drove countless men mad.

"My dear sister-in-law, tell me, will you comply now, or not?"

"Don’t push me too far! I would rather destroy my Demon Core than let you succeed!"

"Good! So spirited, that imposter is lucky to have married you, but I have some bad news for you. I have learned a secret technique from a master, called the Immortal Binding Art. Once caught by the Immortal Binding Art, Immortal Demons become like ordinary people. With your current Dao Level, you can’t break free at all, hehehe..."
