Xiao Lin has been very busy during this period. He has visited the Mitel family, the Mu family, and the royal family one by one.

After hearing what Xiao Lin wanted to say, the three families said they could understand, but since Old Xiao agreed so readily, they didn't object much.

During this period, there were other forces that wanted Xiao Zhen to help refine some sixth-grade elixirs. Except for his old friend Nalan Jie, they were all stopped by Xiao Lin.

Xiao Zhen always felt that his father seemed to have the aura of an agent these days, so much so that when he and Chiyu were shopping, he could always sense a familiar scent behind them.

Naturally, Xiao Lin's little actions could not be hidden from Chiyu's discerning eyes, but she didn't care much, because she could feel that he was Xiao Zhen's father, and his main focus was not on her, so she didn't pay much attention.

In the end, it was Xiao Zhen who couldn't stand it anymore and was the first to reveal his cards, and only then did Old Xiao give up.

Xiao Zhen also discovered that since his identity as a sixth-rank alchemist spread, more people seemed to be looking for him. These people either wanted to maintain some relationships or to establish some connections.

Akabane smiled charmingly and said, "You are becoming more and more famous now, our sixth-rank alchemy master!"

Xiao Zhen looked at the beautiful face next to him and smiled awkwardly. Now the relationship between the two was heating up rapidly. At least the girl no longer had a cold face. When the two were together, she would smile faintly and even tease him occasionally.

Akabane has now one foot in the quagmire of love, unable to extricate himself. As for the group of subordinates in the Monster Mountain Range, they have been completely forgotten.

During this period, many messages came from the Warcraft Mountain Range, but many of them were secretly intercepted by Xiao Zhen.

Many of these messages cursed the Tyrannosaurus God and the Tiger King for disobeying orders and secretly controlling all the sixth-level monsters. They hoped that the Overlord could come back and take charge of the situation again.

On a sunny morning, Xiao Zhen took Chiyu to the street again, focusing on those neighborhoods with delicious food, mainly because Xiao Zhen discovered that this woman was of the same type as Die.

Akabane was in a good mood as he licked a snack similar to candied haws. However, when he saw a family of four having fun not far away, he suddenly felt envious.

Xiao Zhen also noticed this phenomenon and asked in confusion: "Yu'er, what's wrong with you? Do you know that family?"

Akabane shook her head, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said with longing: "Ah Zhen, what do you think home feels like?"

Xiao Zhen was also confused by the question. He couldn't understand why Chiyu suddenly asked this. Could it be that he felt envious after seeing that family?

But upon closer inspection, the red thread on Akabane's hand, which only he could see, was emitting a strange pink light.

Wait a minute, there's a man and a woman, and the woman asks what home feels like. He's familiar with this routine!

A faint smile began to appear on Xiao Zhen's lips. He gently took the hand of the beautiful woman next to him and said softly:

“Home is a warm place where your closest people are. They will eat with you, be happy with you, and go through difficulties with you.”

There was a wave in Akabane's eyes, and he said sadly:

"Home is such a wonderful place, but unfortunately... I never had one!"

Akabane recalled that when he was a child, he was born in a crater. There was nothing around him except magma and red rocks.

She was born as a fourth-level monster, which was pretty good. However, this kind of strength was still not enough in the Monster Mountain Range where the law of the jungle prevails.

At first she didn't dare to go too far away from the volcano, fearing that she would be taken as the next meal by other powerful monsters. However, relying on some skills remaining in her mind, which seemed to be passed down in her blood, in just less than a hundred years, even without many resources, she still cultivated to the sixth-level monster.

Akabane has a rather aloof personality, and also has some homebodies qualities. He is barely docile, and rarely fights for territory with other monsters, so no monsters bother him.

Thinking about how she had lived for nearly a thousand years since she was born, she had never seen any family members and had no idea who her parents were.

Xiao Zhen looked at Chiyu's distressed expression and slowly embraced her in his arms.

Akabane did not resist. Feeling the warmth of the man's chest next to him, he gritted his teeth and said softly:

"A Zhen, can you give me a home?"

Xiao Zhen couldn't help but laugh evilly in his heart, the highlight was finally here, after soaking for so many days, the seeds were about to bloom.

Xiao Zhen gently stroked Chiyu's cheek with one hand and chuckled:

"As long as you don't mind, I can be your family now. It's just that you know some of my circumstances. Let me ask you again, are you...really willing?"

Chiyu struggled internally for a while. Xiao Zhen was engaged to the princess of the empire, and there was a Douhuang snake girl at home. Moreover, this guy once revealed that he had a son outside.

Xiao Zhen looked at Chiyu's struggling expression and thought to himself, "Oh no! Is it because I'm too honest? Is this going to fail today?"

The red line on Akabane's wrist shone brightly again, which eliminated the last bit of psychological resistance.

"I am willing, but you must promise to treat me well for the rest of your life and never abandon me!"

Chiyu looked up at Xiao Zhen, tears already flashing in his eyes, as if he was about to cry at the next moment.

Xiao Zhen's heart was also touched. Although he knew that there must be some red thread behind this, he had been together for such a long time and the woman in front of him was such a beauty. It would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for her at all.

If the streets weren't crowded with people, given Xiao Zhen's character, he would have succeeded today.

Xiao Zhen gently lifted Chiyu's chin and said seriously:

"I promise you that I will take good care of you in the future. If you want, I will marry you tomorrow!"

Chiyu didn't say anything, just pressed it gently and leaned his head on Xiao Zhen's arms.

The next morning, a piece of news spread throughout the imperial capital. It was said that Young Master Xiao Zhen, who had just become a sixth-rank alchemist, was going to marry a woman today. However, this woman was certainly not a princess. After all, the princess was not even ten years old, and the royal family would not allow her to get married now.

This marriage was really hasty. Even Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Lin, who received the news last night, were really shocked.

Xiao Lin also pulled Xiao Zhen aside and cursed him in a low voice: "It's fine if you're messing around outside, but why are you bringing her home now? What about the beautiful snake in your yard and the little princess in the palace?"

Xiao Zhen leaned close to his father's ear and whispered a few words.

Xiao Lin originally thought that this guy wanted to bribe him with some benefits, so he was just about to raise the price, squeeze out more benefits, and then help this guy make a trip to the palace.

Xiao Lin's eyes gradually grew bigger and bigger, and he exclaimed in disbelief:

"Fuck! You are really..."

The news Xiao Zhen gave was so explosive that Xiao Lin found it hard to accept. He had just been promoted to Dou Huang, and he thought that if Xiao Zhen was abused by the Die family in the future, he would be able to stop it.

Unexpectedly, this brat turned around and married someone even more powerful, which made him feel a little heartbroken.

"Is what you said true? Are you trying to trick your father?"

"How could that be? Everything your son said is true. You should stop interfering in the future. By the way, the royal family also knows about this!"

Xiao Lin touched his aching head and said helplessly, "Okay, I won't take care of what happens next, you go find the Great Elder to make the arrangements.

I'll go downstairs and take a rest first, and call me when you come back to worship!"
