If someone was only slightly more excellent than you, you might be a bit upset and jealous. But if that person was far more superior than you, you could only admire them from below.
Zi Qin had mixed emotions about this. Before, she had wanted to create a good relationship with XunMi. Now, she was a bit jealous of her. She at least had a bit of logic left, and didn’t allow her jealousy to become hatred.
Soon, the world forums were filled with XunMi and Si YuFan’s news. A post called became popular. Inside were pictures of the two from yesterday at Split Pool. There were also screenshots of the declaration Si Handsome made yesterday in the WorldChat.

All the comments and opinions couldn’t bother XunMi’s tail, Si YuFan. He finally had the change to enter her home, JueXian Pavilion. It was similar to what he expected, but with an addition of a touch of majesty. It complemented XunMi very well. He completely ignored that stupid fox-turned-human. It wasn’t XunMi, why should he care about it? Although he had already put XunMi in his heart, Si YuFan didn’t know exactly what his feelings for XunMi were. He had never been in a relationship before. He had such high IQ but low EQ, to the point that he didn’t understand what it meant to like someone. He only knew that he wanted to stay by her side and make her his.
Therefore, he specifically went to ask his mother. His mother told him that since he was interested, he might as well steal her away. Or maybe cling onto her and make her used to his presence so that she wouldn’t want to be separated from him.
Si YuFan decided that the latter option sounded the most hopeful, as that was the method his father used to court his mother. He had clung onto her until she agreed to marry him. If Si YuFan did the same now, he definitely can marry XunMi. With great beliefs, Si YuFan began stepping over his borders. XunMi allowed him to do whatever he wanted to. After all, this was her dear husband. Seeing how cute her husband was being, she’ll allow it for the time being. Of course, allowing it didn’t mean she was condoning it.
She dragged Little Nine away to go make use of the python’s spiritual energy bead while telling Si YuFan to act independently. She trusted her husband to not reveal her identity. Si YuFan was busy exploring every inch of XunMi’s place when he received a private message.
[QuietHumming: YuFan, are the forums true? You really found the love of your life?]
[Si Handsome: Forums? What.]
[QuietlyHumming: My god, how much do you not want to use your brain? You don’t even look in the forums?]
[QuietlyHumming: They say that you and that new big master XunMi are a thing. Is that true?]
[Si Handsome: What do you mean ‘are a thing’. XunMi has always been mine.]
Si YuFan wasn’t happy with this description. He wanted to hide XunMi away from the first time he saw her. Based on past experience, he could get whatever he wanted. Although XunMi was different than the things he wanted before, he will still gain her this time. She was already attached to him now, so she naturally can only be his.
His friend seemed to be left shock by his words. It took him awhile to respond.
[QuietlyHumming: Then I have to congratulate you. But what about the arranged marriage your mom had set up for you?]
[Si Handsome: I don’t know about it. What does that have to do with me?]
Yesterday, his mother told him to do his best and bring home her daughter-in-law quickly. She didn’t mention any arranged marriage. No, he didn’t know about it anyways so it really had nothing to do with him.
On the other side, magician QuietlyHumming twitched his lips while reading the chat box. That fellow Si YuFan really didn’t want to use his brain at all. He really deserved a beating.
But he didn’t dare beat him up. Because if this fellow began using his brain, then he would be able to scheme his opponent to death. QuietlyHumming expressed that he was stressed out from having such a genius childhood friend.
[QuietlyHumming: Alright, alright. When can we see sister-in-law then?]
[Si Handsome: En, I’ll ask XunMi.]
He closed his chatbox and went to find XunMi. It would be good to meet them. They can help her when she needed it. Si YuFan had already began making plans for XunMi’s future. He knew XunMi was different. But no matter what, he would help her. This feeling of doting and protectiveness seemed to be embedded in his soul. It was already a longterm habit. There was no way he could stop.
XunMi moved the dead python to the side while watching Little Nine’s reaction.
This spiritual energy bead could only be cultivated and refined by the individual. No one else could intervene in the process. XunMi created a simple protective field and fed him a DaHuan pill before leaving him alone.It would take some time to completely refine it for one’s own use. The process couldn’t be rushed.
“XunMi, XunMi! My friend wants to see you. Come with me.” Big master Si didn’t know anything about being patient. It was more important to be able to take her along.
As soon as XunMi stepped away from Little Nine, she was captured by Si Handsome. He waited for response with anticipation. She looked back at the door behind her. There shouldn’t be anyone coming to fight in the JueXian Pavilion storybook anytime soon. Seeing that her husband was so innocently adorable, she’ll agree to his request. “Okay, what time?” She needed to arrange her time in advance. As soon as Si YuFan got XunMi’s approval, he rushed back to his private messages with his childhood friend.
[Si Handsome: Quiet, what time?]
QuietlyHandsome, who had been busy fighting in a mission with his group was distracted by the sudden ding of his chat box. Immediately, he was attacked by the beast, causing him to be left with 25% blood. He sighed in his heart. He was just trying to fight a beast in peace. Why was it so hard? He let out his signature move and dropped the beast’s XP down 30% in one strike. Then, the rest of his group worked together to finish him. QuietlyHumming didn’t even have time to pick up the equipment rewards. He quickly opened his private messages box, didn’t even look who the message was from, and began typing out curses.
[QuietlyHumming: Which bastard betrayed me. I almost died!! Hurry up and compensate for mental distress!]
SiYuFan: . . .
[Si Handsome: Quiet, come here. I’m going to smack you.]
QuietlyHumming took a deep breath to calm down before looking at the messages. Within two seconds, he froze with his eyes wide.
[QuietlyHumming: hehehe. YuFan! My hand slipped just now. I typed the wrong words. Don’t take them too seriously]
[QuietlyHumming: Did you say you were going to bring sister-in-law to see us? Great, let’s do Saturday at 3?]
Today was Thursday. That would give him enough time to inform the others to come and watch.
