Su Meiyao said: "My skills can be cultivated at any time. You should return to your residence and begin your training there. When the time comes, I will also teach you alchemy and medicine preparation"

Upon arriving in the courtyard, Shen Xiang, without saying a word, took the delicate and boneless hand of Xue Xianxian and quickly left his father's line of sight, as if they were sneaking away to do something mischievous like they did in their childhood

This girl is my fiancée!" Shen Xiang shouted excitedly in his heart

Tianhu Garden, as the name suggests, is the residence of Shen Tianhu. It is quite normal for someone of Shen family's prominent status to have a large estate.

Xue Xianxian smiled lightly, a charming dimple appeared on her cheek accompanied by an enchanting blush, causing Shen Xiang to be momentarily lost in thought again

The process of climbing the cliff left Shen Xiang feeling quite frustrated, as he could see nothing in the black, suffocating atmosphere, which increased the difficulty.

After Shen Tianhu finished speaking, he smiled and looked out the window. Shen Xiang also turned his head to look, and he saw a tall and graceful woman walking towards them from outside the courtyard

After Shen Xiang climbed up, he set foot on the road home

Shen Xiang chuckled and hurriedly ran out of the study

Shen Xiang felt somewhat dejected, yet he was also very fond of Xue Xianxian. During his childhood, after the family determined that Shen Xiang did not possess a spiritual vein, he had few companions to play with, so he was quite happy to be with Xue Xianxian.

"Sisters, when will you be able to teach me the divine and magical skills?" Shen Xiang asked anxiously, as he was very curious about those divine and magical skills.

Xue Xianxian merely showed a hint of shyness and softly said: "Little Xiang Ge, my father and I passed by Wo Hu City just to come and see you, so we won't stay long"

This young girl is the pride of the Xue family, Xue Xianxian

"Your body is too weak; you are not yet capable of practicing my magical arts." The cold voice of Bai Youyou echoed.

Shen Xiang licked his lips and smiled, saying, "This little girl has really grown up a lot."

Seeing Shen Xiang so confident, Xue Xianxian was also very pleased. She stood on her tiptoes, kissed Shen Xiang's lips, then lowered her head, blushing as she said: "Little Xiang Ge, you must work hard. I am worried that my family will stop at nothing to tear us apart."

Shen Xiang felt a surge of joy in his heart and began to run swiftly

"Xianxian, how long do you plan to stay at the Shen family?" Shen Xiang chuckled as he gently stroked the adorable dimples on Xianxian's face.

Nanguo, the Sleeping Tiger City in the south, has a population of one million. It is a prosperous and vast city, home to the renowned martial arts family of Nanguo, the Shen family.

In her childhood, Xue Xianxian came to Wohu City seeking medical treatment due to a strange illness. At that time, her body was very weak, and she was small and thin. She was often bullied by people in both the Shen and Xue families. Only Shen Xiang took good care of her, often playing and joking with her. That period brought her much happiness, and Shen Xiang frequently encouraged her to bravely fight against her illness, even giving her a few precious medicinal pills.

"Father... are you referring to Xue Xianxian?" Shen Xiang inquired. She is a talented young woman from the Xue family, who lived at the Shen residence for a period during her childhood. At that time, Shen Xiang played with her every day, and the two got along very well, subsequently establishing a marriage pact.

Shen Xiang smiled broadly, reached out to touch Xue Xianxian's elegantly plain face, and said: "Xianxian, when you go to the Yao family, just say you have a fiancé. If he doesn't accept it, let him come and challenge me"

The Shen family is powerful enough to rival a nation, being the most formidable force within the Wohu City. The Shen Family Manor alone covers thousands of acres, featuring numerous courtyards and gardens, with both mountains and water. Even if someone intends to infiltrate the Shen family, they would likely get lost within its grounds

After speaking, Xue Xianxian lightly swept away, darting out of the courtyard like a swallow, her movements graceful, while Shen Xiang stood there in a daze, his mind repeatedly replaying the moment when Xue Xianxian kissed his lips

Shen Tianhu let out a hearty laugh, patted Shen Xiang on the shoulder, and said: "You all take your time to catch up."

All of this was etched in Xue Xianxian's heart. Even though she knew that Shen Xiang had no spiritual veins and no future, she had decided to marry Shen Xiang

Shen Xiang furrowed his brow, and a beautifully carved little girl suddenly appeared in his mind, a memory from when he was about five or six years old

The voice is light and melodious, captivating to the soul. Shen Xiang admits that although this young girl is in her tender years, both her temperament and appearance can rival the two beauties within his ring, not to mention that this girl has not yet fully developed

The young woman had long hair cascading over her shoulders, dressed entirely in white, adorned with a golden hair ornament that shimmered with light. Upon seeing her attire, which resembled that of a celestial being, Shen Xiang couldn't help but be captivated and momentarily lost in thought. The girl appeared to be merely fourteen or fifteen years old, with skin whiter than snow and a stunningly beautiful face that was difficult to gaze upon directly

Shen Tianhu nodded: "That's right, that little girl is inside the villa. She just arrived after you left, and she has been clamoring to see you."

The Shen family has a history spanning thousands of years, and its strength remains formidable to this day. The rich heritage and the ability to stand firm for millennia serve as a testament to the power of the Shen family

"Father, I am back!" As soon as Shen Xiang returned, he hurried to the study, knowing that his father was there

He cannot see the pale white and Su Meiyao inside the ring, but he can sense their presence

Shen Tianhu chuckled and said: "You little rascal have finally returned. Do you know that a light beauty has been waiting for you? Do you still remember the young girl from the Xue family? She is your little wife."

"Xiao Xiang, my family originally wanted me to break off the engagement with you, but I disagreed. Therefore, they arranged for me and my father to meet that genius alchemist from the Yao family." Xue Xianxian noticed the change in Shen Xiang's expression and chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, I would rather die than marry that guy from the Yao family; I've heard he is very bad."

Shen Xiang brought a little fairy to his residence, which made many of the Shen family disciples envious along the way

If it were in the past, Shen Xiang would have felt some unease in his heart, as he did not possess a spiritual vein. But now he has the Yin-Yang Divine Vein! As long as he is given time, reaching the pinnacle of martial arts is by no means a mere fantasy

Shen Xiang swallowed hard and chuckled, "Indeed, a girl transforms remarkably as she grows! The little girl from back then has surprisingly turned into a little fairy."

Xue Xianxian possessed the strength of the sixth level of the Mortal Martial Realm at the age of fourteen or fifteen, truly a genius among geniuses in the entire Southern Martial Kingdom. Additionally, within the Yao family, there is a prodigy who can refine elixirs at the age of sixteen. In the eyes of many, they are indeed the most suitable pair.

The young girl looked through the window and saw Shen Xiang, her exquisitely beautiful face filled with joy, and she exclaimed: "Little Xiang Ge!"

Shen Xiang remains calm; he possesses the Yin-Yang divine veins and is guided in his cultivation by two formidable women of unknown origin. He is confident that he will surpass the youngest genius alchemist in a short period of time

After a grueling climb that lasted a day and a night, Shen Xiang finally made it to the top. Initially, he thought this task would be nearly impossible, but due to the presence of the divine veins, he absorbed a significant amount of spiritual energy during the ascent, which alleviated his fatigue and invigorated him, making him feel energetic and vigorous at every moment
