Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 537 - 553: Returning to Carefree Palace
The four women found Chu Linfeng's words quite odd—how could a piece of clothing have feelings? It was completely absurd, but none of them wanted to ask him why.
At this point, Chu Linfeng said, "I know you have doubts in your hearts, and I have doubts as well. This feeling is very vague, yet very real. I can't explain why, but now is not the time to delve into this matter. The Green Frost Sect needs everyone's joint effort to truly become a Major Sect."
"Lin Feng, rest assured, we will do our best to help you. However, now that you've recovered, you should logically accompany us back to our sect. Which sister are you bringing back this time?" Ye Suping asked.
This question was the most difficult for Chu Linfeng to face. If Meng Ji wanted to return to the Demon Realm, she simply couldn't and didn't have to worry about going back. Ye Suping could also be considered last. The hardest choice now was between Nie Ling'Er and Qing Ruming.
If he accompanied Qing Ruming to the Carefree Palace first, it would be disrespecting the Blood Evil Hall, and vice versa, accompanying Nie Ling'Er back to the Blood Evil Hall would mean disrespecting the Carefree Palace. However, he couldn't split himself, otherwise, it would be easily resolved.
The most critical issue was that Nie Ling'Er was still a virgin. Accompanying her back to the Blood Evil Hall might reveal this, and at that time, he wouldn't know how to explain to the Blood Evil Hall Master.
Seeing Chu Linfeng's troubled expression, the four women also felt conflicted. Ye Suping was the first to speak, "You accompany the other sisters back. I don't need you. I'll go back after you return!"
"I don't need it either. You know my situation, even if I want to go back, I might not be able to. Lin Feng, you should decide whether to accompany Ruming or Ling'Er!" Meng Ji said at this moment.
"Lin Feng, accompany Ruming back first. I'll wait for you to return before I go back. After all, we haven't gotten to that point yet. If the people in the sect know, it will be very disgraceful." Nie Ling'Er said, blushing.
"Haha, Ling'Er, are you eager to share a wedding chamber with Lin Feng? Among the four of us, you're the only one who hasn't shared a room with Lin Feng. Are you anxious?" Meng Ji immediately laughed.
"What nonsense are you spouting? You don't even know how to be shy! I'm not thinking that at all, stop speaking nonsense!" Nie Ling'Er immediately retorted.
After thinking for a while, Chu Linfeng said, "Alright, I'll accompany Ruming back this time. After we come back, I'll accompany Ling'Er back. I know this might be a bit unfair to Ling'Er, but I believe Ling'Er won't blame me for being biased."
Qing Ruming wanted to say something but held back. Chu Linfeng looked at her and said, "Ruming, tomorrow I'll accompany you back to the Carefree Palace. I'm also curious to see the Carefree Palace Master's reaction to my identity as a Divine Dragon."
Then Chu Linfeng and the women went to the hall to dine with Celestial Ape Yuwen Qingkuang and He Juan. He briefly explained that he would be accompanying the women back to their sects, and no one had any objections.
That night, Chu Linfeng didn't let Nie Ling'Er accompany him. Although among the four women, she was the only one who hadn't truly accompanied him yet, Chu Linfeng was not in a hurry. He needed to wait until he returned. Naturally, that night, it was Qing Ruming who was with him.
It was destined to be another sleepless night. The two battled through several rounds until just before dawn, when they finally stopped. Qing Ruming fell asleep contentedly in Chu Linfeng's arms.
The next morning, Chu Linfeng got up. He didn't sleep that night, and at his stage, he didn't need to sleep. He was contemplating his upcoming plans.
When Qing Ruming woke up, it was already broad daylight. After dressing, the two of them left the room. Chu Linfeng gave a few instructions to some key figures in the Green Frost Sect before leaving directly with Qing Ruming.
Flying in the air, Chu Linfeng said to Qing Ruming, "Ruming, would you like me to carry you while flying? Your speed is really slow. At this pace, it will take us until the afternoon to reach the Carefree Palace."
"I just want to fly slowly with you. I like this feeling. At this moment, you belong to me alone; there's no one to fight with me," Qing Ruming replied with a smile.
Chu Linfeng didn't say much more, and indeed, as he had said, the two arrived at the Carefree Palace only in the afternoon. The disciples guarding the sect greeted them with respect, "Welcome, son-in-law!" "Welcome, young lady!"
Chu Linfeng felt a bit gloomy. Why were these people calling him son-in-law instead of Sect Master Chu? This subtly lowered his status, but he couldn't say much about it.
They then proceeded to the main hall, where the Carefree Palace Master was sitting. Seeing Chu Linfeng and Qing Ruming enter, she forced a smile, though Chu Linfeng felt her smile was rather strained.
"Greetings, Master!" "Greetings, Palace Master!" the two said in succession to the Carefree Palace Master.
"Lin Feng, I'm relieved that you're safe. This time, your wedding banquet at the Green Frost Sect really stirred the entire Canglan Ancient Land. Everywhere, they're talking about you. No one expected you to be a descendant of the Dragon Pearl," said the Carefree Palace Master.
"I was also very surprised when I revealed my Dragon Body, but such occurrences won't happen in the future. Palace Master, you wouldn't have any bias against Lin Feng because of my dual identity, would you?" Chu Linfeng replied with a grin.
"Of course not. As Ruming is like a daughter to me, you are naturally a son-in-law of the Carefree Palace. However, since you are a sect leader, some formalities can be waived. You came specifically to bring Ruming back, right?" the Carefree Palace Master asked.
"Indeed, I brought Ruming back. From the look on your face, it seems you've encountered some troubling matter. I wonder if Lin Feng can help?" Chu Linfeng inquired.
The Carefree Palace Master smiled, "Getting help from Lin Feng would be much appreciated, but I'm afraid you might also be powerless in this matter. I blame myself for indulging him too much, leading to the current situation."
"Master, what exactly happened? Is it Brother Yu?" Qing Ruming immediately asked.
"Yes, Yu'Er has been afflicted with a rare Poisonous Gu. Even I can only suppress it for a while by transmitting Star Power daily. However, the Poisonous Gu is worsening, and now it requires power input every three hours," explained the Carefree Palace Master helplessly.
"What kind of Poisonous Gu has Young Master Feiyu contracted? Is it the Celestial Silkworm Gu? If it is, Lin Feng might have a way to remove it," said Chu Linfeng.
"You can really remove the Celestial Silkworm Gu? Yu'Er is indeed afflicted with this Gu. If you can remove it from Yu'Er, our Carefree Palace will greatly reward you!" promised the Carefree Palace Master.
"There's no need for such formality. I am, after all, the son-in-law of the Carefree Palace. Let's go and see Feiyu's current condition, hoping it's not too late to save him. If the Sub-Gu has reached his heart, then I'm afraid I'm also powerless!" asserted Chu Linfeng.
Then, the three of them entered a secret chamber where a pale, thin young man lay groaning on the ground. Seeing this young man, Chu Linfeng was also taken aback; he never expected the once elegant Young Master Feiyu would become like this... (Late getting up, will continue later)
