Noticing the girl unconsciously tightening the hem of her clothes, a knowing smile flashed across Lin Che's eyes. The imposing aura of a family head that he exuded without anger subsided, and his tone became as gentle and warm as the spring sun.

"No need to be nervous." His voice softened, carrying a reassuring power: "Now that you have become Daoist partners, you will be the closest of people to each other."

The Lin family is now small, without complicated formalities or the constraints of clan ties.

From now on, this will be your home. If you need anything, or if you have any thoughts, please feel free to speak up.

He was all alone in this life. As a child, he was sold into a wealthy family as a servant. It was only when he was studying with his family that he learned about the path to immortality and cultivation.

That's why, after he broke free from the shackles of the Demon Palace of Rebellion, he didn't know where to go for a while, and eventually came to the territory of Chuyang City.

But things will be different in the future. Now he has established a family and laid the foundation for an everlasting dynasty.

And soon, the family will have many descendants, and he will become the ancestor of the Lin family!

Wang Lingsu looked up at Lin Che's smiling eyes. The smile was like a spring breeze brushing across a lake, gentle and sincere, which made the tension in her heart dissipate a little.

She pursed her lips, a thought swirling in her mind, but ultimately, with a touch of reckless frankness, she blurted out, "Then...then you can't stop me from drinking anymore! That's my only request!"

She lowered her eyelashes somewhat shyly, but then secretly raised her eyelids to observe Lin Che's reaction.

Upon hearing this, Lin Che was taken aback at first, then a smile appeared in his eyes: "Alright, as you wish, I agree. Not only will I not stop you, but I will also find whatever spirit wine you want to drink in the future."

Seeing that the atmosphere had relaxed, Lin Che took the opportunity to chat with her about everyday things, asking about her life in the Wang family, her parents, siblings, and childhood anecdotes.

Wang Lingsu gradually relaxed and became more talkative. When she spoke of something she was happy about, her eyes crinkled and her smile was bright.

The initial awkwardness between the two melted away during their relaxed conversation.

Feeling the time was right, Lin Che stood up with a smile, his tone gentle and natural: "Let's go, I'll show you around this tribal land and help you get acquainted with your future home."

On previous visits with her father, Wang Lingsu was always led directly to the meeting place and had never had a chance to see the land properly. She did indeed harbor some curiosity and anticipation.

Upon reaching an open outdoor area, Lin Che's fingertips flashed with spiritual light, and a clear, crisp sword chant rang out. The top-grade magic sword, radiant with light, then hovered in front of the two of them.

He turned to the side, looking at her tenderly: "Come on up."

Wang Lingsu looked at the narrow blade of the sword and Lin Che, who had already stepped forward, and a hint of hesitation flashed across her face.

Lin Che understood, smiled slightly, and said nothing more.

His divine sense gently enveloped her like a warm current, and his pure true essence guided her, allowing her to land steadily on the flying sword, right in front of him.

He then naturally stretched out his arms and gently wrapped them around her slender waist from behind, holding her securely in his embrace. His deep voice sounded in her ear: "Don't be afraid, relax. I'm here. There will be no danger."

Wang Lingsu felt the warmth of the solid chest behind her and the strong yet gentle arms around her waist. Her cheeks flushed instantly, and her heart raced involuntarily.

She wasn't afraid of the flying technique at all; she was clearly embarrassed by this sudden intimate contact.

No matter how carefree she was, she was still a young girl, and had never been so close to a man before.

Lin Che was well aware of her shyness at that moment, and this action was intentional on his part.

Only by breaking down the initial awkwardness can we more quickly dissolve the unfamiliarity and barriers between each other.

Once she had regained her footing, Lin Che had a thought, and his flying sword suddenly soared into the air.

The sudden increase in height caused the girl, who was experiencing sword riding for the first time, to let out a short gasp. Her body instinctively leaned back, embedding herself even deeper into his embrace.

Lin Che pulled his arms closer, protecting her even more tightly, his deep voice tinged with laughter: "Hold on tight, and I'll show you the splendor of the Lin family."

After the initial panic subsided, a sense of security, firmly protected by him, quickly filled my heart.

Wang Lingsu gradually adapted and began to have the courage to look down and look down.

Below, the neat and uniform spiritual fields resemble a green brocade, dotted with the shimmering Shattered Star Lake and the satellite lakes scattered like beads, while distant mountains are shrouded in verdant green and shrouded in mist.

A gust of wind rushed towards her, making her dress and hair flutter, yet it brought a sense of freedom and joy, as if she were soaring through the sky, which broadened her mind.

The slight tension that had lingered was completely replaced by the excitement brought by this novel experience.

Is this what Foundation Establishment cultivators usually see? It's truly something to yearn for!

Feeling the person in his arms completely relax and even begin to look around curiously, Lin Che steadily controlled the flying sword while patiently explaining to her the division and functions of the four major areas of the family territory.

The flying sword finally drew a graceful arc, passing through the misty spiritual energy on the lake surface, and landed smoothly in the exquisite courtyard on the island in the middle of the lake.

"This is the heart of the Lin family, and also our residence. No outsiders may enter without my permission." Lin Che took her hand, stepped off the flying sword, and onto the path carefully paved with smooth, dark blue stone.

He led her through the courtyard, past the moon gate, and around the screen wall, introducing each section one by one: "This three-courtyard complex was designed and built by me personally, and it includes a pill-making room and a weapon-refining room."

The front yard is used for receiving guests and handling mundane affairs, the inner yard is where we live, and the back yard is even quieter, suitable for secluded cultivation. Each area has its own private meditation room. His voice was gentle, with a hint of barely perceptible pride.

Finally, he stopped in front of the main house at the northernmost end of the inner courtyard: "This is my residence. You can live here if you want. Of course, the houses in the back courtyard are all empty, and you can choose any one of them." He then pushed open the wooden door of the main house where he was staying.

Wang Lingsu, who was still immersed in the exquisite layout of the courtyard, felt her heart tremble as she heard these words, as if a deer was running wild.

She instantly grasped the deeper meaning behind those words, and her pretty face flushed crimson, the blush spreading all the way to her ears. She even unconsciously held her breath for a moment.

She lowered her eyes slightly, not daring to look directly at Lin Che, her voice barely audible, filled with obvious nervousness: "Yes... Your Majesty."

Seeing her shy appearance, Lin Che's smile deepened. He naturally reached out and gently took her slightly cool and soft hand in his warm palm, saying softly, "Now that we are Daoist partners, from now on, you can call me 'husband'."

"Husband...husband?" the girl called out, her voice trembling with uncertainty, as she looked up at him with her watery eyes.

Her shy and timid appearance stirred something in Lin Che's heart.

Without saying another word, he took her soft hand and led her into the room, heading straight for the innermost bedroom.

The door closed silently and slowly behind the two of them, shutting out everything from the outside world.

Before long, faint, suppressed groans could be heard intermittently.

As the indoor energy gently rippled and intertwined like spring water, an indescribable atmosphere permeated the air.

……

The next morning, a ray of golden sunlight shone through the exquisitely carved wooden window and quietly entered the bedroom, bathing the two sleeping in each other in a warm glow.

Lin Che slowly awoke from his deep sleep, and the tender memories of last night flooded his mind like a tide.

He looked down at Wang Lingsu, who was still nestled in his arms.

In the morning light, her honey-colored skin glowed with a soft luster, her eyelashes drooped quietly, and the blush on her cheeks still lingered from last night, like a newly blossoming peach blossom, delicate and charming.

Beneath the brocade quilt, the graceful, undulating curves further inspire contemplation.

He involuntarily gasped for breath, and a familiar throbbing surged deep within his body once more.

However, his gaze fell upon her peaceful sleeping face, which was filled with exhaustion, instantly calming him down.

He suppressed the surging thoughts, moved his body very gently, put on the clothes scattered to the side, and quietly walked out of the room.

Having just experienced sexual intercourse and having enjoyed a day and a night of pleasure, the young girl needs ample rest.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, coupled with the robust physique honed by the Nine Refinements Golden Body, Lin Che felt refreshed, energetic, and without any signs of fatigue.

He went straight into the study connected to the bedroom, sat cross-legged on the futon, calmed his mind and began to circulate the "Ten Thousand Beasts Paying Homage to the Ancestor Technique" to guide the true energy in his body through the circulation.

At the same time, he still kept a wisp of his divine sense on watchful eyes to the girl's every move.

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky and nearing noon that Wang Lingsu finally woke up.

Her long eyelashes fluttered a few times, and she opened her hazy eyes, her gaze filled with the languor and bewilderment of just waking up. She stared blankly at the completely unfamiliar bedroom, which was filled with the presence of another person.

Almost as soon as she opened her eyes, Lin Che sensed something, immediately awoke from his meditation, finished his practice, got up, and walked steadily into the bedroom.

When Wang Lingsu saw Lin Che appear at the door, she was first stunned, and then the embarrassing scenes from last night clearly surfaced in her mind.

Her cheeks instantly became burning hot again, and she instinctively tried to pull the quilt up to cover herself.

But in those bright eyes that looked at Lin Che, besides the lingering shyness, there was also a natural sense of closeness and affection.

Lin Che walked to the bedside, sat down naturally, and gently tucked the slightly messy strands of hair that had fallen across her forehead behind her ear: "Awake?"

His voice was deep and gentle: "Lie down a little longer, I'll go get you something to eat."

"Hmm..." Wang Lingsu buried half her face in the soft brocade quilt, only revealing a pair of watery eyes looking at him. Her response was soft and gentle, full of a girl's shyness.

After a moment's thought, Lin Che took out a smooth and warm jade slip from his storage bag and handed it to her.

"Now that you have joined the Lin family, you can cultivate our Lin family's core technique, the 'Ten Thousand Beasts Technique.' This is a method of controlling beasts, which is not restricted by spiritual root attributes. Since you have a water spiritual root, it will not be a problem for you to switch to cultivating this technique."

Wang Lingsu possesses a mid-grade water elemental root, but her aptitude is not top-tier.

However, Lin Che possessed the Holy Spirit Root and extraordinary bloodline, so the aptitude of their offspring would certainly not be mediocre, and Lin Che did not consider this aspect.

As for why he was only teaching the "Ten Thousand Beasts Technique" at this moment instead of the higher-level "Ten Thousand Beasts Paying Homage to the Ancestor Technique," it still stemmed from Lin Che's deep-rooted caution.

The Heavenly Rank cultivation technique is a method that directly leads to the realm of transcending tribulation and ascending to immortality. Not to mention in Chuyang City, even among the top forces in the Southern Region that have Nascent Soul cultivators in charge, it would definitely be a core inheritance, enough to attract countless bloody storms.

Given the Lin family's current state of being newly established and with a shallow foundation, any leak of information would inevitably lead to their annihilation.

Although they have become Daoist partners, they have only known each other for a short time, and he still needs time to observe and adjust to each other.

For Wang Lingsu, who is in the Qi Refining stage, the Myriad Beasts Technique is sufficient. After she establishes her foundation, their trust will be more solid, and it will not be too late to teach her more profound techniques.
