566: The struggle between Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Under the rapid speed of Yang Lingchen and Cang Qingyue, the two finally arrived at the exit of the East Saint Secret Realm.

To their surprise, a large crowd had actually gathered at the exit of the East Saint Secret Realm at this time.

"What's going on? Haven't they gone out yet?"

Cang Qingyue's willow-like brows furrowed slightly, a hint of confusion appearing on her face. Her delicate features looked exceptionally moving under the sunlight, and her light blue dress fluttered in the wind, making her look like a Fairy descending to the mortal world.

"We'll know once we go over and ask."

After Yang Lingchen finished speaking, he quickly flew towards a man in black.

His figure was vigorous, his black long robe snapping in the wind, and his eyes held a sense of determination and curiosity.

"Brother, why haven't you gone out yet?" Yang Lingchen asked politely.

"Go out? What's the rush? Doesn't the exit only open tomorrow?"

The man in black spoke.

He glanced at Yang Lingchen, a trace of confusion flashing in his eyes.

"You mean... tomorrow is the day the Secret Realm exit opens?"

Yang Lingchen had a look of surprise on his face. He had originally thought he had missed the time the exit opened, but he didn't expect there to still be one day left.

"Otherwise? You couldn't have mixed up the time, could you?" the man in black said, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly as if mocking Yang Lingchen's confusion.

"I've been training during this period, so I got the time mixed up."

Hearing the man in black's answer, Yang Lingchen gave an embarrassed smile, but his heart was exceptionally excited. This meant that while he had stayed in the Yin Yang Harmonious Union Cave for two hundred years, only ten days had passed in reality.

This time difference gave him an incomparable surprise and also filled him with anticipation for his future path of cultivation.

"This is too incredible."

Cang Qingyue's eyes were also filled with disbelief. Her beautiful eyes were wide open, and her cherry-like mouth was slightly parted, looking exceptionally cute.

Just then, Mu Qingcheng's voice sounded from behind Yang Lingchen: "Lingchen, why did you only just arrive? You didn't even reply to my Sound Transmission."

Mu Qingcheng's voice was crisp and pleasant, yet it carried a hint of reproach. Dressed in pink clothes, she looked like a peach blossom in full bloom in spring, delicate and moving.

"Qingcheng, I'm sorry. During this time, I was trapped in a mysterious space, so I didn't receive any of your Sound Transmissions."

Yang Lingchen said apologetically. His gaze was full of guilt, fearing that Mu Qingcheng would be angry because of this.

"What is your relationship with her?"

Seeing Cang Qingyue holding Yang Lingchen's arm, Mu Qingcheng's face instantly turned cold. Her gaze became sharp, staring straight at Yang Lingchen and Cang Qingyue, an inexplicable anger rising in her heart.

"Can't you tell?"

Cang Qingyue raised an eyebrow and looked coldly at Mu Qingcheng, her hands still tightly holding Yang Lingchen's arm.

Her proud expression seemed to be declaring her sovereignty to Mu Qingcheng, her body emitting an innate princess-like temperament.

"You shameless thing, did I ask you?"

Mu Qingcheng snorted coldly, not backing down at all, and directly retorted. Her face was gloomy, and her eyes flickered with the light of anger.

"bitch, who are you calling shameless?"

Cang Qingyue's pretty face turned cold, looking as if she would strike at any moment. If Yang Lingchen hadn't been holding her, she would have likely already started a fight.

A powerful Aura surged from her body, and the surrounding air seemed to become heavy.

"I'm talking about you, you shameless bitch, so what?"

Mu Qingcheng was not to be outdone either, looking coldly at the other party, her hands tightly clenched into fists, ready to meet Cang Qingyue's attack at any time.

"Alright, stop arguing." Yang Lingchen had a helpless look on his face and hurriedly stepped into the middle to prevent a conflict from breaking out between the two.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and he felt a wave of annoyance in his heart.

"Bastard, what exactly is your relationship with her?"

Mu Qingcheng's gaze was clearly unfriendly as she looked coldly at Yang Lingchen.

Her heart was full of grievance and confusion, not understanding why Yang Lingchen would be so intimate with Cang Qingyue.

"He is my man." Cang Qingyue's lips curled slightly as she directly took over the conversation.

A smug smile was plastered on her face, as if she was flaunting her victory to Mu Qingcheng.

"Can you stop picking fights?" Yang Lingchen's brow furrowed, and his face clearly darkened.

He knew Cang Qingyue was a princess and had a relatively strong personality, but since she had become his woman, she had to behave herself. Otherwise, if the harem was turned upside down, he wouldn't be able to Cultivate in peace.

"Lingchen, what do you mean? Are you planning to use me and then kick me away?" Cang Qingyue said in an unfriendly tone, her eyes shimmering with tears as she felt incredibly wronged.

"I have no intention of kicking you away." Yang Lingchen had a serious face and directly grabbed the hands of Cang Qingyue and Mu Qingcheng, saying, "I have something to say to you both."

His voice was low and powerful, brook no doubt.

After speaking, he pulled Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue and flew towards the distance.

His figure traced an arc in the sky and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

There was still one day before the East Saint Secret Realm opened, and Yang Lingchen intended to use this time to properly nurture his feelings with the two women.

He knew that both women had deep feelings for him, and it was only because of their mutual pride and jealousy that a conflict had arisen.

Therefore, he had to resolve this problem so that they could get along harmoniously.

Not long after, the three of them arrived at a hidden canyon, and Yang Lingchen directly took the two women into the secret treasure space.

"Since you are both here today, I'll be clear with you. I have many other women. If you really want to be with me, I hope you can be harmonious and not make things difficult for me, okay?" Yang Lingchen said seriously.

At this moment, he completely released his Aura.

His gaze was firm, and a powerful pressure radiated from his body, causing both Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue to feel a wave of alarm.

Because Yang Lingchen knew that if he couldn't suppress these two women today, his harem would never know peace in the future; it would definitely be turned upside down by them.

After all, one was a princess and the other was a Sect Saintess; neither was easy to deal with.

"Bastard! Are you trying to give us a show of authority?"

Cang Qingyue's pretty face turned cold as she spoke. Her eyes were full of anger, and her hands were tightly clenched into fists.

"It's not a show of authority, but being honest with you and giving you a choice," Yang Lingchen said in a deep voice.

His gaze was fixed tightly on Cang Qingyue and Mu Qingcheng.

"I don't care how many women you have, but This Princess wants to be the first wife," Cang Qingyue said coldly. She puffed out her chest, looking high and mighty.

"On what basis do you get to be the first wife?" Mu Qingcheng immediately became unhappy upon hearing this.

Her face turned flush red, and her eyes flickered with the light of anger.

"On the basis that I am bigger than you here." Cang Qingyue puffed out her full chest.

"You...!" Mu Qingcheng's face turned livid from the retort.

Although she wasn't small either, there was still a bit of a gap compared to Cang Qingyue.

"Alright, stop arguing. The leader has already been chosen."

Yang Lingchen said in a deep voice. His voice echoed within the secret treasure space, causing both women to quiet down.

"Who?" Cang Qingyue and Mu Qingcheng said in unison.

Their gazes were both fixed tightly on Yang Lingchen, waiting for his answer.

"Your man, me, is the leader."

Yang Lingchen said in a serious tone, "Alright, don't argue anymore in the future. We are all one family." His gaze was full of determination and majesty, making the two women not dare to argue further.

Afterward, he set up a barbecue grill and began making delicious food.

He skillfully handled various ingredients, his movements flowing like water, and before long, an enticing aroma permeated the air.

Seeing Yang Lingchen's attitude was so firm, the two women didn't dare to say much more.

After all, they didn't want to become unruly women and leave a bad impression on Yang Lingchen.

Subsequently, the two women also helped Yang Lingchen from the side, acting as his assistants.

Their movements were somewhat unfamiliar, but they were full of sincerity.

After the delicious food was ready, the three sat together enjoying fine wine and chatting. The moonlight spilled over them, reflecting a warm scene.

"Actually, I know you both truly treat me well, and I will also truly treat each of you well," Yang Lingchen said softly, raising his wine glass.

"Hmph, at least you still have a bit of a conscience," Cang Qingyue gave him a look and said coquettishly.

"As long as you don't bully us in the future, we'll be satisfied." Mu Qingcheng smiled slightly, her eyes shimmering with tender light.

The three chatted for a long time, from past experiences to future dreams, and their hearts grew closer and closer... The next morning.

The sunlight spilled through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground, forming patches of light. The three walked out of the secret treasure space.

After a night of being together and communicating, the relationship between Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue had also grown much closer.

They had even secretly formed an alliance to deal with Yang Lingchen's other women.

After all, they also knew that Yang Lingchen was very outstanding and might have many women around him. If they didn't form an alliance, they might become more and more marginalized in the future.

Yang Lingchen pulled one in each hand and flew quickly towards the direction of the exit. There was only one hour left before the exit opened, and they had to rush back as soon as possible. His figure sped through the air, bringing with it a gust of wind.

When the three arrived at the exit of the East Saint Secret Realm, they immediately caught everyone's attention. Everyone's gazes were cast towards them, full of surprise and curiosity.

"Who is that guy? He's actually holding both Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue at the same time."

A young man said in surprise, his mouth open so wide it could almost fit an egg.

"I know, that fellow is named Lingchen. He is the only male Disciple of Xuan Yin Palace. His ability to challenge those at higher levels is very terrifying. He previously defeated Mu Tiance on the East Saint City Challenge Stage when his cultivation level was only at the sixth layer of the Myriad Illusions Realm."

Another man said, his eyes full of admiration.

"For real?" The people nearby all expressed doubt.

"Of course it's real, many people were watching at the time!" the man said firmly.

"Even if his ability to challenge higher levels is strong, there's no reason for both Cang Qingyue and Mu Qingcheng to take a fancy to him!" someone said in confusion.

"I'm curious about that too. I guess the kid has a sweet tongue, plus he's quite handsome," a woman said, her eyes shimmering with envy.

"Sigh! I didn't expect heavenly favored daughters like Cang Qingyue and Mu Qingcheng to have such shallow vision. They didn't even notice an outstanding man like me," a self-important man said, shaking his head and sighing.

For a time, everyone was discussing animatedly, their eyes full of disbelief.

After all, in the Eastern Region and even the entire Central State, Cang Qingyue and Mu Qingcheng were in the ranks of top-tier beauties. Now, these two top-tier beauties had actually chosen the same man, which made everyone envious.

"Haha, Brother Ling, you've finally come. We thought you got lost."

Just then, Tan Little Fatty and Mu Tiance walked over. Seeing Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue beside Yang Lingchen, both of their eyes showed looks of envy.

"Something came up and delayed me for a bit. Fortunately, I didn't miss the time for the exit to open," Yang Lingchen said with a smile. His smile was bright and sunny, making people feel incredibly warm.

"Hello, two sisters-in-law."

Mu Tiance and Tan Little Fatty politely greeted Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue. Their attitude was respectful, but their eyes flickered with curiosity.

"Mm!" Mu Qingcheng and Cang Qingyue nodded slightly and then walked to the side. After all, with several men chatting, they didn't want to get involved.

"Brother Ling, these two sisters-in-law are not simple! How did you win them over?"

Tan Little Fatty asked curiously. His chubby face was full of curiosity, and his small eyes blinked repeatedly.

"Yeah! What tricks did you use? Teach us a few moves!"

Mu Tiance spoke up, his gaze full of expectation, hoping Yang Lingchen could share his secrets.

"My looks and character are the biggest tricks. What woman can resist this damn charm of mine?" Yang Lingchen chuckled, his face brimming with a confident smile.

"Looks? Speaking of looks alone, can you even compare to me?"

Mu Tiance brushed his bangs aside, revealing his handsome face. His face was full of pride, believing his own looks were unrivaled.

"That's right! Brother Ling, to be honest, in terms of looks, you really can't compare to Brother Mu," Tan Little Fatty said with a laugh. His laughter was hearty and made people feel very friendly.

"I'm handsome, while Brother Mu is beautiful. How can that be the same?"

Yang Lingchen said with a laugh. His eyes were full of teasing, leaving Mu Tiance speechless.

"What you said seems to make sense. With Brother Mu's looks, if he dressed as a woman, he'd probably charm a whole crowd of men to death."

Tan Little Fatty said with a chuckle. His smile grew even brighter, as if he had already seen that scene.

"Damn it, are you two ever going to finish? This Young Master is a man."

Mu Tiance said crossly. His face turned slightly red, clearly annoyed by the teasing from Yang Lingchen and Tan Little Fatty.

The group thus waited for the opening of the East Saint Secret Realm exit while talking and laughing.
