289: Second uncle's love comes as it comes

On the flying boat, speeding towards the Eastern Barrens.

"Little Tian, thank you so much today!"

Second Uncle Hua Bei specifically sought out Long Aotian for a private chat.

He genuinely felt that only Long Aotian could give him, his Second Uncle, such strong confidence and reliance.

As for his own father, Hua Jinzhuan?

Clearly, he was still too low-class!

The Nanzhou Sacred Fire Sect was, after all, a sub-continental level giant cultivation force, and Huo Ruier was the daughter of the Holy Fire Sect's Sect Master.

Just thinking about Huo Ruier's terrifying background and Huo Keng's immense power and status made Hua Bei's legs tremble.

Fortunately, he had a good Nephew, and that trumped everything!

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

In fact, Long Aotian had already guessed some things, but guessing was just guessing. He still wanted his Second Uncle to tell him more accurately.

"Uh, how should I put this? It's about me and your Second Aunt..."

"Second Aunt?"

Long Aotian smirked mischievously, "Second Uncle, when did I get a Second Aunt? You're not talking about Huo Ruier, are you? Did you sleep with the Southern Continent's most beautiful woman?"

"Cough, cough... You're so smart, Little Tian. I knew nothing could be hidden from you."

"..."

Long Aotian couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He and Feng Zixian had stayed in the Secret Realm for three years, and with the time acceleration of the Sixth Layer Space World, it was several centuries. If he couldn't tell, wouldn't that mean he'd wasted his time?

Huo Ruier's current state was exactly like his Empress Adult's back then—after tasting the forbidden fruit, she couldn't help but cling to him every day, craving him.

Seeing the tender expression on Huo Ruier's face when she looked at his Second Uncle, he knew these two definitely had something going on. Xian'er used to look at him with those same eyes, and still did.

"Second Uncle, you're an old ox eating young grass."

Long Aotian couldn't help but laugh, "Huo Ruier is at most not even twenty, and you're already in your thirties. Well, I'm about to get married. If you, Second Uncle, aren't married yet, that would be too embarrassing for your Nephew.

Leave this matter to your Nephew, me. Your Nephew will make the decision for you this once! Don't be afraid of Huo Keng. I guarantee he'll be two hundred thousand percent willing to marry Huo Ruier to you!"

"Hehe, then thank you, Little Tian!"

Hua Bei couldn't help but smile foolishly in happiness.

"I'm quite curious, Second Uncle, how did you manage to win over the little princess of the Southern Continent?"

"Hehe!"

Hua Bei again let out a foolish, happy laugh, then excitedly said, "Actually, your Second Uncle, I, had my eye on her back at Sky Battle City. It's just that at the time, I felt I had no chance, so I could only bury my feelings for her deep in my heart..."

"..."

Of course he had to hide it in his heart!

That was the little princess of the Southern Continent!

The most beautiful woman in the Southern Continent, and the most stunning flower!

Although she couldn't compare to Ao Jingtain and Feng Zixian, who were so extraordinary and breathtaking to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Huo Ruier would easily score ninety-five or above out of a hundred.

And his Second Uncle?

His handsomeness wasn't bad either, he could score ninety-five. The Hua Family members all had pretty high Appearance. His mother and several aunts were all stunning beauties who could topple kingdoms in the Imperial City. There was no reason for his uncles to be ugly.

The key was that Second Uncle Hua Family's background wasn't great!

If it weren't for his, Long Aotian's, sudden powerful rise in the Eastern Barrens, which of those giant cultivation forces wouldn't despise them?

Even the Central Continent Ye Clan had abandoned the Eternal Leaf Dynasty!

...But then your mother secretly came out of the Teleportation Law Dao Mountain and took me in to stay for three hundred years.

Speaking of which, You kid, you're not very fair. You give special treatment to the Dragon Clan, but you don't think about giving your maternal grandfather's Hua Family some special treatment?"

As he spoke, Hua Bei couldn't help but teasingly scold Long Aotian. This kid was too biased.

"..."

Long Aotian subtly flinched.

His mother went out and brought his Second Uncle in to stay for over three hundred years?

How did he not know?

Well, he and Feng Zixian were in seclusion in the Sixth Layer Space World, with no time to bother with outside matters. Not to mention, there were various protective and killing arrays outside, which his father and grandfather knew how to use. His father must have told his mother.

No wonder, when he saw Hua Bei's cultivation Realm Breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage, he felt like something was off.

Now, thinking about it, he understood.

When Hua Bei entered the Tribulation Dao Secret Realm, his cultivation had also not reached the Mahayana Realm. If he hadn't gone to the Teleportation Law Dao Mountain, it would have been impossible for him to Breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage so quickly.

His mother, she wouldn't blame him for not giving the Hua Family special treatment, would she?
