The Situ Clan, once hidden from the world, did not get involved in the recent conflicts within the ancient martial arts realm for one simple reason—they were no longer what they used to be. With Elder Situ’s return, the hidden Situ Clan had risen to a level few could rival. Even formidable clans like the Qianling were no match for them. Who, then, would dare provoke such power?
After defeating the demon king, Xiao Yufan returned to the hidden Situ Clan and chose not to interfere with the shifting balance of power among the various factions.
Survival of the fittest remained an unshakable truth in the martial arts world. Xiao Yufan had no intention of disrupting this balance. For the hidden ancient martial arts world, letting things unfold naturally might not be a bad thing after all.
Inside a secluded villa, Xiao Yufan looked at the smiling faces of his women and gently closed his eyes. Finally, he could truly savor this moment of peace.
“Honey, when are you finally going to take in Hua Yun and Hua Yue?” one of them asked.
Xiao Yufan had barely shut his eyes when he caught a faint, familiar fragrance. Without opening his eyes, he knew exactly who it was—after all, he had memorized every detail of his women’s unique scents.
“Is my Xian’er so eager for me to take them in?” he whispered.
Feeling her warm breath against his ear, Xiao Yufan playfully flipped her over, pinning her beneath him. She giggled, and the other women, now accustomed to such moments, weren’t surprised.
“We all know how Hua Yun and Hua Yue feel. They spend all their time with us. If you don’t take them in soon, it’ll just get awkward,” she teased with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Her words stirred something in Xiao Yufan, but the thought of Ying’er and Yi Han’s infamous pinches made him hesitate.
“Giggles, don’t worry. After Ru’er and Liu Hua’s ‘guidance,’ I’m sure Yi Han and the others won’t dare punish you anymore!”
Feeling his hesitation, Huangpu Xian playfully glared at him. If he were really that afraid of them, they wouldn’t have so many sisters by now.
“Disciplinary action? I’ll punish you right here, right now!”
With a wicked grin, his hands began to wander, but she quickly wriggled free. With all the sisters watching, she wouldn’t let this lecher get his way so easily.
Besides, after last night’s marathon session, she was already a little afraid of his relentless stamina. Maybe next time, she should invite a few more sisters—show this playboy that they weren’t pushovers.
If Xiao Yufan had known what she was thinking, he’d have swept her into a passionate kiss. What a wonderful wife—she was practically handing him the perfect excuse for a night of shared bliss.
As she darted into the group of women, he felt a pang of disappointment—until Yan Yan blew him a kiss. Looks like having too many women wasn’t always a good thing. If they united against him, his blissful married life might be in serious trouble.
Even Lan Yue, Rou’er, Tian Xuan, and Meng Lu were picking up some rather bold tendencies. It was a serious situation indeed.
“Honey, someone’s here to see you!”
Seeing Yingluo approach, Xiao Yufan’s heart leapt. It seemed someone had finally taken pity on him. But before he could pull her into his arms, a familiar figure appeared at the door.
“Damn it, what is she doing here?”
Xiao Yufan froze, already imagining the sharp fingers of Ying’er and Yi Han ready to pinch his soft spots.
“Why do you always avoid me? I’m not a tiger, you know—I won’t eat you!”
Yan Wanting stared at the beautiful women surrounding him, stunned. No wonder he had been avoiding her—this man had been living in a paradise of beauty all along.
“Big sister, can I say that you’re scarier than a tiger?”
Xiao Yufan had no idea what he had done to earn the wrath of this goddess, but ever since returning from the mysterious realm, Yan Wanting had been trying to get close to him. He had avoided her several times before, but now she had tracked him down.
“Really? Do I seem that scary to you?”
Expecting a tantrum, Xiao Yufan was surprised when she instead gave him a tender, pitiful look. Instantly, he felt the icy glares from his women.
This woman!
He wanted to strip her bare and teach her a lesson. Wasn’t she deliberately making things hard for him?
“Alright, alright! If you have something to say, just say it! Big sister, I admit I was wrong!”
“Oh, I want to live here!” Yan Wanting changed her tone faster than turning a page. Before Xiao Yufan could react, she had already rushed over to talk warmly with Cheng Ying and Yu Xuan.
“Heaven help me—just take this little demon in already!”
Xiao Yufan sighed dramatically. If he couldn’t enjoy a night of shared intimacy today, he’d just have to take this little temptress instead. After all, when a woman offered herself so willingly, how could he possibly refuse?
…
Three years later, the hidden martial arts world had returned to its former peace. The hidden Situ Clan had risen to become a superpower, surpassing even the Qing Ling and Gu Ling clans.
Though the Guardian Temple had undergone major changes, its influence remained largely intact. The Di Sha Palace had become the most powerful sect, a fact everyone knew was thanks to Xiao Yufan.
Though Xiao Yufan had not appeared publicly in the hidden martial arts world for three years, many experts understood that this near-mythical figure had simply chosen not to meddle in worldly affairs, silently protecting the entire Chinese martial arts world from the shadows…
