Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder - Chapter 398 - 398: Ch 398 - My Marriage to Yino Has Nothing to Do with You

The moment she saw Yino bring out the little fox, Xinyao’s suspended heart finally died.

Yino was thick skinned, directly spouting nonsense with a straight face.

Xinyao really wanted to jump up and loudly complain about the heaven defying plot holes in this.

But the problem was, she had just denied her identity as the Hundred Spirits Pavilion master to Yino.

If Xinyao recognized Jinyue now, it would be equivalent to exposing her identity as the Hundred Spirits Pavilion master.

No choice. No matter how absurd Xinyao felt inside, she could only seriously play along with Yino’s nonsense on the surface.

“H… her name was Yuebai…”

As she said this, Xinyao couldn’t help but recall the conversation she’d had with Yino at Hundred Spirits Pavilion.

This damn brat, how could he lie so smoothly without blushing or his heart racing!

He was really treating me like a complete fool!

“Yeah, her name is Yuebai. How about it, isn’t she cute?”

Yino pinched the red fox’s little round face, showing her off to his aunt with obvious affection.

“Your fox not only has red fur, but also has the same innate charming physique as the Pleasure Witch… could there really be such a coincidence in this world?”

Xinyao’s lips twitched slightly. Unable to speak directly due to her identity, she still expressed her suspicion with a strained expression.

But after her words fell, Yino just smiled without speaking. He picked up the little fox and casually revealed the red tattoo mark on the back of his hand.

“No matter what, the contract is real.”

“Even if she really is the legendary Pleasure Witch, after signing a contract with me, wouldn’t I still be the one taking advantage of her?”

Yino said this as if joking, but actually every sentence was explaining to Xinyao.

Xinyao wasn’t stupid. As a demon, she understood all too well what the red curse mark on Yino’s hand meant.

What made Xinyao feel strange was that she had been suspicious at Hundred Spirits Pavilion about whether Jinyue following Yino might have ulterior motives. She never expected that the mighty Pleasure Witch Jinyue would actually not mind signing a spirit contract with Yino?

No way… What exactly happened between them?

How did Yino convince Jinyue to become his spirit pet?

Xinyao was unable to understand her nephew anymore.

“That… that’s true.”

“So aunty, you see, this way I don’t need a seal and can return to Luo City, right?”

“It… it seems like that’s right…”

Xinyao was left dazed by his explanation. Thinking carefully, she couldn’t find any flaws, but she always felt like her brain had been twisted around by Yino.

She realized the topic had been diverted and quickly raised her hand to stop him.

“Stop! Stop for a moment! Even if this fox can help you use illusions to keep secrets, didn’t you just casually mention that you’re going back to Luo City next?”

“That’s right.”

“But you were doing fine at Wuji Sect. Why do you suddenly want to return to Luo City? Don’t you know that going home with your current identity would just cause trouble?”

Xinyao raised her eyebrows. Just from chatting with Yino for this short while, she already felt her brain was about to overheat.

On the other hand, Yino remained calm:

“Yeah, I’ve caused so much trouble for the family all these years. I thought I’d make the elders happy for once.”

“Yino, don’t you understand? Those old men won’t be happy because you come home!”

“But what if I bring home a beautiful fiancée?”

As soon as these words came out, although Yino said them lightly, the girl sitting across from him on the sofa was completely petrified.

She didn’t react for a long time, just staring straight at Yino’s face with wide eyes.

Seeing the atmosphere freeze, Yino felt a bit awkward and glanced toward the living room door.

In just a moment, Yuyan who had already tidied her appearance and carried herself with dignified elegance appeared at the living room entrance.

“Yuyan’s reputation is big enough, right?”

“Whether in talent, qualifications, or immortal sect reputation, Senior Yuyan is definitely the beloved daughter of heaven that everyone in today’s cultivation world pursues.”

“If I can bring Senior home this time and casually discuss marriage, the old men in the mansion will definitely be very happy. This way I can not only bring honor to the He family, but also smoothly return to develop the family business.”

Speaking to this point, although Yino’s thoughts were clear and full of joy, Xinyao still remained frozen and speechless.

She fell completely silent.

At this moment, Xinyao looked at Yino, then at the woman standing behind listening.

“This… this won’t work…”

The girl’s voice became much smaller. She didn’t know how to object, but instinctively stammered and shook her head.

Just then, Yuyan, who had been waiting by the door also came over to sit.

Honestly, Yuyan’s mood was also very strange right now.

She didn’t know what to say and just sat beside them waiting for Yino’s eye signals.

“And…”

“And… and…”

“You clearly looked down on my Yino so much back then. How did you somehow become Yino’s fiancée in just half a year?”

Xinyao felt like the sky was falling. Even her speech lost its previous toughness, and she even pouted slightly, looking somewhat pitifully at Yuyan’s reaction.

Yuyan sat beside them, naturally also having some difficulty speaking.

“I misunderstood Yino back then…”

“In fact, over the past half year, I think Yino has been very excellent, whether as a cultivator or as a junior. He’s truly a rare chosen one in this world.”

“And…”

“Over the past half year, Yino and I have indeed fallen in love.”

Yuyan said this somewhat embarrassedly in a low voice.

She actually started speaking quite openly, but seeing the girl Infront of her biting her red lips with eyes staring at her almost to the point of tears, Yuyan also inexplicably became hesitant and lost confidence in her words.

Honestly, Yuyan didn’t know what was wrong with Xinyao. She could only cast her confused and help seeking gaze back to Yino.

For a moment, Yino was also stunned by Xinyao’s expression.

He gently pursed his lips, pondered in his heart, then said somewhat tactfully:

“How should I put it… Actually, Senior Sister and I haven’t developed that fast… It’s just that my future can’t possibly be spent entirely at Wuji Sect. Rather than part ways in the martial world, Senior Sister thought it would be better to come back to the He family with me first to establish our relationship. This way she can feel more at ease when she returns to Wuji Sect later.”

“Mm… Yino is right.”

This time, Yuyan nodded quite sincerely in agreement.

Yino’s words really spoke to her heart. Actually, speaking of marriage, Yuyan really wasn’t that eager. Due to her family background and education, she had always been a rather conservative woman.

She thought that if Yino was going to leave Wuji Sect, then she needed to establish a relationship with Yino first.

And establishing a relationship basically meant Yuyan going to the He family to meet his parents.

Yuyan felt this was very necessary.

If she hadn’t lost her relatives at a young age, she would definitely be willing to bring Yino to meet her own parents now.

Only after both sides had met the parents could Yuyan feel at ease letting Yino stay in the Central Plains.

Otherwise… Without even a proper status, and completely unaware of the He family’s intentions, how could she feel at ease that the He family wouldn’t arrange a better girl for Yino after he returned?

This wasn’t impossible.

Previously in Azure Forest, Ruoning had been the perfect example.

So even if it was just an initial romantic relationship, Yuyan needed to make a trip to the He family with Yino.

She had to discuss the conditions clearly with the elders there.

Of course, if necessary, Yuyan wouldn’t mind signing a marriage contract with Yino. Although it did seem somewhat frivolous to have a flash marriage, having this written guarantee would make Yuyan feel more at ease.

“That… that still won’t work…”

After a long silence, Xinyao finally raised her head with determined eyes to object.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes while sweeping away her previously devastated expression. Glaring coldly at Yuyan, then looked at Yino:

“Yino, you’re the seventh young master of the Grand Tutor’s Mansion. Are you treating such a major life event like marriage as child’s play?!”

“No, I think Senior is pretty good…”

Yino was suddenly scolded, and although he didn’t know what he’d done wrong, muscle memory from childhood still made his tone much more honest in front of Xinyao.

On the other side, the more Xinyao thought about it, the more absurd it seemed. She couldn’t help but angrily clench her hands and point directly at Yuyan:

“What’s the use of you thinking she’s good! What status is she, and what status are you? The Grand Tutor’s Mansion stands at the pinnacle of the human race in the Great Dragon Dynasty among the three great clans. Do you think just anyone can come to our Grand Tutor’s Mansion to be a daughter in law?”

Xinyao was in the heat of anger, speaking decisively.

But after her words fell, Yuyan sitting beside them raised her eyebrows, feeling that her dignity as a descendant of the Mo family had been insulted.

“So what about the Grand Tutor’s Mansion? How many noble families can it look down upon?”

“Don’t think I don’t understand anything at Wuji Sect. I’ve already investigated during this time. In the past ten years, the Grand Tutor’s Mansion has had so many young masters and misses, with quite a few family alliance marriages for mutual benefit. Were all those women who married into the He family because of family interest exchanges female with outstanding beauty?”

“From my observation, at least in the past hundred years, few of the women who married into the He family could match my talent!”

Speaking to this point, Yuyan also snorted disdainfully.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest, lifting a pair of abundant snowy peaks. The Divine Transformation stage cultivation around her body slightly emanated. This move not only demonstrated her confidence as the Sword Leader Senior Sister to Xinyao, but also showed the flat-chested phoenix girl what true feminine beauty looked like.

For a moment, Xinyao was left stunned by the mockery.

She was quite angry, but pointing at the pair of big juggs on Yuyan’s chest, her face turned red from holding back, yet she had no idea how to retort.

“Isn’t that right?”

“In terms of talent, I am also a sword prodigy rarely seen in Wuji Sect in a hundred years. Every time there’s a martial arts competition, elders and seniors from various major sects compete to recruit me.”

“In terms of bloodline, I also have an innate Frost Holy Physique. Although I don’t have any family background, just based on my bloodline, if I really marry into the He family, Yino and I, two destined ones joining forces, might very well give birth to a new generation of absolute genius… Compared to the petty benefits of family alliances, I think the He family elders should care more about the bloodline quality of the He family’s future descendants.”

Yuyan continued her assault.

Seeing that Xinyao had become a dud cannon, she finally thought of something and couldn’t help but laugh coldly. Then she raised her eyebrows and turned the tables:

“Speaking of which, this matter concerns Yino’s and my major life event. Even if we need to consult someone, it should be back at the He family with the family elders.”

“I really don’t know what role a merely an aunt like Miss Xinyao is playing here giving orders?”
