"Fifteen now!" Murong Qingxue said in a low voice, "Judging by this pace, it might even break twenty!"
"It shouldn't be a big problem, right?" Murong Qiuyue said with a smile. Her state of mind was quite calm now. After all, she wasn't vying for favor. Being by Yang Feilong's side was enough. She couldn't bear to be away from him, as she felt her spirit and energy drain away. She never wanted to experience those days again!
The women in the hall also began to chat, gathering in groups of three or five. Luo Yujiao played a role in facilitating introductions, but most importantly, they all knew what kind of man Yang Feilong was. If they made things too difficult for him, it would reflect poorly on everyone. A little sarcasm and teasing, however, was fine.
"Should I come back another time?" Luo Feixue, dressed in white, floated in gracefully.
"You've broken through to the Xiantian realm?" Yang Feilong looked at Luo Feixue entering the hall, extremely surprised.
"I had some fortunate encounters," Luo Feixue said with a chuckle. "Just a lucky breakthrough." Luo Feixue had always been a loner. Yang Feilong originally thought she wouldn't attend this gathering, but he never expected her to actually show up!
"Husband, aren't you going to give me a romantic kiss?" Luo Feixue said with a smile. Without waiting for Yang Feilong's consent, she hooked her arm around his neck and initiated a kiss. After a moment of intimacy, she actively let go of Yang Feilong and cheerfully began greeting the other women. Indeed, Luo Feixue was naturally socially adept. Despite the large number of people, she was quite at ease. Her actions astonished many of the women present!
A while later, Ouyang Yixue arrived fashionably late.
"I apologize. I was in seclusion and only found out late, so I'm here after everyone else," Ouyang Yixue said apologetically as she walked into the villa. Yang Feilong thought to himself, it wouldn't have mattered if she hadn't come, as too many people had arrived today. How nice it would have been if they had come in batches. Now, what should he do? Of course, since they were all here, he couldn't just send them away! Ouyang Yixue looked at the crowd in the room and naturally couldn't be too intimate with Yang Feilong. She merely shared a perfunctory kiss with him before going to greet and chat with the other women. They all knew that Yang Feilong had asked them to come to Lan Hai City instead of him visiting each of them, with the intention of letting Yang Feilong's women get to know each other.
"Seventeen now!" Murong Qingxue was still counting.
Just as Ouyang Yixue and the other women were engaged in enthusiastic conversation, a woman with an unusual aura but a somewhat mischievous demeanor entered the hall.
"Eighteen?" Murong Qingxue blinked and continued counting. The mischievous woman who entered smiled and said, "Hello, sisters-in-law! I'm brother's younger sister, my name is Yang Qingqing."
"Feilong's sister?"
"Is this his real sister? Or a romantic interest?"
"She called us sisters-in-law, so she must be his real sister! Besides, her surname is also Yang, and our husband once mentioned he had a sister. It must be her!"
"Hello, sister!" The women smiled and greeted Yang Qingqing. Whether she was a real sister or a romantic interest, she was family. However, if she was his real sister, was it really appropriate for her to come today? But the next moment, the women were stunned. The sister, Yang Qingqing, leaped onto Yang Feilong's body and engaged in a passionate kiss. After the kiss, she added, "Brother, I'm now at the first level of the Foundation Establishment realm. When will you take me?" Yang Feilong's forehead darkened. He was almost sprained by his sister's sudden turn of events. The other women suddenly understood; this was indeed a romantic interest! Yes, Yang Qingqing's cultivation had broken through to the Xiantian realm. It had only been a little over a year since she was an ordinary person and now possessed Xiantian realm strength. She truly lived up to her reputation as a Taiyin Physique! Although her Taiyin Physique was not as good as Yang Feilong's Yin-Yang Physique, Yang Feilong's Yin-Yang Physique was incomplete. Moreover, before Yang Feilong left, he had provided each of his women with a large number of spirit stones for their cultivation. While their cultivation speed might not have matched that of cultivation in the Spirit Realm, it was not far off.
Yang Feilong explained Yang Qingqing's identity. Some knew, like Luo Yujiao and Luo Wenwen, but many did not. Yang Feilong was raised by Yang Qingqing's parents, who were his adoptive parents. Therefore, Yang Qingqing's identity was quite special; she was Yang Feilong's sister, and also a romantic interest, holding a dual identity! The eighteen women present were all considered Yang Feilong's women. Fifteen of them had had a substantive relationship with him, while three had not: Yang Qingqing, Xi Mengru, and Xiao Jingwen. Yang Feilong wanted the latter three women to break through to the Xiantian realm or Foundation Establishment realm before pursuing them further. Yang Qingqing had now reached that point, but Xi Mengru had not yet. Although Xi Mengru's cultivation talent was no less than Yang Qingqing's, she still needed time to break through. Xiao Jingwen was in a similar situation!
"Are all your women here?" Luo Yujiao asked, stepping forward.
"One more is missing," Yang Feilong said after a moment of thought. "I don't know if she'll come!"
"Oh?" The women were all surprised. The last woman Yang Feilong mentioned was Luo Xiangning. Luo Xiangning had pursued his father for many years. Although all the women here were his own, their relationship wouldn't be spread. Yang Feilong was unsure if Luo Xiangning would be too shy to come. At this moment, three girls' figures appeared in Yang Feilong's mind. Two of these girls had confessed their feelings to him: Lin Qiaoxi and Tang Ya. However, both had been rejected by Yang Feilong. Both girls had gone to the Spirit Realm to cultivate. In the months they had spent in the Spirit Realm, he hadn't heard any news of them. Of course, the main reason was that Yang Feilong had stayed with the Murong family for some time, and later was in the Five Elements Bagua Formation. After leaving the Bagua Formation, he was chased by the Xiao family, and he hadn't even had a chance to inquire about his mother's whereabouts, let alone the situation of those two girls. The other girl was Fang Qingxue. His relationship with Fang Qingxue was complicated. Although they had had deep and intimate contact, Fang Qingxue prioritized cultivation, and romantic matters were secondary to her. She called herself Yang Feilong's girlfriend, but it didn't quite feel like it!
Just as Yang Feilong was wondering if Luo Xiangning would come, a figure walked into the living room. Yang Feilong initially wore an expression of disbelief, then a look of joy appeared on his face. Luo Xiangning's presence at today's gathering indicated her attitude. Perhaps, soon, she wouldn't even fear their relationship being known. Of course, time could dilute everything. Over the past year, Luo Xiangning had often traveled around, rarely returning home, and had no contact with Yang Feilong's biological father. Such matters had gradually faded.
