Chapter 1712: The Wives Return

A week later.

In the Shuang Clan dining room, Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue accompanied their parents to breakfast. Halfway through, their second daughter told them shocking news, leaving Cui Xiaoyan and Shuang Zong stunned.

Shuang Zong stared at his second daughter in a daze, one hand hanging down while holding a spoon, still in shock because of the news.

Unlike her husband, Cui Xiaoyan quickly came back to her senses, looking at her second daughter with a strange gaze. She had long suspected that her second daughter also had feelings for Ling Yun, but she hadn’t expected their relationship to progress so quickly. Her second daughter went to his residence about a month and a half ago, and she returned with news about their relationship.

However, Cui Xiaoyan forgot about the flow of time in Yunlong Zhuzhai, which was ten times faster than in the outside world. With the rapid flow of time in Ling Yun’s residence, Shuang Meixue had already lived with him for a year and two months, and that much time was enough for their relationship to develop.

Cui Xiaoyan inwardly sighed. "Do you really like your brother-in-law, Meixue?"

"I—"

Shuang Yuzhu preceded her sister in answering their mother’s question. "Mother, you’re asking a question that already has an obvious answer! If my sister didn’t like Ling Yun, she wouldn’t possibly give herself to him, right? Besides, their relationship wasn’t too fast but it wasn’t too long either."

"What do you mean by that, Yuzhu?" Cui Xiaoyan asked in confusion.

"My mother is still young, but she’s already starting to get senile." Shuang Meixue laughed immediately after Shuang Yuzhu made that statement, which caused their mother’s expression to darken. "Mother, I already told you that Huang Lingzhu helped my husband create a time formation in his residence, remember? It’s only been a month and a half in this domain, but a year and two months have already passed in our residence! Do you think that much time is still not enough for my sister to develop her feelings for my husband?"

Shuang Zong, who had been stunned for a while, finally spoke. "Yuzhu is right, wife. I remember you telling me about it when they went to Ling Yun’s residence, but I didn’t expect that our second daughter would develop feelings for him in a year and two months. Since she entered adulthood, we have repeatedly asked her to find a boyfriend, but she has continuously refused our requests."

"You’re right! I was taking care of too many things in our clan, so I forgot about it." Cui Xiaoyan looked at her second daughter. "I’ve actually been suspecting this since that day, and it turns out my suspicions back then have been confirmed now. Since you’ve already chosen Ling Yun yourself, your father and I won’t say anything more about your relationship. It’s better than neither of you getting married, even though I’m a little sad that my two daughters married a man with multiple wives. Furthermore, he’s not a bad man, and the fate of this universe rests on his shoulders, so I’m sure he’s the right husband for both of you."

Shuang Zong had the same feelings as his wife, but he could no longer do anything to change it because their second daughter had already given herself to Ling Yun. "Meixue, you chose this path yourself; I hope you won’t regret it in the future. Ling Yun has dozens of wives, and he probably won’t have much time to accompany you. Do you understand?"

"Mother! Father! You two don’t need to worry about me, and I will never regret being his wife." Shuang Meixue paused and thought about her next words. "Even though Ling Yun has dozens of wives, he never neglects any of them, so I will never regret my decision."

"I hope you’re right."

Afterward, they continued their breakfast while chatting lightly. After finishing, Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue immediately returned to the Yunlong Zhuzhai through the portal in their home domain.

Cui Xiaoyan watched her daughter leave thoughtfully. "Husband, I should be happy that our two daughters have found their chosen husband, but I feel lonely because of it."

"Haha," Shuang Zong embraced his wife. "Why do you have to feel that way, wife? Didn’t our two daughters say that Ling Yun had long ago installed a teleportation portal connecting our domain to their domain? If you miss them, you can go to their residence to meet them, or you can ask them to return to our clan."

Cui Xiaoyan shook her head. "Our two daughters are already grown up, and they’re already Ling Yun’s wives, so they’ll follow him. What if we have a third child?"

"Huh?" Shuang Zong was surprised by this. "Are you serious about that?"

"Haven’t you always wanted to have a son?"

"Well, that’s true."

"Since our two daughters won’t be living with us anymore, I think we can try having a third child, and I hope our third child will be a son."

"If you really want to, we can start trying today." Shuang Zong smirked faintly. "If our attempt is successful, you have to hide it from our two daughters."

Cui Xiaoyan’s nose wrinkled. "You’re right, we should hide it from them."

"Let’s go."

"Husband."

Ling Yun, who had just returned from the Nine Heavens Supreme Sect, turned to Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue. "Why are you two back? Don’t you want to accompany your mother a little longer?"

"Haha," Shuang Yuzhu hugged him. "We’ve been gone for a week, so it’s time we went home."

Ling Yun embraced Shuang Yuzhu on his left and Shuang Meixue on his right. "Have you told your parents about our relationship, Meixue?"

"I told them today, and their reaction was complete shock," Shuang Meixue giggled. "I know that my parents want me to marry a man who loves only me, but I’ve long made up my mind. Besides, you’re the sole heir of the Primordial Chaos Dragon, and the future of this universe rests on your shoulders, so they’re not against our relationship."

Ling Yun nodded in understanding. "Since your parents agree to our relationship, I can be relieved now."

"What have you been up to this week, husband? Have you been dual cultivating with our sisters all week?" Shuang Yuzhu asked curiously.

"I’ve been dual cultivating with them, but not every day. I’ve been focusing more on my training to prepare myself for the Chaos."

Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue exchanged a glance for a moment. "In that case, you should dual cultivate with us today, and we’ll do it for a few days."

"You two—"

"Yun’er." Ling Yun looked at Yi Mingxia, who was running quickly towards them. Seeing that, Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue swiftly moved away from him, allowing him to hug him. "Hahaha! I missed you so much, Yun’er."

Ling Yun supported his mother’s buttocks and gave her a welcome back kiss. "How do you feel after completing all the challenges in the tower, Mom?"

"Not bad." Yi Mingxia looked at Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue. "Eh? Has my son taken you as his wife, Yuzhu? Who is the woman next to you?"

"I became his wife not long after you and the others left for the trial tower, Mother." Shuang Yuzhu felt awkward addressing Yi Mingxia as such. "Mother, she is my sister, Shuang Meixue. She also became his wife some time ago.

Shuang Meixue had heard about Ling Yun and Yi Mingxia’s relationship from her sister; she felt embarrassed and confused about whether to address her as sister or mother. "Mother, nice to meet you. I’m Shuang Meixue."

"Hehehe," Yi Mingxia giggled, jumped down, and hugged both women. "Although it’s a little late, welcome to our big family, Yuzhu and Meixue."

"Thank you, Mother." Shuang Meixue and Shuang Yuzhu felt relieved in their hearts, but they still had to face one more person, who was none other than Ling Yun’s grandmother, Song Mei.

"Yun’er!" Ling Yun smiled and spread his arms to the side, welcoming Ling Ling, who was flying swiftly toward him. She hugged his neck, separated his lips with hers, and kissed him deeply. "Did you miss me, Yun’er?"

Ling Yun nodded with a smile. "I missed you, Big Sis."

"Haha," Ling Ling laughed loudly. "I missed you too, Yun’er. Luckily, all the challenges in the trial tower weren’t that difficult; otherwise, I would have spent more time there."

"That’s good." Ling Yun patted Ling Ling’s head. "You can rest now, and we’ll go to the Heavenly Star Sect in twenty days to participate in the competition."

"I know." Ling Ling looked at Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue. "Hmm?"

Yi Mingxa immediately told her daughter. "Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue are part of our extended family, Ling’er."

"Oh." Ling Ling had known Shuang Yuzhu for a long time, but it was the first time she had met Shuang Meixue. "Congratulations to you both."

"Thank you." Shuang Meixue and Shuang Yuzhu answered in unison.

Ling Ling immediately jumped down from Ling Yun’s arms and spoke to the two women, but she was not surprised to hear that Shuang Meixue was Shuang Yuzhu’s little sister.

Ling Yun smiled as he watched the group leisurely walk into his residence, with Song Mei walking at the front. However, his children hadn’t returned from the tower yet, as they were still weak compared to all his wives. "Are you all satisfied with the results of your training in the tower?"

Song Mei smiled at her grandson, hugged him, and kissed him. "Even though all the challenges were quite difficult, we managed to get through them all smoothly, Yun’er."

"That’s great." Ling Yun hugged and kissed each of his wives one by one. "Anyway, I have some good news, but I deliberately didn’t tell you all about it while you were at the tower, and I was waiting for you to come back to tell you."

"What kind of news?"
