--- Chapter 174 ---

Yu Long arrived at the yard and felt a chill in his spine.

Xu Nannan carefreely sat on the artificial pond's edge, feeding fish with green-colored pellets. "Hmm, you're here..." She turned around when sensing someone's presence and left Yu Long dumbfounded.

Her face is that of her thirties self, having very few wrinkles but still appearing very beautiful.

However, what shocked Yu Long wasn't that.

Behind Xu Nannan, a massive projection stood firmly. It towered over the surrounding trees and cast a shadow over them. It also has human-like qualities, such as limb-like branches and a crooked face.

Yes, this is a Treant!

Xu Nannan has been cultivating [Art of Prying Wood] Yu Long tailor-made for her. To Yu Long's surprise, she actually reached such a high mastery to the point of forming her own Profound Manifestation.

Sometimes, Yu Long forgot his family members are naturally gifted.

'I guess Grandpa's words of Noble's duty are indeed true. He really considered Grandma's bloodline when performing his duty.' Yu Long thought to himself.

'9th Princess. Although her position might be the lowest, her talent is probably one of the best in the Grand Asura Kingdom's Royal Family.'

'In the original story, Grand Asura Kingdom's Royal Family got wiped by the Phoenix Sect, yet my Grandma is here and still kicking on. There must be something going on here.'

Xu Nanan smiled and patted the ground, "What are you standing there for? Sit here. Grandma has a story to tell."

Before Yu Long could reply, a thick root dragged him to the spot beside Xu Nannan and bound him there.

"Grandma, why did you do this?" Yu Long asked with a frown.

Xu Nannan giggled and returned, "Just some precaution, dear."

'Precaution from what?' Yu Long wanted to ask, but he knew it was 'basically' useless to argue with his unreasonable Grandma.

Xu Nannan is the definition of a kind and fair but very stubborn Grandmother. She wouldn't take a no easily.

With the increase of her cultivation base, Xu Nannan stood in the top five spots of the most fearsome experts in the Lost Heaven Sect.

"Don't be so stiff and look so solemn." Xu Nannan kept feeding the fish with pellets. "Grandma wanted to tell you my life story."

"This will be a long one. Do you want snacks?"

Even though Yu Long could run away with no problem, he sighed and still gave in, "Do you have those caramelized sugar-coated citrus slices?"

"Of course." Xu Nannan set boxes of caramelized sugar-coated citrus slices for her dear grandson. She also freed one of Yu Long's arms so he could grab and eat them.

Watching Yu Long enjoy the caramelized sugar-coated citrus slices, Xu Nannan smiled and said, "Okay, Grandma will start the story..."

...

Years ago.

Before the Divine Phoenix Sect showed itself, the Grand Asura Kingdom was one of the Great Seven Nations. They are prominent ones, having many experts and bountiful resources.

When they attacked the Divine Phoenix Sect's branch, some members launched an overwhelming counterattack and wiped out the rebellion force.

Surprisingly, they spared Feng Nannan alone because they recognized her not-aging appearance. Those members are Feng Nannan's old friends from a hundred years ago. They have become prominent elders of the Divine Phoenix Sect.

One of the elders is the Divine Phoenix Empire's Royal Family Prince, Feng Tianwei.

Feng Tianwei was shocked to see Feng Nannan again.

Not only Feng Nannan didn't age, but her bloodline's potency and quality were also higher than his Phoenix's Bloodline.

Because of this, Feng Tianwei shamelessly asked for Feng Nannan's hand for marriage. Feng Nannan's husband, Ye Sanshan, won't let that happen and fought Feng Tianwei for weeks to a draw.

Once again, Feng Tianwei was shocked.

He also detected an extraordinary bloodline from Ye Sanshan but couldn't recognize it for some reason. Of course, Ye Sanshan wouldn't reveal his background as the Prince of the Eternal Night Royal Family to others.

Well, Feng Tianwei had a different idea. He thought the union of Feng Nannan and Ye Sanshan's Bloodlines would create a monster in the future.

With that in mind, Feng Tianwei laughed and made an agreement with Feng Nannan. If Feng Nannan and Ye Sanshan made a great descendant in the future, that descendent of theirs shall get engaged with a talented member of Feng Tianwei's family.

After that, Feng Nannan and Ye Sanshan left and hid on the border of the Divine Phoenix Empire. Feng Nannan exchanged letters with Feng Tianwei now and then, giving life updates to an old friend.

Only recently, Feng Nannan started mentioning her grandson, Yu Long, to the other side. She received a shocking response a while ago, leading to a possible engagement of Yu Long and Feng Tianwei's granddaughter.

Feng Nannan knew that Feng Tianwei issued this matter because Yu Long was the Lost Heaven Sect's young leader. She couldn't wait to see her old friend's shocked expression after knowing Yu Long was more than that.

...

"..." Yu Long stared at Xu Nannan dumbly.

"First of all, you lived an interesting life, Grandma." He breathed deeply.

"Second..."

"Can I reject this engagement?"

Xu Nannan blinked wickedly and responded with a giggle, "Hehe, No."

'Damn it, you owe a life debt, and I'm the one paying it.' Yu Long was speechless.

"We will visit the Divine Phoenix Empire in a week or so. Prepare yourself because I heard your fiancee is the Number One Beauty of the Profound Sky Continent." After saying that, she gave Yu Long a pinch on the cheek and walked away gleefully.

"I hope Tianwei's old bones shook when meeting you!"

"Kukuku, My grandson is no ordinary person~!"

Watching Xu Nannan's back, Yu Long's face couldn't help but twitch in helplessness.

"Feng Tianwei..."

"Number One Beauty in the Profound Sky Continent."

"Wait, don't tell me my fiancee is..." Yu Long stood motionlessly with a bewildered expression. He gazed into the distance and cursed, "Fuck, this must happen because I shattered Yun Che's fate."

"His nonsense protagonist fate went to me instead." No wonder Yu Long felt his Golden Karmic Thread become bigger, even though he didn't do anything much recently.

"God damn it!!"
