Chapter 3102

"Stop worrying about Dad. she’s been sent to the island," Yun Meng said. She noticed Yun Ling didn’t know yet, so she decided to tell her.

Yun Ling blinked in surprise. "Sent to the island? By Grandpa?"

"Yes." Yun Meng nodded slightly, pointing at Yan Xizhong. "I don’t know what he told the butler last time. But the next day, the butler called me. He said Grandpa sent Dad to the island and told us to live our own lives. He also said if you meet him, just take good care of yourself."

"Take good care of myself?" Yun Ling was stunned again. "What does that mean?"

Yun Meng shrugged. "I’m not sure. But my husband told the butler that you have a past-life debt to pay. You can only marry someone else after you finish paying it."

"Can he say that?" Yun Ling looked at Yan Xizhong.

Yan Xizhong sat nearby, casually holding a fruit. He wasn’t eating it, just playing with it. "Why not? Your butler isn’t an ordinary person. He’s half-demon. Once he knew my origin, he understood my authority. If I said you have a past-life debt, it’s true."

Yun Ling nodded slightly, looking understanding. "So, does that mean I can choose not to marry in the future?"

"I only mentioned the past-life debt. How strong that bond is isn’t up to me. Remember, nothing good falls from the sky. You must grasp your own marriage and future."

Yan Xizhong never decided another person’s future lightly.

Yun Ling understood. "I see. When I go home, I will face it myself."

Thinking about going home without her husband and child by her side, Yun Ling felt a bit down.

The First Soul seemed to sense Yun Meng’s thoughts. He walked over and sat next to Yun Ling. "Wife, at least I am with you now."

Yun Ling hummed, looking at the First Soul. "I know. But thinking about our eventual separation makes me sad."

"Separation leads to reunion," Yan Xizhong said, glancing at Yun Ling. "Do you think the First Soul can reincarnate immediately after returning? A human-soul romance producing a soul-child breaks the rules of the Underworld. He will be punished. By the time his punishment ends, you will likely have passed away. As long as you accumulate enough karmic merit while alive, you two can enter reincarnation together after death and continue your bond."

Yun Ling tilted her head, thinking. "So, we need to do more good deeds."

"That is undeniable," Yan Xizhong nodded seriously.

Yun Ling looked at the First Soul. "Don’t worry. I will accumulate enough karmic merit. Then I can reincarnate with you."

"Okay." The First Soul’s eyes were full of tenderness. "That’s for the future. Right now, your most important job is to safely give birth to the child in your belly."

Yun Ling smiled softly, her eyes showing maternal warmth. She gently rubbed her belly. "The baby is very well-behaved."

"Yes, I think so too. It’s hard on you," the First Soul said. He didn’t know about other pregnant women, but a soul-child was special. He saw Yun Ling’s hardship clearly.

Yun Ling shook her head slightly. "Carrying this child for you doesn’t feel hard at all."

"We came to see you, and you’re showing off your love. Sister, that’s not very moral," Yun Meng teased from the side.

"Don’t you show off with your brother-in-law often? You just weren’t doing it right now," Yun Ling retorted directly.

Yun Meng blinked her innocent eyes. "Did I?" Then she looked at Yan Xizhong and asked again, "Did I?"

Yan Xizhong raised an eyebrow. "Probably not. Our love is deep naturally. We don’t need to show it off."

"Heh," Yun Ling sneered lightly. "Tongues have no bones. Say whatever you want."

No matter how they bickered, the warmth in the cave was very comfortable.

Old Master Yun’s small birthday party didn’t invite many people. Old Master Yun didn’t plan to celebrate, but Yun Meng and Yan Xizhong still visited the Yun family old residence.

This was the first time Yan Xizhong truly faced Old Master Yun.

From the butler, Old Master Yun knew Yan Xizhong’s origin was unusual. Facing him directly, he understood what true majesty and innate nobility meant.

Even without speaking, just standing there, Yan Xizhong’s aura and authority were impossible for ordinary people to imitate.

This was the majesty of a superior being, honed by long years. Even Old Master Yun paused when he first saw Yan Xizhong, feeling an involuntary sense of fear.

Fortunately, Yan Xizhong knew Old Master Yun was Yun Meng’s grandfather. He didn’t release his true authority. Otherwise, no one here could withstand his pressure.

"You are Young Master Yan," Old Master Yun said. He dared not call Yan Xizhong by his name casually. This was a true King of Hell-level figure.

Yan Xizhong nodded slightly. "Grandpa, this is our first meeting."

"Yes, first meeting." Old Master Yun looked at Yun Meng, who was calmly brewing tea. "When did you two get together? Regardless, you should have told the family."

"It’s not that I didn’t say it," Yun Meng continued her task. "If I had told her, my dad would probably try to scheme against me. No, against my husband. I wouldn’t let her scheme."

Old Master Yun was amused but helpless. His son was indeed unreliable, but he could still control him. "You worry about your dad scheming against your husband? If he really tried, he would be the one to suffer."

"That’s true, but I still don’t like my husband being schemed against," Yun Meng answered seriously.

She wasn’t wrong. She truly didn’t want others to scheme against Yan Xizhong.

Yan Xizhong smiled gently at Yun Meng. He naturally understood her intentions.

Old Master Yun sighed. "Your dad is indeed unreliable. But there’s no help for it. He was actually better when he was young. But his aptitude was fixed. When you and your sister were born, your aptitude surpassed his. He inevitably felt inferior."

"So his inferiority led to having a illegitimate daughter. Grandpa, stop covering for my dad. I’ve watched his behavior since I was little. Don’t you know what kind of person he is?"

A hint of mockery flashed in Yun Meng’s eyes. "They say, don’t fear a god-like opponent, fear a pig-like friend. Honestly, if I were closer to my dad, he would definitely be a pig-like friend."
