Chapter 2201: Chapter 2201: All Equal Status
"Are you... acknowledging me as your master?" Ye Haochuan asked, somewhat incredulously.
The young man nodded slightly, "If it wasn’t for you, I would have remained here forever, suffering the pain of a broken body. Now that you’ve saved me, acknowledging you as my master isn’t a big surprise, right? Besides, you also need to help me continue to perfect my body, don’t you?"
Ye Haochuan’s heart was excited, and his hands were trembling a bit.
This is a whole world!
When he first saw Liu Bai’s Golden Pearl World, he was envious. A world like this that can be carried around is equivalent to an endlessly large storage space.
Moreover, storage rings can only store dead objects, but in this world, even living beings can be placed. If he put hundreds of female attendants inside, he could laugh heartily anytime, anywhere. Wouldn’t that be a great joy in life?
Just as Ye Haochuan was overwhelmed with excitement, Zhu Qingshuang looked worriedly at Little Hun, asking with concern, "Little Hun, what’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you saying anything?"
Little Hun seemed to awaken from a trance and smiled, "Sister, don’t worry, I’m fine. It’s just that I will be completely fused with him in the future, at which point my form will disappear."
"Disappear?" Zhu Qingshuang’s face showed sadness, "Why does it have to be you that disappears?"
The young man suddenly laughed and said, "If Mistress doesn’t want to see me, it’s fine to leave her appearance here. After all, she and I are originally one."
Zhu Qingshuang was delighted upon hearing this.
The fusion process was relatively slow, and Ye Haochuan and Zhu Qingshuang didn’t disturb it further.
With just a single thought, Ye Haochuan and Zhu Qingshuang found themselves back at the foot of Mount Obis.
The Minor World had already been integrated into his body, without any other carrier like the Golden Pearl, or in other words, his body was the carrier.
After some intimacy with Zhu Qingshuang, she suddenly blushed and shyly said, "Haochuan, I want... to have a child with you!"
Ye Haochuan had heard similar requests multiple times the previous night; almost every woman had whispered it into his ear.
After years of waiting, they realized they urgently needed something to rely on, and a child was the best emotional connection and sustenance between them and Ye Haochuan.
"Alright, hubby will focus on sowing seeds today!"
Ye Haochuan smirked, skillfully releasing Zhu Qingshuang from her constraints...
Zhu Qingshuang was already exhausted, but after swallowing a pill, she fought against fatigue because she really wanted a child and didn’t want to wait any longer!
After a round of exertion, it was almost getting dark.
Ye Haochuan returned the exhausted Zhu Qingshuang to the headquarters of the Phantom Sound Pavilion and quickly rushed back to the Imperial Capital, where numerous assignments still awaited him.
For several days, Ye Haochuan reveled in tenderness, yet he didn’t feel exhausted. Instead, he became more spirited.
Finally, one day, Ye Haochuan arrived at the villa where Pan Muxiang and her companions lived.
"Why are you here instead of taking care of your dozens of beautiful wives?" Pan Muxiang asked sarcastically upon seeing Ye Haochuan.
"Aren’t you someone I need to care for too? This is what I call fair treatment!" Ye Haochuan joked as he moved to hug Pan Muxiang.
But Pan Muxiang quickly turned and easily avoided him, coldly saying, "I’m not your raindrop or dew. If you want to feel passionate, go to your own women."
"What’s wrong with you? Didn’t we agree on this?" Ye Haochuan looked pained.
"Agree on what? I don’t recall agreeing to be your woman!" Pan Muxiang snorted.
Oh, come on, we’ve already kissed! Is verbal consent that important?
Ye Haochuan felt helpless inside.
But he also knew that getting a woman to accept sharing a husband with so many women isn’t easy; he needed to give Pan Muxiang some time.
"I’ve come this time to tell you that I’m planning to take the Heavenly Road to the Immortal Realm tomorrow. You..."
"Just go by yourself; I won’t follow you!" Pan Muxiang said decisively.
"Huh?" Ye Haochuan was somewhat surprised.
He originally thought that no matter what, Pan Muxiang would follow him to the Immortal Realm, but he didn’t expect this response.
"Is that strange?" Pan Muxiang said matter-of-factly, "The Flower Energy is abundant here without much danger. Why should I go to the Immortal Realm and take risks?"
"Is that really how you feel?" Ye Haochuan asked, somewhat disbelief.
"Of course!" Pan Muxiang affirmed, "Why? Don’t you want me to stay here?"
"I do... of course, I do!" Ye Haochuan felt that the surprise came too suddenly.
In truth, deep down, he didn’t want Pan Muxiang to go to the Immortal Realm; the dangers up there were a thousand, even ten thousand times more than on Earth.
Seeing Pan Muxiang’s genuine expression, Ye Haochuan was relieved and planned to ask Ye Hao to look after her.
After giving a few words to Li Yun and Rui’er, Ye Haochuan prepared to leave.
Just as he reached the door, he noticed Rui’er quietly following him, so he stopped to wait for her to come up.
"Can you... take me with you..." Rui’er hesitated for a moment and finally mustered the courage to say.
"It’s dangerous up there; taking you would be too risky!" Ye Haochuan said seriously.
"I know it’s dangerous, but... I just want to go up and see! I believe as long as I’m with you, there shouldn’t be any danger!" Rui’er looked at Ye Haochuan with hope in her eyes.
"I’m not omnipotent; I can’t guarantee your safety!" Ye Haochuan was somewhat reluctant.
If it were Pan Muxiang, he wouldn’t be so conflicted. After all, Pan Muxiang had reached the Immortal Transformation Peak, possessing the strength to protect herself. Whereas Rui’er only had Nascent Soul Peak cultivation.
"I’m not afraid of danger! I just want to..." Rui’er stammered for a while, finally gathering the courage to say, "I just want to be with you... I don’t aspire to be your wife, even if it’s just as a maid, I’d be satisfied!"
After these days of interaction, Rui’er’s feelings for Ye Haochuan had already undergone subtle changes.
At first, she just saw Ye Haochuan as a "kind fellow countryman" from the same world, but after being saved by him several times, she had developed an infatuation for Ye Haochuan.
This was the first time she felt this way.
Originally, Ye Xiao was considered a Son of Heaven, but he couldn’t capture her heart as quickly as Ye Haochuan did.
Ye Haochuan was somewhat taken aback by Rui’er’s sudden confession.
He didn’t actually dislike Rui’er, especially after she had rescued him from Xierui, almost losing her life in the process. He had developed a sense of affection that stemmed from gratitude.
"There are no maids by my side. All my women have the same status!" Ye Haochuan said gently, pulling Rui’er into his embrace.
