An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad

Chapter 126

“Mutual Assistance of Extreme Yang?” Feng Yuwan furrowed her brows slightly.

Yang Chen explained, “Senior Feng, the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice has absorbed the cold essence of the Profound Ice Spirit Water for ten thousand years, making it the most extreme yin and cold object in the world! Even though you are an ice attribute cultivator with the Ice Phoenix bloodline, if you attempt to absorb it directly, your body may not be able to withstand the intense cold!

“However, I possess a different kind of flame that embodies the most extreme yang energy in existence! If I use my flame to neutralize this extreme cold, you can safely refine the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice!”

Feng Yuwan glanced at Yang Chen, her beautiful eyes narrowing in thought. As a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator with over a thousand years of cultivation experience, she was well-versed in the yin and yang mutual assistance method. However, the playful smirk on Yang Chen’s lips made her suspect his intentions.

Despite her reservations, what he said made sense. The extreme cold within the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice was indeed something she struggled to withstand. Just touching it had nearly frozen the true energy in her body. Refining it could even threaten her life force.

After a moment of hesitation, Feng Yuwan asked, “How exactly do you propose using your flame’s extreme yang to assist? What do we need to do?”

Yang Chen chuckled inwardly, sensing her growing interest. The Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice was evidently a powerful temptation for Feng Yuwan. In the original story, this sacred lotus was supposed to be the catalyst for Long Tianyu, the destined son of fate, to break through his relationship with his future mother-in-law, Feng Yuwan.

But now, it would be him—the father-in-law—who would take that role. After all, asking Yu’er to do such a thing wouldn’t be appropriate. As the father-in-law, it was rightfully his task.

“Senior Feng, it’s actually quite simple!” he said. “I just need to transfer my primordial fire into your body. You can then refine the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice while my flame neutralizes its extreme cold.”

“But …” Yang Chen paused, pretending to struggle with the next part.

“But what?” Feng Yuwan immediately pressed.

“But the primordial fire is extremely hot, and I’m afraid your clothes won’t be able to withstand it!” Yang Chen continued. “And I’ll need to make physical contact with you to properly control the flame.”

“What!?” Feng Yuwan’s eyes widened in shock as she bit her lip. Just as she had suspected, this rascal had ulterior motives. This was what he had been aiming for all along.

“Yang Chen, this is impossible! I won’t do it!” she declared firmly. Being unclothed in front of this rascal? She, a dignified Soul Transformation Realm cultivator with a thousand years of cultivation, still had her pride.

“If you’re unwilling, then we’ll leave it at that,” Yang Chen replied, feigning helplessness. He made no attempt to force her, but added, “However, the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice is a rare treasure of heaven and earth. It shouldn’t be wasted.”

“Senior Feng, Xu Qingxuan, who accompanied me here, has also awakened the Ice Phoenix bloodline. Perhaps I could help her refine it instead? In the future, she might even become a powerful Void Refinement Realm expert!”

“Your maid?” Feng Yuwan asked coldly. “It seems the two of you are quite close.”

“Hehe!” Yang Chen chuckled. “She is my personal maid, so naturally, we are close!”

A playful glint appeared in Yang Chen’s eyes as he continued, “Senior Feng, could it be that you’re jealous?”

“You!” Feng Yuwan’s face immediately turned icy. “How dare you! Do you think I, who have cultivated for a thousand years, would be jealous of a child like you? Don’t flatter yourself!”

“A child?” Yang Chen raised an eyebrow. This woman was treading dangerous ground. Being called a “child” was the greatest insult to him.

“Yang Chen,” Feng Yuwan said after a moment, her resolve wavering, “is there truly no other way to refine the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice besides the method you mentioned?”

Yang Chen’s smile widened, knowing she couldn’t resist the lure of the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice. Shaking his head, he replied, “There isn’t!”

“Senior Feng, if the primordial fire enters your body, do you really think your clothes will survive? Besides, we are already engaged. Why worry about such trivialities? We are cultivators, after all. You’ve cultivated for a thousand years; surely, you shouldn’t be concerned with such minor details. I don’t mind, so why should you?”

“You … annoying rascal!” Feng Yuwan bit her lip and glared at him fiercely. As a cultivator of the Soul Transformation Realm, the head of her clan, and the lord of Ice and Snow Ancient City, she wanted to give up.

Absorbing the Profound Ice Spirit Water could enhance her cultivation, possibly allowing her to reach the middle stage of the Soul Transformation Realm in a short time. But refining the Sacred Lotus of Profound Ice could change her constitution, giving her a chance to step into the Void Refinement Realm in the future.

Giving up just because it required being unclothed? The more she thought about it, the more regretful it seemed. Moreover, Yang Chen’s words were true—they were already engaged, and the entire Northern Spirit Domain knew it. Intimacy was inevitable sooner or later.

Forget it. After cultivating for a thousand years, what hasn’t she experienced? And during this time, this rascal had taken advantage of her in various ways. Earlier, he had even pressed against her in that particular spot. This wasn’t much different.

A determined look flashed across Feng Yuwan’s face. She then looked at Yang Chen and said, “Yang Chen, I will do as you said. But you must, absolutely must, turn around and keep your eyes closed!”

“Turn around? Keep my eyes closed?” Yang Chen chuckled. He knew this was Feng Yuwan’s final bit of stubbornness, the last step she needed to take to convince herself. So he replied, “Of course! Senior Feng, it’s not that I enjoy taking advantage of others; this situation simply requires us to face each other naked. After all, I am a man of integrity!”

“Bah!” Feng Yuwan spat lightly. She didn’t believe a word of this rascal’s nonsense. He was clearly taking advantage of her while pretending to be noble.

“In that case, Senior Feng, let’s begin!” Yang Chen said as he sat cross-legged by the shore and closed his eyes.

A look of hesitation and indecision flickered across Feng Yuwan’s jade-like face. But in the end, her slender fingers gently untied the belt around her waist. In an instant, a piece of snow-white skin was revealed, and the lake reflected the vibrant colors of spring.
