Chapter 699: Let Me Be Yours

“Thinking about it makes me shudder. As a villain, I can’t believe I’ve been marked with a tracker, and by an immortal no less. This is really not acceptable.”

If they recorded this while he was cultivating the “Harmony Technique” with Qin Shili, it would be disastrous.

He was already in a weak position; this would be so humiliating! A man should exude a strong aura, not be pitifully meek.

“What kind of question is that?”

Lin Nuo wielded his blade, eyeing the three female immortals with a wary glare, practically viewing them as enemies.

“Lin the Knight, this is quite important, so please answer it.”

“What’s it to you?”

“Well…”

Xi Lan hesitated, as discussing something like a Marriage Symbol was quite tricky. After all, Yue Lao had ordered them not to speak of it to commoners, and revealing her previous mistake would surely bring shame to the Tianyuan Hall.

“No, you see, Lin the Knight, that immortal symbol can boost your physical prowess and enhance your looks. You might even appear more dashing than ever, possibly catching the attention of other girls. So, we need to get some details.”

Xi Qing quickly chimed in, realizing her sister wasn’t good at making up excuses. Thank goodness she followed her; otherwise, they would have been in a real mess.

“I’m just mud, thoroughly rotten mud at that. No girl is going to fancy me, got it?”

“Um… is that really true…? It shouldn’t be like that, right?”

“So you three teamed up to mock me, huh? No girl likes me, once you hear that, you can leave, alright?”

Lin Nuo held a strong disdain for these immortals, his words dripping with sarcasm.

“Lin the Knight, how could we possibly laugh at you? Rather, we admire you.”

Xi Qing quickly explained, feeling Lin Nuo’s mistrust towards them. She thought of how Xi Lan had secretly placed the immortal symbol, and it shouldn’t require him to be this cautious.

Suddenly, a cold wind swept in, and sharp ice shards hurtled toward the three female immortals.

Seeing this, the three quickly enacted a spell to erect a protective barrier, blocking the incoming ice.

The shards were incredibly swift; they could sense the power behind the attack.

Who was it?

Then, a girl with long silver hair appeared, trailing frost in her wake and showing signs of ice upon the surrounding grass.

The girl flew over to Lin Nuo, wrapping one arm around him and burying his head into her soft bosom.

The three female immortals were left astonished. This unexpected visitor was none other than Lin Nuo’s Second Martial Sister, Qin Shili.

The scene shocked them; their interaction seemed far too intimate. Qin Shili was a target of pursuit for many male cultivators in the Xuanyun Sect and was known as the cold, heartless Ice Beauty, seemingly uninterested in male admirers.

But Lin Nuo, he was receiving such generous affection from her!

Burying himself in her embrace, Lin Nuo felt her soft curves stirring with charm.

They glanced down, comparing their own chests to hers.

Total defeat. No comparison equals no pain.

“Sorry, your admiration means nothing; he already belongs to me. You should head back, or I’ll show no mercy.”

Qin Shili’s words were frosty and commanding, as if facing intruders threatening her territory.

“He belongs to you…?”

Wait, really? They’ve already reached that point?

It seemed the Marriage Symbol was too powerful, directly marrying them off.

Otherwise, it was hard to believe how quickly things had changed.

“Should I say it again? Or are you planning to snatch him away from me? I’m ready for a fight.”

Qin Shili lightly waved her hand, stirring up another cold wind, ice shards rising ominously from the ground.

She was seriously considering battling them, her stance firm.

Lin Nuo, trapped in her embrace, almost suffocated.

While it was soft and comfortable, it was also too large, easily leading to asphyxiation. When someone suffocates, they’re done for.

Lin Nuo quickly looked up, struggling to breathe, needing some fresh air.

“What are you doing?”

“Naturally protecting my person. What, do you want to accept their feelings? You just said no girl likes you; am I not a girl?”

“This is…”

Before Lin Nuo could finish, Qin Shili abruptly kissed him, a chill slipping from her luscious lips to him.

Cool to the core, it was an invigorating sensation.

Xi Lan and the others stared, dumbfounded. Were they really this bold? They were practically shoving dog food down their throats!

This was insane! The effect of the Marriage Symbol was beyond expectations.

If they took the symbol away, and Qin Shili’s feelings faded, would she become enraged and lash out at Lin Nuo?

After all, Qin Shili had never liked him, ignoring him entirely. Now, acting so closely would be a massive insult to her.

Taking away the Marriage Symbol was far too risky, but leaving it in place didn’t seem fair to Qin Shili.

“Senior Sister, if we take out the Marriage Symbol, won’t Qin Shili turn against Lin the Knight once she cools off? That’s pretty dangerous.”

“Yeah, that’s a real possibility. This symbol exceeded all my expectations. I thought it would just make Qin Shili like Lin Nuo a bit, but look where we are now! If Master finds out we’re messing around, we’re in serious trouble.”

Zhou Ling’s head spun; this was tough! Taking it out could spell major chaos.

“How about this? We take it out first, then we can replace it with a regular Marriage Symbol. That one would have a time limit and gradually bring Qin Shili back to her original state. She used to have no feelings for him, so she’d slowly grow disinterested and cold. Eventually, they’d end up like a couple who has drifted apart.”

“That’s too cruel for Lin the Knight! He just gained Qin Shili’s affection, and now he’ll lose it all?”

“There’s no choice; we both share the responsibility. If Master finds out, we’ll be punished. But it’s not a sure thing. If Qin Shili originally held feelings for Lin, their mutual affection might remain unaffected by this symbol. But that’s unlikely, considering how things were before.”

Zhou Ling spoke, and the Marriage Symbol had to go—Lin Nuo, sorry about that.

Qin Shili planted a kiss on Lin Nuo, her alluring lips parting from his.

“Are you forgetting how to uphold your image? You should mind the occasion…” Lin Nuo grumbled.

“I’m the girl who likes you and wishes to follow you. Perhaps, this is what others mean by love.”

“…It’s hard to imagine those words coming from you.”

“So, do you want to make me yours?”

Qin Shili was already set on Lin Nuo, just waiting for a solid answer from him, ready to marry on the spot.

“Senior Brother!”

“Junior Brother!”

At that moment, Liu Shuqin and Su Kexin rushed over, witnessing Qin Shili clinging tightly to Lin Nuo in a very intimate embrace.

This couldn’t happen! How could she be so sly?

This is not right!

Su Kexin and Liu Shuqin dashed forward, determined to rescue Lin Nuo from this perilous situation.

“These two are beyond annoying.”

Qin Shili summoned her powers, striking the ground with her palm, and multiple layers of ice sprang up, forming a formidable barrier to block their path.
