Chapter 2338: Drawing Lots

Xiao Fan returning with Xiao Li was undoubtedly a joyous occasion for the Xiao Family.

After the banquet, Xiao Li and Zhao Yanfu talked throughout the night. Mother and son had not seen each other for many years; now that they were reunited, they had many private thoughts they wanted to share with each other…

During their conversation, Zhao Yanfu also asked about Liu Wuyan.

It was no secret that Liu Wuyan of the Pixin Sect was interested in Xiao Li… everyone in the entire Hongtian Star Domain knew about it.

"If you have the chance in the future, bring that girl named Liu Wuyan over so Mother can see her and vet her for you," Zhao Yanfu said with a soft laugh.

Perhaps it was because she was getting older, but she really hoped to hold a grandson soon.

In fact, it wasn't just her; even Xiao Fan had thought about it before.

The life of a Mortal is but a fleeting hundred years, while the life of a Cultivator is extremely long…

But that doesn't mean they lack affection; they also want to experience the joy of doting on a grandchild.

"Al… alright, actually, there's nothing between her and me." Xiao Li's face flushed red, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Still pretending… Do you think I, as your mother, don't know your personality? Besides, your other aunts already told me that when you were in the Secret Realm, you and her…"

"Fine, fine, fine… I'll bring her, I'll bring her!" Xiao Li hurriedly interrupted his mother. If she continued speaking, he would only become more embarrassed.

"You child…" Zhao Yanfu couldn't help but smile bitterly. In the blink of an eye, almost a thousand years had passed since they left the Nine Provinces. Xiao Li had grown up and was now a renowned Prodigy Genius in the Hongtian Star Domain. To say his state of mind hadn't changed at all would be a lie.

The mother and son continued their long talk…

Things were harmonious over on Xiao Li and Zhao Yanfu's side, but it was a different story for Xiao Fan.

The banquet ended quickly; no… it should be said it ended extremely quickly!

Then came the part that gave Xiao Fan the biggest headache—there were too many women at home now.

Ye Miaoyin, Zhangsun Ning, Nangong Lingxuan, Hu Rui, Long Caiwei, Chiyue Lianshang, Lan Zhanque, and the Red Demoness… Xiao Li had only helped Xiao Fan take one off his hands, and there were still eight left!

Even if Xiao Fan knew One Qi Transforms into Three Purities, it still wasn't enough.

Besides, among these women, who would be willing to let a Clone keep them company?

And so… a very dramatic scene unfolded.

"According to the rules, Xiao Fan should come to my place tonight!" Ye Miaoyin said slowly, looking around at the women with an overbearing air.

"No, we drew lots last time… If Xiao Fan returns, it should be decided by the date. Today is the 8th, so it's my day!" Lan Zhanque said with dissatisfaction.

"No way… You clearly cheated when we drew lots last time. We already said that time didn't count!" the Red Demoness pouted.

"Dear sisters, shouldn't you take care of this little sister? I am the youngest…" Long Caiwei interjected.

"No… since when does age matter in this matter!"

"Exactly… Long Caiwei, go to the side!"

"Hmph, Sister, they're bullying me!"

"…"

Xiao Fan watched this scene helplessly. Having too many women at home was definitely not a good thing!

Especially for a man as outstanding as him…

"Sigh… I finally understand why emperors in the Mortal world have such short lives." Xiao Fan muttered to himself. He didn't interrupt, just stood there silently… watching this scene calmly.

As long as they didn't start a fight, he would let them do whatever they wanted!

Xiao Fan had already prepared himself for his old waist not to get a rest for two months; what was he afraid of?

He wasn't afraid of anything!

Let the storm come even more fiercely!

"Darling Xiao is keeping me company today!"

"No… Xiao Fan should keep me company!"

"How long has it been since I last saw him!"

"Isn't it the same for everyone? Why do you get to be special!"

"Exactly, exactly…"

"…"

The group of women remained deadlocked, and in the end, they chose a traditional method… drawing lots.

And the result of the drawing was to go by the day… 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7… continuing in that order.

Whoever drew 1, Xiao Fan belonged to them today!

This was the most reliable method the women felt they had now.

Xiao Fan almost wanted to laugh watching them; these women were actually using such a childish method. Of course… he also felt quite pleased inside, as it proved he was very popular.

But next, the women got into an argument again over the issue of the judge!

The method was simple, but who would serve as the judge?

They didn't trust each other, worried that they would cheat!

"Let my sister do it; she's the eldest, she definitely won't cheat!" Long Caiwei shouted.

Upon hearing this, Ye Miaoyin nodded repeatedly: "Right, right… that's correct."

"No, definitely not!"

"Exactly… that won't do!"

"Change the person, we must change the judge!"

"…"

The women argued once again; on the issue of the judge, none of them were willing to yield even half a step.

But since even Ye Miaoyin wouldn't do, the others were even less acceptable. They were all worried about each other's selfish motives, so they all looked at Xiao Fan in unison!
