Fairy, wait a minute, let me explain.

"Your Highness, please come back with this old servant."

Lu Chen groggily woke up, his consciousness returning. When he opened his eyes, he saw a transparent frame rippling in front of him, and an old woman coldly watching him.

What surprised him even more was the scene around him.

The entire ancient-style street is lined with buildings.

These shops have rather unrefined storefronts, and almost every second-floor window has women dressed in flamboyant and unrestrained ancient costumes. Their light clothing is half-revealed, and their waists sway gracefully, attracting frequent glances from men on the street.

There were also some offensive and unpleasant sounds.

"Hey grandpa, come on up and have some fun!"

"Young master, please don't!"

"..."

He still couldn't find the "Exit Game" button, and he couldn't even feel that he was wearing a "gaming helmet." Before he could think any further...

The next second, memories flooded out like a burst dam.

His head was throbbing, and he instinctively hissed.

"Your Highness, please come back with this old servant."

The old woman's voice rang out again.

Finally, the memories flooding his mind, intertwined with his past gaming experiences, helped him understand the situation.

He is currently in the timeline after the Second War Against Heaven, which is the game content of "Fairy Raising Project 1".

His current identity is the consort of the little princess of the Great Wei Dynasty in Dongsheng Shenzhou, and his real name is Wei Wuxian.

An assassination attempt in his childhood rendered him a cripple incapable of cultivation, which led him to marry into the royal family at a young age.

It seems illogical that a disabled person like him would marry into the royal family, but the reason is actually very simple.

His father, Wei Jidao, was the Grand Preceptor of the Great Wei Dynasty and one of the Five Sages of the Eastern Divine Continent.

As the third son of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, even princes and princesses in the court must bow to him first.

If he hadn't been deposed, there would be no question of a marriage alliance, unless he actively wanted to marry her...

That is why he had no way of refusing this marriage, which his father had tacitly approved.

Now, he is sixteen years old and has been married to Ninth Princess Wei Yunyi for a year, but they are only husband and wife in name only.

The reason I say "in name only" is clear from this red-light district.

The original owner of this body was a good-for-nothing, while Wei Yunyi was a genuine cultivation genius. Now, at the same age as him, Wei Yunyi was already a fifth-realm expert.

In addition, the original owner of this body was arrogant and domineering on a daily basis because he relied on his status as the young master of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.

Therefore, it would be a miracle if Wei Yunyi were interested in Wei Wuxian.

They've been married for a year now, and let alone sleeping with a princess, Lu Chen can barely recall ever meeting her more than a handful of times...

"My lord, I'll say it one last time, come back with me."

The voices rang out again, and at the same time, Lu Chen's sleeve was gently tugged.

Lu Chen turned around and saw a young man in a brocade robe winking at him, signaling him to look at the street corner.

Following the other person's gaze, at the entrance of the market, beneath the archway, a royal-style three-horse carriage was parked.

That was his wife Wei Yunyi's carriage.

At the same time, Lu Chen also noticed that many people in the market were secretly glancing at him and the carriage from time to time, with looks of mockery, envy, hatred and so on.

"The name of its predecessor was quite famous in this red-light district."

Lu Chen chuckled to himself.

"I'm leaving now."

After speaking to Chen Yuming, the son of the Vice Minister of War and a friend of his predecessor, Lu Chen slowly walked towards the carriage.

It was about a few dozen steps away from Wei Yunyi's carriage under the archway.

Lu Chen, or rather the new Wei Wuxian, sorted out his past with Wei Yunyi while pondering the future.

Since the fact of time travel is unchangeable, we can only do something about it.

Before Wei Yunyi began his cultivation, he and other princes and princesses would occasionally visit the Imperial Preceptor's residence to seek knowledge from his father, so the two had some interaction in their childhood.

They could barely be considered childhood sweethearts, but that's where it ends.

Later, Wei Yunyi went to the Central Plains of Haozhou to study under a master and cultivate, during which time they lost contact until she returned last year before their wedding.

Upon returning, Wei Yunyi may have realized that the marriage agreement was unavoidable, or perhaps she had already prepared herself to become a tool in a political marriage.

Wei Yunyi remained silent throughout and obediently married Wei Wuxian.

It wasn't until their wedding night that Wei Yunyi told Wei Wuxian that she was unwilling to marry him and would not share a room with him. She also asked Wei Wuxian to behave himself and study hard, and not to be arrogant and domineering anymore.

The previous owner had been arrogant for more than ten years, and on top of that, the humiliation of not being allowed to share a room was too much to bear.

They immediately escalated their actions.

Therefore, in the year since their marriage, the former had lived a rather miserable life.

Wei Yunyi not only tattled on Wei Wuxian to his father, but also stopped Wei Wuxian's monthly allowance.

Later, the original owner started stealing Wei Yunyi's jewelry to sell and use the money to go out and have fun. When Wei Yunyi found out, she personally beat the original owner severely.

Unable to cultivate and only a first-grade martial artist, Wei Wuxian was furious and said he wanted to divorce her. Wei Yunyi immediately suppressed her cultivation to the third realm, which is equivalent to a Qi cultivator. While continuing to beat him, she said that as long as Wei Wuxian could fight back, she would wait for Wei Wuxian's letter of divorce!

And then comes the present.

Three days ago, Wei Yunyi made a special trip out of seclusion to meet with Wei Wuxian and told him not to cause trouble for the next ten days.

Unexpectedly, his good friend Chen Yuming suddenly returned from the border. His predecessor, who always considered himself the leader among the group of young masters, immediately slapped his thigh and went out to welcome his good brother back.

Then there is no more then.

......

Standing beside the black three-horse carriage, Wei Wuxian gently knocked on the window twice and looked into the distance as he spoke.

"Sorry, Chen Yuming has returned from the border. I just came out to welcome him back and didn't mean to cause trouble."

The person inside the carriage seemed quite surprised by Wei Wuxian's attitude, and after a couple of moments of hesitation, responded with a slightly surprised "Oh".

Wei Yunyi's special instructions after leaving seclusion must have been based on her own considerations.

The predecessor was someone who was detached from worldly affairs and unaware of the undercurrents beneath the apparent prosperity of the Great Wei.

Wei Wuxian admitted that he didn't have much political wisdom, but he wasn't stupid either.

At least, the original owner hadn't seen his cheap old man for quite some time.

Not to mention, he and Wei Yunyi are now a legally married couple, arranged by their parents and formally married after bowing to heaven and earth.

Whether Wei Yunyi's words of advice and concern were genuinely for his sake or for her own, it doesn't matter.

Since Wei Wuxian has taken this identity, he has to accept it.

"I need to discuss something with you," Wei Wuxian continued.

"Heh, you need money..."

"Write me a letter of divorce." Wei Wuxian interrupted softly, his voice calm and uncompromising: "I will handle things with His Majesty and my father."

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage fell silent.

Wei Wuxian wasn't in a hurry, and continued to gaze at the sunset glow on the distant horizon.

A few breaths later, the carriage curtain was lifted, revealing a rather delicate and pretty face. She wore no makeup whatsoever, and only used a jade hairpin carved into a plum blossom branch to casually tie up her long, black hair, which looked rather sloppy.

Even so, it couldn't hide her unparalleled beauty.

It is entirely conceivable that once the girl has completely shed her childishness, she will be a beauty that could topple kingdoms.

Wei Yunyi, who was originally leaning back, stared at Wei Wuxian's profile for a few seconds before gradually sitting up straight.

Wei Wuxian turned his head and saw that she was not wearing a woman's dress, but a plain scholar's robe.

He nodded to himself, thinking that the divorce should be settled.

Her makeup and clothes were so perfunctory; it was obvious she was quite dissatisfied with her husband.

They looked at each other.

Wei Yunyi looked at Wei Wuxian's clear eyes, which were different from usual, and felt a little puzzled.

After all, he was her husband; how could she have only met him a few times? Of course, she had observed Wei Wuxian many times in private.

She looked the same, but she felt that something was different.

But the next moment, she caught sight of a group of spoiled young masters sneaking around not far away. Then, remembering how much Wei Wuxian had gone astray over the past year, the strange feeling from before vanished instantly. She lowered the curtain and spoke coldly.

That's enough.

"Enough?" Wei Wuxian looked at the curtain that had reappeared between them and explained, somewhat puzzled, "You're the one who wrote the letter of divorce for me, not me for you."

"I already told you last time, don't even think about it."

Wei Yunyi's tone could be described as one of disgust.

Wei Wuxian hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Can you give me a reason?"

Wei Yunyi did not reply, but instructed the old woman, "Granny, let's drive."

"Yes, Your Highness."

--Snapped.

Just as the old woman sat down in the driver's seat, Wei Wuxian suddenly reached out and pressed heavily on the corner of the carriage, blocking her way.

"What if I insist?"

Just then, Chen Yuming and his group walked over. Upon seeing this scene, they were first startled, and then bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Your Highness the Ninth Princess."

The carriage curtain was lifted again, and Wei Yunyi ignored the others, staring at Wei Wuxian with undisguised disgust.

"You're going to insist, right?"

"I've already said, I'll suppress you to the same level, as long as you can fight back."

"I will go to the Taoist temple as usual in half a month. If you defeat me, I will agree to your terms."

"Waiting for your divorce papers!"
