After Favorability Is Maxed-Chapter 236 - 236 Tolerance Is Great
236 Tolerance Is Great
Ling Hua did not cultivate in the Jade Mirage Sect since she was a child. Instead, she was brought back from the foot of the mountain by her master, Sheng’e.
She was originally born into a prominent mortal family. When she was seven years old, her family changed. No one knew what happened to her. But a night of fire almost extinguished the whole family, leaving only her in the ruins of burned charcoal and corpses. The last sword strike was almost about to fall. If not for the stroke of luck that allowed her to dodge this misfortune, there would be no one named Ling Hua in the world.
After she was carried up the mountain by Sheng’e, she took the Dharma name ‘Ling Hua’ and abandoned her real name to show that she had cut off all ties with the mortal world.
However, it was said that in the first year after Ling Hua learned swordsmanship, when she went down the mountain for the first time to cultivate, she had eradicated an evil aristocratic family and an evil organization behind it that had done evil in the mortal world. It was the enemy who had once exterminated her entire family.
However, this was already a matter of 300 years ago. Now the truth could not be investigated. The image of Ling Hua had long been solidified as a cold fairy. No one was willing to believe that the ‘Frost Smoke of Jade Mirage’ Ling Hua had such a violent moment.
In most people’s eyes, Ling Hua was Ling Hua. She should be free from the mortal world and only stay in the depths of the clouds.
However, the girl who indifferently asked Liu Yuan to call her by her nickname seemed to be stubbornly pulling herself back into the mortal world – although she had thrown away her common name after the age of seven, the carefree Jiao’er from was still there.
“Jiao’er.”
Liu Yuan carefully called out Ling Hua’s pet name. His tone was so gentle as if he was afraid that she would put her slender hands on his throat and break the heartless man’s neck if she was dissatisfied.
Fortunately, the latter’s hand only stopped at the side of his face. After he finished speaking, the female Daoist closed her two fingers and pinched his face.
The force was not heavy, but Liu Yuan, who had been on tenterhooks, tensed his back and almost rolled off the bed.
Fortunately, Liu Yuan finally remembered that he had voluntarily sealed his cultivation. He was afraid that he would be caught before he could even flip down. Even if he was not sealed, he still could not defeat Ling Hua, but at least he could run.
Now was the time to feed the tiger with one’s own body. He had already planned to face the enemy head-on, so he could not retreat!
Liu Yuan’s entire body was stiff. Although he managed to relax in time, Ling Hua that was pressed against him and even used as a pillow was aware of the changes in his body.
“Daoist Jiang Feng, I thought your skin was really that thick to be able to say such bold words. In the end, why did you turn red with a pinch?”
Ling Hua lowered her head slightly and placed the side of her face on his forehead. She sighed and reached out to gently rub the faint red mark left on his face.
Liu Yuan only felt that her forehead and face were warm and smooth, and he knew how much the woman’s skin fit the phrase ‘skin as smooth as cream’. It made his heart itch for a moment, and he wanted to pinch it back.
Liu Yuan immediately gave up on this idea of seeking death. The most important thing now was that Ling Hua’s carried a faint smile and did not have any intention of stern condemnation.
Liu Yuan vaguely felt that it was because he did not pause or hesitate when he called out Ling Hua’s pet name. His hesitation was mostly because he was afraid of being cut into two, not because he could not remember.
If he had not already gone through all the information and materials about Ling Hua in his mind, especially the things he had learned during the process of conquering her, he would not have been able to react in time.
The game had mentioned this a few times at most, but if it was someone else, they probably wouldn’t be able to pass this stage.
Liu Yuan was the only one who had almost memorized all the information and content of his target.
However, he was not a genius with a photographic memory. There were more than a hundred documents, so it was understandable that he had forgotten some parts. He could only make more preparations in advance to make up for his shortcomings.
It was best not to lie in front of Ling Hua, especially at such a close distance. Any micro-expression could be detected. Not to mention, he had already made the most straightforward and intense declaration before. If he tried to cover it up now, he would be simply lying, and his character would be exposed. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com
However, the current situation was indeed much better than he had imagined.
Liu Yuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The corner of his mouth twitched, but he did not dare to show any unnecessary expression. He could only glance at the table beside him and said, “I can’t go against my own thoughts and say that I have nothing to do with them, or that I don’t like them. They’ve done a lot for me, I can’t reject them.”
… Speaking of which, the expected confrontation between Xiahou Cenyi and Ling Hua did not happen. He did not even know where Xiahou Cenyi had run off to. He did not know whether to be worried or glad.
Ling Hua asked in a low voice, “The one who really put in a lot of effort and sacrifice is City Lord Duan, right?”
Liu Yuan’s heart skipped a beat. However, Ling Hua’s face was currently pressed against his forehead, so he could not see the female Daoist’s expression. Thus, Liu Yuan did not know what kind of state of mind she was in when she said those words.
Previously, he had already made some inquiries. After that incident, Duan Lanruo only said that she had taken Liu Yuan as her foster son, but she had not revealed the relationship between the two.
Ling Hua’s words were ambiguous, and it was difficult to judge if she really knew something.
However, from the context, Liu Yuan felt that she probably did know about the matter between him and Duan Lanruo.
City Lord Duan has put in so much effort to scheme for you, keeping Shen Sifan and Ye Cike behind and dealing with them. Now, she’s even directly allied with the Xuanyin family. She’s truly thinking for you. If it were her, I wouldn’t be angry… But you’re saying you want to marry Shen Sifan? ”
Ling Hua raised her head slightly, and Liu Yuan could finally see her cold and beautiful face. She stared at Liu Yuan and looked at the latter.
Her beautiful eyes squinted, and there was a faint light.
“Did the others, Shen Sifan, Ye Cike, and your two so-called first wives really do anything for you? All they did was pay some self-righteous and one-sided feelings, and you call it a sacrifice? My Junxuan, you’re really soft-hearted… to the point that you’re feeling guilty and even shackled yourself.”
Ling Hua’s tone was extremely indifferent and cold, but her eyes were filled with harsh blame.
Liu Yuan was stunned and almost dumbfounded.
Umm…
“I already know what you did at the Water Moon Dock and in the City of Ten Thousand Swords.” Ling Hua touched his face, and her expression softened. She said in a soft voice, “Back then, you had just recovered your cultivation, and you had no choice but to expose the demon cult’s spy to prevent Gu Siyin from being harmed. You would rather Xiangrong than lose the Dock Master’s position. You probably still take the danger for granted, right? Then, you blocked the river in the City of Ten Thousand Swords, and your life was on the line. Who did you do it for? In terms of love, is Liu Junxuan not better than anyone? is he better than sitting around and enjoying the fruits of others’ labor, or is he worse than threatening others with his sword?”
Gu and Ning have both given their bodies to you, and the Xuanyin family has also formed an alliance with the city of Ten thousand swords and are now a great help to you. Only Shen Sifan is greedy, jealous, willful, and ignorant. If it weren’t for her triggering the Ten Thousand Sword Array, the City of Ten Thousand Swords wouldn’t have fallen into such a passive situation that day. In the end, you had to bet your life to turn the tide. All the Green Lotus Swordsman has left is er name, so what right does she have to ask you to marry her?”
The woman’s eyes were between cold and gentle, and her words were so sharp that she did not seem like the ethereal Jade Mirage Senior Sister. Her harshness towards Shen Sifan was overflowing.
Liu Yuan opened his mouth, but his brain could not process what had just happened. So she was angry about this.
The water outside was glistening, and the sun shone in through the window, shining on Ling Hua’s face, making Liu Yuan, who was half-lying, a little dazed for a moment.
He… He didn’t bet wrong?
Pa!
The window above suddenly opened, and an extremely beautiful face with an evil aura suddenly appeared. Half of her body peeked in from the deck, and half of her red clothes hung down. She clapped her hands and laughed. “Well said! I’ve been unhappy with this kid’s behavior for a long time. He’ll kill when he needs to kill, and he’ll [beep–] when he needs to be [beep–]. He’s so coy, indecisive, and indecisive. What a disgrace.”
Liu Yuan finally could not help but sit up with a dumbfounded expression. He was tongue-tied. “This, me, you guys, they’re…”
He did not know whether to laugh or cry, but at the same time, he felt helpless and depressed. You might as well start a harem!
Ling Hua hugged him and leaned back. Liu Yuan let out an ‘oh’ and the back of his head felt like it was being surrounded by soft cotton.
Thank the lords that her tolerance is great…
“Junxuan, answer a few questions of mine.” Ling Hua lowered her head and smiled. “First, between me and Shen Sifan, who do you choose?”
“?!” Liu Yuan’s mood, which had just relaxed, suddenly became tense again. In an instant, his thoughts turned. Could this be the true reveal of her hidden dagger?
