After Favorability Is Maxed-Chapter 336 - Chuichui, the Cat Who Steals Food

336 Chuichui, the Cat Who Steals Food

“…”

Liu Yuan looked at the flashing sword-shaped symbol on the array, then looked at the ceiling. He was glad that he was the only one here.

The communication array was fixed in the quiet room of this house. It was not big, and Ling Guang and Zhizhi were chased out of Ling Hua’s place. He even coaxed Hong Luan to go out and play.

Could it be that after experiencing so many of these things, it had formed an early warning?

!!

Liu Yuan extended his hand and injected his spiritual energy into the array, connecting the two sides. The sword-shaped symbol stopped flickering and became fixed.

Although cultivators at the Form Synthesis stage could already transmit their voices from thousands of miles away, the distance between the City of Ten Thousand Swords and the Wuyin Cliff was still too far. Moreover, he was still at the Soul Formation stage, so the Form Synthesis stage cultivation base was floating like water. He could only release his aura to deter others.

It was just as he had speculated. The attributes attached to the cards were just an empty shell. The higher one went, the more superficial it would be. In the end, one had to rely on one’s own cultivation… Dual cultivation is also considered self-cultivation (confirmed).

The communication array was created to make long-distance calls. Its official name was the ‘Sound Tracking Array’, which was equivalent to the Xianxia version of the fixed phone. It only needed a little spiritual energy to make long-distance calls.

Before this, Liu Yuan had contacted the City of Ten Thousand Swords and told them that they had to rely on high-level spirit birds to deliver the goods. A round trip would take half a month.

After upgrading it, it would be a ‘Floating Light Array’ that could allow video calls. However, time was tight right now, so there was no need to set up this array.

Duan Lanruo’s voice rang out from the formation, still filled with a mature charm. “Ling Hua, has Junxuan returned from the Nirvana Secret Realm? ”

She had probably been in contact with Xuyin Cliff a lot during this period of time, asking about Liu Yuan’s news. Thus, she was sure that Ling Hua was on the other side.

Liu Yuan imagined the scene of Duan Lanruo and Ling Hua conversing.

It would be the most harmonious scene if these two women, who were the most sensible, were together… Right.

Liu Yuan coughed and smiled. “It’s me. I’m back.”

The other party held her breath for a moment, and Liu Yuan clearly heard the sound of breathing and the sound of a teacup being knocked over. After a moment of panic, he heard Duan Lanruo’s gentle voice, which sounded like she was crying, “Yes…”

At this moment, although they were thousands of miles away, Liu Yuan felt that the tall, elegant, and beautiful woman was right in front of him. Her eyes were red, and she was looking at him tenderly and attentively. She reached out and gently held his cheek.

Liu Yuan closed his eyes and immersed himself in this gentleness. In an instant, he began to reminisce about his life in the City of Ten Thousand Swords.

It was the comfort of a teenager listening to the song of the rain in the tent with red candles.

“How have you been?” Liu Yuan asked gently.

When Duan Lanruo first heard Liu Yuan’s voice, she didn’t have much of a reaction. However, when she heard this sentence, she suddenly started sobbing. After a while, she replied intermittently, “I-I’m fine… I miss you so much, sob, sob… I’m fine. It’s just, it’s just that I’m a little worried about you. I’ve already sent the letter, and Ling Zhen and Chuichui were also very well-behaved.”

No matter how mature a woman was, she would have a fragile side.

The city Lord of ten thousand swords, a powerful being at the form synthesis stage, was crying like a little girl in front of Liu Yuan because of a simple greeting.

Liu Yuan really wanted to see Duan Lanruo’s tear-stained face and comfort this mature and powerful woman in his arms. However, it was a pity that they were thousands of miles apart, a chasm that even Crossing Calamity stage powerhouses couldn’t easily cross.

“That’s good.” Liu Yuan could only regretfully explain his next plan and Zhi Chunqiu’s abnormality.

Duan Lanruo collected her emotions and muttered, “The seven sects are indeed being held back now. As the number one sect, the Jade Mirage Sect has its prestige, so it’s not easy for us to target them directly. However, according to Zhi Chunqiu’s character, it’s indeed possible that he’ll do something desperate, but he’s always been very scheming… Even if we make a move, if we don’t capture him directly, I’m afraid that the chances of him covering up his tracks will be higher.”

Liu Yuan nodded. “Yes. That’s why I’ll send Zhiying to investigate first. Then, I’ll ask Netherworld to talk to him about a business deal. He won’t have any suspicions now that the Mansion Master of Bi Luo Mansion is here.”

With Netherworld’s strength, it was more than enough to kill Zhi Chunqiu.

However, what he had to do now was to destroy Zhi Chunqiu’s entire faction in the Jade Mirage Sect. It was not enough to just kill him.

Moreover, doing so would be equivalent to starting a war with the righteous path, which would be extremely disadvantageous to the Bi Luo Mansion.

Therefore, the safest way was to let Netherworld lure Zhi Chunqiu to assassinate Sheng’e, and then Liu Yuan can trap him.

Duan Lanruo didn’t have any objections to this, and she would also have the Sword Pavilion’s people be prepared at any time to let the seven sects launch an attack. At that time, he wouldn’t have any room to turn the tables.

After the official discussion, Liu Yuan asked, “That’s right, how’s Cike now? Earlier, I heard that her mother went to the City of Ten Thousand Swords to look for her. She didn’t cause any trouble, did she?”

In fact, he had already heard about this when he was in the Secret Realm of Nine Cauldrons. However, he had been on the verge of death since then and had not had the time to ask about it.

Later, he heard that the master of the Xuanyin family had gone to the City of Ten Thousand Swords to discuss a marriage. He guessed that Ye Cike had insisted on marrying out, but her mother had refused, so they had gotten into a dispute.

Since it was in the City of Ten Thousand Swords, Duan Lanruo should be able to handle it well. Out of trust in the City Lord, he did not ask any further.

Now that Duan Lanruo had taken the initiative to contact him, he suddenly remembered and mentioned it.

Unexpectedly, Duan Lanruo paused for a moment, then said awkwardly, “I was actually looking for you to talk about this…”

“What?”

Liu Yuan was taken aback. He did not expect Duan Lanruo to come and find him for this matter. He frowned and said, “What’s wrong? She wouldn’t really do something, right?”

Duan Lanruo lowered her voice and said, “No, it’s not Cike…”

Liu Yuan vaguely felt a sense of helplessness and not knowing whether to laugh or cry in her tone.

“Then what’s going on?” He had a bad feeling.

Duan Lanruo said, “Actually… It’s Chuichui.”

“Ah?”

Liu Yuan’s brows furrowed even more. How could it be Chuichui? What did this have to do with Chuichui?

She was just a cute little kitten.

She wouldn’t even be jealous, would she?

How did the matter of the Xuanyin family have anything to do with her?

He was full of question marks. “What’s wrong with Chuichui? Could it be that Cike doesn’t know how to play with cats and made her angry, causing her to become fierce?”

Duan Lanruo’s voice became even more hesitant. “That’s not the case. The two of them get along pretty well…”

“Then what’s the matter?” Liu Yuan was even more confused.

Duan Lanruo took a deep breath and said with difficulty, “It’s because… Chuichui has been stealing food, the head of the Xuanyin family is angry.”

“Stealing food and secretly eating?”

...

Liu Yuan was stunned, then he shook his head and laughed. “That’s it? As expected of a child. Was Cike sulking because her food had been stolen? Are they in a cold war? And then my mother-in-law will also be angry at her?”

On the other side, Duan Lanruo looked at the empty porcelain bottle that she had accidentally broken earlier. She really did not know what to say about this matter.

Everything was going according to plan, and Ye Danqing was about to bring Ye Cike back. Who knew that such an accident would happen?

“Junxuan, I need to tell you something,” she said cautiously.

Liu Yuan felt that there was something wrong with her tone, but he di not think much of it. It was stealing food. At most, children would fight. What else could it be?

“What is it?” he asked, still maintaining his smile.

Duan Lanruo said, “Actually, at that time, I sent the Golden Orchid secret guards to you… It’s to use the Xuanyang Pearl’s yang power to make an ointment, so that Ye Danqing’s plan has already been set, and she can take this ointment back to complete her mission, and finally take over the entire Xuanyin family…” ｆ𝗿𝗲𝒆we𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝚎𝒍. 𝒄o𝚖

“Wait, wait, wait!” Liu Yuan’s smile froze as he tried to digest the meaning of this sentence.

Golden Orchid secret guards, Xuanyang, this was easy to understand, but the ointment and what was done can not be understood.

However, thinking about it, it was not difficult, but it was a little hard to accept.

Duan Lanruo said, “Junxuan, do you understand? You won’t blame me, will you?”

...

“How could I? You solved a problem for me, so why would I blame you? ” Liu Yuan forced himself to calm down. If that was the case, wasn’t that a good thing?

He smiled again and said, “Then, and then? What does this have to do with Chuichui stealing food and secretly eating…”

He suddenly stopped.

Secretly eating?

Steal what?

“She took the rest of the ointment… And she ate them all.” Duan Lanruo said from the other side.

“???!!!”
