The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 672 - 180 The Whole Central Plains Has Become a Complete Mess
As a gentleman, Lin Yun did not take advantage of Qian Qian’s guilt to do much, merely pinching her small hand casually.
Qian Qian’s hand felt really nice; if there were really a thousand such hands, he wondered if he could ever get enough of touching them.
After scratching the palm of Qian Qian’s hand, Lin Yun let go. However, this slightly teasing action still made Qian Qian’s heart flutter, and though she glared at Lin Yun in embarrassment and annoyance, she didn’t take him to task for it.
"This should be the Land of Death, and the Land of Death is still a desert, which means we must have gone back to the past."
In the future, the desert of the Land of Death had turned into a vast ocean.
With this proof that they were in the past, Lin Yun felt much more relieved.
Having taken a round trip to the future, he learned many secrets, but actually, there were not too many things that needed to be changed in the future.
The meeting between Dongfang Hongyue and the Sinful Blood was inevitable.
If Dongfang Hongyue was to breakthrough to the Defiant Heavenly Realm, she would have no choice but to seize the Earthly Soul, and taking the Earthly Soul would activate the Sinful Blood.
From the current perspective, this particular future didn’t need too much alteration; continuing on smoothly seemed to be the best possible outcome.
Originally, he had thought Dongfang Yao would turn out to be the big boss, but he didn’t look cool for more than three seconds.
To be honest, seeing him utter only a sentence before being swept into the Yin and Yang Qi Pool and bursting into bubbles actually panicked Lin Yun a bit.
After all, he had once indulged in unspeakable fantasies about Qing Nu and had even kissed and touched the Statue of Qing Nu...
He had to thank Qing Nu for her grace in not killing him.
The future already looked pretty good. The part he witnessed seemed to be without any problems.
However, outside the plot he saw, some things still happened.
For instance, Lin Yun did not see Wang Wanqiu, Zhen Li, and even the two relatively significant girls from the Southern Border were nowhere to be found.
There was no information on how the Snow Maiden was doing; overall, this future, although not terrible, was not ideal either.
"The formation of the Land of Death happened during the Cataclysm of Demons and Gods. We don’t even know at which point in time we are."
While Qian Qian thought this, she didn’t speak to Lin Yun. She was in a bit of a mood! 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
What was Lin Yun implying by scratching her palm for no reason?
He must have been trying to flirt with her!
Hmph, already surrounded by so many women, and still harboring dishonorable intentions towards her—this guy was truly a philandering rascal. Would this goddess be easily fooled?
That was impossible!
Qian Qian decided to ignore Lin Yun for the time being, to let him know that his attempts to woo her were completely ineffective.
So what if he flirted with her palm? Would a goddess care?
"Let’s go, if we leave this place, we’ll find out what time we’re in by looking outside."
As long as they had gone back to the past and could get back on the right track, Lin Yun would be at ease.
He didn’t want any complications and hoped this wasn’t the ancient past, as changing history would definitely come at a severe cost. The future can be changed because it hasn’t happened yet, but the past had already taken place.
Changing even a minor detail in the past would completely collapse the entire timeline.
Lin Yun feared encountering such a situation. If they truly traveled to an even more ancient time, he would choose to isolate himself for arduous cultivation, and at the very least, he would cultivate to a higher realm than Yuxuan before emerging.
It would be best to just cultivate without making an appearance, unless he was limited by his lifespan.
As no creatures lived in the Land of Death, venturing out into the world would make it easy to come across people and gather useful information.
However, Qian Qian did not move, as if she didn’t hear Lin Yun.
Who are you asking to go?
It’s as if we are still on the same side now that we’re in the past.
She hadn’t forgotten the bet she made with Lin Yun, and how he reneged on it, dragging her into this troublesome situation. She had been keeping this grudge all along!
Although she didn’t necessarily want to take revenge on Lin Yun, she could use this grievance for settling accounts later.
Seeing Qian Qian not react, Lin Yun asked in confusion, "What’s wrong?"
"What’s wrong? You’re asking me what’s wrong?"
You haven’t even explained the palm scratching incident!
Think you can act as if nothing happened?
Qian Qian, puffing up her cheeks in anger, let out a loud "hmpf" and turned her head away.
"I understand."
Lin Yun stepped forward, took hold of Qian Qian’s hand, and smiled, "Now we can go, right?"
Qian Qian: "..."
Is that what I meant?
Wouldn’t that make it seem like I’m clingy?
Lin Yun, that little rascal, scraped her palm with his finger again, and when Qian Qian tried to withdraw her hand, Lin Yun held it tight.
"You!"
Qian Qian glared at Lin Yun in embarrassment and anger, only to meet Lin Yun’s eyes, filled with tender affection.
Struck by enchantment, they were locked in a stand-off.
Lin Yun slowly lowered his head and, taking advantage of Qian Qian’s confusion, kissed her.
A real man gets things done quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly.
He didn’t give Qian Qian time to react, striking while the iron was hot.
Otherwise, once Qian Qian calmed down, it might be much more difficult to taste the goddess’s charm again.
With that kiss, Qian Qian’s mind went blank. She remembered she was supposed to be angry, yet found herself at Lin Yun’s advantage instead. She slowly got lost in the sensation, different from last time when Lin Yun kissed her just to shut her up—it was purely for the kiss this time, and it felt different.
But as she was gradually losing herself, a sinful hand touched a forbidden place, instantly snapping Qian Qian back to reality. She sharply pushed Lin Yun away, hugged her chest with both hands, and looked at Lin Yun with a flushed face.
"You!"
Qian Qian was sure she must have fallen for Lin Yun’s tricks. That was the only explanation for why her mind shut down the moment Lin Yun looked at her, allowing him to take advantage of her.
Was this the trial of love? Truly terrifying.
Qian Qian’s heart raced with panic, but also with excitement. The close contact with Lin Yun brought her an unprecedented sense of pleasure and thrill. But now, she finally had a bit of clarity.
She couldn’t stay with Lin Yun for too long; she would fall, she would degenerate.
Qian Qian decided to escape.
Can’t stand up to it, can’t I outrun it?
With a thought, Qian Qian realized she could return to her Divine Country, and in an instant, she disappeared from Lin Yun’s sight without a trace.
Lin Yun was stunned. He had conceived many possibilities, confident he could handle each one, but he hadn’t expected Qian Qian to simply run away.
Lin Yun’s right hand opened slightly, wanting to grasp something, but ultimately, he caught nothing.
The sun had already set in the west, casting a vast swath of red glow. Lin Yun hadn’t forgotten that the Land of Death would spawn undying monsters at night.
However, with his current cultivation level, he wasn’t afraid of the monsters from the Land of Death anymore. Not only that, he could also farm his Golden Lotus here?
Lin Yun had not forgotten the Land of Death as a natural leveling spot; it’s just that all along his journey, he had no time to specifically level up, as he was involved in various major events. His power and cultivation level skyrocketed like riding on a rocket, hardly pausing for a moment.
Previously he wasn’t leisurely enough, and now being back at the Land of Death, it seemed unnecessary.
The merit gained from burning those demon creatures was too little for Lin Yun’s liking. However, the abyss from which those creatures emerged did interest him.
But his current cultivation level wasn’t one hundred percent secure. Wu Xin was of the Demon Race and had lived for quite a long time; perhaps she had some understanding of this place. Maybe it’s better to find her and ask!
He wanted to try contacting Wu Xin anyway.
Lost in the chaos of space and time before, he couldn’t contact either Wu Xin or Hu Yuling. He didn’t know if those two little demons had perished in the deluge.
It would be quite a pity if these two demons, big and small, had perished.
After calling out three times, Wu Xin responded.
She seemed a bit excited, "You’re back?"
"What? Miss me?" Lin Yun said playfully.
Probably because he had just teased a goddess, he was still afloat and hadn’t reined in his frivolity.
Wu Xin was taken aback by his frivolity, genuinely startled.
Could it be that during his disappearance, Lin Yun had another incredible adventure, and he was finally going to reveal his true colors?
What should she do if he harbored ill intentions towards her?
Die rather than submit?
That seemed like a huge loss. After all, Lin Yun had only cuddled and lifted her up before; dying over such a small matter didn’t seem right.
Great patience for important planning! She had lived for so many years and finally saw a glimmer of hope for returning to the Demon Land. Maybe it was better to endure?
After all, her body was merely a condensation of Demonic Thoughts and Demonic Qi. As the human cultivators said, the flesh was illusory. Even if Lin Yun wanted to do something more excessive to her, she just had to close her eyes, endure it. Once it was over, it would be over, right?
Wu Xin hadn’t realized that her inner voice was already convincing her to consider compromising.
Compared to her initial resolve to die rather than submit, her current thoughts had evolved to ’the truly brave are those who can be flexible’...
All this change had taken just a little time.
"I haven’t. I was just worried because you disappeared for a long time. I’ve completed my task. You should give me my reward now," Wu Xin explained in a very rigid tone, as if the excitement she’d felt upon hearing Lin Yun’s voice was just due to the prospect of getting rewarded or knowing she wouldn’t die due to some master-servant death law.
Lin Yun smiled slightly, knowing she was being tsundere, and said nonchalantly, "Since you have completed the task, then tell me where you are. I’ll come to give your reward."
Lin Yun said casually but then remembered the task he assigned them was to give the Shenxiao Sect a pretext to unify the world. Additionally, they were to instigate a conflict between the Snow Maiden and Yuan Zidan.
Actually, the task was a giveaway because Lin Yun had secretly sent letters to Snow Maiden and Fang Yu outlining his plans to temporarily resolve the deadlock through warfare. The gunpowder was in place; the two little demons just needed to light the fire.
The task wasn’t difficult, so he had no doubt about the progress of his two servants.
However, as he ascended on his sword, Lin Yun still asked, "How did you complete the task?"
"We didn’t do anything. Lin Yu came out of seclusion and launched a war to unify the Central Plains. At the same time, Yuan Zidan initiated a surprise attack, claiming you should return his sister, and Flower Fairy led the Demon Tribe to attack the Central Plains. Hearing you had disappeared, she started fighting with Lin Yu, and now the whole Central Plains is in chaos..."
