At the same time, Qingyi felt that she had done nothing wrong. After she had clearly expressed her rejection, he still ignored her wishes and wanted to get her by pestering her. This led Qingyi to begin to doubt whether he had really considered what would happen after the two of them were together - at least she had really considered it: he was too young, and if she was with him, she felt that she had not found a Taoist partner, but a son.
So, in the final analysis, he only pursued her to satisfy his own selfish desires, and he never considered that if this came true, she would not be able to hold her head up in front of everyone she knew.
Even though he will grow into a tall pillar and become a towering tree that protects the sect in the future, that is a matter for the future. Now is now.
In addition, because of what he did, Qingyi always had a resentful feeling in her heart. Is it true that a woman with outstanding appearance should be harassed by nature? She had to find a man to bear children after she had a uterus. She had suffered a lot since she was a child, and then she would continue to torture the next generation?
There is no need to think about these questions, the answers are obvious.
Moreover, these ideas are extremely similar or completely consistent with Xiao Zi's to some extent, because they can solve everything by themselves, so men are completely unnecessary and unworthy to them, and will only make them more tired, more aggrieved, and more troublesome.
……
At this moment, Qingyi has figured out a solution. Since she has decided to talk, she might as well talk openly.
So she sat down gracefully in front of him, folded her hands, and whispered, "I'll give you a chance tonight. You can say whatever you want to say or ask. After tonight, there will be no such good thing again."
When Ye Hong heard this, he immediately realized that this was the so-called confession night. So why not seize the opportunity to communicate more with his master and strengthen their relationship.
He started with a bang and asked directly, "Master, what do you want me to do or say in order for you to fall in love with me?"
He never tried to hide his lust, and always faced it head on, without any shame.
Qingyi was startled, then sneered, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "Legend has it that there is a poisonous insect in the southwest that can corrupt people's hearts. When you find it, plant it on me, and I will fall in love with you." She paused and didn't say the rest, but if you fail, or act carelessly and I accidentally discover you, then I will kill you, you little bastard!
True determination never needs to be expressed in words, just like Ye Hong did not shout to the world that he would protect his mother even if it meant his death.
When he heard this, he suddenly felt an indescribable sense of frustration and was immediately discouraged. "This is not true love, and you underestimate me too much. I'm not that mean."
Looking at the unhappy rebel in front of her, Qingyi's eyes flashed with a hint of sneer, and she suddenly found it a little funny. It was fate's trick. Yes, how could admiration gained by relying on external things be true love?
Do you really love me?
If the dragon ball had not already become one with me, I would really like to cut it out and put it in front of you to see whether you love me or it?
Ye Hong muttered, "What do you want from me to be satisfied?"
Qingyi replied calmly, "I hope you can find a Taoist partner who is suitable for you besides me, and don't waste your time on me."
"That's impossible!" Ye Hong immediately retorted, and then asked: "What do you like to eat and drink?"
"No." Qingyi added calmly, "I haven't eaten for a long time. It's just a craving. I'm not interested."
She could use "no" or "I don't know" as answers to all questions. Seeing that she couldn't get any useful information, Ye Hong snorted and asked about cultivation instead, "Master, are you a double golden elixir?"
Qingyi frowned, then quickly relaxed her brows, her lips slightly curved. He asked about cultivation so soon, he is indeed a teachable kid.
She lowered her beautiful eyes slightly and said softly, "Yes, I am."
But she herself was unaware of the vulnerability she had unintentionally shown.
Ye Hong asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
"...I just remembered some old things." She raised her eyes and said slowly: "It's you who really shouldn't have chosen this path. Your talent is too good, but it's not beautiful. Who told you that? He is a traitor!"
Ye Hong thought to himself, whether to choose or not is not something I can decide. Suddenly, I had two golden pills.
He was silent for a while, then whispered, "Do you remember what you said to me when we first met? Don't become a chess piece in the hands of others. Sometimes, I really feel like a chess piece, and my luck is so good that it's scary..."
There is gain and loss. One day in the future, when the "master of destiny" in chess needs to use him as a chess piece, will he still care whether he is strong enough or whether he can survive?
So he could only seize the opportunity and make himself stronger as soon as possible.
Ye Hong was very calm at the moment. "You asked who told me this. I can only say that this is fate. Everything is God's will. It happened naturally, as if I was supposed to take this step."
"Master, if I want you." He looked up and gazed into her eyes, "Before I really play a role, tell me, will the existence beyond everything let me get what I want?"
"I have to say, your performance really exceeded my expectations."
At this moment, she finally acknowledged this possibility for the first time.
Chapter 108: Gloomy Face
Qingyi glared at him fiercely and sneered: "Since you have given up your self-esteem and chosen to leave everything to fate, then I have nothing to say about this."
Ye Hong didn't think it was a big deal, and said bluntly, "Even the heaven and earth cannot change a person's character and integrity, and the yin and yang creation cannot change the karma a person has created. If that's the case, what is there to be afraid of, Master?"
"Do you think you will fall in love with me..."
"Shut up, you traitor. On one hand you call me Master, and on the other hand you tell me to love you."
Qingyi frowned and said angrily, "You are a disciple of the emperor, but what do you think the relationship between master and disciple is? A tool to add interest to you!"
To be honest, every sect's direct disciples are carefully trained like sons. They are the real face of the sect. It is their duty to bring fame to the sect and to communicate and exchange ideas with external parties.
"Now you are also a Jindan cultivator. When Murong Yun is promoted to elder in the future, you will be needed to take his position as the chief. You are not a person who cannot distinguish right from wrong, but you have a childish temper. Can you understand a little bit?"
There were more serious words that she couldn't say to him: After we die, the sect will depend on your generation, but you have no ambition and just want to sleep with women all day long!
Ye Hong took a deep breath and was not in a hurry to prove himself to her, because he had already said it long ago, the Spring and Autumn Annals are his witness!
Time is short and must not be wasted.
He said calmly: "What should I pay attention to when practicing the Double Golden Pill?"
Qingyi was not an ordinary person either. She immediately changed her mindset and replied, "You have already passed the most difficult step of reconciling the two elixirs. From now on, you just need to maintain the balance. However, from now on, you must prepare for the thunder tribulation. Don't even think about it. You will definitely face nine thunder tribulations in the future. This is a great test, but also an opportunity..."
After her explanation, Ye Hong already had a clearer understanding of the situation he was about to face. He knew that from the Chinese New Year to the beginning of spring, his top priority was to find a way to overcome the tribulation - according to his previous experience, thunder tribulation could mostly be used to temper the body, but very few people could do it.
If you don't take advantage of your good fortune now and make further progress, your chances of success in doing things will be even lower when your fortunes turn unfavorable in the future.
After thanking him solemnly, Ye Hong asked about the method of tempering the body through thunder tribulation.
Qingyi frowned upon hearing this, took a deep breath to suppress the surging blood, and forced herself to calm down, "You really are not afraid of death! You act impetuously and recklessly without considering the consequences."
Ye Hong saw the essence of it and asked directly, "How long has it been since Hua Zong produced a Heaven-grade Spiritual Root? Never! This means that past experience is very likely to fail in my case. On the contrary, what the ancient emperors have done is what I want to do. Only by doing it can I know if I can do it."
People always like to use past experience to judge future events, and past inherent thinking and experience may be limited.
Things are constantly developing and moving forward, and any node in them may be different, which means that the future world may not be the same as the past or present world. Past experience cannot judge future events, so the rules that were valid in the past or present may not necessarily hold true in the future.
Many mistakes people make come from inappropriately generalizing the rules within a certain boundary to outside of that boundary.
Qingyi's expression changed slightly. After thinking for a while, she sneered and retorted: "According to your logic, your past actions were correct, but the next step may not be correct."
"Then let me die!"
He showed no sign of weakness and was extremely tough. "If I die, it means I'm not strong enough and I've slacked off in my practice. I deserve to die!"
Qingyi was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding why her mild words could cause such a big reaction. She was a little overwhelmed, and then she shouted, "Are you threatening me? What does your death have to do with me? You are brave and aggressive, and you love to show off. Your actions are like walking on a cliff. Even if you win many times, you will lose everything if you make a mistake in the future."
On the one hand, she warned Ye Hong, but on the other hand, she was really worried about this traitor.
The master was right. This character is so similar to hers in the beginning!
It's funny to say, this was the first time that she was so emotionally moved by an outsider. After realizing this, she quickly understood that this meant that she at least had certain feelings for him, so she wanted to correct his words and deeds and make him a good and obedient child.
"I told you, you underestimate me."
Ye Hong now never lacks the courage to express his true self. A man who dares not express his true feelings is cowardly and shameful.
It was like he used to be obsessed with playing the role of a perfect son in front of his mother, and he didn't even dare to ask about such important matters as the possibility that she had a new boyfriend. He deliberately hid his excessive desire for possession for fear of getting hurt, and refused to communicate with his mother. What's the difference between this and a coward?
If there is no change at all after traveling through time, then it would be a waste of time.
Having said that, Qingyi could only coldly say: "If you are really not afraid of death, go find my mother. She has what you want."
Ye Hong thanked him again and was silent for a moment. "Next question, I want to know the most painful experience between Master and Grandmother Shenhe."
This question is really offensive and can be said to be blaming someone for something they didn't like.
Because everyone has scars in their hearts, and once they are touched, it is very painful. It is natural for people not to want to look back. If at this time someone deliberately reveals the scar, or even uses other people's pain to seek excitement, then they really want to kill.
Qingyi sneered in her heart, but then she heard Ye Hong say solemnly: "I want to accompany you."
"what?"
"I know it's arrogant to say this, but I wasn't there for you in the past, but I want to be there for you now."
"...What kind of perverted logic is this?"
However, she was moved by these inexplicable words, and was willing to fall into pain again for him. She gritted her teeth and recounted the unbearable memories.
……
That year, Qingyi was twelve years old.
At such a young age, his cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building, which can be regarded as a rare genius.
But unfortunately, she is the daughter of Liu Shenhe, and it is no exaggeration to say that she has enemies everywhere. If she does not practice hard, her life may be in danger at any time.
After the age of twelve, the innate Qi brought from the mother's womb completely dissipates in the body, and the path of cultivating immortals becomes more difficult and sluggish.
That night, Shen He finally couldn't stand his own daughter's cowardice anymore and pointed his sword at her.
Young Qingyi lay naked on the bed, covered with the quilt. Her lower body was sticky and she begged her mother desperately, saying that she would never do it again. But her crying could not stop the sword from falling.
The sword was so painful that it cut open her snow-white and soft belly, causing her to faint from the pain.
When she woke up again, she had already reached the Golden Elixir stage. The only Water Dragon Pearl in the world became her external elixir, but all her past efforts were in vain. She finally had the power to protect herself, but was it all worth it?
Only after her mother left did she dare to curl up in the blood-stained quilt, covering her belly and crying sadly.
Originally, she loved her mother very much, but because of this ruthless sword, a bloody crack inevitably appeared in the relationship between them, and at the same time, her unrealistic expectations and love for her mother were also cut off neatly.
When all the efforts and contributions are denied and one is also burdened with so-called moral blame, one suddenly feels that using love to explain it all is so pale and powerless.
Chapter 109: Breaking the Heart's Defense
When the old things were brought up again, Qingyi's flawless face gradually became sad, and her eyes were filled with unwillingness and despair.
Ye Hong was deeply shocked, but because he had never personally experienced the despair and pain that was so heavy, he felt a sense of isolation in his heart and was unable to empathize.
Her tragic past was only a sad story to him.
Qingyi's delicate body couldn't help but tremble. She asked, "Are you satisfied now?"
Ye Hong did not answer, but rushed over and hugged her shoulders. Her body-protecting Qi was like nothing to him. When she realized this, she had a strange expression on her face and gritted her teeth and said, "Let go!"
"I regret."
"what?"
"I said I regret it." Ye Hong said it quite calmly, but his words were vague.
