But emotions, first of all, unless they are intense enough, are not enough to be detected by Feng Xue's foraging radar. Secondly, once she detects this emotion with her foraging talent, she will probably have already taken two bites.

She didn't even need to open her mouth to eat, so of course nothing passed through her esophagus and fell into her stomach. No wonder she couldn't fill her stomach. At most, it was just a small snack with a strange taste.

"I see." Han Qianling nodded, understanding the reason for this conversation: "Miss Feng Xue has sensed my emotions."

"Mr. Han hid it very well. At the beginning, I didn't directly taste your 'hatred'." Feng Xue sighed. "To be honest, I'm embarrassed. Jiujiang kept my affairs secret, but I was aware of his Taoist partner's desire. Unfortunately, it's my nature. I can't suppress it for the time being. So, I tasted your 'love'."

Han Qianling's eyebrows twitched: "Different?"

Feng Xue stared at him for a long time, and after a while she said with regret: "Yours is the most different."

"The purest love I've ever tasted was from Xiao Ren. She..." Feng Xue's voice trailed off, and she sighed almost to herself, "She's just a silly child."

"As for you, Master Han, your love is mixed with too many negative emotions. It doesn't distinguish between the host and the guest, and it's all mixed together. It's so strong that it's really too choking."

“…”

"So even if I didn't taste your hatred later, I would probably still come after you." When Feng Xue said the word "hatred", her expression was blank for a moment. It was obvious that even now, when she recalled the taste of that bite, she still felt her soul was flying. "Let's not talk about hatred for now. I can understand that love has exclusivity, but your 'love' is mixed with too much possessiveness."

"Master Han, please don't blame me for being nosy, but I have to ask you something today - will the next time I see Jiujiang, I'll find him in a cage? Or, after this trip to the Holy Land, will I ever see Jiujiang again?"

Han Qianling's brows twitched, and his eyes seemed to widen a little, revealing a hint of surprise.

"How can Jiujiang be trapped in a corner?"

"He's not willing to be imprisoned in a vast place like the Death Valley." Feng Xue said coldly, "Of course, a small corner of the country won't be able to trap him, but if someone attacks him from behind, he's completely defenseless, that might not be the case."

Han Qianling laughed.

His emotions were rarely affected by external factors, and now he laughed out loud without disguising it, because he really felt that Feng Xue's guess was so absurd that he couldn't even think about it.

"I attacked him from behind? Miss Fengxue, if I could save him even a little bit and benefit the world, do you think I would be willing to do it?"

"..." Feng Xue said honestly: "I don't know why, but I just feel that you are the kind of person who can hold Luo Jiujiang in his arms without blinking, watch the entire holy land explode into a giant firework with a smile on his face, and still ensure that there is not a drop of blood on his clothes."

Han Qianling said kindly: "Miss Feng Xue misunderstood. I won't laugh at a time like this."

Feng Xue: "..." So why don't you refute other speculations? You will just hold Luo Jiujiang and watch the whole thing without changing your expression, right?

"I want to own Jiujiang completely." Han Qianling said without hesitation, "He is the only one I have, so I want all of him."

"From skin to bones, from blood to flesh?" Feng Xue added defensively.

"I want to ensure that he is completely intact from skin to bones, from blood to flesh." Han Qianling said calmly: "I won't eat him. Appetite is too low-level evil. I can control it."

Feng Xue: “…”

After this incident, Feng Xue would no longer think of Han Qianling as a warm-hearted gentleman. She promised that from now on, whenever she thought of Han Qianling, the first thing that would come to her mind would be the alpaca.

"I have no intention of targeting you, Miss Feng Xue." Han Qianling said gently, "I have simply overcome the hatred that was twisted into appetite."

"Let's go back to Jiujiang. Miss Feng Xue, please rest assured. I won't do anything to him that you're worried about... I won't hurt him."

"Judging from the level of possessiveness I've experienced, this promise is truly unconvincing." Feng Xue sighed, "You just said it yourself, you want everything from him. With all due respect, have you ever considered wanting someone's emotions to be completely controlled by you, to have their every smile, frown, sorrow, and pain completely under your control?"

Han Qianling looked at Feng Xue quietly.

"I think you could turn against me at any moment and imprison Jiujiang," Feng Xue said coldly. "Mr. Han, to be honest, I don't trust you. I'm not even sure if you'll ever let Jiujiang see outsiders again. You and I are only separated by a screen, yet you act with such impunity. I even doubt you'll ever be able to get him out of bed again in this lifetime... Not attacking from behind doesn't mean anything. If you want to avoid hurting someone, you cultivators have plenty of tricks up your sleeve."

"..." Even with Han Qianling's temperament and calmness, his pupils shrank slightly when he heard these words.

"I'm sorry, Miss Feng Xue," he said softly, "I shouldn't have asked. But as far as I know, you're probably not married yet, and you don't have any lover. Are these thoughts... something you got?"

Feng Xue said stiffly, "No. There are more unhealthy reading materials in my hometown."

"Birds of a feather flock together. No wonder the girl thinks so much." Han Qianling replied neither lightly nor heavily. From his tone, it was impossible to tell whether it was praise or criticism, but it made Feng Xue feel that she was being invisibly despised.

Feng Xue: “…”

"First of all," Han Qianling replied slowly, "that time behind the screen, it was Jiujiang who got so angry... Maybe I became too relaxed after that, so you remembered it wrongly. But it was Jiujiang who pulled me that time."
