Chapter 18 The Deception of Becoming an Immortal is a Fake

Even the system couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but complain.

[Host, did you ride a rocket? That's way too fast!]

Ling Yuanyuan didn't take it to heart.

They're all adults; what's wrong with being attracted to beauty? The most important thing is that the other party is a High God. With the High God's protection, how could she possibly be afraid of Jing Xuan Yue?

Knowing what Ling Yuanyuan was thinking, the system remained silent.

Shen Zhi had not expected Ling Yuanyuan to be so direct in expressing her feelings.

His expression changed.

Just when Ling Yuanyuan was almost convinced that time had stopped, the man dazedly raised his hand and gently touched Ling Yuanyuan's face, his fingertips slightly cool.

"Why."

Ling Yuanyuan asked in confusion, "What do you mean, why?"

He stopped and withdrew his hand.

Perhaps because the night was so dark, the stars shone brightly on his clothes. Even Ling Yuanyuan's gaze became somewhat hazy.

He chuckled softly, in a tone he himself was unsure of.

Repeated 10 times —

"We've only met a few times, why do you dare to like me?"

That's true.

Ling Yuanyuan spread her hands: "I think you are a good person, and of course you are very good-looking."

His heart pounded, and Shen Zhi quietly glanced at Ling Yuanyuan.

He approached her.

He opened his lips.

“How could I, reeking of corpses, be worthy of the daughter of the Minister of Justice?”

end.

Shen Zhi spoke, his eyes still gentle. In his years at the Censorate, Shen Zhi had dealt with far too many disgraced officials in the capital. His hands were stained with too much blood, even if he hadn't killed them.

He was indeed not a good match for her.

Moreover, he had always considered her a good friend.

What kind of slutty talk is that?

How could she, a mere mortal, dare to touch Shen Zhi, a supreme god?

Ling Yuanyuan gazed at Shen Zhi with deep affection.

Prepare to refute.

Fang Bai rushed over in a hurry. Ling Yuanyuan looked up, looking displeased at being disturbed. She saw a woman following behind Fang Bai.

The woman was covered in blood, clutching her money bag tightly in her hand.

The woman's face looked very familiar.

Xia Yuan'er? ??

Ling Yuanyuan's eyes widened.

Wasn't she in Qiliang Town? How did she find her way here?

He stopped frowning.

Fang Bai explained that Xia Yuan'er had secretly followed their carriage the entire way. They traveled on and off, arriving in the capital a few days later than them. Along the way, she was almost robbed and assaulted by bandits.

She fought back and was injured.

Fang Bai couldn't bear to see Xia Yuan'er, a young girl, sleeping on the streets alone, so he took her back to his residence.

Xia Yuan'er's eyes lit up the moment she saw Ling Yuanyuan, and she let go of the money bag.

Only then did I feel at ease.

The woman closed her eyes and collapsed heavily to the ground.

Ling Yuanyuan: "..."

This person's soul is like a piece of chewing gum.

You can't shake them off.

Seeing Ling Yuanyuan's feelings towards Xia Yuan'er, Chen Zhi said, "If you don't want to see her, I'll have Cong Bai take her to a nearby clinic."

Ling Yuanyuan waved his hand.

never mind.

Shen Zhi and Fang Bai are men, and they have many inconveniences in moving around.

Besides, the clinic was already closed at that time. Even so, Xia Yuan'er was still a girl, no matter what.

Ling Yuanyuan paused for a moment, and her tone softened.

He suggested, "Why don't we let her stay here for a while?"

Afraid of disturbing Shen Zhi, Ling Yuanyuan looked at Shen Zhi.

"If that doesn't work, I'll take her back to the Ling residence tomorrow."

Shen Zhi glanced at Ling Yuanyuan.

Chen Zhi: "It's alright, you can stay as long as you want."

Ling Yuanyuan helped Xia Yuan'er back to her room. She dampened a handkerchief and wiped away the bloodstains from her face.

Fortunately, Xia Yuan'er wasn't hurt anywhere.

She only cut her wrist while resisting the robbers.

Ling Yuanyuan lowered her eyes, looking at Xia Yuan'er's almost perfect face.

Even when a woman is asleep with her eyes closed, she is still incredibly gentle and beautiful.

Does she resemble her?

Ling Yuanyuan stared at her wound for a long time. Then she applied medicine to Xia Yuan'er and bandaged it up.

If the female lead gets tetanus, she will die.

After finishing everything, Ling Yuanyuan was exhausted.

She pushed Xia Yuan'er's body further in and lay back down on the bed herself.

When Xia Yuan'er woke up, the pain from her wound had subsided. Hearing faint breathing beside her, Xia Yuan'er paused, startled. Remembering the beautiful figure she had seen before she fainted, Xia Yuan'er got up.

They discovered that Miss Ling was sleeping to her left.

There was still a basin with bloodstains on the table.

Did she change her dressing?

Xia Yuan'er thought to herself and reached out to poke Ling Yuanyuan's cheek. Ling Yuanyuan looked somewhat similar to herself, and Xia Yuan'er had been shocked when they first met.

He even suspected that Miss Ling might be his father's illegitimate daughter who had been abandoned.

But now it seems that Miss Ling is even more charming and adorable.

I wish we could be sisters.

Xia Yuan'er couldn't help but think.

Ling Yuanyuan was awakened by Xia Yuan'er's intense gaze. Ling Yuanyuan looked at her; Xia Yuan'er was silently shedding tears.

He looked extremely sad.

Ling Yuanyuan cleared her throat, disliking seeing others cry.

"Crying like this will easily aggravate the wound and make it hurt more."

"If you're feeling down, go outside and jump into the sea."

"You won't feel pain when you're dead."

Xia Yuan'er's crying stopped abruptly: "?"

really.

Hearing Ling Yuanyuan's comforting words, she stared at Ling Yuanyuan in bewilderment.

“Miss Ling, you are clearly very kind, why do you say that?” Xia Yuan’er said.

Her eyes were filled with gratitude for Ling Yuanyuan.

Xia Yuan'er knew.

The silver was sent by Shen Zhi through Ling Yuanyuan, who also knew that Ling Yuanyuan had helped her when she was injured last night.

Ling Yuanyuan touched her nose.

"Fang Bai saved you, it has nothing to do with me. If you're free today, you should go see a doctor. I don't know any medicine, so I can only give you a rough bandage."

Hearing Ling Yuanyuan's words, Xia Yuan'er smiled faintly.

She smiled and shook her head: "It's bandaged very well."

After a while.

Xia Yuan'er hesitated before asking, "Miss Ling, could you come with me?"

Ling Yuanyuan: "..."

Ling Yuanyuan instinctively wanted to refuse, but Xia Yuan'er's eyes were too soft and gentle.

Seeing that Ling Yuanyuan remained silent, Xia Yuan'er's watery eyes welled up with tears. She called out pitifully, "Miss Ling."

sigh.

Ling Yuanyuan got up and started tidying up, saying, "What a hassle."

Xia Yuan'er smiled.

She knew that Miss Ling wouldn't abandon her.

Ling Yuanyuan noticed a smile on Xia Yuan'er's face.

no.

How did the tea end up on her?

Ling Yuanyuan looked away.

The two followed the path Fang Bai pointed out and headed south. Heaven knows if Ling Yuanyuan had known she would encounter Xuan Yue Xianjun, she would never have left the Shen Mansion with Xia Yuan'er.

Jing Xuanyue bumped into Xia Yuan'er, who was being helped away by Ling Yuanyuan.

He was completely shocked.

He originally thought that Ling Yuanyuan would have calmed down by the end of the night, and he would come to pick her up.

But at this moment.

Jing Xuan Yue's gaze was completely drawn to Xia Yuan'er. Jing Xuan Yue stared intently at the human soul, obtaining it effortlessly.

Ling Yuanyuan took a step back.

Xia Yuan'er asked, puzzled, "What's wrong, Miss Ling? Do you know this person?"

Ling Yuanyuan grabbed Xia Yuan'er's hand.

They turned and ran.

However, Jing Xuan Yue, dressed lightly, rode her horse and blocked their path in an instant. Xia Yuan'er didn't know why Ling Yuan Yuan ran away as soon as she saw Jing Xuan Yue. But if Miss Ling didn't like someone, Xia Yuan'er wouldn't like either.

Jing Xuan dismounted his horse under the moon.

He looked at Xia Yuan'er with a gentle expression.

“Yuan’er”.

She spat.

It's unclear whether he was calling for Xia Yuan'er or Ling Yuanyuan.

When Jing Xuan Yue last saw Xia Yuan'er's celestial soul, he used magic for her.

Therefore, there was no time to reminisce with his beloved.

The man's voice trembled slightly, but more so with reluctance and longing.

Xia Yuan'er disgustedly flung her sleeves away, "We don't know this young master at all, and you're blocking my and Miss Ling's way."

Jing Xuan Yue paused for a moment before remembering their current identities.

The man regained his composure.

Then he smiled and looked at Ling Yuanyuan.

Feigning ignorance, he asked, "My dear child, who is she?"

Ling Yuanyuan: "..."

Are you blind?

Ling Yuanyuan grabbed Xia Yuan'er, attempting to escape in a different direction.

Jing Xuan Yue frowned, realizing his intentions had been seen through. It was normal for Xia Yuan'er not to recognize him and to resist him. But Ling Yuan Yuan, in this life, was the daughter of the Minister of Justice, with whom she was betrothed.

From the moment they met yesterday, Ling Yuanyuan's attitude towards him was anything but polite.

Did she come to the human world with her memories?

impossible.

The idea only lasted a moment before Jing Xuan Yue dismissed it.

Ling Yuanyuan was sent to the mortal world by him personally.

Jing Xuan Yue lowered her eyes and took out the Soul-Locking Token from her sleeve.

Ling Yuanyuan's eyes widened, and she was about to push Xia Yuan'er away. Xia Yuan'er was caught off guard and was once again taken back by Xuan Yue Immortal Lord.

Ling Yuanyuan: "!!!"

Damn it.

Ling Yuanyuan rushed over in anger, but before she could even accuse Jing Xuanyue.

Everything went black.

*

She returned to the heavens.

When Ling Yuanyuan angrily went to find out the cause of her death in her second life—she was so excited to see her fiancé that she suffered a heart attack and died suddenly.

What kind of ridiculous cause of death is this?

Ling Yuanyuan threw the book at Xingming Xianjun's face.

He was so angry he gritted his teeth.

The Star Destiny Immortal picked up the book.

With a composed expression, he said, "At least your extremely auspicious destiny has already changed."

With wide eyes, Ling Yuanyuan exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

The Star Destiny Immortal nodded: "Your act of applying medicine and bandaging to the soul is a good deed. It's even better than before, and more suitable for resurrecting Fairy Yuan'er."

Ling Yuanyuan: "..."

The Star Destiny Immortal Lord said again, "Little demon, it's not that I'm saying this."

His expression was serious.

"Could things not go wrong so quickly during my tribulation? I don't know when I'll be able to shed my lover's tears again."

Ling Yuanyuan remained silent.

Is this something she can choose?

Before sending her down to the mortal realm, Immortal Lord Xuan Yue had already decided on Ling Yuanyuan's fate.

The same applies to slaves and wealthy families.

The Celestial Lord of Destiny remained silent.

"Or, you could report Jing Xuan Yue's desire to revive Xia Yuan'er to the Heavenly Emperor and Empress," Ling Yuan Yuan suggested, a sudden idea popping into her head.

Star Destiny Immortal Lord shook his head: "The Empress will kill you the moment she sees you, and extinguish the thoughts of Xuan Yue Immortal Lord."

Ling Yuanyuan touched her chest with lingering fear.

The memory faded.

Ling Yuanyuan inquired about the matter intentionally or unintentionally.

“Star Destiny Immortal Lord, do you know anything about the High God?” Ling Yuanyuan asked.

The Star Destiny Immortal looked at Ling Yuanyuan with suspicion.

Although Shangqing Heaven and Xuanshen Realm are both regarded as thorns in the side by the demon realm, the heavenly realm and the divine realm rarely interact with each other.

Moreover, the supreme deity delights in stillness, and his divine whereabouts are unpredictable.

Even during the great war in the demon realm, no supreme god ever appeared.

The Star Destiny Immortal Lord stared at Ling Yuanyuan: "Who do you want to ask?"

Ling Yuanyuan was about to say Shen Zhi's name.

Thinking that Shen Zhi was still alive, Youyou swallowed his name back.

I was afraid of delaying Chen Zhi's plans.

"No, I'm just curious. You said that people in the Immortal Realm have to undergo tribulations, but what about the High Gods?"

The Star Destiny Immortal Lord breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought Ling Yuanyuan had offended someone again.

He replied, "Having become a god, there is no need to undergo tribulations."

so……

Those who remain in the human realm must have memories of the divine realm.

Ling Yuanyuan curled the corners of her mouth.

If she has the chance, she should cling to Shen Zhi's coattails. If Xuan Yue Xianjun ever tries to rip out her heart again, it will be much safer with Shen Zhi around.

Ling Yuanyuan left the Star Destiny Palace.

Two lifetimes in this world, gone in an instant.

Ling Yuanyuan was filled with sorrow for this cold world.

She wanted to learn some magic so that she wouldn't die at the speed of light again in her next life.

"You want to learn magic?" Mu Ye exclaimed in shock.

Seeing Mu Ye's incredulous expression, Ling Yuanyuan crossed her arms and said, "Yes, why do you look like that?"

Mu Ye hesitated.

I hesitated for a long time.

Only then did he explain to Ling Yuanyuan, "Yuanyuan, you are a demon. Your magic is not compatible with our immortals."

She rolled her eyes.

Mu Ye added, "I don't mean to look down on you, it's just that demons have to put in more effort and pay a higher price to learn magic than we do."

"First of all, you have no spiritual power."

Ling Yuanyuan caught the key phrase: "Spiritual power?"

Mu Ye nodded: "That's right. We immortals are born with spiritual power, which accumulates over time. The more spiritual power we have, the stronger our spells become. Just like demons are born with demonic power. And even if you have spiritual power, your body simply cannot withstand it."

Ling Yuanyuan: "..."

Wait.

Unable to bear it.

"What about tribulation? Can one become an immortal after passing it?"

Ling Yuanyuan frowned.

Mu Ye seemed to have heard something terrifying.

His breath hitched.

Looking at Ling Yuanyuan with a solemn expression, he said, "Tribulation is a matter for immortals; demons must never undergo tribulation. Moreover, in previous years, only immortal lords and fairies who committed serious offenses were punished and sent to the banks of the Yin Chong River."

"You're wronged! You mustn't do anything reckless!"

"When mortals undergo tribulation, if they are not careful, they may not be able to return."

The temperature is the same during the day and night in the celestial realm.

It was still afternoon, but a cold wind suddenly rushed into Ling Yuanyuan's neck.

She looked at Mu Ye's worried gaze.

I just feel sorry for the original owner.

Although she knew all along that Jing Xuan Yue was using her to find the three souls and seven spirits, and that becoming an immortal was a lie.

But Ling Yuanyuan still felt a chill run through her body.

Even though she had thoroughly studied the script, this was still the case.

What about the original owner?

Did the original owner have any regrets when their heart was ripped out?

No wonder the Star Destiny Immortal Lord was willing to help her and didn't report her to the Heavenly Empress.

nausea!
