I’m Lin Yun—born with incredible talent. I thought I’d be trained as a core disciple… but then—
“The demonic sect would never expect us to send someone this gifted as a spy. Once you’re in a ...
Chapter 117 Heaven is fair, and human nature is selfish
Zhao Lingyu could tell at a glance that Hu Yuling must have some feelings for Lin Yun.
It has been heard that Hu Yuling and sect leader Fang Yu are not on good terms. Now it seems that Hu Yuling is trying to poach someone else?
Interesting. This princess likes to see the internal fighting among your sect.
She was feeling happy when Hu Yuling suddenly filled her tea cup and said, "Speaking of which, Princess Nine hasn't seen Junior Brother Fufeng for a long time. After today, he will go to the south again. It should be in time for you to go look for him now."
Zhao Lingyu: “…”
You were so tactful in seeing me off!
Although he was very angry, Zhao Lingyu could only keep smiling and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Uncle Master. I will go find Master first."
Obviously, I was here first, but the situation forced me to leave my target to others. It's really sad.
Lin Yun also noticed something was wrong, and he quickly bowed and said, "Then disciple..."
"Please sit down for a while. I see that you have plenty of fire energy and seem to have learned some fire magic. Coincidentally, today is the day when the Magic Fragrance Fire Lotus matures. I will give it to you as a gift from my uncle."
What Hu Yuling was talking about was the red lotus that attracted Dahong.
Zhao Lingyu's eyes turned into the shape of lemons. She was so angry!
Why was it that when I, a princess, wanted to become a disciple, all the elders avoided me, but now that Lin Yun is here, everyone is so enthusiastic and gives me rare flowers and herbs as soon as they are asked to.
"Well, thank you for your kindness, Senior. However, the fire magic I practiced before was only a minor skill. When I was in Ziyun Cave, I was fortunate enough to comprehend a thunder magic. I don't plan to practice fire magic in the future."
The fire method in the Red Lotus Heart Sutra does not seem to be much different from ordinary fire methods, but Lin Yun himself knows that it is best to use the magical powers from the Red Lotus Sect as little as possible.
What's more, if someone is too nice to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. Lin Yun didn't dare to accept any gift when they were meeting for the first time.
Unexpectedly, Hu Yuling said casually after hearing this: "That's okay. It's good to have many skills. If you want to specialize in thunder magic, I just planted some purple cloud bamboo in the backyard. You can go and cut one to use as a magic weapon later."
Zhao Lingyu: “…”
Jealousy can make a person look unrecognizable.
Is this how these big guys win people over? Giving away gifts until people are satisfied?
Thinking about how she wanted to win over Lin Yun, she only thought of relying on emotional bonds and seduction with her beauty. Now she thinks that she was just too poor.
The clown is actually me?
Zhao Lingyu didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear of hearing more exciting words.
Lin Yun was even more certain that Hu Yuling had ulterior motives, and she had no intention of concealing it at all.
Just that.
Lin Yun simply said directly: "Uncle Hu's kindness really makes me feel overwhelmed."
What I mean is that if you don’t make yourself clear, I won’t dare accept this gift.
Hu Yuling chuckled and said, "You don't have to be afraid. I do have plans for you."
Lin Yun understood and asked, "What does Master want me to do?"
Although Hu Yuling hadn't spoken yet, Lin Yun had already thought about how he would tell the secret later.
I'm a jack of all trades.
"I don't want you to do anything, I just want you."
"ah?"
Lin Yun was stunned.
As expected, the ladies in the world of immortal cultivation are all so unrestrained and straightforward, like Feng Wu who directly invited him to sleep in her bed, and now, there is another one like Hu Yuling.
Alas, is this the trouble of being handsome?
Lin Yun refused in his heart, but according to the law of universal gravitation, it was difficult for him to break free from such a strong gravitational force!
"Don't get me wrong. What I mean is that if your master and I have a disagreement in the future, you have to stand on my side."
That’s it?
Lin Yun suddenly felt very disappointed.
You want me to betray you just by giving me two treasures?
That's impossible. Lin Yun likes the character of his new master Fang Yu very much and has no intention of betraying her for the time being.
"I'm sorry, uncle. I'm sorry that I can't obey your order."
"I'm not asking you to betray your master. This is for her own good."
But forget it!
Lin Yun would never do anything to deceive others under the pretext of doing good for someone, but after hearing what Hu Yuling said, Lin Yun became curious and asked, "Uncle Hu, please elaborate."
This look of negotiation should also help Hu Yuling lower her guard against him, and perhaps she will tell him her plan.
Lin Yun was thinking about this in his mind when he suddenly heard Hu Yuling ask, "What do you think of the current Great Zhou?"
Lin Yun: “…”
This touches upon my blind spot in knowledge.
It has not been long since Lin Yun came to this world, and he did not inherit too many memories from the original owner. He only has some fragmented memories, such as who sent him undercover and how he died.
Some other details of life are vague in those fragments of memory.
Therefore, Lin Yun didn't know much about the Great Zhou.
All I know is that this is an imperial dynasty with seven major sects.
With such little understanding, he dared not judge on his own initiative.
Even if he knew, he was not yet able to open up to Hu Yuling.
Lin Yun could only perfunctorily say: "I think it's OK."
Hu Yuling remained expressionless in response to this meaningless answer. She then asked, "So what do you think of this world of immortal cultivation?"
"Well, I am a junior with low strength, so I dare not make any comments, but I think it's okay!"
Hu Yuling: “…”
Can you give me some other answer besides "okay"?
Lin Yun also complained in his heart, I asked you why you wanted to win me over, you told me what you think of the country, what you think of the world of immortal cultivation, and later you are going to ask me what I think of the way of heaven?
"One last question. What do you think of this world?"
Lin Yun: “…”
The prophet is actually me?
Lin Yun felt that Hu Yuling's brain was somewhat flawed, but as a disciple, he couldn't be disrespectful to the elders, so he could only say: "I am just one of the common people, how dare I criticize the world?"
"Since you are a member of this world, what can't you discuss? Just like you are a disciple of the Divine Sky Sect, you can naturally express your views on the Divine Sky Sect."
Lin Yun: “…”
That's the truth, but do you think I dare to say a bad word?
"I wonder what these three questions have to do with my master?"
"Because your master and I have different views on these three issues, but I can also see that you and she are different. I think you and I may be on the same path."
Hu Yuling's words were full of hints.
Lin Yun was stunned on the spot.
Wow, isn’t this just poaching?
Seeing Lin Yun stunned, Hu Yuling simply stood up, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and said: "The Shenxiao Sect has always spread rumors that your master and I are not on good terms, but that is not the case. I admire her very much. She is upright, compassionate to the world, firm in her Taoism, and hates evil. However, I admire her, but I don't approve of her.
She believes that the way of heaven is fair and humanity should follow the way of heaven, but I think heaven and earth are unkind and humanity is selfish, what do you think? "
Lin Yun: “…”
I'm just a newbie, why do you want to discuss this with me?
