This was probably the easiest time Yan Li had ever faced a tribulation of lightning.
While Wen Yu was confronting her, she opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the streaks of lightning that had been deflected. For the first time, she felt that having a high level of cultivation was a very interesting thing.
Look, even heavenly lightning can't do anything to him in the face of absolute power, and can only let Wen Yu do whatever he wants.
But Yan Li's joy didn't last long.
As bolts of lightning struck, her body inexplicably felt hot, and her veins seemed to be flowing backward. It was as if an invisible force was clamping down on her neck, making it hard for her to breathe.
My heart felt like it was about to leap out of my chest.
It's just hot, and hotter still.
Realizing something was wrong, Yan Li couldn't help but reach out and push Wen Yu away.
But she had barely raised her hand when Wen Yu pressed it down again. He looked up at the three remaining bolts of lightning and softly comforted her:
"Just bear with it a little longer, it will be over soon."
Yan Li felt even more distressed.
Just as she was beginning to suspect that she had been drugged, the final bolt of lightning struck, and she successfully and painlessly entered the Distraction Stage.
The heat inside my body instantly subsided.
It was as if what she had just felt was merely her imagination.
Upon regaining consciousness, Yan Li was speechless for a moment, completely at a loss for words, only sighing softly in her heart:
She really has the potential to be a villain!
…*…
Wen Yu's expression was too calm, but Yan Li could not do the same.
The moment the thunderclouds dissipated.
When everything was over, Yan Li originally wanted to pretend to faint, especially after thinking about what he had done not long ago, the idea became extremely strong.
However, just as she had this idea, Wen Yu was one step ahead of her, suddenly grasping her hand and transferring his spiritual power to her.
She was gentle, unlike the domineering and tyrannical person she remembered.
"Master, your disciple's poison has been cured, you can stop now." Yan Li coughed twice and said as he tried to pull his hand back.
But it ended in failure.
Yan Li pondered in her heart that perhaps one day when she reached Wen Yu's level, she would be able to expend spiritual power like him.
Wen Yu held Yan Li's hand tightly, then looked up at her meaningfully and said softly, "It's alright, there's no harm in it."
"Here you go, just accept it."
"Don't let yourself lose your life because of someone else."
"It is utterly foolish."
Wen Yu spoke one sentence after another.
Yan Li didn't dare to say anything more, but she didn't know where to look, so she lowered her eyes and said, "Don't worry, Master, it won't happen again."
Wen Yu did not respond.
Clearly, he didn't believe Yan Li's words. He raised his hand and made a hand seal, leaving several spells on her body. "These spells can help you escape from the hands of a Nascent Soul cultivator for a moment."
"If we can't beat them in the future, we don't have to always think about taking them down with us."
"If you can't beat them, run away."
Upon hearing this, Yan Li was stunned, staring blankly at Wen Yu in front of her, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
He's perfectly normal.
It was so normal that she couldn't believe it.
"That's enough," Yan Li said, looking at the continuous flow of spiritual energy into her body. Her chest felt like it was blocked by a huge rock, making her feel suffocated. "Master, please stop."
"But I have something extremely important to tell Ali," Wen Yu said, pausing only for a moment before continuing, her gaze slightly lowered.
"If Ali can guarantee that she won't suddenly faint later and listen to the whole thing, then I can stop."
Yan Li: ? She hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Since Wen Yu could say such a thing, it meant that she couldn't simply refuse to listen. In that case, it was better to cooperate.
"Does Ah Li remember what happened in the greenhouse just now?" he said, his eyes fixed on Yan Li, not wanting to miss the slightest emotion on her face.
Wen Yu laid a lot of groundwork, just so she wouldn't scare her.
Upon hearing this, Yan Li, like a snail, merely touched the antennae and then retreated entirely into her shell.
Yan Li: "..."
"Master, you might as well just say what you want to say." Her eyes dimmed, becoming dull and lifeless, and even her tone was extremely dejected.
So he was just like those other people, no different?
She was too naive. How could a master who would do such a thing to his disciple possibly...?
In just a moment, her thoughts were interrupted again.
"What I wanted to tell Ali is that she doesn't need to worry about it," Wen Yu said, and after she finished speaking, she felt like she was going crazy.
Originally, I wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to her, to get her to accept me, or perhaps to legitimately ask for a formal title.
But seeing Yan Li's dejected appearance, as if he had been abandoned by the whole world, he just couldn't bring himself to say it.
"I only wanted to detoxify Ali as soon as possible, so I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. If Ali wants me to take responsibility or wants any compensation, I will agree."
"I just don't want today's events to leave Ah Li with any resentment or inner demons."
Yan Li looked up again at Wen Yu, who was saying these words, and couldn't believe it. She subconsciously asked, "Really?"
Wen Yu: "When have I ever lied to Ali?"
Wen Yu, who almost gritted her teeth to say those words, couldn't fool his heart at all. In fact, because of her repeated insincerity, the evil thought in her heart had been resurrected and was quietly hidden in the deepest part of her heart.
"What if I want my master to find me a Daoist partner as soon as possible?"
Yan Li suddenly realized that her personality was actually quite wicked. Even though she knew that the person in front of her was pretending, she still risked provoking him.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but chuckle softly, even disguising her voice to sound cheerful:
"Does Master agree as well?"
"Disciple has suddenly discovered that the method of dual cultivation is quite good and effective. If I do it a few more times, I might be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm before Master."
Taking this opportunity, Yan Li remarked as if speaking from the heart, "If Master truly wants to make amends to me, then please help me find a reliable Daoist partner."
She spoke haltingly, but very few of her words were false.
Wen Yu's face turned cold as she calmly stared at Yan Li in front of her, her dark eyes filled with lingering anger.
How could she say such a thing so easily?
The method is good, and the results are quick?
Is this her reflection this time?
What about his concerns just now? Was he just being presumptuous?
This was the first time Wen Yu had felt such a strong sense of powerlessness.
But at this moment, Yan Li was still not satisfied and, as if courting death, prepared to pull her hand back from Wen Yu again.
This move forced Wen Yu, who had already reached her limit, to completely compromise.
He reached out his other hand and, without much hesitation, pinched Yan Li's chin. After seeing the undisguised surprise in her eyes, he seemed to laugh in exasperation, leaned down, and kissed her.
