Chapter 11: Childhood sweetheart vs. Heaven-drop? If he treats you like I do, you...
(eleven)
Inside the Shutong Pavilion, the two men stared at each other without giving an inch. The air was condensed and filled with the suffocating smell of gunpowder.
"Since you keep asking me to remarry, it seems you can't wait." Li Shanglu walked to the desk, washed his brush and ground his ink, and spread out the paper. "Well, then, write a letter of divorce now so I can marry someone else."
It’s just a divorce letter, it can be written anywhere, she can remarry anytime and anywhere, does Shen Changyi really dare to write it?
"No."
Chen Changyi refused succinctly, standing still like a stone statue. He turned around, picked up his sword, and was about to leave. "I can't write. My parents once said that I must take good care of you. Whether as a husband or otherwise, this is my responsibility. I can't let you marry someone I don't know the truth about."
He always had so many high-sounding principles, which were exactly what Li Shanglu could not bear to hear. She did not try to stop Shen Changyi, but just picked up the pen and smiled.
"It's up to you. If you don't write, I will."
Before she stepped out of the door with her boots on, Shen Changyi turned around and looked at her in surprise.
"This is a letter of release to my husband. We have been married for three years, and although we have had the wedding ceremony, we have no marital affection. My wife, Li, is named Shanglu, with the courtesy name Yanning. She is different from my husband, Shen, with the courtesy name Shuhe..."
As she wrote stroke by stroke, a shadow suddenly covered her head and the pen in her hand was snatched away.
Li Shanglu looked at him angrily and wanted to take the pen back, but Shen Changyi pinched the pen in front of her, and with a click, the brush slowly broke.
The cold eyes were like a deep pool, covered with gray mountain mist, which made Li Shanglu shiver for no reason.
Here it comes again, this feeling...
My legs became weak involuntarily.
She swallowed unconsciously and was pushed into a corner step by step by the other party.
"Phytolacca."
The voice was calm, without any emotion.
"I told you, there are a lot of bad people in the world."
What nonsense are you talking about? You’re so close to me, I can hardly breathe.
A cold hand suddenly reached up to her waist and slowly untied her belt.
Li Shanglu was startled and quickly held his hand, cursing in a low voice, "You are crazy, Shen Changyi, it's daytime now!"
The door was not closed, what if a sect disciple passed by...
"It's entirely possible that this could happen."
Chen Changyi's eyes fell on her lips, his eyes darkening. "There are many masters in the world of cultivation. Not to mention the extremely cruel demon cultivators, even ordinary men are often dirty and vile. If the man you are talking about treats you like I do, what will you do?"
Li Shanglu was stunned for a moment, and was about to scold him in anger, but Shen Changyi leaned over and kissed him, blocking all the unfinished words.
She had no power to resist, her tongue tip was sucked gently, her will gradually seemed to melt and she was unable to think, until a cold hand touched her chest.
She finally came to her senses after being touched by the fingertips. Her face instantly became hot and she bit his lips hard.
As expected, Shen Changyi let her go. His lips were stained with water and blood. He wiped the blood away with his fingertips indifferently.
"Yeah. Well done."
His expressionless praise made Li Shanglu's legs even weaker. She clearly wanted to say something, but she was afraid that the bastard in front of her would take the opportunity to kiss her or rip open her shirt like last time.
No, no.
It shouldn't be like this.
It should be Shen Changyi who was at a disadvantage and speechless.
Li Shanglu looked at him warily, raising his hand to put on his shoulder to prevent him from being molested. "Don't judge others with such firm words. Helan Jin is not that kind of person. At least he wouldn't be like you, like you..."
Damn it, normally at this moment my head should have a hundred words to humiliate him in different ways, why is it suddenly blank?
Shen Changyi said calmly, "In that case, I will find out who he is."
"Why do you care about me?" Li Shanglu said with a lack of confidence.
Chen Changyi didn't answer her. He turned around and slowly tore up the half-written letter of divorce on the desk, burning even the fragments into ashes with his spiritual energy. "Don't write this kind of thing again until you find the right person. I won't acknowledge it."
The truly suitable person, who is the truly suitable person? It’s up to him to decide!
"If you think it's suitable, then it's suitable. If I think it's suitable, then it doesn't count? I just like him, love at first sight! What? Are you planning to kill him, Lord Sword Immortal?" Li Shanglu really wanted to know what he was trying to do. How could he make her so angry with every word he said.
"Helan Jin, right?"
Shen Changyi suddenly let out a long breath and said calmly.
"I remember that."
After saying that, he turned and left, his figure suddenly disappearing from the spot.
Li Shanglu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
What is this bastard doing?
Killing is impossible. Even if Shen Changyi was really angry and crazy, he would not kill anyone...
Based on her understanding of Shen Changyi, he should have gone to Elder Teng to find out about Helan Jin's identity.
Li Shanglu straightened his collar with regret, wiped the water marks on his lips, looked at the paper scraps that had been burned to ashes on the ground, and stepped on them.
Who did he think he was? They just grew up together, and their relationship wasn't anything special. Yet, he even had to control her marriage. Even her parents had never cared so much.
His hands are also not honest when he is touching his relatives. Who taught him to do this? Did he learn it by himself?

Danfeng, Ziyan Pavilion.
"You're asking about Lan Jin..."
Teng Xu was still a little uncomfortable when he saw Shen Changyi, but he also knew that his brother's death could not be blamed on Shen Changyi. He had been severely taught a lesson by the sect leader before and had already figured things out. The person he should hate the most was the evil cultivator who killed his brother.
He was just a little bit awkward with Shen Changyi now, not daring to look at him, mumbling to himself,
"Lan Jin is a good kid. You can ask the other disciples about this. All the Danfeng disciples have a good relationship with Lan Jin. He likes to socialize and has a funny personality. He has friends everywhere."
Shen Changyi stood there in a daze, listening to Elder Teng's words.
"Marriage? There's no such thing. Although there are many female cultivators in the sect who admire Lan Jin, that kid said he must marry a woman he fell in love with at first sight and who is willing to marry him. He will never leave her and will never take concubines or divorce her. So he rejected them all."
"He comes from a wealthy family. I heard he's from the He family, a renowned alchemy family in Yunxu. Although he's a mortal, he can use poison to exorcise demons. He's the most outstanding of this class of new disciples."
His whole body felt as if being drenched by a waterfall of wind and snow, and it was as cold as deep winter. The sounds in his ears gradually became unclear. Chen Changyi walked out of the hall numbly. The sunlight was scorching, making his vision blurry and black.
No one has ever done better than him. He has tried his best to avoid making any mistakes and become a qualified husband, so much so that he has never thought about what to do if there really is someone more suitable than him.
He comes from a wealthy family, is humorous, loyal to his wife, and can even protect those around him with his mortal body.
——That person finally came and met Shang Lu.
Teng Xu noticed that he looked uneasy, so he quickly caught up with him and waved his hand in front of his eyes. "What's wrong with you? Your eyes are dull. Did you experience any kind of stimulation today?"
Shen Changyi did not respond. His fingertips trembled as he touched the long sword at his waist, but he had no strength to hold it tightly.
"Shuhe, Ning'er is a good child. You two grew up together. Although you are engaged, your parents have never thought of forcing you to be together."
"If one day Ning'er doesn't want to marry you as promised and falls in love with someone else, you must not stop her. It's ungentlemanly to cling to her."
"You should help her make a careful investigation, just like your brother did. If the person Ning'er likes is indeed a good person worthy of entrusting her life to... then let her go."
My heart seemed to be gripped tightly by a big hand. It stopped beating and I could no longer breathe.
father.
mother.
What about me?
What should we do about Shuhe?
The world is silent. His parents have long been buried. No one can answer his questions anymore. He is all alone in his world.
"Chen Changyi..."
A hazy voice sounded behind him, his eyelashes trembled for a moment, and something in his heart seemed to be about to burst out.
"Shen Changyi!"
The familiar voice was like a ray of sunlight breaking through the cold winter, breaking into his world unreasonably and willfully.
In an instant, he turned his head and the soft body crashed into his arms.
Li Shanglu pushed him away breathlessly and slapped him on the shoulder, "Are you deaf? Didn't I hear you calling me?"
Shen Changyi lowered his eyes and looked at her, just watching quietly, without saying a word.
Li Shanglu was no longer surprised by his indifference to others, but he looked dazed, which frightened him.
It felt like Shen Changyi would disappear from here in the next second, and his soul would fly away.
"What's wrong with him?" Li Shanglu turned to ask Elder Teng.
Elder Teng studied him for a moment and said in a deep voice, "In my opinion... he seems to be in a nightmare."
"In a state of panic? He hasn't slept at all." Li Shanglu was unusually anxious. "Can you take his pulse?"
Elder Teng took her pulse and found nothing unusual. He glanced at her and said, "Don't worry. Tell me what he did today."
This cousin is more anxious than the wife. This is the first time I've seen this.
Hearing this, Li Shanglu choked up and stammered, "Nothing, I just had a fight with him."
Elder Teng glared at her and said, "How could you be so rude to him? You are such an ignorant girl!"
"Didn't you scold him before?"
“…”
Elder Teng paused for a moment, knowing he was in the wrong. He took out a pill from his storage ring and handed it over, looking away awkwardly. "Alright, this Qingxin Pill is my apology."
Li Shanglu took it without hesitation and was about to feed it to Shen Changyi when cold fingers gently pinched his wrist.
"Shanglu, I've figured it out."
He looked at her calmly, a faint smile on his lips like the first melting of spring snow, his voice gentle and soft,
"You are good, so you deserve better."
Li Shanglu suddenly stopped moving and stared at him in surprise. He was clearly standing in front of her, but it seemed as if he would leave her forever in the next moment and she would never be able to catch him again.
Shen Changyi took the pill and handed it back to Elder Teng. "I'm fine. Could you please bring Mr. He to me? I want to meet him. After the meeting, if he is also interested in Shang Lu..."
A crisp sound cut off his words immediately.
Shen Changyi was hit on the head without any preparation, leaving a conspicuous red mark on the side of his face. He looked up at Li Shanglu in panic, like a child who had done something wrong.
Elder Teng's eyes widened in disbelief as he stood in front of Shen Changyi and shouted, "Are you crazy? What are you doing, girl? This is the Sword Immortal!"
Li Shanglu's eyes were red as he stared at Shen Changyi, looking past Elder Teng.
"Say another word and I'll kill you."
"Walk!"
Being dragged away by her forcefully, Shen Changyi hadn't recovered from his shock yet and followed her footsteps at a loss.
No one had ever slapped him before, and he touched the red and swollen side of his face in a daze.
pain……
After getting slapped, I forgot everything I wanted to say.
