Chapter 61 [Jiaozhu] A tiger in trouble is bullied by a dog
Just when Shen Lian felt he was about to suffocate, A Jiang suddenly kissed his lips, helped him breathe, and then floated to the surface.
His hands rested on Ajahn's broad shoulders, clasping Ajahn's neck, and his body leaned against Ajahn, breathing in the air around him deeply.
At this moment he was very weak and his face was pale, only his lips were red from being kissed by Ajahn. After he surfaced, his face turned red, red and flushed.
"This is the consequence of you lying to me." A Jiang's breathing was very chaotic. He raised his hand to touch Shen Lian's red cheek. "If there is a next time, it won't be as simple as just a kiss. I can follow your wishes, but I can also stop your thoughts."
Chen Lian clenched his fists unconsciously. He didn't understand why A Jiang was still able to have such a strong cultivation base to suppress him even though he had clearly poisoned Lady Xiang. He couldn't figure out what went wrong and why things didn't develop as he expected?
A Jiang held Shen Lian's slender waist with one hand and swam to the shore.
When they were only ten feet away from the shore, Chen Lian broke free from A Jiang's arm, held on to the stone wall of the bridge, and climbed ashore with both hands.
Ajahn followed closely behind.
After leaving the water, A Jiang changed his attitude. He conjured up a long robe and gently put it on Shen Lian, which was completely inconsistent with the powerful and domineering mermaid in the water.
"Master, don't catch a cold."
A Jiang's voice was in Shen Lian's ears, and then Shen Lian caught a glimpse of the curvature of A Jiang's mouth, which seemed to have increased by several degrees, looking extremely creepy.
He didn't know how much strength Ajiang had hidden, and when he saw Ajiang like this again, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
He took off the robe that Ajahn had put on him and used the cleansing technique. All the water droplets on his body were cleansed and he returned to his normal appearance.
"This spell is really convenient. Master, can you teach me?"
Chen Lian glanced at A Jiang, said nothing, walked straight into the house, and then closed the door, preventing A Jiang from entering the house.
After turning him around, he was startled. A Jiang suddenly appeared from the pond inside the house. Before he could react, A Jiang had already come ashore and blocked him against the door.
"Why are you running?" A Jiang said with a hint of displeasure. "Did I do something wrong, or serve you poorly, and make the Master angry?"
Only then did Chen Lian feel fear. The fear of the unknown, the fear brought by the mermaids in the deep sea, was even more chilling.
He was about to cast a spell to push A Jiang away when his wrist was grabbed again. "Are you curious? You clearly defeated Xiang Meiren, but I was still able to suppress you?"
Before Shen Lian could speak, A Jiang continued, "Because I was born with a spiritual fetus. Since you care so much about your cultivation, practicing with me will definitely greatly increase your cultivation."
"I practice the ruthless way..." Shen Lian pretended to be calm and said coldly, "I will not practice dual cultivation with you."
"..." Upon hearing this, A Jiang gripped Shen Lian's wrist even harder, as if he wanted to crush his wrist bones. "What's so good about the ruthless way? Why don't you switch to the way of happiness and share the bliss of the world with me?"
He only now knew that Chen Lian was practicing the Way of Mercy, but what he didn't know was the real reason why Chen Lian resisted dual cultivation. So he couldn't understand. If he wanted to increase his cultivation, wouldn't the Way of Joy be faster?
As long as we keep practicing dual cultivation, why do we need to cut off love and desire like the ruthless way?
A world without love is too bitter.
He remembered that the woman his brother was attached to also practiced the Way of Ruthlessness, and his brother respected the woman's thoughts and severed ties with her.
He didn't want to repeat his brother's path. He wanted to be with Shen Lian. He didn't want Shen Lian to practice the ruthless way because it was too difficult.
"Let go." Chen Lian stretched out his other hand to grab A Jiang's hand that was holding his, but A Jiang was one step faster and grabbed his other hand as well.
His hands were raised above his head by the Ajahn.
"what are you up to?"
"Break your ruthless path." A Jiang said it without any hesitation. He just wanted Chen Lian to switch to the practice of Hehuan. He didn't want to follow his brother's path. His brother had a very hard life and died without even remembering to see that woman.
"Get out!" Chen Lian roared and struggled to break free, but A Jiang restrained his wrist with one hand. He had just been soaked in water and had been kissed, so he was weak and could not muster any strength to break free.
Ah Jiang leaned closer, wanting to kiss Shen Lian, but Shen Lian acted as if he would bite Ah Jiang's lips if he dared to come over, "You dare!"
"Why wouldn't I dare? Don't forget that before I became your servant, I was the King of Mermaids."
A Jiang did not continue with his previous idea but instead grabbed Chen Lian's waist, causing the other person's body to lean forward and stick to his lower body.
"Do you feel it?"
Chen Lian swallowed, he was a little shocked at the size of A Jiang. He thought his was big, but A Jiang's was probably more than twice as big as his.
"We mermaids have..." A Jiang's voice gradually became softer. He leaned over and whispered something in Shen Lian's ear. Shen Lian's pupils shrank sharply, and his desire to resist became stronger.
"No, if you're like this, what's the difference between you and those people?" Shen Lian rarely cried, but now his nose was sore and his eyes were filled with tears, then overflowed. He was feigning indignation, trying to make A Jiang feel sorry for him. This was how he had deceived those people in the past, and then killed them with a single blow.
"Those people?" Ah Jiang didn't care too much. He didn't even give Shen Lian a chance to speak. He knocked the man down and pressed him under him. His hands tightly covered the back of the man's head, fearing that he would be bumped. "I'm not interested in your past. I only want the present you."
"I don't want you to practice the ruthless way."
"I want you to be my queen."
"Wouldn't it be nice for us to live in King Bei's palace and have a few more little mermaids?"
Chen Lian had different ideas from A Jiang. He could not accept not having any cultivation. He was bullied because he was too weak. After he became the sect leader and practiced the ruthless way, he tasted the sweetness of becoming strong. He did not want to go back to the past and did not want to be slaughtered suddenly.
"No, I don't want to. You can't force me. In the world of cultivation, those who can be married must love each other. You said you want to follow the rules of the world of cultivation, but I don't love you!"
Chen Lian's jaw was trembling, and the veins in his neck were bulging. He spoke word by word, his reason prevailing. "Is a dignified king speaking so recklessly?"
A Jiang was silent. He looked deeply at Chen Lian and said, "No need to tie the knot. I worked out a contract a few days ago."
A Jiang let go of Shen Lian's hand, cut a cut on his own hand, and cut another cut on Shen Lian's palm. Then the two hands merged into one and clasped together. The blood in the palms flowed out and surrounded the palms of the two people, forming a red rune, and then turned into two bright red beads, which were worn on the hands of the two people respectively.
"This is a marriage contract. It can't be established without love. Now I use this contract to prove that you have me in your heart." A Jiang let go of Shen Lian's hand, and the bloodstains on their palms gradually healed. "You love me."
"Of course I can treat you like this."
Chen Lian couldn't find the words to express his feelings at the moment. He looked at the red string on his wrist. He didn't expect that he, who was so cruel and ruthless, could actually love someone? Could it be that A Jiang was deceiving him?
For some reason, when he heard the news, he felt a strange warmth in his heart, like the kind of warmth that comes from having gone through so much but still being able to stick to one's original aspirations. However, he knew that what has been experienced is experienced, and his heart can no longer be as pure as before.
"So why don't you want to?"
"I don't believe it."
Hearing this, A Jiang raised Chen Lian's hand, which was also wearing the marriage beads as his own, and said, "The marriage beads have appeared. Whether you believe it or not, this is true."
Chen Lian avoided A Jiang's gaze. It wasn't that he didn't believe in the marriage beads, nor did he not believe in A Jiang. He just didn't believe in himself. He was so cruel and vicious, but God still had mercy on him.
He has done so many bad things, yet there are still people who love him and have feelings?
When he was young, he felt that love was the purest thing in the world, something that no one could trample on.
The person he respected the most besides his father was his brother. However, his brother, his eldest brother, took the lead in bullying him and wanted to force him. He did not think it was his eldest brother's fault, but rather that he had done something wrong and accidentally killed his eldest brother. He had always regretted it during the years of wandering, so he wanted to join the Cang Qiong Sect and become a ruthless and ungrateful person.
He doesn't deserve to have emotions. Having emotions will only make him hurt and kill people. He wants to isolate himself.
It was not until he actually entered the sect and interacted with his senior brother that he realized that his senior brother deserved it and was not worthy of his affection. He told his senior brother all his past experiences. He trusted his senior brother very much and thought about him all the time.
His senior brother also told him about his secret practice of the Hehuan Dao, so he believed that he and his senior brother were the closest people in heaven and on earth.
It was not until his senior brother apologized in front of him from time to time, intentionally or unintentionally, that he realized something was wrong. After several confirmations, he realized that his senior brother never regarded him as a junior brother, but as a cauldron.
He was afraid that the past would repeat itself, so he poisoned his senior brother.
Chen Lian pulled his thoughts back because A Jiang had already kissed his lips and rubbed them.
He pushed Ajiang away and wiped the moisture off his lips.
"No one can break my way." Chen Lian swallowed and struggled to get up, but A Jiang behind him chased him relentlessly and soon pushed him down again, "I don't want to be deceived..."
"I love you and will never lie to you. Believe me." Ah Jiang bit Chen Lian's earlobe. "Believe me."
Chen Lian stretched her hands forward, trying to escape from A Jiang's palm, but her waist was held tightly by the other party and she couldn't break free at all. They were connected together, intimately connected.
"Believe me, Queen..."
Chen Lian looked at A Jiang in confusion and shook his head vigorously. He wanted to use his spiritual power, but A Jiang suppressed him so hard that he couldn't use even a little bit.
He didn't dare to shout out loud, for fear that someone outside the yard would hear him and come in to check and discover this scene.
He was so tired that his consciousness gradually became blurred.
