Chapter 204: Truth, Lies, Praise
Aguna decided to leave with Qin Luan and others and travel around Kyushu.
Before leaving, she said goodbye to her parents, but saw her father kneeling at the door with his head lowered, as if he had done something wrong.
"Father, why are you kneeling outside the door? Why don't you come in?"
"Your mother suddenly got angry for no reason and ordered me to get out of the house. I didn't realize my mistake and was not allowed to enter the house."
The high priest's wife is also in the Nascent Soul stage, and in terms of actual combat ability, she is even the best among the Gu clan.
Faced with such a strong wife, the high priest had no choice but to get out of the house.
"Did you say something to mom?" In Aguna's impression, her parents loved each other and never quarreled. Why did they...
"Emperor Jiang Renhuang once told me that women don't like to hear the truth, so you can't tell the truth to women. So when I walked in, I said to your mother the opposite of what I wanted to say. You are the ugliest woman I have ever seen. Marrying you is the biggest tragedy in my life. I really regret it."
“……” Aguna was silent.
"Don't worry, Emperor Jiang must have anticipated this. This is a test for me." The high priest knelt on the ground, full of confidence.
The high priest of the Gu tribe is selected through the Gu Immortal Secret Realm, and the selection criteria have always been an unsolved mystery of the Gu tribe.
Aguna suddenly understood why the Guxian Secret Realm had such a standard for selecting the high priest.
Legend has it that the reason why the Gu Immortal acted extreme was that he fell in love with a sweet-talking man, who deceived the Gu Immortal so badly that he has not been able to get out of the sadness for thousands of years.
Aguna guessed that this was why the Gu Immortal set up a secret realm and set standards to select the man with the lowest emotional intelligence in the Gu tribe to face the Gu Immortal.
This way, the Gu Immortal doesn't have to worry about being deceived by men with sweet words.
Although the high priest no longer faces Gu Immortals, the criteria for selecting the high priest has never changed, so my father was able to become the high priest.
"It turns out that women don't like to hear the truth." Qin Luan nodded, indicating that he had learned something.
Seeing this, Song Ying panicked and quickly held Qin Luan's face with both hands, and said seriously: "Listen, I know you worship Emperor Jiang, but you can't learn everything. Emperor Jiang also said in the Great Zhou Imperial Academy that authority cannot be trusted completely."
Qin Luan's EQ is already low enough. If he learns Jiang Renhuang's tricks, the day when he and Qin Luan can establish a relationship will be a long time coming!
"Do women like to hear the truth?" Qin Luan was puzzled.
"Of course, as a woman, I naturally listen to what men say." Song Ying said shyly, her expression and tone full of suggestion, "For example, let me ask you, who do you think is the most beautiful woman around you?"
Qin Luan spoke the truth: "Recently, a white fox girl appeared in my dream. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."
For some reason, Qin Luan had been having dreams recently, and in each dream he saw a beautiful white fox girl with gorgeous clothes, furry fox ears and a fox tail.
The white fox girl taught Qin Luan carefully in the dream, telling him that his recent practice method was not appropriate, that there were some problems here that needed to be improved, and that there were advantages there that he should continue to maintain.
Moreover, the white fox girl had extraordinary skills and knowledge, and she even practiced with Qin Luan. Qin Luan's combat experience grew rapidly in his sleep.
Song Ying almost got her nose crooked with anger.
Where did this vixen come from? She's trying to steal my man?
The little white fox sat steadily on Qin Luan's head, looking at Song Ying with its innocent big eyes.
What bad intentions could the little fox have?
"Then just tell a lie." Song Ying said dejectedly.
"Song Ying, I like you."
Song Ying was ecstatic, her eyes were shining, and she seemed to be on the verge of a breakthrough.
He asked in a trembling voice: "Really?!"
Qin Luan looked at the inexplicably excited Song Ying with a strange look: "Of course it's fake. Didn't you ask me to tell a lie?"
“…”
Song Ying only hated that his cultivation was not as good as Qin Luan's and he couldn't pin Qin Luan to the ground and beat him up.
Aguna on the side was silent. Was it too early to decide that she liked Qin Luan?
"So do you want me to tell the truth or a lie?" Song Ying's sudden surprise confused Qin Luan.
Now Song Ying couldn't figure out whether women liked to hear the truth or lies.
“In fact, what women like to hear is neither the truth nor lies, but nice words that praise them.” Yuan Wuxing is an experienced person after all, and he pointed out the misconception in thinking in one sentence.
Yuan Wuxing was furious when he saw how slow his disciple was. He was so slow, when would he be able to fall in love? How would it affect his cultivation if he didn't fall in love?
Yuan Wuxing felt that Qin Luan’s cultivation speed was very fast, and if he continued like this, he would catch up with him sooner or later.
This won't do. It's better for your master to take on such a tough job as the Emperor of Man. You should just focus on dating and building a harem.
Qin Luan suddenly realized, why didn't you tell me earlier, it turns out that women like to hear words of praise.

"Song Ying. You are the best fighter among all the women I have ever met. You must be the biggest obstacle on my road to becoming the Human Emperor!"
Qin Luan felt that this was the best compliment to Song Ying.
As a cultivator, who doesn’t want to become stronger, who doesn’t want to become the emperor?
What he said was tantamount to saying how terrible Song Yingqiang was.
She must be very happy.
Yuan Wuxing held his forehead with his hand. It was impossible to expect this kid to fall in love. It would be better for him to seize the time to practice and break through the Spirit Transformation Stage as soon as possible. Then he could compete for the throne of the Human Emperor with his absolute advantage in cultivation.
…
"Thank you Brother Jiang for your guidance." Commander Mu felt that he had gained a lot after listening to Jiang Li's speech.
He secretly decided that after dealing with the matter of the demon cultivator, he would use the theory he learned from Brother Jiang to pursue Aisu.
Colleagues, wait for my wedding! Commander Mu was full of confidence.
[Quest: Feiyun Chamber of Commerce holds an auction. You get a lot of spirit stones from the Guxian Secret Realm, which is a good opportunity to equip yourself. At the auction, you and a disciple from an aristocratic family set their eyes on the same treasure. The other party felt embarrassed because he didn't compete with you, so he holds a grudge. After the auction, the other party intends to teach you a lesson. Please defeat this disciple from the aristocratic family and his followers.]
[This task cannot be abandoned]
[Task Reward: A set of swordsmanship, a copy of the fusion stage cultivator's insights, and one hundred high-quality spirit stones]
The system had previously issued a task, asking Jiang Li to go to the Guxian Secret Realm and reach the last level.
Since [it is not recommended to give up this task], Jiang Li chose to give up.
That's why Jiang Li asked the high priest if there would be a love Gu reward if someone else passed the last level. The high priest said that the most outstanding woman of the Gu tribe's previous generation was still there.
The previous generation of the Gu clan was exactly five hundred years ago.
It seems that the most outstanding woman of the previous generation of the Gu tribe was the woman in the system timeline with whom he had an ambiguous relationship.
The Gu clan does not have the God Transformation Stage. The fact that the woman has survived until now means that she is in the Nascent Soul Stage, and she is a Nascent Soul Stage who has taken a longevity pill once.
Jiang Li secretly saw the woman outside the window. Now she is an old lady with a frail appearance.
Jiang Li did not choose to meet the woman with whom he was supposed to have a relationship. Instead, he left a few longevity pills for the high priest to give to the woman and left the Gu tribe.
"The past cannot be changed." Jiang Li sighed.
