Chapter 183 The Heavenly Snow Lotus Aims for Immortality 13 ...
This shows that her method was correct.
However, that wasn't enough; Zhang Xuelian wanted to come up with a better first encounter for herself.
First impressions are very important.
Because of this, she couldn't think of a good solution. Should she appear in front of him openly and honestly? Although she knew he might not necessarily hurt her, it was still possible that he would become wary.
Appearing secretly? That would be too impolite, something a goddess wouldn't do. So after much thought, she came up with a solution: entering someone's dream.
In his dream, the snow lotus of Tianshan Mountain transformed into human form and healed his legs. However, in reality, it was just a flower, and his legs were not healed. This huge sense of disparity made it hard not to feel emotional.
This also serves as a prelude to her upcoming appearance.
All I can say is let her think of a way, but she can't come up with any good ideas anyway. Just like when she thought of using scary methods to gain emotional points, neither of them are the right way.
However, Zhang Xuelian thought it over and over and decided to go with it.
So, that night, Cui Dong had a dream. In the dream, it was still dark, and he was awakened in the middle of the night by a very bright white light.
Looking up, he saw his Tian Shan snow lotus transform into human form, and he was stunned and couldn't come to his senses.
The person before them possessed an ethereal and distant aura, unapproachable. Their white robes were dazzling, like celestial garments, radiating a light that was clearly not found in ordinary clothes. The awe-inspiring effect was indescribable.
However, when you look at her face, you can't see clearly no matter how hard you look, as if you are surrounded by a fog, full of mystery, and you feel a little dizzy if you look at it for too long.
Cui Dong looked at her and fell silent.
Neither of them spoke. After what seemed like an eternity, Zhang Xuelian couldn't stand the staring contest any longer and finally asked, "Aren't you going to ask me who I am?" Even though it was just a dream, he didn't know.
This reaction is a bit strange.
Cui Dong glanced around, then his gaze returned to her. He closed his eyes briefly, then opened them again, and the same scene remained before him.
Finally, with no other choice, he asked, "What's your name?" His voice was hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time.
My heart was pounding, I didn't know if it was from excitement or something else.
Although Zhang Xuelian felt this reaction was a bit strange, she still said it, "My name is Xue." Logically, she should have said her real name, but for some reason, she gave a fake one.
She probably also felt that goddesses and demons should be distinguished.
Ah Xue is a goddess, and the demon is Zhang Xuelian.
Thinking of this, a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes. She clearly wanted to become an immortal, so why did everyone treat her as a demon?
Upon hearing the name, Cui Dong murmured, "Ah Xue, what a beautiful name." Xue means pure white, just like the aura she exudes.
Then he gazed at her quietly, unable to get enough of her. So, she was the Tian Shan Snow Lotus? Where was he? Was this a dream or reality?
He found that some of them were indistinguishable.
Zhang Xuelian frowned as she noticed him staring at her. "What are you looking at?" she asked. "Why are you staring at me like that? Has he discovered something?"
She dared not underestimate these chosen ones; the previous one had even caused her to suffer a setback.
Cui Dong said honestly, "I noticed your clothes are glowing, they look good." He nodded emphatically when he said the last two words, as if to say that he was telling the truth.
If Zhang Xuelian still couldn't see his strangeness at this point, she'd be a fool. She simply assumed it was a lingering effect of the dream. It was quite amusing that someone who appeared gentle and refined in reality, yet somewhat ruthless in his actions, seemed so dazed and foolish in the dream, like someone who was drunk.
She glanced at the celestial image she had deliberately created with her spiritual power, feeling somewhat smug. She thought he had good taste; this dream had cost her 150,000 emotional points, and a piece of clothing was nothing to her.
In this dream, she could do whatever she wanted.
If she were in Hong Kong, she wouldn't be so generous, spending 150,000 without batting an eye. But now she has the right to be capricious.
Thinking of this, she felt she could grant him one wish. "What do you want? I can help you fulfill it." Considering the endless stream of emotional points he was receiving, she would help him even if he asked for treatment for his leg.
Saving a life costs 200,000 yuan, but treating both legs only requires 150,000 yuan.
She rarely showed kindness, but when Cui Dong heard this, his eyes flickered, and he made a wish that had nothing to do with it, "I want to see what you look like? Is that alright?" He looked at the person in front of him who was shrouded in a cloud of mist and whose face he could not see clearly, and said earnestly.
He never considered that healing his leg would come at a price. If her abilities were truly that strong, she wouldn't have remained in the form of a Tian Shan snow lotus, especially since she looked wilted when she first brought her back.
Zhang Xuelian asked, puzzled, "Why?" Compared to this, isn't his leg more important? She never expected him to make such a request.
Strange humans.
Cui Dong looked at her blankly, a hint of innocence in his eyes.
This scene was obviously staged by him, because he didn't know how to get along with this pure-looking deity. Even though he knew she had seen him countless times in reality, he still hoped she would like him.
However, Zhang Xuelian still refused. "The appearance of a god cannot be seen. I cannot grant you this request, but I can heal your legs." She said, looking at him. At least Cui Dong's act was quite successful.
She found him quite interesting in her dream and didn't want to see the disappointed look in his eyes when he woke up.
Shock, joy, or confusion—aren't all of these better than disappointment?
Cui Dong belatedly asked, "Thank you?" He looked a little dazed, but quickly added, "Won't this harm you? If it does, then it's not necessary." He enunciated each word carefully, his eyes filled with concern for her.
Anyway, his legs have been useless for so many years, so he doesn't care if they're useless for a few more years.
He had already given up hope on these legs, hadn't he? He secretly concealed a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Zhang Xuelian looked at him and uttered two words, "No." After waiting for a long time and confirming that he really thought so, she looked at him with even more doubt.
Strange humans. She thought to herself again.
The next day, when the sun shone through the window, Cui Dong had to shield his eyes from the glaring sunlight. He felt like he hadn't had such a good night's sleep in a long time.
Seeing that it was already eight o'clock, he froze, and instinctively got out of bed to wash up and go to the company.
However, he had barely landed and taken two steps when he stopped again, staring in shock at his legs. He could walk; he no longer needed a wheelchair. This immense sense of shock made him feel as if he were in a dream.
Shock level +1,000,000
Speaking of dreams, Cui Dong seemed to have a dream yesterday. He looked at the Tian Shan snow lotus beside the table and walked towards it. "Is it you?" It healed his leg.
The scenes from his dream flashed through his mind like a slideshow. Cui Dong concealed the darkness in his expression, never expecting himself to be so cunning in his dream, actually deceiving the deity and making her believe that there was something wrong with the dream he had created.
Guilt Level +100,000
However, he did not regret it. She seemed to like the way he pretended. If it could make her develop a little bit of affection for him, what did it matter if he pretended?
He can pretend for a lifetime.
Zhang Xuelian watched as over a million emotion points were directly deposited into her account, and instantly felt that her choice was right. Otherwise, how many emotion points could she get from a dream?
However, it remained motionless, unable to understand what he was saying.
It was just an ordinary snow lotus from the Tianshan Mountains.
However, it would be better if it were a regular Tian Shan snow lotus. You should know that the climate environment in which Tian Shan snow lotus grows is extremely harsh, but it can ignore this growing environment and survive indoors. This is something that a regular Tian Shan snow lotus cannot do.
Thinking of what she said in his dream, "A deity?" Cui Dong looked at it, a hint of possessiveness flashing in his eyes.
What he bought is his, regardless of any gods or spirits involved; it's all his.
However, ever since he learned that it could transform into a human, he bought a lot of women's clothes and jewelry in the next room. Every time he bought a piece, he would ask the flowerpot if she liked it.
She bought the items that moved slightly, and didn't buy anything if the leaves didn't move. Once her walk-in closet was full, thinking of the exquisitely beautiful fairy robes in her dream, she felt that these mundane items were hardly worthy of her.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Cui Dong's eyes. What good was all the money he had? Could a deity possibly be interested in these clothes?
Hearing his apologetic tone, Zhang Xuelian realized that she wasn't actually that demanding, insisting on wearing those glowing clothes. A slightly nice outfit could cost millions of emotion points; she'd be crazy to spend so many emotion points on a single garment. Perhaps she'd consider it again when she had more money.
However, seeing his possessiveness growing stronger every day, she wondered if something was amiss. Although his emotional value was increasing daily, his gaze seemed to be becoming more and more frightening. This completely overturned Zhang Xuelian's initial belief that this chosen one was a good person.
Sure enough, those who become the chosen ones are all bad people.
