Before Su Diandian could react, the person opposite her leaned forward again, putting one arm around her waist and pressing the back of her head with the other.
What happened to being an upright person?
Where did this noble spirit of righteousness go?
What a hypocrite, that damn repressed pervert!
He actually tried to take advantage of her right from the start!
In her anger, Su Diandian bit down hard on Shan Yunting's lips.
But Shan Yunting showed no sign of letting go, and the smell of blood filled their mouths.
You scoundrel, are you pulling this stunt?
Su Diandian grabbed Shan Yun with one hand and struck down with her other elbow with tremendous force.
“Mmm…” A sound escaped from Shan Yun’s throat.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Su Diandian grabbed his hair and pulled it back sharply.
Their lips finally parted, and she spat several times before bursting into a tirade.
"Shutter Cloud Stop? What's wrong with you?"
The person opposite Shan Yunting had her hair pulled, but she didn't resist at all.
Su Diandian tossed his hair aside, stood up, and took a few steps back.
Su Diandian muttered under her breath in the darkness, "He calls himself a gentleman, someone who values rules and regulations, oh ho ho..."
"What a despicable, shameless, and vile person!"
“Su Dian…” Shan Yunting finally spoke after a long silence, but his voice seemed to tremble.
"What?" Su Diandian replied irritably, "Don't talk to me about the murder case. I have reason to suspect that you are abusing your power for personal gain."
"That guy isn't dead at all, is he? You're just trying to take advantage of me, aren't you?"
"Yes," Shan Yunting readily agreed.
He paused, then continued, "I had been searching for you until I learned of your whereabouts from Pei Jue."
"How do you know he's talking about me?" Su Diandian was skeptical.
“There are many photo-remembering stones set up around the outskirts of Ascension City,” Shan Yunting explained.
"Good heavens, real-time city surveillance!" Su Diandian was completely dumbfounded.
At this moment, Shan Yunting suddenly blurted out, "I disagree."
It's completely baffling.
Su Diandian rolled her eyes. "I don't care if you agree or not. No, what do you disagree with?"
In the darkness, Shan Yun clenched his fists tightly. "A letter of divorce? I don't agree."
"Oh." Su Diandian found another place to sit down. "It's fine if my sister agrees to this on her own."
She kept rambling on, "Besides, you're not the only one who disagrees, but nobody can stop me from going home."
"Go home?" Shan Yunting's voice was filled with doubt. "According to my investigation, you grew up in the town of Xuancangzong."
"You did a background check?" Su Diandian wiped the blood from her lips. "I'm not the Su Diandian you married. My body is, but my mind isn't."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but complain, "You know what? The only way I can go home is to die, but I just can't die."
"This broken body, what kind of immortal holy body is this? It's absolutely outrageous, it's ridiculously outrageous."
After another period of silence, Shan Yunting suddenly asked, "If that's the case, why not cultivate properly? Shattering the void and ascending to the upper realm might allow you to find your way home."
Su Diandian glanced in his direction, then rested her chin on her knees.
Do you think I don't want to?
"Stop, Flash Clouds. Let me ask you, how long has it been since there was a record of ascension in the cultivation world?"
Shan Yunting fell into deep thought.
Su Diandian answered for him, "The last record of an ascendant in the cultivation world is from two thousand years ago."
“Master Weiying of the Yunmiao Immortal Sect,” Shan Yunting added.
"So, do you think it's faster to die or to ascend to heaven?"
Su Diandian sighed again as she spoke, and her whole demeanor became dejected.
"I originally thought that seeking death would be faster, but I never expected that seeking death and ascending to immortality are both as difficult as the road to Shu."
"I just want to take a shortcut to get home faster, why is that so difficult?"
"Tell me, why has no cultivator ascended to the upper realm since Wei Ying?"
She looked up at Shan Yunting, whose outline she could only make out.
“Something is missing,” Shan Yunting replied.
"What is that?" Su Diandian asked curiously. "Is that thing easy to find?"
Shan Yunting didn't answer her question, but stood up and walked towards her.
Su Diandian was on guard. "What? What? What are you planning to do now?"
Shan Yun Ting didn't speak, but instead waved her sleeve, rendering her unable to move.
I knew that old Bi Deng had no good intentions; she even thought he was the most normal of her ex-husbands.
Shan Yun bent down and approached her, gently touching her forehead to hers.
Su Diandian kept talking: "Shan Yunting, you scoundrel, you better not let me catch you."
"Once I get out, I'll let the entire cultivation world know that you're a hypocrite who looks virtuous on the outside but is actually wicked."
"If you dare do that kind of thing to me, I'll make sure you're childless!"
"You bastard, you're not allowed to use your mouth or your hands, get out of my way."
Her words were brilliant, but Shan Yunting made no further move.
She couldn't see his expression and didn't know what he was thinking.
Just as she was catching her breath, she suddenly felt a burning sensation in her forehead.
Fifteen minutes later, Shan Yunting withdrew from her forehead.
"Hey, hey, hey, what did you do?" Su Diandian asked angrily.
After a moment of silence, Shan Yunting finally spoke: "It is indeed an immortal body. There is something strange in your spiritual center, but I can't see what it is."
“I’ve been to the depths of the Lingtai.” Su Diandian realized she could move again.
She rubbed her forehead and continued to explain, "There's a tree inside, and it's full of fruit. Inside the fruit are fruit people who look exactly like me."
