Chapter 84: Eighty-Four Cuts - "How to Become a Love Expert"...
Luo Mingshu fell asleep on Xie Changming's body.
The next day, before she woke up, Xie Changming secretly took back the glass bead she was clutching in her hand.
Luo Mingshu suddenly transformed back into a little dragon, and Xie Changming placed her in his palm.
When Luo Mingshu woke up, she was lying in Xie Changming's palm.
"You stole my glass bead," Luo Mingshu questioned him.
She noticed that, without her noticing, the dark purple light on the glass bead seemed to have increased a little more.
"What exactly is the energy increase of the glass bead related to?" Luo Mingshu asked curiously.
Xie Changming wasn't Yinglong, so he couldn't answer that question. He could only pat Luo Mingshu on the head and say to her, "Anyway, it's a good thing that its energy is increasing."
They stayed in Wei Qing's immortal abode for several days, and on the day that Wei Qing was to play chess with the immortal called "Brother Ye," they followed Wei Qing out.
At this moment, Xie Changming was still in the form of a black wolf. Luo Mingshu was lying on his head. He moved with light steps, concealing his figure, and followed Wei Qing at a distance.
Xie Changming wanted to see what "Brother Ye" was up to, so he didn't rush to make a move. He hid in the bushes and quietly watched Wei Qing and Ye Xuan meet.
Ye Xuan also had a handsome appearance. He waved to Wei Qing, looking more enthusiastic than before. Wei Qing unfolded the chessboard and played a game with him.
Watching the interaction between the two, Luo Mingshu whispered to Xie Changming, "Do you know Ye Xuan?"
“I don’t recognize this person,” Xie Changming said. “I don’t remember any cultivators in the Heavenly Realm.”
"You still remember the fish you raised, right?" Luo Mingshu teased him.
Upon hearing this, Xie Changming chuckled and said, "That's right."
They continued to observe the two's actions. Xie Changming saw Ye Xuan's slightly trembling hands and was basically certain that he was the escaped Immortal Lord. Even if they had grabbed the wrong one, they would just grab someone else. Anyway, he couldn't escape in this exploration scene.
While playing chess with Wei Qing, Ye Xuan looked for an opportunity to strike. Taking advantage of Wei Qing's distraction while he was thinking about the situation, he did not hesitate and attacked directly. His primordial spirit left his body and rushed straight towards Wei Qing's face.
Even Xie Changming didn't expect Ye Xuan to use such a treacherous and despicable method. Just as he was about to step forward, Ye Xuan's primordial spirit had already invaded Wei Qing's body, and Wei Qing was completely unprepared for him.
But just when Ye Xuan thought he had succeeded, Wei Qing's consciousness suddenly rebelled. He had kept in mind the "Little Yinglong" that Ye Xuan had mentioned before, so he was wary of him. Until today, this wariness saved him and prevented him from being devoured by Ye Xuan's primordial spirit.
"Brother Ye, what exactly do you want to do?" Wei Qing flicked Ye Xuan's primordial spirit away and questioned him directly.
"What do I want to do? I just want to survive!" Ye Xuan's lips trembled as he said to Wei Qing, "Only by devouring your divine consciousness and borrowing your identity can I be safe."
“Brother Ye, if you encounter any difficulties, just tell me,” Wei Qing said helplessly. “Also, what’s so strange about Xiao Yinglong’s identity? Isn’t she a descendant of the Demon God left behind in the Heavenly Realm?”
"Only someone as naive as you would think that the Heavenly Realm would take care of Xiao Yinglong for no reason and grant her every request," Ye Xuan said with a sneer. "Brother Wei, someone like you wouldn't survive in the Heavenly Realm."
Wei Qing took two steps back and saw Wei Qing's primordial spirit continue to rush towards him. Although he was stronger, he was more soft-hearted than Ye Xuan, so in the confrontation, he was at a disadvantage.
Xie Changming originally intended to listen a little longer to see what else Ye Xuan could say, but when he saw that Wei Qing was about to give up, he could only pounce on him and suppress Ye Xuan with his powerful aura.
Before Wei Qing could figure out what was going on, he saw Xie Changming and said excitedly, "It really is a good spirit pet, and it can even protect its master. But you'd better run quickly, I'll take care of things here."
Luo Mingshu was furious that he hadn't grasped the situation. She flew off Xie Changming's head and cast a small water ball spell, splashing icy water onto Wei Qing's face to wake him up.
Wei Qing was stunned for a moment. By the time he reacted, Xie Changming, who had returned to human form, was already locked in combat with Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan also stopped pretending to be an immortal and suppressed his cultivation. The powerful force of an immortal lord reverberated outwards.
"You're actually in cahoots with that Yinglong? How could you endure the torture she inflicted on you back then?" Ye Xuan shouted at Xie Changming. "The former Western Realm Immortal Lord only kidnapped you to the Heavenly Realm. You want to overthrow his Western Realm? What, what kind of bewitching potion did that Yinglong give you?"
Xie Changming remained calm. He knew that if it weren't for Luo Mingshu, his situation in the Heavenly Realm would have been a thousand times more dangerous, and he might not have even survived.
Moreover, she wasn't as annoying as she seemed on the surface, so he naturally didn't feel that Luo Mingshu was tormenting him.
After killing the Western Realm Immortal Lord, he originally intended to take Luo Mingshu with him, but after the Pillar of Heaven trembled, the Heavenly Realm fell into chaos, and Luo Mingshu disappeared without a trace.
Xie Changming ignored Ye Xuan's words and continued to launch increasingly fierce attacks, forcing Ye Xuan into a series of retreats.
Seeing that his attempt to sow discord between Xie Changming and Luo Mingshu had failed, Ye Xuan turned his gaze to Luo Mingshu, who was squatting to the side watching the show: "Little Yinglong, because the Pillar of Heaven was damaged, your memories have all faded away, right?"
"The fragments of your memories were collected by the Heavenly Pillar. They were supposed to return to you, but I kept them. Aren't you curious about what happened between you and Xie Changming? Just wait and see," Ye Xuan said loudly to Luo Mingshu.
Luo Mingshu was about to raise her hand to tell him that she wasn't interested, but Ye Xuan had already thrown a dark purple light at her, and she had no choice but to accept this memory.
Ye Xuan intercepted her memories from the Heavenly Realm; otherwise, even if the Pillar of Heaven was injured and her memories were temporarily lost, she would have remembered them sooner or later.
Luo Mingshu was stunned as a flood of memories rushed to her, bizarre and fantastical images flashing before her eyes.
The first half of her memory was exactly the same as what Xie Changming had said: Xie Changming took her to play and cooked delicious food for her.
However, these memories are all imbued with Luo Mingshu's feelings, namely... that she liked Xie Changming.
As a clever little dragon, she had long since noticed the difference between Xie Changming and the other minor gods, but she did not expose Xie Changming's identity.
She likes to stick close to Xie Changming, and sometimes even affectionate nibbling is her way of expressing her affection.
Fortunately, Luo Mingshu had become somewhat oblivious by then, so she didn't realize at first that Xie Changming actually found her annoying.
Of course, Xie Changming didn't dislike her that much. Later, taking care of her became almost a habit.
Luo Mingshu's consciousness entered the body of that adorable little dragon. She had just finished rolling around in the mud pit in the peach blossom forest that day, and Xie Changming had given her a bath.
While taking a shower, his finger accidentally touched her sore spot, and Luo Mingshu was so startled that she bit him. Because he touched her sore spot, the bite was particularly hard, leaving a scar on Xie Changming's hand.
Xie Changming winced in pain, but he wasn't angry with her. He just silently cleaned Luo Mingshu's body.
Luo Mingshu felt a little apologetic, so she suddenly flew up and kissed him on the cheek again.
Xie Changming touched the spot on his cheek where Luo Mingshu had kissed him and asked, "Are you still biting me?"
Because of his words, Luo Mingshu was really angry. She bit Xie Changming's ear several times in anger. This wasn't a kiss, it was biting, to express her anger.
Xie Changming hurriedly removed Luo Mingshu from his shoulder, only to find Luo Mingshu staring at him with her two dragon horns on her forehead glistening, looking somewhat shy.
He felt that there might be something wrong with him. After being in the Heavenly Realm for so long, even a small dragon seemed handsome to him.
At that time, Xie Changming hadn't considered the possibility that Luo Mingshu could take human form, because she was too wild.
However, that night, after coaxing Luo Mingshu to sleep, Xie Changming secretly went to the library in the immortal mansion and searched through the mortal books collected by the heavens.
He was pondering what Luo Mingshu meant by biting his cheek today, since this was the only time she hadn't shown her teeth.
After searching around, Xie Changming actually found the answer. In the mortal book "How to Become a Love Expert", it says: "Kissing is a way to express love."
It took Xie Changming a long time to accept the fact that Luo Mingshu liked him. Of course, he liked Luo Mingshu when she was quiet, but he disliked her a little when she was being naughty.
In short, Xie Changming decided to take Luo Mingshu with him after resolving the matters in the Heavenly Realm.
However, the day he prepared to take action was also a special day for Luo Mingshu. Yes, she had spent a hundred years in the form of a little dragon, and now she was about to transform into human form.
This was also a very important advancement for Yinglong. After practicing secretly, Luo Mingshu didn't tell anyone. She asked the other minor gods in the Immortal Mansion to buy beautiful clothes, just waiting to give Xie Changming a surprise.
She kept quiet about it, and Xie Changming didn't know about it either. It wasn't until he killed the Western Realm Immortal Lord that the Heavenly Realm was thrown into turmoil. Amidst the interplay of firelight and magical light in the distance, Luo Mingshu saw the scattered divine bone wood.
Yes, she saw the divine bone wood that belonged to Xie Changming; she couldn't possibly fail to recognize him.
Luo Mingshu rushed up and hugged the divine bone wood, but was unexpectedly discovered by Ye Xuan. At that time, she had just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, while Ye Xuan was an immortal who had ascended long ago.
As a cultivator from the Western Realm, Ye Xuan knew that Xie Changming's rampage in the Heavenly Realm was an excellent opportunity for him. It allowed him to learn some of the Heavenly Realm's secrets through fortuitous encounters, such as the relationship between Yinglong and Chengtianzhu...
He decided to control Luo Mingshu, but Yinglong was not a race that would bow down to others, so he confiscated Luo Mingshu's memories, threw her into the lower realm, and left some content in her divine sense. Later, he sent cultivators to suppress her.
As for how the Heavenly Realm later investigated how Xiao Yinglong disappeared, he could conveniently shift the blame onto Xie Changming.
Originally, the content implanted in Luo Mingshu's mind should have subtly influenced and belittled her, but perhaps because she had read too many storybooks, one day, all of this content appeared and formed into the content of the storybooks.
When Ye Xuan threw Luo Mingshu down, he didn't notice that Luo Mingshu was still holding the Divine Bone Wood in her arms. Later, the Divine Bone Wood, which originally belonged to Xie Changming, was scattered in the mortal realm and, by chance, was bought back by Luo Mingshu.
