Chapter 35: Choose one of two options, which would you choose?



A moment later, the two came out of the bedroom.

Upon arriving in the living room, I found that Su Liuli had been waiting there for quite some time, and had even drunk half of the tea in her cup.

She smiled slightly and said calmly to the two of them, "I am very pleased to see that you two have such a good relationship."

Xu Xinrou blushed and remained silent, while Su Nian gave Su Liuli a strange look.

Having witnessed such a scene, instead of running away, they just stayed in the living room calmly drinking tea?

However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Su Liuli, like Xu Xinrou, had entered the Quanxiu Sect to cultivate since childhood and had never been exposed to knowledge about sex in her life. Even when she met men outside, she would be respectfully addressed as Fairy Liuli, and no one would dare to act presumptuously in front of Su Liuli.

But this is ultimately just speculation.

He couldn't be sure whether Su Liuli was feigning composure or mistaken their intimate actions for normal interaction between senior and junior disciples.

Never mind, this isn't important.

He casually asked Su Liuli, "Did Fairy Su come here to see me or Senior Sister Xu?"

Hearing Su Nian address Su Liuli as Fairy Su instead of Master, Xu Xinrou couldn't help but worry about the relationship between the two.

Su Liuli looked at Su Nian with complicated emotions. "I came here mainly to check on your injuries, Nian'er."

"Then there's no need for Fairy Su to worry. I'm in good health and will be fine after a little rest."

"Nian'er..." Su Liuli bit her lower lip lightly and asked, "Do you really... no longer want to call me Master?"

Upon hearing this, Su Nian remained silent for a moment.

In truth, Su Liuli herself is not a bad person.

She was deceived by Ye Hua, which led her to make mistakes step by step, expelling him from Quanxiu and causing Quanxiu's family to be tragically wiped out.

But would Su Nian be able to forgive her like that?

Obviously not, because it's not the first or second time she's been willing to believe Ye Hua.

No matter how you explain it to her, the final result will not change.

Everyone has their own destiny. Since Su Liuli's ultimate fate is to assist Ye Hua in wiping out Quan Xiu's entire family and then be thrown into the alchemy furnace to be refined into pills, then let her be.

All I want in this life is to take good care of all those who are kind to me, and take them to a peaceful place where they can spend the rest of their lives in tranquility.

"Fairy Su." Su Nian cupped her hands, her voice respectful. "Everyone has their own destiny, wealth and honor are determined by fate. I am not fortunate enough to enjoy the resources Quan Xiu has given me. The Illusion Demon case has taught me one thing: Quan Xiu is not a safe haven for me. Life is long. Becoming an immortal is the end for cultivators, but not the end for life. More than becoming an immortal, I now want to spend the rest of my life with the people I cherish. And my future home is not suitable to be built here. Master, this is probably the last time I will call you Master. I only beg you to let me leave the sect. I swear that if I acquire any good treasures in the future, I will have someone send them to me as a way of repaying your kindness in raising me for so many years."

Xu Xinrou clutched her chest, looking at Su Nian with concern.

She was considering whether she should leave with Su Nian if Su Nian left.

Su Liuli felt a sharp pain in her heart, and as she looked at Su Nian, her eyes welled up with tears.

She hid it very well, and not a trace of sadness showed.

However, one could still sense the sorrow in her words: "After so many years of companionship, even a stubborn rock has developed feelings. Nian'er, I was wrong about the Illusion Demon case, and I apologize to you here."

As she spoke, Su Liuli stood up and bowed deeply to Su Nian.

Xu Xinrou covered her red lips in surprise.

Not only her, but even Su Nian was extremely surprised.

This usually aloof and proud master actually bowed down to one of his disciples?

After bowing, Su Liuli looked at Su Nian again and said earnestly, "I swear that from now on I will never again believe the slander of others. I will always investigate the truth before making a decision. Nian'er, can you forgive me now?"

Su Nian remained silent.

Xu Xinrou also watched Su Nian, hoping that the two could reconcile.

However, under their expectant gazes, Su Nian still said resolutely, "Fairy Su, I really can't accept such a generous gift. I will return the favor to you double!"

After saying that, Su Nian knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

He stood up again and said calmly, "Fairy Su, may I ask you a question?"

Su Liuli sighed softly and said, "Tell me, as long as I know it, I will definitely tell you."

"Is it the Second Elder's idea for you to let me stay in the sect?"

Su Liuli paused for a moment and said, "It is both the Second Elder's intention and my intention."

Su Nian smiled and said, "Is it because I demonstrated the power of the Dao's origin?"

"...The Grand Elder did say that you are a rare genius in the Nine Provinces, and that you will surely achieve great things in time."

"So, the reason you want me to stay isn't because of me, but because you value my talent."

Su Liuli hurriedly said, "That's not it! I want you to stay so I can make up for the mistakes I made before!"

“Fairy Su…” Su Nian took a deep breath, “Do you think that once a knife is inserted and then pulled out, the wound will disappear?”

Su Liuli was speechless.

Su Nian turned around, his back to Su Liuli, his head down, his bangs obscuring his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression. "I have one last question for you."

"What?"

"If you had to choose between me and Ye Hua, who would you choose?"

Su Liuli hesitated for a moment.

Su Nian shook her head and sighed deeply.
