Chapter 116 Leaving the Secret Realm: The Love of the Ultimate Strongest
Xie Jiaoyue has a very good grasp of her own persona.
She is first and foremost a good daughter.
Gong Shirao treated her very well; the young lady from a prestigious family turned into a fierce shrew, all to give her a stable and comfortable life.
Secondly, she is a love-struck person who is extremely infatuated with Chu Xingjin.
Chu Xingjin is her "destined" love tribulation, and her future Daoist partner whom she will never give up, even if it means going through fire and water for him.
Xie Jiaoyue not only believes this herself, but she also hopes that others can agree with her choice.
So she sought advice from those around her.
Director Baili didn't understand Xie Jiaoyue's words at first, and asked her to confirm, "Jiaoyue, are you asking if you love Chu Xingjin?"
The fact that Director Baili had been addressing Chu Xingjin as "Young Master Chu" but addressed Xie Jiaoyue as "Jiaoyue" from the start already indicated his bias.
Xie Jiaoyue nodded: "Yes, I feel that Brother Xingjin seems to doubt my feelings, so I would like to ask for the Director's opinion."
Director Baili looked at Chu Xingjin, who was writhing under Xie Jiaoyue's grasp, and found it all unbelievable.
Chu Xingjin had long lost his former aloof and unique demeanor, and the spirited youthful vigor was gone. His clothes were covered in dust, his hair was disheveled, and he looked utterly wretched.
A future star standing on the clouds, suddenly fell from the clouds.
This kind of thing is not surprising. No matter how talented you are, you are just a future star. When the future is yet to come, you are just a star. If others are willing to fawn over you, you will be on cloud nine. If others are not willing, you are just a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.
What surprised Director Baili was that the two of them were at roughly the same level of cultivation, both at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and both having just broken through. Logically speaking, Xie Jiaoyue shouldn't have such a suppressive force.
He couldn't help but use his spiritual sense to probe the two of them, and found that although both were in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, Xie Jiaoyue's cultivation was solid and substantial, while Chu Xingjin's cultivation was weak and ethereal, as if he were still in the clouds, clearly indicating that he had just suffered an injury.
When I first came out of the secret realm, I was surrounded by spiritual energy. How come I was suddenly injured?
Director Baili couldn't help but glance at the Qingyuan Sword, which was already in the hands of the Qingyuan Sword Master.
I understand. Chu Xingjin originally didn't intend to give away the sword; he intended to keep it as his own natal spirit sword. Later, when his lie became untenable, he decided to give away the sword to salvage the situation.
Drawing the sword, which had already begun to fuse, from his dantian would inevitably cause some damage. Facing Xie Jiaoyue at full strength in this state, he would be caught off guard and suppressed. Xie Jiaoyue's subsequent suppression did not rely entirely on her own strength, but rather on a chain-like magic weapon that bound Chu Xingjin's hands, which at first glance appeared somewhat charming.
Chu Xingjin is a cunning man; he'll deceive one place after another until he's completely exposed.
I must say, he has a pretty strong mentality.
After finishing his gossip about Chu Xingjin, Director Baili began to seriously observe Xie Jiaoyue.
You wouldn't believe it until you see it. Xie Jiaoyue's round, doe-like eyes were filled with endless love, a love so intense it was like a summer thunderclap, shocking everyone who saw it and making them realize that such intense love could exist in the world.
Director Baili had always been alone, without a Daoist partner. Looking at Xie Jiaoyue with unwavering conviction, he replied, "Of course, no one can question your love for Chu Xingjin."
He patted Xie Jiaoyue on the shoulder: "Jiaoyue, you did the right thing. This is how the love of the strong should be. When difficulties stand in our way, the weak think of taking detours and retreating, while the strong will only use their indestructible power to flatten everything and crush all obstacles."
Chu Xingjin is unwilling? Then force him to agree!
This is the love of the strong!
Director Inagichi, who had indeed had a Daoist partner, remained silent.
Strictly speaking, Baili Tao of Jinling City can be considered Baili Yun's brother. Although they are from different places, the fact that every one of Baili Tao's beloved relationships has ended is well-known throughout the Baili family.
Now she finally knows why.
Just as Baili Yun was about to speak, she heard Director Wan express his agreement from the side.
“Bai Litao is right. What is a strong person? It is someone who should protect their Daoist partner, accompany and educate them, and let them grow up healthily under their care.”
Baili Yun felt a headache coming on. What was Director Wan saying? Was she taking care of a child or looking for a Daoist partner? Old Wan, you've already been divorced three times, don't you have any self-awareness?
Then, the Chief of the Western City, who was far away, also began to express his opinion: "Jiaoyue is not old, but she has a lot of experience. What to do if your partner is disobedient? Just give her a beating and some medicine and she will listen to you?"
Baili Yun thought of the obedient male cultivators that Director Jue had raised. Could it be that the seemingly gentle and weak Director Jue was actually such a wild person in private?
Is this reasonable?
Is she the only one in the entire Southwest Region's Heaven and Earth Bureau who has a normal and happy marital relationship?
This makes her seem very abnormal!
Baili Yun even began to doubt herself. She frowned and thought for a while before finally saying, "Well, Chu Xingjin went too far this time and should apologize to Gong Shirao. Chu Xingjin suffered a lot in his childhood and had no one to guide him. It is not wrong for you, Jiaoyue, to discipline him appropriately, but you should pay attention to the method and not go too far and damage the relationship between the two of you."
At this point, the four directors had already characterized Xie Jiaoyue's actions.
The directors have already made their judgments, so why would anyone else speak ill of Xie Jiaoyue?
Besides, what can they say? At most, they can say Xie Jiaoyue is extreme, but can they say Xie Jiaoyue doesn't love?
No! They simply cannot! No one can withstand the pressure from four directors and say that Xie Jiaoyue does not love Chu Xingjin!
She absolutely loves it! This is what true love should be like!
The system that had been chattering in Xie Jiaoyue's ears quieted down. Xie Jiaoyue took the initiative to ask about her character's background and received praise from the system for her excellent acting skills.
The system also expressed its own doubts: "Host, why does the data show that everyone here acknowledges your affection, but the person you expressed your affection to doesn't? This doesn't seem to conform to the conclusions usually drawn from data."
Xie Jiaoyue sobbed in her mind: "Oh, what should I do? I love him so much, but he doesn't appreciate it at all. Ah Tong, what should I do?"
The system data flashed erratically for a moment, then decided that, given the current situation, it should reassure the host: "Don't worry, you're just cannon fodder. You may experience similar scenarios many more times in the future."
Xie Jiaoyue's face darkened; Ah Tong was far too good at comforting people.
She pressed Chu Xingjin's head down hard, forcing him to kowtow to Gong Shirao.
I'm happy.
