Chapter 458: Succubus (28)
Liu Yunlai said again, "Throw it away, then leave this place, and don't let me see you again."
Wen Wan looked at Liu Yunlai as if he were a spendthrift.
“I understand that you hate the old man Tianqi, but the right thing to do is to accept these things and not say anything. Tianqi has been dead for more than a thousand years. His soul has dissipated and he no longer exists. The things between Tianqi and your ancestors are ancient grudges from countless generations ago. I don’t think you should let go of them, but why can’t you accept them? The more you hate him, the more you should use his things. That’s what he deserves, so why not use them?”
"How many people can you save with these things? How many cultivators can you recruit? How many dangers can you withstand? You are the city lord, but if I'm not mistaken, you can't be complacent, can you? Behind you is not just your city lord's mansion, but also the people of the entire city. I ask you, if the demon realm invades, will you regret abandoning these things when facing the people of the entire city?"
Wen Wan looked at Liu Yunlai and continued, "Back then, Senior Liu Xiuyun couldn't withstand the invasion of the Demon Clan and had to face death. She did everything she could to protect you. Do you really think that she hated Tianqi before she died, which is why she told her children not to contact Tianqi? You're wrong, terribly wrong. She just knew that Tianqi was very dangerous and didn't want you to step into the vortex. She definitely hoped that her children and descendants could live a peaceful life. If she were still alive, do you think she would want to throw these things away, or use them to protect her descendants?"
Liu Yunlai looked at Wen Wan and said, "You're good at talking, but this is the Liu family rule, and it can't be changed."
Wen Wan: "Then let me ask you, is your family rule more important, or your safety, or your family, or the people of this city? Let me ask you again, this family rule was established by your ancestor Liu Xiuyun, but she is only your ancestor. You have many other ancestors, and each of them has protected the people for so many years. If you are in danger because you adhere to the family rule, shouldn't you die?"
Liu Yunlai: "..."
"Besides, Apocalypse is gone. If you take these things and neither of us says anything, who will know whose they are?"
"Don't tell me you really don't want it. If you really don't want it, I'll give it to you now. Then you can tell me where you threw it and I'll go pick it up. At that time, even heavenly lightning won't be able to strike me. Although I already have the Yin-Yang Separation and Union Formation, which is a peerless formation, I don't mind having too many treasures. It can be considered as fulfilling Tianqi's last wish."
Liu Yunlai: "You..."
"To prevent me from not being able to find it, you can secretly give me a hint about where you want to throw it, and I'll go and stake it out," Wen Wan continued.
"Anyway, there aren't many fools like you in this world. This kind of opportunity is much easier than me venturing into some dangerous secret realm and going through all sorts of hardships."
Wen Wan tossed the things into Liu Yunlai's arms. "I'm staying at the Fulai Inn for now. I'll wait for you there for three days. If you've made up your mind, you can write to me anytime and I'll come and get them."
After saying that, he dashed out of the city lord's mansion. The guards tried to stop him, but Liu Yunlai stopped them, saying, "Let her go."
Back at the inn, Wen Wan quickly had everyone start packing their luggage. Qi Ling, seeing how busy she was, asked, "What's wrong? Did the city lord do something to you?"
They were also very worried about their junior sister being captured and taken to the city lord's mansion.
Wen Wan explained in a few words, "Let's leave now while we can, I don't want Liu Yunlai to actually send the things back to me."
Senior Sister Qiling: "This city lord is a weirdo. He doesn't even want such a treasure that comes to his door. He's incredibly stupid."
"You don't understand, he's just been brainwashed. Hatred passed down from generation to generation isn't so easy to erase."
After packing their things, the group quickly began their return journey.
They were blocked at the city gate. Just as they were about to force their way through, the other party handed Wen Wan a wooden box, saying, "This is a farewell gift from our city lord. He said he would accept it as a thank you gift. If you don't want it, then just throw it away somewhere."
Wen Yan: "..."
"Of course we'll accept it, why wouldn't we?"
Wen Wan quickly took it, and then the guards let them pass, and the group left smoothly.
Many years later, when the demons started causing trouble, these things saved the people of the city.
But that's all for later. Right now, Wen Wan just wants to go back to Mingyuan Sect and live a quiet life. She's decided not to cause any trouble unless absolutely necessary, otherwise it's too dangerous. Once the mission is complete, she'll find a place to live in seclusion or start wandering the world.
...
After returning to Mingyuan Sect, Wen Wan had no way to hide, because she had two master teachers who were both overly eager for her son to succeed. She was extremely busy, and she also had to spend her spare time taking care of the medicinal herbs and spiritual plants in the male protagonist's palace, as well as taking care of the cat cub that always followed her.
Wen Wan was extremely worried when she heard this.
This cat is no ordinary spirit cat; it's practically a part of the male protagonist!
Why is this cat following me around like this? But no matter how hard Wen Wan tried, the cat just wouldn't get close to Li Sha. In the end, Wen Wan gave up and decided to send the cat back to the male lead.
Otherwise, she really couldn't resist, even though she kept reminding herself: it's the male protagonist's soul transformed into a cat, I can't mess with it.
Instinct: Kittens are cute, I want to pet them!!!
If this continues, it will really cause big problems.
Therefore, Wen Wan requested an audience with the Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan.
This time, she grabbed the cat and went along. "If you don't come with me, you can forget about ever touching me again in this lifetime," Wen Wan said fiercely, grabbing the cat that was trying to run away.
cat:"……"
Soon Wen Wan met Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan, while the cat in her arms was listless; it really wanted to run away.
"Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan".
Gu Yuan looked at Wen Wan, then his gaze fell on the cat in Wen Wan's arms. Wen Wan quickly explained, "This is the culprit that ate the spirit plants. I caught it, but I was delayed by something and couldn't bring it over until now. This disciple is bringing it over for the Immortal Venerable to deal with."
The cat clung to Wen Wan's clothes, meowing affectionately, with a hint of accusation.
Wen Wan almost softened her heart, but after thinking about her future, she held back.
"And last time, thanks to the Immortal Venerable for saving me, otherwise I would have definitely died in the secret realm. The same was true in the Chen family. Thanks to the Immortal Venerable for arriving in time, otherwise I would have definitely been struck by lightning and died. The Immortal Venerable saved me twice. Thank you, Immortal Venerable. In the future, this disciple will definitely work hard to cultivate and protect the Mingyuan Sect. I will never let the Immortal Venerable down."
Wen Wan pushed the cat over, and the cat immediately tried to run away. Wen Wan instinctively pounced on it, and then, for some reason, she grabbed the cat and rushed over, throwing it into Gu Yuan's arms.
The cat instantly trembled.
Wen Wan belatedly realized what was happening and trembled, "Immortal Venerable, the culprit is too naughty. I've caught it for you. You should punish it by making it face the wall in repentance."
cat:"……"
I'm not human, you're a real dog.
Wen Wan: Better to die than to die, my friend. I'm sorry.
Gu Yuan's gaze remained fixed on Wen Wan. Wen Wan felt her back was covered in sweat and even wondered if she would expose her identity. No, she had to run away quickly. "Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan, can I leave now? My master is very strict. If I don't hurry up and start cultivating, he will break my legs."
