Lin Jingting: "She's very weak..." she said, a hint of impatience in her voice. "How many times do I have to say it?"
Chu Nian was a little confused: "So, you think I'm not her just because I'm stronger than her? But have you ever thought that maybe she was very strong in her past life, but her abilities in that life just haven't been awakened; while your three subordinates successfully awakened her abilities in her past life."
Lin Jingting pondered for a moment and said, "Well, if you put it that way, it's not impossible. Anyway, I don't really care whether you wasted your time or not." After a pause, he asked curiously, "You burned the will you made before, did you think you wouldn't die?"
Chu Nian: "Yes."
Lin Jingting let out a cold laugh, his laughter filled with sarcasm.
Chu Nian: "You think I won't survive?"
Lin Jingting: "I feel that your soul is very strong. There is powerful energy hidden in your soul that can provide me with enough nourishment to break through a major realm in one fell swoop." As he spoke, his extremely handsome face suddenly turned extremely sinister, with bluish-black skin, a red tongue flicking out, and a ghostly mist rising up, making him extremely terrifying.
Chu Nian sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation: "I'm so strong, no matter what nutrients are in my soul, you can't just absorb them whenever you want." You think you can scare me? You're still too naive!
Lin Jingting had no choice but to stop making scary faces and asked curiously, "Why aren't you afraid of ghosts?"
This question excited Chu Nian, who smiled brightly and said, "Guess! I won't tell you that we're the same kind of people."
Seeing that Lin Jingting showed no intention of guessing and remained indifferently silent, Chu Nian felt a little helpless and said, "You're so handsome, what's so scary about a ghost?!"
Lin Jingting: "Where are those three brats from earlier?"
Chu Nian: "You mean those three clowns from earlier?"
A clown? Lin Jingting thought that calling his three subordinates that was really...
Chu Nian: "The clowns aren't scary at all. According to the normal plot, they're all weak, and at most they can only play a minor role."
Lin Jingting: ...That makes so much sense, I'm speechless!
However, he quickly found a retort to Chu Nian: "According to your logic, you were just a clown before because you were so weak?"
Chu Nian struck a flamboyant pose and asked with a smile, "Am I ugly?"
Lin Jingting's lips twitched, she turned her face to look out the window, paused for a moment before saying, "Even if she's not ugly, she's not beautiful either."
Chu Nian: "Only someone who is both weak and ugly is called a clown; someone who is weak but not ugly is called a silly fool, and if you want, you can add the word 'sweet' to the end." She smiled as she said this.
Lin Jingting turned her head and saw that her eyes were squinted into crescent moons as she smiled. She said, "You smile like a fox, so 'silly white' doesn't fit you at all. As for 'sweet,' I don't see it either."
Why is she so good at patting herself on the back? Lin Jingting found the woman in front of him speechless.
But this woman did give him a bit of a problem.
If a woman is not afraid of ghosts, she cannot feel fear; and the three little ghosts blew at her for a long time but could not dissipate her yang energy, so she will not die for the time being; if she does not die, the spiritual power in her soul will not overflow, and he cannot absorb it, so what use is this woman to him if she stays here?
He was about to tell Chu Nian to move out and have someone else move in when he suddenly saw the woman busy moving things.
He asked in surprise, "What are you doing?" This woman had changed the placement of things and actually succeeded in changing the feng shui of the house, which would be very detrimental to his future development.
Chu Nian: "As you can see, I'm going to rearrange the things in this room to make it more suitable for me, a living person, to live in."
Lin Jingting: "You really understand feng shui?" In this degenerate age, there aren't many modern women who understand this kind of knowledge.
Chu Nian: "As I said, I've awakened my former abilities, and of course, some of my memories have also returned." She laughed again as she said this, "I have to thank your three clowns for that."
Lin Jingting's face darkened, and he said coldly, "What if I said that the feng shui here is not allowed to be changed?"
Chu Nian stroked his chin and pondered, "It's not impossible, but you have to agree to a few conditions."
Lin Jingting: "What are the conditions?"
Chu Nian: "First, you have to exchange all the other properties under your name in Jingting Apartment for this property with me."
Lin Jingting chuckled sarcastically, "Don't you think you're being too greedy?!"
Chu Nian: "You're so rich, a few properties are nothing to you."
Lin Jingting: "How do you know I'm rich?"
Chu Nian: It's all explained in the plot! Not only is he powerful, but he's also incredibly wealthy!
Lin Jingting then asked, "Do you know how many properties I own here? Just by listening to the name of this complex, 'Jingting Apartments,' you should know that I developed it."
Chu Nian asked, "How many properties do you still own in this Jingting Apartments?" As far as she knew, most of them had already been sold, but given Lin Jingting's personality, he should have kept only those in very good locations.
Lin Jingting: "Forty-nine sets."
Chu Nian nodded and said, "That sounds pretty good. I can trade with you."
Lin Jingting: "One set for forty-nine sets? Do you think I'd agree?"
Chu Nian did not answer, but continued, "My second condition is that the people you use to practice your skills must be evil people."
In fact, this was not entirely reasonable in her view. After all, the degree of evil varies from person to person. Even if someone commits a minor evil, the punishment they deserve is not enough for Lin Jingting to use it for practicing martial arts.
However, she has no way to deal with Lin Jingting right now, so she can only take it one step at a time and prevent good people from being persecuted by Lin Jingting.
But Lin Jingting countered, "What are the criteria for judging evil people? You judge evil people only from your perspective; but from other people's perspectives, they may not be evil people."
His statement wasn't without merit. Chu Nian said, "Anyway, you can't use just anyone for cultivation."
Lin Jingting: "You seem to know quite a lot, knowing that I would use the creatures imprisoned here for cultivation."
Chu Nian: "Well? Can you agree to the conditions?"
Lin Jingting: "No." What a joke! How could a ghost immortal like him be successfully coerced by a little woman?
Chu Nian: "Then there's nothing to talk about." She started moving things again.
In fact, inanimate objects in a house don't have a significant impact on feng shui. What has a significant impact are living things, such as plants and animals, because these living things themselves possess spiritual energy and fortune.
This room only has plants, no animals, but that doesn't mean there aren't any. For example, there are living creatures like ants and woodlice that are hidden in the dark and cannot be completely seen or eliminated.
Therefore, in Lin Jingting's view, even if Chu Nian changed the feng shui of the house to some extent, he still had a way to change it back.
