Hearing this, Yu Chenming's pupils trembled, and the smile on his face faded silently. There was a moment of surprise and astonishment in his eyes, and finally a trace of imperceptible desolation and unwillingness.
He asked a question that only the two of them would understand.
"Then Master, are you really going to accept your fate? You cultivate the ruthless way and are only one step away from becoming an immortal. How could it be possible..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, Sheng Wu flew down directly and then.
“Bang!”
[Ding! Male protagonist's favorability, 50!]
Sheng Wu slapped Yu Chenming in the face, and her cold and indifferent eyes narrowed, revealing a stern and vicious look.
"I never need anyone to interfere in my affairs, and the same goes for you."
Her jade finger directly left a clear red mark on Yu Chenming's handsome face, and his face was severely hit and even blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
What a joke! Shengwu’s slaps were all real. After all, the feeling of torturing others is addictive.
Yu Chenming's breathing stagnated for a moment.
It seemed that he didn't expect that she would be like this after not seeing her for five years, but then he thought, hasn't she always been so domineering and cold, and doesn't allow others to disobey?
The air seemed to stop for a moment.
Yu Chenming tilted his head, and his expression could not be seen clearly, but it only made people feel sad.
"I feel sorry for you and have given you a chance to be free, but this does not mean... that you are the exception who can disobey me." Sheng Wu raised her chin slightly, her fair profile as indifferent as ice.
"Yu Chenming, you are too weak. No one can save you."
Leaving behind a pair of icy words, Sheng Wu walked away without mercy.
[Ding! Male protagonist's favorability, 57!]
Only Yu Chenming was left, who slowly raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth. He lowered his head, his eyes were restrained, his slender and curled eyelashes trembled, and a hint of obscurity flashed in his eyes.
Wasn't he an exception? It was obvious that among the eleven disciples, he was the only one she indulged him so much.
It was obvious that her backlash was caused by him. If she didn't have a trace of favoritism, why would she hurt her own cultivation like this!
“Ha, ha ha ha ha!”
Suddenly, Yu Chenming looked down at the wine jug in his hand, his fingertips turned white from pinching it, and he let out a crazy and cold laugh.
I don’t know what he was thinking about, maybe the scene in the nightmare, there was a hint of mist and trembling in his eyes.
Then Yu Chenming's heart moved, and looking at the wine jug in his hand that seemed to still be warm, he picked up the wine jug as if possessed.
Just like what Sheng Wu said just now.
He just took a big gulp!
The rest of the wine flowed down the sides onto the lapels.
Yes, he was too weak, but without the system, this was his last world, his only free world. This time, why couldn't he live according to his own wishes?
“Bang!”
After taking a sip, Yu Chenming threw the wine jug casually and it broke on the ground. He stared at the peach blossom buds in the West Garden that had not yet bloomed. Something seemed to be quietly changing in his dark eyes.
The hidden thin line that I have been ignoring has gradually taken root in my heart.
Master, I will not accept my fate, never!
[Ding! Male protagonist's favorability rating, 58!]
[Ding, the male protagonist's favorability is 60! ]
......
In the days that followed, Yu Chenming continued to send all kinds of rare treasures to Shengwu West Garden as usual, and he never mentioned what happened that night again.
Sheng Wu just stayed in the West Garden. Even though there were countless people outside who wanted to see her, the Immortal Lord, they were all forbidden to be disturbed by Yu Chenming and the King of Yaoguang Kingdom.
Apart from Yu Chenming occasionally visiting Sheng Wu, bringing her fine wine and chatting with her casually, the two had no other interactions.
Of course, when Sheng Wu was lazy, she didn't even look at him. It was Yu Chenming who was talking to her alone about the world of immortal cultivation.
"Master, in addition to the evil spirit that dug out people's hearts, Yaoguang Country has recently seen another evil spirit that sucks away people's cultivation and turns them into mummies. The way those people died resembled the villagers who were controlled in the Infant Girl Tower. I suspect that person has some connection to the black-robed man from back then."
Yu Chenming came to the West Garden again, carrying a wine jug.
The two sat in the pavilion.
Of course, according to previous custom, Sheng Wu sat on the couch, while Yu Chenming knelt with his head slightly lowered in a humble manner.
Hearing this, she leaned against the pond and was feeding the elixir to the pig-looking koi fish in the pond. Her beautiful eyes were slightly lowered.
"I have no intention of doing this. If you want to intervene, you can try."
"I......"
Hearing her words, Yu Chenming was about to say something, but he caught a glimpse of the koi fish in the pond that was so fat that its belly was almost flipped out. His eyes suddenly became noticeably dull.
“?!” Is that a pig or a fish?
Didn't he remember that when these koi fish were first released, they were only the size of a finger?! It's only been a month, and they look like they're almost dead!
Look at what Sheng Wu is feeding in his hand, um, it’s a pill, and it’s a top-grade pill.
Yu Chenming's mouth twitched, and he immediately understood. His eyes were full of indulgence and helplessness, but he didn't say anything. As long as she liked it, it was fine.
Well, maybe these koi fish can cultivate into spirits. For a moment, Yu Chenming almost forgot what he wanted to say just now.
Sheng Wu threw away all the pills in her hand, brushed off the dust, and then turned to look at him.
"Your Majesty will be leaving tomorrow. Keep these fish well. Although they cannot be eaten, they can still help to awaken their spiritual wisdom."
"?!" As soon as these words came out, Yu Chenming's eyes dimmed slightly, his tone became slightly tentative, and he subconsciously ignored the fish.
"Master, have you... found something fun?"
His dark eyes stared at Sheng Wu without blinking, a hint of gloom flashing across them. She was leaving so soon...
Sheng Wu faced him sideways, turned her head and withdrew her gaze, neither cold nor indifferent.
"Well, I want to adopt a stray cat recently."
