Perhaps it was Linghu Lan's ever-changing expressions that pleased Yu Jue, for he waved his hand and lifted the restriction.
Caught off guard by the release of the restriction, Linghu Lan blurted out, "Yu Jue, don't even think about sleeping with me again."
Yu Jue's expression changed, and he immediately raised his hand to place the restriction again. Linghu Lan chickened out: "No, I mean, I will never think of sleeping with you again."
Yu Jue's face darkened even more. What is the difference in meaning between these two sentences?
"No, no, I meant war is about to break out," Linghu Lan stammered anxiously.
"I know," Yu Jue replied calmly.
"The opportunity to earn merit has arrived!" Linghu Lan exclaimed, her face beaming.
"I know," Yu Jue said calmly.
Huh? "You don't want to earn merit?" Linghu Lan asked, somewhat surprised.
"In no mood!"
"Why?"
Yu Jue looked at her with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot, "I have so much merit that I don't know what to do with it."
Linghu Lan felt a lump in her throat. Yes!
This guy is a god of war among the gods. He kicked over countless temples and monasteries of the gods and replaced them with his own. His merits are outrageous. Moreover, he doesn't seek ascension, reincarnation, or bribes to the emperors or ghost emperors. Merit is really useless to him.
Linghu Lan was incredibly envious of his life of wealth and 'carefree' living.
"Uh, I need to accumulate merit, so don't get in my way of getting rich!"
"What do you want merit for?" Yu Jue asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Ascend to the Heavenly Court!" Linghu Lan exclaimed with a ghostly aura.
Yu Jue laughed, "No one from the Ghost Realm has ever been able to ascend to the Heavenly Court, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless one has performed good deeds for a thousand lifetimes, one is qualified to enter the heavenly realm as a ghost."
Linghu Lan remained silent for a long while, then said softly, "I don't know if others are qualified, but I am."
Yu Jue stared at her for a long time. He didn't have the ability to see through a person's reincarnation, but he could tell that Linghu Lan's ghost body had indeed done a lot of good deeds. "Why don't you reincarnate?" With Jinxi's aptitude, she could easily live a life of luxury in a noble family.
"It's a long story, a sad one..." Linghu Lan said with regret.
"Then there's no need to say anything more."
Linghu Lan: "o_o..." Are you kidding me?
In the end, Yu Jue took pity on Linghu Lan and allowed her to move freely and earn merit.
then……
Wherever Linghu Lan passed through, many people dreamed of a divine being issuing a pandemic prevention notice: War is imminent, and after the war, plagues will rage. I, the deity, cannot bear the suffering of the world, and have come to save you from this sea of misery. I now inform you of the key points of pandemic prevention, which you must remember: Bury corpses with lime, layer upon layer with care; cover your nose with a damp cloth for safety; keep antidotes at home… Prevention is better than cure. Doing a good job in pandemic prevention is our shared responsibility. So be it! PS: Afterwards, ask for nothing more than to have a temple and statue erected in honor of this deity.
This bizarre and absurd epidemic prevention notice shocked Yu Jue so much that he lost his mind and his six spirits flew away.
Driven by a moment of curiosity, he entered someone's dream and saw Linghu Lan, dressed as a white-clad fairy with a halo above her head, sitting cross-legged with a solemn expression, reciting the epidemic prevention notice word by word. Yu Jue, who had received a systematic higher education, felt his worldview shattered instantly. He shouldn't have let his curiosity get the better of him and entered someone else's dream; he had practically courted death.
Yu Jue quickly retreated.
After Linghu Lan finished playing the charlatan, she rushed to the next event, teaching a group of doctors how to prevent disease and giving a group of officials a pep talk on morality. She was so busy that she didn't realize that Yu Jue's gaze towards her was no longer that of someone looking at an idiot, but that he was looking at an idiot.
