Chapter 523: Thank you, one sentence hurts two people

Ye Linglong opened his eyes in surprise.

“Why isn’t it over?”

"Have you been injured before? Your tendons and veins are very fragile, so the power wreaked havoc in your body at the beginning and burned your tendons and veins."

"Before, for some reasons, I rushed up from the Golden Core stage to the God Transformation stage all at once. My body went through a huge transformation in a short period of time, which exceeded its endurance limit, so I was left with sequelae."

Ye Linglong didn't take this seriously.

"Just now I used too much force and my tendons and veins were overloaded. They are indeed injured again, but it shouldn't be a big problem, right? I will slowly recover in the future..."

"Do you realize how slow this process is? You have such a big heart."

Ye Linglong was stunned. She didn’t know.

"Damage to your tendons is no small matter. If you continue to cultivate after they are damaged, they will continue to be damaged and eventually become useless. If you want to slowly heal them, it may take dozens or even hundreds of years before you can do it."

"ah?"

"No wonder you and Shu Tong are on the same page. You two are very similar in some ways."

Thank you, you hurt two people with just one sentence.

"You need to find the elixir that can heal your tendons and veins, otherwise you will end up like Gu Linyuan sooner or later."

Is it so serious?

This was the first time that Ye Linglong realized that she was injured, and now her injury was even more serious.

Although she didn't feel much, she is now alive and kicking.

All I heard was Meng Zhanlin sighing.

"Forget it. I just happen to be free recently. I'll take you to find her. It can be considered as a way to atone for Shu Tong's sin. As for Shu Tong, don't blame her. She didn't mean it."

"I know. I have the ability to judge people. She didn't do it on purpose. And it's not all her fault. Didn't I realize it myself?"

Meng Zhanlin chuckled.

"You are a kind-hearted and open-minded girl, you treat others with sincerity, that's why Shu Tong likes you so much. It's rare for her to have such a good friend, I really hope you two can stay together forever."

"Didn't she have any friends before?"

"no."

"Why? With her personality, this shouldn't happen."

"I don't know if she has ever told you that we were both born in the upper cultivation world."

"Yes."

"People in the upper cultivation world are basically from the lower world. This means that the moment they appeared in the upper cultivation world, they were already at the level of a spirit being. We who were born here had no cultivation at the beginning. We also trained ourselves up step by step."

Yes, from their point of view, in this dangerous upper cultivation world, two young children who haven't even reached the level of a spirit being, and who are the mountain master's biological children, aren't they the two softest persimmons to squeeze?

Not to mention that outsiders would want to bully them when they see them, even the arrogant people in the mountains are not necessarily all kind.

"For our safety, my father sent all his disciples to other elders and focused on my brother and me. He even specially set up this main courtyard to prevent outside disciples from approaching."

"So you have been raised in isolation?"

"Almost. My father didn't let us have contact with outsiders until we reached the level of Spiritual Transformation. But the long-term isolation and the doting of my parents made Shu Tong innocent. Although her cultivation level is high enough that she won't be bullied, she is the daughter of the mountain master, and there will always be people who want to take advantage of her."

"She was bullied?"

"Well, when she first came into contact with outsiders, several disciples from Kuangwang Mountain became friends with her. They were jealous of her status as the daughter of the mountain master, but they couldn't help but use her status to seek various benefits for themselves in the mountain."

Ye Linglong nodded.

This is normal. There are too many intrigues within the big sects. A social novice like Meng Shutong will definitely be plotted against as soon as she goes out. Who makes her of such a noble status?

"What happened next?"

"Later, they went too far. Shu Tong felt something was wrong and wanted to reject them. However, they could not accept her behavior after receiving benefits from her for a long time, so they attacked her. They tricked her out and wanted to send her to the bandits outside in exchange for benefits."

Ye Linglong was stunned. That was so dangerous.

"What happened next?"

"When I realized something was wrong and went to look for her, she hadn't been handed over to the bandits yet, but she had already been beaten to a pulp by those disciples, and both of them were almost dead."

"How did she deal with this matter later?"

"She gave them to the bandits."

"She has a clear distinction between love and hate, and is decisive and resolute."

"But she never associated with the disciples of Kuangwang Mountain again. She refused to participate in any ritual activities. When people tried to persuade her, she refused, saying that they were too ugly and she didn't want to go."

Meng Shutong had said this before, and it turns out there is such a long history.

"I tell you this not to put pressure on you, but just to help you understand her better. After all, you are friends, and knowing each other better can avoid many misunderstandings."

Ye Linglong couldn't help but laugh.

"Friends? But she said we are sisters, blood relatives, so she only recognized me unilaterally, but don't you have this plan?"

Meng Zhanlin's gentle expression suddenly froze.

"That's not what I meant!"

"I'm just joking, don't take it seriously."

Meng Zhanlin nodded and turned the topic back to Meng Shutong.

"Shu Tong has no friends and is not very good at getting along with others. If she has offended you in some way, I hope you won't hold it against her. She has a good heart."

"I don't have a bad heart, so you don't have to worry."

"That's not what I meant!"

Ye Linglong couldn't help laughing again. It was so funny to see Meng Zhanlin, who was usually as calm as a mountain, getting anxious and angry and losing his character.

After being anxious for a while, Meng Zhanlin realized that he was being teased again. He felt helpless, so he quickly changed the topic to ease the embarrassment.

"By the way, if you have any questions in the future, just ask me directly. If you ask Shu Tong, the answer you get will most likely be biased."

Ye Linglong raised his eyebrows.

"So, you heard everything we said in the orchard?"

"What do you think? That's my space."

Ye Linglong laughed. That’s right. He was the absolute overlord of his space. He could see, hear and do anything.

Yeah, seeing this, she wants to create a space of her own even more!

"You said her answer was biased. Was it about Gu Linyuan?"

"yes."

Meng Zhanlin sighed helplessly again.

"Gu Linyuan was picked up by Shu Tong when he was in a state of madness, so he was in Kuangwang Mountain the moment he woke up. He didn't know how he got in, and Kuangwang Mountain has a bad reputation, so he probably thought we were against him."

"Why don't you explain it to him?"

"Because he is so seldom awake."

Ye Linglong was stunned.
