Chapter 12 (Overhauled)
!
Lian Yu suddenly sat up from the couch.
A sharp tearing pain came from his abdomen. Lian Yu suddenly straightened up, and his forehead was instantly covered with cold sweat.
"If you still feel pain, it means the injury isn't too serious."
The female voices were as loud as rain, coming from not far away.
Unexpectedly, there was someone else next to him. Lian Yu looked up with a pale face and found a tall and graceful woman standing one meter away from the couch.
With a Chang'e bun, a Guanyin mole, plain white clothes, a jade sword and a silver whip, she looks like a fairy.
The fairy smiled gently and said:
"Why, Junior Brother, did you injure your head?"
Lian Yu didn't answer, just stared at her.
Stubborn brain, think quickly!
Although he looked calm on the surface, Lian Yu was actually sweating profusely.
He has traveled through so many worlds, and suddenly such a character appeared in front of him, and he couldn't remember it for a moment.
After being silent for too long, the fairy looked at him with increasing worry:
"Junior brother, you are so badly injured that you can't even remember me?"
[Poison]
Tutu's reminder rang in his mind.
Lian Yu suddenly lifted up his sleeves as if he had been electrocuted.
There was a hideous scar clearly printed on the inside of his forearm.
That's where the poisonous insects got in.
"Senior Sister Mingzhu."
Lian Yu remembered.
He was originally the one with the greatest hope of ascending to heaven, but he was secretly plotted against and was poisoned by the extremely yang poison. The day the poison entered his heart, his internal organs were burned and he died suddenly.
There is no antidote to the poison. Only by counteracting it with extreme cold air every day can there be a glimmer of hope for survival.
The protagonist, Shou, is the one with the coldest aura.
In the original story, he turned the protagonist into a furnace in order to remove the poison, which was also the key plot point that led to the protagonist's evil transformation.
"Qin Yi." Lian Yu suddenly murmured.
"Who?" Mingzhu looked at him in confusion.
Suddenly realizing what he was about to say, Lian Yu shook his head violently, trying to drive all the complicated emotions out of his mind.
Mingzhu chuckled softly, her eyes fixed on the wound on Lian Yu's abdomen:
"I told you to stop messing around with girls and harming innocent girls. Now, a woman from the mortal world can hurt you like this. If you ever provoke a cultivator, you will be in big trouble."
Lian Yu laughed dryly twice.
Of course, isn’t he here to pay off his debt?
A debt of love... no, it's a debt of sin.
"Senior Sister Mingzhu, have you ever met a..."
Lian Yu was thinking about how to describe the protagonist, but unfortunately, he had no impression of the protagonist.
"Senior Sister, something bad has happened!"
A male cultivator suddenly rushed in shouting, his face covered in sweat from anxiety.
"Outside."
The male cultivator suddenly noticed Lian Yu on the bed and fell silent. After a long while, he cried out anxiously:
"Anyway, Senior Sister, please go and take a look. It's a mess outside!"
Mingzhu seemed to understand something. She looked at Lian Yu with some impatience:
"What you fear will come true, Junior Brother, you should be more restrained in the future."
Me, me?
Lian Yu had a question mark on his forehead.
Suddenly, Mingzhu retracted her leg that was about to cross the threshold and looked back at Lian Yu.
Lian Yu instinctively sat up straight.
Mingzhu sighed softly.
"Junior brother, there are some situations that you should face on your own."
I followed Mingzhu halfway without knowing why.
The wound on his abdomen was still painful, and his clothes were casually draped over his shoulders, revealing a large area of his chest wrapped in gauze.
Suddenly, Mingzhu stopped in front.
Countless eyes fell on Lian Yu, staring at him like hungry wolves, making Lian Yu feel uncomfortable all over.
Lian Yu instinctively pulled the collar of his shirt closer to his chest.
"Lian Xianzun is here!"
I don't know who shouted first, but the crowd followed suit and roared, their eyes filled with desire to eat melons.
What's going on?
Lian Yu took a step back, almost unable to control the urge to run away immediately.
"Quiet."
Mingzhu raised her hand.
The crowd fell silent.
The onlookers looked at each other, and then suddenly dispersed in a tacit understanding.
Lian Yu paused in his retreat.
It was as if some magic attracted Lian Yu to walk down the stairs step by step. He walked through the path among the crowd and went straight to the center of the crowd.
The surroundings were so quiet that it seemed as if time had stopped.
Lian Yu met those eyes in a daze.
Dark, moist eyes.
So familiar.
"Qin Yi."
Lian Yu murmured.
The boy in front of him looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.
The boy had a pale complexion, peach blossom eyes, and a small dimple visible at the corner of his lips when he pursed his lips. His soft black hair was tied behind his head with a coarse cloth headband.
The two looked at each other for a moment.
"Unfaithful man!"
The young man suddenly pointed at Lian Yu and shouted, his eyes almost instantly turning red.
"What?" Lian Yu almost couldn't control his voice.
The onlookers were in an uproar.
"Lian Xianzun is indeed a scumbag!"
"Of course not. Look at the wound on Lian Xianzun's body. The last person stabbed him and he hasn't recovered yet, and now the next one is coming."
"I never thought that even the Immortal Venerable could do this to men...do I have a chance too?"
"Pah, pah, pah, what are you talking about? Lian Xianzun is handsome, but a scumbag is not acceptable——"
"etc!"
Seeing that the topic was becoming increasingly outrageous, Lian Yu could no longer tolerate it.
"My friend, I don't know you."
Lian Yu took a deep breath and raised the corners of his lips into an impeccable curve.
"Besides, words are not enough. This young man said that I betrayed you, but do you have any evidence?"
"you,"
Juvenile Terrier Neck:
"You just called my name! And you said..."
Lian Yu was stunned.
"Your name is Qin Yi?"
The boy hesitated visibly: "Yes, that's right!"
It's obviously a lie!
Lian Yu was speechless for a moment.
He held his forehead with his hand, his tone somewhat helpless: "My friend, no matter what your purpose is in wanting to slander me, please go back."
"Slander? Even the Immortal Venerable needs this one person to slander him?"
"That's right, otherwise how did that wound on your stomach come from?"
?
Lian Yu was choked by his saliva and started coughing violently.
"careful!"
The young man ran up hurriedly and gently stroked his back.
Lian Yu was stunned and looked at the boy.
The boy seemed to suddenly realize the illogicality of his actions and was a little at a loss.
"Look! And you still say you don't know me!"
"How intimate this is!"
The voices of discussion drifted by in real time like barrages.
Seeing more and more people gathered around, Mingzhu cleared her throat:
"Okay, let's go in and talk about it."
"I don't think you, Junior Brother, would like such a little bean sprout."
In the reception hall, Mingzhu supported her chin with her slender white knuckles and looked at Qin Yi with smiling eyes.
Qin Yi's eyes widened slightly, as if he didn't expect Mingzhu to say that.
Lian Yu nodded like pounding garlic.
Seeing him like this, Qin Yi's face suddenly turned red: "You, you didn't say that when you were in bed!"
"bed?"
Lian Yu was speechless for a moment. He looked at Mingzhu for help:
"Please, Senior Sister, clear my name!"
God knows how the plot developed inexplicably like this.
He had been in the story for quite some time, but he never expected that not only did he fail to find the protagonist, but he was also pestered by such a strange boy.
All this delay is his retirement time!
Lian Yu was so anxious that he wanted to quit on the spot.
Mingzhu shook her head slowly, and the smile on her face faded.
"Junior Brother, it's not that I don't trust you now, but everyone in the sect has already confirmed your affair. Unless this child takes the initiative to confess and clear your name, even I can't help you."
After Mingzhu finished speaking, the air was silent for a few seconds.
Qin Yi Chong raised his eyebrows.
Lian Yu glared.
"Senior Sister."
The hands on the edge of the table unconsciously clenched, but Lian Yu smiled softly:
"Could you please step out for a moment? I have something to discuss with Qin Yi alone."
When thinking of the word "Qin Yi", Lian Yu pronounced it with extra emphasis.
Lian Yu stood up.
He stepped forward, cornering the still-growing boy. The difference in size between the two men was so great that the boy felt like a tiny bird trapped in his towering shadow.
The boy seemed a little afraid, but he still straightened his back unyieldingly.
"You don't deserve the name."
Lian Yu's eyes were cold.
The boy chuckled.
"Why, is this name important to you?"
Lian Yu did not deny it.
The boy's smile instantly became brighter.
"Don't worry, I also have someone very important to me. So I want to join the sect, I want to train, I want to practice swordsmanship, I want to protect him and save him."
Lian Yu was silent.
"so what?"
He heard the hidden meaning in the boy's words.
"Are you threatening me now?"
"Yes," the young man answered simply, "I want you to take me as your disciple."
"So this is your purpose."
"Yes, actually I don't want this either."
The boy shrugged:
"But I've taken the sect entrance exam seven times. The only time a new Immortal Venerable offered to take me in as a disciple, he ultimately gave up on me, saying he'd met a more talented disciple. The other six times, I didn't even pass the sect's initial exam. Almost everyone told me I had no talent, but I refused to accept that."
As he spoke, the young man suddenly looked up at Lian Yu.
Lian Yu frowned in confusion.
"Later, I heard that there was a Lian Xianzun in the sect who was a playboy and owed a lot of bad debts. Although he was a bad person, he was very generous. No matter what the poor people he let down asked for, he would agree to it."
The young man's charming peach blossom eyes curved up in a smile, with an inexplicable hint of cunning:
“I thought, can’t I take advantage of this?”
Lian Yu stared at the smiling face of the boy in front of him.
The boy winked playfully:
"So, if you, Lian Xianzun, want me to clear your name, then please accept me as your disciple."
Lian Yu suddenly laughed out loud.
He raised his hand and clamped the boy's jaw with his tiger's mouth.
Their breaths suddenly intertwined, the boy shuddered, and almost burst into tears physiologically.
No matter how high you hold your head, you are still just an innocent little bird.
You still want to threaten me like this?
"clean?"
Lian Yu slowly moved his hand down, from the chin to the neck, he stroked and felt the trembling of the skin under his palm.
"I could destroy you right now if I wanted to."
The boy bit his lip, his face pale.
Lian Yu sighed.
He withdrew his hand: "If you want to protect your important people, you don't have to-"
Before Lian Yu could finish his words, the young man suddenly pulled his hand.
Under his palm was a thin chest, inside which a heart was beating violently.
"Then come and destroy me!"
The young man closed his eyes, looking ready to die.
Lian Yu was silent.
After a moment, he pointed out the window.
"look."
The boy opened his eyes in confusion.
The next second, a shadow was seen passing by the window, and the door slowly swayed half a circle and closed.
"Lian Xianzun?"
No one answered.
The rain was pouring down the path.
[Light rain!]
Tu Tu's two mechanical eyes were full of stars:
[Slow down, run slower, I’m going to vomit…]
Lian Yu suddenly stopped.
"Tutu, open the time tunnel, we'll leave now."
[Tunnel?]
Tutu still felt a little dizzy:
[Leave now?]
"I haven't met the main character yet, right?"
Tutu nodded.
"Then the protagonist hasn't started to hate me yet?"
Tutu nodded again.
"So if I leave now, will that mean I've completed the mission?"
Tutu's eyes widened: [Should it be considered?]
The time tunnel slowly opened in front of Lian Yu.
The black vortex slowly dissipated before Lian Yu's eyes, expanding and expanding—
Then it stopped abruptly.
[Can’t open it!]
The damn Space-Time Administration hasn’t caught the defector yet!
The efficiency is shockingly low!
Lian Yu's eyes went dark.
[Light rain!]
Amid Tutu's exclamation, Lian Yu's body softened and he fell to his knees.
It was as if a fire had ignited in his blood vessels, burning his body.
The pain spread from my heart.
Can't breathe.
Lian Yu grabbed the clothes on his chest and breathed with difficulty.
Double vision began to appear before my eyes.
"Lian Xianzun!"
The crisp sound is like birdsong.
In the blurred vision, Lian Yu vaguely made out the figure of a young boy.
The young man supported him.
"Lian Xianzun, are you okay?!"
So cool.
The young man's embrace was like a stream of water clear under the scorching sun, enticing the continuous rain to come closer.
Closer, closer, closer...
Lian Yu threw the boy to the ground.
