Cang Liuyu remained silent.
After a long silence, he finally looked up at her and said, "Don't you have your own opinions? Why do you always have to listen to someone else?"
Shen Zhiyi pouted.
"I listened to myself before, so now I can't graduate."
Cang Liuyu: ...
So, it was for the sake of my studies that I said those things and did those things to him.
Anyone would have done the same.
Cang Liuyu's face turned cold.
Turn around and walk forward.
Shen Zhiyi scratched his head, following him with a puzzled look.
Cangliu Yu carried out his missions without uttering a single word.
The malevolent aura emanating from him was even stronger than the killing intent of those demonic beasts.
However, every time he got the Illusionary Spirit Orb, he would coldly share half with her.
Shen Zhiyi turned her head to look at him halfway through the journey.
"Cang Liuyu, are you angry?"
“No.” He turned his head away.
"She's clearly angry." Shen Zhiyi frowned, patted her storage bag, which was bulging with Illusionary Spirit Pearls.
"Are you unhappy that you want me to share half of the bead with you?"
Cang Liuyu: "...No."
"Then why didn't you say a word to me the whole way?" Shen Zhiyi asked, hands on her hips. "Did you think my magic was too weak and embarrassed you?"
Cang Liuyu lowered his gaze to look at her.
She seemed a little angry, her eyes gleaming.
Her cheeks were also puffy.
A thought suddenly struck him, and he felt an urge to pat her head.
His expression grew increasingly cold and hard.
I stepped back half a step, distancing myself from her.
Your cultivation level is none of my concern.
After saying that, he strode forward.
Shen Zhiyi stared wide-eyed at his tall and imposing back.
Irrelevant?
How can it be unrelated!
She still needs him to improve her cultivation!
She chased after him, saying, "Let me tell you, you're not the only one with a temper. You made me angry, and I didn't even hold it against you."
"Now you're refusing to talk to me for some inexplicable reason. You're like a spoiled young lady in a folk tale, throwing a tantrum just to get my attention."
"You still say you don't care about me."
"Are you deliberately throwing a tantrum because you want me to talk to you more and coax you with sweet words?"
Cang Liuyu: ...
He stopped and asked her with a dark expression, "When did I make you angry?"
Shen Zhiyi blinked and said seriously, "When I was born, you had already lived for more than seven hundred days."
“Back then, a midwife slapped my butt, and I cried out loud. You were almost at the Core Formation stage, and you didn’t even offer to help me vent my anger.”
"I didn't hold it against you because I have a good temper."
Cang Liuyu counted his fingers and touched his brow.
Are you chasing after someone or picking a fight?
Shen Zhiyi snorted, "Let me tell you, if you keep giving me the cold shoulder, I won't be so easy to talk to anymore."
"After that midwife slapped me, I threw a tantrum at my parents for a year, not saying a word, just crying as soon as I opened my eyes. Now you know how hard it is to coax me once I get angry, right?"
"I advise you not to mess with me."
Cang Liuyu almost laughed out of anger.
"Oh." He gave a wry smile. "Then I should pity you."
"You didn't go astray after such a dark moment. It seems you have a good potential for cultivation."
Shen Zhiyi smiled and moved closer to him.
“Cang Liuyu, you said thirty-seven words to me.”
"Looks like you still want to talk to me."
Cang Liuyu looked at the smile on her lips, which seemed to bloom like spring flowers.
His heart skipped a beat.
He turned his head away, "Boring."
"Okay, okay." Shen Zhiyi tugged at his sleeve. "No matter what made you angry, I apologize to you."
"I'm sorry, we've wronged our Sword Master."
"How about I treat you to dinner?"
Cang Liuyu pursed his lips, staring at the sleeve she was holding, his large hand slowly tightening.
He lifted his eyelids slightly. "You want me to pick fruit for you again?"
"No, no." Shen Zhiyi waved her hand, her eyes crinkling into a smile. "This time, I really am treating you to dinner."
"Once we leave the secret realm, I'll spend a lot of spirit stones to treat you to the best restaurant in the mortal world, and I'll prepare a Manchu Han Imperial Feast for you!"
"OK?"
Cang Liuyu paused for a moment, then said, "Cultivators do not seek pleasure in food and drink."
Shen Zhiyi blurted out, "Then what do you want?"
Cang Liuyu glanced at her, then gripped the hilt of his sword. "It's nothing."
"So you agreed to have dinner with me?" Shen Zhiyi smiled broadly and walked around to stand in front of him. "I heard that the Moon Chasing Brew at that restaurant is especially delicious. If we drink it together under the moon, you can even taste the sweetness!"
"I've always wanted to try it."
"Unfortunately, the elders won't let me drink alcohol."
"How about we have a few drinks together when we go out for dinner?"
Cang Liuyu didn't answer, but instead asked, "Why won't you drink?"
Shen Zhiyi frowned in distress, "I don't know either."
"I only heard from the people in the sect that once, I drank some wine and clung to a tree stump in the sect, holding on for a whole night, and almost gnawed the bark off."
"That tree was planted with great difficulty by the elders, so they won't let me drink alcohol anymore."
"But I don't remember it either, I don't know if what they said is true."
Cang Liuyu paused for a moment.
He glanced down slightly, then said, "Okay."
"Huh?" Shen Zhiyi didn't react for a moment.
Cang Liuyu said calmly, "I've agreed to your offer to treat us to dinner."
“If you dare to break your promise,” he whispered threateningly, holding the unsheathed Broken Water Sword against her neck, “I will make you beg me for mercy and then kill you.”
Shen Zhiyi's legs went weak from the fear of his gaze.
He swallowed hard, then mustered his courage and said, "Don't worry, I will never go back on my word."
She would go to her senior sister's place and get the strongest medicine, then mix it all into the Moon Chasing Brew.
I refuse to believe I can't sleep with him.
Hmph.
