Nāgata: Infernal Night, Qinghan and I are True Love

Chapter 88 Like Strangers, Going in Opposite Directions

On the other side, Xu Tianyi pushed open the door and entered.

Wei Qing had already changed into one of Gu Qinghan's clothes.

"Hey...not bad, it fits my sister-in-law very well..."

Wei Qing glared at him: "Where are my clothes?"

Xu Tianyi gave an awkward smile: "I've already taught her a lesson..."

"I think you got a scolding..."

"Never mind, I'll get it tomorrow. You should rest first. By the way, aren't you going out?"

Wei Qing's lips curled into a smile: "The one who should leave is you. Tonight I'm sleeping with my sister..."

Gu Qinghan smiled and said, "Tianyi, why don't you stay in the side room for the night?"

Xu Tianyi sighed helplessly, then joked, "Be careful, or I might find Yu Linglong to stay the night..."

Gu Qinghan chuckled, "If you're so capable, why don't you go yourself..."

"Hmph! Fine, I'll go!"

He turned around and closed the door for them.

After hesitating for a moment, he still didn't dare to go into Yu Linglong's room.

I might as well go back to the county government office and cultivate myself.

Xu Tianyi stopped after taking only two steps.

What's the point of cultivating? I'm stuck in a rut; I can't become a Grandmaster without a cultivation technique.

Xu Tianyi slowly turned around and walked lightly toward Yu Linglong's room.

As he stood before that exquisite door, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

He raised his hand and gently tapped a few times: "Sister Leader~~~, are you asleep?"

However, the room remained silent, and no response came from inside.

Xu Tianyi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. It was really impolite of him to knock on the door of a young woman's house so late at night.

Thinking of this, he shook his head slightly and was about to turn around and leave, planning to come back to beg her again tomorrow.

Just as he turned around, suddenly, the door that had been tightly closed opened without warning!

Immediately afterwards, a powerful and inexplicable demonic force, like a surging torrent, suddenly pulled him into the room.

With a soft "bang," the door slammed shut again after Xu Tianyi was pulled into the room, as if nothing had ever happened.

At this moment, a strange and ambiguous atmosphere filled the room.

Yu Linglong's melodious and slightly seductive voice drifted out: "Come here..."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianyi froze instantly. His eyes widened as he stared at the half-closed screen, his heart filled with conflicting emotions.

Will we get beaten up if we go there?

What if she's not wearing any?

After hesitating for a moment, he could only stammer, "I...I'll wait here..."

But before he could finish speaking, Yu Linglong interrupted him playfully, "You talk too much nonsense~"

Yu Linglong's small, delicate feet, like light butterflies, gently stepped out from behind the screen, and then her entire graceful body slowly sat down on the exquisitely carved chair.

A faint, almost imperceptible smile played on her affected little face as she looked at him with a half-smile, her lips parting slightly: "What? You've come to your senses and want to confess to this leader? Ha...men..."

Hearing this, Xu Tianyi, who was standing to the side, showed a helpless expression on his face and said with a wry smile:

"My Lord, please don't tease me. To be honest, I have already reached the peak of the Martial Spirit realm, but I am struggling to break through to the Grandmaster realm because I don't have a suitable cultivation method."

"I have no other choice but to dare to come and ask you, Master, for some advice..."

Yu Linglong narrowed her eyes slightly, looked Xu Tianyi up and down, and already had a clear understanding of his situation.

She gently raised her right hand and said to Xu Tianyi in a slow voice, "Extend your hand."

Xu Tianyi dared not delay and quickly and silently extended his hand.

Just as his palm touched Yu Linglong's delicate, jade-like fingertips, he suddenly felt a faint yet extremely powerful demonic energy surge into his arm like a flood bursting its banks.

Wherever this demonic power passed, Xu Tianyi felt an indescribable itching sensation, as if thousands of ants were crawling and gnawing under his skin.

Immediately afterwards, a warm sensation gradually spread, making his originally slightly cold body feel hot.

Before long, that demonic power had spread throughout Xu Tianyi's entire body and meridians.

At this moment, he felt as if his entire body was enveloped by a dense mass of true energy, as if he were in a giant steamer, sweating profusely and finding it difficult to even breathe.

He didn't resist, since he couldn't win anyway.

Yu Linglong didn't examine it much; after a brief overview, she withdrew her true energy.

"It seems you have some good fortune; you even possess a guardian jade."

Xu Tianyi was somewhat surprised: "You saw it?"

"Of course, but this method of cultivation has long been abandoned. Relying on external objects can only help you temporarily."

Yu Linglong's expression was very calm. After pausing for a moment, she continued, "This is a cultivation method created by an elder of the Yuan Sect."

What he cultivated was an inexplicable power of will.

Simply put, your jade pendant is a very precious ancient jade.

It inherently possesses the ability to absorb and store the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The Yuan Cult modified it, enabling it to draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth by absorbing the power of others' thoughts.

Simply put, it's something that controls people.

If you want to become stronger, then you must follow his prescribed doctrines; otherwise, you will gain nothing, and you might even die.

Xu Tianyi was suddenly stunned.

He always thought the jade pendant was his cheat code, maybe even from his past life.

It's also possible that it was some kind of magical artifact that appeared during the time-space turbulence when I traveled through time.

Unexpectedly, like the "ruler-minister poison," it's a device for controlling people.

"I...I'm actually a puppet?"

Yu Linglong clapped her hands excitedly: "That's right, that's right, you're about to die."

Haven't you noticed that the true energy inside your jade pendant is almost full?

If you don't improve your cultivation level soon, your head is going to explode!

"Speaking of which, I've never seen a Guardian Jade explode before. How about I take you to the Supreme Emperor City, and you self-destruct? I want to see if I can kill that old geezer there..."

Xu Tianyi was now drenched in sweat.

This can't be allowed to have a time bomb in my head.

"Then hurry up and give me the cultivation technique!"

Yu Linglong became happy.

"Oh, oh, oh, getting impatient?"

"Oh dear, sister, please help me..."

"Who's your sister? Do I look old?"

"My dear sister, this is terrible! Help her quickly!"

Yu Linglong's bright eyes darted around, a sly glint flashing in them, and then a brilliant idea popped into her head.

"I've got a great idea. How about you confess your love to me in front of your wife, and I'll give you the cultivation technique?"

She wanted to see whether, when faced with life and death, a person would choose unwavering love or the chance to save their own life.

A playful smile appeared on her face as she looked at Xu Tianyi with disdain, as if she could already imagine how decisively he would abandon his lover.

But to her surprise, Xu Tianyi shook his head immediately after only a moment's thought: "Forget it, you want to play with my and Qinghan's feelings. That's too despicable."

So what if I confessed my feelings to you?

Is this what you need?

You don't like me, you only made me confess my feelings for fun.

What good will it do you to break us up?

Yu Linglong was a little embarrassed, but she still insisted, "If you two are truly in love, how could you be separated because of this?"

Xu Tianyi refused: "Feelings cannot withstand testing, just like trust cannot withstand testing."

I really want your cultivation technique, but I'm not the kind of person who will stop at nothing to achieve my goals.

If you only need a formality, I can agree to it, but I need to explain things clearly to Qinghan before I can do it.

Mutual trust and understanding are essential for true love.

You should have someone you like, but do you really understand each other?

After saying this, Xu Tianyi stood up and prepared to leave.

"Alright, alright, if you want me to give you the cultivation technique to help you, you have to help me too."

Xu Tianyi became curious and turned around to sit down.

"What, does Your Excellency, the esteemed leader, have a problem that you cannot solve?"

Yu Linglong pouted, looking somewhat unhappy, and said, "I do have someone I like, but we can never seem to get along... He always avoids me..."

Xu Tianyi was helpless; he finally understood.

Dust-free.

Am I supposed to be your matchmaker?

The relationship between the two is truly complicated and cumbersome.

Simply put, Wuchen likes Danyin.

Dan Yin is Senior Sister Yu Linglong, the eldest son of Nü Xin, a successor of the Tongjiao Tianshan lineage, and a spirit-communicating chaotic divine beast Di Jiang.

Wanxiang wanted to use her to help him reverse the Five Elements True Qi and transform it into Chaos True Qi.

So Wanxiang imprisoned and tormented her for many years, attempting to obtain the martial arts techniques of the Tianshan lineage.

Even if he can't get her, he will forcefully wear down her will and control her to help him.

Wuchen was a mixed-race child and suffered a lot of bullying in the Hidden Clan when he was young.

Until he met Danyin, who treated Wuchen like an older sister, gentle and considerate, Wuchen naturally grew to like the beautiful and gentle Danyin.

Then, in order to release Yu Linglong, Wanxiang suppressed Prison Island, and Danyin disappeared.

Wuchen believed that Wanxiang had killed Danyin, so he endured Wanxiang's Five Elements Heavenly Punishment and lived on in order to avenge Wanxiang.

In order to learn the hidden clan's universal technique, the Qi Observation Technique, Wuchen gave one of his souls and one of his spirits to Nüxin, who then gave the soul and spirit to Yulinglong.

In this way, how could Wuchen possibly like Yu Linglong? He hated the Tongjiao people who treated him as a pawn.

He hated Wanxiang, the leader of the Yuan Cult, for killing Danyin.

He even hated Tianhai, this roadblock who spouted righteousness but was stained with blood.

He vowed to annihilate the Hidden Clan, along with the Golden Crow and the Candle Dragon.

"If I'm doomed, then I'll tear everything down and start all over again!"

In the future, he will create a world inhabited only by humans.

The ancient gods, and those hidden races who think they can control the world, all deserve to die.

Xu Tianyi understood all of this; he knew that it would be extremely difficult to make Wuchen fall in love with Yu Linglong.

There is only a slight possibility if Yu Linglong can stand by him wholeheartedly.

But Yu Linglong also has her own mission: to protect the Tongjiao people.

This contradicts Wuchen's purpose, and the two are now diametrically opposed in their beliefs.

(The name can be changed, what should I change it to? Help me think of five.)

"Do you want to be a simp?"

Xu Tianyi revealed a meaningful smile.

Yu Linglong frowned: "What is a 'simp'?"

When it comes to simps, Xu Tianyi is very experienced, but there's no need to dwell on his painful past.

After a slight sigh, he spoke with a touch of melancholy: "Let me give you an example."
