Yun Ling finally couldn’t hold back anymore.
With red eyes, she suddenly reached out and hugged Lin Huaian’s lower back tightly, burying her head in his arms, greedily inhaling the scent,
which seemed to be a complex mix of sandalwood, mothballs, and Lin Huaian himself.
Three years, she had been without cultivation for three whole years.
Did anyone know how she had spent these three years?!
Even during her genius days, who could understand the abuse she suffered from the jealousy of her clansmen, the pressure of her parents’ expectations, and the hardship of cultivating alone?
No one could understand.
She had never told anyone about these things.
Even her father had not been able to get a single piece of information from her, but Lin Huaian knew, not only knew, but also tried every means to help her,
Willing to pretend to be a villain to make her hate and resent him, but also to bear the misunderstanding and continue to move forward.
Yes, she had been enduring everything alone.
On the immortal path, what is most rare is not cultivation, but a partner who understands her, knows her, and is truly good to her.
Yun Ling felt that she probably wouldn’t meet such a person in her life.
But now, this kind of person is in her arms.
Moreover, he is a powerful and unmatched Supreme Sovereign who controls the cause and effect of the world.
What could be more fortunate than this?
She had always wanted to take Lin Huaian as her cauldron, but it turned out that it was already predestined.
Lin Huaian was a little dazed.
He certainly didn’t expect that Yun Ling had already defaulted him as her destined person, and attributed her perverted thoughts to fate.
He didn’t know what happened in the Yun family last night.
He only knew that he slept soundly yesterday, and when he woke up, he was so energetic and full of vitality that he couldn’t wait to do a set of Chen-style Tai Chi in the air, just to screw this world.
However, Yun Ling’s behavior was actually a good sign for Lin Huaian, because it meant that Lin Huaian’s sincerity had moved her, and all the past resentment had been dispelled.
Now, she had the possibility of becoming Lin Huaian’s thigh.
Just as Lin Huaian was thinking this, Yun Ling’s voice suddenly came from his ear:
“Senior… shall we, renew our engagement?”
Lin Huaian’s face stiffened.
He lowered his head and saw that Yun Ling’s cheeks were flushed, and her expression was shy and twisted.
“No.”
Lin Huaian’s answer was very decisive.
I’m going to cling to the thighs of all the protagonists in the world.
I can’t be protected by just one child of destiny.
Don’t even think about binding me here!
“Why?” Yun Ling seemed to have suffered a considerable blow, and her body trembled as she released her hand holding Lin Huaian.
“Senior, don’t you, don’t you like Yun Ling…”
Suddenly, a flash of darkness passed, and the movie screen reappeared.
Lin Huaian was stunned because he actually saw the scene of Yun Ling imprisoning him in the dungeon again.
This time, there seemed to be a few more chains on his body.
Could this mean that if he rejected Yun Ling here, Yun Ling would continue on the original plot line?
No, big shot, I don’t want arranged marriages!
Open a harem? No! I am a pure love warrior!
And what kind of marriage is this?
I will definitely be subjected to domestic violence after marriage!
The picture disappeared, and Lin Huaian realized that no matter how long the CG was, it only took a moment from its appearance to its completion.
Yun Ling still maintained her previous expression, but this time there was a bit more bitterness and anger in her emotions:
“Could it be that everything Senior said just now was a lie to me?”
Bad, bad, bad, is this the rhythm of blackening into a yandere?!
The CG just now really didn’t lie to me!
Lin Huaian quickly thought about it.
He sat opposite Yun Ling, and the desire to survive prompted his brain to run at high speed.
After a brief thought, he finally found a perfect solution, so he slightly brewed his emotions.
At this moment, the October autumn wind swept across the earth, lifting a corner of the curtain.
The courtyard’s artificial rockeries and flowing water were slow, and the sky was full of crimson and yellow intertwined.
Lin Huaian turned his back to such scenery, slowly opened his azure-golden eyes, and asked in a light voice—
“Miss Yun Ling, please put aside love and hate for now.
Let me ask you a question first, on the path of cultivation, what is the greatest enemy?”
Yun Ling heard this, although she was still a little confused, she barely calmed down.
After thinking for a while, she said with certainty: “The greatest enemy, of course, is oneself.”
A great cultivator once said that a person’s life is to constantly break through oneself.
For Yun Ling, this sentence was too appropriate.
In countless years, she had been competing with herself.
She had wanted to give up countless times, but it was because she finally persisted in practicing breathing exercises that she had what she has now.
Yun Ling believes that the greatest enemy is herself, and she must surpass herself in the ego, the id, and the superego.
Only by defeating the great Dao heart demon like a deep abyss can the current self embark on the path of cultivation again.
But Lin Huaian smiled contemptuously after hearing her answer.
He supported his chin, as if he was mocking Yun Ling, or as if he was pitying her.
Under Yun Ling’s shameful, angry, and fearful gaze, Lin Huaian calmed down and said softly:
“On the path of cultivation, the greatest enemy is never oneself.”
He looked at Yun Ling, the emotions in his golden eyes changed like a surging tide, and finally turned into a muffled whisper like a clear day thunder: “It is, the whole world.”
The voice fell.
At this moment, the world seemed to be quiet.
The Primordial aura surged out from Lin Huaian’s body without warning, and in an instant, it submerged the entire chamber.
Yun Ling’s heart trembled, and for a moment, she was suppressed by Lin Huaian’s words to the point where she couldn’t even move her body.
Moreover, wasn’t Lin Huaian’s Primordial Holy Body crippled?
What’s going on with this Primordial aura?!
Could it be that, from the rumors of him being a cripple, all of this was actually a scam?
Lin Huaian didn’t notice these things.
He just stood up quietly, slowly stepped forward, and faintly, a void shadow condensed from behind him.
Yun Ling took a closer look and found that Lin Huaian’s back actually had some resemblance to the Primordial Emperor who was said to have been arbitrary in the world and cut off all gods and Buddhas!
“On the path of cultivation, the road is long, and countless dangers are endless.
Miss Yun Ling, in the Holy Word Dynasty, I may have been a rare genius, but if I look at the entire continent, among billions of people, what can I be considered?”
Lin Huaian sighed, and his sleeves were thrown to the side.
He slowly walked to the window, facing the autumn light, and continued to say to Yun Ling with his back turned—
“There are thousands of geniuses, and the immortal path is all over the world.
Among these thousands of living beings, only one person can become the king of all immortals, only one person can ascend to the imperial throne, and only one person can be arbitrary in the world and command the heroes!”
Yun Ling was already very surprised, and her eyes widened even more after hearing this sentence.
She originally thought that her state of mind was countless times more mature than her peers, and she had already prepared herself to fight against herself at this age, but she didn’t expect that Lin Huaian was even more so.
While she was competing with herself, Lin Huaian had already set his sights on the common people of the world, and even the entire world!
This sentence was like the true words of the great Dao, like thunder, deafening, and Yun Ling suddenly felt that she was small and insignificant.
In front of Lin Huaian, everything about her seemed so pale and weak.
He was like a high mountain standing in front of her, majestic and spectacular, seemingly unattainable, but also sheltering her from the wind and rain.
With the body of a mortal, ascend to the immortal seat and command the immortals!
What a great spirit, what a high attitude!
A true man should be like this!
Is this really that playboy Lin Huaian?
“Miss Yun Ling, as I said, on the path of cultivation, the greatest enemy is always this world.
If you can’t defeat the whole world, then cultivation is a waste of life,” Lin Huaian turned his head, facing the soft light outside the window, and looked at Yun Ling indifferently.
At this moment, he was like a true immortal descending into the mortal world, and every move revealed an immortal meaning that could not be dispelled.
“Even if we seem to have a bright future now, who can see through the arrangements of the Heavenly Dao?
I can only guarantee your future, but I can’t save myself.”
Yun Ling was completely stunned in place.
So even if Lin Huaian can spread the laws of the world and manipulate the lives of countless cultivators, he can’t control his own destiny?
“If one day I die, leaving behind my wife and children, who will protect you?”
Lin Huaian closed his eyes, and at this moment, it seemed that the world had dimmed for it.
“In this world where everyone is an enemy, I can’t have too many worries, so I only hope that you can leave me.
When the news of my death is sent back to Cangzhou from thousands of miles away one day, you will smile faintly, remembering that this person once appeared by your side.”
The voice fell, like dust settling.
Lin Huaian closed his eyes, his face was deep and aloof, his eyebrows were bitter, and he seemed to have a bit of sadness that could not be dispelled.
In fact, he only felt that these words were too well said in his heart, because he was about to believe them himself.
Just as Lin Huaian was self-intoxicated, in the room, Yun Ling’s voice quietly sounded:
“Then, Lin Huaian…”
Her beautiful eyes flowed, her lips trembled, and her tone was a bit timid, a bit hesitant, but firm:
“If I fall on the way of the long path of cultivation before you, will you miss me?”
Lin Huaian heard this, opened his azure-golden eyes, and said with particular decisiveness—
“Yes.”
This was not a fool.
Lin Huaian was still very serious in the face of such big rights and wrongs as life and death, not to mention that the person who asked this question was his future thigh.
Although she was thinking of turning herself into a male s*ave in her heart.
What will I do if you die, thigh?
The more people who protect me, the better, especially since you are the only thigh I have now!
“And you can’t die, absolutely can’t die,” Lin Huaian looked at Yun Ling with great seriousness, “If you fall on the way, then I must, not live long.”
This is the truth.
Yun Ling’s pupils shook violently.
While she was deeply moved in her heart, she couldn’t help but show a bit of uncontrollable emotion towards Lin Huaian.
Her legs went weak, and for a moment, she couldn’t help herself.
Unexpectedly, Lin Huaian would care about her, and not just care?
“If you fall on the way, then I must, not live long.”
What does this sentence mean?
No matter how slow Yun Ling was, she could understand that this was nothing more than the meaning of committing suicide!
If you die, I will never live alone.
We will ascend to the top of the immortal world together.
I have given you the ability to ascend to the top of the immortal path with me, and given you enough expectations.
Therefore, I will not allow you to die.
Lin Huaian really has feelings for her!
Unconsciously, a line of clear tears slipped from the corner of Yun Ling’s eyes.
She completely understood that although Lin Huaian had feelings for her, his enemies were all the immortals in the world and the entire Heavenly Dao.
Lin Huaian was walking on a lonely path of the emperor that no one had ever walked before and no one would come after.
Although she had obtained the Immortal Emperor’s bloodline, she was still too weak to look at the entire continent.
He couldn’t bear to let himself be displaced and fight against the world together, so he rejected her.
Looking at Lin Huaian and then thinking about her own actions, Yun Ling couldn’t help but feel a burst of naivety.
Lin Huaian considered her so deeply, but she only cared about the present.
Is this the gap in the state of mind?
Is this Lin Huaian, who is against the common people and has a great ambition?
