Chapter 173 I Don't Care
Chapter 173 I don't care
"Well, let me tell you, there are always accidents when traveling in the martial arts world."
"Originally, I was just hurried on the road with Junior Brother Lin. In order to get to Qingcheng Sect earlier, we even had to spend almost all three meals a day on horseback, except for sleeping at night."
"Tsk, come to think of it, this way of traveling is really fucking tiring. It's just this time, and it's just a few days
. When I come back from Qingcheng Sect, I will definitely not do this." "I traveled like this today. It's just that because I was in a hurry to travel, I missed the time and the town, and finally spent the night in a dilapidated temple in the wild."
"This dilapidated temple is indeed a place that often appears in martial arts plots to trigger the plot. This time, I also triggered the plot
." "Murong Qiudi. Murong Qiudi also ran to
this dilapidated temple." "And the most important thing is that Murong Qiudi encountered something. She was actually drugged." "
Then, then something happened that everyone likes to see."
"Tsk tsk tsk, I have to say, Murong Qiudi is not only beautiful, but also has a great figure. And she's good at sex too."
"The most important thing is that this time, I'm finally no longer the passive party. Although at the beginning, I was hurt by Murong Qiudi because of my carelessness. But after the acupoints were broken, I was different."
"Tsk tsk tsk, think about Dongfang and Yao Yue before. It's so exciting."
"But, my headache now is, when I wake up tomorrow, how should I deal with this matter tonight?"
"This Murong Qiudi is not an ordinary woman."
"She was originally the woman of Xie Xiaofeng, the third young master of Shenjian Villa. They were even talking about marriage and had even held a wedding. But Xie Xiaofeng ran away."
"Then Murong Qiudi began to turn hate out of love and began to turn evil."
"Although on the surface she is just a poor woman abandoned by Xie Xiaofeng, staying alone in Qixingtang and not going out. But in fact, she secretly formed the Tianzun organization, and used her photographic memory to forcibly memorize countless martial arts secrets, and then used these martial arts secrets to recruit subordinates. In the end, she created a huge Tianzun organization, but before Murong Qiudi could take revenge, Xie Xiaofeng faked his death and escaped, making Murong Qiudi lose her target." "
Then, Master Gu's novels, men, women, and love are mostly such a mess."
"The original plot setting of Murong Qiudi is like this. I don't know if Murong Qiudi's life has changed in this world of martial arts."
"And now, this kind of relationship has occurred between Murong Qiudi and me, so how will she view this matter?"
"Will she have any malice towards me, or even want to kill me to prove her innocence?"
"After all, Murong Qiudi is also a cruel woman."
"Tsk tsk tsk, originally Murong Qiudi was just like Wang Yuyan, a simple little girl who was full of admiration and love for Xie Xiaofeng. Even her attitude towards martial arts was similar to Wang Yuyan's. They both had little interest in martial arts, so much so that they had never practiced martial arts at all. At most, they just memorized a lot of martial arts secrets in order to find common topics with Xie Xiaofeng."
"But compared to Wang Yuyan who was betrayed by Murong Fu and pushed into the dry well, Duan Yu, who had always been Wang Yuyan's bootlicker, finally succeeded in getting to the top, so Wang Yuyan did not turn evil and did not start practicing martial arts."
"And Murong Qiudi, after Xie Xiaofeng's betrayal, she began to practice martial arts."
"I have to say, Murong Qiudi's aptitude is still quite impressive. She was so old when she practiced martial arts, but she was still able to achieve the cultivation level of a grandmaster. If she had started practicing martial arts since she was a child, she would at least be a grandmaster now." "
But it's a good thing that she didn't start practicing martial arts since she was a child. She is only at the second level of the Grandmaster Realm, which is exactly one level lower than me. So even if she wants to kill someone, I can control her. Well, that's on the premise that I'm not careless and don't let my guard down around her."
"Tsk, after all, it's because I have too little experience in the martial arts world. I've been in too few battles and have no combat experience. As a result, I was actually defeated by Murong Qiudi, a woman whose cultivation is lower than mine." "
But there's nothing we can do about it. Who made our cheat so awesome? Who made our strength grow so fast that we don't have time to travel the martial arts world or accumulate combat experience." "
So, we are still suitable for suppressing others with force. With powerful strength, or absolute strength, we can directly crush our opponents, so that we don't need any combat experience."
"Well, speaking of overpowering others with force, the Dragon Elephant Prajnaparamita Art seems quite good. It's the supreme guardian skill of Tibetan Tantric Buddhism, with thirteen levels of realm. Its external power can make the palm force powerful, domineering, and fierce. Each level mastered increases the power of a dragon and an elephant."
"But the threshold for practicing this martial art is extremely low."
"In the original novel, even a particularly stupid person, as long as they are taught, can master the first level in just one or two years. The second level is twice as deep as the first, requiring three to four years. The third level is twice as deep as the second, requiring seven to eight years. The time required to progress increases exponentially, and the further you go, the harder it becomes. The time required to practice the Dragon Elephant Prajnaparamita Art doubles with each level. Two years for the first level, four years for the second, eight years for the third, sixteen years for the fourth, and so on. By the time you reach the thirteenth level, it will probably take nearly ten thousand years to successfully practice." "
Of course, this is for stupid people. For smart people with excellent qualifications, the time for cultivation will naturally be greatly reduced. But the King of the Golden Wheel in the original book had already cultivated the tenth level of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art at the age of 62." "
So, if a person with excellent qualifications cultivates the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, he should be able to succeed in cultivating it in one hundred, um, two hundred, or three hundred years." "
And in this world of martial arts, the upper limit of martial arts is high, and the lifespan will be long. Therefore, there should be people who have cultivated the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art to the thirteenth level of perfection."
"I don't know if the diary can give me the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art when the reward is given next month. If not, I can go to Tibet or the grassland to look for the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art."
"After the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art is successfully cultivated, the body will be strengthened. At that time, I will no longer be afraid of Dongfang and Yaoyue. Well, even if Murong Qiudi is added, it will not be a problem."
Ye Xiu finished writing the diary happily.
Whenever he was in a good mood, he'd write more in his diary than usual. Regardless of the number of words, the rewards offered by the diary were similar. At least in terms of internal cultivation, they were all just one month's reward. Besides internal cultivation, there was also a boost in comprehension of the techniques, meaning increased proficiency in both internal cultivation techniques and external techniques like swordsmanship and knife techniques.
So, all Ye Xiu lacked was experience.
...
Bang!
Dongfang Bubai slammed his palm onto the stone table, and with a snap, it shattered.
Dongfang Bubai's face sank. She hadn't imagined that she'd taken Huang Rong and the others away from Ye Xiu to prevent someone from stealing their food.
But she'd prevented Huang Rong and the others, only to be exploited by an outsider.
"Murong Qiudi!" Dongfang Bubai's eyes flickered when she saw the name Murong Qiudi. She knew that with such a magical diary, Ye Xiu was bound to be surrounded by these wild cats trying to steal the fish.
Unless Ye Xiu was locked up by her side for twelve hours a day, there was no way to avoid this kind of thing.
Not only was Dongfang Bubai angry, but Yao Yue's eyes were also filled with anger. She also had some malice towards this woman Murong Qiudi.
"Grand Palace Master." Jiang Yuyan looked at Yao Yue, who had an ugly expression, and called out cautiously.
Yao Yue gave Jiang Yuyan a cold look, which made Jiang Yuyan shiver.
"Grand Palace Master, although my words may sound unpleasant, given Ye Xiu's unique situation, I'm afraid more women will appear around him in the future. Right now, the Grand Palace Master and the Eastern Sect Leader are the highest-level cultivators around him. But that doesn't mean Ye Xiu won't be around women with even higher cultivation levels in the future. If they decide to do something, the Grand Palace Master and the Eastern Sect Leader might not be able to stop them."
Jiang Yuyan's words were not flawed, but Yao Yue's expression darkened even more.
She knew Jiang Yuyan was right. If something like this happened, she wouldn't be able to solve it.
"So, earning Ye Xiu's favor is extremely important. The higher the favorability, the greater the rewards, and the faster your cultivation level will increase. And to win Ye Xiu's favor—Grand Palace Master, I think you might need to be less aggressive," Jiang Yuyan whispered.
Yao Yue frowned. If she wasn't aggressive, she wouldn't be Yao Yue.
"Well, Grand Palace Master, the force I'm talking about isn't your personality, but rather that there are certain times when you don't need to be so assertive. For example, the night you went to see Ye Xiu—I think you might try not touching Ye Xiu's Xue," Jiang Yuyan suggested quietly.
Yao Yue was stunned. Not touching Ye Xiu's Xue? Her cheeks couldn't help but blush slightly.
Yao Yue's complexion was already a jade-like color, beautiful and translucent, but now, suddenly, this red hue made her look even more beautiful and stunning.
Even Jiang Yuyan couldn't help but be amazed at the change in Yao Yue.
"Grand Palace Master, as a man, Ye Xiu also desires dominance in certain areas. Just like what he wrote in his diary this time, when he and Murong Qiudi had that kind of relationship, he took the initiative from behind. From the words, it's clear that Ye Xiu was very happy and proud. So, if you can indulge Ye Xiu a little, his favorability towards you will definitely increase, perhaps even surpass that of Dongfang Sect Leader." Jiang Yuyan's voice was gentle, yet laced with a hint of beckoning.
Yaoyue's eyes lit up when she heard Jiang Yuyan say that if she could let Ye Xiu take the initiative that night, his favorability towards her would surpass that of Dongfang Bubai.
For now, Dongfang Bubai was still Yaoyue's most important rival, and she still wanted to defeat him at all costs.
So Jiang Yuyan's words took Yaoyue to heart.
And the reason Jiang Yuyan said this at this time, encouraging Yaoyue to give in to Ye Xiu, was also to win his favor.
After all, if Yaoyue really did this, then when Ye Xiu knew that Yaoyue's change was due to Jiang Yuyan's persuasion, then Ye Xiu's favorability towards Jiang Yuyan would definitely increase.
Yaoyue also understood Jiang Yuyan's little calculation, but Yaoyue didn't say anything. After all, although Jiang Yuyan had her own little calculation, what she said did allow her to surpass Dongfang Bubai in terms of favorability.
Seeing Yaoyue's reaction, the smile on Jiang Yuyan's face became even brighter.
The reason why Jiang Yuyan said this time, in addition to wanting to gain Ye Xiu's favor, she actually also wanted to gain Yaoyue's favor.
After all, now, Yaoyue and Dongfang Bubai are the two shields guarding Ye Xiu. If they are not broken, unless it is a woman like Murong Qiudi who is unknown to Yaoyue and Dongfang Bubai, otherwise there is really no way to have a more intimate relationship with Ye Xiu and gain a higher favorability.
Jiang Yuyan used this method to increase Yaoyue's favorability. Once Yaoyue had tasted the sweetness and began to trust Jiang Yuyan, she would slowly guide her, eventually benefiting from it. However, Jiang Yuyan intended to use Yaoyue as a tool.
Besides Dongfang Bubai, Yaoyue, and Jiang Yuyan, who was plotting against her,
everyone else had varying reactions after reading Ye Xiu's diary.
The most angry, or perhaps even furious, was Zhong Ling!
That was Zhong Ling!
Zhong Ling had approached Ye Xiu, even going so far as to hand over the Beiming Divine Art. However, due to repeated setbacks, she had completely failed to gain Ye Xiu's trust, and her favorability rating remained stagnant.
And now, Murong Qiudi, the wicked woman who had plotted against her, had actually slept with Ye Xiu!
This woman had actually taken a shady shortcut to get ahead of her. This infuriated Zhong Ling immensely.
It had been fine before with Yao Yue and Dongfang Bubai, but now, a mere Murong Qiudi, that sinister woman, had actually managed to win over Ye Xiu.
Given the reward system for Ye Xiu's diary, if she couldn't quickly raise Ye Xiu's favorability, it wouldn't be long before Murong Qiudi's power surpassed Zhong Ling's.
The thought of this made Zhong Ling flutter with anxiety. She even felt a little resentful of Dongfang Bubai for pulling her away from Ye Xiu.
If Dongfang Bubai hadn't pulled her away from Ye Xiu, Murong Qiudi would never have gotten this opportunity.
Zhong Ling was furious.
Yue Lingshan, on the other hand, was filled with envy. She had clearly been here first. Whether it was meeting Ye Xiu first, getting the diary first, or being the first to fall in love with him, she had been here first.
But Dongfang Bubai and Yao Yue had beaten her to it, not only sleeping with Ye Xiu but also forbidding anyone else from doing so.
Yue Lingshan couldn't think of a way to break through Yaoyue and Dongfang Bubai's defenses. She passively assumed that once Ye Xiu surpassed Dongfang and Yaoyue in strength, she, Yue Lingshan, would eventually be accepted by Ye Xiu, or rather, that she would be able to accept him.
This was the only solution Yue Lingshan could think of.
But!
She had never imagined that Murong Qiudi, a woman Ye Xiu had only mentioned once in his diary, would exploit this opportunity and win Ye Xiu over.
Yue Lingshan was truly envious.
Although they had developed feelings for each other over time, Ye Xiu's favorability towards her was not low. However, it was still not as high as Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue's. Yue Lingshan even suspected that Ye Xiu's favorability towards her might not even be as high as her mother, Ning Zhongze's.
Therefore, Yue Lingshan desperately wanted to quickly raise Ye Xiu's favorability, at least higher than Ning Zhongze's.
And the most effective way to increase favorability was through that kind of relationship. Unfortunately, she hadn't been able to do that, and now an outsider had done it. She was truly envious.
...
The next morning, Murong Qiudi woke up and
felt a faint pain in her body, which was the feeling caused by being tormented too much.
Aside from the aches and pains, Murong Qiudi also felt a sense of refreshment. After
all, it would be strange if a long-dry field suddenly received water and didn't experience a change in both body and mind. But soon, Murong Qiudi realized she couldn't move. She'd been hit by
a trigger. A flicker of alarm and nervousness flashed through Murong Qiudi's eyes, but once she noticed Ye Xiu, the alarm and nervousness vanished, though she was still a little stunned. Why had
Ye Xiu hit her trigger? "You're awake," Ye Xiu asked with a gentle smile, catching her gaze. "You hit my trigger?
" Murong Qiudi asked bluntly.
"Well, actually, I was worried you'd get too excited. I just didn't expect you to react so calmly." Ye Xiu was a little surprised.
"Are you worried I'd kill you?" Murong Qiudi asked coldly.
"Well, that's certainly the reason. After all, what happened last night was, for you—"
"Actually, you don't need to worry about that," Murong Qiudi said bluntly.
"Huh?" Ye Xiu was stunned.
"After all, what happened yesterday was not your fault. Besides, I'm not a virgin, so I wouldn't necessarily make a fuss about such a thing like a young girl who hasn't experienced anything. The most important thing is that you look good, and it suits my taste. So I don't mind giving you this once." Murong Qiudi said calmly.
Ye Xiu didn't hear any sign of dissatisfaction with him in her voice.
Ye Xiu felt a little strange, but he was relieved.
