"That's right, I really like animals, I even have an adorable monkey!" An Lin looked up at the top of the bamboo and yelled, "Xiao Chou, come down!"
The bamboo rustled and a little monkey descended from the sky, jumping onto An Lin's shoulder.
It had bulb-like eyes, an upturned nose, a crooked mouth, and all sorts of freckles. It looked both ugly and adorable at the same time.
The clown cracked an ugly grin at Tang Shiyuan, then picked his nose …
"Well done, Xiao Chou!" An Lin sent his voice over and praised.
(Did you see my unique fetish and weird sense of beauty? Are you scared yet?)
Seeing Tang Shiyuan's widened eyes, An Lin felt like his plan was on the verge of success!
"In this cultivation world where looks are everything, Mr. An Lin is able to happily interact with such an ugly little monkey, what a rare sight." Tang Shiyuan came to her senses, her eyes sparkled with excitement.
She stared at An Lin, her delicate face blushing slightly as she whispered, "I thought … you were just envious of my appearance, but it turns out you're not a person who looks at appearances. Then … what do you see in me? "
An Lin was dumbfounded.
What the hell was with this atmosphere of intense affection! How could his bad taste be interpreted like this?
What do I see in you? Can I say that I don't see anything in you?
No … she'll beat me to death if I say that!
An Lin shook his head with a smile. "I don't know, maybe it's just a momentary feeling, this kind of feeling might fade away very quickly."
(That's right, that's the rhythm. You should understand what I'm saying, I just have an inexplicable feeling towards you, I'm not really interested!)
Hearing this, Tang Shiyuan lowered her head, her beautiful eyelashes trembled slightly. She took a sip of tea and didn't say anything, no one knew what she was thinking.
Just as An Lin thought he was about to succeed, the woman in front of him spoke again.
"Some kind of feeling in a split second? That's a really good phrase … "
"Sometimes, feelings are like this. You don't know when it started, and you don't know when it will end. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist An Lin and I would be so similar in this regard. "
An Lin was stunned once again. What the hell was going on …
Were they really on the same channel? What was with that admiring look in her eyes!?
"Mr. An Lin, my Master and Master's wife have been dao companions for a whole six hundred years, but in the end, they still separated. Do you know why?" Tang Shiyuan continued.
"Why? Is there someone two-timing?" An Lin's interest was piqued.
Tang Shiyuan shook her head. "No, it's because Master's wife fell sick one day, and she used a voice transmission talisman to inform Master, who was thousands of miles away. Master told her to drink more hot water. Then, the two of them separated. "
"Pu …" An Lin spat out a mouthful of tea.
"Mistress said that Master's heart has changed. If it was in the past, he would have anxiously rushed back to see her and accompany her. But now, he just told her to drink more hot water. There's no love left. "
"That's the power of time."
"Mortals always say that a hundred years of love will be a happy couple, but for us cultivators, our dao companions spend far more than a hundred years together."
"Love may be true in the beginning, but as time passes, love will slowly change."
Tang Shiyuan raised her head and looked up at the sky with a melancholy expression. "Just like the clouds in the sky, they once existed, but time will make them disappear. Just like you said, no one can guarantee how long this kind of love will last. Perhaps it will fade away at some point … "
An Lin's lips twitched. Why did she bring him up again? So his made-up words were so philosophical?
This woman's mind was very expansive. She was the self-explanatory type, and she was also a chatterbox …
"Mr. An Lin, you feel like you're different from others. You're straightforward, honest, and compassionate. You're also very similar to me when it comes to relationships …" Tang Shiyuan's eyes lit up as she spoke.
The thick-skinned An Lin was blushing from her praise.
So … he had so many good qualities?
"So … Mr. An Lin, I'll allow it …" Tang Shiyuan played with a few strands of her hair as she averted her eyes. Her tone also softened.
"Huh?" An Lin blinked.
Tang Shiyuan glared at the confused An Lin. "What I'm saying is … I'm allowing you to pursue me!"
An Lin was dumbstruck!
Holy f * ck, this situation is getting out of hand, what do I do!?
"Ahem … Mr. Tang Shiyuan, the path of cultivation is a long one, why don't we start off as friends? If we really are like-minded, then I'll pursue you. "An Lin was really scared out of his wits. He had no choice but to make this clear.
To his surprise, Tang Shiyuan didn't get angry. Instead, she smiled sweetly like a beautiful cloud, "Actually, your introverted and immature nature is also one of the reasons why I'm interested in you. We'll do as you say."
An Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief. It looked like he had passed this hurdle.
Just like that, the two of them chatted for a while as friends. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.
"M-hm, I still have to go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Soldier to collect my rewards from the sect competition." Tang Shiyuan suddenly thought of something and excitedly said, "I'm going to pick up an elementary rank spirit tool and an elementary rank protective spirit tool this time."
"Huh, isn't the sect's reward an elementary rank spirit tool and some spirit stones?" An Lin asked curiously.
Tang Shiyuan nodded. "That's right, but I have over thirty thousand spirit stones. Combined with the forty thousand spirit stones I earned from the sect competition, it's enough to exchange for a decent elementary rank protective spirit tool."
An Lin blinked. "You earned forty thousand spirit stones? Wasn't it … twenty thousand spirit stones? "
"Ah …" Tang Shiyuan covered her mouth. She knew she had let the cat out of the bag, and a blush appeared on her face.
An Lin stared at Tang Shiyuan in bewilderment.
Tang Shiyuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "I see that you're being honest, so I'll tell you a little secret. Actually, my battle with Kuang Re wasn't as weak as you thought it was … It's just that someone gave me twenty thousand spirit stones. I didn't have much of a chance of winning anyway, so, you know … "
Twenty thousand spirit stones …
Did An Lin understand this trick?
He knew it too well! So much so that he wanted to cry!!!
An Lin was instantly thunderstruck. His lips trembled and he didn't know what to say.
Should he say, "Why did you have to be bribed by a mere twenty thousand spirit stones? Or should he say," Why the f * ck did my one hundred thousand spirit stones … lose to twenty thousand spirit stones!! "
For some reason, he recalled a sentence from Earth Immortal Ming Yuan: "This … is fate!"
…
An Lin and Tang Shiyuan parted ways.
He returned to his resting place and started to think about life.
Tang Shiyuan earned twenty thousand spirit stones, Kuang Re earned fifty thousand spirit stones, and he lost three hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones …
He suddenly wanted to cry!!!
