"Is it meaningful to ask such a question?" Lu Yanqing shook her head slightly.
"Of course it is meaningful." Wen Lanfeng's gaze was firm. "At least it is meaningful to me. You should also understand that it is meaningful to me. I don't want to give up, and I won't give up. I still want to work hard because you are the biggest reason why I stay in this world. Otherwise … do you know? If I concentrate on my cultivation, I'm afraid the day I ascend to the Immortal Realm is not far away. "
Lu Yanqing looked at him in surprise. "Are you confident that you can integrate the Seven Spirits into your Life Spirit?"
Wen Lanfeng smiled bitterly. "If I can get rid of my selfish thoughts, it should be within a hundred years, or even less."
"Then I should congratulate you. The Cultivation World has not had a cultivator ascend to the Immortal Realm for many years. You are the first person to carry on the past." Lu Yanqing smiled.
"The first person to carry on the past?" Wen Lanfeng mocked himself. "You think too highly of me. Have you forgotten what the Emissary of Hell said? The real first person is Bi Changchun. His cultivation has long surpassed the Soul Formation Final Stage. I'm afraid that even if I ascend to the Immortal Realm, I will not be able to withstand a single blow from him. "
"He …" Lu Yanqing frowned and shook her head. "Why do you have to compare yourself to him? He is different from us. He is too ambitious …"
"What do you mean?" Wen Lanfeng was alarmed. "Are you suspecting that he has some ambition? That's why he has stayed in the human world and refused to ascend?"
"No, don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that he has any ambition. If he does, he doesn't need to hide it. No one in the Cultivation World can stop him. He is too strong!" Lu Yanqing hugged the gauze hat in her hand and sighed against the morning sun. "I said he is ambitious because I feel that he is different from us. Among us, some of us fight for power and profit to be the overlord. Some of us fight for a false name on the Cultivation World's ranking list. He does not care about these things at all. I once heard Nongzhu say that Bi Changchun has been pursuing some illusory Great Path. "
"Great Path?" Wen Lanfeng was surprised. "What is Great Path? What is Great Path? Why haven't I heard of it before? "
Lu Yanqing shook her head and said, "I've never heard of it. I've asked Nongzhu, but Nongzhu doesn't know what it is. I just occasionally hear similar words from Bi Changchun's mouth, saying that it is likely to be a cultivation realm in Bi Changchun's ideal."
Wen Lanfeng pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about him. His cultivation method is incredible. I've never heard of him using things like Spirit Stones. He's walking a different path from us. Maybe the path he's walking is the so-called Great Way! Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. Even if you told us, it would be difficult for us to understand. For Bi Changchun, what he pursued was the Great Dao, but for me, what I pursued was you. I just want to know what kind of man you like. I hope you can point out a path for me to reach the other side. "
"Don't force me, okay?" A tired look appeared on Lu Yanqing's face.
"I've never forced you." Wen Lanfeng's face also had a trace of a bleak smile as he said, "But too many things have happened in the cultivation world recently. I'm inexplicably a little worried. If I don't ask you this time, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to in the future. So please forgive me for being straightforward this time. "
Lu Yanqing turned back to look at him in surprise, as if she did not understand why he would suddenly say such obscure words. She slowly turned back to face the mountains under the sun, paused, and said: "I used to secretly like many men..."
This sentence suddenly made Wen Lanfeng a little dumbfounded. He looked at Lu Yanqing dumbfoundedly, as if he didn't know her.
Lu Yanqing continued to say faintly, "I've forgotten when it was. It's been too long. It seems that at that time, I hadn't been accepted by Master, or maybe I was still at the age of my first love. There are always some men who make my heart beat faster when I first see them. That feeling of shyness and admiration is really good. I was accepted by Master in a daze. After stepping into the Cultivation World for a few years, I realized... Maybe it's because our Spirit Fang Valley has always been practicing medicine and helping the world. I've seen too many secular people live and die. Unconsciously, I can no longer have any feelings for the short-lived secular people. I only have sympathy and help. When I cast my gaze towards the cultivation world, who would have thought that all I saw was mutual deception, unscrupulous competition, and incessant fighting and killing. I was born with an aversion to these things … This is the reason why I never made any choice! "
After listening to these words, Wen Lanfeng's dumbfounded expression finally eased. He nodded silently to show that he understood. Which woman didn't have the age of a young girl thinking of love? After a pause, he said, "Is there no man in the Cultivation World that you like?"
"There was one, but it can't be described as' a man that I like '. It's just that his great compassion made me admire him. There's no love between a man and a woman. If I have to choose one, I'd rather choose him, "Lu Yanqing said frankly.
Wen Lanfeng's pupils suddenly shrank. He racked his brains, but with his experience, he couldn't think of anyone in the Cultivation World who deserved the title of 'great compassion'. His chest rose and fell rapidly as he asked, "Can you tell me who that person is? Do I know him? "
"You know him." Lu Yanqing nodded.
Wen Lanfeng could not suppress his excitement and asked, "Who is it?"
"You once challenged him to a duel because of my slip of the tongue. As a result, you were seriously injured by him and had to retreat for a hundred years. Perhaps you and everyone else thinks I was just being perfunctory, but the fact is that I was able to say those words, and I had the same idea in my mind. I couldn't help saying them, and I ended up causing you trouble. "
Lu Yanqing's expression was very calm when she said this. It seemed that she had decided not to do anything to hide from Wen Lanfeng. However, when Wen Lanfeng heard this, he was stunned as if he was struck by lightning. After a long time, he murmured, "Bi... The person you're talking about is Bi... Bi Changchun!"
Then he came to his senses and shook his head again and again. "No, this is your excuse. I have no opinion on what evaluation you use to describe Bi Changchun, but you said that Bi Changchun is merciful. Not to mention me, everyone in the world knows that he is iron-blooded and ruthless. Countless people have died in his hands. How can he be worthy of the title of great compassion? "
"What everyone sees may not be true. Maybe what I see is also an illusion." Lu Yanqing was silent and said, "I just regret that I don't have Bi Changchun's ability. I practice medicine in Ling Fang Valley and the number of people I can save is limited. On the surface, Bi Changchun seems to be ruthless, but in fact, he has shocked the entire Cultivation World. No one dares to act recklessly. Otherwise, the Cultivation World will be in chaos. I'm afraid that the damage to the mortals in the secular world will be incalculable. I don't know how many people will die. "
Wen Lanfeng said in a deep voice, "This may be your wishful thinking."
Lu Yanqing smiled noncommittally and continued to say, "In fact, with Bi Changchun's cultivation, there is no need to intervene in the affairs of the Cultivation World. No one dares to look down on him. And he does not want to get anything from the Cultivation World. Besides, he disdains to intervene in the affairs of the Cultivation World. Then why does he make a move every time the Cultivation World is in a state of panic? Haven't you noticed? As long as he makes a move, the chaos in the Cultivation World will immediately calm down and restore the state of mutual checks and balances. The timing of his move is very subtle. Obviously, he is not killing for the sake of killing. "
Wen Lanfeng fell into deep thought when he heard this. After a long time, he slowly said, "As an outsider, you can see it more clearly than us. Your words remind me of the purpose that Bi Changchun set for the World Chamber of Commerce last time. Maybe you are right."
"Maybe the onlooker sees the game more clearly than the onlooker!" Lu Yanqing faintly sighed and said, "So I think Bi Changchun is merciful and compassionate. He saved the lives of the majority of the people in the world, but he is willing to bear the infamy behind his back. In fact, he does not care about the infamy behind his back. He is not the kind of person who acts for fame and profit. Compared to the people he saved, my Spirit Fang Valley can only be regarded as doing a good deed at most, but we have received the praise of the people in the world. But then again, although I admire his breadth of mind, I do not approve of his iron-blooded methods in the process of doing things. With his cultivation, there is no need to kill to stop killing. He could have done it more tactfully. There is no need to kill so many people. "
Wen Lanfeng's heart was suddenly enlightened. He understood that Lu Yanqing only admired Bi Changchun and did not really like him. But there were some things that he did not want to argue with Lu Yanqing. Although the onlooker knew some things better than the people in the game, there were also some things that he did not know. Now that he thought about it, if Bi Changchun did not use iron-blooded methods, who in the Cultivation World would be afraid of him? Relying on words to reason, who would listen to him when faced with benefits? He was afraid that Bi Changchun would not be able to deter them even if he wanted to. In the end, more people might die.
"So, Bi Changchun is not the man you like." Wen Lanfeng had regained his calmness. He pondered and said, "But what I want to know is, what kind of man do you like? I want to look in the mirror and see how far I am."
"Before answering your question, I want to ask you a question." Lu Yanqing turned around and stared at him solemnly without blinking and asked, "You said before that you could not face me with the mentality of a friend. Is it because of my appearance?"
"This..." Wen Lanfeng was speechless. The reason why he could not face Lu Yanqing with the mentality of a friend was not because of his appearance, but because he really liked Lu Yanqing. After so many years of effort, he could not convince himself to let it go. But he did not deny that Lu Yanqing's peerless appearance was one of the reasons, because every time he saw her, his heart would palpitate. How could he be a friend?
"If you don't speak, then you admit it." Lu Yanqing sighed faintly and turned to look into the distance again. With a trace of melancholy in her eyes, she slowly said, "Sometimes I hate my appearance, but it also makes me understand what I need. In fact, I am not aloof or narcissistic. No matter how beautiful I am, I am essentially an ordinary woman. I don't have high requirements for the man I like. It can even be said that I have no requirements. "
"No requirements?" Wen Lanfeng could not believe it and said, "Then what are you waiting for?"
Lu Yanqing smiled faintly and said, "If I have to say that I have requirements, I just hope that he can treat me as an ordinary woman. He can face me calmly and let me know that I am not the so-called first beauty in the world, but an ordinary woman. I don't care how rich he is, or how handsome he is, or how high his cultivation is, or how noble his status is. I don't even care if he's a good person or a bad person. I just want to be like an ordinary woman and find a man who can make my heart palpitate, a man who can make me give everything. Is this request really too much? "
