Getting Scammed Can Raise Favorability Too!

Having been struck twice in succession, and with the addition of the "Thousand Wind Blades which has the effect of Armor Break, Nalan Yanran's nearly full Vitality Shield was directly reduced to "0"! And Yang Shan's " Thunder Arc Three-Stage Slash " still had one last strike left!

This blade is aimed straight for the throat! "Stop!"

Yun Yun panicked and, without thinking twice, raised her hand and condensed a Palm Force.

But a second before Yun Yun shouted "Stop!", Yang Shan threw the Thunder Guiding Blade, which was originally meant to be swung at Nalan Yanran, away with the force of the impact.

The trajectory of the Thunder Guiding Blade was deviated, and it passed through the gap between Nalan Yanran's shoulder and ear, with most of the blade embedded in the stone wall.

Yun Yun, however, was a beat slower, and her Palm Force had already been launched.

Yang Shan's remaining Dou Qi Armor was as brittle as glass, and the remaining qi slammed into Yang Shan's body.

Nalan Yanran watched as Yang Shan, like a kite with a broken string, crashed into the stone wall.

With a loud thud, the stone wall collapsed! -5600!

Yang Shan's total health was only a little over six thousand, yet Yun Yun's Palm Force almost killed him instantly!

Dou Huang expert is truly "terrifying"! But Yang Shan was already overjoyed.

Did you enjoy the fight?

It'll be even more satisfying when we lose money later! Yang Shan could have taken back that stab much earlier.

But he just wouldn't accept it!

You have to chop hard at Nalan Yanran's neck, and then drop the knife halfway through!

Yang Shan just wanted to give it a try; if Yun Yun didn't intervene, he wouldn't suffer any loss.

But Yun Yun is indeed a loving and kind master, and she really hit her hard!

Yang Shan has been diagnosed by the system as being in a weakened state and will be lying on the ground for the next ten minutes.

Still shaken, Nalan Yanran saw Yang Shan's pitiful state and threw down her slender sword, rushing over to him.

"Young Master Yang!"

Nalan Yanran wanted to help Yang Shan up.

Yang Shan cried out, "Don't move! It hurts! Let me lie down for a while."

Nalan Yanran had to withdraw her outstretched hand again. Helpless, she could only turn to Yun Yun for help.

"Master."

Yun Yun also flashed and arrived in front of Yang Shan in an instant.

Her expression was complicated; she opened her mouth several times, but didn't know what to say.

She felt that Yang Shan had already lost control.

But Yang Shan had already thrown the knife away before she could speak.

Nalan Yanran unharmed.

Yang Shan, on the other hand, was crippled by her single slap.

What else is there to say?

[Ding! Yun Yun feels apologetic towards the player, but also admires the player's ability and the style of the final blow. Favorability +10!]

Yang Shan was already laughing his head off.

As expected, anything related to Nalan Yanran will greatly increase or decrease Yun Yun's favorability.

Under normal circumstances, it would take some kind of special opportunity and a long period of effort to get those 10 points of favorability.

After all, where would a Dou Huang expert find the time to concern himself with a Dou Ling? Yun Yun produced a pill. "Yanran, give this to this young man."

Yun Yun paused for a moment, then changed her mind and said, "Give it to Yang Shan!"

Yun Yun learned most of what happened in Cloud Frost City from Nalan Yanran, so how could she not know Yang Shan's name?

But for Yun Yun, it doesn't really matter what Yang Shan is called.

Yun Yun's interest in Yang Shan was mainly due to Nalan Yanran.

But it wasn't until now, with 10 points of favorability, that Yun Yun called out Yang Shan's name.

This also confirms that Yang Shan has now truly caught Yun Yun's attention.

It wasn't simply because he defeated Nalan Yanran.

Yun Yun was indeed very generous.

The pills for healing injuries were also simplified by Tian Yao Company, becoming similar to Qi Injection Pill and Qi Return Pill.

Regardless of grade, those that continuously restore health are called "Blood Recovery Pill," while those that instantly restore health are called "Essence Replenishing Pill."

The pill that Yun Yun gave was a fifth-grade Recovery Pill, but its name was not one of the two mentioned above.

Instead, it's called "Blood Regeneration Bone Renewal Pill"! These Recovery Pill with special names cost more than ten times more, but their recovery effects are excellent.

Ordinary Recovery Pill are among the lowest priced in their grade, but the value of this Blood Regeneration Bone Renewal Pill is at the level of a high-grade fifth-grade pill! Nalan Yanran squatted down and carefully fed the pill to Yang Shan.

Yun Yun thought for a moment and then said, "Yanran, step aside."

"Yes!"

After Nalan Yanran left, Yun Yun walked to Yang Shan's side, squatted down, placed her hand on Yang Shan's chest, and slowly injected her own Dou Qi into Yang Shan's body to help Yang Shan absorb the medicinal power faster. The disciple squatted down, then the master squatted down.

The master and apprentice even smelled slightly different.

Yun Yun, in particular, has a faint floral scent, which seems to be mixed with a hint of milky fragrance, and is definitely more pleasant to smell than Nalan Yanran!

Of course, it could also be due to Yun Yun's figure.

After all, Yun Yun is already a mature woman.

Nalan Yanran started cultivating at a very young age, which has the disadvantage of slowing down her development.

Regardless, the healing process was truly worthwhile! However, Yang Shan felt that Yun Yun was being too generous.

This Blood Regeneration Bone Renewal Pill is extremely effective. In less than a minute, Yang Shan's health had been restored by more than half! Yun Yun also withdrew her hand and stood up again.

If it were a regular pill, wouldn't Yun Yun have to squat by it for half an hour?

Now Yang Shan stood up on his own without needing Nalan Yanran's help.

Brushing the dust off his clothes, Yang Shan nodded his thanks to Yun Yun:

"Thank you for your trouble, Sect Master Yun Yun."

Yun Yun: "It was my recklessness. Healing your wounds is what I should do."

Yang Shan: "Sect Master Yun Yun is just trying to protect her disciple, which I can understand."

[Ding! Yun Yun's favorability +1.]

He was almost beaten to death, and he actually got up and said he understood? If this happened in the real world, wouldn't that be blatant sycophancy?

But the logic of NPCs is different from reality; they "live" on the Dou Qi Continent.

Even if Yang Shan pointed at Yun Yun and cursed her for such a misunderstanding, Yun Yun would still have to endure it.

Of course, if Yun Yun Yang Shan a member of the Soul Hall, she would have already torn Yang Shan to pieces with a "hehehe" laugh before he even uttered his first curse.

But Yun Yun is the sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect!

Unlike Yun Shan, who has already cooperated with the Soul Hall.

At least Yun Yun has a conscience.

I wouldn't do such a thing.

Yun Yun: "Yanran."

"Disciple is here."

"Make tea."

"Yes, sir!"

Yun Yun invited Yang Shan to have tea, but Yang Shan was thinking about when to settle the bill for crippling him.

That Blood Regeneration Bone Renewal Pill will be considered medical expenses.

But there are also compensations for emotional distress, lost wages, and settlement fees for intentional injury. Yun Yun is, after all, the Misty Cloud Sect Master, not a naive little girl. She shouldn't think that a single pill can make this matter disappear.

If that's really what he thinks, then Yang Shan's acting was all for nothing! He can't very well ask Yun Yun for it on his own initiative.

That would change the nature of the situation!

The three of them sat down at the stone table.

It's clear that Nalan Yanran is usually engrossed in cultivation.

The tea was brewed terribly! Nalan Yanran lowered her head and drank the tea, clearly in a bad mood.

Before, she was worried about Yang Shan, but now that Yang Shan is alright, Nalan Yanran's mind is filled with the image of Yang Shan defeating her.

She hasn't even used her trump Dou Technique yet! She's unwilling, but seems helpless.

Yun Yun took a sip of tea, her brows furrowed and never relaxed. She put the teacup aside, looked at Yang Shan, and asked, "Yanran said before that you broke the Clear Wind Piercing Sword with one strike, but I didn't believe it. Yang Shan, can you tell me how you knew the weakness of the Thousand Wind Blades?"

Yang Shan subconsciously picked up his teacup and took a sip.

I was so upset that I almost forgot the words I had prepared in my head!

Is this tea made with more tea leaves than water? "That Dou Technique is called Thousand Wind Blades? Its flaws are quite obvious. I watched it once and figured out the method, but Miss Nalan was a bit greedy and used it a second time, which gave me the opportunity."

Why did Yang Shan wait until Nalan Yanran used "Thousand Wind Blades" for the second time before taking action to break it?

Because if he breaks the spell on the first try, even if he had three mouths, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly! This Old Schemer is shamelessly pretending that the method he spent several sleepless nights figuring out in his previous life was something he was born with and broke on a whim!

You can figure out how to solve it after just one look, isn't that amazing?

Having already suffered repeated defeats at Yang Shan's hands, Nalan Yanran was convinced. "Young Master Yang is indeed formidable."

Hearing Yang Shan's explanation, Yun Yun was speechless. "So that's really how it is!"

Yun Yun had also suspected that Yang Shan had previously cracked "Clear Wind Piercing Sword" and now cracked "Thousand Wind Blades," wondering if there was something fishy going on behind the scenes.

However, after watching the entire fight between the two, Yun Yun actually believed Yang Shan's explanation.

From her perspective as a Dou Huang expert, everyone initially thought that Nalan Yanran had the absolute upper hand!

But it wasn't until Yang Shan counterattacked that Yun Yun truly understood that Yang Shan's combat experience was honed through countless brushes with death!

That's why he dared to use such an extremely dangerous method to break the "Thousand Wind Blades" technique! And the starting move of the "Thousand Wind Blades" technique is indeed obvious.

Most importantly, it seems that Yang Shan had already considered how to avoid accidental injury when he made that final strike.

It was Yun Yun who made a fool of herself.

This made Yun Yun more willing to believe from the bottom of her heart that Yang Shan was a genius.

After all, Yang Shan's performance so far does indeed live up to the word "genius".

"That previous palm strike was indeed presumptuous on my part."

Yun Yun took out the Surging Lightning Silver from her Storage Ring.

Besides that, there's also a Storage Ring! Just judging from its design, this Storage Ring is quite extraordinary! Yun Yun said:

"You won the bet, Surging Lightning Silver is yours now. Consider this Storage Ring your apology."

Yang Shan took the Surging Lightning Silver holding the lightning bolt. "Of course I have to take the stakes from the bet, and this Storage Ring too."

Yun Yun raised her head slightly, her originally elegant demeanor now carrying a touch of majesty. "Will you refuse this sect leader's apology?"

Yang Shan reluctantly accepted the Storage Ring, saying, "Then this junior will respectfully accept it!"
