Tomorrow We Still Have to Fight...
"Xiao Li... Xiao Li, wait a minute... Xiao Li..."
In the mountains, two women chased each other, and finally, near a mountain waterfall, the girl behind grabbed her wrist...
"Elder Sister Qing Wan..."
She bit her lip, lowered her head, and slowly turned around. Tears streamed down her face, her heartbroken appearance eliciting immense pity.
Gently pulling Mo Li into her arms, Lin Qingwan stroked Mo Li's soft, long hair, unsure of what to say.
Ultimately, it's all Little Lin's fault, that Big Pig Trotter! He's always chasing after women!
Not only do they flirt, but they also lack self-awareness.
When Mo Li heard that "Grandpa really wants to marry her off to him," she was very happy.
But to my Little Lin, that Big Idiot Xiao Lin refused outright, and even told Mo Li's Sister not to worry...
Wouldn't that be like saying, "I don't actually have any feelings for you at all"?
Little Lin, you Big Idiot!
"Elder Sister Qing Wan, does Young Master Jiang dislike me at all...?"
In Lin Qingwan's arms, the girl slowly raised her head, with glistening tears in her eyes.
"Silly girl, my Mo Li so handsome, how could any man in the world not like him?"
"But Young Master Jiang..."
"That's because Little Lin is stupid..."
Lin Qingwan gently stroked the nose of the girl in her arms and smiled.
"Mo Li, Little Lin n't let Little Lin's reputation as a Flower-Picking Thief fool you. He doesn't understand girls' feelings at all. For example, I've made it so obvious, but Little Lin hasn't even noticed my feelings."
Until that Ethereal Lantern Festival, if I hadn't jumped into Little Lin's arms, that idiot would probably still be completely in the dark.
So don't worry, Mo Li's Sister. Little Lin Mo Li thought you didn't want to be with him and that your tears were a sign of resistance, which is why he was so eager to explain. He does have feelings for you Mo Li's Sister.
Besides, so what if she doesn't have feelings for him now? Girls should know how to pursue their interests.
Wiping away Mo Li's tears, Lin Qingwan said playfully, "Then we'll tie Little Lin up, throw him on the bed, and after one night, it'll be too late. What can that stubborn Little Lin do then?"
Hearing Elder Sister Qing Wan's gentle words, Mo Li's pretty face flushed red to her ears, and she couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if that night really came to pass.
Suddenly, a wisp of white smoke rose from the girl's body, as if she were about to be cooked.
Actually, Lin Qingwan was quite shy when she said those words, but she decided to be a little shy in order to comfort her Mo Li's Sister.
Oh my god... If Little Lin knew what I was thinking, would she hate me for having such dirty thoughts...?
"Elder Sister Qing Wan, I would like to express my feelings to Young Master Jiang after the Sect Martial Arts Competition tomorrow, is that alright?"
While Lin Qingwan was still blushing at her own thoughts, Mo Li said softly.
"Silly girl, you can do it!"
The girl smiled gently and lightly stroked Mo Li's cheek.
"Let's go and talk to them together then."
At night, Jiang Lin and the others stretched as they emerged from the woodshed in the backyard of the house, putting away some of the torture instruments they had brought from the Sun Moon Sect, such as rubber bands, Nail Clippers, and bird feathers.
Inside the woodshed, the guy tied to the chair, after enduring torture for the duration of an incense stick's burning, slumped in the chair as if he had been completely broken, looking utterly dejected...
As expected, the disciples of the Empty Spirit Sect are like flowers in a greenhouse, easily withered by the wind. Back then, at least the three disciples of the Dugu Demonic Sect lasted for most of the night.
"Brother Jiang Brother Jiang, is Ma Dongqiang, the Senior Disciple the Empty Spirit Sect, your rival in love?"
Diao Da asked curiously as he put the fine hairs from his armpits, which he had used for the torture, back into place.
Jiji Bo added, "I think it's not just a love rival. That Ma Dongqiang is worried that Brother Jiang will marry Mo Li and reach the pinnacle of his life, thus squeezing out his future position Sect Leader, so he sent someone to cause trouble."
"Sigh, never mind that. Diao Da, you guys go back and get some rest. There's a competition tomorrow. Whatever the opponent's intentions are, we won't be in the Empty Spirit Sect after tomorrow."
"Brother Jiang, I'm going back for a bath now."
"I'm going to bed too. Call me when it's time to eat; I'm exhausted after a long day."
With a wave of his hand, Diao Da and the others went to their respective courtyards, while Jiang Lin also returned to his own courtyard and began to ponder.
In fact, Jiang Lin didn't tell them that if Ma Dongqiang was only making trouble because he was jealous or because he might be competing with him for the position of the Empty Spirit Sect Leader, then it wouldn't be a big deal.
The question is, does that mean the system can define him/her as a "villain"?
Although this system task was very simple and the reward was so-so, only five thousand Notoriety Points.
However, Jiang Lin sensed that there was definitely a lot of hidden information behind this!
If my intuition is correct, this Ma Dongqiang must be connected to the Demon Race World.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be qualified to be defined as a villain by the system.
Aside from the one night when rumors of her affair with Mo Li spread in Empty Spirit City, Wu Die has made no other moves so far.
But Jiang Lin knew she would not leave empty-handed! What she was after was definitely not small!
Tomorrow is the last day of the Sect Martial Arts Competition, and all the actions will be revealed tomorrow. If I tell the sect Sect Leader of the Empty Spirit Sect now that "your Senior Disciple is actually a traitor," no one will believe me.
Others might even think I'm trying to sow discord...
Everything will have to wait until tomorrow.
Jiang Lin looked up at the starry sky.
"Wu Die... what exactly do you want to do?"
In an ordinary little village in the Empty Spirit Sect mountain range, a girl who had thanked Aunt Wang for the eggs was scratching the chin of Little Fat Cat on her lap in the yard.
"That's wonderful, you're so carefree."
Meow~~~
The girl lifted the white cat up and chuckled softly.
I looked up at the night sky.
I'm really looking forward to tomorrow.
"Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi, come sleep with me~~~~"
"Xiao Yi, don't run away~~~ Xiao Yi ~~~"
"Master, it's so crowded, let's get off!"
"Hey~~~No, please~~~ Xiao Yi ~~~"
Inside the inn, Bai Qianluo, still like a little girl, cuddled and rubbed against her disciple.
Watching the master and disciple bickering, a relationship unchanged for a thousand years, the one-eyed woman shook her head and slowly closed her eyes.
There's going to be another fight tomorrow...
"Mother, will Elder Sister Qing Wan really come back with us?"
In the night sky, a chubby little girl who looked no more than twelve years old, carrying ten long swords on her back, raised her head and looked at her mother beside her.
"Not coming back? Ha! She's been gone for seven or eight years! Still not coming back?! Has she grown too big for her britches?"
The woman flicked her jade sleeve, releasing bursts of sword energy.
In the Demon Race World, beneath that Red Moon, countless demons who had already cultivated into human form walked in one direction.
I heard it from the old folks.
There are many powerful individuals in the Vast and Righteous World.
This is very interesting.
