The more Shen Mengli and Ling Yi tried to hide it, the more Jiang Wanqing wanted to find out the reason.
As a radical female critic, once she sets her mind on something, she will do it no matter what.
Late at night, Shen Mengli left her room.
She wanted to find Ling Yi and ask him to clarify her doubts.
But with Jiang Wanqing present during the day, Shen Mengli couldn't say much. Filled with curiosity, she decided to meet Ling Yi that evening rather than wait until tomorrow.
Shen Mengli and Jiang Wanqing's rooms are on the second floor of the inn, while Ling Yi's room is on the third floor.
After Shen Mengli went up the stairs to the third floor, Jiang Wanqing opened the door, looked in the direction of the stairwell, and couldn't help but smile wickedly.
"If Wang Feng finds out that my sister-in-law is having a secret rendezvous with my elder brother, it'll be quite amusing!"
As he spoke, he formed a hand seal, and in the next moment, his body became ethereal, transforming into a wisp of green smoke that drifted down the stairs to the third floor.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Ling Yi's room on the third floor.
He channeled his Spiritual Power into his ears, trying to eavesdrop on Ling Yi and Shen Mengli's conversation.
But there was absolutely no sound.
He briefly extended his Spiritual Sense to Perception area, only to discover that Ling Yi's room was isolated by a special energy layer, which would instantly dissipate any attempt to probe it with his Spiritual Sense.
"It's that strange energy again. It seems like Formation, but it's completely different." Jiang Wanqing frowned.
"These two are definitely suspicious; they're really making my cat's paws itch with curiosity!"
Despite her curiosity, Jiang Wanqing had no choice; she couldn't just force her way in.
She's crazy and stubborn, a bit of a nutcase, but she's not ungrateful.
Neither Shen Mengli nor Wang Nan were people she could handle.
I've definitely been discovered now. If I continue to act recklessly, I'll be courting death.
Inside the room, Ling Yi glanced in the direction of the door, then ignored it.
The entire room was now isolated by the Plasma Shield of the Shapeshifting giant Greatsword.
Ling Yi had tested it before; the Plasma Shield not only possessed impressive Physics defense but could also block Divine Power and sound.
According to the Greatsword, even the Spiritual Sense of Nascent Soul Stage stage cultivator cannot penetrate it.
If there is enough energy, it can block the Spiritual Sense at the Spirit Transformation Stage or even higher.
But the energy consumption is terrifying.
Currently, the Greatsword only needs to deploy a Plasma Shield the Golden Core level, which is sufficient.
"I am a Revive person, just like you, but not entirely the same," Ling Yi said, looking at Shen Mengli directly.
"How are they different?"
"My Revive is Revive after your Revive."
Although Ling Yi's words were difficult to understand, Shen Mengli understood them.
"What about the future of me and Wang Feng?" Shen Mengli asked nervously.
Despite experiencing many hardships, they ultimately found happiness and fulfillment, and have a son and a daughter.
"Is that so? Not bad!" Shen Mengli breathed a sigh of relief.
"You believe me?" Ling Yi asked back.
"I choose to believe!" Shen Mengli nodded.
Perhaps because she had died once, Shen Mengli's mindset had undergone a significant Changes.
In her previous life, Shen Mengli lived a very foolish and neurotic life.
It can be said that one wrong step led to another, and in the end, jealousy and resentment dragged her into the Abyss. She suffered a lifetime of pain for her mistakes and even paid the price with her life.
It's hard for outsiders to judge who's right and who's wrong; only those involved truly know the pain they've endured.
After Revive, Shen Mengli wanted to make amends for the mistakes she made in her previous life, which could be seen as a form of self-redemption.
Ultimately, Shen Mengli is the Protagonist of the story. Her madness, death, Revive in her previous life are all just part of Shen Mengli's character.
Only this kind of setting can better create contrast, increase plot conflict and immersion.
Although the plot is adapted from an online novel, the overall pacing of the story is fine.
The only problem is the mass-produced adult content, with its world invasion plot.
"My younger brother always wears a jade pendant. After the pendant is bound to its owner by blood, it activates a Spiritual Qi Space. The Spiritual Qi within is extremely rich, and one day of cultivation there is equivalent to a year's worth."
"It can also cultivate spiritual herbs and plants, which grow at a rate hundreds or thousands of times faster than those found in the outside world."
"It was thanks to this Spiritual Qi Space that Wang Feng was able to soar Yifei great heights and advance at Divine Speed, which allowed him to crush you and Situ Haoyue in his previous life."
Shen Mengli suddenly realized, "I see, then this jade pendant must be a high-grade Spirit Treasure, right?"
"At least Fourth Pin or higher Immortal Artifact."
" Immortal Artifact?" Shen Mengli was shocked.
"Yes, Immortal Artifact!" Ling Yi laughed.
"According to the original timeline, Wang Feng will activate this Immortal Artifact nine months later, after the outer sect competition."
Ling Yi, pressing his head against Shen Mengli's, said, "In other words, you have nine months to obtain this Immortal Artifact pendant from Wang Feng."
But upon hearing Ling Yi's words, Shen Mengli's face turned pale and pained.
"Nine months from now, after the outer sect competition, is that when I take Situ Haoyue to annul the engagement?"
At this moment, Shen Mengli was not thinking about the jade pendant or the Immortal Artifact.
Instead, it was the scene where she vomited blood in anger after proposing to Wang Feng that she wanted to break off the engagement.
From that moment on, she and Wang Feng were locked in a life-or-death struggle.
Before her Revive, she hadn't thought much about it, but after her Revive, every time she thought of this scene, Shen Mengli felt extremely guilty and heartbroken.
Does she really not love Wang Feng?
Actually, no, they were childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
Wang Feng's doting affection for her since childhood had made Wang Feng Shen Mengli unconsciously accustomed to his presence, and Wang Feng Shadow had long since taken root in her heart.
However, after arriving at the Mystic Heaven Sect, their circumstances became vastly different. Dazzled by the dazzling array of temptations, Shen Mengli became arrogant.
"In my previous life, I never liked Situ Haoyue, but I did like the feeling of being admired!" Shen Mengli said in a slightly hoarse voice.
"I brought Situ Haoyue with me only to make Wang Feng give up completely. At that time, I had already decided that we were worlds apart and had no future."
"But I know Wang Feng's personality. If I don't cut ties completely once and for all, it will only drag on and cause more pain."
Ling Yi nodded, agreeing.
Wang Feng cares too much about Shen Mengli; he's practically in love with her to the core.
If Shen Mengli doesn't pull a fast one, Wang Feng might actually do what Shen Mengli said and continue to pester her, unwilling to give up.
"No matter what, I was wrong, and I paid a heavy price for it."
Was Shen Mengli really wrong?
If Wang Feng didn't have any special abilities, rationally speaking, Shen Mengli wasn't wrong. After all, one was a hopeless cultivator with no future, while the other was a prodigy.
One can Longevity forever, the other will not live past a hundred years.
If they are forced to stay together, what will things be like thirty or fifty years from now?
Wang Feng had turned white, but Shen Mengli remained radiant, even dazzling.
With white hair and an old man adorned in makeup, a pear blossom tree overshadows a crabapple blossom?
Just imagine the imagery; any woman would find it hard to accept.
However, from an emotional standpoint, Shen Mengli's actions are indeed despicable.
Love, in the eyes of most people, is ultimately Divine.
But the reality is that most love is mixed with too many things: daily necessities, birth, aging, illness, death, poverty, wealth, and social disparities.
No one can avoid it.
"Why didn't you take Wang Feng's jade pendant?" Shen Mengli took a deep breath and looked at Ling Yi, asking in return.
"Heh, that jade pendant is a priceless treasure in your eyes, but to me it's just an ordinary item," Ling Yi said disdainfully, shaking his head.
"To treat Immortal Artifact as an ordinary thing?" Shen Mengli didn't believe it.
Believe it or not.
"Are you telling me all this to test me and see what I'll choose?" Shen Mengli asked.
"Yes, I really want to know what your choice will be." Ling Yi nodded.
"What if I choose to steal Wang Feng's jade pendant?"
I really hope you get this jade pendant.
"Are you serious?" Shen Mengli frowned.
"Of course I'm serious!"
"Why?" Shen Mengli couldn't understand.
Even if Ling Yi doesn't care about Immortal Artifact, Wang Feng is still Ling Yi's younger brother. Would he just stand by and watch Ling Yi snatch Wang Feng's jade pendant?
"Believe it or not!" Ling Yi said again.
If Shen Mengli really did steal Wang Feng's jade pendant, it would help Ling Yi verify something.
"If it were my past life, I might have really chosen to steal Wang Feng's jade pendant!"
"And now?" Ling Yi asked.
Shen Mengli shook her head. "No!"
"I believe you!" Ling Yi said with a smile.
In the original storyline, Shen Mengli, after her Revive, doted on Wang Feng immensely.
Goodness, the plot is so sweet it's making my teeth hurt.
Especially after Wang Feng joined the inner sect, the two were inseparable, almost always together, like conjoined twins.
They practically share the same bathroom.
To put it simply, this web novel that came out of A is a sweet romance novel featuring a female protagonist, and it's a female-oriented novel.
Cultivating immortality? What kind of immortality are you cultivating? Cultivating immortality is just a facade.
Ling Yi, for one, was in agony from watching it.
Even later in the story, after Shen Mengli learned the secret of the jade pendant, she never harbored any intention of stealing it.
The whole thing is just sweet.
Ling Yi, a grown man, really can't read this kind of sweet romance novel.
The novel was originally titled "The Villainous Female Sinner Revive, Never to Leave You in This Life!", but Ling Yi felt that the title was wrong.
It should be called "The Villainous Female Sinner Revive: A Doting Husband!"
"Can you tell me what the future holds for me and Wang Feng?" Shen Mengli asked.
After a brief hesitation, Ling Yi recounted the general plot to Shen Mengli.
Shen Mengli initially listened with a sweet smile, but as she listened, she sensed something was off.
"Wrong!"
"What's wrong?" Ling Yi asked, puzzled.
She stared intently at Ling Yi and said, "You'll die during the Demonic Sect invasion a month from now, won't you?"
"Normally, I would indeed be dead, but since I've Revive, how could I possibly die again?"
"No, you said you were Revive after I Revive, which means that in my Revive future, you still died."
"Yes, he's dead!" Ling Yi nodded with a smile.
"If that's the case, then you should have died when the Demonic Sect invaded. Even if you were Revive, you should Revive from this moment."
"You shouldn't have been there when Wang Feng vomited blood, so how did you know all this?"
"Hmm, how do you explain this!" Ling Yi scratched his head.
"You are not Wang Nan," Shen Mengli said seriously.
"Oh wow, you guessed that?" Ling Yi still didn't deny it.
"Then who exactly are you? To know these things, and to know about the future invasion of the Heavenly Devil, you must be someone I know."
"Could it be that you are Wang Feng? Wang Feng are not Wang Feng? Otherwise, why would you let me steal Wang Feng's jade pendant?"
Um, you're overthinking it.
