"Is 55 points of Affection a lot or a little?" Yunshu asked, turning around.
"What?! Your Affection is 55? How is that possible? I only have 47 points!" Mengli exclaimed, then looked at Ling Yi.
"I have 40 points!" Gao Lan looked at Ling Yi.
"I got 52 points!" Zhuang Yuerong also looked at Ling Yi.
Yunshu immediately laughed, "Then it seems I'm actually quite tall."
I'm a little embarrassed to have become the highest scorer right away.
" Ling Yi, what's going on? Why is mine the lowest?" Gao Lan slung the Bloodthirst Sword over his shoulder, looking ready to fight at the slightest provocation.
"What does this have to do with me? This isn't something I can control." Ling Yi shrugged.
How can you control things like Affection?
To be honest, all five women are beautiful, and each has her own unique charm.
However, having lived two lives, Ling Yi had long since reached the point where he had no woman in his heart and could draw his sword with divine power.
Profit comes first; everything else has to take a backseat.
In Ling Yi's opinion, Affection shouldn't even exist!
"You're the one who gave me this Affection, so why can't you control it?" Gao Lan believed she was just as good as the other women, so how come she had the lowest Affection?
The lowest Affection means that Ling Yi dislikes her the most; in other words, she is the least Gravity to Ling Yi among the girls.
Rounding it off, am I the ugliest?
How can we tolerate this?
" Ling Yi, in what way am I inferior to them?"
Of course, the problem lies in the fact that the benefits offered are less.
However, Ling Yi certainly couldn't say this directly; everything depended on the girls figuring it out themselves. Once they understood, their Affection would naturally increase.
If you don't understand, then I'm sorry, but you can't force yourself to accept something you can't handle.
"Cultivation level, looks, figure, in what way am I inferior to them?" Seeing that Ling Yi remained silent, Gao Lan became even more displeased.
[Ding! Ling Yi's Affection towards you has decreased by 5 points. Current Affection: 35!]
"Forehead!"
The system's notification sound directly drained Gao Lan's battery.
Why did the Affection decrease?
[Ding, Host, Ling Yi doesn't like unreasonable women. You'd better be more careful!]
Gao Lan pointed to herself. "Me? Being unreasonable? How am I being unreasonable?"
I just want to ask, in what way am I, Gao Lan, inferior to them?
Gao Lan took out a ten-year Cultivation Card and slapped it into Ling Yi's hand.
"Raise my Affection."
[Ding! Ling Yi's Affection towards you has increased by 5 points, currently Affection 40 points!]
Gao Lan curled her lip. "Very well, I know. This guy only cares about money, not people."
If I didn't have so much cultivation left to give away, I'd give you maximum Affection.
"Has your Affection increased?" Mengli asked Gao Lan.
Gao Lan didn't say anything. She was going to grind monsters to increase her cultivation level, and then use Cultivation Card to max out her Affection. Otherwise, she wouldn't be happy.
Why is my Affection the lowest?
Seeing this scene, the other girls gained a deeper understanding of Ling Yi.
With the added hints from each system, everyone now knows how to increase Affection.
" Qingyue, what's your Affection?" Zhuang Yuerong asked Shen Qingyue, who hadn't spoken until now.
"Yeah, we've all said it, but we still don't know how much Ling Yi Affection you!" Gao Lan, who had just taken a few steps, stopped again.
"Just like you!" Shen Qingyue's voice remained cold.
The moment she speaks, she inexplicably gives you the illusion that it's about to snow.
"Are you trying to dodge the question? How much is it exactly?" Gao Lan was now very serious about this.
"82!" Shen Qingyue said.
"Why?" Gao Lan asked, puzzled. Did Ling Yi like the icy vibe?
" Ling Yi, can you tell me why?"
Ling Yi had a rough guess, but he couldn't say it aloud.
You should ask Senior Sister Qingyue.
Everyone looked at Shen Qingyue Shen Qingyue, who remained indifferent and cold as she said, "I'm probably the first person to suggest giving half of the profits to Ling Yi."
Hearing Shen Qingyue's words, Ling Yi nodded; this reason was entirely reasonable.
Ling Yi and the other women were only connected because of their systems.
They need Ling Yi, Ling Yi needs them too, for their rewards.
To put it bluntly, it's purely a matter of self-interest.
Feelings and such are just a joke for now.
Even if women offered themselves to Ling Yi, his Affection them wouldn't increase much.
It's all about buying and selling; talking about feelings will damage Affection.
Shen Qingyue had long understood this point; she was the first to offer Ling Yi half of the reward and the first to make a deal with Ling Yi.
Furthermore, Shen Qingyue was the only one among the girls who made a truly straightforward deal without any discounts, offering half of what she said she would give away.
The other girls also promised to give away half of it, but none of them kept their promise.
Aside from Experience Points Card, two Spirit Treasure, and some cultivation techniques, Mengli didn't give Ling Yi any of the Spirit-Nurturing Pill, Defense Pill, or Qi and Blood Pill she got from killing monsters.
Mengli got more than just this much loot from monsters.
That little girl is quite shrewd!
Although Ling Yi didn't know what Mengli had revealed, he could Perception that Ling Yi Mengli was holding back some information from him.
Don't forget, Ling Yi's Perception is incredibly strong due to his cultivation technique.
Good and evil, right and wrong, all kinds of emotions, none can escape Ling Yi's Perception.
Mengli held back, and her emotions inevitably Changes, which Ling Yi could naturally Perception.
It's not that Ling Yi is petty, but rather that he's petty about how much Affection.
Gao Lan, Zhuang Yuerong —aren't they all like that?
For example, no one mentioned the green cesium liquid that Zhuang Yue received from checking in.
After all, this is a divine object capable of elevating a person's Spiritual Root to Heavenly Dao Body, so it's normal for Zhuang Yuerong to hold back.
After all, we're not familiar with each other.
Of the girls, only Shen Qingyue was completely open and honest with Ling Yi.
Ling Yi naturally had the highest Affection for her.
As for Yunshu, putting aside everything else, just this jade slip containing the Divine Treatise on Artifact Refining is worth 50 points of Affection.
This is a crafting system capable of creating divine artifacts.
Its value is simply immeasurable.
"I'm going to learn Formation!" Ling Yi jumped back onto the centipede demon's back.
He sat cross-legged, preparing to deduce the Formation.
"I'm going to grind some monsters!" Gao Lan shouldered the Bloodthirst Sword and headed towards the outer perimeter.
"Senior sister, wait for me, I'm coming too!" Mengli chased after her.
Yunshu, Shen Qingyue, Zhuang Yuerong exchanged a glance and tacitly Meditation and cultivating.
It's very close to midnight now.
They only had time to get busy after midnight when the system reset.
Now, the only option is cultivation.
Meanwhile, about 3,500 kilometers to the west of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, there is a mountain peak that rises into the Yunxiao.
The shape of the mountain peaks resembles a Greatsword stuck in the earth.
The hilt is on top, and the tip is on the bottom.
At the top of the mountain, there is a flat area where palaces and buildings are constructed.
Coincidentally, this flat area is located above the clouds, which makes the palaces and buildings appear Piu-piu in the mist, ethereal and indistinct.
This is the residence of the Cloud Firmament Sect, one of the three sects, two palaces, and twenty-eight gates.
Inside the main hall of the Cloud Firmament Sect, Sect Situ Yun was listening to the Grand Elder's report with a solemn expression.
"Sect Master, something has happened at the Ten Thousand Demons Valley. It's confirmed that the Ten Thousand Demons Valley is shrouded in a powerful formation, allowing entry but not exit. The Sixth Elder has already entered, and three days have passed, with no news of him either."
"Furthermore, there are unusual developments at the Demon Bat Cave. They have already lost twelve inner disciples, and it seems that Demon King has emerged from among them."
"Please make the decision, Sect Master!"
