Divorce Means Splitting Everything in Half

"Daily progress leads to mastery of skills."

Just as the name suggests, the destiny that Lin Qi obtained allows her to gain "power" through cultivation.

These "skills" can then be used to elevate the level of one's Technique Method.

In other words, Lin Qi only needs to work hard to continuously improve his Technique Method abilities, such as Sword Intent.

In her previous life, it was this very destiny that allowed her to cultivate two Sword Intent when she reached the Purple Mansion, Two Divine Abilities!

Its value is self-evident.

Lin Qi's parents were unaware of this matter from the beginning, so it wasn't until later that she realized how much her grandfather favored her.

If the father had spent more time with him when he was a child, perhaps...

That's enough. There are no "maybes." Even with the "Jade Gui," could the parents' personalities have prevented that outcome?

Even if it were avoided, things might not be much better.

After all, who knows if, years later, the gods in heaven will remember their family and then casually crush them to death?

In Mingyang City, in the Lower City of the Dark Air Realm, inside a pitch-black shop, as Lin Qi tiptoed, she thought about many things.

But looking at the person before her in the end, she felt relieved. "Meeting someone like him, perhaps reincarnation isn't such a bad thing after all..."

He passed on the "skills" he had accumulated over the past few days to Lü Yuan.

Lin Qi stared blankly into thought.

Perhaps it was only for a moment, or perhaps it was a long time later, after all the accumulated "skill" was passed on to Lü Yuan.

Lin Qi slowly returned to his original position, staring at the silver line and at Lü Yuan, who was still in a daze and must have just made a subconscious reaction.

I don't know what to say.

Finally, she smiled helplessly, reached out her hand, gently pursed the traces on her lips, and whispered.

"This is my first time doing something like this, so I'm not very skilled. If you feel your technique isn't good enough, just forget about it."

"As for what I just gave you, and where it came from... just like you said before, don't ask, we're still good friends."

"And its usage is very simple. As long as you consciously guide it while practicing swordsmanship, it will automatically improve your swordsmanship level."

"Of course, there are no side effects; otherwise, I wouldn't have given it to you."

"Getting back to the main point, what I just gave you should be enough to elevate your Sword Light to the level of Sword-Ray."

"Consider this payment for the medicine I've been taking these past few days and as a token of my gratitude for this matter..."

While Lin Qi was speaking, Lü Yuan fell silent for a moment, as he was sensing what was surging into his body.

Also, I was reminiscing... cough cough, I forgot what just happened.

But after hearing Lin Qi explain the function of the thing inside his body, Lü Yuan forgot all about how he had just been taken advantage of.

Unconditional improvement in swordsmanship level?

What is this "Record of Riding in the Emperor's Chariot to View the North Pole"?

Although it wasn't as exaggerated as the improvement in Immortal Method wielded by the Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan, it was still terrifying enough.

Moreover, there's clearly more than just this much; it almost seems like some kind of product.

What exactly is on Lin Qi?

Did you forget anything when you opened your account with Immortal Book?

Lü Yuan was very curious, but he hadn't forgotten what Lin Qi had just said, and he wasn't going to give up the big fish for the sake of short-term gains.

So he simply frowned, reached out and placed his hands on Lin Qi's shoulders, and softly asked her in response to her somewhat flustered and bewildered gaze:

Are you sure?

As Lin Qi had said, he didn't ask about its origin, but simply confirmed the function of the thing inside her body.

What if its origin is unclear and too alluring?

Go back and ask the Immortal Book directly. If the Immortal Book can't give you an answer, then slowly work on winning over Lin Qi. One day she will tell you.

Looking at Lü Yuan's expression, which was purely one of curiosity, Lin Qi wondered what she was thinking, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

After a pause, he answered softly.

"I'm sure... Don't ask why, but it's okay. Just don't tell a third person, not even Wang Yan-- "

However, after Lin Qi finished speaking, he saw Lü Yuan's eyes light up and he leaned closer to him just like he had leaned closer to him earlier.

Is there anything else?

"Does this require that to be transmitted?"

He spoke excitedly as he bent down to ask for more.

Lin Qi hadn't initially planned to refuse, but after hearing what he said, she bit her lip.

"It's all gone, not a single bit!"

The girl puffed out one cheek and reached out to press her hand against Lü Yuan's face. "Even a hen takes time to lay eggs, and this is all we have right now!"

"Also, this is to pay for the medicine I needed before, and also to thank you for your help this time. If you want more next time, be nice to me—"

As Lin Qi spoke, she turned her head slightly. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have given you these precious things for nothing..."

But before she could finish speaking, the girl felt herself being hugged by the person in front of her.

He...

What is he going to do?

I already said no more!

Lin Qi turned around, hurriedly stretched out another hand, and snorted, "Really, there's nothing left. I told you, there's really nothing left!"

But Lü Yuan seemed completely unconcerned about Lin Qi's words, as if he wasn't doing this for more "power".

He naturally reached out and touched her cheek as she froze, her face slightly flushed.

Just as Lin Qi's hands went limp--

Just when they thought he was being sincere this time and not after "power," and were prepared to passively accept his next beastly act.

But she heard Lü Yuan say very seriously and solemnly, "I remember that our giant company has a principle that divorced couples split their joint property in half, right?"

"Look at our incredibly close brotherly relationship..."

"After I get into a junior college, I'll get a marriage certificate with you as a cover, and it's a sure thing that I'll take you to the Upper City."

"Since it's all set in stone, how about taking out a loan for the future?"

"Alright, the loan isn't finalized yet. Since that's the case, I'll now unilaterally announce—"

"Although we haven't registered our marriage yet, it's reasonable for us to get a divorce now, and therefore, it's also reasonable to divide some of our marital property..."

"How about this, I won't take advantage of you. I'll give you a 500,000 yuan interest-free loan right now, and you give me half of the material that created this thing..."

"How about it?"

Lü Yuan recounted what he considered to be the fairest of deals, but the girl in front of him was already blushing.

What is a brotherly relationship?

What does it mean to provide cover?

What does it mean to divide marital property now?

"You really are something else, always so clueless about romance at times like this, and always looking out for something in return..."

Lin Qi sighed helplessly to himself, then looked at the person in front of him and sighed softly.

But after she came to her senses, she murmured to herself.

"I'm not even sure if you're trying to cover up what just happened by saying this."
