There were stone stairs at the back of the observation deck. The ones going up led to an even higher observation deck, and the ones going down led to the bottom of the fortress. At this moment, there were already many demons squeezing their way up the steps, and from the sounds of it, they were almost here. Even if they were only low-level demons, being attacked from both sides was definitely not good.

Mu Rong Chun didn’t think that Wei Liang’s choice to save his wife was wrong, since her cultivation skills were still only at basic formation and she would be helpless if she fell into the hands of an evil clan. Naturally she should be saved first, and Wei Liang’s choice had nothing to do with fooling around. The rationale behind Sister’s temper didn’t make a lot of sense.

Liu Qing Yin didn’t look at Mu Rong Chun’s gaze as she angrily spoke to him. “How can it be fine! When you barged into the formation, you were selfless. Don’t protect her!” Her slender and smooth hands pointed accusingly at Lin Jiu.

Lin Jiu slightly smiled.

Mu Rong Chun didn’t understand why Liu Qing Yin suddenly started talking about things from the past, and this matter didn’t make any sense at all. He hurriedly pressed Liu Qing Yin’s hand down, and apologized to Wei Liang and Lin Jiu. “She just cares too much. Please don’t take it to heart, Madam.”

He then turned to Liu Qing Yin. “Sister, you’ve misunderstood. I wasn’t protecting her, but all this while she was actually the one protecting me.”

“Mistress? Protecting you?” Liu Qing Ying said in disbelief as she glared at Mu Rong Chu. “Brother, you…you…”

Mu Rong Chun awkwardly coughed twice. Even if he knew that saying something like this would make Sister feel sad, this was the truth, and he could only speak the truth.

Liu Qing Yin smiled ruefully, but she bit her lips and stood aside without commenting further.

Today, she finally knew how valuable the elderly’s advice was—Girls had to appear weak, only then men would like them.

Lin Jiu…

Except for looking weak to gain sympathy, she didn’t know anything else! She took the Master away from her, and she even deceived her brother! Listen to what he just said! Even a man like Mu Rong Chun who was honest learned how to lie for her!

The hatred in Liu Qing Yin started to expand, tightly enveloping her heart, until it was so tight that she found it hard to breathe.

From her other side, Wei Liang spoke in a light tone. “You guys return to the sect on your own. I’ll stay here for half of the day. Go ahead, I’ll finish up.”

Qing Yun Xi had been quiet thus fur, but now he spoke up. “Master, are you looking for the seed to collect spirit and auras?

Wei Liang lightly looked at him without saying a word.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qing Yin lifted her face. Her dull gray eyes finally started to regain some energy. She had been born with an extremely cold body, and every start of the month, she would have a cold. Wei Liang always kept a look out for the spiritual plant with a fire element for many years, but the search had been fruitless.

After hearing that Wei Liang was staying behind to look for this, the flames in Liu Qing Yin’s heart reignited—Wei Liang never changed! He was still the same as before, secretly paying attention to her, secretly treating her well.

This Master, from the very start, he had always been a very awkward person!

The corner of Liu Qing Yin’s lips couldn’t help but lift. Wei Liang was like her light, and if this ray of light landed on her, she could not care for anything else. All other problems would not be problems anymore if she could be with him! She could even ignore the strict norms and rules, and what could a wife possibly do?!

Liu Qing Yin soon stabilized her emotions.

Lin Jiu realized that the hate coming from Liu Qing Yin suddenly stopped.

Now, she already had five of the lotus petals, the sixth one needed a greater amount of hatred. Liu Qing Yin’s rage for half the day shifted the lotus only slightly. It gave a soft shudder from time to time, and it looked like it still needed another three to five days to start to blossom.

Lin Jiu was actually thinking that a small grasshopper like Liu Qing Yin was also meat, and consuming it wouldn’t do any harm. However, when it seemed that Wei Liang was going to look for the seed, Liu Qing Yin’s hatred suddenly disappeared.

What sorcery was this?

Lin Jiu wracked her memory of the novel, and thought of a small storyline.

Liu Qing Yin was born with an extremely cold body. A few days of the month, she would feel discomfort. Wei Liang always kept a look out for the spiritual plant of a fire element for many years, but he hadn’t been able to find it. Right until the both of them fought, Wei Liang tried his best to get back a fire elixir for her and he secretly placed it in her fortress. Liu Qing Yin was so touched by this that they were on good terms again.

So…this seed could cure Liu Qing Yin’s cold feet?!

Lin Jiu’s heart slightly skipped a beat.

If Wei Liang really managed to find the seed…she just had to see if he would use it on her, or use it on Liu Qing Yin. Then she would know the male lead’s real feelings. Flirty words could be fake, but seeing someone’s actions revealed their true intentions. Results were the most important.

If Wei Liang was intentionally treating Lin Jiu good to trigger Liu Qing Yin, then he would look for a random excuse such as “I had no other choice” to give the seed to Liu Qing Yin.

The two ladies met each other’s gaze.

Lin Jiu realized that the look in Liu Qing Yin’s gaze was one of triumph for her and pity for the loser. The corner of her lips slightly rose with a clear sense of contempt and disdain.

Lin Jiu was suddenly upset.

She could give up on Wei Liang, but the book didn’t say this seed belonged to Liu Qing Yin!

It would depend on their respective abilities!
