YM778.TV Chapter 42 Whose Defeat?
The cold wind was piercing and clear, insects chirped shrilly, just like Tian Liuli\'s heart at that moment.
She didn\'t know why, but after hearing Liu Ruoxue\'s words, a sudden ripple of unease burst forth in her heart lake.
Although her failure to transcend in her previous life was due to Xu Yuan,
in reality, because she had been overly fixated on attaining eternal life through the great path in her past life, she never had any substantial contact with him; he was the one wholly devoted.
Regrettably, even when he ultimately sacrificed himself for her, there was not a speck of dust in her heart.
Until that Heart Demon trial.
During that Heart Demon trial, when their positions were reversed, she finally understood how deeply his feelings for her ran.
Regrettably, by then …
Her realization had come too late.
Thus, regarding matters between men and women, Tian Liuli was not very clear.
Her bold actions in Xu Yuan\'s room that night were also a first in her memory; otherwise, with her eternally unchanging Heart Realm, even faced with her Heart Demon, she wouldn\'t have gone so easily.
Thinking of this, Tian Liuli suddenly felt her Obscene Clothing slightly heavy and damp—perhaps the crafty dew had penetrated it, making it clingy.
Tian Liuli exhaled lightly, as if she had come to some understanding.
At this moment, the glow in her eyes was brighter and colder than the cold moon.
Tian Liuli no longer hesitated, nor did she think about her or his ultimate motives, and turned towards Xu Yuan\'s room.
It was at this moment that Liu Ruoxue suddenly understood the vitally important secret Xu Yuan had spoken of.
He had never planned, or perhaps …
"There cannot be two suns in the sky, nor two tigers on a mountain. If there are two tigers, they must fight, and one must be hurt. So that\'s how it is."
When she had previously held Xu Yuan hostage, it was easy to maintain a superficial peace under the threat of external forces, but once that external force was gone, the conflict between them was bound to erupt quickly, especially with Xu Yuan still in a "deep sleep"; they no longer needed to care about their images in his heart.
Liu Ruoxue was thoroughly enlightened and felt increasingly terrified of Xu Yuan\'s scheming.
No, rather than calling it scheming, it would be better to say that his understanding of human nature was extremely keen.
He did very little, yet easily sparked suspicion and conflict between them.
Even if they reflected on it afterward, it was very difficult to perceive that he had been stirring up trouble between them.
No, even if they realized it, they wouldn\'t consider it stirring up trouble because… eliminating the other was exactly what they most wanted to do.
Without her previous words, a war between them would surely have erupted sooner or later anyway.
As a jealous lover, how could she tolerate another who liked her beloved, lingering around the one she loved?
The moment Tian Liuli pushed open the door, what she saw was what she least wanted to see, yet it was expected.
Lin Qingque was standing with her head lowered, her long hair disheveled, and her dress loosely open, resembling a blooming white lotus.
But at this moment,
this pure lotus, unmarred by mud, was pressing down on a bee, "forcing" it to gather nectar.
Not only that, under the guise of "healing", she was trying to strip his clothes off in a very unseemly manner while constantly whispering in his ear things like, "Remember, senior brother, you like me from the bottom of your heart. Every night, you secretly take my clothes to reward yourself."
In the moonlight, her eyes seemed to twinkle with love.
This scene appeared extremely seductive yet utterly pure.
Suddenly, a fierce rage ignited from Tian Liuli\'s heart lake.
Clang!
The long sword hummed gently!
Her expression was colder than the lone moon in the sky, and her Sword Qi was colder than the desolate meteor.
The red sword light, as soft and swift as a fairy\'s rosy clouds, shattered the wooden door between the two.
Lin Qingque looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, yet there was little panic to be seen.
The snowy white and delicately beautiful curves undulated slightly, and an invisible and intangible force, like a spider web, unfolded in front of them.
At the same time, she picked up Xu Yuan and retreated explosively.
Clang!
The sparks bloomed like a lotus, blocking the sword light.
The door creaked in the blast of air.
Tian Liuli\'s face was expressionless, as if she had anticipated this outcome, her jade hand had already finished forming the seals, and her figure swayed slightly.
In an instant, she teleported above and behind Lin Qingque, her other hand falling from high to low, her cultivation surging like a spring and solidifying like a mountain in her palm.
Lin Qingque remained unruffled by the turmoil; her lush, soft eyelashes fell like reeds under the palm wind, yet her eyes were deep and profound.
Bang!
The pre-arranged invisible net of Heart Power trapped Tian Liuli like a trap.
But her figure only paused slightly; she was not a butterfly, nor a fish or shrimp, but a meteor. A net can trap butterflies and fish, but how can it trap a meteor?
With a boom, she easily broke through the Heart Power.
Lin Qingque\'s face paled, she clenched her fist without sorrow or joy, and punched fiercely.
Despite the delicate and graceful fist, one could faintly hear a sound like sea waves roaring as it struck.
Tian Liuli\'s face also rarely showed a touch of solemnity; she formed her fingers into a sword, sketching it lightly yet as if dragging a tremendous weight, piercing through difficulties as if breaking barriers.
"Break."
She uttered calmly and indifferently.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
The next moment, the entire wooden house exploded into a pile of dust, which rose and fell, as profuse as snow.
When the snow had settled, the figures of the two were revealed again.
Tian Liuli, with her hands behind her back, looked indifferently at Lin Qingque, whose mouth was bleeding, and said domineeringly, "Even though I carry the Heart Demon and lack the relics of past lives, I am still invincible in our realm. To think of being my opponent, you are ten thousand years too early. Earlier I spared you, merely out of consideration for Mr. Xu. Now, he hasn\'t awoken, and I\'d like to see, who can save you?"
By the end of her speech, her eyes were filled with an abundant killing intent.
Lin Qingque scoffed coldly, "Pah! With your attitude, you still have the nerve to say you love my senior brother? Constantly worrying he\'ll change his heart, ceaselessly testing him; do you really love him?"
"If I didn\'t love him, why would I test him?"
Tian Liuli\'s eyes bore a chilling oppressiveness, even more despair-inducing than a storm, "Do you think everyone is worthy of my testing?"
"Hmph, I think you know you\'re not a normal person, that\'s why you\'re constantly worried he won\'t like you, right?"
Lin Qingque couldn\'t help but spit out another mouthful of blood, her eyes dull and lusterless.
"Hmph, this kind of behavior is probably what a normal person would display, right? On the other hand, you, you\'re not a normal person, doing such despicable things to him? You must be worried he can\'t accept you, thus you need to stoop so low, even whispering those words into his ears while he dreams, trying to hypnotize him, right?"
Tian Liuli, faced with her mockery, remained unmoved and even retorted.
"Cough! Unfortunately for you, no matter what, in the end, I won. Even if you have his person, you are destined not to win his heart. Soon, his heart will be filled only with me."
Lin Qingque didn\'t argue but just looked at her with those pitiful eyes and then burst into triumphant laughter.
