Chapter 306: You’re Right

The chill came too suddenly, and Lin Nuo hadn’t reacted yet.

This sudden cold transformed him into a spirit youth.

It was quite warm cuddling next to Qin Shili; especially with those soft peaks in front, both soft and warm.

Even if his entire body couldn’t move, he still had some awareness.

But the sudden icy air caught Lin Nuo completely off guard.

This cold came from Qin Shili, a heaven-gifted girl with an Ice Spiritual Root.

“What are you doing? Are you trying to take my life?”

“Rather than allowing you to marry her into the Demon Sect, it’s better to end things now.”

“Stop, stop!”

“You still call Mu Yiting so affectionately as ‘Tingting’.”

Qin Shili’s coldness hadn’t dissipated yet, but at least she controlled the intensity. Lin Nuo wouldn’t freeze over just yet.

Going from warm to cold was like a trip through the nine layers of ice and fire, and Lin Nuo found himself plummeting from heaven to hell.

“No, I meant could you please stop? Can you drop the ‘Tingting’ issue? I have no intention of joining the Demon Sect.” Lin Nuo was getting flustered.

“But you just swore it was so, didn’t you?”

“I’m tired; I repeated it without really hearing your question. Now I solemnly tell you, no.”

“Alright then.”

Qin Shili adjusted her Spirit Technique, dispelling the cold, then shifted to warm air, and Lin Nuo’s body instantly felt warm again.

No harm done; Qin Shili hadn’t reached the point of wanting to kill him.

But just now, he truly felt he might become an ice sculpture, and the culprit was the woman sleeping beside him.

Even though it was warm now, just thinking back made him shiver involuntarily.

Lin Nuo felt a bit terrified of Qin Shili; serving under this temporary maid, danger always seemed to lurk.

Even the grand villain was starting to feel a touch of fear.

“Some things, I suggest you don’t answer randomly.”

Qin Shili returned to her usual demeanor, calmly stating.

Lin Nuo had no choice:

“Yes, you’re right.”

“You’re trying to reform that Demon Woman, aren’t you?”

“What?”

Lin Nuo was shocked. What nonsense is this? Does she really think I’m a great savior, traveling the world to persuade people to turn back?

I’m the grand villain, and I have no such plans; I merely hope Ling Meng becomes evil and grows stronger. Once a strong villain appears, it can attract the attention of the protagonist and other righteous sect members, allowing me to quietly grow and cause trouble.

But…

If he said “no,” he was afraid he’d really turn into an ice sculpture.

“Yes.”

Lin Nuo quickly changed his response,

“That’s part of my plan.”

“Looks like I wasn’t wrong; you’ve learned profound demonic techniques. You know this woman will achieve something in the future, so you get close to her and subtly guide her towards the right path.”

“Yes, you’re right.”

“This woman will be influenced by you and become the leader of the Refining Demon Sect in the future, thus influencing the organization’s direction.”

“Yes, you’re right.”

“Once this organization is influenced by your thoughts, it’ll naturally decline, which is a great way to destroy the Refining Demon Sect’s power without bloodshed.”

“Yes, you’re right.”

“When she walks the straight path, you can openly marry her without needing to hide.”

“Yes, you… pfft, what nonsense is this? That’s not happening.”

Lin Nuo nearly stumbled again, lying down makes it hard to think straight and easy to regurgitate.

“Is it not? Are you sure?”

“I have ideals and pursuits; I want to think about marrying and starting a family instead of pursuing you!”

“Pursue me? I don’t believe that,” Qin Shili rejected.

“Whatever.”

Lin Nuo said helplessly,

“You’ve been talking a lot today, my Second Martial Sister.”

“Because usually, there’s no one worth conversing with. It’s rare to share a bed with you, so I naturally want to talk more. Actually, I’ve been trying to gauge your thoughts, since your ideas are indeed quite unique.”

“So can I sleep now? We’re not an old married couple worried about daily trifle; you’ve been nagging me for a while.”

“Fine, you can sleep. When you wake up, we’ll go take a bath together.”

Qin Shili leaned on Lin Nuo’s shoulder; she wasn’t sleepy and wanted to watch Lin Nuo fall asleep.

Lin Nuo truly closed his eyes, and Qin Shili didn’t disturb him further. The room gradually became quiet.

…

At the Lin family estate.

The guarding soldiers mentioned that Qin Shili and Lin Nuo would be back soon, but two days passed without a glimpse of them.

It was reported that someone saw Qin Shili flying away on a sword with Lin Nuo, and their destination was currently unknown.

Suddenly taking off made several young ladies of the Lin family erupt with concern.

Most townsfolk and the Lin family members had just about eliminated the Blood Curse after taking medicine, and they were waiting for Lin Nuo, the great hero, to return for the celebration banquet.

But then, Qin Shili had whisked Lin Nuo away, and there was no sign of them.

The Lin family also came to say that Lin Nuo was injured and that Qin Shili took him for treatment; both were safe and there was no need for concern.

Once the Lin family arrived, Xia Hanmo became the key protected object, and no one could touch a hair on her.

Upon seeing this, Liu Shuqin arranged for her family to guard Xia Hanmo.

Luo Xiaoxue was naturally unwilling to fall behind, ordering officials to protect Xia Hanmo, instantly elevating her status.

However, Xia Hanmo was safe and sound, while the three factions protecting her began to clash, each turning into a fiery debate, their insults flying about, creating quite the commotion.

“Senior Sister, where on earth did Second Senior Sister take Senior Brother?”

Su Kexin complained; it had been two days without seeing Lin Nuo, and just thinking of him made her close her eyes.

“Kexin, we’re not omniscient. The world is vast; how could we know where they went? We can only wait quietly.”

“Hmm… those Qin family members won’t say a word; how despicable! Even if Senior Brother is injured, he wouldn’t be taken away alone. Senior Sister, you’re skilled in healing; you could definitely treat him.”

“Kexin, complaining more won’t help. We have no direction, so we can only stay and wait patiently.”

“Hmm… that’s all we can do… by the way, where’s Luo Yi? I haven’t seen her since yesterday.”

“I heard she returned to her residence,” Liu Shuqin replied.

…

“We’ve arrived, Your Highness the Princess.”

A cultivator flew on his sword, bringing Luo Xiaoxue to a quiet small town.

Luo Xiaoxue jumped down from the Spirit Sword, surveying the town, surrounded by mountains and rivers, lush with greenery; it was a perfect place for health and relaxation.

“Your Highness, according to the information gathered from our searches, they have reached this small town. This town is suitable for leisure and is managed by the Qin family. But not just anyone can enter; we’ve prepared a token for you, Your Highness, which will allow you to enter freely.”

The cultivator reported.

“Thank you for your hard work; your efficiency is impressive. If I can find them, I’ll surely reward you,” Luo Xiaoxue smiled.

“Your Highness is too kind; it was just a small effort. Here is very safe, and I will patrol; you can rest easy entering.”

“Alright.”

Luo Xiaoxue lightly swished her dress and walked into the town.
