Chapter 817: How About I Strip for You to Check
“Ah??”
This was a blind spot in Ling Meng’s knowledge; could it really be the same person?
The revered Lin Nuo, the Knight, and the unfathomable Supreme Demon Lord Wu Ying Ge? What on earth is happening? I can’t comprehend it—I feel like this world is under his control.
“I can’t understand; you’re both Lin Nuo and Wu Ying Ge. Aren’t they two entirely different people? They represent two opposing forces!”
“If you can’t understand, just take your time to comprehend. In any case, it’s the same person—simple as that.”
“So you’re saying Master has been deceiving me all along…”
“Yes. Deceiving. You’re a Demon Practitioner; you know that deception isn’t strange—it’s quite normal. Demon Practitioners will stop at nothing.”
Lin Nuo said seriously, unknowingly lecturing Ling Meng.
“No… the thought of wanting to kill my beloved Master… and feeling proud of it… I think I’m just terrible.”
“That’s not your fault. Your thoughts are perfectly normal. As Lin Nuo, having the thought of killing him is indeed valid. It’s natural; there’s no need for self-blame.”
Lin Nuo stated earnestly. As an excellent villain, his skill in enlightening others was impressive—multi-talented; aside from killing the protagonist, he could handle just about anything.
“So, do you no longer have thoughts of killing Lin Nuo?”
“Still do.”
“What? Aren’t you feeling guilty or regretful?”
This really threw Lin Nuo off; after talking for so long, she still felt guilty and wanted to kill him? What about your motives?
“Yes, I feel guilty and regretful. But one thing doesn’t negate the other; I regret my past actions. And Master, you hiding the fact that you are Lin Nuo—I don’t hold it against you. However, your concealed identity and your engagement with Qin Shili leave me quite unsettled.”
At this point, Ling Meng’s eyes began to lose their luster as she drew a sharp blade.
Seeing this, Lin Nuo felt uneasy; this girl was scary, she was about to draw her knife.
Quickly, Lin Nuo said, “That was just formalities, just to deal with the so-called family matters. In reality, I don’t have anything with Qin Shili. I’ve already jumped into the Magic Spring; I genuinely belong to the Demon Path—there’s no need for you to doubt that.”
“Is that so?”
Upon hearing this, the sparkle returned to Ling Meng’s eyes, and she lowered the blade.
“Sorry, Master. I misunderstood you. But I do care about you. I can’t stand that woman. If you were to marry her, I simply couldn’t accept it.”
“That’s alright. Just don’t wave knives or guns around while talking, especially not here in my Lin residence—my mother is still here; you don’t want to disturb her.”
Lin Nuo continued seriously, deceiving her, still deceiving her; if he could deceive, he would.
He felt like he had planted the seeds for trouble—accumulating explosives that could go off any day and just explode.
Boom! People are gone.
No worries, as an excellent villain, one must have the ability to handle problems. No need to panic—it’s just a woman. He could manage.
“Master, my father doesn’t allow me to associate with cultivators, let alone marry one. I also loathe cultivators. But Master, you are the exception. You have unique charm and strength, and I would accept you. Though I trust you, I still hope you truly lean towards the Demon Path rather than pretending to side with it just to strike down the Demon Path.”
“Impossible. My heart is set on the Demon Path. Everything before was just a facade—I don’t even consider myself a Knight, not even a dog.”
Though he said this, it had been almost a year since he was treated worse than a dog.
“Oh, that’s good. Sigh, I was a bit rude to your mother before. Had I known she was Master’s mother, I certainly wouldn’t…”
“I’ve said it, that’s not your issue. If you had known she was Lin Nuo’s mother, you probably would have thought about killing her. That’s just your perspective. No problem, no need to care.”
A professional psychological master correctly guided his disciple’s psychological adjustment.
In reality, it was all deception.
Seeing Ling Meng’s condition improve, Lin Nuo felt slightly relieved.
But it was also hard to say whether she would get emotional again and draw her blade.
“How did you faint? Were you being chased?” Lin Nuo shifted the topic.
“Not really. Didn’t the Demon Star fall on Ningzhou Peak? After that, a stream cloaked in Demon Qi poured out, and I sensed an unfathomable power within. So, I jumped in. Sure enough, there was indeed a force stirring inside me, but I couldn’t contain it, and ended up resisting. In the end, I managed to control it, but it drained a ton of my energy, and I just collapsed.”
“So, you’ve managed to control it now. Let me check.”
“Master wants to check? Um… let’s go back to the room; I’ll strip down for you to check.”
At this point, she stammered in a shy manner.
When back in the room, completely undressed, for Master to check—if Master looked at my exquisite body and skin and got a feeling, then the two of us could indulge in romantic pleasures together.
Just thinking about it got her excited.
Lin Nuo: “…No need to strip. It doesn’t help; it’s not like I’m checking through your skin.”
Lin Nuo approached Ling Meng, gently raising his hand and lightly placing it on her head.
This was the warm hand of Master.
It had been ages since such warmth was felt.
One day apart feels like three autumns; how many springs and autumns had it been?
“Master, this method of checking isn’t thorough; I think you should just let me take off my clothes. You see, with our bodies close together, wouldn’t that allow you to feel everything at once?”
“Don’t talk; stay still. You’re affecting my judgment.”
Lin Nuo scolded sternly, causing Ling Meng to comply.
As the Supreme Demon Lord, just a simple head pat contact could convey a good understanding of one’s condition.
Of course, to truly understand deeply, skin contact would indeed be better.
“Your Demon Soul Power has significantly increased and is now stable, controlled quite well. Of course, this relates to your emotions. If your emotions are in turmoil, it can lead to loss of control. So, try not to get angry in the coming days; you’ll be fine soon.”
Lin Nuo withdrew his hand and stated earnestly.
“Not stripping? Well, I guess I should.”
“Why do you keep wanting to do that?”
Lin Nuo lightly patted Ling Meng’s head; the girl had some rather unhealthy thoughts in her head.
“Um… fine… I also want to help Auntie. I’m worried she’ll think poorly of me and won’t accept me as her daughter-in-law.”
“She’s not a bad person, so it’s not a big deal; just wait to eat.”
“Um, I think I’ll head over.”
Ling Meng decided to ignore what Lin Nuo said and hurried towards the kitchen.
Having also learned cooking, she felt capable of helping out a bit.
In the kitchen, Xia Hanmo and Liu Shuqin were busy chopping meat together.
“Miss Liu, I’m sorry to trouble you for help.”
“It’s no problem, Auntie. I’ll be joining the Lin family soon, so this is just some early adaptation.”
“Joining the Lin family? Which brother of Lin Nuo’s are you talking about? Miss Liu, you may not know our situation; we’ve already distanced ourselves from the Lin family. So if you wish to marry into the Lin family, I’d advise against too much interaction with us.”
“It’s not them; it’s Lin Nuo.”
Liu Shuqin had just finished chopping the meat and smiled lightly.
