Focus On The Heart

(~˘▾˘)~~(˘▾˘~)

================

Ji Qingxue's beautiful face was as cold as frost, filled with anger. The content on the jade slip made her chest rise and fall unevenly.

"Do we have a grudge? Why are you making things difficult for my Ji family!" Ji Qingxue said coldly.

The content written on the jade slip seemed to reveal all the weaknesses of her Ji family.

[Don't you want to keep it a secret that your family's patriarch is nearing the end of his life and about to pass away?]

[The Celestial Pill of Fate, Ye Chen is quite good at fabricating stories. You're really foolish, a mere Foundation Building cultivator managed to extract information about your family.]

[Alright, your undercover work this time was well done. Give Ye Chen a reward when you go back.]

Xiao Fan was not an easy opponent.

The aura of intelligence suppression from the Son of Fortune made Ji Qingxue believe that a Foundation Building cultivator could really help a Mahayana cultivator extend their life or even advance in cultivation.

Not only that, Ji Qingxue believed without reservation that he could refine the pill just by looking at the prescription.

It can only be said that when the Son of Fortune encounters the female lead, it's hard for him not to soar.

Once Ye Chen left and the aura of intelligence suppression disappeared, Ji Qingxue regained her composure.

Her intelligence once again occupied the high ground.

Yes, why didn't I doubt it at the time and chose to believe him?

It's terrifying to think about it! She even felt that her thoughts were invisibly guided at that time.

"We don't have any grudges." Xiao Fan said straightforwardly.

"If there's no grudge, then..."

"Stop!" Xiao Fan interrupted her, revealing a slight smile. At the same time, he looked at Ji Qingxue with admiration.

Beneath her beautiful and holy appearance, she hid an elegant and noble temperament.

There are two souls hidden in her body. If she cultivates her soul, should she cultivate both or all four? This question is worth exploring.

"What do you want?" Ji Qingxue sensed the malicious gaze and unconsciously took two steps back.

Xiao Fan didn't care and said, "Here's the deal, I'll help you keep the secret, and you agree to one condition."

Associating Xiao Fan's malicious gaze with the way he scanned her from head to toe, she calmed down instead. "Tell me your condition first."

"It's simple."

"Be my informant and provide me with information about Fluctuating Light Sacred Land."

Ji Qingxue was stunned. Betray her sect?

She shook her head and refused, "No."

"Don't be so quick to refuse." Xiao Fan smiled.

"I am the Fluctuating Light Saintess, I can't betray Fluctuating Light Sacred Land."

"So what you're saying is, you're willing to put your family in danger for the sake of Fluctuating Light Sacred Land?"

"I will find a way to handle matters within the clan."

Xiao Fan said, "Naive."

Ji Qingxue said, "Fluctuating Light Sacred Land has entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, I cannot betray it."

Xiao Fan was prepared long ago.

He had read Ji Qingxue's script several times. At first, he just wanted to see the detailed description of body language in the Secret Realm for critical learning.

But there were only a few sentences, like "the jade body lying horizontally, dancing like a dragon and phoenix, a beauty like jade, wielding a long spear in her delicate hands."

Clearly, several days of the plot were summarized in just a few sentences. The places that should be steamy weren't, this system really didn't know how to appreciate good things.

He flipped through it several times from beginning to end, but didn't see any interaction between himself and Ji Qingxue.

It meant that in the original timeline, except for the encounter in the Secret Realm, he seemed to have evaporated from the mortal world.

Well, taking a woman from the Son of Fortune could be considered a successful villain, so it was normal to disappear from the story.

But this is my villainous timeline. He wanted to expand the plot in the Secret Realm and have a deeper interaction with Ji Qingxue, hehehe...

In the original timeline, Ji Qingxue had a difficult experience.

Fluctuating Light Sacred Land hailed her as the Saintess because she possessed the rare Xuan Nu Yue Yin physique and carried the rare Nine Heavens Profound Maiden bloodline.

And this kind of physique was also an excellent cultivation vessel, extremely rare. In order to gain benefits, she was treated as a tool for alliance by Fluctuating Light Sacred Land and other forces.

Of course, in the original timeline, Son of Fortune Ye Chen would save her and eventually overcome all obstacles to achieve the Great Dao.

"Since Sacred Land treats you so well, with the foundation of Fluctuating Light Sacred Land, it shouldn't be difficult to save a Mahayana cultivator, right?"

"Why didn't they save your ancestor?"

"Considering you are the Saintess, as long as you are willing to speak up, I think there shouldn't be a problem." Xiao Fan said.

Ji Qingxue: "Although I am the Saintess, I cannot abuse my power. I will solve the matters of my own family by myself."

"It seems you have a clear distinction between public and private matters."

"Alright, if I say that you are being used as a tool for marriage, would you believe it?" Xiao Fan continued.

"Marriage? Impossible. I am devoted to the Great Dao and have no personal feelings. Sacred Land also said they would not interfere with my marriage." Ji Qingxue denied.

"It's a pity that what you say doesn't count. Beauty without the power to protect oneself is a kind of calamity." Xiao Fan said as he approached Ji Qingxue.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Getting closer.

The two locked eyes, with only a distance of three fingers between them. The fragrance of virginity entered Xiao Fan's heart, bringing him a sense of tranquility and joy.

Ji Qingxue did not dodge, but instead recalled her past in Sacred Land.

In her memory, she had attended many important meetings.

The forces that came were all similar to Fluctuating Light Sacred Land, even including Immortal Dao families that came from the heavens.

At first, she thought Sacred Land wanted to broaden her horizons, but the conversations with important figures always took place in the core area of Sacred Land, which she had never seen.

The important figures were discussing trades, and the juniors they brought along were left to be taken care of by the Saint Child and Saintess.

Strangely, every time a junior came, they were young men. Many of them directly expressed their affection for her, but she rejected them.

In Sacred Land, the Elders and the Lord always reminded her to make friends with her peers, and even hinted several times that if she found someone she liked, she could try to develop a relationship.

Make more friends, and there were even several times when the Lord directly said she could string along several people.

She used the pursuit of the Immortal Dao as an excuse to brush it off, not thinking much about it, just treating it as casual talk.

And every time, the Lord and the others would send those people away with smiles, while those people would have a serious expression. Even the young men who came later would look at her with reluctance, making her unable to figure them out.

Could it be true, as he said, that I am being used as a bargaining chip?

"Think back, have you cultivated the core secret techniques of Fluctuating Light Sacred Land?"

"And why do the forces that have grudges against your family dare to provoke you in Sacred Land?"

"Even if Fluctuating Light Sacred Land doesn't want to take action, as long as they give a warning, your enemies will immediately send generous gifts to your Ji family, begging for forgiveness and pleading with you, Saintess."

"The problem is, as a Saintess, it seems you haven't enjoyed this treatment."

"Or is it that you, as a Saintess, are not even worthy of a verbal blessing from Sacred Land?"

Ji Qingxue's heart was in chaos. She had experienced all of this and had firsthand experience. She hadn't thought much about it before, but now Xiao Fan ruthlessly exposed it.

Gradually, she began to understand.

However, she didn't want to admit it. She didn't dodge or avoid Xiao Fan's gaze.

"You're trying to sow discord. Your methods are not very clever." Ji Qingxue said in a deep voice.

Seeing that she didn't dodge, Xiao Fan smiled triumphantly. His actions became bolder as he reached out and embraced her slender waist.

His other hand lightly combed through her beautiful black hair like a comb. "As long as the goal is achieved, the means are just tools to achieve the goal."

Ji Qingxue's body stiffened, not surprised by Xiao Fan's actions, but simply unaccustomed to them.

"What do you want?" Ji Qingxue said in a low voice.

This person would stop at nothing, a hero who wouldn't be swayed by beauty. These frivolous actions were just the means he used to achieve his goals.

Ji Qingxue's mind raced, trying to figure out what bargaining chips she still had.

"What do I want?" Xiao Fan smiled and looked at her rosy and tender cherry lips. In Ji Qingxue's astonished gaze, he leaned in and kissed her.

How should I describe this feeling? Hmm.
