Chapter 113 Immortal Plum, I'm Afraid of Dogs
Mei Shiyu quickly covered her neck.
He got bitten by a zombie, and his mind went blank. He even forgot to remove the bite mark before going out to meet people.
Such embarrassing things have happened before.
This also nearly exposed the shocking secret that he had hidden an incorruptible bone within the Bodhi Precepts.
After that, he kept it very secret, but the more careful he was, the more likely he was to make a mistake.
Mei Shiyu lowered her gaze and subconsciously glanced at Wangcai.
He always felt that there must be some connection between the gold ingot and the incorruptible bone.
Then he must be even more careful not to let this secret slip out.
Seeing him looking down at the dog, Li Tingyun coldly questioned, "What, did the dog bite you?!"
Like a vicious dog guarding its food, his most primal wildness was unleashed. Beneath his indifferent exterior, he was already burning with rage, and his ferocious murderous intent surged.
Mei Shiyu's face grew paler and paler, and the way she looked at him completely changed.
His expression was mostly one of bewilderment; he couldn't understand why Li Tingyun had suddenly turned hostile and become so intimidating.
But he wasn't surprised at all that Li Tingyun could turn on him so quickly; he had experienced that many times in his previous life.
"I'll ask you one more time, who did it?"
Li Tingyun gave a forced smile.
calm down.
Think about it carefully, something must have happened during that time.
His mind raced, considering all sorts of possibilities: he and Mei Shiyu had been together all the time, almost never separated, and she was perfectly fine before he went to sleep, but after he woke up, Mei Shiyu was bitten by someone else!
The only culprit Li Tingyun could think of was the green-haired zombie that came to his door demanding his clothes back.
Zombies are bloodthirsty.
Good, very good. He'll dig three feet into the ground to dig people out and grind them into dust inch by inch!
Mei Shiyu remained silent, offering no words.
What does this have to do with him? What does this have to do with him?
Mei Shiyu was fed up with Li's inexplicable madness.
From Mei Shiyu's perspective, this was his first close encounter with Li Tingyun since his rebirth, but the Taiji Hall Master's actions left him with a "first impression" that was as bad as ever!
Having suffered enough at Li Tingyun's hands in my past life, must I continue to suffer like this in this one?!
Mei Shiyu knew that she would suffer no good consequences for offending Li Tingyun, but the resentment that had been building up in her heart was about to burst, and she couldn't hold it back. So for the first time, she gave him a cold look without any regard for the consequences.
Actually... this isn't the first time.
In his past life, he had also gone against Li Tingyun.
Then, he was reborn.
Mei Shiyu cherished the chance that Heaven had given him a second chance at life, but if he lived, he would have to be Li Tingyun's "servant" and watch him give him attitude every day... It would be better to be dead and have peace.
Li Tingyun looked down at that pale yet resolute handsome face.
Mei Shiyu refused to back down and confronted him head-on.
Li Tingyun felt indescribably... lost and bewildered.
He had no idea what he had done to offend Mei Shiyu.
It was clearly Mei Shiyu who had his neck bitten, his dignity violated, his innocence tainted, his character trampled, and his pride broken!
The situation has clearly deteriorated to an irreversible point, and the culprit deserves to die a thousand deaths! He is undeniably culpable! His crimes are beyond redemption! His misdeeds are too numerous to recount!
Li Tingyun only wanted to find out from Mei Shiyu who deserved to die so he could get rid of this idiot. Why was Mei Shiyu angry with him instead?!
This shouldn't be the case...
Li Tingyun had absolutely no self-awareness about his delirious and bewildered state when he went mad.
So when he saw Mei Shiyu's resistant attitude, he felt a little sad, and even a little wronged.
“Immortal Mei,” Li Tingyun called out to him, “I saw that the wound on your neck was quite deep and contaminated with corpse poison, so I kindly reminded you.”
He offered a roundabout solution: "You should deal with it as soon as possible, lest you get infected and turn into a zombie, suffering the pain of having your flesh ripped out and bones removed for nothing."
Li Tingyun exuded a powerful aura, yet remained composed and controlled, even adding a touch of eerie sincerity towards the end.
It was as if a ray of warm sunshine pierced through layers of dark clouds, dispelling the thick haze and allowing us to glimpse the light of day.
If it were anyone else, experiencing that brief moment of oppressive aura would leave them with a deep-seated trauma, even if they weren't scared to death.
Mei Shiyu, however, endured it all.
He looked up and stared directly into Li Tingyun's eyes, "You really are..."
Li Tingyun also stared intently at him, anticipating what he would say.
The two looked at each other, and Mei Shiyu was the first to look away. She rested her hand on her forehead, pinched her slightly aching brow, and said, "You really haven't changed at all."
He was no stranger to Li Tingyun's bold and unrestrained aura.
Even though Li Tingyun hadn't used "realm suppression" at all, an indescribable sense of victimization still instantly crept up his spine.
This feeling is all too familiar.
Rumors circulate that the Master of the Taiji Hall has already grasped the highest realm of cultivation and entered the Tribulation Transcending stage.
Whether cultivating immortality or demonic cultivation, one must eventually undergo tribulation. Great beings who have reached the tribulation stage are in seclusion for most of the year and rarely interfere in worldly affairs, but when they do so, the winds and clouds change dramatically, enough to make the world lose its color and the sun and moon lose their light.
Little did people know that Li Tingyun cultivated both immortality and demonic arts, taking a third path distinct from both. Perhaps the notion that the highest realm of the immortal and demonic paths was the "tribulation stage" was simply not suitable for him.
No one knows what lies at the end of this unprecedented path, and naturally, no one knows just how terrifyingly powerful the pinnacle of cultivating both immortality and demonic arts truly is.
Even though Mei Shiyu spent so long in the Taiji Palace in her previous life, she still couldn't figure out where Li Tingyun's limit was.
There is only one thing that is beyond doubt.
If Li Tingyun were to actually use his cultivation level to suppress others, those people would only be defeated and begging for death.
Just now, the atmosphere was so tense that Mei Shiyu could hardly breathe.
But in reality, Li Tingyun did nothing.
Not to mention the suppression of his cultivation level, he didn't even get too close.
Putting aside the absolute crushing power in cultivation level, just the fact that Li Tingyun himself is unpredictable and capricious, and the pressure he exudes even within three feet is enough to make people hesitate and find it unbearable.
Only the plum rains could withstand it.
In his previous life, he had followed Li Tingyun for many years, like a chief eunuch who accompanied him everywhere. He had to "serve" this cruel and bloodthirsty tyrant every day until he was completely numb.
In this life, he encountered Li Tingyun again. Whenever the two of them got close, he would either have a stomachache or a headache, and there was always some part of his body that felt uncomfortable.
This clearly shows how much he resisted Li Tingyun.
Seeing that Mei Shiyu's expression had softened, Li Tingyun became more confident and pressed her for an answer: "Immortal Mei, I'm still very curious, what exactly bit you?"
He won't rest until he hears the truth.
“…It has nothing to do with you.”
Mei Shiyu covered the side of her neck and gently rubbed it. After she lowered her hand, the bite mark was no longer visible.
Only a patch of porcelain-white, jade-like, and snow-white skin was visible there.
"not my business?"
Li Tingyun stared at that snowy skin, which made his mouth itch. He wanted to bite it, grind his teeth, suck blood, and be fierce.
The unreserved gaze almost burned that patch of skin red.
"……if not?"
Mei Shiyu pulled up her collar and gave him a strange look. "It wasn't you who bit me, and it didn't bite you, so of course it has nothing to do with you."
Mei Shiyu didn't understand what Li Tingyun was concerned about.
"really."
Li Tingyun was very annoyed. "What...what's it to me?!"
He was so upset that he couldn't even pronounce his catchphrase properly anymore.
It's all his business! It's all his business!
Mei Shiyu simply didn't understand his feelings!
Li Tingyun was roaring inside, but on the surface he remained calm.
Although he lacked self-awareness, he was remarkably quick-witted and self-taught in such matters.
The methods for pursuing a wife are complex; the more hasty you are, the less likely you are to succeed.
He was such an impatient person, yet he persevered through the rain and believed that sincerity could move mountains.
Mei Shiyu frowned as she looked at his resolute expression.
I suspect he's up to something again.
Li Tingyun tilted her head and smiled at him, raising an eyebrow.
And while we're at it, we'll kick away the dog's head that's trying to join in the fun.
"Don't touch him!"
In a moment of panic, Mei Shiyu pushed Li Tingyun.
He bent down, hugged the dog, patted its head, and comforted it.
Wangcai snuggled closer to him, looking aggrieved.
Li Tingyun: "..."
He heard Mei Shiyu's sigh coming from the other end of the Binding Immortal Lock.
"Yuanbao, aren't you always fearless?"
"Once you transform into your original form, it's like you've become a completely different person. You won't say a word to me, and you've become much more timid."
"However, seeing your timid look... makes you even cuter."
Li Tingyun: Read. I will never be a coward in this lifetime.
But if Mei Shiyu likes this kind of thing, it wouldn't hurt for him to pretend.
“Immortal Mei,” Li Tingyun said with a smile, arms crossed, “you may not know, but I’m afraid of dogs.”
“I was bitten by a dog when I was a child, so I tremble a little when I see a dog.”
"Could you please get this dog out of here?"
"I have something I want to say to you privately."
