Why Are All the Fairies Trying To Make Me Fall

Chapter 29

Since the incident where the eighth elder personally led people to assassinate, An Xiaoyao rarely left the sect, and the frequency of her visits to Lin Que increased significantly. Every time she came, she would stay until sunset before leaving.

“No wonder Lin Lang respects Master so much…”

Qin Wanyuan watched the dream scene of Lin Que and Jiang Moqing’s cave residence and couldn’t help but sigh at how good An Xiaoyao was to Lin Que. If Lin Que didn’t have a family in the mortal world, she would have suspected that Lin Que was her master’s illegitimate child.

After the disaster, not only did An Xiaoyao change somewhat, but the relationship between Lin Que and Jiang Moqing also began to show some subtle changes.

Lin Que not only spent all his time practicing swordsmanship but also occasionally pondered over cooking. Although there is a saying that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, he obviously didn’t care.

And Jiang Moqing acted as the taste tester, commenting on Lin Que’s dishes. Sometimes when Lin Que was cooking, she would stand behind him, not helping, just quietly watching him.

In short, these two ice blocks seemed to finally spark a bit of fire.

As days went by, the relationship between Lin Que and Jiang Moqing became closer. Although there was still a considerable distance from falling in love, it was gradually warming up.

The only imperfection was that Lin Que’s injury still hadn’t healed.

In the cultivation world, severed meridians were considered an incurable disease unless a great power was willing to help and spend a lot of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to revive the meridians. Otherwise, there was no possibility of a cure.

An Xiaoyao obviously didn’t have such connections, so she could only do her best to make Lin Que’s life as comfortable as possible.

Lin Que didn’t get discouraged or despair. He continued to practice swordsmanship day after day. His originally unskilled left-hand swordsmanship became highly proficient and reached perfection.

In addition, he began to study medical texts, trying to find a way to heal himself.

It seemed that this unyielding spirit moved Jiang Moqing, and her personality changed slightly. She was no longer as cold as before, showing signs of the ice melting.

Because it was a memory from the past, Qin Wanyuan, who was in the present, knew that Lin Que’s incurable disease was eventually cured. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to cultivate to the peak of the Golden Core stage.

But… how did he manage to turn the tide in such a desperate situation?

Soon, Qin Wanyuan’s doubts were answered.

The peaceful times only lasted for three months. After three months, Jiang Moqing was dispatched on a secret mission as the new chief.

It seemed to be to investigate a certain prominent family’s collusion with evil cultivators.

Lin Que and An Xiaoyao both opposed Jiang Moqing’s departure, but… she was uncharacteristically determined to go on the mission.

At that moment, there seemed to be a strange emotion burning in her eyes, no longer cold, but a fiery blaze.

Lin Que couldn’t understand this emotion, but An Xiaoyao seemed to get it, so she let go of her hand.

Jiang Moqing left.

Only Lin Que and An Xiaoyao were left on Drunken Jade Peak. Because of the previous assassination attempt, An Xiaoyao didn’t dare to leave Lin Que alone on the peak, so she couldn’t secretly protect Jiang Moqing.

Even though Lin Que said he didn’t need protection, An Xiaoyao didn’t leave. She just comforted him, saying things like “Qing’er knows how to advance and retreat, she won’t take risks easily.”

Several days passed, and there was still no news from Jiang Moqing.

She was completely out of contact.

This time, Lin Que couldn’t sit still. He wanted to go find Jiang Moqing, but An Xiaoyao still persuaded him to stay, and she didn’t leave either.

An Xiaoyao clearly knew some inside information, but she didn’t tell Lin Que. He was kept in the dark. No matter how much he asked, An Xiaoyao just shook her head and said sadly, “This is Qing’er’s own choice, we can’t interfere.”

Lin Que wanted to force his way out to find Jiang Moqing, but An Xiaoyao knocked him out. When he woke up, it was already late at night.

He looked confusedly at the unfamiliar ceiling, then at the door and windows sealed by An Xiaoyao’s restrictions, and then clenched his fists and slammed them on the bedboard.

The bedboard instantly shattered into pieces, and Lin Que’s hand trembled slightly with anger.

This was the first time he was so angry.

Because he was kept in the dark, because he was completely treated as an outsider.

Seeing this scene, Qin Wanyuan felt heartache once again. She almost forgot this was a dream, took a step forward, and wanted to comfort the Lin Que in the dream.

However,

The next second, the scene in front of her suddenly shattered into pieces, flying away. The last thing Qin Wanyuan saw in her vision was a black and red shadow.

Everything turned into nothingness.

Qin Wanyuan was stunned for a moment, “Is the dream over? But this doesn’t feel right…”

Based on her previous experience, the dream should end and she should wake up directly, but this time she still hadn’t woken up.

The dream wasn’t over yet.

When the void in front of her eyes turned back into a dream scene, Qin Wanyuan was completely stunned, because what she saw was no longer the scene in Lin Que’s room, but a strange scene and a huge building she had never seen before.

At this moment, that majestic and huge building was burning with raging flames, many houses were cut into pieces by swords, Lin Que stood with his back to the fire, covered in blood, his aura like a god of death descending, holding the severely injured Jiang Moqing in his arms, step by step, walking towards the outside world.

And in his eyes, there was a red glow that Qin Wanyuan had never seen before.

Against this background, Lin Que looked at Jiang Moqing and said calmly, “Wang Moqing, is this what you didn’t tell me?”

Using her full name was enough to prove his seriousness and anger.

Looking at the boy’s eyes, Jiang Moqing’s brows lowered, seeming somewhat guilty.

“Well, actually, my surname is not Wang, it’s Jiang…”

At this point, the dream finally ended.

The scene shattered, and Qin Wanyuan opened her eyes, greeted by the familiar ceiling.

“What a long dream it was…”

She could clearly feel that this dream was much longer than the previous ones. Looking out the window, she found that it was already late morning.

Beside her, Lin Que’s eyes showed a hint of weariness and a trace of fatigue that was hard to detect.

‘System, could this shared dream talisman be draining Lin Lang’s energy?’ Qin Wanyuan frowned and questioned the system.

If exploring Lin Que’s past would exhaust him, she would rather know less.

【No, the host’s partner feels tired and woke up late today because he helped the host open the acupoints last night.】

‘Is that so…’

Qin Wanyuan thought for a moment, then turned and gave Lin Que a peck on the cheek like a chick pecking at rice.

“Lin Lang, you rest well today. I’ll cook and make sure it’s all your favorite dishes,” she said softly and gently.

“Thank you, Wanyuan.”

Lin Que did not refuse Qin Wanyuan’s kindness but pulled her into his arms and returned the kiss.

“Hehe.”

Qin Wanyuan got up with a smile and went to prepare lunch.
