After Favorability Is Maxed

Her previous words seemed to be reprimanding Liu Yuan for being a Playboy, but in reality, every word was complaining about how he had let her down and venting her jealousy. However, she could not express it in front of her disciple, so she distorted it into a look as if she wanted to kill him to get rid of evil for the people.

However, in reality, in terms of pride, Netherworld was clearly superior.

In the face of the Netherworld’s level insinuation, all Xu Ping was doing was simply putting her thoughts on the surface, without leaving room for guesswork.

What ‘how many women’s infatuation have I harmed’? She was actually talking about herself.

She had been observing in the dark for a long time, only to find out that the person she liked was entangled with many other women, while she could only continue to be lonely in this sect that strictly guarded the relationship between men and women.

This feeling even made Xu Ping a little resentful…

However, she did not have any killing intent toward Liu Yuan. Otherwise, she would not have said ‘you two can not be together’ from the start. Instead, she would have immediately killed Liu Yuan, the root of all evil, right here.

The fact that she could say this meant that her first reaction when she saw Liu Yuan with her disciple was jealousy.

But she could not just say it openly.

This was because she was now the Grand Elder of the Mythical Flame Sect, Xu Ping, and not the ranger of the Far East Sea, Xu Shibing.

In this case, the leverage between the two was actually based on Xu Ping’s identity. She felt that Liu Yuan did not know her identity, so she could complain to Liu Yuan as much as she wanted using Xu Ping’s identity and scold him condescendingly.

Xu Ping’s identity was a barrier, but at the same time, it was also a protective umbrella for her dignity.

Therefore, Liu Yuan wanted to silently tear this veil away and expose the true colors of the Mythical Flame Sect Elder. He wanted to break her condescending attitude and even turn the tables on her, trampling her under his feet.

Once her identity was revealed, she could only be Xu Shibing in front of Liu Yuan, not Xu Ping.

Xu Ping could righteously denounce Liu Yuan, but Xu Shibing couldn’t.

This was because not only had Xu Shibing had an unforgettable and unregretful love for him, she also had Xu Ping’s identity behind her.

An Elder of the Mythical Flame Sect, the Senior Sister of the Sect Master, had actually violated the sect rules in private and fallen in love with someone!

Moreover, she could not let go!

However, if Liu Yuan did not expose her identity today, he was afraid that he would not have another chance in the future. On one hand, it was because of her dignity and face, and also because of the sect rules.

On the other hand, according to Liu Yuan’s rich experience, this woman must be thinking: ‘I can’t let him find out my identity’.

When Liu Yuan really did not find out, she would definitely be thinking: ‘He didn’t even find out my identity. He doesn’t love me anymore.’

Then, she would close herself and be unwilling to admit it.

Hmph, he had seen through all women.

In summary, at this moment, when Xu Ping was nervously retreating and tilting her head, feeling guilty and flustered, it was time for Liu Yuan to seize the upper hand and completely break through her mental defense.

He continued to maintain his imposing manner, took two steps forward, and said meaningfully, “Don’t you understand? It doesn’t matter. Even if you, Xu Ping, can’t understand, there will naturally be others who can.”

Xu Ping wanted to retreat again, but she felt that her apprentice would definitely notice something strange if this went on. Thinking of how other people would look at her if this matter was exposed, her chest throbbed. She tried her best to restrain herself and stood in the same place to face Liu Yuan. She pursed her lips and said with a straight face, “Who, who can understand… T-there’s no one else here! Don’t talk nonsense!”

Wei Feiyan saw that her Master was becoming more and more strange. From the cold rebuke at the beginning, she was now stammering and panicking, as if she was a different person.

From the moment Liu Yuan took off his disguise, he had become very strange. Now, he was even smiling with confidence.

The positions of the two people seemed to have reversed quickly in this short conversation.

However, Wei Feiyan had no idea what had happened and had become a bystander. She looked left and right in confusion and was on the verge of breaking down. What the hell were they talking about? Was it a code?

Right now, she could only vaguely guess that Liu Yuan and her Master might actually know each other. The rest was like a fog. She was completely at a loss. She silently moved to the side, wondering if she should go out…

Liu Yuan turned his head. “Feiyan, you can leave first. I have something to discuss with your Master.”

When Wei Feiyan heard this, she felt relieved. She vaguely felt that the current atmosphere had reached a point where a third person could not be tolerated, making her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles. Now, she could finally be free.

However, she was still a little worried that her Master would make a move. After hesitating for a moment, she saw the determination in Liu Yuan’s eyes. She could only believe him and escape in a hurry.

Xu Ping was stunned. Wouldn’t this make them alone? She was immediately anxious, but her disciple opened the door as fast as she could, and half of her foot was already outside.

She turned around to stop her, but before she could use her spiritual power, she suddenly felt a hand around her waist. The heat passed through the thin gauze and the tight cheongsam, and the force was firmly reflected on her skin.

The elder of Mythical Flame Sect had never experienced this before. Furthermore, when she realized that the person who had suddenly attacked him from behind was her lover whom she had yearned for day and night, he instantly shuddered. She could no longer maintain her cold expression and her legs went soft.

Liu Yuan caught the woman who had fallen onto him. He held her waist with one hand and firmly clamped her slender wrists with the other. He leaned his chin on her shoulder and whispered suggestively into her ear, “You lied to me so hard, Xu Ping, or should I say…”

“Xu, Shi, Bing.”

The three syllabi seemed to carry a thousand pounds of force as they struck the heart of the Mythical Flame Sect Elder.

Xu Ping’s mind trembled and she struggled hard. As far as her eyes could see, Wei Feiyan ran out but turned back and closed the door. Through the half-closed gap, her disciple’s eyes seemed to be staring at her, full of shock.

Bang! The door closed.

Xu Ping’s struggling stopped, and her eyes were dull. Thinking that her apprentice had seen her being held in the arms of the man from behind, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to die. She turned around and said with tears in her eyes, “Liu Junxuan, what do you want?!”

She was angry at herself. She was at the peak of the Form Synthesis stage, but she did not have any room to resist at all. She was toyed with by a Soul Formation stage cultivator, but she was greedy for this kind of intimate coercion.

Liu Yuan secretly thought that he had succeeded and smiled. “You finally stopped pretending?”

Xu Ping choked and stammered with a guilty conscience, “I’m not pretending, I’m Xu Ping…”

It was her fault for hiding her identity.

“Oh? Then who was the one who swore an undying love with me? So it wasn’t the wandering warrior Xu Shibing, but the Mythical Flame Sect’s Elder Xu Ping? As the Sect Master’s Senior Sister, instead of leading by example, you knowingly violate the rules. On the surface, you forbid the sect’s disciples from getting married and falling in love. You say it righteously and cleanly, but behind the scenes, you cheat on others. Don’t you feel both suffering and happy in your heart?”

Liu Yuan seemed to be smiling, but his words were like the whispers of a devil.
