[Ding!]
[A brilliant move! The Saint's proactive approach has left the Astrology Pavilion Elder's heart in disarray!]
[Reward: 50 Spirit Stones]
Shen Jiuyi: "!!!"
Ever since they finished dinner and started watching the movie,
Shen Jiuyi felt her heartbeat gradually accelerating, completely beyond her control.
The composed expression on her face was entirely feigned.
After all,
she had been wearing a poker face for years.
Pretending wasn't that difficult for her.
Her great-grandmother had once said that she needed to keep her heart as calm as still water to safely navigate the turbulent first half of her life and avoid falling into her destined tribulation.
Shen Jiuyi had always kept her great-grandmother's words in mind.
Now,
not only had the tribulation her great-grandmother spoke of come to pass,
but even though Shen Jiuyi wanted to resist, she couldn't escape the interference of her dreams.
She chose to use a direct, extreme method to resolve her own confusion.
Shen Jiuyi didn't know if her choice was right...
She only knew that
right now, she felt more flustered than anything, not as resistant as she had imagined.
Lin Yu was right...
Her purpose for coming here tonight was clear.
So why keep deliberately maintaining distance, waiting for Lin Yu to "call the shots"?
Lin Yu was willing to be the "tool" to help her solve her problem.
Perhaps she should be a bit more proactive herself, to make what was about to happen less awkward.
In the movies...
that's how it's always done, right?
It was true that Shen Jiuyi liked zombie movies.
But that didn't mean she only watched one genre.
In a sense,
her range of viewing exceeded even the King of Dirty Jokes!
She was only slightly less experienced than the film-savvy Maomao.
Shen Jiuyi stood up, her expression shifting as she looked over at Lin Yu.
Lin Yu: "???"
Noticing Shen Jiuyi's gaze, Lin Yu's heart genuinely skipped a beat.
Wasn't this just about sitting closer to watch the movie?
What did this resolute look in her eyes mean?
It was as if she had made some firm decision.
Was something as simple as closing the distance something that required such a huge resolve in Shen Jiuyi's mind?
Well, as long as the outcome was good.
Lin Yu made room on the side closer to the wall.
His meaning was clear.
He wanted Shen Jiuyi to sit on the side near the headboard, while he would sit a bit closer to the foot of the bed.
Unexpectedly,
after walking over, Shen Jiuyi directly took off her slippers and climbed onto the other side of the bed.
Leaning against the headboard, using a pillow for back support, she half-reclined.
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Just a moment ago, she was unbearably reserved, and now she's completely at ease?
Just how much resolve did that take?!
Naturally, Lin Yu didn't know that Shen Jiuyi had just made a major decision in her heart.
Since things were developing smoothly, he was happy to see it.
What was even more interesting was that Shen Jiuyi, after getting settled, actually turned the question back on Lin Yu:
"This is the comfortable way to watch, right? No need to sit down there."
Lin Yu: "???"
Alright, alright.
This move genuinely caught Lin Yu off guard.
Putting on a brave face, huh?
Fine!
Let's see if Shen Jiuyi had truly figured things out and was planning to completely let her guard down.
Lin Yu went with the flow and leaned against the other side as well, even opening the nearby summer quilt and draping it over both of their legs.
If this were before,
such an intimate gesture would undoubtedly have made Shen Jiuyi uncomfortable.
Whether from her facial reaction or her body language, some signs would have been visible.
But this time...
Shen Jiuyi showed no reaction at all?
As if what Lin Yu had done was the most ordinary little thing.
Oh ho?
Lin Yu was genuinely surprised.
He hadn't expected Shen Jiuyi to truly adopt a new attitude.
How did she manage it?
To suddenly understand such a significant principle in such a short time!
It seemed that even if Lin Yu proposed something even harder to accept now, Shen Jiuyi would no longer feel any aversion.
"This movie is a bit scary to watch, isn't it?"
"How about... we change to a different movie?"
Lin Yu asked tentatively.
Changing the atmosphere first was the way to achieve his goal, step by step.
Watching a zombie film...
really didn't help set the mood!
What if, in the heat of the moment, he glanced over...
and saw a bald zombie...
How utterly unlucky would that be?
What's the difference between that and watching that and accidentally seeing your bald boss at the wrong moment?
To avoid awkward situations, prevention was naturally best.
Anyway, judging by Shen Jiuyi's current state, as long as Lin Yu's conditions weren't too excessive, they were worth a try.
Just as Lin Yu had anticipated.
Shen Jiuyi said straightforwardly:
"No problem, you can watch whatever you like."
"If you want to set the mood, putting on an adult film is fine too."
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Huh?
What on earth happened in that moment just now?
What's going on?
Such a liberation of his natural instincts genuinely left Lin Yu somewhat unprepared.
It wasn't that Lin Yu didn't want to respond, he was just a bit stunned and didn't know how to continue the conversation.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
