"Hey, wait! I’m coming too!"
Li Luo suddenly called out to stop Ye Wangchuan, who was about to leave.
Ye Wangchuan turned his head in confusion and spoke.
"Didn’t you want to stay in the wooden cabin?"
"I’ve changed my mind! I want to stay in the Longevity Palace now! Is that not allowed? Ye Wangchuan, you’re so greedy for money, it’ll be the death of you!"
Li Luo vented her frustration, then glanced at her system space.
Not a single pill was left, and her villainous emotional value was only at 20 points.
Three cultivation pills or one Foundation Building Pill required 90 villainous emotional points.
In other words, she still needed to squeeze 70 more villainous emotional points out of Ye Wangchuan.
After calculating, Li Luo sneered at Ye Wangchuan.
"After all, you’ve eaten so many of my pills. Without me, you probably wouldn’t even be able to cultivate~"
"Always asking me for pills, you little minnow~ So useless~ What am I going to do with you~"
[Villainous Emotional Value +50]
[Villainous Emotional Value +50]
[Current Remaining: 120 points]
Seeing the villainous emotional value credited, Li Luo spent 90 points to buy three cultivation pills. She pretended to rummage through her pocket and handed them to Ye Wangchuan.
"Here, I’ll reluctantly give you a few, minnow~"

[Current Remaining: 70 points]
"Fine."
Ye Wangchuan nodded indifferently on the surface, casually accepting the pills as if Li Luo’s taunts meant nothing to him.
However, deep down, he was starting to feel a bit puzzled.
"Li Luo is usually quite normal. Why does she always have to mock me whenever she gives me pills? Like a little brat."
"Is her system forcing her to mock me? Or is she just naturally annoying?"
Ye Wangchuan pondered this as he entered the Longevity Palace.
Inside the Longevity Palace,
It was actually just a small cluster of buildings.
A few courtyards, a few bedrooms, and a few gardens.
Nothing particularly luxurious.
Ye Wangchuan casually picked a bedroom near the main entrance, had the servants clean it up, and then went in to sleep.
By now, the sky was dark, and Fang Que had also found a room to sleep in.
There was no point in staying up any longer…
Ye Wangchuan closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Ah, what a peaceful and uneventful day.
Let it just pass like this.
……
……
In the dead of night.
Creak~
Li Luo quietly pushed open Ye Wangchuan’s window and climbed in.
By the moonlight, Li Luo looked around.
Soon, she found Ye Wangchuan sleeping soundly on the bed.
"Hehe~ Sleeping so deeply. If I scare him awake, I’ll definitely get a lot of emotional points!"
"Let’s see if I can’t squeeze out the rent for the past few months!"
Li Luo confidently placed her hands on her hips, filled with joy.
Then she climbed onto the bed, reached out her small hand, and patted Ye Wangchuan’s shoulder.
"Ye Wangchuan! Give me back my life…!"
Before Li Luo could finish her sentence,
the moment she touched Ye Wangchuan’s shoulder.
"!!!"
[Villainous Emotional Value +200]
[Villainous Emotional Value +200]
[Current Remaining: 470 points]
Ye Wangchuan jolted awake, his eyes still heavy with sleep.
Upon hearing the words "Give me back my life,"
it was almost an instinctive reaction. He immediately grabbed Li Luo by the collar and pinned her down on the bed.
He used so much force that he accidentally smashed one of the bed’s wooden pillars, causing a loud crash.
He then pulled out a stack of talismans from his spatial ring, cursing under his breath.
"Whose wild ghost is this? I’ll blast you with talismans… Li Luo?"
Only then did he realize the person in front of him was Li Luo.
"How did you get in? What are you doing here?"
Seeing it was Li Luo and not some vengeful spirit, Ye Wangchuan quickly calmed down and resumed his usual composed expression.
He first glanced at the door, confirming he had barred it with a wooden pillar, then looked around the room.
Soon, he noticed a small window he had forgotten to lock.
After all, the window was so small that only someone as petite as Fang Que or Li Luo could squeeze through, so he hadn’t paid much attention to it earlier.
"Ah… haha. I couldn’t sleep, so I thought I’d drag you out for a stroll."
Li Luo immediately raised her hands in surrender.
Ye Wangchuan’s cultivation was at the mid-first level, while hers hadn’t even reached the first level.
If she taunted him now, she’d probably end up getting beaten up by Ye Wangchuan!
She’d already earned 400 points. Time to quit while she was ahead!
Just as Ye Wangchuan was about to ask why Li Luo didn’t knock and instead sneaked in through the window,
"Hop~"
"Ye Wangchuan, what’s with all the noise…"
Fang Que tiptoed up and climbed onto the small windowsill.
As soon as she poked her head in, she saw Ye Wangchuan pinning Li Luo down on the bed.
Ye Wangchuan: "…"
Li Luo: "…"
Fang Que: "Can I keep watching?"
Ye Wangchuan: "Sure."
Li Luo: "You can’t just watch something like this!! Uh… no, it’s a misunderstanding!!!"
……
After some time explaining, Li Luo finally managed to clarify that she had just come to take Ye Wangchuan out for a stroll.
"Yawn~"
Fang Que let out a yawn, her expression blank.
"So it’s just something this trivial. You two go ahead, I’m going back to sleep."
With that, Fang Que climbed back out the window and returned to her room.
By now, Ye Wangchuan was also feeling a bit tired and wasn’t really in the mood to go out with Li Luo.
After thinking for a moment, he spoke.
"One Foundation Building Pill."
"Are you made of gold or silver? That’s so expensive for one night?"
Li Luo shot Ye Wangchuan a look of disbelief.
Then she casually took out a Foundation Building Pill and tossed it to him.
"Let’s go, stroll!"
Li Luo said as she walked out.
She gave Ye Wangchuan the Foundation Building Pill not because she had too much villainous emotional value and was feeling generous.
But because she believed that during their stroll, she could easily earn back the emotional points by casually taunting him a few times.
Her current villainous emotional value was still at 380 points.
Ye Wangchuan pocketed the Foundation Building Pill, yawned, and followed Li Luo out.
The two first arrived at a pavilion.
The pavilion was situated above a lake.
The lake was home to some fish, and the water was flowing, making it clear and clean.
Inside the pavilion was a stone table with a chessboard engraved on it.
The chess pieces were neatly arranged on the board.
Li Luo couldn’t help but wonder how the Third Elder had managed to transport something like this intact.
"Ye Wangchuan, do you know how to play chess?"
"I do."
"Let’s play."
Li Luo sat down on the stone stool, grinning inwardly.
If she could beat Ye Wangchuan at chess, she was sure to earn some villainous emotional points!
"Sure, but just playing chess is boring. How about this: the loser gives the winner one cultivation pill. What do you think?"
Ye Wangchuan was still thinking about how to squeeze more out of her.
Li Luo shot him a look of exasperation.
"Here you go again, you’re so obsessed with my pills."
"Are you scared?"
"I’m not scared! Let’s do it!"
Li Luo muttered, making the first move.
She was, after all, a modern person, and she had some knowledge of chess strategies.
Ye Wangchuan, being an ancient cultivator, couldn’t possibly compare to the condensed wisdom of two thousand years of modern chess!
