After My Favorability Level Is Up to the Top

Chapter 248 - Ling Zhen's Loneliness Had Fallen

Xiahou Cenyi met Guo Fan's gaze without flinching. She appeared quite natural, rubbing her chin and smiling at him, her eyes sparkling as if she was eagerly anticipating Song Na and Guo Fan's reactions.

Guo Fan's expression shifted from confusion to something peculiar. Although he knew she had a penchant for playing pranks, saying something like that so casually seemed like she had a habit of luring and selling innocent young girls.

He wasn't sure if the Supreme Elder had truly engaged in such activities after living for so long.

For Xiahou Cenyi, who often found things unamusing, the consequences, the disapproving looks of others, or the process itself didn't matter. Her own amusement was all that counted.

Guo Fan felt a sense of helplessness. Before the situation could escalate, he quickly interjected, “My senior sister is joking. This isn't a major secret. It's just not the right time to make it public. You'll only need to swear on your heart demon, and everything will be fine.”

The binding power of a heart demon oath is slightly less than that of a heavenly tribulation oath, but for ordinary cultivators, it's still a very serious vow.

The heart demon created by the Heart Demon Oath can vary in severity, depending on the karma in one's heart. There might be a delay in its onset, while the Heavenly Tribulation Oath brings a fixed level of tribulation. If unfulfilled, it could be fatal. Hence, the latter is considered heavier.

He found the girl's appearance delightful and pleasing to the eye, but he had no intention of attracting more unwanted attention… The Golden Orchid Guards of the City Lord Mansion were renowned, and one could learn a lot from them. Both parties benefitted, making it a carefree arrangement.

It seemed like this person was pretending to be weak intentionally, perhaps to encourage the Supreme Elder to let loose and be more daring. How else could he fully enjoy the happiness of being united?

However, Guo Fan was unwilling to entangle himself in any new romantic entanglements. This wasn't just his problem; it would also be a burden for the young lady.

Guo Fan had maintained a certain distance from Hee Mengyao, who was still pretending to be a supreme elder. He didn't want any more complications, but little did he know this woman belonged to the Devil Clan. Perhaps because of his words, she suddenly became interested in him.

It was impossible to guard against. Truly impossible.

He almost lost his life…

Guo Fan cursed internally. On the other side, Song Zhen timidly raised her head, still clutching it with her hands, and cautiously asked, “Re-really?”

Xiahou suddenly interrupted, “It's fake. He lied to you.”

Song Zhen widened her eyes in disbelief, looking at Guo Fan. She seemed unable to accept that he was lying. Guo Fan, caught off guard by Elder Xiahou's meddling, didn't know whether to laugh or cry. “Why would I lie to you now? Do you really want me to ruin your innocence?”

Xiahou Cenyi grinned mischievously. “Show your true colors. You tricked the little girl into lowering her guard, then tampered with the heart demon oath. Next, you threatened to devour this tender little flower whole. Junior brother, isn't this your favorite tactic? It's a trick you're quite familiar with, Senior Sister. I understand.”

Show my true colors? What nonsense are you spouting!?

Guo Fan finally couldn't help but glare at the Supreme Elder. If he weren't bound and his cultivation wasn't so low, he would have already bent the Supreme Elder over his knee and given her a few spanks as punishment.

Who would have expected Xiahou Cenyi to suddenly act as though she were frightened by his glare? She sighed and “obediently” walked over, saying pitifully, “Senior sister was wrong. I shouldn't have said that. Please don't be mad…”

She looked down as if about to cry.

“Back then, you forced senior sister into this. But now, senior sister is willing to give you anything.”

I… Holy crap! I'm starting to believe it myself!

Heaven help me, I'm not playing some adult-rated game, but an all-ages socially harmonious online game!

Guo Fan was stunned. Even Song Na frowned upon hearing this. She looked at her lover, who had just been exposed, seemingly surprised that he had such a “dark past.”

Guo Fan quickly stepped forward to stop her. He took her hand, but the Supreme Elder immediately closed her eyes, raised her pale neck, and trembled slightly, as if she were terrified of him and entirely submissive.

At first glance, it looked like Guo Fan was being anxious and ruthless.

Song Zhen stared at him in astonishment, completely shocked.

How could it be like this? What she had initially thought was a simple relationship turned out to be something entirely different. Instead, it was the enigmatic Supreme Elder of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, whose cultivation reached the heavens. His junior brother used underhanded means to claim his body, and over time, they developed feelings for each other. Love and hate intertwined, and it all seemed so petty in the face of Xia Shui!

Then… what about Eldest Senior Sister?

Could it be that the cold, noble, and ethereal Eldest Senior Sister was also…

Song Zhen's deep respect for Eldest Senior Sister made her suppress her thoughts, but the idea kept lingering in her mind.

Song Zhen was already extremely nervous, and with her heart racing wildly, she became increasingly flustered. Her mind was filled with chaotic thoughts, and she finally began to worry about herself being “harmed.”

What should I do now? He said he wanted to destroy my innocence. What should I do?

The girl's face turned crimson—Should I submit or resist? If I comply, wouldn't that be too forward? But if I resist, how could I possibly stand up to these three powerful experts in front of me?

Song Na noticed the smile on Xiahou's face and immediately snapped out of it. Looking at the chaotic scene before her, along with the intensifying battle and shouting outside, she realized there wasn't enough time to swear the Heart Demon Oath now. She couldn't help but look at Guo Fan and sigh.

“It's too late… Just give in to him.”

The woman's cold voice echoed. Before Guo Fan could react, he saw a flash of sword light, followed by a cry of surprise. In an instant, a shy and beautiful face appeared in his arms.

Song Zhen was so frightened by the sword light that she could only sigh inwardly.

The girl was dazed, and her mind was in a haze. She instinctively clung to him.

Guo Fan was somewhat dumbfounded by the situation. However, he was the one whose cultivation base had been sealed. Even though Song Zhen was young, she was still the one who had sealed her cultivation base. Guo Fan was the one being forced into this. However, the girl's stern tone of “risking her life for justice” left people unsure whether to laugh or cry.

Guo Fan brushed the girl's hair aside and looked at the instigator. The Supreme Elder grinned and said, “This girl is half-human, half-mermaid. She would make an excellent furnace to help you regain your strength. Plus, her bloodline isn't ordinary.”

A half-human, half-mermaid?!

Guo Fan's pupils contracted as he recalled a mission he had heard of before. But before he could think it through, the girl in his arms finally released him, her face flushed.
