Zhongzhou, Tianxian City.

"Little Shadiao, quickly save your dad!"

In a certain inn, Lin Jiang was being pressed down on the ground by Lin Die, pleading for help from Little Shadiao. Little Shadiao waited with a dazed look, took out a bag of sunflower seeds, started cracking them, what? He didn’t hear.

What a joke, finally there’s someone who can handle this jerk of an owner, he doesn’t even have time to watch.

Besides, he can’t even beat him, his sister is still here.

"Auntie Three, please stop, please stop, you’ll kill him if you keep hitting."

Lin Jiang saw that he couldn’t rely on Little Shadiao, so he quickly said to Lin Die.

"Third Sister, are you tired?"

Lin Die nodded, feeling a bit tricky. If she doesn’t use enough force, it won’t hurt. But if she uses too much force, she’s afraid she might accidentally kill someone. It’s difficult to find the right balance.

"Then Third Sister, take a break. Let me take over."

"Okay."

"Tenth Auntie, why? I was helping you."

Lin Jiang felt like crying. Lin Die hitting him was already bad enough, but now you’re hitting him too. What did he do? It’s not fair.

"Lin Cong, come here and strip off your master’s protective clothing. Leave nothing behind."

"Is that really possible?"

"Little Shadiao, if you dare, if you dare lay a hand on her, I’ll sell your wife."

Lin Jiang gave a fierce warning, young man, I advise you to show some self-discipline, otherwise your wife will be gone.

"Still being arrogant, I see you don’t know where you went wrong."

"I’m not wrong, what did I do wrong?"

"Not wrong? What do you take me and Third Sister for? Are we the kind of people who use others for our own gain?"

Lin Ying was furious, the education she and Lin Die received made it impossible for them to accept Lin Jiang’s behavior. For hundreds of years, the Lin family never used women for their own benefit, they earned everything on their own, even if it meant using a knife or a spear.

But this bastard, he actually used Lin Die’s reputation to lure Gu Hengbo, and they couldn’t bear it.

"People who only think of themselves will be punished by the heavens and the earth. In the cultivation world, how many people are willing to kill their loved ones for a bit of spirit stone or opportunity? Using a bit of human nature is nothing. Besides, we’re not asking Gu Hengbo to refine pills for free, we’ll give him the money he deserves."

"The Lin family never trades women for benefits."

"Third Auntie, have I used you for my own benefit? Am I just thinking about myself? And besides, because Gu Hengbo helped us once, do I have to marry him? There’s no such easy thing in the world. If I don’t like it, I can refuse, right?"

"You, what’s the difference between this and deceiving people?"

"There’s no difference, it’s just deceiving people. I have done plenty of deceiving people, and I have killed many too. Has the Lin family killed fewer people? If they’re not afraid of killing, what’s deceiving people to them?"

Lin Jiang replied with utmost sincerity, admitting that he is indeed a deceiver, but he didn’t deny it either.

Lin Die and Lin Ying looked at each other, realizing that they had been deceived by this person.

"Third Auntie, Tenth Auntie, listen to me. Don’t feel guilty inside. In this world, don’t bother with morals. How much is a moral worth? And how much is the opportunity in front of us worth? We should measure things with pros and cons, not with morals."

"You make sense, but a person still needs to have some principles. I don’t want to become the kind of person I dislike."

"Kindness and gentleness are for our own people, but towards enemies we must be ruthless. Unless Third Auntie considers Gu Hengbo as one of our own, otherwise, what principles are there to talk about? There shouldn’t be any principles when it comes to enemies."

"You…"

"Third Sister, stop talking. This child hasn’t learned well, and has a lot of twisted and evil ideas. We won’t be able to win with words, so let’s just fight directly."

"Lin Ying is right," said Lin Die.

Lin Die nodded. She is not good at speaking logically, so the only option is to fight.

"Don’t fight. I’m serious. If you really don’t want to, I’ll reject it myself. If you hit me again, I’ll get angry. I’m serious."

Lin Jiang is also angry. He didn’t get any benefits and only cared about the two of them. In the end, he became a nobody. Lin Jiang is very angry, and even his own sisters make him angry.

"Third Sister, what should we do?"

Lin Ying also stopped fighting. She’s several hundred years old, so she should show some respect.

"Lin Ying, can you find a reliable Alchemist at Rank 7?"

"Can’t find anyone trustworthy."

Lin Ying said that you can find it at the seventh-level Alchemist market, but it may not be reliable, and it is extremely expensive.

"So you only have two choices, first, go home and ask dad for help, dad will definitely help, second, accept this matter."

"I’ll go home and ask dad."

Lin Ying said directly, although she and Lin Batian are not on good terms now, she doesn’t want Lin Die to suffer.

"But I hope you accept this matter."

"Third Sister, why?"

"Actually, we are not fighting with dad, we are just trying to become independent from his protection. We are four or five hundred years old, we can’t rely on dad for everything, we need to grow up."

"Third Sister, it’s not necessary, you don’t even like Gu Hengbo."

"Indeed, I don’t like him, but Lin Wu is right. It’s not just because he helped me once that I have to marry him. I acknowledge this debt of gratitude, and I will repay him in the future. I will tell him in advance, if he doesn’t want it, then let it be."

Lin Die said she wasn’t foolish enough to marry Gu Hengbo because of this matter, it’s just a debt of gratitude, and she would handle it later.

"Then listen to Third Sister, I won’t bow down to father either. I, Lin Ying, can handle things on my own."

"Then it’s decided like this."

"Third Sister, I will repay this favor."

Lin Ying said that this was a favor she owed, and she would repay it herself.

"Don’t worry about that, Lin Wu, stand up."

"Yes."

"Go and invite Gu Hengbo, I want to have a talk with him."

Lin Die said, Lin Jiang sighed and felt speechless. They all lived complicated lives, just like Lin Die and Lin Ying. They truly resembled their father.

·······

"Dear Taoist friend, I have already explained everything."

Inside the inn, Lin Die confronted Gu Hengbo. She made it clear that she had no interest in romantic relationships and only desired to pursue the path of spirituality. If Gu Hengbo is willing to help her, she would owe him a favor and would be willing to go through great lengths in the future. If he’s not willing, it doesn’t matter.

"Fairy Long, there’s no need to reject me from afar. I truly adore you, fairy."

"Our pursuits and paths are different. There’s no need to say more about this."

"Doesn’t Gou have any chance at all?"

"There are many good women in the world, it’s just that I’m not fortunate enough."

"Sigh."

Gu Hengbo felt a strong sense of heartache. It was the first time he felt this way towards a woman. It’s a premature love that is about to end before it even begins.

"Since that’s the case, then I’ll leave first."

"No, Fairy Long, wait a moment, I haven’t refused yet."

"Let me explain myself clearly."

"I know, but I’m willing to help with this favor."

"Taoist friend, there’s no need for that."

"I truly mean it. Long Wu is right, we should be sincere in our actions. I don’t expect the fairy to devote herself to me over a small favor. I’m willing to be friends with the fairy."

"Alright, then I vow here to owe a favor to taoist friend. If there comes a time when I have a request, even if it requires going through fire and water, I will agree to it."

Lin Die said very seriously. She was someone who valued trust and always followed through on her words.

"No need for that, it’s just a small favor."

"I let my younger sister come in."

Lin Die nodded, no longer saying much. She didn’t know how to continue the conversation, to avoid embarrassment.

Lin Ying quickly came in and talked to Gu Hengbo about alchemy.

"Seven Star Sky Awakening Pill, this medicine is very ancient, and the ingredients are extremely difficult to find. Mainstream alchemists don’t make it anymore."

"Yes, that’s why we need to ask our Taoist friend for help."

"It’s okay, you’re lucky. My master made this pill more than a hundred years ago. I’ll take care of it."

"Then, please ask your Taoist friend to introduce your esteemed teacher. I’m willing to pay whatever price for the pill."

Lin Ying replied, owing a debt of gratitude, but still needing to give what should be given.

Gu Hengbo didn’t say anything about this. If he were making it himself, he definitely couldn’t charge money. But when his master takes action, what should be given still needs to be given.

Gu Hengbo agreed and they made plans. Three days later, Lin Ying went to Danxia Sect and Gu Hengbo would introduce her to his master for alchemy practice.

"Gu Laoliu, look, I wasn’t wrong, women are always insecure. My Third Auntie is very cautious, you need to try harder."

Seeing Gu Hengbo about to leave, Lin Jiang hurriedly caught up with him and said.

"Long Wu, do I still have a chance?"

"No way, you gave up after one rejection. Do you really like my Third Auntie?"

"Of course I do, it’s just…"

"Just what, Gu Laoliu? If women were easily won over, then what sets my Third Auntie apart from other ordinary women?"

"You’re not tricking me, right?"

"Of course not, why would I do such a thing? My principle in life is sincerity. You have to trust me, I have experience in this matter. Women can’t withstand too much attention. If you spoil them too many times, they’ll get used to it and become dependent on you."

"You’re right, it’s my fault. I almost gave up just now."

"Keep going, work hard."

Lin Jiang cheered Gu Hengbo on. Come on, bro, let’s strive to be good followers. Stay loyal till the end (serious face).
