Chapter 121: Husband, Husband, Husband!

Something is wrong!

The script is also very wrong.

Gu Jiangming and this mysterious junior sister of his have had a total of two encounters.

During the first reincarnation encounter, which was the timeline from ten thousand years ago, the other party's attitude toward him was terrible, but this time, it was as if she were a completely different person; the contrast in this change of attitude was truly too great.

This left even Gu Jiangming feeling somewhat bewildered.

Did something go wrong somewhere?

Or is it that his Charm in this lifetime is too high?

He directly began to flip through his life experiences from this reincarnation, analyzing them starting from the earliest timeline.

【In this lifetime, you are a 'Heavenly Fiend Lone Star', a fate plagued by misfortune.】

【And because you are in a chaotic era ruled by demon beasts, the Human Race is restless; from the time you could remember, you have been drifting and displaced in troubled times.】

【You can only vaguely remember the memory of your parents separating from you when you were 7 years old.】

【If you cultivate, there is still a chance to survive; if you do not cultivate, then death is certain.】

【The opposite sex with whom you first interact will, according to the depth of their affection for you, gain a significant amount of your cultivation, and may even improve their natural talent and change their destiny because of it.】

【Time is becoming increasingly tight; you feel that you are about to become their human cauldron.】

【At age 8, you were snatched away by a dog demon and became its rations, but relying on your quick-wittedness, you snuck away while it was out.】

【Your aptitude is decent, so you were snatched away by them, and eventually sold at a cheap price in an unknown black market to a sect named 'Hua Yu Sect'.】

【Therefore, if you want to escape the 'Hua Yu Sect', you can only find a way yourself.】

【At age 14, your cultivation speed slowed down; you told the Sect Master of Hua Yu Sect that you were about to break through to the Seventh Layer of the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique', but were stuck in a bottleneck and struggling to break through, which bought you enough time.】

【Forced into a dilemma, you had no choice but to cultivate this technique named—'Yangji Fanyin Technique'.】

【From then on, you began to live all by yourself.】

【However, you discovered a secret in the process of cultivating the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique'; this technique is actually not a cauldron technique at all. After reaching this conclusion while cultivating, it somewhat overturned your understanding.】

【You cultivated the true 'Yangji Fanyin Technique'.】

【At age 13, due to your innate talent in the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique', you were regarded as a treasure by the Hua Yu Sect, and your every word, action, and movement were monitored by others.】

【The 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' has a total of nine cultivation realms; each layer will increase your physical strength and physical Charm, and when you cultivate to the full level, that is when you will provide feedback to the 'Hua Yu Sect'.】

【Inside the cave, you found a secret passage, and after entering, you unexpectedly discovered a skeleton; inside it, you obtained the true 'Yangji Fanyin Technique'.】

【You cultivated the original version of the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' day and night, and from it, you realized the divine ability 'Yin-Born Yang-Peace', allowing you to freely transform into two different forms, Yin and Yang, to face enemies.】

【The 'Hua Yu Sect' only treated them as tools for cultivation, but the people of Hua Yu Sect covered up their actions very well, and thus captured the 'loyalty' of these poor people.】

【But you are clever and sharp, seeing that the 'Hua Yu Sect's' kindness to these poor people was nothing more than using them; from the moment they began cultivating the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique', their final outcome was doomed.】

【At the same time, you saw the purpose of these two sets of techniques of the 'Hua Yu Sect'; it was never to forcibly absorb the fruits of others' cultivation to boost oneself, but should be mutual dedication, mutual achievement, and mutually nourishing each other's deficiencies.】

【Because the higher the cultivation realm of the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique', the greater the help you, as a cauldron, provide to the people of Hua Yu Sect.】

【But having just escaped the wolf's den, you entered a tiger's lair; you finally found a group of passersby who were also of the Human Race, thinking you could be saved, but you didn't expect to run into evil cult villains.】

【You realized that you had no way to unite with other male disciples who were also cauldrons to escape the 'Hua Yu Sect', and even the act of inciting them to rebel might be dangerous.】

【Only you know this secret.】

【In the situation where you open your mouth to ask for help, there will be a small probability of obtaining the consent of the opposite sex.】

【And you will also obtain a brand-new Golden Word—Many Children Many Blessings.】

【It turns out the Hua Yu Sect was not originally called Hua Yu Sect, but should have been called Yanghe Gate; the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' and the 'Yinji Fanyang Technique' were also not one for a cauldron and one for an Honored Lord's master-servant cultivation method, but were actually more of a method of Yin and Yang harmony, accompanying and living together, living and dying together.】

【Because after the Sixth Layer of cultivation, you discovered that the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' actually has mutual nourishment, and there are traces of the principle of Yin and Yang mutually assisting each other to follow.】

【Every layer of your cultivation will cause your Charm to be enhanced.】

【This year, you resolutely decided to escape the Hua Yu Sect, swearing to die rather than be humiliated by these demonesses; however, late one night, the Hua Yu Sect encountered an inexplicable retaliation, and you hid in a cave behind the mountain, waiting for the end of this upheaval in an unknown secret passage.】

【The 'Hua Yu Sect' diligently taught you cultivation methods, but you are naturally intelligent and realized that the method you were cultivating was an evil technique that used yourself as a cauldron; the moment it was successfully cultivated was the day of your death.】

【At age 12, your 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' broke through to the Sixth Layer; you had become an outstanding talent among the cauldrons, and the people of Hua Yu Sect were drooling over you, but the Hua Yu Sect Master believed your potential still had a ceiling, and rather than ruining you as a cauldron at the Sixth Layer, it was better to wait until you cultivated to the Seventh Layer.】

【However... you were at your wit's end.】

【You learned a secret of the Hua Yu Sect.】

【Fortunately, there was a glimmer of hope; you discovered a hidden cave on the stone wall behind the Hua Yu Sect.】

【At age 10, the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' had already been cultivated to the Fifth Layer; your Charm in every gesture had already reached the appearance of an Immortal Aspect.】

【At age 11, the 'Hua Yu Sect' meticulously took care of the daily lives of you cauldrons; you were surprised to find that those taken as cauldrons were mostly people with pitiful backgrounds, and if not for the appearance of the 'Hua Yu Sect', most of them would have been hungry, or even reduced to rations for demon beasts, so they believed what the 'Hua Yu Sect' said implicitly.】

【And you also did not like these bewitching women of the Hua Yu Sect from the bottom of your heart, because you had long ago sensed that to these female disciples, you were nothing more than a tool to help them cultivate; the 'liking' in their mouths was mostly just acting.】

【It was just that later, a change occurred in the sect; the 'Yangji Fanyin Technique' was artificially tampered with, causing its efficacy to be greatly reduced, and it also became a method to boost the cultivation of the 'Yinji Fanyang Technique'.】

【Through your indirect inquiries, you learned that the technique cultivated by the female disciples of Hua Yu Sect was named—'Yinji Fanyang Technique'; you thought about it carefully and felt more and more that this was a dual cultivation and dual union technique, rather than one-sided forceful seizure, only you did not know why the Hua Yu Sect practiced the wrong path.】

【You deliberately pretended to be dull-witted, wanting to slow down your cultivation speed and slowly find a way to escape, but the cultivation was too slow, you were seen through on the spot, and in the end, you could only honestly go and cultivate.】

【The other party's heart wanted a better cauldron, so naturally, she agreed to this matter.】

【You could not leave the Hua Yu Sect in the slightest, but you could move freely within the Hua Yu Sect.】

【When you came out again, the Hua Yu Sect had already been destroyed.】

【You collected the bodies for several disciples you knew; even though you knew in your heart that some were just acting, you hadn't reached the final step of tearing off the mask, so you still accepted the kindness of others.】

【Moreover, these people were all dead; collecting the bodies was a small effort, and also human nature.】

【You left the Hua Yu Sect.】

And in this lifetime, Gu Jiangming's character card was clearly a bit different.

It was entirely focused on the appearance of Charm.

Looking to the left, he had an immortal air but also a bit of awe-inspiring evil; looking to the right, he was as handsome as a jade tree, his face like polished jade, yet he carried a bit of a young man's unruliness.

Even Gu Jiangming himself, looking at this character card, could hardly recognize it.

This "Yangji Fanyin Technique" is too sinister.

If this continues, I fear that once one meets Jiangming, one's life is ruined.

What kind of succubus cultivation method is this?

Gu Jiangming looked closely and saw that this technique seemed to have the specific effect of nourishing the skin; during the cultivation process itself, relying on the cleansing of Spirit Qi, it would allow the practitioner's flaws to be improved, making their skin quality several times better than that of an ordinary person.

The "Yangji Fanyin Technique" just happens to specialize in this aspect.

Now that Gu Jiangming has obtained the true "Yangji Fanyin Technique," it is completely dumping all points into the Charm stat, with not a single point put into anything else.

It is very different from the previous Reincarnation Simulation, where everything was put into Willpower.

【Over these few years, you wandered everywhere and discovered that most mortals were living in dire straits, or even being specifically raised by demonic beasts to become rations for some monsters.】

【But there were also some monsters who could not bear it and sheltered some pitiful mortals; these monsters who sheltered mortals were undoubtedly supported by the Human Race and regarded as "deities."】

【The place where you were located was even more of a disaster area for demonic beasts.】

【After seeing the evil deeds of the demonic beasts, although you were cultivating the "Yangji Fanyin Technique," which is slightly inferior in combat, the memories flooding your mind gave you an immense amount of combat experience.】

【While fleeing in exile, you saved many displaced people, and your performance won the favor of the Shangyi Sect.】

【With nowhere else to go, you decided to join the Shangyi Sect.】

【The Shangyi Sect is a righteous minor sect in Cangzhou; although its scale is not large, it is extremely famous locally, and the Master of the Shangyi Sect is named Yue Jin.】

【There are not many rules within the sect; it only teaches its members that in such chaotic times, one should help as many people as one can, and if one can keep a person alive, then keep them alive.】

【You met many members of the Shangyi Sect here; most of them were rogue cultivators or even mortals with some aptitude that Yue Jin had taken in along the way as Master.】

【You gradually realized that compared to sects with a heritage like the Hua Yu Sect, the Shangyi Sect was completely a makeshift operation, possessing almost no decent heritage at all.】

【The cultivation methods within the Shangyi Sect were merely contributions from these various rogue cultivators huddling together for warmth; the so-called insights were also just things they had experienced over the years.】

【But precisely because it was a sect with nothing, it gave you a long-lost sense of belonging.】

【Here, there were no schemes, nor was there any talk of mutual exploitation; everyone brought out their own meager skills, helping one another to survive the current crisis of the Human Race, which could be considered as being in the same boat.】

【At age 17, a pitiful little girl came to the sect; her name was Liu Moran. Her family had fallen on hard times, and after some incidents occurred, she was saved by Master Yue Jin, who only sighed after returning.】

【"In a world like this, it is not just demons that are dangerous, but also some damned people," Yue Jin sighed with his hands behind his back. "This is the daughter of an old friend of mine; you all should take good care of her."】

【You deeply agreed with Yue Jin's words; having experienced the affairs of the Hua Yu Sect, you realized that here, cultivation level was truly too important, and in order to survive, many people had already lost the qualifications to be human.】

【As long as one can become stronger, anything can be put aside; as long as one can survive, anything can be discarded—this seems to be a view accepted by many people now.】

【Yue Jin entrusted you to look after this newly initiated junior sister, because in this Shangyi Sect, you were the youngest, and it was not very appropriate for others to take care of such a young girl.】

【Facing this 14-year-old girl, you tried your best to fulfill the role of an older brother, but she was as cold as frost and felt nothing toward the entire Shangyi Sect.】

【At age 18, Master Yue Jin went out to seek some food for the entire Shangyi Sect; the "Yangji Fanyin Technique" you practiced was, after all, an auxiliary technique, and your actual combat power was not apparent, so in a place like this, you could not help much.】

【Due to the fact that those monsters who had already gained intelligence specifically protected them, human cultivators found it difficult to hunt demonic beasts that could provide meat; even ordinary wild animals were under the heavy protection of the monsters and were regarded by them as private property.】

【In the entire Shangyi Sect, there were only five or six domestic chickens and three white pigs being raised; in order to supplement the children's nutrition, the eggs produced were mostly reserved for the younger members of the sect to eat.】

【Yue Jin returned with the carcass of a wild boar, and the Shangyi Sect finally ate meat for the first time in a long while; you felt compassion for Liu Moran, and as fellow orphans who had wandered the streets without parents, you took good care of her.】

【When you were 19, Yue Jin imparted what he had learned to several young disciples of the Shangyi Sect; his technique was extremely crude, counting as some experience gained from being beaten, and relying on these experiences, the hodgepodge technique Yue Jin created was named by him as "Hundred Refinements to Immortality."】

【You obtained the cultivation method of "Hundred Refinements to Immortality."】

【At age 20, Yue Jin brought back a few more children; these people became new disciples of the Shangyi Sect, but that very night, a female disciple said that her family heirloom jade pendant had been stolen.】

【Yue Jin was quite furious and attached great importance to this matter, and a boy who had joined at the same time pointed at Liu Moran, saying he saw a girl about her age take this family heirloom jade pendant.】

【But Liu Moran was the only female disciple in the entire Shangyi Sect, which is why you, being of the same age, were the one to look after her, rather than letting other older Shangyi Sect members do so.】

【Once these words were spoken, it was undoubtedly saying that the theft of the jade pendant was the work of Liu Moran.】

【Liu Moran was out of place in the Shangyi Sect and had no popularity, but she was naturally arrogant; Yue Jin knew her background and did not believe she would do such a thing.】

【He scolded these newly initiated disciples, which instead aroused their resentment.】

【You also believed that Liu Moran could not have done such a thing.】

【Consequently, with Yue Jin stepping in, the matter could only be dropped, but most of these newly initiated disciples believed that she was the one who stole the jade pendant.】

【You saw Liu Moran wiping away tears alone in another place, but every time she appeared in front of you, she had an indifferent look, as if she were saying, "So I did it, what can you do about it?"】

【You knew her grievances and also knew that this matter had nothing to do with her; it was a baseless frame-up.】

【But those disciples who had just joined did not think so; in secret, they all called "Liu Moran" a thief.】

【You could not stand it for a moment and wanted to seek justice for her, but your act of standing up for Liu Moran was instead met with slander and even siege by these people.】

【They believed that you and Liu Moran were close, which was why you spoke for her, and you were also mocked by them in secret.】

【Yue Jin, as the Master, wanted to ease these matters, but he did not know where to start to resolve the knot in their hearts, and slowly he could only let the matter be.】

【He found Liu Moran several times to express his apologies, and he also believed that it was impossible for Liu Moran to do such a thing.】

【At age 21, you left the Shangyi Sect, following Yue Jin's instructions to seek the food needed for the sect this year.】

【When you returned to the place where the Shangyi Sect was located.】

【The scene before your eyes was something you could not forget for a long time; you saw Liu Moran holding a sharp sword with a fierce look in her eyes, her words filled with madness.】

【"Let you scum slander my Senior Brother... let you slander my Senior Brother..."】

【"All of you, go to hell, hahahahaha—"】

【"New grudges and old hatreds, let's settle them together; who cares about your lousy jade pendant."】

【"Senior Brother... you're back?"】

【"Do you see how well I did?"】

【"Hahahahahaha—"】

【Like one possessed by a demon, the crazed Liu Moran went black before her eyes and immediately collapsed to the ground, while Yue Jin, who was spitting blood foam elsewhere, seemed to still have a breath left.】

【Although Liu Moran only killed a few people who were at odds with her and often slandered her with their words, Yue Jin was forced to suffer heavy injuries in order to protect these disciples; the rest of the Shangyi Sect members mostly regarded this place as a stopover, and seeing such a change and the demonized Liu Moran, they did not dare to stop her and quietly left.】

【The Shangyi Sect, which had finally gained some human atmosphere, was completely scattered.】

【"She was originally the daughter of an old friend of mine, who suffered because of a family tragedy; I took her away, but I did not expect that today, a few disciples would provoke her displeasure, causing her Inner Demon to arise and her demonic blood to turn her into a demon."】

【"This is fate, and this is destiny."】

【"The knot was not untied back then, and today I suffer this disaster; it is truly the retribution of karma."】

【"In my study, there is a family letter; her background is all written on it."】

【"From here on, I beg you to take good care of her."】

【Yue Jin reached out and grasped your hand, finally breathing his last.】

【You obtained a family letter from the Liu Family.】

【Liu Moran's grandfather was none other than the Flying General of Beidi, Liu Junru. Back then, he fought a bloody battle against the Demon Venerable who ruled Beidi, Zhou Kai, who possessed the Kirin Bloodline. In the midst of the slaughter, Liu Junru could not hold the last piece of land belonging to the Human Race; he was defeated and retreated to Beidi, becoming infected with Kirin Demon Blood, which caused the inheritance of Kirin Demon Blood to be carried within the bloodline of his descendants.】

【He retreated continuously, and in the seventh year after the bloody battle with Zhou Kai, he finally fought to the death in the last city of Beidi; the city fell and the people perished.】

【Liu Junru's wife fled Beidi, but because the Liu Family failed to hold Beidi, they bore a reputation of infamy for a hundred years.】

【More than a hundred years later, Liu Moran's father, Liu Zongju, never spent a day without thinking of recovering Beidi and washing away the humiliation of being ruled by the Demon Race. He gathered ambitious people from all over and launched a counterattack once more. Yue Jin's father was a military officer who guarded a county in Beidi back then. Over these years, Yue Jin founded the Shangyi Sect, partly to leave a torch of inheritance for the Human Race, and partly to gather information for himself.】

【In the end, Yue Jin, who had just found the people of the Liu Family, was entrusted by Liu Zongju with his young daughter, while all the other men of the Liu Family were sent to the front lines of the war against the Demon Race.】

【Better to die in battle than to be exterminated with one's kin; one must not disgrace the integrity of our generation.】

【And you also learned the truth about the destruction of the Shangyi Sect.】

The screen froze.

Gu Jiangming looked at the information, then looked at Liu Moran before him.

Oh no, this is a yandere!

【Mie Changsheng】, you really are yourself; you damn well give me this level of intensity right from the start?

A yandere with a blade.

Which bastard gave you this idea?

Are you afraid that I've been living too comfortably, so you specifically came to stimulate me?

Should I accept or not?

Gu Jiangming fell into hesitation.

This is a direct approach, and looking at the intimacy level, it seems to have met the qualifications for marriage. More importantly, Liu Moran's fall into demonic cultivation seems to be related to him.

To tell the truth, I can accept it.

And looking at the various hints and performances before, 【Mie Changsheng】 doesn't seem to be an online game; these Q-version characters on the big map seem to be just telling Gu Jiangming where his wives are located.

As for the conditions for these Q-version characters to appear on the big map, it seems that one only qualifies for this hint after becoming his wife.

Liu Moran already has this display, so it is eight or nine tenths likely that she is his wife in this life.

The main thing is, if I don't accept, I don't know what kind of outrageous plot will happen.

Still the same saying.

Not accepting a direct approach is for fools.

Even if I have to use my face, I should accept it clearly.

Agreed!

Besides, regarding this matter, Gu Jiangming felt from the bottom of his heart that Liu Moran was the victim.

The destruction of the Shangyi Sect was not her fault.

So, on the contrary, there were no other special feelings.

Being a yandere is no problem, as long as she can be reasoned with.

This was Gu Jiangming's relatively simple thought for now.

And on the other side of the screen.

Liu Moran's face was flushed red.

She was just testing it out; she didn't expect it to actually succeed.

If she had known, she would have been more proactive back then; being coy and hesitant only led to a lifetime of regret.

Now, Senior Brother has truly become her husband.

Liu Moran's heart was filled with a sense of fulfillment.

Fragments of a happy and perfect life had already appeared in her mind; warm days seemed to be beckoning to her.

Husband.

Liu Moran called out softly in her heart.

Husband, husband, husband!

She felt like she was about to faint.

Th-this 【Mie Changsheng】 Reincarnation Simulation is just too amazing, isn't it?

Could it be a fantasy that appeared because her wish came true?
