Chapter 74: Common Sense Correction Art!

"You will feel that being my daughter is a very normal thing!"

"You won't feel offended, you will treat this as a normal conversation!"

"Let go of your worries and come be my daughter!"

"Be my daughter!"

……

Words like Sanskrit chants echoed continuously in her mind, deepening the impression time and time again.

Finally, as Li Lingling's consciousness gradually returned, looking at the serious-faced Senior Brother Ren, she felt she was still a bit dizzy.

Li Lingling: "……Eh?"

Be a daughter?

Who?

Whose daughter is who?

Huh?

Shaking her head vigorously, Li Lingling finally came completely back to her senses.

"What just happened to me?"

Ren Yidao looked at his Junior Sister Li with a smile and said with concern:

"Nothing, you seemed to have been dazed for a while just now. Did you not rest well last night? Go take a nap in a bit."

Oh, she really should sleep a bit more.

"Back to the previous topic, what do you think of my proposal?"

Staring intently at Li Lingling's sleepy eyes, Ren Yidao asked softly:

"Are you willing to be my foster daughter?"

After Ren Yidao's recent common sense fine-tuning, upon hearing this sentence, Li Lingling actually didn't feel there was anything wrong with Senior Brother Ren saying this.

"Hmm... but, Senior Brother Ren, why?"

The only thing Li Lingling felt puzzled about regarding this matter was her curiosity about the reason Ren Yidao proposed this suggestion.

Raising his eyebrows imperceptibly, Ren Yidao covered his mouth and coughed lightly, explaining with a straight face:

"You might not know, but Yu Yu is actually my foster daughter."

Foster daughter?

Li Lingling recalled the title Yu Yu had blurted out when she was excited earlier and asked subconsciously:

"Then Senior Brother, are you Senior Sister Yu's stepfather?"

Hmm?

How come this relationship feels so convoluted?

Something feels strange...

Seeing Li Lingling's furrowed brows, Ren Yidao hurriedly opened his mouth to distract her:

"This, there is really nothing between me and Lady Yu, cough! It's just that I have a life-saving grace toward her, and her mother made the decision on her own."

"Let's not talk about this, back to your matter... you want to become Yu Yu's real younger sister, right?"

Although she vaguely felt something was wrong in her heart, Li Lingling still nodded decisively.

"Mm!"

Ren Yidao clapped his hands and smiled:

"Then isn't the matter simple? You take me as your foster father, and you automatically become Yu Yu's foster younger sister."

"Everyone is happy, it's reasonable and logical!"

Isn't it very good and reasonable?

Then hurry up and say you agree!

After pondering for a good while under Ren Yidao's eager gaze, Li Lingling finally raised her head unconfidently and asked tentatively:

"But... why go through this roundabout way? Wouldn't it be fine if I just became sworn sisters with Senior Sister Yu?"

Isn't this no different from being junior and senior sisters?

Li Lingling fell into confusion.

"Tsk."

Secretly curling his lips, Ren Yidao called it a pity in his heart.

Is hypnosis that differs too much from common sense really too much of a stretch?

The degree to which Fox Speech can change cognition still doesn't reach the level of nonsense...

A pity.

But having gained valuable experience this time, he will definitely be able to do better next time!

The Common Sense Correction Art will definitely succeed!

Since the deception didn't work, what should he do next?

Tilting his head to glance at the Yinglong Phantom still clutched in his hand, Ren Yidao signaled it with his eyes to think of a way.

'Hey! Time to work! Didn't you also come here with a mission?'

Yinglong: "……"

It glanced sideways at Ren Yidao and snorted a sneer from its nostrils.

Hmph!

After mocking him, it fell completely silent, and no matter how Ren Yidao shook it, it made no sound.

It didn't intend to give any more reaction at all.

"You heartless guy, go do it yourself!"

"Fine, so you want to burn all bridges, is that it?"

Squinting at the dead dragon, Ren Yidao nodded slightly and glared fiercely at it.

"You just wait, don't you ever fall into my hands later."

Otherwise, you're going to suffer a world of hurt!

Damn it, you're definitely going to have a rough time then!

After threatening the dead dragon for a long time, when he looked up and met Li Lingling's gaze, Ren Yidao had already switched back to the state of a caring big brother.

Since a direct approach was fruitless, he decided to change his strategy.

"Since that's the case, I still feel that your sworn sisterhood might be a bit improper."

Using a tone that suggested he was thinking of Li Lingling, Ren Yidao earnestly persuaded her:

"Before you become sworn sisters, you should first ask for your parents' opinion."

Indirect approach!

Oh, Brother Li Longwu.

I'm kicking this ball to you; it just depends on whether you're a smart person.

"Although you didn't say it, your family background and that of Junior Martial Nephew Li shouldn't be ordinary, right? Regarding this matter of becoming sworn sisters, I suggest you discuss it with them."

Although her consciousness was groggy, the instincts cultivated over many years as a child of the Heaven family still gained the upper hand.

Right, she was not just Li Lingling, but also a Princess of the Northern Qian Imperial Family.

What Senior Brother Ren said was indeed very reasonable; this matter truly needed to be discussed with her Imperial Father and Imperial Mother.

"Oh, okay."

"Senior Brother Ren, you're right! It was my lack of consideration!"

Unable to wait even a moment, Li Lingling, having made up her mind, immediately ran toward Luoyue Peak.

"I'll go write the letter right now!"

"Foster Father? Where is Lingling?"

"You mean Junior Sister Li? She had something to attend to and went back early; she also asked me to tell you not to wait for her."

"Oh, then I'll head back in a while."

Yu Yu did not suspect anything and accepted her junior sister's departure without saying goodbye.

Ren Yidao:?

Although ninety-nine percent of this is my problem, daughter, aren't you a bit too easy to fool?

It felt like the matter of setting up a specialized anti-abduction course for Yu Yu had to be put on the agenda.

"Oh right, do you have the scroll that Senior Brother Jian gave you for protection on you?"

"Hm? You mean this?"

Without any hesitation, she took out the scroll and handed it directly into her Foster Father's hands.

Looking at her defenseless appearance, Ren Yidao really couldn't help himself and flicked Yu Yu's forehead with his finger.

Snap!

"Ying?"

Foster Father, why did you flick me?

"You... never mind, we'll have a special lesson later."

Ren Yidao did not take the scroll, but instead sighed and tucked a transparent hair into the gap.

"What is this?"

"Nothing, just a precaution. You don't need to worry about it; just keep it on you like usual."

After Jingsheng to the Earth Realm, Ren Yidao had gained much more understanding of the application of the Dao God.

And this was just a small insurance policy.

"Never mind that, now I want to ask you a question."

Ren Yidao looked serious and asked earnestly:

"If a strange big sister appeared in front of you and told you to go with her, would you listen to her?"

Yu Yu:?

And just as Ren Yidao was instilling anti-abduction knowledge into his foster daughter, Li Lingling, who was writing a letter in her boudoir on Luoyue Peak, froze.

She looked in confusion at the red flower blooming on the letter paper.

"Blood?"

Raising her hand to touch it, she felt a wet sensation on her lips.

"I have a nosebleed?"

How is this possible?

I am a Body Cultivator who cultivates Qi and blood, how could I possibly have a nosebleed...

"Cough!"

Pfft!

Unable to restrain herself, she coughed, and a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from her mouth, splattering onto the letter paper.

Dark red blood clots stained the text that had been full of joy.

"I, what is wrong with me..."

The vision before her eyes became blurry, and Li Lingling felt her whole body begin to grow cold.

Clang.

She struggled to stand up, but stumbled and fell.

In a daze, Li Lingling felt as if she saw someone standing beside her.

A humanoid phantom coldly watching her.

She said:

"... Father, Emperor?"

Sorry for cutting it off here. (Lol)

But rest assured! I really don't write dark and depressing stories, I guarantee it on my honor.

I'll talk about it when it goes live tomorrow—
