Chapter 244: Lin Fan's Regret

【Little Dragon Maiden was clearly shocked when she saw the Nine Yin Manual, because the carvings left by Chongyang in the Ancient Tomb contain part of the Nine Yin Manual's content. She couldn't figure out why the Nine Yin Manual would be preserved in the Ancient Tomb.

Actually, that was carved secretly by Wang Chongyang—an old shameless man using someone else's martial arts to show off.

Back then, Wang Chongyang and the Ancient Tomb Sect's founder, Lin Lin Chaoying, were a couple. Both of their martial arts were the best in the world. Lin Lin Chaoying was strong-willed and unwilling to admit defeat, determined to win against Wang Chongyang. Wang Chongyang felt that as a man, if he were defeated by a woman, he would lose all face.

So every time their relationship was about to progress, they would always end up arguing and parting on bad terms.

Finally, the strong-willed Lin Lin Chaoying bet against Wang Chongyang, writing on a stone wall, agreeing that if Wang Chongyang lost, he would have to marry her or move out of the Ancient Tomb to become a monk.

Wang Chongyang believed he couldn't write on a stone wall with flesh and blood; Lin Lin Chaoying won by cheating. But Wang Chongyang felt he had lost face, so he would rather become a monk than marry Lin Lin Chaoying.

Lin Lin Chaoying was also a proud person. 'If you don't want to marry me, then I won't pester you.'

So the two of them—one founded the Quanzhen Sect, the other founded the Ancient Tomb Sect. Although they were both on Mount Zhongnan, they never saw each other again until death. Lin Lin Chaoying eventually died of a broken heart. A legendary heroine ending like this is truly sad and lamentable!

The Jade Maiden Sword Technique created by Lin Lin Chaoying countered every move of Wang Chongyang's Quanzhen Sword Technique. Wang Chongyang was unconvinced, so he left behind the Nine Yin Manual to show he was no weaker than others.

But he didn't know that although the Jade Maiden Sword Technique countered the Quanzhen Sword Technique everywhere, they also complemented each other. Lin Lin Chaoying actually had a set of Jade Maiden Heart-Linked Sword Techniques, and she had poured everything she learned in her life into this set of martial arts.

This sword technique requires the man to use the Quanzhen Sword Technique and the woman to use the Jade Maiden Sword Technique, and the users must be a couple to exert the maximum power of this technique.

If they are not a couple, many exquisite points are truly difficult to grasp.

If the two cannot communicate mentally, then when they link their swords, if they are friends, they are too polite; if they are elder and junior, they inevitably rely on and care for each other.

If they are husband and wife using it together, although it is wonderful, the subtle affection, the bashful shyness, the distance, and the anxiety of gain and loss are still a level behind.

From this, one can see Lin Lin Chaoying's feelings for Wang Chongyang, but Wang Chongyang only knew that 'Chongyang's life is not weaker than others.'

Lin Lin Chaoying's death truly makes me regretful. She was beautiful, talented in both literature and martial arts, and skilled in everything from music to chess, but she died of a broken heart in the Ancient Tomb.

My heart is unsettled, which is why I wrote so much without realizing it. I only hate that I came too late and couldn't live in the same era as her. Alas!】

Thinking of Lin Lin Chaoying, Lin Fan felt truly regretful. He didn't even have the heart to look at the diary system's rewards and fell straight asleep.

"I didn't expect the little thief to like this Lin Lin Chaoying so much. But she sounds like a remarkable woman who dares to love and hate. If this woman served the same husband as me, I could accept it."

Seeing this, Yao Yue was thoughtful. From the lines, she could feel Lin Fan's regret and pity for Lin Lin Chaoying, making Yao Yue feel a bit itchy, wishing she could meet her.

"It's a pity the beauty has passed away. We have no chance to meet her!"

Brother Lian Xing felt a bit emotional and also a bit regretful.

"So Ancestor and Wang Chongyang had this history. But as descendants of the Ancient Tomb Sect, our understanding of the Ancient Tomb is not even as good as Lin Fan's. That's truly embarrassing!"

Little Dragon Maiden sat up straight and muttered to herself.

"Junior Sister, are you mistaken? You actually want to compare with my husband on who knows more about the Ancient Tomb? You have to know that he has all the major events of the world under his control."

Li Mo Chou couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Diary owner Lin Fan has completed the diary check-in. Now beginning to draw diary rewards... Congratulations to Little Dragon Maiden for obtaining one chance at resurrection. Silently reciting the name of the deceased can resurrect the dead, or you can recite your own name to reserve a resurrection chance, which will automatically trigger upon death."

"What, resurrection? There's such a thing? Diary copy, is there anything you can't do?"

All the heroines were stunned upon seeing this. The diary copy actually had the ability to resurrect the dead; it was truly shocking.

"The resurrection chance is useless to me if I keep it. But now there are two choices: one is Ancestor Lin Lin Chaoying, the other is our Master. Senior Sister, which one do you think I should choose?"

Little Dragon Maiden was a bit lost. She didn't expect that she would obtain the diary copy's reward, and even less that the reward would be the qualification for resurrection.

She didn't fear death, so she didn't intend to use it on herself, but there were two people she wanted to resurrect, and she didn't know how to choose for a moment.

The lost Little Dragon Maiden could only hope her Senior Sister would give her a suggestion.

"Then naturally, it's to resurrect Ancestor Lin Lin Chaoying!"

Li Mo Chou said without hesitation.

"Why? Although Ancestor is very important, Master treated us very well too!"

"First, naturally, it's because Husband wants to take Ancestor in. I can feel Husband's regret and pity for Ancestor's early death. As a thoughtful wife, I naturally have to plan for him!"

Li Mo Chou said righteously.

"Senior Sister, you, you, you! You are rebellious! That is Ancestor! Do you have any sense of propriety or ethics left?"

"Making a fuss over nothing. As long as Ancestor herself is willing, why care about other people's opinions? I just want Husband to be happy!"

Li Mo Chou said indifferently, shocking Little Dragon Maiden's worldview.

Li Mo Chou believed that love was giving without reservation; she felt happy as long as Lin Fan was happy.

"Absurd, Ancestor would absolutely not be willing!"

Little Dragon Maiden believed that Lin Lin Chaoying would either be steadfast in her love for Wang Chongyang or have cut off all emotions and would no longer talk about love with anyone else.

"That's for her to say!"

Li Mo Chou didn't care. There hadn't been a woman Lin Fan took a fancy to who could escape, not even the Junior Sister in front of her. She would never be able to escape in this lifetime.

"You just said the first point, what about the second?"

Li Mo Chou's firm expression made Little Dragon Maiden uneasy, so she stopped arguing with her and changed the subject.

"The second point is that this resurrection chance requires silently reciting the name of the deceased. Do you know Master's name? Anyway, I don't. And I heard from Granny Sun that Master was Ancestor's personal maid, and she only had a nickname for being called around. Even she herself didn't know what her name was. Granny Sun just called her 'Miss.' How are you going to resurrect her?" ===== CHAPTER 246 =====

"The second point is that this chance for resurrection requires silently reciting the name of the deceased. Do you know Master's name? I certainly don't, and besides, I once heard Sun Xiaohong say that Master was the personal maid of the Founding Matriarch and only had a nickname used for chores. Even she herself didn't know what her own name was, and Sun Xiaohong just called her Miss. How are you going to resurrect her!"
