Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

Chapter 110 95. The First Confrontation Between Lin Qingque and Jing Lixue



Xu Yuan emerged from the main room, his brows knitted together as if pondering something.

The girl named Huang Ying hopped towards him, patting him on the shoulder. Her beautiful jawline slightly lifted, like an arched bridge, pointing ahead.

Xu Yuan looked up and saw Lan Mei standing before him, her expression slightly tense, her eyes fixed on him—clearly, she had something to say.

"What's the matter, Senior Sister?"

Xu Yuan didn't harbor any ill impressions of her.

Although she had been deceived by Lin Qingque and mistook him for some scoundrel, at least she had not shown any hostility toward him, simply caring for her junior brother and sister, which was enough for him.

"Be careful,"

Lan Mei's lashes trembled slightly as she cautioned, "This Princess Luoyang, I always feel there's something not quite right about her. If anything unexpected happens, you can shout my name. No matter what, I'm a Nascent Soul Great Perfection cultivator. If I exert my full power, even if this princess's mansion is filled with Formations, it wouldn't be a problem to shatter them."

"I understand,"

Xu Yuan wasn't sure if she said this deliberately for Jing Lixue inside to hear, but he still nodded and agreed.

Those twin maidservants behaved as if they had not heard the conversation, patiently waiting for them to finish before respectfully saying, "Please follow us, Immortals. The princess has arranged a resting place for you. In the afternoon, the princess will summon everyone in the mansion to gather in the front courtyard."

Elsewhere.

In a room antiquated and hung with precious scrolls.

Lin Qingque and Jing Lixue stood facing each other, one seated, one standing, one cold and one silent, subtly creating a situation of evenly matched power.

"You kept me here—do you have something you want to say?"

Lin Qingque stared at Jing Lixue, her cold and immortal-like face filled with solemnity.

Unlike Lan Mei's feeling, Lin Qingque found the Princess Luoyang before her very dangerous.

The sense of crisis she felt from her was even a bit greater than that from Tian Liuli, whom she considered the greatest enemy of her life.

Jing Lixue, listening to the chilly tone in her words, wasn't particularly surprised, but she picked up a Memory Crystal from the table next to her and started to toy with it.

Seeing her act so nonchalantly, Lin Qingque's brows knit together. She didn't hesitate anymore and activated her Heart Voice ability.

Even though she had no interest in the Heart Voice of anyone other than Xu Yuan.

But that didn't mean she would forsake the chance to read the Heart Voice of others.

Catching a glimmer of light flash across Lin Qingque's eyes, Jing Lixue wasn't much surprised either.

If one was to talk about potential alone, Lin Qingque's potential as a Heart Voice was definitely one of the highest among the five of them.

It's just a pity that after losing the Magical Treasure that suited her extremely well, her current strength made it very difficult for her to catch up with them.

Since that was the case, let her lend her a helping hand. If Lin Qingque couldn't bring enough pressure to bear on Xu Yuan, then it would indeed be problematic for her.

As for that recording, now was not the time.

She would wait until she could strike a killing blow before using it.

When that time came, even if he guessed all this was her doing, what could he do?

Apart from her, he had lost all other options.

"This is..."

While she was silently reflecting, Lin Qingque suddenly froze in place.

She looked up around her, only to find that somehow, she was now immersed in an entirely new world.

All around was an endless sea of ice, a near-white sun hanging overhead, and a vast sea of ice beneath her feet.

What place was this?

Lin Qingque's eyes were filled with astonishment and panic; this was the first time her Heart Voice had failed.

No.

It wasn't so much a failure as it was that she had encountered a voice utterly different from any other.

"A person's consciousness and persona are like icebergs floating on the sea surface, with only the tip visible. What truly determines a person's nature and behavior is that part hidden beneath the sea."

Lin Qingque listened to this voice echoing between heaven and earth, and her gaze became contemplative.

So this was it?

The tip of the iceberg.

Lin Qingque's trance-like gaze only lasted for a moment.

The next moment, she pulled herself out from that mysterious world of the heart, her eyes coldly fixing on Jing Lixue, "Who are you, really?"

"Is that really important?"

Jing Lixue looked at the Book of Fate only visible to her, which had the glowing golden words Hidden Dragon in the Abyss written with great strength and vigor, as if ready to leap out at any moment. She lightly pursed her lips and gave a calm smile, saying.

Lin Qingque really wanted to read her Heart Voice again, but the earlier experience gave her pause, and she couldn't quite decide for a moment.

Seeing her hesitation, Jing Lixue, looking as if it didn't concern her, propped her head with her right arm and casually flipped through the book, "Speaking of which, Miss Lin, it seems I have yet to ask about your relationship with Xu Yuan."

"Hmph,"

Lin Qingque's expression shifted uncertainly.

After a moment, she gave up on the idea of continuing to pry and said, "My relationship with Senior Brother is that of privately vowed life partners."

"Oh? So you mean to say it's unrequited love?"

"Don't you understand the meaning of privately vowed life partners?"

Lin Qingque took a deep breath and said with a resolute tone, "Senior brother also likes me!"

"So that's how it is."

Jing Lixue said with a charming smile, "But how come I can't quite see it? It always seems to me that Xu Yuan and Miss Lin merely have a pure brother-sister relationship."

"You don't have a Dao Companion, so it's quite normal that you can't see it."

Lin Qingque's face fell, as she retorted with a sneer, "Perhaps, for your entire life, you'll never understand the feeling of mutual affection."

"That may be true."

Jing Lixue wasn't angered. Instead, she sounded almost sentimental as she reminded gently, "However, Miss Lin shouldn't be too careless. After all, I've heard that Xu Yuan is already engaged to the next Palace Master of Qiushui Shengong. Even if your affections are mutual, given the way the tide is turning, it might not be possible for you to have your wish."

"How did you know?"

Lin Qingque's expression changed.

This matter should have been known only to a few people.

"Eh?"

Jing Lixue feigned surprise, "Miss Lin, you're not aware of this? I've been hearing such rumors ever since that person from Qiushui Shengong entered the city."

"Tian Liuli?"

Lin Qingque was taken aback and then frowned immediately.

She never would have thought that Tian Liuli, who always seemed so proud, would do such a thing.

Seeing Lin Qingque's eyes nearly breathing fire, Jing Lixue's smile deepened.

In truth, she was the one who had spread these rumors.

Xu Yuan wanted Lin Qingque to compete with Tian Liuli, but didn't she want the same?

After all, in terms of strength, she was not yet a match for Tian Liuli at the moment.

Of course, this was only considering her own strength alone.

If she were to use the Formation, naturally it would be different.

But in order to lure Xu Yuan into the trap, she had to pretend as if she didn't yet possess the Four Divine Beasts.

Therefore, to avoid any confrontations with Tian Liuli as much as possible, she needed to find someone to attract some of the firepower.

...

Guided by the pair of twin maids, Xu Yuan arrived in a quiet and elegantly ancient courtyard.

In the central courtyard, there stood two ancient trees; one was a loquat tree, and the other was also a loquat tree.

"This courtyard is named 'This Joyful Residence'. From now on, it will be Immortal's dwelling place," said the two beautiful young girls with outstanding looks and figures, speaking with respect. "Furthermore, we will specialize in attending to Immortal from now on. Whatever Immortal needs, he can tell us sisters."

"I am the elder sister, Ling, and Immortal can call me Linger."

"I am the younger sister, Feng, and Immortal can call me Fenger."

Xu Yuan glanced at the pair of twin sisters who exuded charm, nearly indistinguishable from one another, and said with a half-smile, "Any needs I might have?"

Under his gaze, the twin sisters lowered their heads with shy blushes coloring their fair faces. They nodded and said, "Yes, Princess Luoyang's orders were to follow Immortal's commands without question."

Just when the two thought that perhaps a double blessing was to bloom, or that the handsome young Immortal before them would ravage them, the smile on Xu Yuan's lips suddenly took on a teasing edge as he said, "What if... I mean, just suppose, I asked you to defy your princess's orders?"

"Ah?"

"What?"

The sisters' beautiful eyes widened, their mouths slightly agape as they exchanged looks of confusion.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Princess Luoyang had instructed them to obey him at all costs.

And yet he was asking them to defy that very directive?

Should they follow such defiance or not?

If they heeded his command, would that not be equivalent to defying Princess Luoyang?

If they disobeyed his command, it would also amount to defiance against Princess Luoyang.

In that moment, their minds were stormed with confusion, their CPUs nearly overheating.

"I was just joking," said Xu Yuan, as he shook his head after seeing their genuinely bewildered looks.

It seemed he had overthought the situation.

Originally, he had assumed Jing Lixue sent them to watch over him, but now it appeared they were just lambs sent to the slaughter.

Wouldn't she fear him coaxing some information out of them?

But he didn't believe, given Jing Lixue's cunning, that she would commit such an oversight.

Xu Yuan frowned, pondering what Jing Lixue's true intentions might have been in sending these two his way.

"Immortal has traveled a long journey, you must be tired by now. Princess Luoyang has already arranged for hot water to be prepared in your room. Would you like us to help you bathe?" said the elder sister from the Bingdi Flowers, seeing Xu Yuan frown.

"Oh?"

Xu Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he suddenly looked at the two, his gaze deep, as if he had discovered something, "Apart from this, hasn't your princess mentioned something else to you?"
