Sister, I don't want to be a furnace anymore. I'm about to become an immortal.

Chapter 14: Xiao Yichen's Choice

"No..." At this time, a slightly childish voice sounded in everyone's ears. Liu Qingqing stood in front of Xiao Yichen and looked at Zhang Qingyue on the stage with an angry face.

On the fighting stage, Zhang Qingyue played with her nails, looking nonchalant and mocking, "Oh??? Why? Junior Sister Liu, do you want your Senior Sister Yun to become someone who goes back on her word?"

Liu Qingqing said nothing, her face flushed red, but she still stood in front of Xiao Yichen, motionless. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she said loudly to Zhang Qingyue, "Sister Zhang, you promised me before that if you win, you will give me this little brother."

Hearing this, Zhang Qingyue on the stage looked like he had heard a huge joke. The amusement on his face became even more intense. The look he gave Liu Qingqing became a bit playful. He asked with a smile, "Then do you still remember the promise I asked you to keep? Oh, it's not really a promise. The sect has a rule that all disciples cannot help injured disciples heal in any way unless they have suffered a fatal injury. Have you forgotten this? But I think you must have really forgotten it, otherwise why would you be fined for another half a year of cultivation resources?"

At this point, Zhang Qingyue's face gradually darkened, and her voice became a little cold. She stared into Liu Qingqing's eyes and said solemnly, "And if it weren't for you, Yunmei wouldn't have recovered by now, and I wouldn't have taken away my husband's essence before he reached the peak of Qi training just to win her over. Tell me, should I forgive you now and send my junior brother to you?"

Hearing this, Liu Qingqing's face turned very ugly. Indeed, she did not do what she promised the other party, so naturally she could not ask the other party to pay her. But when she thought that Zhang Qingyue would snatch her brother away from her, she felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing Liu Qingqing still standing motionless in front of Xiao Yichen, Zhang Qingyue slowly walked up to the two of them and said slowly, "How about, let Junior Brother choose for himself? If he refuses, I will immediately turn around and leave, and never mention this matter again."

Liu Qingqing raised her head, looking at Zhang Qingyue in front of her in disbelief, and said happily: "Are you serious?" No wonder she was excited. If Xiao Yichen was really allowed to choose by himself, she was sure that Xiao Yichen would not follow the other party.

"Of course, but, Junior Brother, as your Senior Sister, I still need to remind you of one thing." Zhang Qingyue walked around Liu Qingqing and walked to Xiao Yichen's side, smiling and saying, "Now that Yunmei has failed to break through to the Jindan stage, her injuries must be very serious. If you still stay with her, as her Taoist partner, I can't guarantee that she won't take your Yuan Yang in advance to heal her injuries like I did. Why don't you go and see your Senior Sister's husband first? His current state is really miserable. It makes me feel heartbroken. I'm afraid he won't be able to recover for three to five years. Moreover, even if he recovers, his Yuan Yang was taken away by me in advance. It will be difficult for him to make further progress in his cultivation..."

Before she could finish her words, Liu Qingqing interrupted her, saying, "No, Senior Sister Yun isn't that kind of person. Who knows, there might be other ways to heal her injuries?" She then turned to look at Xiao Yichen, "Brother, Senior Sister wouldn't do that. You have to trust her. Don't be fooled by this bad woman."

At this moment, Xiao Yichen's mind was in a mess, and he kept thinking in his heart: "How did it suddenly become like this? What Zhang Qingyue said is very likely. In this sect, aren't male disciples used as furnaces? If I refuse now, who knows, it might be just as she said, and my Yuanyang will be taken away in advance to heal Yunmei. Then, all my efforts over the past year will be meaningless and wasted?" Thinking of this, his face began to be tangled. Seeing this, Liu Qingqing grabbed him with a little more strength, and her eyes changed from the initial belief to anxiety.

Feeling the strength coming from his hand, he looked at Liu Qingqing who was holding his arm with a complicated look in his eyes, cursing in his heart: "Zhang Qingyue is so scheming, throwing this problem to me. If I choose to leave Yunmei now, it will be considered as abandoning her actively. It's a typical example of despising the poor and loving the rich. Not only me, but also my senior sister will be ridiculed by other disciples in the future. I can't raise my head. How can I face people? But, if I don't refuse..."

Looking at Xiao Yichen's face in front of her, Zhang Qingyue was very proud. This was the scene she wanted to see. She not only wanted to defeat Yun Mei on the arena, but also stab her in the heart, preferably to make her depressed. After that, her position as the Saint would be a foregone conclusion.

Liu Qingqing looked at Xiao Yichen with a frown on his face, and the hope in her heart was slowly extinguished. The hand holding Xiao Yichen also slowly loosened, and she slowly stepped back, staring at the brother in front of her with some loneliness, the one she had just decided to be close to for the rest of her life.

Xiao Yichen slowly lowered his head, and seeing Liu Qingqing's eyes full of tears, his heart suddenly trembled: "Fuck, what the hell am I thinking? As a child of China, how can I forget all the propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame left by our ancestors after traveling through time? Damn it, fight to the death, the worst that can happen is that I will be sucked dry. Even if I die under the peony flowers, I will still be a romantic ghost. Damn God, this time, I will not follow your plot again."

His eyes gradually became firm, and his mind was no longer confused. He grabbed Liu Qingqing who was retreating, rubbed her head gently, then turned around and looked at Zhang Qingyue.

At this moment, he felt more relaxed than ever before. The stone that had been pressing on his chest finally fell away. He was no longer afraid of the future. From the inside out, he became completely different from before.

Zhang Qingyue looked quietly at the man in front of her. For some reason, she felt that he had suddenly become a different person. Although his appearance was the same as before, she actually felt a trace of oppression from Xiao Yichen. It had nothing to do with strength, but more like a kind of mental pressure. For a moment, she was a little dazed.

Without waiting for her reaction, Xiao Yichen bowed slightly towards her and said calmly: "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister Zhang. However, as Yunmei's Taoist partner, I will not abandon her as long as she doesn't speak. As for the bet between you, go to hell with you, you human traffickers. You will not live a good life." After that, he took the still shocked Liu Qingqing's hand, ignored the ugly face of Zhang Qingyue behind him, and strode towards Yunmei's residence. Along the way, everyone retreated.

When they were far away from the crowd, Liu Qingqing suddenly stopped. Xiao Yichen turned around with some confusion and saw that she was staring at him with tears in her eyes.

"What's wrong? Qingqing." As soon as the words fell, Liu Qingqing threw herself into his arms and burst into tears: "I thought... I thought that you didn't want me and my sister anymore."

Feeling the emotions of the little girl in his arms, he directly gave Liu Qingqing a princess hug, causing her to scream instantly. Then, Xiao Yichen looked at her with a smile on his face and said softly, "No, never, I promise."

He pinched her little face and carried her towards Yunmei's residence, which made Liu Qingqing blush and she shouted to put her down. However, Xiao Yichen acted as if he didn't hear her and continued walking forward.
