Among the five paranoid male protagonists, who do you want me to choose?

Yu Zhao in the water did not go ashore at the speed of light, but hid his whereabouts in the fog and swam straight to the blood-red lotus in the center of the lake.

But every time she got close, the lotus seemed to have grown legs and quickly retreated half a step at an incredible speed, always keeping a certain distance from her.

It is so close that I can reach it with just my hand, but it is just out of reach.

Seeing this, Yu Zhao hurriedly stopped, hiding in the mist. He squatted for a long time before slowly moving his palm. Now! The wind whistled past, barely brushing the blood-red petals.

It was a perfect miss, but it created a huge splash.

The missed palm hit the water surface, and the splashing water hit Yu Zhao's face, just enough to make her feel cold.

Yu Zhao: “…”

I tried twice more without giving up, but the nine-petal snake lotus was still standing tall and graceful, and no one could touch it at all.

In the thick fog, something hidden under the water kept moving. The next moment, the white mist gradually penetrated into the water. The surrounding lotus leaves withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into residual leaves floating on the water. The nine-petal snake lotus that looked like a gem was also dragged into the water.

Yu Zhao seized the opportunity and stretched out her hand. This time, she finally grabbed the thorny stem below the blood-colored lotus. The blood dyed a small area of ​​water red. She exerted a little force, but this time she failed to pull it out.

The spike seemed to come alive, shining with a strange luster and stirring in Yu Zhao's flesh and blood.

Yu Zhao frowned, and with his other hand, he held the Jinghong Sword and swung it down fiercely. The lotus stem broke away from the blood-colored lotus and suddenly attacked her.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Yu Zhao quickly withdrew her hand, but that thing was even faster. She calmly raised the knife, intending to cut open the flesh and dig out the foreign object that was running around under the skin.

However, after sucking the blood, they became dry and ran out as if fleeing from famine, and hurriedly dived into the water and disappeared.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, with only a blood-red lotus slowly opening on the water surface, showing no desire to attack.

Yu Zhao's eyelashes trembled slightly, shaking off the water droplets on them, and raised his hand to take the nine-petal snake lotus into his hand. The lotus was quite large and required both hands to hold it.

Looking at it from a closer distance, this nine-petal snake lotus is even more stunningly beautiful. The sparse light powder shimmers slightly, as if the stars in the night sky are also integrated into it. Each of the nine petals grows very symmetrically and has uniform thickness.

Faced with such a beautiful thing, Yu Zhao couldn't help but take a few more glances at it and couldn't let it go. The little black fish in his arms swam its tail and lay on Yu Zhao's shoulder, also looking at the nine-petal snake lotus.

He just watched quietly, and only came back to his senses after Yu Zhao came ashore and used his spiritual power to dry the water off his clothes.

There was no expression on his face, but a different idea was burning in his heart. When Yu Zhao turned around, he stepped forward and approached the blood-red lotus on the ground.

The deep eyes were not calm at this moment.

He wanted to replace Shen Yuzhuo.

There can only be one Shen Yuzhuo in a timeline. He is the soul of love, the abandoned child that Shen Yuzhuo stripped away and ascended to heaven. Although he does not know why he reversed time and space to come back, he only knows:

He didn't want to be Shen Yuzhuo's appendage, he just wanted to be Zhao Zhao's Zhuo.

The wind blew away the clouds, and the emotions accumulated in the heart were like a flood that broke through the dam. The little black fish's inky body was surrounded by unspeakable emotions.

She wouldn't like a fish, so he needed a body.

His eyes narrowed slightly, looking cold and gloomy. When he caught a glimpse of the girl's back under the moon, his eyes suddenly closed, and his surging emotions calmed down. The next moment, a gilded light mixed into the nine-petal snake lotus.

He can't rush.

After tidying his clothes, Yu Zhao strode forward, bent down to pick up the small black fish on the ground and put it on his shoulder. Holding the nine-petal snake lotus in both hands, he turned around and glanced at the misty lake behind him. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he had successfully fished in troubled waters.

The cool breeze at night is mixed with a hint of chill, and the moist air mixed with dew makes people feel relaxed.

"Zhao Zhao, you..." Little Black Fish's heart tightened, and he tried to ask her in a normal tone, not to be too deliberate.

Yu Zhao turned her head slightly, her soft hair swaying slightly, a few strands of hair fell playfully on his head, stroking his head gently as she moved forward.

"what?"

"What kind of person do you like?" Little Black Fish was a little panicked. He wanted to get rid of Shen Yuzhuo's shadow and maybe become an independent person according to Zhao Zhao's idea.

Shen Yuzhuo's denial and Zhao Zhao's affirmation of him were his opportunities.

Like... this word is too far away. In his previous life, Yu Zhao struggled for money and life. In this life, he struggled for money and cultivation.

She blurted out, "Someone who is rich and good-looking."

She did not deny that she was a visual animal who looked at faces but also money.

The little black fish's eyes flashed, and he immediately memorized these two important things in his mind.

Yu Zhao stopped and asked suspiciously, "Why are you asking this?"

"I want to be Zhao Zhao's Taoist partner." The young man was full of love and spoke in a straightforward manner, as simple as what to eat tonight.

"I don't need a Taoist companion." Yu Zhao stiffened his body and rejected him with a cold expression. He said meticulously, "Men will only slow down my sword-drawing speed."

She stroked her chin and said frankly, "I still prefer money."

The man and the fish were very close, so close that they could feel the distance between each other, but the little black fish felt a tightness in his heart, and he could feel that what Zhao Zhao said was true.

"Then... do you want to practice the way of ruthlessness?" he asked.

Hearing this, Yu Zhao calmly lowered his eyes, shook his head, and replied softly, "I practice the Free and Easy Way."

As everyone knows, the Wuqing Dao has the lowest graduation rate in the world of immortal cultivation. If one wants to ascend, one still has to take other paths. She thinks the Xiaoyao Dao is just right, leisurely and unrestrained, free and easy.

"Zhao Zhao, you... don't like me at all?" The little black fish's eyes were stained with a hint of sadness. Just because he was a fish, he couldn't be regarded as a normal person...

"I do like it." Yu Zhao tapped his forehead, his tone calm but insistent, "I like your company."

In other words, it could be him or the little monster, as long as she feels safe and can be with him.

I'm afraid she can't give or afford anything extra.

Although the boy and Shen Yuzhuo's souls had the same form in the red moon, Zhuo only had a sense of familiarity and security, while Shen Yuzhuo had some murderous aura and suspicion, and there was a risk of betrayal at any time.

After some comparison, Zhuo is more cost-effective.

If they came to a fight, she would help him first if it was safe.

It is instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
