Itâs useless even with Xiao Yu in the room. Long Shuyun was a 9-stage Dao of Dragon Realm expert, whereas Xiao Yu was just a Heavenly Fate Realm. It was impossible for Xiao Yu to save him!
âThank you, Big Sister. Big Sister has worked hard!â Although he was depressed in his heart, Nie Li still managed to pay lip service.
Xiao Yuâs face turned black as he scolded Nie Li. âNie Li, youâre filthy! Earlier, it was Long Yuyin and now, itâs another woman! Youâre simply shameless!â He slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
Long Shuyun watched Xiao Yu make his exit, patted Nie Li between the thighs, and chuckled, âNot bad! Youâre still rather tactful.â
Nie Li bitterly smiled as he couldnât figure this woman out. Was Long Shuyun really Long Yuyinâs mother? Why were the personalities of mother and daughter so different? Although Long Yuyin did have a fiery temper, she still managed to restrain it. In the eyes of others, Long Yuyin was a cold iceberg. However her mother was bold and unrestrained.
Xiao Yu probably thought that he was having an illicit relationship with Long Shuyun!
âHowever, that boy said something about âearlier, it was Long Yuyin.â What was he talking about?â Long Shuyun looked at Nie Li with a smile that wasnât a smile.
Nie Li was inwardly depressed. He didnât expect Xiao Yu to save him anyways, but why did he have to throw stones at someone whoâd already fallen down a well 1? Nie Li really had been too reckless with picking his friends!
âBrat! You think you can just eat the cookie, wipe your mouth, and intend to deny what you did? My daughter might be a little weak, but if you think weâre that easy to push around⌠Hmph, hmph!â Long Shuyun snorted.
What was she talking about? Long Shuyun seemed convinced that there was something going on between Nie Li and Long Yuyin. However, Nie Li was innocent! At most, they only had a master-disciple relationship. Everything they did was according to the rules. The one who Nie Li loved most was still Ye Ziyun. However, now that he knew that Xiao Ningâer was also bound to him by his previous life, thereâd, more or less, been space for her growing inside his heart as well. But as for Long Yuyin, they only had a master-disciple relationship between them. Furthermore, just how long had Nie Li known Long Yuyin anyways? How could any affection manage to engrave itself upon his heart in such a short time?
As for what Long Shuyun had said, âdonât think that theyâre easy to bullyâ. What was that based on? Who dared to bully Long Shuyun anyways? That, by itself, meant that they were looking to die.
âAuntie, I think itâs better if you ask for Long Yuyinâs opinion on this matter, donât you think?â Nie Li bitterly he looked at Long Shuyun and said, âI donât want to insult her innocence!â
âSo, you want to see my daughter. Well, Iâve just happened to bring her with me!â Long Shuyun looked at Nie Li with that âsmileâ again. She waved her right hand and a figure appeared. Long Yuyin quietly stood a few meters away from him.
Long Yuyin was looking at Nie Li with a complicated expression.
Nie Li was stunned. So Long Shuyun had brought Long Yuyin along. Itâs just that sheâd used some method to conceal Long Yuyinâs presence so that he couldnât see her.
He had to admit that mother and daughter looked quite similar. Long Yuyin possessed ninety percent of Long Shuyunâs attractiveness, at least. However, Long Shuyun was a little more charming, whereas Long Yuyin appeared more indifferent of her beauty. Furthermore, Long Yuyinâs figure wasnât as fiery as Long Shuyunâs. However, Long Yuyin wasnât fully grown, yet; therefore, she wasnât necessarily inferior to Long Shuyunâs looks. At least, thatâs what happened in his previous life.
That also meant that, since the beginning, Long Yuyin had heard the conversation between Nie Li and Long Shuyun!
What was that all about? Long Shuyun was dealing with Nie Li. But as his disciple, Long Yuyin didnât help her Master out?
âMother, please donât force him anymore. There was nothing between us! Last time, he only used acupuncture needles to open up my meridians!â a dull look crossed Long Yuyinâs eyes. She hadnât shown herself because she wanted to see Nie Liâs reply. However, Nie Liâs intentions were obvious in the way he evaded her motherâs questions. Long Yuyin didnât know why, but she felt terrible in her heart.
In the past, even if men approached her with ulterior motives, she didnât place them with much regard, nor would their actions have the slightest effect on her mood. Hu Yong included. However, when she heard Nie Li come up with all sorts of excuses to decline her motherâs offer, she felt a pain in her heart.
Could it be that Nie Li thought she was a terrible woman? Even if her mother forced him, Nie Li was still unwilling to marry her?
However, if she thought about it rationally, it all made sense. Sheâd only known Nie Li for a few months, and the impression that sheâd given him at the beginning was an overbearing and rude person. However, Nie Li had always been the one giving to her, and she didnât have anything that she could give back to him. Nie Li had taken her in as a disciple and released the power that was in her bloodline. Heâd already shown her extreme benevolence. How could she possibly be deserving of his affection?
âMaster Nie Li, my mother was joking with you. Please donât be too bothered by it!â Long Yuyin apologised.
Nie Li felt relieved. Itâs good that it was a joke. He had been miserably joked by Nie Li.
Long Shuyun nearly lost it when she saw Nie Liâs expression, as if he was being released from a burden. She understood her daughter very well. Nie Li obviously had a place Long Yuyinâs heart; she was just cowering.
âYinâer, are we going to let this brat go, just like that? Absolutely not! Since weâre already here, how can we return empty-handed? Thatâs not my style, the style of Long Shuyun!â She coldly snorted as she continued, âYinâer, since youâre fond of this kid, then go ahead and get pregnant with his child. If he doesnât admit that the child is his, then Iâll slaughter him. Back then, I also used this method with your father! In the past, your father also flirted around, but I was the one who subdued and collared him. Too bad that man was rather unlucky and wound up dead at the hands of the Demon Godâs Sect. Well, anyways, it just so happens that Iâm here. Iâll teach you everything, hands-on!â
Nie Li stared at Long Shuyun, speechlessly. Of all the people living under the heavens, who teaches their own daughter like that? How was her brain wired?
Hearing Long Shuyunâs words, Long Yuyin bashfully stomped her feet and anxiously said, âMother, what are you saying?!â
Long Shuyun firmly said, âYinâer, all men are hateful wretches. Listen to your motherâs advice!â
âEnough!â Long Yuyin yelled with anger and total embarrassment.
Long Yuyinâs furious voice made Long Shuyun silent. Her daughter had never spoken to her like that before.
âWhat happens between me and him is our business. You donât have to get involved!â Long Yuyin scowled. She really was a litthe angry. Long Shuyun had never cared about how her heart felt!
Long Shuyun looked at her daughter and lightly sighed. âFine. If thatâs the case, then forget about it!â Somehow, Long Shuyun felt like sheâd let her daughter down. Since Long Yuyin was about to get violent on the subject, the only thing she could do was let it go.
Long Shuyun glanced at Nie Li and coldly snorted, âIâll let you go, for now. If I hear that youâve bullied Long Yuyin again, then donât blame me for being impolite to you!â With a twitch of her right hand, she released him.
Finally freed from his bonds, Ni Li landed on the ground and sucked in heavy breaths. He couldnât understand Long Shuyun at all. Well, at least, he wasnât being threatened anymore by her dagger. He finally felt some relief.
âIâm leaving!â Long Shuyun turned and started walking out. Her expression was a little desolate.
âWait!â Nie Li called out.
âWhat do you want?â Long Shuyun turned her head as she looked at Nie Li. Hadnât he been through enough of her âlessonâ?
