Chapter 185 The Cold and Aloof Immortal's Darkened Daoist Partner 34

Yun Qing dragged Zong Yunze on a shopping spree, and Li Lang followed suit, occasionally stealing glances at Yun Qing.

How could Yun Qing not feel such an obvious gaze?

But she just felt confused. Why was this person staring at her?

Moreover, whatever she bought, Li Lang would buy the same thing.

Zong Yunze's expression grew colder and colder. At this moment, Yun Qing suddenly pulled him aside, frowned, and said, "Senior brother, I think he's after you."

Zong Yunze: ...

Li Lang: ? ? ?

The system couldn't help but ask: "Host, he's been staring at you the whole time. How can you believe he's after Zong Yunze?"

Yun Qing stated logically and persuasively: "It's very simple! I've only been resurrected for a short time, what could possibly be worth anyone's trouble?"

[But my senior brother is different. He is the leader of the righteous path. With him in charge, the position of the Flowing Cloud Immortal Sect is unshakeable. If the Endless Black Sea has any ambitions, it cannot avoid him.]

[But he's not easy to deal with. Then, their young master suddenly realized that I, as the Daoist partner of Immortal Venerable Yunze, was actually so weak, so naturally he set his sights on me!]

System: ...It actually makes a lot of sense.

He has the pure heart of a young man, but you've twisted it into something that's scheming and manipulative.

The system was already used to it; after all, it wasn't the first or second time that the host had been dragged down by romantic feelings and had his IQ affected.

Li Lang wanted to explain, "I meant no harm, it's just..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yun Qing had already pulled Zong Yunze around and left the shop, saying to Zong Yunze, "Senior brother, do you think he's pretending to be stupid on purpose, trying to use Lin Yao'er to get involved with Hei Long, and then take the opportunity to get close to you?"

Li Lang looked completely bewildered. No, I wasn't pretending to be stupid! I really... ugh! I'm not stupid!

That was just a misunderstanding, okay?

He quickly paid and chased after them, carrying the selected candied fruit.

Then Yun Qing analyzed, "How could the young master of the Endless Black Sea be so stupid? If he were really that stupid, how could the Endless Black Sea have let him out alone like that?"

Li Lang couldn't help but say, "I snuck out!"

After saying that, he felt something was off; it sounded like he was admitting he was really stupid.

Yun Qing turned around and looked him over carefully, seemingly agreeing that he might genuinely be foolish. "I see..."

Just as Li Lang thought she had finally come to believe he was a good person and was feeling somewhat happy, Yun Qing frowned and said, "Then, with you like this, it's too easy for you to get into trouble running away alone. In that case, won't the Endless Black Sea have an excuse to launch an attack?"

Li Lang: !!!

What does he look like?

The Endless Black Sea doesn't really have such grand ambitions!

At this moment, Zong Yunze spoke up: "I will have someone notify the people of the Endless Black Sea and have them bring the person back as soon as possible."

Yun Qing's concerns were not without reason. Even if the Endless Black Sea did not have the ambition to rise to power, if the young master Li Lang really got into trouble outside, the Endless Black Sea would definitely cause trouble.

If this gets out of hand, he'll have to step in, which will be a hassle!

All he wants now is peace in the world.

Li Lang didn't want to go back; he had finally managed to get out.

However, he knew he couldn't change Zong Yunze's decision, so he didn't bother.

However, since they are so worried about him getting into trouble, it's reasonable for him to seek protection from them, right?

Just as he was thinking this, Zong Yunze gave him a cool glance and said, "Before the people from the Endless Black Sea arrive, to ensure your safety, you should stay at the Flowing Cloud Immortal Sect."

Li Lang was delighted to hear this, "Great!"

He thought that once he went to the Flowing Cloud Immortal Sect, he could see Yun Qing forever.

To everyone's surprise, Zong Yunze said, "Then go ahead."

Then he turned around and pulled Yun Qing along, saying, "Qingqing, there are spirit fruits for sale over there."

Li Lang stared blankly at the two figures as they walked away, then quickly chased after them, saying, "Aren't you going back to Liuyun Immortal Sect? Then I won't go either."

Before Zong Yunze could even get angry, Yun Qing became displeased, turning to look at him with suspicion, "You still say you don't have any ulterior motives? Then tell me why you insist on following us!"

Under Yun Qing's scrutinizing gaze, Li Lang's eyes darted away, somewhat embarrassed. He was about to speak when Yun Qing interrupted him.

"Feeling guilty?"

Li Lang: ...I'm really not a bad person!

He gritted his teeth, simply removed the mask from his face, cleared his throat, and asked, "Am I good-looking?"

Yun Qing was full of questions, not knowing what he was up to, and said bluntly, "Not as good-looking as my senior brother."

Li Lang was indeed good-looking, with bright eyes and sparse eyebrows, and his features were relatively soft, giving him a non-aggressive and elegant appearance.

But whatever he looks like, my senior brother is the best looking.

Besides, she was just telling the truth.

Zong Yunze's lips curled into a smile. He found Yun Qing's silly appearance adorable no matter how he looked at her, making it hard for him to get angry at his hated rival.

Li Lang glanced at Zong Yunze's face, speechless, and looked somewhat defeated.

He handed over the candied fruit he was carrying, saying, "Here you go."

Yun Qing's eyes instantly filled with wariness. Was she trying to lure her with food?

"No, my senior brother bought it for me."

Seeing her like this, Li Lang became a little anxious. "I really didn't mean any harm. I just... I just like you."

Yun Qing was completely bewildered, wondering if she had misheard.

She retreated towards Zong Yunze in a slightly flustered manner, squeezing herself into his arms.

Zong Yunze reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist, amused, and said, "What are you afraid of?"

Someone confessed their love to his Daoist partner right in front of him. He should have been very angry, but looking at Yun Qing like this, it seemed like someone wanted to harm her.

Yun Qing looked up at him, her face expressionless, and said, "I'm afraid you'll use this as an excuse to say you want to cultivate together for a thousand or eight hundred years again."

Zong Yunze raised an eyebrow and said, "It's not your fault, I won't make any unreasonable demands to punish you."

"But you'll say you're sad, upset, insecure, hurt, and need me to comfort you..."

And she will definitely be bewitched by him.

Zong Yunze remained silent.

Then he changed the subject, saying, "He's still waiting for you to refuse."

As for his sadness, distress, and unease, we'll talk about that when the time is right.

Li Lang: !!!

Am I waiting for a rejection?

Then Yun Qing truly rejected him, saying, "I don't like you, and I already have a Daoist partner."

Li Lang, undeterred, said, "It's not like you can only have one Daoist partner."

Despite Zong Yunze's cold gaze, Li Lang stubbornly stared at Yun Qing.

Yun Qing frowned, not commenting on his views, but simply refusing him again, "But I only want my senior brother, and we have made a pact and a vow to the Heavenly Dao, we will only have each other."

Li Lang's eyes dimmed. Hearing Yun Qing's words, he knew he really had no chance.

Li Lang was quite taken aback; his eyes were red, and he said in a muffled voice, "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll go stay at the Liuyun Immortal Sect."

He turned and left after he finished speaking.

The system, never one to shy away from a good spectacle, clicked its tongue and commented: "[The little puppy seems to be crying. So pitiful! Host, you're truly heartless.]"

Yun Qing was displeased upon hearing this. [System, are you out of your mind? Is he more pitiful than my senior brother? Get this straight, he's the one trying to steal someone else's partner; my senior brother is the one whose partner was stolen!]

System: ...You know what, it's really hard to refute.
