Ling Jue could no longer bear it. With a cold expression, he took off his outer robe and angrily threw it to the ground.
"Ding, Fire Nether's goodwill increased by 5! Host, you're defying expectations, defying expectations indeed! It's already increased by nine points!" The system became excited.
Ye Wu raised an eyebrow. This Ling Jue isn't completely useless, after all!
Using him as a tool to boost goodwill points seems pretty effective.
"Ye Wu, next time, even if you beg me on your knees, I won't see you again." Ling Jue gritted his teeth.
Ye Wu cheerfully agreed, "Alright, it'll be great not to see you. Oh, and your shoes..."
Ling Jue gritted his teeth and took off his shoes as well.
"Fire Nether's goodwill increased by 1."
"And your Jade Pendant at your waist..."
The Jade Pendant was also removed.
"Fire Nether goodwill +1."
"The Golden Ring Treasure on your wrist..."
"Fire Nether goodwill +1."
The Golden Ring Treasure was also removed.
"And..."
"Ye Wu, don't push your luck!" Ling Jue said coldly, "I don't have anything of yours left on me!"
"Not on you," Ye Wu agreed with a nod, "But over the past ten years, you've taken so many things from me. Since you don't value these things, I'll make a list when I get back, and you can return everything to me according to it."
Ling Jue glared at Ye Wu.
The veins on his hands bulged.
How dare she!
How dare she!
Is she not afraid that I'll ignore her forever?
Suddenly.
Ling Jue realized something.
The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile, "Ye Wu, I underestimated you. Now you're playing a mind game, aren't you? Let me tell you, I cultivate the Heartless Dao. It doesn't matter what tricks you use; I won't have the slightest bit of goodwill towards you. So save your useless tactics."
Ye Wu rolled her eyes, "I admire your confidence, but don't be so confident next time. I'll send the list over in three days. You better be prepared."
After speaking.
Ye Wu ignored Ling Jue, glancing back at Fire Nether, "Pick up everything on the ground; we're returning to the Joy Sect."
"Host! Be considerate! He's still injured; if you make him bend down to pick things up, what if it strains his wound? Don't you want the goodwill points?" The system was anxious.
Fire Nether's expression shifted slightly, but he unhesitatingly picked up everything on the ground.
"Ding. Fire Nether goodwill +2. Current goodwill: -45."
Suddenly.
A prompt sounded in Ye Wu's mind.
The system was stunned.
Does this also increase goodwill?
Ye Wu smiled slightly, communicating with the system in her mind, "What do you know? In a way, these things are Fire Nether's spoils of war. What man wouldn't like holding onto his spoils?"
System: "..."
Really can't understand at all.
Ye Wu was too lazy to explain to the system and directly left Cangming Sword Sect with Fire Nether.
In front of the cave entrance.
Ling Jue's hair was disheveled.
He was barefoot, wearing only his underclothes.
Appearing more disheveled than ever before.
He looked sharply at the fellow disciples who were sneaking glances over this way and said coldly, "What are you looking at? That crazy woman Ye Wu is just acting crazy again. In less than an hour, she'll be eagerly bringing everything back, crying and begging me to see her."
Moreover.
Ye Wu will bring even more substantial gifts.
Otherwise.
How would I forgive her?
This time.
If Ye Wu doesn't bleed profusely, she won't be seeing me again.
Ling Jue walked into the cave with a grim expression.
Others quickly averted their gaze.
They didn't dare laugh at Ling Jue either.
After all.
What Ling Jue said could very well become reality.
Ye Wu's persistent adoration for ten years was well-known.
Following the path from her memory.
Ye Wu returned to the Joy Sect with Fire Nether.
As a second generation cultivator, while other ordinary disciples could only live in cramped rooms, she already owned a whole small mountain peak.
Her mother also specially brought a Spiritual Spring to place inside the cave, making the Spiritual Power in this place several times denser than elsewhere!
What can you do!
Her mother, Ye Liuyun, is the top expert of the Joy Sect, a late-stage Tribulation peerless powerhouse!
Looking at this luxurious cave, Ye Wu couldn't help but marvel.
The original protagonist really squandered a good hand of cards.
Her mother found her the best Furnace and gave her the best cultivation resources.
And her.
All for a man.
The Furnace was left unused, the resources all given away.
Romantic obsession ruins a lifetime!
Ye Wu and Fire Nether had just paused at the entrance.
Inside the cave.
The other four Furnaces all came out warily.
"Fire Nether, are you alright?" A fox clan youth anxiously walked to Fire Nether's side.
Fire Nether's expression was a bit strange.
Is he considered alright or not...
He thought.
The one who might have an issue is Ye Wu.
Surely something's wrong with her head, otherwise why would she treat her beloved Ling Jue like this?
Ye Wu sized up these four Furnaces.
"Hu Jiuling: Goodwill: -30."
Hu Jiuling, Fox Clan. Recalling memories, he seems to be a relatively simple and harmless person.
"Qingxuan: Goodwill: -50."
Qingxuan, Human Clan. Before being taken as a Furnace by the original protagonist, he was a talented alchemist. However, someone crippled his meridians, leaving him frail afterward.
"Xiao Heng: Goodwill: -70."
Xiao Heng, Human Clan. He was originally from the royal family of the human world, but after the dynasty toppled, only he escaped with the treasure sword passed down through the royal family. He agreed to become a Furnace for the original protagonist to grow stronger.
Ye Wu raised an eyebrow. This Xiao Heng's initial goodwill is even lower than Fire Nether's!
What insane things did the original protagonist do to him?
Ye Wu glanced through her memories and understood.
Just because Ling Jue said that Xiao Heng's treasure sword looked interesting, the original protagonist actually handed over the treasure sword passed down through the royal family directly to Ling Jue!
This was Xiao Heng's only cherished memento. How could he not hate the original protagonist to the core?
Ye Wu sighed inwardly.
Now, she had to clean up this mess.
Finally, she looked at the last one.
"Mo Ye: Demon Clan. Goodwill: -90."
Being from the Netherworld Demon Clan, Mo Ye has a natural Netherworld Fire. It's said that using Netherworld Fire for purging impurities makes it cleaner. To please Ling Jue, the original protagonist kept Mo Ye locked in the Artifact Refining Room for ten of every eight days, refining materials.
Ye Wu was silent.
Alright, alright, every goodwill point is more negative than the last!
The original protagonist really dug her own grave!
The system was afraid Ye Wu might just abandon it, so it encouraged her, "Host, although they are all negative now, if we work hard, we can turn negatives into positives! Your Furnaces are actually quite talented; otherwise, your mother wouldn't have chosen them. Once you open their treasure chests, you can not only draw what you need but also what they need."
"By then, just offering small temptations, won't you have them loyal to you?"
"But remember, you must offer temptations. Be gentle, be considerate!"
The system was diligently spinning a dream.
Ye Wu raised an eyebrow.
Gentle and considerate?
That's something she could never do!
She looked at the five Furnaces, "Come in. Let's discuss the future of dual cultivation."
System: ??? So direct???
