The Journey of a Passerby's Elder Brother Being Courted by Feng Ao Tia

Chapter 14: A bet for a period of three quinquennial years.



This was truly beyond his expectations.

"I told you so. Big Brother is very reliable." Lin Yuhe suddenly chimed in from the side.

At this moment, Shen Mu also walked slowly over to her and calmly patted her on the shoulder. "Junior Sister Yuhe, I also have something to talk to you about. Let's go out and talk alone."

"..."

"Alright, I got it."

Lin Yuhe remained silent for a while and roughly guessed what he was going to say to her.

...

Near the edge of the Cloud Cliff at the top of the Spiritual Peak.

The morning sun gradually rose above the sea of clouds, shortening and clarifying the shadows of the two figures.

Shen Mu stopped in his tracks, and the blond girl behind him also paused.

"Firstly, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you about that matter before." Shen Mu began by offering an apology for his previous misunderstandings of her.

"Secondly, instead of going to our master immediately in that situation, you brought her, whose special physique had been activated, to me. What exactly were you trying to do?"

"I think from what we've known before, you should also understand my attitude."

"As for the affairs between you and the protagonist group, I really have no intention of getting involved at all. I'm even eager to stay away from them."

"Then have you managed to stay away?"

Lin Yuhe's words plunged Shen Mu into a long silence.

"..."

"If you were following the original main plot..."

"Then let me ask you again, aside from that incident just now, how many unexpected events that you've encountered so far are closely related to me?"

"..."

Lin Yuhe threw out another question, causing Shen Mu to fall silent again and sink into deep thought.

"Look... Think about it carefully. Some things in this world have already undergone changes that we never expected without our realizing it."

"Whether I'm following the original path or not... actually doesn't matter that much."

Why did she become a disciple of the Wanxiang Peak?

It was Luo Qingling who took the initiative to mention it, not her who asked for it.

Why did the Holy Maiden of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect appear in the Lingjue Village?

It had nothing to do with her at all.

As for why Tang Yueyao managed to steal and eat the Acacia Elixir that she had hidden in a secret place in her room?

She was also at a loss about this. She just had a whim later and wanted to take advantage of the situation.

All of the above showed that the story of this world would no longer be as simple as the original text of the game.

"Since it's already like this, why can't we try to guide our future... to a result that we both want?"

"... But you should at least take my thoughts and feelings into consideration, right?"

"You should know what kind of physique Tang Yueyao has, and you should also be able to imagine that for a man of my age, it's very hard to resist the temptation when the effects of her physique are activated."

"If I couldn't resist and made a mistake this time, it would be very difficult to keep my relationship with her within an ordinary range."

"It's entirely possible that she might even hold a grudge against me."

Although the current situation was indeed as she said, but she didn't tell him the situation in advance and created such an accident. It was really testing his psychological endurance and ability to adapt to unexpected situations.

If he couldn't resist and became a brute this time, then it would be like being summoned by the King of Hell. There would be no escape from death.

"I've already said it was an emergency... And in the end, didn't Big Brother hold on?"

"Moreover, even if you made a mistake, based on what I know about her, as long as you handle it properly, it's possible to make her fall deeply in love with you alone."

"Then in that case, you'll have an additional harem beauty with the Pure Yin Physique and the Innate Alluring Bones in the future."

After hearing her explanation, Shen Mu let out a light sigh and said, "Haven't you thought about the relationship that she will form with Jiang Ling in the future?"

"Since the future is still uncertain, we should focus more on the judgments and changes in the present."

"..."

Shen Mu fell into a long period of thinking...

...

"Shall we make a bet?"

"What's the bet?"

"I bet that you won't die seven and a half years from now, and that I won't fall in love with him or be with him as I wish."

Lin Yuhe's eyes were extremely serious. "I'll bind my life with your final outcome in my own way."

"If you die, then I'll follow you. You won't be alone on the road to the underworld. If you don't die and I fail to achieve the result I want, then I'll let you do whatever you want with me."

"This is the stake I'll pay if I lose."

"But on the contrary, if I win, you can't refuse any of my requests, and you'll always be my male confidant."

Hearing this bet that seemed like a momentary whim of hers, Shen Mu couldn't help frowning slightly and blurted out, "Are you crazy?"

"Yes, I'm crazy. Do you dare to bet?"

Anyway, in her past life in that world, those people had said that to her more than once.

If she didn't do as they wished in the slightest, it was wrong and she had to change.

As long as she didn't live the life they arranged for her, she was considered crazy and couldn't be understood.

From childhood to adulthood, she had only been regarded as a chess piece or a tool for interest exchange by them, with no freedom at all.

If she had been reborn in this world...

And still couldn't change this "predetermined" fate, then it would be better to entrust the rest of her life in this world to someone she could at least trust.

"If you dare, we'll make an oath to the Heavenly Dao right now."

"..."

Shen Mu remained silent for a long time. His handsome face, bathed in the early morning sunlight, slightly drooped, and his eyes were also quietly closed, as if he was seriously considering it.

"Are you... serious?"

After a while, he confirmed again her attitude of being willing to abandon everything for her whim.

"What I say, goes." Lin Yuhe confirmed very seriously.

...

On the main peak of the Wanxiang Peak.

Luo Qingling was quietly sitting cross-legged in her cave dwelling, and a slight smile suddenly appeared on her lips.

"This little girl is really quite special. It seems that my decision back then was right. Maybe she can really change his life."

There were more than just the two of them who wanted to change their predetermined fates.

"However..."

"The Tang Yueyao she brought is an object that needs to be handled with caution. I need to go and investigate her origin carefully."

Just now, when she was refining the medicinal power in Tang Yueyao's body, she discovered that there were some extremely secret and mysterious Dao patterns and seals hidden within the body of this thirteen-year-old girl.

If it weren't for the fact that the cultivation method she was currently majoring in was rather special and her divine sense was far stronger and moresensitively than those of her peers, perhaps she wouldn't have been able to detect any clues at all.

And based on just this point, Luo Qingling dared to conclude that Tang Yueyao's origin must be extraordinary.

After all, those who could inscribe the patterns of the Great Dao must have a cultivation level of at least the Harmonious Dao Realm.

...

"Jiang Ling, do you really want to go to that place to gain insights and practice?"

On the Tianxiang Peak, Luo Qingyue's red hair fluttered, and as she looked at the young man bowing and requesting in front of her, a somewhat serious look appeared in her cold eyes that were as red as glass.

"Yes, disciple has the Innate Sword Bone. When it comes to practicing swordsmanship cultivation methods, everything has been smooth sailing and effortless."

"However, when it comes to the comprehension of my own sword intent, disciple always feels that there is something lacking in my state of mind and I can't grasp that special feeling."
