"I… I hope you can take care of yourself."
"Also, if anyone slanders you again in the future, I will still stand up and speak for Yun!"
Lin Zhongyu seemed to be making a vow. As she spoke, she seemed to radiate a dazzling light, showing gentleness even to Huang Mao villains like Yun Zhonghe.
At that moment, Yun Zhonghe was stunned.
Is this guy an angel?
For a moment, Yun Zhonghe suddenly felt a little envious of Huang Aotian, who had such an understanding childhood friend.
Thinking about himself, it seemed he only had Tao Jiu'er, the accountant who loved watching the excitement and didn't mind making things bigger.
Comparing yourself to others really makes you angry.
At the same time, Tao Jiu'er, who was in the Yun Mansion, suddenly sneezed. She was reading a storybook when she suddenly stood up and looked around, her willow eyebrows slightly furrowed: "Who is speaking ill of me behind my back!"
Chapter 26 Triangles Are Stable
"Yun, please accept these Spirit Stones first. Although it's not much, the discord between Xue'er and me is not just Yun's problem. I also have responsibility, so I can't let Yun do all the work alone."
Lin Zhongyu shyly pushed her small purse into Yun Zhonghe's hand. A lotus flower was embroidered on the exquisite purse, which matched her delicate temperament.
"If Yun doesn't accept it, then I can't take this ice heart grass with a clear conscience either."
Lin Zhongyu smiled slightly, her sincere eyes never leaving Yun Zhonghe.
Yun Zhonghe nodded, knowing that he couldn't rush things. After all, he was just starting to interact with girls, and he needed to advance little by little, slowly smoothing the relationship so that it would become smoother and smoother.
If he was eager to get it done in one go, it would only backfire, and both sides might end up hurting.
So he accepted Lin Zhongyu's Spirit Stones.
Of course, Lin Zhongyu didn't know how much Yun Zhonghe had spent to get the ice heart grass, but these Spirit Stones probably included even her dowry.
This sincerity is truly overwhelming.
But in reality, Lin Zhongyu didn't need to worry about Yun Zhonghe suffering any losses, because whatever he fed to Huang Aotian would be returned to him intact.
...
"Xiao Yu, that idiot, idiot, idiot, idiot! She actually yelled at me for that person..."
Mu Jixue had been curled up in bed for a whole day, unable to eat or drink, her small face buried in the covers, shedding little pearls. She was incredibly sad.
But Mu Jixue didn't hate Lin Zhongyu. She also regretted it a little, as she just couldn't change her impulsive personality.
Her master had also criticized her for this several times.
"I really feel that person surnamed Yun is very dangerous, and the Book of Prophecy also said so. Why doesn't Xiao Yu believe me..."
"Could it be that I am really wrong?"
"But in fact, he did help Xiao Yu a lot."
So Mu Jixue could also understand Xiao Yu's anger, but she couldn't convince herself either.
"Should I apologize to Xiao Yu proactively? If I really don't care about Xiao Yu, what if that Huang Mao is really faking it? Wouldn't he succeed?"
"Perhaps Xiao Yu will be in great danger..."
Mu Jixue repeatedly engaged in intense ideological clashes. Finally, she sat up and decided to put aside her so-called self-esteem and bow to Lin Zhongyu.
No matter what, Xiao Yu was her most important childhood friend.
So the White-haired Loli crawled out of bed and quietly crept towards the door.
And just as she opened the door, she happened to bump into Lin Zhongyu, who was about to knock.
"Xiao Yu? (,,o . o,,)"
"Xue'er..."
The two looked at each other and were both stunned for a moment, but the next second, the White-haired Loli's bright, watery eyes immediately became misty.
"Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu, you finally came to find me! I thought you really wouldn't talk to me anymore! Woo woo woo..."
She threw herself into Lin Zhongyu's arms like an immature child and cried her heart out.
The grievances in her heart, which she had suppressed, poured out at this moment.
Lin Zhongyu, held by Mu Jixue, couldn't help but show a comforting smile and also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself, "This is great."
She was very grateful to Yun Zhonghe for persuading her to reconcile with Mu Jixue. If it weren't for Yun Zhonghe's push, she might not have come to find Mu Jixue, and there might have been a permanent rift between them.
And now she was very glad she came.
Yun is indeed my benefactor.
"Xue'er, I'm sorry, my attitude was bad during the day today. I apologize to you. Can you forgive me?" Lin Zhongyu gently stroked Mu Jixue's soft hair and expressed her apology to her.
Mu Jixue shook her head, quickly wiped away her little pearls, and then said, "No, it was my fault. I shouldn't have been so emotional and spoken ill of others for no reason. Xiao Yu, I really know I was wrong this time."
Mu Jixue had always been the darling of the Lin Family, and she was as beautiful as a porcelain doll, as if she would break with a touch. Now that she had been made to cry, Lin Zhongyu felt both heartache and guilt.
"Then can we still be as good as before?" Lin Zhongyu blinked her eyes, asking with anticipation.
Mu Jixue answered without hesitation: "Of course! Of course we can be good again, we will always be the best sisters!"
She finally smiled, a particularly brilliant smile, her eyes curved like a beautiful new moon.
"Oh, right, here, take this as my apology. It should be useful to you."
Lin Zhongyu took Mu Jixue's hand and placed the ice heart grass covered by an ice crystal shield into Mu Jixue's hand.
Immediately, Mu Jixue felt a strong craving from the Spiritual Root in her body.
What is this? The Rank 2 Bone Strengthening Pill my master gave me doesn't have this much attraction.
Lin Zhongyu: "This is a Rank 3 ice heart grass, which can improve the potential of ice-attribute Spiritual Roots. This is what I..."
Lin Zhongyu remembered that Yun Zhonghe had told her before leaving not to tell Mu Jixue that he had given it to her, and that Lin Zhongyu must insist that she had obtained it by chance.
She hesitated repeatedly, feeling that she still had to tell Mu Jixue the truth.
"This is something Yun specially asked me to give you. He felt bad seeing us having a disagreement."
"What? Really?!"
Mu Jixue's eyes widened, and her cute face was filled with disbelief.
"Of course it's true!" Lin Zhongyu put the ice heart grass into Mu Jixue's arms and told her to keep it safe. "Take it quickly, don't let the spiritual energy dissipate."
"I..."
"You can't refuse. This thing is very valuable, and it was also obtained by chance by Yun, without spending too much. Moreover, this thing is only useful to you. If you still don't accept it, then you are a complete idiot."
"But..."
Mu Jixue was very conflicted, but her words were all anticipated and blocked by Lin Zhongyu in advance, making it impossible to refuse.
However, upon careful consideration, if Yun Zhonghe was really coveting Xiao Yu, there was no need for him to go to such lengths. Furthermore, he had already successfully instigated discord between the two of them and could have taken advantage of the opportunity to possess Xiao Yu.
Mu Jixue was confused. For the first time, she doubted her own judgment.
Could it be that both she and the Book of Prophecy were wrong?
Seeing the hesitation in Mu Jixue's eyes, Lin Zhongyu knew that Mu Jixue was reflecting properly. This was a good opportunity to clear Yun's name. She had to say more good things for Yun to change Mu Jixue's stubborn prejudice.
"Xue'er, Yun is really not the person you imagine him to be. I don't ask you to immediately agree with him, but at least you can't criticize him without reason, do you understand?"
"If you are really worried, then why don't you just protect me well?"
"Besides, I'm not weak either. I won't always be left behind by you!"
Lin Zhongyu spoke earnestly. She knew that she couldn't correct Mu Jixue's prejudice all at once, but could only change Mu Jixue's perspective little by little.
As long as Mu Jixue saw Yun's true demeanor more often, she would definitely be impressed by Yun's charm.
Mu Jixue pursed her round lips, then nodded: "Xiao Yu, you are right. I'll listen to you this time? oˇ?ˇo.)."
Hearing Mu Jixue's reply, Lin Zhongyu could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She felt a little tired. To improve the relationship between Mu Jixue and Yun Zhonghe, she had to put in a lot of effort.
Chapter 27 Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer
"Alright then, hurry up and refine the ice heart grass. The next time you see Yun, you must thank him properly."
"Woo... Okay, I know."
Mu Jixue pouted her little lips.
Talking about Yun, talking about Yun, why does Xiao Yu keep mentioning that person?
However, Mu Jixue also knew she was in the wrong, and besides, they had just reconciled, so she didn't want to make Xiao Yu angry again and simply agreed to everything.
Moreover, this ice heart grass was indeed of great use to her. The fact that Yun Zhonghe was willing to give it to her could be considered a little bit of kindness on his part.
"For the sake of Xiao Yu and the ice heart grass, I'll be patient this time," Mu Jixue thought to herself.
...
That night, Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu reconciled, and they spent a pleasant night together.
At the same time, Yun Zhonghe, who was in the Yun Mansion, also felt happy.
He could feel his cultivation level continuously increasing!
"It seems Lin Zhongyu is progressing smoothly. That White-haired Loli has already started refining the ice heart grass."
If the two had not been reconciled, based on Yun Zhonghe's understanding of Huang Aotian's personality, she would definitely not have used the ice heart grass.
And now that the effect of the ice heart grass was starting to work, it meant that everything was developing as smoothly as Yun Zhonghe had expected, and Huang Aotian and the female lead had reconciled!
At the same time, Yun Zhonghe also felt that the warning from the Book of Prophecy had dissipated.
Perfect!
Yun Zhonghe excitedly clenched his fists.
Not only did he not damage the relationship between the two girls, but Yun Zhonghe also successfully achieved the initial acquaintance with Huang Aotian, having a relatively satisfactory start.
At least from now on, if he encountered Huang Aotian on the continent, he would have a reason to go up and say hello.
First, greet her and get familiar, then slowly increase favorability, and finally become best buddies with her. Once this path is successful, his life for the rest of his life will no longer be a problem.
"This is also thanks to Lin Zhongyu's help. As expected, getting along well with the female lead first is effective in handling Huang Aotian."
Yun Zhonghe felt delighted in his heart, and the pressure was instantly reduced a lot, especially when he felt his cultivation level rise to the Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer. The joy and excitement in his heart were almost impossible to suppress.
Oh yeah~ Leveling up is so cool!
Yun Zhonghe's talent was not particularly strong. The top-grade metal attribute Spiritual Root inherited from his Family was mostly used in sword techniques and profound skills, but his leveling up talent was average.
Yun Zhonghe was now sixteen years old. With the Family's supply, he had only cultivated to the mere Qi Refining Ninth Layer on his own, which showed that his talent was indeed very ordinary.
Of course, in Cangzhou City, he could still be considered a Genius, but that was all. However, once he went to Xuantian Sect, he could only barely be considered decent.
But now that he was bound to Huang Aotian's cultivation, Yun Zhonghe didn't need to Cultivate on his own. Huang Aotian's talent was his talent, and Huang Aotian's cultivation was his cultivation. Yun Zhonghe could level up while lying down~
He could even use the time saved from cultivation to practice his sword techniques more and improve his combat strength.
As long as his hard power was sufficient, what problems couldn't be solved? In the future, he alone could handle the troubles encountered by the female lead and Huang Aotian. They just needed to stick together.
"But I have to admit, that White-haired Loli's talent is indeed remarkable. The greater effect of this ice heart grass is to improve talent and increase the probability of forming a Nine-pattern Golden Core. However, she relied solely on the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual grass and broke through to the Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer in one go..."
Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer at fourteen years old, this is truly incredible.
When he played the game in his previous life, Yun Zhonghe didn't have much sense of Huang Aotian's rapid leveling up, but now that he was in this world, he realized how terrifying it was.
As long as he hugged Huang Aotian's thigh tightly, perhaps Yun Zhonghe could also ascend to become an Emperor.
Thinking of this, Yun Zhonghe was full of anticipation for the future.
"It seems I need to find more ways to give her leveling up pills in the future."
Yun Zhonghe's mind conjured up the scene of him intimately feeding medicine to the White-haired Loli.
Aotian, it's time for your medicine.
Huh? This line feels a bit off, doesn't it?
