A harem of this size and variety can be considered huge. If you don't have the absolute strength to suppress it, you will probably end up bringing disaster upon yourself and being divided into a hundred equal parts.
Therefore, although Liu Yuan has been deeply involved in various events since he traveled through time, he has never relaxed his cultivation for a moment. Otherwise, even if he had unparalleled talent or a perfect dual cultivation furnace, it would be difficult for him to reach the eighth level of Golden Elixir in three months, which could be described as a miracle.
What is more terrifying than the 100% distribution is that if he is unable to stop those jealous women, then perhaps one day, these women, who comprise almost the entire Upper Central Realm, will lead to an unprecedented melee.
This is not a matter of a group of women fighting over a man, but a sign of the ignition of a war and the beginning of a chaotic world.
In order to prevent Shangyangjie from becoming a tragic scene where hundreds of people were eating chicken, Liu Yuan always had a sense of urgency in his heart.
Even if he leaves all the others aside and only leaves You Su who is still guarding the Demon Abyss in Yonghui Sea, it is enough for Liu Yuan to plan more, no matter in terms of strength or power... If he wants to liberate You Su from Zhanhai Tower, the demons must retreat or even be wiped out.
According to the official CG ending of the final battle, the demons only temporarily retreated back under the Eternal Dark Sea. Judging from Liu Yuan's meeting with He Qingmeng, the daughter of the Demon Emperor who had not appeared before, it was also a sign of their comeback.
This allows the goal to directly surpass the expansion pack of the current version and reach the next version that has not yet been released, or the next next version.
Perhaps the strength of the Tribulation Period is simply not enough... Liu Yuan's account in the game had already been trained to the highest level at the time. At that time, many players had already reached the maximum level, but a battle between humans and demons still required the participation of countless players.
It's impossible to defeat them relying on these NPCs alone.
Liu Yuan has always known that if the demons invaded at that time, he would still be at the Tribulation Crossing stage in the game and would not be able to play any role in the war. The human race would pay a more painful price, and there was even a chance that the demons would directly occupy the Upper Central Realm.
However, he had no intention of becoming a savior, but the paper wives he had been thinking about were among them... In the three months since he traveled through time, he avoided thinking about the future and only focused on the present.
However, Liu Yuan vaguely understood from Ling Yao's question what she placed her hopes on Jun Xuan.
The spiritual lines...what we pursue is the great way.
In the game "Shangyang", strategy is not the main gameplay, and not everyone is keen on spending a lot of energy on conquering these characters, and even abandoning all other gameplay because of it.
After all, an internet-addicted teenager like Liu Yuan, who was so obsessed with games that he worked so hard and forgot to eat and sleep, would usually be hospitalized after a few months. But he was different - he died instantly.
...Liu Yuan always felt that his attire was not very authentic, but he had no idea why, so he never pursued it.
However, a big part of the reason why these characters are so difficult to conquer is because their lives are not just about dating. Everyone has their own ideas. If you don't follow their ideas and find the key point, it will be like a solid wall that you can't break through.
For example, Shen Sifan, she is not as "Sifan" as her name suggests, but a steely straight woman. It was because Liu Yuan accidentally provoked a fight with her and won again, which aroused her competitive spirit, and gradually turned their relationship into one of both enemy and friend and even love.
As for Ling Yao, there is no doubt that as the next head of Yuxu Taoist sect, what she should pursue in her heart is the great Dao. However, unlike Shen Sifan, she is the one who "wants to be a mortal", with a gentle girlish heart that cannot be locked up by the strict rules and regulations... It has been hidden under her cold appearance since the year she went up the mountain.
Her hope is to cook soup for a man with her bare hands, or even be kept as a wife by a man in a luxurious house.
However, Liu Yuan suddenly realized now that when her own wishes conflicted with the expectations of Taoism over the years, where would Ling Yao place the expectations of Taoism for her?
Of course, she would give it to the man who could turn her into a "little woman". Currently, there was only one such man, named Liu Yuan, Liu Junxuan——
She wanted Liu Junxuan to get the avenue for her.
These words, which seemed like they were used by the woman to spur him on, were actually forcing him to go higher. Overcoming the tribulation was not enough, and achieving Mahayana was not enough. He had to subdue everyone, and no one dared to speak out when he said one word. Only in this way could he succeed, and at this time, he would be the person closest to the Tao.
This is why Ling Yao doesn’t care how many women he has.
To love him is to love the Tao.
The two are so mixed together that she herself may not be able to tell them apart...
With his back resting on the soft and fragrant beauty, Liu Yuan strangely felt the ambitions that this "little woman" had placed on him.
Seeing that he was silent for a long time and almost distracted, Xiahou Cenyi couldn't help but wave her hand in front of his eyes: "Hey, wake up... Aren't they just a bunch of women? Why are you so entangled? If anyone dares to object, I can just beat them up with one punch. If you don't want to do it, I can do it for you. It just so happens that I'm itching to do it recently."
Liu Yuan came back to his senses and heard that her words coincided with his own thoughts. Thinking of the way the Grand Elder punched a kid, he couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, yes, as long as my cultivation is high enough, there is no need for Senior Sister to do anything. If I can't pass the tribulation, I can go to Mahayana. If I can't reach Mahayana, I can go higher. By then, hundreds of people will be in my pocket and no one will dare to say a word."
He took the opportunity to give his answer, his tone and eyes were firm.
Xiahou Cenyi looked at him and said with a sigh: "You were so scared just now... but now you are smiling calmly, little man, I can't see through you."
She held her chin up seriously and suddenly looked at Ling Yao.
"This is a witch from Yuxu Dao Sect. City Lord Duan has given birth to a child that is not as big as this one..."
The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Liu Yuan cried out that something was wrong. Ling Yao hated it the most when others brought this up. Then suddenly someone turned him over and everything in front of his eyes went dark.
"?"
"???!!!"
Chapter 244 Huh?
"Uuuuuuu..."
Liu Yuan's hands were still tied together, making it very inconvenient for him to move, and he couldn't struggle either. He buried his head in the sweet warmth of the place, and after a few movements, he felt that he could hardly breathe.
His nose was filled with the rich sandalwood scent steamed up by body temperature, or rather, the sandalwood on the lapels was originally elegant and quiet, but when ironed by Ling Yao's warm body, it turned into a strong fragrance like orchid and musk. At this moment, Liu's mind went blank, as if only a ball of paste was left.
Who am I? Where am I? What is this in front of me?
Liu Yuan gradually realized that his tied hands were resting on Ling Yao's body, and he subconsciously tried to support himself. This was purely an act of self-rescue because he was almost suffocated.
To be honest, this feeling of super fast suffocation was something that even Duan Lanruo had never experienced before... There wasn't even a single gap!
Liu Yuan's thoughts were in a mess, and his consciousness began to drift away.
Ah, she really wants to suffocate me to death!
"Um!"
Liu Yuan felt the hand caressing the back of his head, and his breathing became increasingly difficult. He heard Ling Yao's voice coming from above: "Red face, white bones, pink skull, it's just skin, how can there be a distinction between low and high? Senior is in the stage of transcending tribulation, has a high level of cultivation, and has experienced a long time, don't you even understand this? Taking a step back, if he likes and is happy, this skin is a thousand times correct, how can it be called low, right, Senior Xiahou."
Although her tone was calm, Liu Yuan could feel the raging anger in her chest rising and falling violently. It was obvious that she still cared about it very much.
well said!
As expected, he is the next candidate for Yuxu's chief. He is highly accomplished in Taoism, and his teachings are profound. He focuses on the sublimation of a theme, but could you please let him go before you speak?
Xiahou Cenyi's voice came with a smile: "Yuxu's true teachings are indeed powerful, and the young are formidable. I heard that you became famous for your swordsmanship, but your Taoism is the best. I didn't expect that your physical skills are even better... Even this part of the body can be used to kill people. Hey, be careful not to suffocate people to death!"
“Mmmm! (Help!)”
Liu Yuan showed his presence at the right moment to show that he was really about to be suffocated.
Ling Yao paused and subconsciously loosened his hand. Liu Yuan quickly struggled up, took a deep breath of air, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his life was saved.
Xiahou Cenyi added: "But... I have lived for so many years, but I have never seen anything like this. I didn't expect to see it in Taoist Master Yuxu, who is said by everyone to be as cold as cold smoke."
She blinked.
Although Liu Yuan knew that Xiahou Cenyi was always outspoken and had no taboos, and compared with other people in the Tribulation Crossing period, he did not seem like a senior master at all. Instead, he was like a child who loved playing pranks and had a playful nature.
But you won't have the chance to hear such vulgar language in the game.
What's more, the content is about Ling Yao... Just this one sentence, when combined with the figure of Ling Yao who always wears a simple black Taoist robe and has a cold and ethereal temperament, is almost equivalent to the identity of the head of Yuxu Sect, which is really exciting.
Although Liu Yuan is a strategy player and knows the hidden attributes of Ling Yao through his collection of CG illustrations, he does not know this explosive thing... After all, "Shangyang" is a game for all ages, and swear words will be blocked, not to mention this kind of ghs content. It is already a great thing for the illustrations to touch the edge.
This is another reason why there are relatively few strategy parties in the game. You spend a lot of energy to conquer the character, but in the end you don’t get much of the expected reward.
In the eyes of other players, Ling Yao is just a beautiful woman with a cold temperament and a figure that can only be described as curvy.
Liu Yuan, with the CG picture in his hand, even though he couldn't guess Ling Yao's thoughts, one thing was beyond doubt.
The eldest senior sister of the Danqing Hall of the Yuxu Taoist sect, who holds the true teachings of the sect, strictly abides by the rules and regulations, is devoted to Taoism, and is a Taoist fairy who does not care about worldly affairs. She is the genuine product...H.
And because of this, I have been troubled since my teenage years until now.
Xiahou Cenyi's words were like a knife piercing the heart and drawing blood, and they became even worse. Although he did not say any obscene words, his words were saying "You are really obscene."
Ling Yao was silent for a while. Liu Yuan, who was breathing hard, was pushed back again: "Um...Ah? Help! Senior Sister Yuxu killed someone!"
"Xiahou Cenyi! Why are you just watching!"
.
.
After the few people had tidied their appearance, Ling Yao resumed his serious "interrogation" posture. The cabin fell into silence for a while, with only the sound of the river waves outside continuing.
"Well, you just said... So you already knew who Zhiying was... Ah." Liu Yuan stuttered and tried to ease the atmosphere and change the subject.
Xiahou Cenyi said with a smile: "What is it? Your little lover?"
The Grand Elder asked as if he knew the answer but still wanted to know the answer.
Liu Yuan's mind flashed back to the fleeting gentle smile of the figure in Emperor Wu's tomb. He coughed, shook his head and said, "She is my daughter, the daughter of Vihara and I."
Ling Yao's face still had a trace of blush, she pursed her lips, her hands clutching her collar unconsciously, and upon hearing this, she turned her head, looked at Liu Yuan, and said lightly: "Although her hiding method is powerful, it can't be hidden from me, and I think it can't be hidden from Shen Sifan either. She looks very similar to Vihuan Luo, but because of their very different temperaments and ages, they look very different, and they are connected with your aura, so naturally she can only be your daughter... I really don't know what you have been doing all these years, even that witch has been captured."
Xiahou Cenyi snorted, and glanced at Liu Yuan with a charming look in his eyes: "The Grand Elder of Tianbao Pavilion has been captured by this kid, so what else is impossible?"
It seems that the difficulty of defeating you is much easier than that of defeating Vihara.
Ling Yao glanced at her sideways but didn't say anything.
Although she was not afraid of this old senior, she could not resist the great skill of the Grand Elder in playing pranks.
Liu Yuan felt something was wrong, and asked Xiahou Cenyi, "Then what's going on with your fate?"
Xiahou Cenyi took out the murderous sword and held it horizontally: "Well, I can't figure out much, but the final solution seems to fall on this sword."
So that's why she simply turned into a sword spirit?
Liu Yuan suddenly realized and felt complicated. She also knew that the owner of the sword was Jun Xuan, so she sent the sword to him and gave him a big "surprise" at the same time.
I really don't know whether to say that she is very thorough in her calculations, or that she loves to scare people so much that she doesn't even care about her own fate.
Chapter 245 Blushing
According to the original plot, Xiahou Cenyi resolved her calamity by herself. The specific circumstances were not mentioned in detail. It was just that hundreds of years later, the supreme elder who was at the peak of the tribulation period broke out when Tianbao Pavilion was besieged, and he was as powerful as thunder and solved all those who had objections.
Such an important character is praised highly but neglected. Players on the forum unanimously believe that there will be a subsequent plot to unfold.
But I didn't expect it to be related to Liu Yuan's weapon...
However, Liu Yuan felt that this was probably the butterfly effect, because this sword was just an ordinary exhibit in Tianbao Pavilion when Xiahou was undergoing the tribulation. It didn't make sense that it was the cause of Xiahou Cenyi's tribulation.
The greater possibility is that because of Liu Yuan's time travel, his murderous heart and courage were repaired ahead of time, and he awakened in the world, which caused a chain reaction... But what is the connection between Xiahou Cenyi and this mysterious evil sword?
Since it was a matter of life and death, Xiahou Cenyi had no reason to lie to Liu Yuan. She said that what she calculated was not much, and it was probably true... Even the Supreme Elder had no way of knowing where the calamity would fall, which showed how dangerous it was.
Or, Xiahou thought that Liu Yuan’s current ability was not enough to solve the problem, so he chose to conceal it, so that he would not be involved in the trouble.
"What Ling Yao said is indeed correct. If I can't be stronger than them, several times or even dozens of times stronger, there is really no way I can safely take them into my harem... Moreover, they are too involved with me, and the possibility of plot changes has greatly increased. If you think about it carefully, if there is any danger, it is probably because of me. I must bear this responsibility."
Liu Yuan pondered secretly in his heart and couldn't help frowning, but the origin of the Killing Heart and Evil Heart was mysterious, and the official weapon introduction did not explain it clearly. It seemed that when it first appeared in the world, it was already in a state of controlling people to do evil, creating a demon figure who was hostile to the whole world called the Blood Demon Lord.
But this person was not the first one to be controlled by the Killing Heart and Evil Fear. Before that, there were already countless wronged souls locked in the Killing Heart and Evil Fear. It was only after the Blood-Evil Demon Lord became famous that the Killing Heart and Evil Fear also entered the vision of other people and gradually became famous.
Later, the previous sword master before Liu Yuan was an upright immortal named Yunyin Zhenren. After he went crazy and killed almost all of his disciples, he finally woke up for a moment because of his profound Taoism. He went completely insane and destroyed his own dantian, dying together with the sword spirit that had been nurtured by the evil sword.
The evil sword became blunt and had been lost for who knows how many years. It was finally collected by Tianbao Pavilion and put away.
It's really hard to trace the origin of this sword...
We can only start from Xiahou - Liu Yuan just thought so, turned his head to look at Xiahou Cenyi, the latter was still looking at him, when their eyes met, they both subconsciously looked away.
Then they were all stunned again - why did I look away?
Liu Yuan subconsciously glanced at Ling Yao again and found that she had indeed been looking at him. He immediately understood that when he was frowning and thinking just now, these two people were looking at him quietly.
Although he was scolded by Ling Yao and teased by Xiahou, these two women who were well-known and influential wherever they went still regarded him as their backbone.
They were waiting for him to make up his mind, so they naturally wouldn't interrupt his thinking.
Liu Yuan wanted to ask Xiahou about the sword, but the Supreme Elder smiled and pushed the sword to him and placed it next to him.
"My fate as an aunt does not need your concern for a little man who has not yet recovered his cultivation. It is better to solve your own problem first."
She didn't want to tell me... Xiahou Cenyi still chose to split her soul when she was undergoing the tribulation. In fact, it was already a sign of danger, and she might not be sure.
When a cultivator reaches the tribulation stage, he must go through the five tribulations of "birth, old age, sickness, death and suffering", plus the three disasters of "thunder, wind and fire", before he can reach the next level and achieve Mahayana.
During the process, a heart demon tribulation occurred simultaneously, which was particularly severe when going through five tribulations. Xiahou Cenyi's cultivation at this time was at the fifth level of tribulation, which happened to be the "bitter" tribulation he was going through.
To seek but not to obtain... is suffering.
Liu Yuan always felt that this disaster had something to do with him, but he couldn't understand why it fell on him with such a murderous heart and evil courage.
But since Xiahou didn't want to tell him, it would probably not be a good idea for him to ask further.
In the game it is just a matter of completing tasks, clicking buttons and waiting for upgrade progress, but here it is a real matter of life and death. If you are not careful and go astray, your spiritual faith may collapse.
If there was nothing wrong in the first place, and he asked a few more questions and made Xiahou worried, which led to a mental disaster, it would be a waste of time and effort.
Liu Yuan's thoughts were fleeting. He looked down at his bound hands, then looked at Ling Yao and said, "My problem is a long story..."
