Chapter 104: Crying Heartbroken
As for Xiao Changqing's two concubines, they were a pair of sisters. This was a well-known fact in Nanshanfang and a beautiful story.
Zhou Yun'e naturally also knew that the female neighbor who lived next door to her and Xiao Changqing had become Xiao Changqing's bedmate.
So over the years, in addition to the regret in her heart, Zhou Yun'e seemed to have gone a little crazy.
She believed in her heart that when they were in the shantytown, Lin Ziyu might have had an affair with Xiao Changqing!
Even if she leaves Xiao Changqing, it is very likely that Lin Ziyu is behind it!
If it wasn't for Lin Ziyu, maybe she wouldn't be so blind as to fall for Hu Youquan and choose to leave Xiao Changqing who had unlimited potential. After all, Xiao Changqing accompanied her to the immortal world, and in the secular world he was the most dazzling genius in the world. How could he always be in the ordinary world in the immortal world?
Under normal circumstances, she would not be obsessed, nor would she give up the relationship of more than ten years.
All these speculations are not entirely due to her own madness and paranoia, but do have certain logic and implications.
Thinking back to the past, ever since Lin Ziyu moved in next door to them, she remembered that Xiao Changqing had mentioned this beautiful female neighbor several times.
Sometimes when she needed to buy some spiritual food, wanted to wear robes, or wanted to live in a high-level cave, she would "encourage" Xiao Changqing to work hard to earn more spiritual stones. When Xiao Changqing couldn't earn spiritual stones, he would use Lin Ziyu as a shield.
They said that Lin Ziyu next door was a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, but he was willing to live in a shanty town and was more frugal than them. He never wore a robe, never bought spiritual food, and lived frugally.
For this, Zhou Yun'e scolded Xiao Changqing several times, and angrily said that if Xiao Changqing felt that Lin Ziyu was good, he should go and live with Lin Ziyu, not her...
Although Xiao Changqing would take the initiative to apologize every time, but now thinking about it, was it Lin Ziyu who had secretly instigated all this to sow discord between her and Xiao Changqing?
These two people do not have a normal relationship.
Think about it, if Lin Ziyu was so frugal at the beginning, why did Lin Ziyu lend money to Xiao Changqing when he decided to learn to draw talismans and needed spiritual food to buy materials?
It's obvious that this woman is very scheming!
She had long been eyeing Xiao Changqing and was secretly plotting against him. She was wrong to leave Xiao Changqing, but it was not entirely her fault!
Thinking of these past events, Zhou Yun'e became more justified and even more disgusted with Lin Ziyu, who was glamorous and looked like a fairy.
This woman stole the glorious life that should have belonged to her!
The robes, bracelets, and hairpins she wore were the treatment she deserved! Instead of wearing a worthless mundane dress like she was now!
"Let me in. Do you think you have the right to stop me? Don't forget who you used to be."
Zhou Yun'e felt more justified as she thought so.
When she sees Xiao Changqing later, she will naturally beg for forgiveness in a humble manner, abandoning all her reserve and self-esteem. But facing Lin Ziyu, the "mistress" who stole what should have been her perfect life, she feels that she has the right to be justified.
However, her expression made Lin Ziyu, who was inexplicably timid and embarrassed, come to her senses and become more determined: "Why don't I have the right to stop you? This is the master's cave, I am the master's concubine, usually in charge of the cave for the master, and I have the right to stop anyone who wants to break into the cave. Even if the head of the Cao family comes, I am still qualified!"
If Zhou Yun'e spoke nicely and lowered her attitude, Lin Ziyu might still speak to her in a nice tone.
Although she would not be allowed in, at least she could be given superficial respect.
But since Zhou Yun'e didn't know how to speak properly and dared to act condescending in front of her, she didn't need to be polite.
"You are just a concubine. What qualifications do you have to be so arrogant here? Don't forget what my identity was back then. If you hadn't been plotting secretly, Changqing and I would still be Taoist companions! Shouldn't you feel ashamed?" Zhou Yun'e couldn't help but feel jealous and angry, and scolded and ridiculed.
"I'm using conspiracy and tricks in secret?" Lin Ziyu was angry and amused when he heard it.
Zhou Yun'e could actually put the blame on her? She thought that she was the one who caused her and her master to part ways?
If she really had foresight and discovered early on that her master had extraordinary potential and could have achieved what he has today, she might indeed have used some improper means.
But the key point is that she was very stupid at first and did not realize the extraordinaryness of her master!
If she had discovered it earlier and seized the opportunity, she would not be a concubine now...
However, Lin Ziyu did not complain about her fate. She was so mediocre in talent that she was lucky enough to become the master's concubine. It was a high marriage and she did not dare to expect more.
"The master won't see you. It's no use trying to pester him. Go away. I don't want to make things too ugly." Lin Ziyu said.
At this moment, she calmed down instead. The fact that Zhou Yun'e could say such words and have such thoughts today meant that apart from being beautiful, she had nothing else to her.
Under normal circumstances, when Zhou Yun'e came to visit, no matter what her master thought or how he decided, she should report to him first.
But Lin Ziyu was going to act on her own today and drive Zhou Yun'e away without reporting. Because in her opinion, this woman would never have any chance of being liked by the master again. If she reported, it would only make the master feel bad and make her look incompetent and without any opinion.
and……
Based on Lin Ziyu's partial understanding of the master's strength, even though the master did not come out, he should have been able to sense the situation outside from inside the cave.
Since the master did not show up and did not send her any orders, it meant that she had to make her own decision.
Although Lin Ziyu is soft-hearted by nature, she is still smart.
"You...what gives you the right to chase me away?" Zhou Yun'e was so angry that she simply ignored Lin Ziyu and rushed into the cave regardless of anything.
boom!
Lin Ziyu's face turned cold. He used his magic power to activate his robe and waved it casually. A force that terrified Zhou Yun'e came towards her like a tidal wave, and directly blasted her back more than ten meters.
Lin Ziyu has already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining. In addition to her robes and various magical instruments, if we count the second-level talismans bestowed by Xiao Changqing, Lin Ziyu's combat power is enough to rank among the top ten in Nanshanfang.
However, Zhou Yun'e was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and her strength was far weaker than Lin Ziyu's.
If Lin Ziyu hadn't shown mercy, she would have been seriously injured and vomited blood instead of being simply blown back.
But even so, Zhou Yun'e's face turned red, and it was unclear whether she was hurt or angry.
Perhaps, she thought of a similar scene that happened more than ten years ago when she resolutely followed Hu Youquan away.
However, it was Xiao Changqing who was in a miserable state at first, but now it is her.
"Go quickly, or I won't be polite." Lin Ziyu said coldly.
"You...you..." Zhou Yun'e's breathing was disordered and she was gasping for breath. She wanted to rush in, but when she saw Lin Ziyu's powerful magic power fluctuations that far surpassed hers, she had to stop.
Words could not describe how frustrated she felt at that moment.
She was ready to lose face today, and was also ready to abandon her self-esteem and even kneel down to ask Xiao Changqing to take her in, even if it meant sympathizing with her for the sake of their relationship over the past ten years! No matter what, she had also accompanied Xiao Changqing in the shantytown and suffered for more than ten years.
Although Xiao Changqing had been frugal and had given her all the spiritual stones and spiritual sands during those ten years, and Xiao Changqing sometimes had to work three part-time jobs while she didn't have to do anything, in the end, she found a new employer without Xiao Changqing's knowledge and left without hesitation...
But putting aside the facts, isn't she pitiful? Xiao Changqing, and this Lin Ziyu, are they completely innocent?
"Xiao Changqing, come out! I know you are here! Come out and see me, I have something to tell you! Come out!"
Endless grievances, regrets, shame and anger all came to her mind at this moment, causing Zhou Yun'e to completely collapse emotionally.
She didn't dare to rush in again, so she had to scream loudly, regardless of the most basic decency or her former pride.
"Changqing, I was wrong! I'm sorry! Do you know how I've been through these years? I've been in extreme pain and regret every day! It was me who was bewildered and left you. Can you come out and see me? I have no complaints if you want to beat me or kill me. Just let me see you again, okay?"
"I have already paid for my mistakes. Please don't be so cold-blooded and watch me die without helping me, okay? We have so many beautiful pasts and more than ten years of love between us... Please, let me come back to you, okay?"
Zhou Yun'e kept shouting, and in the end she could no longer control her emotions, tears streaming down her face. She no longer had the proud look of an iceberg beauty, but only pitiful tears in the rain.
Whether it was due to grief or other reasons, she seemed to have used up all her strength and could not even stand, so she collapsed to her knees on the ground.
Zhou Yun'e looked at the huge Jiayi Cave with tears in her eyes, and murmured and cried: "Yun'e is wrong, Yun'e really knows that I am wrong! If you don't come out to see me today, I can only die here with you..."
At this point, the bottom line she had always held on to in her heart had been completely shattered.
Her hysteria was not so much because she knew she was wrong, but rather because she was forced into a desperate situation.
More than half a year ago, when the war had just begun, Hu Youquan, who had leveraged to buy multiple houses, went bankrupt and was visited by creditors every day to collect debts.
At that time, Zhou Yun'e's life fell into a slump and her life was even worse than when she was living in the shantytown.
All the valuables in his hands were taken away by creditors to pay off debts. At that time, Hu Youquan was willing to be cuckolded and let Zhou Yun'e turn around and ask Xiao Changqing for help.
But Zhou Yun'e refused, because that was Hu Youquan's debt, and it was Hu Youquan who was in dire straits, but she could still barely make ends meet.
Even though Hu Youquan begged and persuaded her many times, she was unwilling to endure the humiliation for the other party.
In essence, she is such a selfish woman.
If it weren't for her special identity, it would have been impossible for her to find other buyers in Nanshanfang, and no cultivator would have dared to take her in. She would probably have abandoned Hu Youquan and sought another way out.
Nowadays, all the properties owned by Hu Youquan have been forcibly taken away by his creditors, and he is still insolvent and owes a large amount of spirit stones.
Hu Youquan, who was desperate, was forced by his creditors to go to the front line to fight against the evil cultivators and act as a member of the death squad.
He is also in the middle stage of Qi Refining. If he dares to fight and can kill the enemy on the front line and gain credit, he can still earn a lot of spirit stones.
This was the only way he could pay off his debts.
Before going to the battlefield, Hu Youquan had a complete falling out with Zhou Yun'e. He cursed her harshly, saying that she was a jinx and that it was all her fault that he was in this situation. He also accused her of being pretentious and having a bad face at this time, and refusing to ask Xiao Changqing for help... In short, he said all kinds of unpleasant words, venting all his accumulated resentment.
Then, Hu Youquan went to the battlefield and never came back.
Died at the hands of evil cultivators.
The pension after his death was ruthlessly taken away by his creditors, and not a single grain of spiritual sand was left for Zhou Yun'e.
The matter did not end here. Hu Youquan died, but his debt had not been paid off and he still owed a sum of spirit stones.
In the end, the creditors had no choice but to target Zhou Yun'e and ask her to pay off Hu Youquan's debts.
Zhou Yun'e said that she didn't have it, and that she had nothing to do with Hu Youquan. She didn't borrow the spiritual stones, so she had no obligation to pay back Hu Youquan.
But the creditors, who only recognized spirit stones and not people, would not listen and forced Zhou Yun'e to take over Hu Youquan's debt, otherwise she would be rude.
Zhou Yun'e's cultivation level is at the fourth level of Qi Refining, which is not the lowest level in Nanshanfang. But how can she pay back such a large amount of low-grade spirit stones?
The only way for her to change is to follow Hu Youquan and go to the front line to fight against the evil cultivators.
This means that the mortality rate is over 50%...
As a result, the bottom line that Zhou Yun'e had always insisted on when Hu Youquan was at his wit's end finally loosened.
She didn't want to go to the front line and die like this.
She is only in her early forties and not even halfway through her life. Because of her cultivation, she is still beautiful and looks like she is in her twenties... How could she die like this?
She has come to the world of immortal cultivation, but has not yet achieved her goals and ambitions, and has not yet witnessed the magnificence and splendor of the world of immortal cultivation. How can she give up?
After several days of painful decision-making, she decided to ignore it, give it one last try, and come to find Xiao Changqing.
As long as Xiao Changqing can forgive her and accept her again, her life will be back on track and she can get everything she wants!
The splendid side of the world of immortal cultivation will unfold before her eyes.
As for those creditors who were inhumane in collecting debts, they would be frightened by her and would no longer dare to force her. They would only kowtow, admit their mistakes, and beg her for mercy!
All the grievances she had suffered over the years could be made up for.
In these beautiful fantasies, Zhou Yun'e came to Cave No. 1 and cried heartbreakingly.
Admitting mistakes may not be sincere, and she does not think she has done much wrong.
But her emotions at this moment were not fake.
If Xiao Changqing refuses to forgive her, take her in or help her, then she will wait here until she dies!
Because she had nowhere else to go.
