t know that Ying Yuan Yu “likes” or rather “needs” her.

    Luan Qing Xiao narrowed her eyes and tentatively probed.
“Zhen'er likes you? What a joke! How could Zhen'er like a man who thinks of her as a furnace! Ying Yuan Yu, are you here today to save the person you like…
… or to save a furnace?”

    Ying Yuan Yu was shocked.

    Luan Qing Xiao saw Ying Yuan Yu's expression and knew she wasn’t wrong.
Nie Zhen'er and her along with Ying Yuan Yu entered the Snowy Gale Secret Realm together.
It was impossible that only she and Nie Zhen'er stray into the Maze of Illusions.
From the current situation, the illusion this time may not only come from Nie Zhen'er's memory and desire/hope, but probably also mixed with Ying Yuan Yu's.

    Ying Yuan Yu retorted angrily.
“Luan Qing Xiao, you’re talking nonsense! I like Zhen'er, how could I treat her as a furnace!”

    “You’re ruffled, I must have hit it right on?” Luan Qing Xiao continued to irritate him calmly.

    “You shut up!”

    Luan Qing Xiao looked back at the cultivators who were still drinking behind her.
Next, she stepped back a little, luring Ying Yuan Yu to move forward.

    Ying Yuan Yu moved forward to a certain position and then suddenly stopped.
No matter how much Luan Qing Xiao provoked him, he wouldn’t take a step forward.

    “Why aren’t you coming in?” Luan Qing Xiao asked with a smile.


    Ying Yuan Yu's hand holding the long sword trembled,  “You come out, let's fight to the death match.
The person who wins will marry Zhen'er!”

    “Zhen'er was originally mine to begin with, why should I fight you?” Luan Qing Xiao was unmoved.

    Nie Zhen’er and Ying Yuan Yu’s illusions have merged in some places.
They are both the protagonists in their illusions.
They have their own worldview and things they recognize as “facts”, but they can’t go to the regions where their illusions don’t overlap, such as the crowd toasting behind Luan Qing Xiao.

    The “liveliness” that Nie Zhen'er wanted, Ying Yuan Yu, an “outsider” can not approach each other, let alone interact.

    “Ying Yuan Yu, why don't you dare to come over? Or… … is it because you can't come here at all!” Luan Qing Xiao stared at him aloofly.
“You know that this is an illusion and Nie Zhen'er has nothing to do with you.
Having only met Zhen'er one time and didn't even say a word to Zhen'er, where did you get the courage to say that Zhen'er likes you? He, shameful boasting.”

    Ying Yuan Yu’s trembled all over in anger.
“No, you’re lying! What illusion, what nothing to do with me! Zhen'er and I are mutually in love, we are in love with each other…”

    His voice became lower and lower.

    While Luan Qing Xiao was reluctant to break Nie Zhen'er's beautiful fantasy, she wouldn’t be as polite to Yuan Yu.

    When Ying Yuan Yu was still Bai Li Yuan Yu, he had entered the Snowy Gale Secret Realm a whole lot more times than her.
It was impossible for him to not have encountered the Maze of Illusions before.

    The reason why Ying Yuan Yu was “trapped” this time has nothing to do with his state of mind.

    Seeing Nie Zhen'er outside the realm, even if only one glance was enough to shake Bai Li Yuan Yu's heart.

    Luan Qing Xiao directly burst Ying Yuan Yu's fantasy.
As long as it brought Ying Yuan Yu’s attention, the illusion in front of him would naturally disappear.

    Sure enough, after a while, Ying Yuan Yu's face changed drastically.
The handsome white clothes on his body returned to the blue clothes he wore when he came in.

    He took a step forward and hurriedly walked to Luan Qing Xiao, explaining, “Junior Sister Qing Xiao, what happened just now was definitely not what you thought it was.
I only saw Nie Zhen'er for the first time today.
How could I like her? It must have been the Maze of Illusions just now, it had nothing to do with me.”

    Luan Qing Xiao gave him a cold look.
“The Maze of Illusions only amplifies people's desires/hope, it can’t create an illusion out of nowhere.
I didn’t expect Senior Brother Bai Li to be quite the player.
On one hand, he said to me that he would become my Dao companion, while on the other hand, he’s secretly lusting after my disciple.”

 

    Ying Yuan Yu gritted his teeth.
Suddenly, he proclaimed in an awe-inspiring righteousness.
“Sister Qing Xiao, I know you won’t believe me this time no matter how I explain it.
However I still want to say that after I told you my true identity, I treated you as my own person.
Think about it, if I didn’t trust you, why would I tell you about me possessing this body? What happened this time was really a misunderstanding.
It is difficult to guarantee that the Maze of Illusions won’t make a mistake.
Don’t you really not trust me that much and believe I cared about a furnace more than you?”

    Ying Yuan Yu's tone was sincere and affectionate to the point where Luan Qing Xiao wanted to award him an Oscar for being the Best Male Actor.

    “Right now, I just want to leave the Maze of Illusions.
We can talk about it later after we escape.” Luan Qing Xiao pursed her lips and uttered lightly.

    Ying Yuan Yu's eyes lit up since he thought Luan Qing Xiao was convinced by what he said.
Internally, he was very smug.

    Woman ah, so easily deceived.

    Especially women who love him.
Even if they have a high cultivation level, they still tend to be more sentimental.

    “Okay, whatever Junior Sister Xiao wants.” Ying Yuan Yu said earnestly.

    Luan Qing Xiao ignored him.

    While Ying Yuan Yu's illusion was broken, it had no effect on Nie Zhen'er's illusion.

    Luan Qing Xiao responded to Yuan Yu, “Senior Brother Bai Li wait here for me, I'll go find Zhen'er.”

    Ying Yuan Yu promised, “I won’t go anywhere.”

    Luan Qing Xiao resisted the greasy feeling in her heart and started to walk outside.

    At this moment, Nie Zhen'er's figure walked in from outside.

    Wearing an exquisite red wedding gown, Nie Zhen’er looked at Luan Qing Xiao and then looked at Ying Yuan Yu.
Standing at the gate, her expression was heartbroken.
“Is this man the reason why Mistress hasn’t returned?”

    “No.” Luan Qing Xiao immediately denied her statement, “Zhen’er, listen to me…”

    “Mistress,” Nie Zhen'er shook her head and interrupted Luan Qing Xiao, crying, “Mistress, don't like him, alright? You wanted to marry me, you said you wanted to marry me.”

    The gaze Ying Yuan Yu’ had towards Nie Zhen'er flashed in shock.
She-she actually thought of Luan Qing Xiao that way!

    Ying Yuan Yu has a complicated expression.
How could she like Luan Qing Xiao, that cold woman? She clearly deserves a better person.
If she likes him, he will definitely be able to care for and spoil her every day.
That is something Luan Qing Xiao surely won’t be able to do.

    The lively scene behind Luan Qing Xiao gradually calmed down with Nie Zhen'er's sorrowful words.
At this moment, everyone was watching them.

    Luan Qing Xiao remained still and waved to Nie Zhen'er.
“Zhen'er, come to Mistress.”

    The place where she stood now is the intersection between Ying Yuan Yu’s and Nie Zhen'er's illusions.
It was also the only flaw in Nie Zhen'er's illusion.

    As long as Nie Zhen'er came over, the illusion could be cracked immediately.

    “Zhen’er, come here.”
