Chapter 186: The Obsessive Love Fool in Xianxia (48)

"Why didn't you use the Soulbond Jade?"

In the silence, Tang Qing suddenly heard Si Yin's voice.

The man must have used some special method to materialize out of nowhere in this dungeon.

"You know I would come looking for you."

Looking at Tang Qing before him, Si Yin felt a stabbing pain in his chest.

She was someone he had held dear, and everything had been arranged perfectly—if only she had been willing to stay with him in the Demon Realm...

"Come back with me."

Another invitation, but Tang Qing only huddled in the corner, unwilling to speak.

Again, this reaction!

Whenever it involved Bai Mufeng, the Little Pervert became utterly irrational! Si Yin couldn’t understand—what did Tang Qing even want, staying here when death was certain in three days?

He wanted nothing more than to rush forward and crack open her skull to see what nonsense was inside!

"Why the hell are you still staying here?"

"Are you waiting to be executed by Bai Mufeng yourself? Didn’t you say it yourself—being pierced through the chest by the Army Breaker Sword is agonizing..."

Si Yin demanded impatiently, his gaze fixed on the blockhead before him.

Meanwhile, the system quietly reported in Tang Qing’s mind: "Tang Qing: Si Yin’s Love Points have reached 98. Only one point away."

The Little Devil truly loved Tang Qing—willing to give everything to please her, willing to rescue her even in such dire circumstances...

But those last few Love Points always seemed just out of reach, no matter how close they got.

Hearing the system’s report, Tang Qing lowered her eyes slightly. Still one point short?

Her gaze swept across the dank, shadowy dungeon, and a plan took shape in her mind.

"This time... it’s different."

Breaking the silence, Tang Qing suddenly spoke. "Si Yin, this time... he’s different now."

Changed?

Bai Mufeng?

Before Si Yin could ponder further, Tang Qing continued, "He actually publicly knelt."

"Si Yin, I’ve never seen Senior Brother like this before..."

That proud, noble figure who had once stood so high—the figure she’d chased countless times—had finally crashed from his pedestal and knelt before her.

"He wanted to save me."

Under Si Yin’s bewildered gaze, Tang Qing whispered, "Can I... assume he has feelings for me?"

"Si Yin, do you think... Senior Brother feels that way?"

How should I know!

Why are you asking me!

In that moment, Si Yin could only feel Tang Qing's cruelty. She could interpret affection from a single gesture of Bai Mufeng, yet never noticed his own feelings…

He had done so much, hinted countless times.

Yet she felt nothing…

Closing his eyes, the stabbing pain in his chest flared again, prickling like needles.

The little devil’s voice grew hollow as he reminded Tang Qing once more, “He follows the Heartless Way…”

Whether Bai Mufeng had affection or not, he was doomed to tragedy.

But Tang Qing seemed spellbound, murmuring, “I told you… I came here to fulfill his Heartless Way…”

Si Yin suddenly understood, his voice went sharp.

“What do you mean?!”

“Tang Qing, was this deliberate?”

Tang Qing remained silent, her silence said everything.

Before arriving, Si Yin had thought the Little Pervert was consumed by bloodlust. Now, it was clear—she had planned this.

Or rather, when Bai Mufeng knelt, something in her changed.

If Bai Mufeng truly held affection for her, then all those years chasing him wouldn’t be in vain…

Even if she became a stepping stone for his path, Tang Qing would accept it.

She was willing.

She wanted a reason—a reason for Bai Mufeng to kill her. That was why she had dared to slay the elder of Xingfa Hall in public!

Si Yin stumbled back at the realization.

“Tang Qing… why?”

Like all the pain you endured chasing Bai Mufeng, why couldn’t you turn and see me?

The white robes he'd worn deliberately now felt like a mockery, mocking him cruelly.

The one he had gone through hell to save… was already ready to die.

No wonder Tang Qing hadn’t shattered the bonding jade—she had made up her mind.

To die by the Army Breaker Sword, beneath Bai Mufeng’s Heartless Way… She meant to help him complete his path!

Perhaps provoked by her words, the 98 Love Points spiked—exactly as the system wanted.

“It's topped out! Si Yin’s Love Points are maxed!”

The little devil’s Love Points had climbed fast at first, but the final few had hovered stubbornly at 99.

Under Tang Qing's deliberate provocation, it finally came to fruition at this moment.

As if not hearing the system's report, Tang Qing remained silent, curled up in the corner of the dungeon, offering no argument, making no struggle.

"Just because Bai Mufeng knelt for you..."

The little devil studied her, his eyes growing steadily dimmer. "Was it worth it?"

This was the same question he had asked back when they'd scaled the ice cliffs for Blue Ice Grass.

Whether then or now, Si Yin faced Tang Qing's stubborn gaze.

Nine illusions—he'd thought the Little Pervert had suffered enough...

Yet, with just one gesture from Bai Mufeng, she still went rushing back like a moth to flame.

"Si Yin, you should leave."

Angling her body to avoid Si Yin's scrutiny, Tang Qing said quietly, "I've made up my mind."

In the suffocating silence, Si Yin stared at Tang Qing for a long time.

Finally... his figure dissolved into nothingness.

System: "The little devil is gone..."

"Love Points are maxed. Why do I feel a bit sorry for him?"

So tragic—coming all this way to rescue her, only to receive such an answer.

"Tang Qing, I’ve detected Bai Mufeng’s Love Points are still at 87! A whole day has passed, and they haven’t dropped to zero!" Spotting good news, the system hurriedly reported. "Is Bai Mufeng finally acknowledging his feelings for you?"

Exposed publicly about his relationship with Tang Qing, this Taoist Soldier of the Heartless Way could no longer suppress his emotions. Every memory tied to Tang Qing now flared vividly in his mind.

As the system cheered, Bai Mufeng’s Love Points continued to rise!

Finally stabilizing at 94!

"Perfect! At this rate, we’ll complete the mission soon!"

Bai Mufeng was by far the toughest mark to conquer so far, but now, they were finally getting somewhere.

"However, in three days, Bai Mufeng will kill you again..." Remembering this detail, the system got nervous again. "What if he really does it?"

"What then?"

If you die, how can Love Points be earned?

The system’s question was met with Tang Qing’s cryptic smile as she slowly replied, "Then let’s see... what choice he makes..."
