I, the transmigrated villain, please wait, gentle master.

Chapter 142 If Life Could Only Be Like Our First Meeting (1)

Yun Songxuan's statement about "improper family conduct" could be interpreted as a veiled criticism of Yun Songhe's philandering and womanizing ways, suggesting that the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked, implying that the disciples of the Yunlan Sect all have some degree of "womanizing" bad habits.

This problem, once it flares up, is extremely serious. They can actually discern the true nature of Xue Rendong, that fierce and brutal fellow. Even in a life-or-death situation, they still have time to criticize his fish tail. There's no one else like them.

The proverb "Don't judge a book by its cover" is utter nonsense to those who prioritize appearance. How else can you judge a person if not their looks? What else can you look at besides their face? Don't talk about being loyal to someone's character; no one will waste time trying to understand the character of an ugly person! Loyalty to someone's character is predicated on their appearance.

Yun Songxuan rubbed his forehead and smiled bitterly, then shrugged at Mei Shiyu. He thought to himself that their values ​​followed their physical appearance, a family tradition they inherited, and there was nothing they could do about it.

He told the younger generation that the person in front of them was the peak master of the Hidden Sword Peak of the Dao Xuan Sect. The girl who had been whispering with her companion just now was immediately ashamed and embarrassed. She lowered her head and did not dare to raise it again.

Seeing this scene, Mei Shiyu suddenly thought of the brother and sister Si Wuxie and Si Wuyou.

Yun Songhe's two illegitimate children perfectly inherited his unique personality of "judging people by their looks first." Si Wuxie aside, there's Si Wuyou...

She really dared to fall for Li Tingyun at first sight!

All for that incredibly deceptive face.

He lost his life.

Mei Shiyu felt an immense headache whenever she thought about the entanglements between them in her past life, not because they were complicated and unresolved, but because... it was all just too outrageous.

No one knew better than Mei Shiyu how Li Tingyun and Si Wuyou met and how they got together in their previous life.

In Mei Shiyu's view, the so-called "fate" between the two was completely unfounded.

It's even more unrealistic than a flower in a mirror or the moon's reflection in water.

This is absolutely outrageous!

……

last life.

Li Tingyun first met Si Wuyou in the local area.

It was still in a "brothel" within the local area.

Red-light districts and red-light districts, brothels and pleasure quarters.

This is the land of ultimate bliss.

Mei Shiyu was there at the time.

Well, don't ask them why the three of them would be "gathering together" in a brothel in the local area.

First of all, it should be noted that their accidental gathering in the brothel occurred shortly after Mei Shiyu "sought refuge" at the Taiji Hall...

When Mei Shiyu first came to Li Tingyun's side, she discovered something strange: Li Tingyun frequently visited the area.

He treated the area as his own territory, coming and going as he pleased.

That place was like his "second home".

When Li Tingyun is in a good mood, he might even disguise himself and put on an act, just like those cultivators who sneak into the market to do business.

But most of the time, he doesn't bother to hide it. He comes and goes as he pleases. The Ghost King and the Ghost Emperor know this, but they can't do anything about it.

Mei Shiyu was really curious as to why Li Tingyun liked going to the underworld so much.

When he goes to the territory, what places does he go, what does he do, and who does he look for?

Mei Shiyu could swear that he was absolutely not trying to find out anything; he was just curious.

So one day, when Li Tingyun was about to set off for the territory again, Mei Shiyu’s great curiosity caught his attention.

He stopped and turned to ask, "Do you want to come with me?"

In no mood!

How can it be?

Why should I be with you...?

As if guided by some unseen force, Mei Shiyu nodded.

Then, Li Tingyun took him to the local area.

On the way, he asked Li Tingyun where they were going.

Li Tingyun didn't hide anything from him and said two words:

The Abyss of Demons.

Mei Shiyu's expression changed.

He couldn't help but recall his past experience retrieving the Dividing Scene Sword from the Abyss, a near-death experience where he practically crawled out of hell on his last breath.

At that time, he had barely escaped from the clutches of the Ten Kings of Hell, barely surviving against all ten of them. He stepped out of the gates of hell and saw the first ray of sunlight in the human world. The next moment, he was caught up by the Emperor of Fengdu.

It's truly unimaginable how unlucky he was. He had barely stepped out of the territory when the Ghost Emperor announced his return from seclusion and came to settle accounts with him personally!

The Great Emperor of Fengdu, this ancient monster who has lived for thousands of years, had been in seclusion for three or four hundred years. He emerged from seclusion just on the day, at the same hour, at the same time that Mei Shiyu retrieved the Fenjing Sword!

It's hard to say whether Mei Shiyu was incredibly lucky or incredibly unlucky; at the brink of life and death, he encountered yet another, even more terrifying person...

That's right, it's Li Tingyun.

Mei Shiyu walked out of the Gate of Hell with his sword on his back, with the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu chasing after him, while the Lord of Taiji Palace stood in front of him.

The person behind him was relentlessly pursuing him, demanding his life!

And the person in front of him...

smiled.

When they first met, Li Tingyun's smile was so sincere that later, no matter when, where, or under what circumstances Mei Shiyu recalled the scene, he felt that only the word "sincere" could describe Li Tingyun's smile.

It is free from any conspiracy, filth, or cunning.

A genuine smile, without any ulterior motive.

Mei Shiyu encountered Li Tingyun when he was on the verge of death. At that time, he did not recognize Li Tingyun, and Li Tingyun did not wear any items that could identify him, such as divine weapons.

Almost all high-level cultivators carry a weapon that represents their status and position, but Li Tingyun does not have such a habit.

Because he didn't have a single divine weapon of his own.

Mei Shiyu was unaware of the background, nor did he know who the man smiling at him from the brink of death was, nor did he understand why this man was so leisurely and carefree.

Do you think you've turned the gates of hell into your own backyard?!

Mei Shiyu once thought he had met a fool.

Then he took the "idiot" away.

He helped him escape.

Then, Mei Shiyu was exhausted and could no longer escape. While coughing up blood, she pushed Li Tingyun away, telling him to leave first and that she would cover the rear.

He solemnly warned the "fool": Don't wander around the gates of hell again!

To cultivate immortality, one must follow the righteous path and never stray from it.

After saying this, Mei Shiyu couldn't catch her breath, the world spun before her eyes, and she fainted in front of Li Tingyun—no, in his arms.

Li Tingyun caught his body.

Mei Shiyu had never been able to understand Li Tingyun's actions. He felt it would have been better to let him die on the spot! Don't hold him, don't save him, let him die silently, even if his bones are shattered to pieces, he doesn't care, he just wants to leave his integrity in the world!

Much later, when Mei Shiyu recalled the scene of their first encounter, she wished she could disappear into the ground. She would even get out of bed in the middle of the night and slap herself twice. Why did she have to meddle in other people's business when she was about to die?!

Why did he grab Li Tingyun's arm and run for ten miles without even looking back to see if the Ghost Emperor had caught up?!

...The Emperor of Fengdu watched helplessly as he dragged Li Tingyun away.

They didn't chase after them at all.

Of course, the most bizarre person in this whole farce was Li Tingyun himself.

He was dragged along for ten miles without uttering a sound or even panting, until Mei Shiyu collapsed from exhaustion, at which point he went forward and picked her up.

...and brought back to Daoxuan Sect.

The Taiji Palace Master embraced the Dao Xuan Sect Immortal Venerable around the waist, shattered the mountain-protecting formation with one foot, broke through several restrictions, and walked step by step to the top of the main peak, ten thousand ren high.

The entire process was witnessed by every cultivator in the Dao Xuan Sect who had eyes!

Mei Shiyu, lying in his arms, was completely unaware of the situation.

At that time, Ren Pingsheng, the sect leader of Daoxuan Sect, failed to transcend his tribulation and perished. The entire Daoxuan Sect was leaderless and fell into great chaos. Ren Pingsheng's thirteen personal disciples even started fighting among themselves and splitting apart.

The cause was a falling out between the eldest and second senior brothers. The specific reasons were unclear, but their discord had been going on for a long time.

Mei Shiyu naturally didn't want to watch his fellow disciples turn against each other, but in terms of seniority, he was the youngest, and he couldn't get a word in edgewise when it came to important matters of the sect.

Although Ren Pingsheng doted on him during his lifetime, and his fellow disciples treated him very well, he was the thirteenth son, and the younger ones had to listen to the older ones and not nag. This was called respecting seniority and keeping to one's place.

Since we can't speak to each other, we can only do our best.

Therefore, at this critical moment, Mei Shiyu decided to go to the territory to retrieve the sect's token, the Fenjing Sword. He was extremely determined and would not regret it even if it meant his death.

He never expected that not only would he not die, but he would also be "rescued" by Li Tingyun by a twist of fate.

He said that Li Tingyun saved him, and there was nothing wrong with him at all.

If Li Tingyun hadn't chosen to remain silent and let him drag her away, but instead immediately shook off his hand and distanced herself from the situation, how could the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu have let him off so easily?

Mei Shiyu, in a daze, borrowed the "power" of Taiji Hall and Li Tingyun to escape a calamity.

Li Tingyun even went so far as to "do good deeds to the end" by sending the unconscious Mei Shiyu back to Daoxuan Sect.

Thank goodness, the Lord of Taiji Palace was in a very good mood that day! Apart from those cultivators who dared to obstruct him, he did not indiscriminately kill any other innocent people.

When Mei Shiyu woke up, the Dao Xuan Sect and even the entire cultivation world were in chaos and turmoil. He himself was still seriously injured and exhausted, both physically and mentally.

He also lost all his cultivation.

Because Li Tingyun cast a Yin-Yang curse on him before she left.

Indeed, everything comes at a price.

The Yin-Yang Curse was originally an evil technique created by the Lord of Taiji Palace. Li Tingyun personally imprinted the curse mark on him, so it was definitely not as simple as just taking some snow lotus seeds to break the curse.

Unless Mei Shiyu personally goes to the Taiji Hall to find Li Tingyun, he will never be able to recover his cultivation.

When Mei Shiyu learned that Li Tingyun had carried him back to Daoxuan Sect and cast a Yin-Yang curse on him, he found himself unable to eat or sleep properly day after day.

With Li Tingyun's outburst, Mei Shiyu could no longer stay in the Dao Xuan Sect. The suspicion of his fellow disciples, his crippled body, and his fatal wounds... one after another, the pressure from within and without almost crushed him.

He decided to leave the Dao Xuan Sect.

But he didn't want to go to the Taiji Hall either.

He just wanted to leave, without knowing where to go or what to do next.

But leaving was undoubtedly his best option.

The problem is, he wanted to leave, but his eldest brother wouldn't let him, and neither would his second brother.

The eldest brother wanted to imprison him in the Immortal Prison to investigate his relationship with Li Tingyun and make him pay the price for Li Tingyun's crime of massacring Dao Xuan Sect disciples.

The second senior brother, on the contrary, did his best to protect Mei Shiyu. He did not want to see his youngest junior brother being kicked out at this time, even if he was not kicked out but wanted to leave on his own.

Because he was all alone, had already offended Fengdu, and was now on the radar of the Taiji Palace, if he were to leave the mountain gate alone, it would be tantamount to walking down a dead end.

The second senior brother would not let him go to his death.

Thus, the conflict between the eldest and second eldest brothers intensified further due to the issue of Mei Shiyu's future and punishment. They split into two factions, with names already decided: one was the Dao Sect and the other the Xuan Sect. The entire cultivation world knew that they had completely fallen out.

While the family was dividing up their property, Mei Shiyu quietly went down the mountain.

That's incredible.

He hasn't cleared his name yet, and this departure is nothing short of "fleeing while guilty"!

Mei Shiyu emerged from the territory covered in injuries, and her cultivation had been sealed by the Yin-Yang Curse. Even if she managed to escape in the chaos, she wouldn't get very far.

Not long after, he was caught by his senior brother.

The second senior brother rushed over upon hearing the news, determined to snatch him away from the eldest senior brother.

Mei Shiyu was almost torn in two by them.

The two groups of people they brought almost came to blows!

But almost is almost, it was just a little bit short.

Mei Shiyu was not torn in two, and the eldest and second eldest brothers did not actually fight.

Because Li Tingyun has reappeared.

The involvement of a third party quickly brought the two together as a whole.

Regardless of whether it's the Dao Sect, the Xuan Sect, or the Dao Xuan Sect, whether they've split up or not, that's their internal affair. How can the Taiji Palace be allowed to interfere?!

The eldest and second eldest brothers immediately joined forces.

United in resisting foreign aggression.

Li Tingyun: Why the hell would I care about that?

He doesn't care what the other side is like, he doesn't care what they do.

He came here alone for three things.

Plum rain season.

Plum rain season.

It's still the plum rain season.

He took away Mei Shiyu, whose life was hanging by a thread.

He also killed his senior brother, whom everyone disliked.

Li Tingyun single-handedly ruined the entire situation, silencing everyone.

Li Tingyun singled out Ren Pingsheng's eldest disciple and Mei Shiyu's senior brother, and killed him quickly, seemingly not entirely because he disliked him.

There are also some more hidden reasons.

After all, the way he killed this person was quite unusual.

He forcibly infused him with a massive amount of spiritual power.

It literally burst his dantian, zifu, and torso.

And the soul.

Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and souls were scattered.

The eldest brother is dead, completely dead.

Naturally, only the second senior brother could take on the role of the store keeper.

Originally, the Dao Xuan Sect had split into two factions, had chosen sides, and divided its resources. In the end, however, they miraculously reunited.

The fellow disciples reunited, and the sect's name was changed back. Apart from the eldest disciple passing away and the youngest disciple leaving, everything seemed unchanged, yet everything had quietly undergone a dramatic transformation.

The first encounter is called the first meeting.

The second encounter was a reunion.

Mei Shiyu opened and closed his eyes, and he was in the Taiji Hall.

The moment he opened his eyes and saw Li Tingyun.

He wanted to die.
