Chapter 237: The World’s Most Wanton Nun

It seemed that this Yue Youchan, who cultivated with emotion, was stronger than her counterpart?

But it is too early to draw conclusions.

Perhaps it is the combined strength of both.

“The Western Desert Leader’s true strength must surpass most upper-level prodigies. She could likely match figures like Han Yuanzhen,” Meng Changqing thought.

Not everyone could tread where he stood. It required an immense martial foundation.

If it were Yu Hongxue, he guessed she’d have to stop around three hundred miles in.

“Today’s Leader Yue is entirely different from the one I saw days ago,” Meng Changqing remarked with a slight smile.

“That would be my cold-natured sister. If there was any offense before, I hope Leader Meng will overlook it.” Yue Youchan laughed softly, her gaze soft as water, her chest swaying with every slight movement.

Despite her revealing appearance, she didn’t seem embarrassed and even stood straighter, unabashed by Meng Changqing’s gaze.

“Looks like this is more the ‘Charm Path’ than the ‘Path of Emotion,’” Meng Changqing raised an eyebrow.

Compared to Yue Qingchan, Yue Youchan was indeed alluring. Even a simple motion or raised hand caused an enticing sway.

“A dual-souled body. Something I’d only heard of, but never expected to see,” Meng Changqing said, drawing back his gaze.

“Yes, Leader Meng, I ask you to keep this between us.” Yue Youchan’s eyes sparkled as she winked at him. “Very few know about it.”

“I could, but I don’t keep secrets for strangers. Unless…” Meng Changqing’s lips curved.

She was practically giving him an opening, the perfect segue.

“Unless what?” Yue Youchan asked.

“Unless we’re friends. Keeping a friend’s secret is only natural.” Meng Changqing’s smile was gentle.

“Friends?” Yue Youchan was momentarily stunned.

She’d thought he might take advantage of the opportunity, given her irresistible allure, especially in this state. It was enough to drive men of their generation to distraction.

But instead, he spoke of friendship. That was unexpected.

“Aren’t we both leaders in this same realm? Why shouldn’t we be friends?” Meng Changqing replied, a hopeful glint in his eyes.

“Of course, but Leader Meng, it took me so much effort to get here, and you suddenly show up and take the divine object. It really breaks my heart,” Yue Youchan said with a pleading look, enough to melt even the hardest stone.

“What would you like?” Meng Changqing’s mind remained sharp, his martial domain protecting his will.

“With Leader Meng’s strength, securing the Wish Spirit Fruit is effortless and uncontested. Why not sell me this Silver Vein Grass? I’ll ensure the price is worth your while.” Yue Youchan stepped closer, now less than half a meter from him, her fragrant presence filling the air as she locked eyes with him, drawing him in.

“It seems the island’s suppressive force is fading faster than I anticipated,” Meng Changqing smirked. “Be careful, or you’ll get burned by playing with fire.”

Yue Youchan’s face shifted briefly but soon returned to normal.

“As expected of someone who flew here. My little skills don’t seem to work on you.” She laughed softly, her gaze revealing a hint of surprise.

Her Thousand Illusions Heavenly Demon technique had reached perfection and should affect or even control martial artists of her generation. Yet he seemed impervious, unaffected by her charm.

“Such a precious second-tier divine object. I certainly can’t give it away, not even a common one,” Meng Changqing smiled.

“What a heartless man! You’ve already seen everything, and you can’t grant me this small request?” Yue Youchan moved even closer, now only millimeters away.

“Let’s… just be friends,” Meng Changqing took a deep breath and said calmly.

Though it sounded strange, as if some man was breaking up after leading someone on.

“Fine, if Leader Meng’s heart is so resolute, then I’ll accept it,” Yue Youchan replied, taking a step back with a smile. “But is friendship all we’ll have?”

With that, she agreed to his friendship request.

Ding!

[Successfully added (Yue Qingchan) Yue Youchan as a friend!]

[Current favor level: One Star!]

[Attribute options available!]

[Extra reward obtained: Embryo Palm Intent!]

Hearing the system’s announcement, Meng Changqing was delighted. After a few twists and turns, he had finally succeeded.

In truth, he’d managed it without offering anything, even “taking” her second-tier divine object.

If it had been Yue Qingchan, she’d probably have fought him by now, let alone wanted friendship.

Thankfully, this was the bolder Yue Youchan.

Plus, there was an additional reward. Embryo Palm Intent!

This was an invaluable gain.

Though he didn’t practice palm techniques, it could be cultivated as a third type of true intent, saving him the time to comprehend it himself.

“Another close friend,” Meng Changqing smiled to himself.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have anything of equal value to give her.

“What are you smirking about?” a cold voice suddenly brought him back.

He looked at Yue Youchan, who was now radiating a cold aura, as if made of ice, her manner exuding hostility.

Evidently, she’d switched personalities.

Meng Changqing frowned slightly.

Was he really smirking? It had been a perfectly normal smile.

“You, a nun, accuse me of smirking? This is how I’ve smiled my whole life. If anyone is being wanton, it’s you for thinking that way,” Meng Changqing replied. “Your heart is impure, driven by lust. You’re undoubtedly the most wanton nun in existence.”

Compared to Yue Qingchan, he clearly preferred the charming Yue Youchan. She was captivating, seductive, while this one — her gaze and words were harsh and unappealing.

Besides, now that he’d gained the attribute, he had no need to back down.

It felt liberating.
