This has nothing to do with whether Liu Qingluo looks down on others from a high position, itâs just a manifestation of courtesansâ low self-esteem. As long as the world remains unchanged, itâs something that canât be removed.
"Changâan, thereâs something I donât understand," Zhu Pingniang looked at him, "Do you think... back then when you received your Immortal Fate and joined the Chaoyun Sect, Miss Yun, who stayed alone in an empty room, would also have such concerns?"
"No..." Xu Changâan said, pausing his tone, then corrected himself, "I donât know, but I can only do what I ought to do."
"Tsk," Zhu Pingniang pouted.
Putting yourself in othersâ shoes.
Yun Qian, a lady of wealth, eloped with him, practically leaving everything behind.
Now, they havenât even reached the point of intimacy between husband and wife. While Xu Changâan sometimes calls her "my wife" in public, most times he still refers to her as "Miss Yun." Not to mention Yun Qian, even Zhu Pingniang finds it awkward to hear.
Were it not for knowing Xu Changâanâs nature, Zhu Pingniang would have assumed he was shirking responsibility after taking advantage.
In this context, he actually left Yun Qian alone in Beisang City to pursue cultivation by himself?
When Zhu Pingniang first learned of this, she almost nailed Xu Changâan to the pillar of shame as a âheartless man.â No wonder Gu Qiancheng assumed he was a bad guy the first time he learned of Xu Changâan and Yun Qianâs relationship.
After all, from a third-party perspective, he really doesnât seem like a good match.
Xu Changâan sighed lightly.
He understood, but sometimes there was no other way, and now everything has improved, thanks to Zhu Pingniangâs help.
"Your destiny is also fortunate, to have a good girl like Ms. Yun," Zhu Pingniang spat lightly, "If it were any other family, who would bear with you."
"Sister is right," Xu Changâan nodded helplessly.
"Ah... what am I talking with you about," Zhu Pingniang suddenly remembered that the person in front of her isnât an ordinary young man, but someone full of secrets.
Leg shaking.
Indeed, itâs hard to not see him as an ordinary young man.
Forget it.
The Sect Leader has already said to view him with a normal mindset, so no need to go against the seniors.
Zhu Pingniang changed her posture, crossing her legs without any elegance, looking at Xu Changâan askew.
"Changâan, you being so clever, do you know... whatâs the best way for me to make the girls not be afraid of me because Iâm from the Immortal Sect and distance themselves from me?"
"Naturally, by turning them into Immortal Sects as well," Xu Changâan said quietly.
At that moment, he suddenly realized the significance of Zhu Pingniang sending Liu Qingluo to the Immortal Sect.
Clearly, itâs to set an example for the girls of the Flower Moon Building, using Liu Qingluo to remind them that even they have a chance to cultivate.
Once everyone becomes part of the Immortal Sect, naturally, they wonât be afraid anymore.
Senior Zhu intends to move the entire brothel to Muyu Peak!
Xu Changâan twitched his mouth, thinking that once the senior sisters on the mountain learned about this, they might wholeheartedly agree.
He could almost foresee that after this happened, the already fragile reputation of Muyu Peak would be fiercely stomped down by Zhu Pingniang.
"You guessed right, once everyone is part of the Immortal Sect, they wonât be afraid of me. Moreover, after meeting those hospitable girls from Muyu Peak, theyâll probably forget all about the nonsense of the Demon Sect," Zhu Pingniang said with a smile, "Changâan, you really understand me, I take back what I said about Ah Qing being closer to me."
Then Zhu Pingniangâs smile froze on her face.
Tsk.
Back then, letting Liu Qingluo go to the mountain might have something to do with Xu Changâan, but the important thing was she said it was for Liu Qingluo to set an example for the girls of the Flower Moon Building...
But who would have thought, Liu Qingluo caused such a sensation with her talent as soon as she went up the mountain.
Her intention was clearly selfish, but instead, she brought an extraordinary disciple to the Chaoyun Sect.
Xu Changâan: "?"
Ah Qing is closer to me?
What does that mean?
"Smart Changâan, can you guess why Sister wants to tell you about this matter?" Zhu Pingniang squinted her eyes.
Xu Changâan really wanted to say Zhu Pingniang was just âlonely,â so she randomly sought him for a chat to relieve her boredom.
But obviously, Zhu Pingniangâs dangerous eyes told him that this must never be said aloud.
Nonsense.
Zhu Pingniang herself knew she was merely lonely and chatting with Xu Changâan because of it, but as the conversation went deeper, she felt embarrassed as an old woman talking about such things with a young man, so she had to forcibly find a reason for the âwomenâs loneliness topicâ with Xu Changâan.
"Changâan is foolish and cannot guess Sisterâs thoughts," Xu Changâan shook his head.
Zhu Pingniang went along and said, "Hmm... actually, I want you to showcase some Immortal Sect skills for the girls at the evening banquet."
"Hmm?" Xu Changâan was taken aback.
"You see... Ah Qing is a Half-Demon, which will inevitably cause the girls to panic," Zhu Pingniang gestured with her hands, "but after her performance, if you, from the Immortal Sect, showcase some Immortal Family techniques, it will stabilize the scene."
With a display of Immortal Sect techniques, a mere Ah Qing naturally wouldnât scare the girls of the Flower Moon Building.
Moreover, although Xu Changâan is from the Immortal Sect, his popularity is very high, so his exhibition of Immortal Family skills wouldnât frighten or disgust the girls, but instead spark curiosity.
Itâs like planting a seed in the hearts of the girls of the Flower Moon Building, allowing them to adapt to the existence of the Immortal Sect, so that they wonât be afraid or resist when hearing about cultivation in the futureâdonât doubt it, those unambitious girls would definitely say things like the brothel is better than the Immortal Sect.
