Chapter 1090 Confession

Chapter 1090: Chapter 1090 Confession

While Ling Feng was handling matters with Liang Cheng at Ziyan Pavilion, Liu Tingyu and Wang Zhiying were comfortably trying on the clothes they bought today at the villa. The two of them snuggled on the couch watching soap operas, and from time to time, Liu Tingyu explained things to Wang Zhiying.

Even though Wang Zhiying learns quickly, she has only been in the new world for a short time. Yet, under Liu Tingyu’s patient explanations, Wang Zhiying has finally gained a fresh understanding of this new world.

"Humans nowadays are just too amazing!" Wang Zhiying said while tearing open a bag of potato chips and watching TV. "In just a few hundred years, it feels like the world has completely changed!"

Liu Tingyu nodded in agreement. The progress of human technology over these few hundred years has far surpassed that of the previous two thousand years. The knowledge Wang Zhiying had from her master was no longer applicable in today’s world.

"Ting Yu, I’ve got a question!" Wang Zhiying put down her snack bag, sat up straight, and said very seriously, "Why are you all being so nice to me?"

Since yesterday, Wang Zhiying noticed that the women around Ling Feng were genuinely treating her well, picking out beautiful clothes for her and offering her delicious food. While touched, Wang Zhiying was also a bit puzzled.

Liu Tingyu tilted her head and said, "Being so nice to you? Does this count as being nice? We just feel... feel close to you."

"I’m close?" Wang Zhiying was somewhat surprised. In the Holy Gate, the junior sister had often called her a fierce tigress, and she never felt she was close to anyone.

Liu Tingyu nodded: "Yes, and you’ve just come out from cultivation in the mountains, surely unfamiliar with the world, no harm in helping you out, right? Plus... although Ling Feng hasn’t explicitly said it, the injuries you have seem related to him, otherwise he wouldn’t have brought you here to recover."

At this point, Liu Tingyu flashed a sly smile: "We treat you kindly so you won’t hold Ling Feng accountable."

Wang Zhiying blinked; indeed, her injuries were linked to Ling Feng. But if they knew it was from battling Ling Feng, would they still be so kind?

This question made Wang Zhiying hesitant, but facing Liu Tingyu’s enthusiasm, she felt uneasy about keeping secrets.

"What if... my injuries are from fighting Ling Feng?" After pondering for a long time, Wang Zhiying decided to reveal the truth because she thought that if she didn’t speak now, she would regret it in the future!

Even if they ended up disliking her, it was better than deceiving them, which went against Wang Zhiying’s beliefs!

"If nothing else works, I might just return to the Holy Gate!" Wang Zhiying secretly thought.

Liu Tingyu widened her eyes: "What? Your injuries were from fighting with Ling Feng?"

Wang Zhiying took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes, so now you should know... that I... I might not be what you think!"

"That’s just awful!" Liu Tingyu slapped the table, speaking with indignation: "How can it be like this!"

There was a flicker of sorrow in Wang Zhiying’s eyes as she forced a smile: "I’m sorry, I deceived you, I’ll leave now..."

Just as Wang Zhiying was about to get up and leave, Liu Tingyu grabbed her hand: "Xiao Ying, what are you saying? Why would you leave?"

Wang Zhiying said in surprise, "Weren’t you just very angry at me? I deceived you!"

Liu Tingyu nodded: "I’m indeed angry, but not at you, I’m angry at Ling Feng!"

"What?" Wang Zhiying was dumbfounded; she felt she couldn’t keep up with Liu Tingyu’s pace.

Liu Tingyu said: "I know Ling Feng’s strength well, how could he be so hard on you? Does he even count as a man? When he comes back, I’m definitely going to have a word with him."

Wang Zhiying hesitated: "You... you’re not angry at me?"

"Why would I be angry at you?" Liu Tingyu asked back.

"Because I fought Ling Feng before, so... I’m not really part of the Dragon Group, nor can I be considered Ling Feng’s friend!" Wang Zhiying said through gritted teeth.

"You said it was before!" Liu Tingyu held Wang Zhiying’s hand: "Xiao Ying, do you consider us friends or enemies now?"

Wang Zhiying looked at Liu Tingyu in surprise, feeling the sincerity from her; her eyes started to feel a bit wet. She nodded firmly: "I... I naturally see you as friends now. You’re the best people I’ve met since coming into the mortal world."

"Then that’s settled!" Liu Tingyu said with a smiling face: "We’re friends now, aren’t we? What’s the point in dwelling on past matters? But... that Ling Feng, hurting you like this, I’ll certainly avenge you, and I believe Xiao Rui and Sister Meizi will stand with us too!"

"Why?" Wang Zhiying couldn’t help asking.

Liu Tingyu blinked: "Because we’re good sisters."

Wang Zhiying said embarrassedly: "Actually... actually my injuries weren’t caused by Ling Feng attacking me, they’re from backlash when I tried using a forbidden move... don’t make it hard for Ling Feng, he... he is actually quite a good person! If it wasn’t for him saving me, I might now be covered by snow and ice, forever asleep atop the mountains."

Liu Tingyu gave Wang Zhiying a meaningful look: "Alright, since Xiao Ying pleaded for him, we’ll let Ling Feng off the hook!"

Wang Zhiying breathed a sigh of relief, glad it could be resolved this way.

"Xiao Ying, just how are your injuries?" Liu Tingyu asked with curiosity: "I hear the vitality here is thick, does it help your recovery?"

Wang Zhiying nodded: "That’s correct, the vitality here is even on par with our Holy Gate. Here, I can cut down the time to recover my injuries by half. Oh by the way, Ting Yu, I see your aptitudes are quite good, why haven’t you started cultivation?"

This was something Wang Zhiying found strange. Ling Feng’s strength was so great, yet his women were all ordinary people, which simply didn’t make sense.

Liu Tingyu shook her head: "My body can’t handle cultivation, and as for Xiao Rui and the others... Ling Feng mentioned he hasn’t found suitable cultivation techniques yet, which is also quite a headache for him."

Wang Zhiying laughed and said: "I thought it was some big problem. As for women’s cultivation techniques, I have a few on hand, if you don’t mind, I can teach them to you!"

Liu Tingyu asked curiously: "We’re in our twenties already, is it too late to start cultivation?"

Wang Zhiying said: "Normally, being in your twenties is not the best time to start cultivation. However, due to the vitality here cleansing, impurities in your bodies are quite few, working as a kind of marrow cleansing. I have a Celestial Marrow Cleansing Scripture here; you can use it to first condition your bodies, then I’ll teach you another mental method."
