Chapter 58 – Think about it
In front of the woman he loved, he was subdued without even making a move. Liu Yulou wanted to regain his dignity, but he felt a strong sense of crisis.
If he dared to speak recklessly, he feared a transparent hole would be pierced through his chest.
"Do you know who I am?" he asked.
Lin Hao squinted slightly and replied calmly, "Who are you?"
"I am a disciple of the Ethereal Peak's elder who teaches the arts. If you leave quietly now, I can pretend nothing happened."
"Oh."
Liu Yulou thought the other party was going to compromise and felt a moment of joy, but in the next instant, he felt a pain in his chest.
Hiss—
He gasped and quickly said, "Brother, let's talk this over."
"Leave now, and I can pretend nothing happened."
Liu Yulou's face stiffened. Was he being given his own words back?
As he hesitated, the sword pierced deeper.
"Brother, stop, stop, I'll leave right now!"
In the face of life and death, dignity meant nothing. Liu Yulou hurriedly turned around and was about to run out.
"Hold on."
He had just taken two steps when he was stopped, his heart burning with anger, but under the eaves, he could only force a smile.
"Brother, what... what is it?" he asked, squeezing out a smile.
Lin Hao made a gesture and said indifferently, "Roll out."
"Roll..."
Without the sword pointed at his heart, Liu Yulou wanted to retort but saw the other take out a sword pill. The intense sword aura made him feel like kneeling and begging for mercy.
He dared not resist any longer and rolled away.
Beside him, Shui Ling'er's face didn't look good. She had hoped these two would fight each other to exhaustion, and then she could...
But who knew Lin Hao would be so domineering, giving no chance at all!
And Liu Yulou, he backed down too quickly. Even if he resisted a little, what could happen? Would Lin Hao really dare to kill a direct disciple within the sect?
Thinking about facing Lin Hao, this great demon king, next, she felt an immense headache.
"Now that no one else is here, it's time to fulfill your promise." Lin Hao looked at the woman, a gleam in his eyes.
"This..."
"Sister, are you thinking of going back on your word?"
Shui Ling'er was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.

"Lin Hao, can we change the stakes? I'm willing to compensate you with a top-grade Yellow-level Magical Treasure."
"Sister, in my eyes, you are priceless. How can a mere top-grade Yellow-level Magical Treasure compensate?"
Shui Ling'er bit her lip and said determinedly, "Two items, I'll give you two, and teach you an offensive Dao technique."
Lin Hao still shook his head and said lightly, "It's not what I want. I just want to explore the mysteries of life with you."
"You..."
Looking at the man approaching, Shui Ling'er's heart pounded wildly.
"Lin Hao, calm down."
The man's fiery gaze truly frightened her.
She needed to come up with a plan quickly, or she would really fall here!
Her mind raced, and after a moment, she made a decision.
"Lin Hao, such things can only be done between Dao Companions, and the most important thing to become Dao Companions is mutual trust.
If you show me the technique you practice, it will prove you trust me."
"Here, take a look."
Without hesitation, Lin Hao took out his technique jade slip.
A profound-level technique, the Nine Revolutions Scarlet Flame Technique. When mastered, it can repeatedly temper the fire spiritual energy within and even invoke earth fire.
Shui Ling'er took the jade slip and couldn't help but feel astonished. She had suggested reviewing the technique, thinking the other would find it too precious to show her.
But he handed it over without a word, leaving her plans thwarted.
"See, if this isn't enough, I have a dual cultivation method. Do you want to see it?"
"I..."
Before Shui Ling'er could speak, Lin Hao pulled her into his embrace.
"Don't look, let's try it directly."
...
Two days later.
Lin Hao held the woman, smiling, "I told you, being with me is a thousand times better than absorbing those monsters."
"Do you believe it now?"
"Be my Dao Companion, and you can improve your cultivation just by lying down. Isn't that better than endless hard training?"
In two days, Shui Ling'er was completely conquered. She weakly said, "Let me think about it. Can you leave first, please?"
"Alright..."
As Lin Hao left Shui Ling'er's cave dwelling, he suddenly frowned.
"Such strong demonic energy! Could it be that Cui Qing'er and the others have taken action?"
