Chapter 591 Talk With Yan Zilan
Chapter 591 Talk With Yan Zilan
?
At dawn, Ling Yun opened his eyes and sighed softly, looking at Situ Luan, who was still asleep in his arms.
Ling Xi immediately teased him. "I thought you were going to eat him last night, but you both fell asleep instead."
"I haven't thought about eating her yet." Ling Yun replied as he released Situ Luan from his embrace, and he then left his room. 'Sigh.'
"Why are you sighing?"
"Nothing." Ling Yun pulled Ling Xi onto his shoulders and led him to the main garden.
When they got there, they saw Yan Zilan playing the flute, and Ling Yun seemed to be enjoying the sound of her music.
Moments later, Yan Zilan had stopped playing her flute, and Ling Yun immediately said to her. "Even though I don't know about music, your music is really nice to listen to."
His words surprised Yan Zilan, and she turned to Ling Yun. "Do you really like my music?"
Ling Yun nodded to her. "Your music tones make me feel calmer than usual."
Yan Zilan smiled upon hearing that. "I composed it myself, and I imagined a calm atmosphere while doing it."
"Unfortunately, our lives as cultivators are never calm, and many troubles are always waiting for us." Ling Yun said as he sighed softly.
"You are right." Yan Zilan nodded to him. "However, all of that doesn't just happen to cultivators like us; even ordinary humans in the outside world are just like us, right?"
Ling Yun then stood beside Yan Zilan. "Whether ordinary humans or cultivators, we are all still human beings with emotions, and we can never escape worldly desires. Even I myself often feel angry, envious, and jealous of others."
"Haha." Yan Zilan gave a soft laugh and said to him. "Even so, those are what make us feel alive, and we are no different from living corpses if we don't have those feelings."
"En." Ling Yun agreed with her words. "However, we still have the choice to submit to those negative feelings or not, which will affect our character."
"If we choose to submit to those negative feelings, then we will become villains, and vice versa." Yan Zilan then turned to Ling Yun. "However, I didn't expect to hear such things from you, especially after everything I've heard about you."
"Do you think I'm a villain?" Ling Yun asked as he smiled at her.
"I don't know." Yan Zilan replied with a shake of her head. "Everything I know about you is based on other people's stories, so I can't judge your true character. Many people praised you for destroying the Shui Clan, and you also helped them destroy the Mo Clan. However, many of them also fear and hate you, and they fear that you will do the same to them."
"Do you and the members of the Huo Clan think the same as them?" Ling Yun asked her again.
"I did think the same as them before, but Yu'er's stories has somewhat changed my opinion of you." Yan Zilan then sighed softly before continuing. "However, my mother-in-law still thinks that way, especially after she found out about your matters with Huo Lan and the Chen Clan."
Ling Yun was not surprised to hear Chen Qing think that way of him, especially since she was also a member of the Chen Clan and Huo Lan was her daughter.
Ling Yun then said to her. "Honestly, I don't want to have trouble with them either, but they were the ones to find trouble with me first. Back then, I didn't even know that bitch, but she suddenly sent Huo Yin to kill me. As for the Chen Clan, Qing Hong tried to kill me first, so I killed him. Chen Xiang? I spare no one who dares to lust over my women, because they are all the most important in my life."
"I know; I've heard everything from Yu'er." Yan Zilan replied with an understanding nod. "However, the matter between you and Chen Hong is your fault, right? If you didn't sleep with Wen Qing, I'm sure he wouldn't have tried to kill you."
Ling Yun did not refute her words. "The matter between us is indeed my fault, but I am a male prostitute, and-"
"Huh?" Yan Zilan exclaimed in surprise after she heard that. "Were you really a male prostitute before?"
Ling Yun told her. "Back then, I was just an ordinary human, and our lives were far from comfortable, so I decided to work as a male prostitute. However, almost all of my customers are now my official women, but two of them are my slaves, and only one remains in the outside world."
Yan Zilan was really surprised. "I didn't expect you to have such a relationship with some of them, but I can see that they are happy with you, and their relationship is also excellent."
Ling Yun smiled at her words. "Even though I'm not loyal, they always love and support me, so I'm very grateful to have them by my side."
"They-" Suddenly, they heard the sound of several footsteps walking towards them, and they saw Lian Bing walking towards them along with the core disciples of the Lotus Sect.
Lian Bing then said to him. "Yun'er, I will bring them back to the sect right away, but since Tang Wan hasn't returned here yet, I will leave her with you."
"All right." Ling Yun then pulled Lian Bing into his arms and kissed her lips, causing those core disciples to gape in astonishment, especially since their sect master shamelessly kissed him back.
'Tch! Our ice queen has changed now.' Su Ling and the others muttered in their hearts, but somehow they also envied Lian Bing.
Mu Lingxue's face turned red as she watched them, and she rubbed her lips. 'Sigh, I should forget about our kiss soon; Ling Yun did it only to help me drink the medicinal liquid, and he doesn't have any feelings for me.'
As for Yu Mei, she didn't show any reaction to their kiss, and she considered that it was natural, especially since everyone already knew that Ling Yun was Lian Bing's future husband.
After they stopped kissing, Ling Yun then pulled Ling Ling closer and kissed her as well, and they kissed for quite some time.
They were no longer surprised to see them like that, especially after they learned about their relationship, but some of them still found it hard to believe that the two of them were in an incestuous relationship.
"Hehe." Ling Ling laughed softly. "I will accompany Sister Bing first, but I will still come back and forth frequently to dual cultivate with you, or else I will fall behind the other sisters."
"En." Ling Yun nodded in agreement. "Are Jing'er and Shui Lan not coming with you?"
"No." Lian Bing shook her head at him. "Jing'er wanted to accompany Hua Ning and Hua Yue, so I didn't bring her back to the sect. As for Shui Lan, she decided to stay here to serve you."
"All right, you can go back now." Ling Yun replied as he nodded. "Anyway, I will go straight to Lotus Sect after Xiao Yin finishes everything, and I will definitely help you break through later."
"Okay, I will wait for you at the sect." Afterward, Ling Ling activated her device and opened a portal to the Lotus Sect, and they all left Yunlong Zuzhai through it.
Yan Zilan suddenly said to him. "In that case, I will return to my room first, Ling Yun."
"En." After Yan Zilan left him, Ling Yun went to find the three men who were still sleeping, and he immediately woke them up.

"Gah! It's still dawn, Brother Yun!" Zhang Bing was the first to complain.
Ling Yun shook his head after he heard that. "Hey! Zhang Bing! If you slack off like this, you can never become strong! So you better get up now, and we'll all go train with those beasts!"
Hearing that, Zhang Bing immediately got off the bed as he continued to grumble in his heart. 'Tch! Brother Yun has become a maniac fighter now; he won't even let me rest!'
Even though the other two men were also still feeling sleepy, they seemed excited after they heard that, especially Jiang Chen, who was already very curious about Ling Yun's training method.
.

Soon, they had arrived at another forest area, and several strong beasts were waiting for them there.
Jiang Chen was instantly stunned after Ling Yun told him that he had always sparred with them, especially since the beasts' cultivation was far above his. "Are you kidding me? How can I possibly fight them?"
"Haven't you always been curious about my strength?" Ling Yun asked as he shook his head. "I literally fought them every day, which made me as strong as I am now."
Yi Shi patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder. "My cousin didn't lie to you; he sparred with them every day. So if you want to be strong like him, you shouldn't complain like this."
Jiang Chen sighed softly and nodded to him. "You're right; I shouldn't complain, and I'll do whatever it takes to get even stronger."
However, Ling Yun then took out the Chaos Dragon Broadsword and thrust it into the ground, and he said to Jiang Chen. "Besides fighting them, I also train my body by carrying this weapon of mine."
"Hmm?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and asked him. "Can I try to lift it?"
