After Favorability Is Maxed Chapter 87 – I'm Afraid You'll Abandon Immortality and Go for the Literary World

“I know what I'm going to do!”

Cui Ting grabbed Liu Yuan's hand gratefully and said, “Thank you very much. I know what I should do now. It's just that helping these people on the surface is only treating the symptoms but not the root cause. I have to solve the problem from the root and cut off the injustice. It turns out that I have to cut off the shackles and numbness in their hearts!”

Wait, are you going to abandon Immortality and go for the literary world? From then on, he would save the people of Shangyang with a brush and awaken their numb consciousness?

Liu Yuan looked at him speechlessly. The point was, if he was excited, then so be it. Why did he grab his hand and not let go? He could not help but reveal an awkward but polite smile. “Master Cui, this is a good thing, but I still have to go to Yuelai Inn to check if my sister has eaten yet.”

Gu Chang blinked his eyes and nodded in agreement.

Although he still did not quite understand why he had to be disguised as a girl and why Liu Yuan had escaped in such a hurry, he felt that his Master was in danger, so he reluctantly cooperated.

Cui Ting let go of Liu Yuan's hand and said in embarrassment, “I was too excited. I hope I didn't scare you. Speaking of which, I still don't know your name. Although this is the first time we've met, it's rare for you to express your thoughts in front of the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family. It makes me feel like we're old friends.”

It was true that they had just met a few days ago.

The intuition of people who learned swordsmanship was quite accurate.

Liu Yuan cupped his hands. “I'm Jiang Feng. I'm a small independent cultivator from the Jiang Kingdom in the southeast of Central Plains. I heard that the Singing Sword Meet of the Tide-viewing and Sword-listening event will gather the young heroes of various Immortal cultivation sects in Central Plains. I've brought my sister here to broaden her horizons.”

Cui Ting nodded and smiled. He patted Liu Yuan's shoulder and said, “The Singing Sword Meet is indeed a good opportunity for you to sharpen your skills. Although it's unlikely for a fifth-level Foundation Establishemnt cultivator to get into the top 10, it's more than enough for you to get into the top 50. You can even challenge the top 30. It's indeed a good idea to take your sister to see and broaden her horizons. How old are you this year?”

“19,” Liu Yuan reported.

Cui Ting said, “A 19-year-old fifth-level Foundation Establishemnt cultivator may be a little worse than some disciples from big sects, but as an independent cultivator, it's already excellent. If this kind of talent can be guided by the sect, you'll have great achievements in the future. If you continue as an independent cultivator, this talent will be buried.”

He turned to Liu Yuan. “I may be a little presumptuous, but Little Brother Jiang Feng, are you interested in joining the Heart Sword Sect? I can guarantee with my character that you'll receive the treatment of a core disciple.”

Although it could not be seen from his appearance, the lead disciple of Heart Sword Sect in front of him was already over 200 years old. The tone he used to speak to Liu Yuan was that of a senior.

However, for Immortal cultivators, this age was indeed very young.

“I already have a Master. It's not good for me to switch to another sect,” Liu Yuan declined politely.

Cui Ting was a little disappointed, but he affirmed Liu Yuan's character, “It's good to be able to maintain the dignity of a Master. However, the sect has wealth, companion, law, land, and resources. Rogue cultivators don't even have them. They can only snatch them from others.”

He heaved a long sigh and said awkwardly, “I finally understand why these people are like this. The white sand is Nirvana, and the black can never belong. I see. I was too naive.”

“It's good that you understand. It's good that you've seen through this kind of thing. Master Cui, don't be sad about it.”

Liu Yuan also sighed and congratulated him with joy. “It's best if you can understand… If you continue to be stubborn, I'm afraid you'll really have to abandon Immortality and turn to the literary world.”

“Weren't you filled with righteous indignation just now?” Cui Ting laughed.

Liu Yuan smiled shyly and thought to himself, “I just wanted to get out of here quickly. I was just angry at the moment. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you.”

“To be able to be angry about this kind of thing is a symbol of a sharp heart. Very good, very good.”

Cui Ting praised him, then suddenly waved his hand and said, “What Master Cui? Just call me Cui Ting. Don't mind my age and cultivation base. We're destined to be friends. Speaking of which, Yuelai Inn is usually the residence of commoners, right? ”

“Yes,” Liu Yuan nodded. “Brother Cui, it seems like this is your first time in the City of Ten Thousand Swords?”

Cui Ting said, “This is the first time I'm going out into the world. In the past, I've always been challenged by others and even sparred with fellow disciples. This time, I participated in the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event. I didn't want to be accepted at first, but a few days ago, Green Lotus Swordsman suddenly came out of the pavilion, so I decided to challenge her, although it ended in a crushing defeat.”

“…”

Who's the newbie here? You're a 200-year-old newbie at the Void Refinement stage!

Liu Yuan finally understood why Cui Ting's appearance rate in the plot was so low. It was because he was a cultivation otaku, the kind that was addicted to cultivation and could not extricate himself. It was already a blessing for him to be able to appear.

No wonder he sounded so idealistic.

Although Liu Yuan was an eye-witness to that battle, he was still shocked by the Green Lotus Swordsman's combat strength.

Cui Ting said with lingering fear, “She was too strong. She was so strong that I couldn't even think of resisting or chasing her. Fortunately, I finally pulled myself together, afraid that my Sword Heart would be damaged. But just as I was about to work harder and summon the courage to challenge someone again, I realized that the Green Lotus Swordsman was actually walking in the direction of the City of Ten Thousand Swords.”

“So after thinking about it, since she's already out, it wouldn't be right to reject the invitation, so I decided to come over and be a judge.”

Liu Yuan, “…”

The corner of his eyes twitched as he raised his hand and made a stop gesture. “Wait a minute, Brother… Cui Ting, you're saying that you followed Green Lotus Swordsman here?”

“O? ” Cui Ting nodded and asked in surprise, “Is there a big problem?”

“No, nothing.”

Liu Yuan was also suffering from internal injuries. He looked at Cui Ting with a depressed expression.

However, since Shen Sifan did not come over, it must be the effect of the Dream Bubble. Shen Sifan was probably the last person to use strange buffs on Liu Yuan. She looked for Liu Yuan based on intuition.

It was the most dangerous and also the safest.

“I'm fine,” Liu Yuan shook his head and laughed dryly. “I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect Master Cui to be such a person. I didn't hear anything from the rumors… Oh, by the way, Brother Cui, why are you asking about the residence?”

Cui Ting said, “I want to start with understanding the Immortal cultivators at the bottom. I want to start with the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event. I want to live in an ordinary place, and the food and drink are the simplest. I will only know how to help them when I truly experience their feelings.”

Liu Yuan was shocked by this realization. He really did what he said.

“Little Brother Jiang Feng, why are you looking at me like that?” Cui Ting asked, puzzled.

“I'm afraid that you'll abandon the Immortals and start with the literary world,” Liu Yuan said.

Cui Ting laughed. “You're really good at joking. Literature is the power of a Saint. A lowly sword cultivator like me can't reach this realm. Although I want to follow it, I can't.”

Liu Yuan had no energy to complain. He took out the map and said, “Then I'll take you with me. Yuelai Inn is in the west of the city. It's like this.”

He now felt that he needed to bring this shield with him and arrange a few more times at the appropriate time.

…

Half an hour later.

Liu Yuan pulled Gu Chang, draped Chuichui over his shoulders, and stepped into the Yuelai Inn with Cui Ting.

The lady boss was leaning against the counter in a flirtatious manner, the waiter was attending to the guests, and a large group of Immortal cultivators of all kinds were sitting in the lobby on the first floor. It was a very standard Xianxia RPG mission point.
