Chapter 496 Because You Are Persistent

Outside the house, Ajing, Xiangzhu and Shousheng were standing there quietly, listening to the noises in the house. Ajing's brows were slightly furrowed, her face full of worry, she clutched the corner of her clothes nervously, silently praying in her heart that Ling Luanluan could communicate well with Chai Hunhun.

Xiang Zhu looked serious, staring intently at the door, as if thinking about various situations that might arise next. Shou Sheng muttered quietly to the side: "This Chai Hun Hun has a very stubborn temper. I don't know if Luan Luan can control her."

Ling Luanluan looked at Chai Hunhun's angry expression and quickly persuaded him in a soft voice: "Don't get angry yet. You see, I was once a Greedy Clan, but now I am a Spirit Clan. In fact, in my heart, there is no clear boundary between the Greedy Clan and the Spirit Clan. It's just that people in this world insist on making such a distinction, but what does this prove?"

She sighed slightly and continued, "You know, most of the Greedy people have never had a good ending or fate. They are always bound by various constraints, looked down upon by others, and live a difficult and depressing life. I also went through a lot in the beginning before I slowly came to where I am now and became a member of the Spiritual People."

Chai Hunhun listened to Ling Luanluan's words, and her tense expression relaxed a little. Although she was still angry, she no longer glared at Ling Luanluan fiercely like before. She just muttered softly: "So what? What does it have to do with me?"

Ling Luan Luan smiled and continued patiently: "How can it be okay? I just want to tell you that many times, we don't have to be bound by those established identities. You can also try to make changes and break those things imposed on us by others. Maybe you will be able to live a more comfortable and carefree life in the future."

Chai Hunhun frowned, as if thinking about Ling Luanluan's words, but he still refused to give in and said, "Humph, it's easy to say, but it's not that easy to change."

Ling Luanluan leaned forward, looked at Chai Hunhun sincerely, and said, "It's not easy, but as long as you are determined, you can always do something. You are so smart, you will definitely understand what I mean."

Chai Hunhun looked at Ling Luanluan with a puzzled look on her face. Her little head was in a mess. She really couldn't understand what was going on. She frowned and said to Ling Luanluan angrily, "But what is going on? Why were we suddenly tied up? Why did you betray us? Humph, it feels like you are the one who betrayed us."

After hearing this, Ling Luan Luan's expression turned serious. He sighed softly and said, "Indeed, I am a traitor to the Greedy Clan, there is no doubt about that. It may be because I have half the blood of the Eldar, so I feel that these two identities are just a choice of mine. But I also know that it may be difficult for you to choose the Eldar Clan."

Chai Hunhun curled his lips and said nonchalantly, "Actually, I don't understand. It doesn't make any difference to me. It's just that my parents are from the Greedy Clan, and they are very rich and powerful, so I can live a good life. I just can't figure it out. Even if the Spirit Clan can give me a lot of money, what's the difference between that and me being in the Greedy Clan? I have everything I want in the Greedy Clan, so why should I consider other things?"

These words really stumped Ling Luanluan. She was stunned at first, but then she laughed and looked at Chai Hunhun and said, "Then don't you know what the Greedy Clan is doing?" After a pause, her expression became serious, and then she continued, "Don't you know what the centenarians and the primordial maidens are made of? Huh?"

Chai Hunhun was choked up all of a sudden. He opened his mouth and managed to say something after a long while: "Then I have to ask you. You are the one who understands centenarians and people best."

Ling Luanluan nodded slightly, her tone full of determination: "Yes, it is because I am the one who understands it best, so I don't want to do this anymore. I really don't want to do such a thing that is against the will of heaven and evil, using a child's life to exchange for another person's life and youth."

After listening to this, Chai Hunhun didn't say anything, but just bit her lips, with complicated emotions in her eyes.

Seeing this, Ling Luanluan continued, "Well, I believe that you should be able to empathize with children, especially those who are slaves, right?" Unexpectedly, Chai Hunhun seemed to be touched and exploded all of a sudden. Her face flushed and she shouted loudly, "Shut up! Shut up!"

Ling Luan Luan was not angry, and said calmly: "Well, no one should suffer."

Chai Hunhun seemed to have lost all her strength and suddenly fell silent. Her mind could not help but recall the days when she was a slave and suffered humiliation. She was ordered around and did the most tiring and dirty work. If she made a mistake, she would be beaten and scolded. How helpless and desperate she was at that time. As she thought about it, her eyes turned red, but she was stubborn and didn't want to let the tears fall.

Ling Luanluan's face was full of tenderness, like a caring older sister. She gently patted Chai Hunhun's shoulder and said softly, "Hunhun, Hunhun, I believe you are a very good girl."

Chai Hunhun looked confused, blinking his big eyes, and was wondering in his heart what Ling Luanluan was up to.

Ling Luanluan looked at her and continued patiently, "Well, actually you might be quite worried, thinking that if you lose this family, lose Evian House, and lose the power of the Chai family to rely on, will you return to the miserable life of slaves? But I want to tell you, no, we all have hands and feet, as long as we are willing to work hard, and we can also choose the spirit race. With the same energy, if we spend it on the right things, we can still live a good life, and we don't have to help the tyrants, let alone worry about being targeted and killed by our enemies."

After hearing this, Chai Hunhun just sighed helplessly and said impatiently: "Don't tell me these things. Why are you telling me these things?"

Ling Luanluan frowned slightly and said more sincerely: "It is important to tell you this because you are different from others."

Chai Hunhun snorted coldly and asked back, "What's the difference? I don't think there is anything different, so don't waste your breath." But having said that, she was actually slightly touched in her heart, but she just refused to give in easily.

Although Ling Luanluan was a little unsure at the moment, after all, it was not easy to really convince Chai Hunhun, but she still racked her brains to think, what was different about Chai Hunhun?

She held her chin and pondered for a long time. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes lit up and she said, "Because you are very persistent."

Chai Hunhun snorted coldly and responded with disdain: "Humph, very persistent. What's the difference? I think you are just talking nonsense."

Ling Luanluan looked serious and nodded continuously, saying, "Yes, you are very persistent. No matter it is something you believe in or the people around you who care about, you will treat them very persistently. Just like you are angry with me now, but I know that you also have your own persistence and things you care about. That's why I think you are different from others. It is precisely because of this persistence that I think you are more likely to change and choose a better path."

After hearing this, Chai Hunhun was slightly stunned, but still said stubbornly: "Hmph, so what? Being persistent doesn't mean I have to listen to you and do as you say." But his heart couldn't help but be stirred, and he began to ponder the meaning of Ling Luanluan's words.
