Bengtie: My death fueled their madness.

As his gaze swept over the expressions of the three people, Jing Liu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly.

Did you see that? The true feelings the master had for his disciple.

Moreover, her master had openly admitted to liking her, even though he used those two words that she probably considered superfluous.

Now, do you all see clearly?

Especially Nguyen Mai!

As long as Ruan Mei admits that her drunken behavior towards her master... her master from her previous life, which violated the rules, stemmed from her most genuine feelings.

Then we must admit that her master's love and longing for her in this life also originated from his heart.

At that moment, the scorching heat, like a branding iron, had reached its final limit.

If her master hadn't woken up at the last moment... even if she were to be literally eaten by her master in the end, it wouldn't erase the fact that it was a natural progression.

What does it matter if I become a praying mantis that gets eaten during mating, as long as my master is pleased?

What does Ruan Mei's experience count for?

It was nothing more than a robbery, abusing her position as a teacher to forcefully instill in her students inappropriate emotions while drunk, and leaving her personal mark on them.

Her master in her previous life had no romantic feelings for her, and even if he did, he wouldn't break the rules.

It was all Ruan Mei's own fault that led to what happened later.

And what about myself, and my master in this life?

She was the first to fall in love with her master.

Long before Cangcheng met with disaster, long before that challenge against the Xiaowei, she had already developed feelings for her master.

Only now do I realize that the innocent thrill I felt as a child was actually love.

Later, when Cangcheng fell, his master took him in as a disciple, and they depended on each other for survival. Gradually, his master also came to like and love him.

This is a two-way journey!

However, the master's heart, already riddled with wounds, was ablaze with an inextinguishable fire of hatred, leading him to choose restrained love and tenderness.

"My master and I were mutually attracted, but now you understand? We were never even on the same starting line."

Jingliu didn't care whether his words were too hurtful.

There is only one master.

Whether or not he has an afterlife, there is only one him.

The master belongs to her, and can only belong to her...

Even if she is destined to be given to others, it should be Mianxue and Qinghan, who have worldly ties with her.

…In a way, their relationship with their master was a two-way street.

Even though the gentlest place in his master's heart belonged to him, Jingliu had to admit that although Mianxue and Qinghan's track was inconspicuous, their position was secure enough.

Master will not let down those who have given their bodies, minds, lives, and even everything for him.

Even on the eve of their departure, he still wanted to save them, and selfishly decided their future for them, which is the best proof of this.

From this perspective, Mianxue and Qinghan have a greater advantage than the three people in front of them.

"Perhaps."

The black swan rested her chin on her hand, calming her slightly fluctuating emotions, and wore a gentle smile.

"But I don't care. I only care about Mr. Qi's thoughts and whether he is willing to leave a place for me."

It doesn't need to be too big.

No matter how many times we reincarnate or how many times we miss each other, as long as we keep it forever, without erasing it or forgetting it.

Therefore, a small area is sufficient.

She is not greedy and is easily satisfied.

Yu Qingtu never expected that this little girl, who was only a little over a thousand years old, would have such sharp words.

But what storms hasn't she weathered?

"Ms. Jingliu, according to your words, I think that the person with the greatest advantage at the starting line is probably not you."

"But rather... the woman the little guy might encounter in his third life."

"Why don't you guess whether you can find him before then?"

Upon hearing this, a flash of red light suddenly appeared in Jing Liu's eyes, and his breathing became slightly heavier.

The black swan's smile deepened.

As expected of a genius, the counterattack was truly fierce.

but……

The black swan turned its gaze to Nguyen Mai.

This person's reaction was somewhat unexpected... rather intense, which shows their possessiveness.

But it doesn't matter.

Which woman doesn't have possessiveness?

She also has possessiveness, but she sees reality more clearly than possessiveness.

Yu Qingtu possesses the arrogance of a genius, unwilling to easily share with others, but he is upright and tolerant of fairness.

Jingliu's obsessive attachment and love for Mr. Qi stemmed from a thousand years of repression and the cruel twists and turns of fate.

Ruan Mei... is easier to understand now.

After all, she was the only one among the four present who had ever been with Mr. Qi, so it's only natural that she wouldn't like to see someone almost succeed and then overtake her.

Ah... If only Mr. Qi's bodyguard sisters were here.

In that case, Ruan Mei would definitely feel even worse.

However, apart from Jingliu, only she knows about this for the time being.

"That's my business; Ms. Yu Qingtu need not trouble herself with it."

Jingliu is no ordinary person, so how could he be easily provoked into losing his composure by a few words?

In her mind, even this expression of losing her composure was something only Qi Zhimu could see.

"In that case, let's end our conversation here." Yu Qingtu smiled slightly.

"What, you're not planning to leave yet?" Jingliu narrowed his eyes.

"Of course not, after all, the little guy isn't on the list of martyrs in the Swift Battle yet..."

Yu Qingtu slowly suppressed his smile, his expression gradually becoming indifferent.

"I'm not that free, and I'm too lazy to stretch my arms and legs too far, but if the Immortal Boat Alliance is unwilling to leave him a grave, I'd be happy to do it for him."

"Little Goose, Aruan, what do you think?"

Ruan Mei said expressionlessly, "I have no objection to your idea."

The black swan didn't mind the slightly intimate address and squinted in agreement:

"Hmm, I second that. Also, if the Immortal Ship Alliance chooses that the merits do not outweigh the demerits, Ms. Jingliu is welcome to visit the planet where Mr. Qi first passed away."

"His death anniversary is the Great Cold, and so is his birthday. The Great Cold is also a solar term in the Immortal Boat Alliance. Isn't that a coincidence?"

"After all, we have preserved the traces of his existence very well since 1679."

That small and elegant bamboo house remains intact to this day, and that world has safely weathered several extraterrestrial crises thanks to them.

Upon hearing this, Jingliu's face finally darkened, even turning gloomy.

As a resident of the Immortal Boat and having lived in Luofu for many years, how could she not know the grave crime of coveting the Jianmu tree?

Even if Master's actions were intended to avenge Xiang Shuhu and eliminate the Alliance's natural enemy, as the master was the main culprit, it couldn't silence the mouths of some old fogies within the Alliance.

Such is the nature of those parasites; they accomplish nothing, yet they find sustenance in witnessing the failures and misfortunes of others.

"The Qi family is full of loyal and righteous men; there is no need for Ms. Black Swan to worry about it."

A chilling murderous aura surfaced in Jingliu's eyes.

"My homeland has long since crumbled, and the most important people in my life are gone. I don't mind slaughtering those useless parasites and becoming a traitor to the Immortal Ship."

"Sigh, you think of me as too heartless."

A helpless sigh came from not far away.

Hua walked slowly closer.

"Don't worry, those old guys who are used to hiding behind the scenes, those useless parasites you mentioned, can only gossip at most."

"The Immortal Ship Chronicle will truthfully record Qi Zhimu's merits and demerits, while among the Immortal Ship Alliance people... he is a survivor of Cangcheng who bravely sacrificed himself to avenge Shuhu, and a hero recognized by the Emperor Bow Master."

"I don't think anyone will forget the glance that the Emperor cast at him that day."

Are you satisfied with this result?

Jingliu's expression softened slightly, and he nodded gently.
