235: Emotional value maxed out (picture)

“Alright, it's getting late. Chen Xuan, you should go back and rest. Your master’s wife and I still have things to discuss.”

“Understood.”

Chen Xuan cupped his hands and left directly.

Only the two of them remained in Yu Gang’s room.

“What’s wrong, husband?”

“What do you think of this Chen Xuan…?”

“He’s quite excellent, it’s just that his background is too pitiful. We should treat him well from now on.”

“No need for that!” Yu Gang suddenly shouted.

Dragon YuYan frowned and set up a soundproofing Formation.

“Why is there no need? He’s so excellent. If we Cultivate him well now, he has a promising future!”

“I said there’s no need, then there’s no need. He has a useless Peach Blossom Immortal Soul. For him to have such a skill that increases Luck is already a miracle. What do you think he can achieve?”

“This… but when you took Tang Sirui in, you didn’t say that! Isn’t Tang Sirui’s Immortal Soul even weaker?” Dragon YuYan was a little incredulous; it seemed some kind of filter had shattered.

“Heh heh, you’re still too naive! You wouldn’t really think that Tang Sirui only has one Immortal Soul, would you?”

“What?! You, you mean…”

“That’s right, he was born with two Immortal Souls. His other Immortal Soul is incredibly noble! That’s the important reason I took him as my disciple!”

“Incredibly noble? Could it be even more powerful than my Long family? Where does it originate from?”

Yu Gang glanced at her indifferently.

“You’re short-sighted. Now is not the time to tell you. Let’s talk about Chen Xuan’s problem first!”

“What problem does he have?” Dragon YuYan heard Yu Gang’s disdain towards her and suppressed her anger as she asked.

“He himself has no problem. The problem is that he is simply not worth cultivating! We don’t need him at all right now, and taking him in now is just for his medical skills and Qi Luck Peach Blossom!”

“And, protect him for a period of time. He should be grateful to me!”

“You…!” Dragon YuYan was so angry she didn’t know what to say, but due to their relationship, she still suppressed her anger:

“How did you become like this?!”

“It’s not that I’ve changed, but rather the academy’s plan from the beginning was like this. There are only resources for those seven people, and… Chen Xuan is a support, he can’t make any waves!”

Dragon YuYan took a deep breath: “I understand. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first.”

“Mm, by the way, from now on, you should interact less with this Chen Xuan. He’s a lower-class person from the Lower Realm. Give him some resources to produce Peach Blossoms, and when his Luck is almost enough, sell him for a good price. I don’t want him to extort me later!”

…

Leaving Yu Gang’s room, Dragon YuYan returned to her own room in extreme depression, only to find Chen Xuan standing at her door, waiting.

Seeing this, she forced a smile and walked over:

“What’s wrong, Chen Xuan? Why didn’t you go back to your room? Why are you waiting outside?”

“Nothing, I just heard that Master seemed to yell at you, Master’s wife. I was especially worried that you two were arguing, so I came to ask!”

Chen Xuan’s well-behaved and sensible appearance made Dragon YuYan’s emotions crumble. She couldn’t help but step forward and pat his head.

‘He’s clearly so sensible, I really don’t understand why you all dislike him so much! Is it just because he’s from the Lower Realm?’

“No, Xuan’er, don’t worry. There’s… nothing to say between him and me. Just focus on Cultivating!”

“You say nothing is wrong, but your expression can’t fool me, Master’s wife. Did Master scold you? I’ll go find him now and get justice for you!”

“Don’t go!” Dragon YuYan grabbed Chen Xuan’s hand, but Yu Gang’s words about her being short-sighted kept echoing in her mind.

“You going will only make things more chaotic, don’t go!”

“But… I can’t just watch you suffer, Master’s wife!” Chen Xuan looked pained.

“Your Master… he just has that temper. Master’s wife is already used to it. Don’t provoke him anymore. This matter will be fine in a few days. Master’s wife is already very satisfied that you care!”

Chen Xuan stopped, looking shocked and heartbroken.

He tightly held Dragon YuYan’s hand: “Master’s wife, have you always lived this kind of life? Now that you’ve suffered, you’re still thinking of me… How can I ever repay your kindness?!”

Seeing this, Dragon YuYan’s emotions immediately erupted. She didn’t want to cry, but she couldn’t stop herself.

Growing up as the legitimate daughter of a prominent family, she had never experienced any grievances. Everything had always gone smoothly for her. But one day, she met Yu Gang and fell hopelessly in love with him. Thus, she experienced the feeling of being wronged.

And the feeling of being wronged is also very strange.

When everyone misunderstands you or ignores you, even if you feel wronged, you can bear it.

But at this moment, if someone suddenly comes along who understands you, knows you, points out your grievances, and knows you’re hurting inside, then the emotions you’ve accumulated over the years will erupt.

Of course, there’s also another situation: if the person who wronged you apologizes, it will also cause an eruption, but clearly Yu Gang is not in this category.

But why did Chen Xuan know Dragon YuYan was wronged? This still has to be attributed to Yu Gang.

The Formation Dragon YuYan had casually set up earlier was one Yu Gang had given him before, so he understood this Formation well. The conversation between the two of them entered Chen Xuan’s ears completely.

This Yu Gang was indeed a Genius in some aspects, but his emotional intelligence was too low. He spoke without thinking, saying whatever came to mind, which could easily hurt people.

Especially when your cultivation is low, and Dragon YuYan’s cultivation is high. She stays with you despite public opinion, yet you constantly hurt her with your words, which will make her feel even more wronged.

So, the considerate, warm, and heart-touching Chen Xuan personally came out to “understand” Dragon YuYan, allowing her emotions to erupt.

The effect was also very obvious. At this moment, Dragon YuYan’s face was covered in tears, looking extremely sad, clearly having endured a lot of suppressed anger over the years.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan also set up a soundproofing Formation, then took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, but the tears kept coming, seemingly endless.

“Master’s wife, please don’t cry. Seeing these tears, my heart aches so much!”

Chen Xuan put down the handkerchief and reached out his hand to wipe her tears.

‘You kept patting my head, now I finally get my revenge!’

“Wuwuwu! Master’s wife, Master’s wife doesn’t want to cry, but my heart just hurts and I can’t stop! Why is your Master like that? It’s clearly not my fault, yet he still treats me like this, wuwuwu!”

Dragon YuYan was extremely heartbroken at this moment and no longer cared about Chen Xuan. She directly leaned against him, constantly wiping her tears on the front of his clothes.
