539: Departure is imminent
"You… what did you just say? I allow you to… say it again!" Luo Menglan, fuming, stared at Chen Xuan with an unfriendly gaze.
"No, Immortal Venerable, I never said from beginning to end that I would exchange your appearance for the Point Transformation Technique, did I? After all, my wife is having a bit of a problem right now, and I'm very anxious, so I'm more eager to know what's wrong with my wife. That's very reasonable, isn't it?"
"But you saw my appearance!" Luo Menglan glared at Chen Xuan with a coquettish huff.
"Ah? How can you blame me for that? Isn't it because I was fortunate enough to join your team, Immortal Venerable, and became one of your own, that you personally removed that mysterious mosaic?" Chen Xuan spread his hands innocently, defending himself eloquently.
"I… you!" Faced with Chen Xuan's well-reasoned argument, Luo Menglan trembled with anger, becoming incoherent.
However, upon seeing Chen Xuan's roguish expression, Luo Menglan could no longer contain her fury. She lunged forward, her jade hand swiftly reaching out and grabbing Chen Xuan's collar tightly.
"This Immortal Venerable doesn't care about any of that! Now, immediately, you will impart that miraculous Point Transformation Technique to me!" Luo Menglan shouted, her voice trembling slightly with anger and embarrassment.
At this moment, her pretty face was as red as a ripe apple, luscious and inviting.
Luo Menglan naturally knew that she was being somewhat unreasonable this time, but whenever she caught sight of Chen Xuan's teasing, roguish smile, all reason instantly flew out the window, and she only wanted to teach this hateful fellow a good lesson.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan quickly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, putting on a helpless expression, and argued, "Immortal Venerable, don't get excited! I'll tell you the Point Transformation Technique right now, no hitting, no hitting."
After speaking, he tried to grab Luo Menglan's delicate fist, but she dodged him.
"Hmph, you'd better!" Luo Menglan snorted, releasing Chen Xuan's collar, but still maintaining a stance ready to strike at any moment.
Chen Xuan sighed helplessly at the sight.
He truly didn't want to teach this woman. Not only did she trick him once, but she was also so unreasonable. If his cultivation were higher, he would definitely test how powerful this so-called Space Immortal was!
But he couldn't now, because this vile woman was currently in his Inner World, and coupled with her mastery of space techniques, he couldn't drive her away. For the safety of his wives and children, he had no choice but to suffer this loss.
However, the Point Transformation Technique he taught Luo Menglan was not complete.
"Actually, this Point Transformation Technique is very complex. Its key lies in finding a suitable moment to guide the other party into a special state of mind."
"And then, we…" Chen Xuan eloquently recounted the abridged version of the Point Transformation Technique.
After listening, Luo Menglan's expression softened slightly. She frowned, lost in thought.
Seizing the opportunity, Chen Xuan pressed on, "Immortal Venerable, regarding this Point Transformation Technique, it's not something you can master in a short time. You still need time to gradually comprehend it. Our current task, perhaps, is still to go to your team's side together."
Luo Menglan was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.
...
And so, under Chen Xuan's arrangements, Leng Ruoyun and Yan Ni裳 were both "acquitted," leaving only Li Jingyi behind.
Li Jingyi herself was an Ascender. Although she possessed destiny, in Chen Xuan's view, the little girl had no one to rely on in the outside world and no better place to go, so it was better to keep her at home and raise her himself.
As for Lin Yaoyao and Immortal Qinglan, they were already married, so he could make decisions for them.
"Wuwuwuwu… Brother Chen Xuan, are you really going to abandon me heartlessly?" In the dim, noisy Mining Field, Leng Ruoyun cried, her tears like a breaking dam, streaming down her fair and delicate cheeks.
At this moment, she had completely lost her usual cold arrogance, replaced only by a heart full of grievance and helplessness. She looked utterly pitiful.
Chen Xuan looked at the sobbing Leng Ruoyun before him with a speechless expression: "Silly girl, who said this Young Master doesn't want you? You are my little beauty, once I've set my eyes on you, you'll never escape! You are destined to stay obediently in the palm of my hand your whole life, understand?"
Hearing this, Leng Ruoyun looked up, her eyes misty with tears, and sobbed, "But… but why? Why are you willing to keep that chattering, talkative Li Jingyi, but unwilling to keep me by your side? I, I really don't want to leave Brother Chen Xuan!" After speaking, she couldn't help but cry again.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, then took out an exquisite silver-blue hairpin from his embrace. He gently walked in front of Leng Ruoyun and tenderly inserted it into her cascading hair:
"Alright, don't cry, my dear. Look, I'm giving you this hairpin as a memento. If you ever miss me terribly, just call my name softly to it, and no matter how far apart we are, I will appear before you instantly!"
Then, he turned to look at Yan Ni裳, who was standing to the side, and likewise took out a hairpin and handed it to her: "Here, Little Fire Dragon Fruit, this is your hairpin."
However, Yan Ni裳, whose cultivation had recovered, looked at the handed-over hairpin with a complicated expression. After hesitating for a moment, she seemed to have thought of something and slowly took a step back, coldly replying, "I don't need it."
"It was indeed my fault to be your enemy before, but now you have lifted the Restriction on me and let me go. From now on, I will no longer provoke you. You go your way, and I'll go mine. We'll keep to ourselves. Wouldn't that be best?"
With that, she turned and flicked her sleeve, leaving only a resolute and aloof silhouette behind.
"Wait, did I say you could leave?" Chen Xuan suddenly said.
"What else do you… Ah?"
Before Yan Ni裳 could finish her sentence, her jade arm was already seized by Chen Xuan.
And as everyone knew, no woman caught by Chen Xuan had ever managed to escape.
As for men… he hadn't caught one yet, and he wouldn't in the future either.
"What else do I have? A big deal!" Chen Xuan said, pulling Yan Ni裳 into the bedroom.
