Chapter 93 - The Infectious Dao (2/2)
Tao looked over and couldn't help but inwardly shake his head. In the cultivation world, one truly doesn't know how important strength and wealth is until they've lived hundreds or thousands of years in struggle. Women like Lin Qinlin were a dime a dozen, quite literally. It wasn't just restricted to women either, but men take the same course of actions. Many are willing to throw down their bottom lines for wealth, status, personal power, and most importantly, longevity.
This is why robbery was so prevalent in the cultivation world and why Grux slave culture was required with their population density and resources.
Yan Zaizen didn't take Lin Qinlin seriously. He looked at Lin Feilin's soft hand which was within his own, and couldn't help but have particular thoughts. As for Lin Feilin, she was staring at him with that mesmerizing smile on her face and looked at him as if he was the only person in the world. A little embarrassed, he looked at Bai Lufeng and instructed, ”Let's go.”
Bai Lufeng promptly nodded, executing his movement art and arriving at the helm of the skyship. He brought it closer, for ease of boarding.
Lin Feilin seemed to notice her hand being in contact with Yan Zaizen for a little too long, and she quickly pulled it away. Her expression returning back to its icy-cold gaze and indifferent expression, but it was hard not to see the soft blush on her face. She jumped onto the skyship first, as if trying to avoid his gaze.
Yan Zaizen laughed at this. Yan Zaizen and Tao slowly ascended on the deck, while Lin Qinlin also followed suit. Internally, she was cursing their actions and hoped that nothing too serious takes place. After they realize their overestimation, perhaps they'll even join the Water Veil Sect. She arrived next to Bai Lufeng, her face still containing that flirty shy expression and she engaged in conversation with him.
Tao escorted Lin Feilin to a cultivation cabin as per her request and Yan Zaizen stayed on the deck looking at the surroundings in deep contemplation. Only when Tao returned and arrived beside Yan Zaizen did his eyes show signs of activity. ”Tao, my Dao. Do you…” This wasn't the first time he realized the effect he had on people. In the Deep Mines, he could make others feel fear due to his tyrannical ferocity, and now, he could obviously tell that Lin Feilin was affected by his unyielding confidence and warmth.
He realized that the lower one's soul cultivation base and qi cultivation was, the easier it was to affect them. He feared that her feelings of warmth were gained from his own, and his existential thoughts of them possibly pairing could affect her feelings as well. Could it be...that if she developed feelings for him, it wasn't her own?
This scared him a little.
Tao, however, could only sigh at his thoughts. ”I can't say for certain, but she trusted your word of the Soaring Cloud Sect destruction without a single shred of proof. She trusted you to help her out despite the repercussions if you failed. If she's smart, then she should have realized this. But she didn't.”
Yan Zaizen's heart dropped. Indeed, his dao can inspire confidence not only from himself but to others, and her low cultivation base caused her to naturally trust him. In that case, was it real? Would any feelings she has for him be nothing less than manipulation via his dao? If he said that he loved her, would she respond in kind despite not knowing him more than a month? Despite them not interacting too deeply?
He felt that would be the case.
”I said it before, no one on this continent is worthy of you. If you decide to formulate your own harem, it'll only take a snap of your fingers and the women will pile, but if you want something true, then that'll be difficult. However, if you wait till your dao fully formulate, it shouldn't be too difficult to find someone. At this moment, your dao aura is slowly condensing and becoming stable, but it leaks far too often. When you can prevent that from happening, you'll know it's true. Until then, don't think about it too much or stifle your desires. Act how you wish.” Tao reassured him.
Yan Zaizen couldn't help but feel irritated by this. However, if that's the case, then he'll simply wait. Perhaps he and Lin Feilin had a future, perhaps they didn't, but he'll have to wait until that day comes.
”Those who possess the dao has the grace of the heavens bestowed upon them, what individual can resist willingly? It's like resisting the very heavens, too difficult.” Pinaka's voice resounded within his consciousness. One can hear the sheer bitterness in her voice from these words. However, she didn't say anything else and slowly went back into deep recovery.
Yan Zaizen sighed, his eyes looking at the skies. ”Well, I'm young anyways. I have time.” He comforted himself, his gaze filled with the unyielding confidence of his future.
