The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 830 - 336: The Most Despicable in the Mortal Realm
Lin Yun doesn’t have many tricks up his sleeve when dealing with girls, it boils down to the same thing over and over.
But his brilliance lies in the timing and the emotions he conveys.
Take now, for instance.
How could Lin Yun not know that Qing Nu could see him?
Eh, he pretends to be unaware, and continues to marvel at Qing Nu’s beauty; could Qing Nu get mad upon hearing his admiration?
Of course, Lin Yun isn’t entirely lying, Qing Nu really is beautiful.
Her face is not just beautiful; looking at her face, Lin Yun feels like he could comprehend the Great Dao.
Following down from her face is Qing Nu’s body, her clothing only covering up to her chest, looking both sexy and enchanting. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Whether those are her scales or not on her clothing, they seem quite thin, and further down there is already her tail, a long serpentine tail casually bending on the ground.
The entire statue of Qing Nu is chained to a huge stone pillar, this scene reminds Lin Yun of Ling’er trapped in the Demon-locking Tower in "The Legend of the Sword and Fairy", and because it is a stone sculpture, it brings to mind King Zhou’s poem at Nuwa Palace.
With such a sight before him, Lin Yun feels inspired to write a poem, but then he thinks better of it; flirting with Qing Nu is fine, but if he crosses a line, it could lead to severe consequences. It’s better to be prudent.
After examining Qing Nu for a while, Lin Yun continued, "I came here sincerely to apologize, could you grace me with your presence?"
While saying so, Lin Yun is secretly admiring the beauty of Qing Nu in his mind.
Qing Nu herself must look better than her statue, right?
After all, the statue is gray and quite rough on the details.
Still, Lin Yun is currently finding it a bit difficult to accept a non-human beauty.
But with Qing Nu’s vast Divine Skills, transforming into a human form shouldn’t be a problem.
Lin Yun is wildly blaspheming in his heart, and all these thoughts are clearly received by Qing Nu.
Everything in the world, if it thinks of Qing Nu, she can perceive all related thoughts.
Right now, Lin Yun seems to have forgotten this; his thoughts are bolder than ever.
Qing Nu can only pretend she knows nothing and coldly lets out a sound that Lin Yun can hear.
"The rain has stopped, the person has returned, you may leave on your own."
Before seeing Lin Yun, Qing Nu had plenty to say, but once Lin Yun was in front of her, she put on an attitude of "just go, I don’t want to say a single word".
Lin Yun was startled; he didn’t expect things to go this smooth, he had just apologized, and Qing Nu agreed to let the person go, and also stopped the rain.
This...
By strategic planning, this could be considered a great success.
But having come all this way, just to return so soon doesn’t seem quite right.
What a waste!
With Qing Nu’s assurance to let the person go and the rain stopped, Lin Yun felt there wasn’t much left for him to do, so he might as well have a good chat with Qing Nu here and try to resolve the misunderstanding so they wouldn’t be enemies in the future.
Besides, he had already taken the softer approach; since they’d reached an agreement, he should make some gesture, he couldn’t just turn around and leave after completing his task, or else it would be hard to ask for favors in the future.
However, if Lin Yun were to discuss the apology seriously with her, it might not resolve the conflict.
This is the time to show his real skill.
Lin Yun didn’t say he was leaving, nor did he say he wasn’t leaving; he just exclaimed, "So, your real voice is this pleasant to hear!"
Qing Nu: "..."
She was dumbfounded by Lin Yun’s shamelessness.
Initially, she thought if Lin Yun just went back directly, she would hold this grudge; but if Lin Yun continued to apologize, aiming to clear the previous misunderstanding, she’d have to keep up her airs, making Lin Yun earnestly plead with her for a while.
As a result, Lin Yun didn’t play by the rules and complimented her on her pleasant voice.
Qing Nu was delighted, yet she arranged a row of clouds in front of Lin Yun, forming lines of text.
"If you have something to say, speak up, otherwise leave. Do not flatter me, I’m not buying it."
Tsk tsk tsk.
Seeing these words made Lin Yun want to laugh. Qing Nu seemed cold and unapproachable, seemingly difficult to deal with, but Lin Yun knew he had already succeeded halfway.
He merely complimented her voice, and she stopped talking. What did this indicate?
It showed that every word he said could touch Qing Nu’s heart.
This kind of girl was the easiest to deal with. The most difficult ones were those who were easy to talk to.
The more amiable a woman was, the harder she was to deal with because her heart was as immovable as a mountain and as deep as an abyss, totally unfathomable.
Qing Nu’s emotional fluctuations were already quite apparent.
With just a little more provocation, he could guarantee a breakdown.
Of course, Lin Yun wasn’t really aiming to break her defenses; he needed to stir her emotions, bring her back to calm, stir again, and return to calm.
After a few cycles, Qing Nu could be well-trained.
"Then I will start with the formalities!"
Seemingly following Qing Nu’s command, but actually meant to give Qing Nu’s emotions a cooldown, pausing the teasing.
"I came here not only to look for Qian Qian, but also to address three matters."
Lin Yun looked up at Qing Nu and said seriously, "The first matter, I have already done, which is to apologize to you. The second matter, there are two questions I hope to get your answer."
"What are your questions?"
The clouds ahead once again formed four characters. Lin Yun knew that Qing Nu’s emotions might be falling back, so he spoke, "I want to ask if I have ever hurt you in the past, and what exactly did I do then."
The moment he asked this, Lin Yun suddenly felt the air become heavier, Qing Nu’s aura oppressive, making Lin Yun feel as if he was carrying a mountain on his back.
"Pasts that have been forgotten need not be brought up again."
The words formed by the white clouds seemed even colder, making Lin Yun internally critique nonstop.
This woman’s got some issues.
If I don’t ask, you go on saying how I did you wrong, and now that I ask, you say there’s no need to bring up what’s forgotten.
Is she crazy!
Lin Yun wished he could jump up and retort a few more lines at Qing Nu, but remembering he wasn’t here to pick a fight but to foster a good relationship with Qing Nu and to unearth unknown history, Lin Yun forcibly adjusted his mindset.
It didn’t matter if Qing Nu killed the conversation, Lin Yun could still create new topics.
As if nothing happened, Lin Yun continued, "My other question is, what do I need to do to rescue you? Although I might not be able to do it now, I can try to find a way."
This time, even if Qing Nu was indifferent, it might be hard for her to reject him outright!
Sure enough, Qing Nu was silent for a long time, finally making a sound again.
"Before I answer your question, I have a question for you."
"Please ask."
Lin Yun said politely.
"Imagine a man, who married the most distinguished woman in the world, but during his wife’s pregnancy, secretly had a child with her sister. What do you think, isn’t this man too outrageous?"
"That’s not just outrageous, that’s the scum of humanity."
Lin Yun blurted out, but after he spoke, he suddenly felt something was amiss.
Hey, wait a minute, you’re not talking about something that happened between us, are you?
