After Favorability Is Maxed

I’m Just an Ordinary Person

Liu Yuan returned to his own courtyard. When he looked up, he saw a familiar pair of long, slender legs.

Fu Huan was still oblivious to this. She stared at the moon in the sky in a daze. She seemed to have thought of something and frowned in deep thought.

She was not even wearing any shoes or socks, and her slender, white feet were exposed. She swayed left and right, and the silver rings on her ankles made a slight sound.

Liu Yuan did not say anything, and he was doing it on purpose.

With his current cultivation, Fu Huan was no longer a match for him.

Naturally, she would not be able to discover him.

Liu Yuan did not intend to say or do anything more. Having dozens of pages of cards was enough to give him a headache. Did he want to cause more trouble for himself?

However, just as he was about to leave, he stopped in his tracks and noticed that the progress bar above Fu Huan’s head had increased.

Liu Yuan was stunned. This... When did this happen?

Was it because of the promise of the monkey wine or some other reason?

Liu Yuan thought that he could not just go up and ask directly. Anyway, it was... A good thing.

However, Fu Huan noticed him when he hesitated. She quickly tidied her skirt and realized that his feet were still bare. She could not wrap them up no matter how hard she tried. She could only put his feet together as if nothing had happened. She hugged her knees and pretended to be calm. “Y-y-you... Why are you here?”

“…” Liu Yuan’s expression was subtle. Your expression isn’t calm at all, okay?

He landed on the roof in the blink of an eye and sat next to Fu Huan, whose ears were red. He said, “I sent Siyin to bed and just came back.”

He said this as if it was a matter of course. Fu Huan wanted to ask, ‘As a teacher, how did you enter the Gu family’s young lady’s boudoir?’

But she swallowed it back and changed it to: “Oh.”

Liu Yuan looked at the bright moon in the sky. For a moment, all kinds of emotions that he had not been able to recall after transmigrating surged into his heart, and he felt a little empty and melancholic.

He was not homesick. Although he had family and friends, to be honest, his relationship with his parents had always been lukewarm, and his friends were only average.

He had been living in the dormitory since junior high school and had little contact with his parents after university.

No matter where he was, he was a person with no sense of existence, but he had found his place in this strange and familiar world.

Or perhaps... It was a position that originally belonged to him.

Liu Yuan turned to look at Fu Huan and asked, “Do you miss home?”

Fu Huan was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and said softly, “Yes, sometimes when I have nothing to do, I will think about whether the harvest at home is good this year, whether my parents are tired or sick. They are all ordinary people, not as strong as me, and it is inevitable that life will be a little difficult when I am old.”

“The salary given by Chiyu Villa should be enough to support them, right? why...” Liu Yuan asked, puzzled.

Fu Huan’s expression was a little sad as she shook her head, “They don’t want it.”

She hugged her knees and smiled at Liu Yuan, “Because I practiced martial arts and went out in public, they don’t want to recognize me anymore. I abandoned my family name and adopted the name Fu Huan... Later, they gave birth to a younger brother. I went to see him the year before last. He was very serious about his studies in the private school. He will definitely be able to get a good position in the future.”

Liu Yuan was silent for a while, then he smiled and said, “That’s good. I think your parents should be very happy.”

Apart from the ecosystem of Immortal cultivators, the lives of the mortals in Central Continent were not very different from the ancient times that Liu Yuan knew.

He had no intention of criticizing them. He only hoped that one day, if he could, he would be able to change them.

that’s right. Fu Huan nodded and smiled. “They’re very happy with my brother. Although I can’t help them much, I’m happy that they’re living a better life.”

She looked at Liu Yuan with an indescribable look in her eyes. “How about you? You don’t seem to mention anything about yourself.”

Liu Yuan only shook his head. Suddenly, he had the desire to speak frankly, “I’m just... An ordinary person.”

Fu Huan’s expression was one of ‘you’re a lying ghost’.

Liu Yuan laughed and deliberately teased, “It’s true. I’m weak and I don’t know any martial arts. Immortal cultivators are all liars. These people have all been fooled by me and believe everything I say. Am I not powerful?”

... Fu Huan was speechless.

Liu Yuan seemed to be very encouraged and smiled proudly. “it’s true, it’s true. I’ll tell you about this. I’m only telling you because I treat you as a friend.”

Fu Huan looked at him suspiciously, thinking, ‘You’re obviously trying to make fun of me.’

“Do you believe me or not?” Liu Yuan urged.

Fu Huan nodded. “Okay, okay. I know. You’re right.”

Liu Yuan’s interest was suddenly piqued. “Let me tell you, in my hometown, the land is round, not flat like Shangyang. The sun and moon are the same. The people are all ordinary people, but knowledge is power. There are many interesting things...”

Fu Huan listened quietly and felt that it was ridiculous. It must be a lie to make fun of her.

However, it sounded interesting, and Liu Yuan’s eyes seemed to be reminiscing or saying goodbye, so she did not interrupt and listened to lies for half a night.

However, she did not know that these few sentences were the few truths that Liu Yuan had said ever since he transmigrated.

…

Liu Yuan did not sleep the entire night as he had a long conversation with Fu Huan.

Fortunately, he was now a genuine Immortal cultivator, so he no longer had to worry about dying while he slept.

Fu Huan, on the other hand, looked a little tired. She went back to her room to rest for 15 minutes.

Liu Yuan walked out of the courtyard and went to find Xue Yan first.

He had been keeping in touch with Ma Shu for the past few days. He had already found out that the meeting with Xue Yan would be in two days, using the special contact method of the demonic sect.

This further dispelled Ma Shu’s suspicions.

Xue Yan was studying magic in his room.

Buzzzzzz!

Liu Yuan instantly appeared in front of Xue Yan, giving the latter a shock. He quickly cupped his hands in obeisance, “Senior!”

Because Liu Yuan had said that he lived in the villa, Xue Yan could find out his identity by asking around.

Naturally, he had found out that Liu Yuan was Gu Siyin’s master and was a powerful cultivator. Furthermore, he had an ambiguous relationship with the Eldest Miss of Water Moon Dock, so he was naturally very respectful.

Liu Yuan raised his hand, and a force of spiritual energy lifted Xue Yan up.

“In these three days, have you thought clearly about why Water Moon Dock forced you to come over and propose marriage again?” he said indifferently.

Xue Yan became nervous and said in fear and trepidation, “This... I really don’t know.”

Nonsense, Liu Yuan did not believe it at all.

Liu Yuan sighed. “It’s the demonic sect. Whether it’s you or the Water Moon Dock, you’ve all been used as tools by those guys. Do you understand?”

“Demonic sect’s... Tool?” Xue Yan was confused and panicked.

Liu Yuan nodded. “That’s right. Do you know what a tool is? The kind that could be thrown away after one use. In a few days, the people from the demonic sect will come to find you. They will tempt you to join their organization, give you everything you want, and teach you techniques... But you don’t know that the techniques they teach are parasitic in nature, and you, my friend, will be the host for the parasite.”

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Xue Yan. Looking at the boy’s frightened eyes, he mimicked the old Demon Dragon’s tone and said, “When that time comes, you can only listen to them and not resist. In the end, when your value is exhausted, they will abandon you.”

“Then, then what should we do?” Xue Yan asked in a trembling voice.

“Power!” Liu Yuan clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze deep. “You need power.”
