Chapter 617 - 0359 Essentially, it is still contradictory (two-in-one)_2
If that’s the case, a first seat position doesn’t seem to make my husband feel any kind of dislike.
Yun Qian, having found a chance to breathe, quietly pushed back the guilt that was about to surge up in her heart.
Evil cultivators are different from the Demon Sect.
Knowing the difference between evil cultivators and the Demon Sect allowed her unease to slowly dissipate.
"Hmm..." Yun Qian nodded.
Upon closer thought, this identity from the Demon Sect that fell upon her husband might also be an interesting experience for him.
She glanced at Miss Aqing outside the window from the corner of her eye.
This woman was not an evil cultivator by her husband’s definition, so she was still someone he could forgive and would like.
Since the identity that suddenly fell upon him was the first seat of the Demon Sect, and not an evil cultivator’s, she didn’t have to be flustered.
Thinking like this, Yun Qian returned to her usual self and gently held Xu Chang’an’s hand.
The girl was at ease.
——
Xu Chang’an: "..."
The boy showed a trace of helplessness on his face, wanting to say something but ultimately swallowed it back.
Yes, that’s what he said.
Xu Chang’an knew himself; he was only saying these things to reassure the girl.
He wasn’t concerned about good and evil, just that the people of the Demon Sect were unreasonable and posed more danger to Miss Yun.
So in his eyes, there were few good people in the Demon Sect.
The cultivators who prided themselves on the Holy Sect were either fanatics or madmen.
Even if their upper echelons didn’t consume blood, they couldn’t be considered evil cultivators, but... the Demon Sect’s upper echelons who condone their subordinates using flesh and souls for cultivation, what’s essentially different from evil cultivators?
If not for these upper echelons of the Demon Sect, those evil cultivators might not even be this rampant.
As for saying that the Demon Sect fears the Chaoyun Sect and that they try to accumulate any usable power under the threat of being destroyed by the Chaoyun Sect at any time, even welcoming evil cultivators, that has nothing to do with Xu Chang’an.
Anyway, saying that the Chaoyun Sect and the Demon Sect aren’t sworn enemies is a lie. The truth is that both sides have concerns and restrain themselves, avoiding conflict for now.
But after reading the dossiers, Xu Chang’an still had many doubts.
Because the attitude recorded towards the two Qiankun Realm leaders of both sides was very strange.
Those records, that kind of high-and-mighty Sect Leaders, in his view...
When the senior sisters read them, they showed great respect towards Sect Leader Chaoyun.
But after Xu Chang’an read the histories of their struggles, it inexplicably gave him a feeling as if the Chaoyun Sect was the Chaoyun Sect, the Demon Sect was the Demon Sect, and the two Sect Leaders were completely detached.
As if they were two immortals seated frostily, playing a game of chess, coldly watching the ants below fight to the death, determined to have a victor.
"..."
Xu Chang’an shook his head, clearing away all the chaotic thoughts that suddenly rose.
Useless knowledge, for someone who has just stepped into cultivation, had no use in understanding.
Even Xu Chang’an himself hadn’t figured out these things, so he wouldn’t mention them to the girl.
Anyway, as long as she’s at ease, it’s fine.
Finally, Xu Chang’an adjusted Yun Qian’s outfit and said, "Miss, we should get going."
"Hmm."
Yun Qian nodded.
So she watched Xu Chang’an get off the carriage to speak with Miss Aqing, saw Miss Aqing holding a short whip, seated in the coachman’s position, and watched Xu Chang’an return to the carriage... lost in thought.
"What’s wrong?" Xu Chang’an smiled: "Don’t worry, Senior Zhu is efficient, even though it’s a banquet, it won’t take too long, we can return early to rest."
After thinking for a moment, he added.
"Besides, we’re all among friends, if you really get too tired, you could just sleep, it won’t matter."
Hearing this, Yun Qian nudged Xu Chang’an, then pointed to the rouge on her lips, and said: "Now is not a time for sleep."
Speaking of being tired, if he ate the rouge again, forcing herself to wake from being tired, what would she do?
"I... never mind." Xu Chang’an, full of helplessness, hugged Yun Qian’s waist, and asked, "If you’re not tired, then why were you in a daze, Miss?"
"Watching her ribbon." Yun Qian looked towards the coachman’s position, lightly shaking her head, "It’s the same as mine."
"How could it not be the same, I bought it from that girl." Xu Chang’an sighed, "Didn’t I tell you?"
"Hmm, I know."
"You know and still say?" Xu Chang’an casually chatted with the girl about trivial matters.
"I feel, they always bear some resemblance to me." Yun Qian said calmly.
Li Zhibai, Zhu Pingniang, Liu Qingluo, and now even Miss Aqing, all had something in common with her.
"What?" Xu Chang’an didn’t understand.
"I don’t understand either."
Yun Qian lowered her head, thinking that at this moment, she still didn’t know who looked more like whom, but judging from the ribbon matter, it was the Qingyi girl who wore the ribbon first, and she used it afterward.
So, she was the one learning from that person.
And Miss Yun was naturally a studious person, so it made perfect sense.
Feeling the warmth of Xu Chang’an’s hand on her waist, Yun Qian wondered if these women in the original timeline were all his fateful encounters, so when she was summoned here and knew everything, she subconsciously learned these qualities from the girls?
After all, these women already showed her what kind of woman Xu Chang’an would like now.
"Could it be like this?" Yun Qian tilted her head, looking at this confused young man before her, seriously said: "No."
Because if he could truly be a bit more fickle, that would be nice.
"???"
Xu Chang’an scratched his head: "I am not? I am not what? Miss, what are you talking about."
"I haven’t figured it out myself." Yun Qian shook her head, then asked, "Does my attire make me look like the Miss Aqing you like?"
"..."
Listening to Yun Qian’s words, Xu Chang’an was speechless: "I thought, Miss, you had forgotten about this."
Yun Qian looked at him.
How could she forget, her outfit was styled after the Miss Aqing whom Xu Chang’an would like, aiming to be as similar as possible.
"Want the truth?" Xu Chang’an blinked.
"The truth."
"Not alike, completely... not alike." Xu Chang’an said truthfully.
"Why?"
"Because Miss is too beautiful."
Miss Aqing, on first sight, gives a clean and charming look, even with a bit of Jiangnan’s gentle beauty.
Miss Yun then?
A fairy from the Nine Heavens, where could she find any connection to the four words ’gentle beauty’?
"As expected, not alike." Yun Qian was not surprised, though a bit disappointed she couldn’t become the Miss Aqing he liked, but since Xu Chang’an also liked this outfit and found it beautiful... it wasn’t an effort wasted.
In fact, she wasn’t really disappointed at all.
Because at this moment, Yun Qian realized something.
After adopting the name Yun Qian, no matter whom she wanted to emulate, she would always only be Yun Qian and couldn’t become anyone else.
Perhaps, it wasn’t necessary for her to learn from other women.
Because no matter how she changed, her husband liked her.
This was what her husband always said, that favored people are always fearless.
So...
It turns out Miss Yun was wrong.
It’s not that she needs to learn from these women, but these women need to learn from her.
——
Only by learning from her, having similarities with her, can Xu Chang’an look at them twice.
——
Yun Qian sighed and said.
"Why do you like me so much?"
The girl furrowed her Liu Mei, uncharacteristically... showing a few signs of distress instead of joy from his affection.
"?"
Xu Chang’an was taken aback, completely stunned, unable to understand for a long time why Miss Yun suddenly said this.
Yun Qian thought, if her husband likes her so much, how can he be fickle?
Without being fickle, how could he be greedy?
If he weren’t greedy, he might easily let go.
She didn’t want him to let go so soon this time.
"I find Miss Aqing quite pretty." Yun Qian pointed at the coachman’s back, speaking sincerely.
"What do you find pretty about her?" Xu Chang’an’s mouth twitched, suddenly having a bad premonition.
Yun Qian shook her head gently, calmly stating: "The ribbon?"
Because similar aspects to her can attract his gaze, so naturally, what was pretty would be the ribbon.
Xu Chang’an: "?"
What was she talking about?
