Chapter 304: Love Triangle
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Watching Xu Wan’er and Meng Ruyan’s silent battle, Lu Yuan wished he could turn around and run away.
However, he knew that the best thing he could do now was not to turn around and leave, but to stand where he was and do nothing.
If he made any move, it would attract the attention of Xu Wan’er and Meng Ruyan.
At the moment, the two of them were still enemies. However, once he appeared, the two of them might change their target and target him.
At that time, on one side would be the youngest daughter of the Stellar Moon Cave, Meng Ruyan, and on the other side would be Xu Wan’er, who had an Apotheosis Stage patriarch backing her.
As a mere Core Formation Stage cultivator, Lu Yuan obviously couldn’t afford to offend either of them.
After Meng Ruyan struck first, Xu Wan’er was speechless.
The scene fell into a strange silence.
Lu Yuan seemed to be expressionless as he stood at the side like a wooden man.
But in fact, his brain was already working at high speed.
At the moment, it was as if there were two opposing voices in Lu Yuan’s mind, seeking a solution.
On one hand, the emotional Lu Yuan commented, “If it were up to me, you shouldn’t be afraid at this time. Just get them both. After all, you’re not two-timing. You just want to give all the young ladies in the world a warm home.”
On the other hand, the steady Lu Yuan countered, “No, no, no. If you do that, you’d be digging your own grave rather than setting yourself as the patriarch of a family.”
The two voices continued arguing with each other.
“What are you afraid of?! You should just follow your heart! Even one-night stands are considered a kind of affection. Right now, you have to show your emotions and let the two of them know that they both have a place in your heart. Believe me. Since ancient times, only true feelings can win the hearts of people. True feelings are the ultimate way to get through to the living!”
The steady Lu Yuan refuted, “I don’t believe you. If I really do as you say and tell both of them that I have them in my heart, then the greatest possibility is not that the two of them shake hands and make peace, but that they end me. Can’t you tell that these two people are gentle on the outside, but their hearts are hardened? Their competitiveness is engraved in their bones. They will definitely fight for the upper hand in this matter.”
The steady Lu Yuan continued, “Previously, because of her background, Wan’er always humbled herself in front of Meng Ruyan. But now, Wan’er is different from before, especially since she has obviously cultivated the sword. The most important thing in the way of the sword is to have a clear mind. If Wan’er were to have a clear mind at this time, she will either kill Meng Ruyan or me. 1 don’t want to take the risk.”
Faced with such a cowardly and stable Lu, the emotional Lu Yuan immediately sounded disdainful. “You’re already so powerful, yet you’re still so afraid of Meng Ruyan and Xu Wan’er, two half-step Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.”
Although he was looked down upon by the emotional Lu Yuan, the steady Lu Yuan persisted, and Lu Yuan still did not rashly take action.
Lu Yuan knew that he only had one chance to escape unscathed.
Once he missed that fleeting opportunity, he would have to face an incomparably terrifying “battlefield”.
At the same time, outside Lu Yuan’s residence, a few heads simultaneously peeked through the entrance of the cave abode and looked inside.
The few heads were Bai Dafei and Mu Qiqi, Xu Ziyu, and Xu Zile.
Among them, Bai Dafei and Mu Qiqi had just arrived, so they didn’t know much about the situation inside.
With curiosity, Mu Qiqi asked Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile in a low voice, “Fellow Daoists, what’s wrong with Junior Brother Lu?”
Xu Ziyu’s eyes lit up as he looked at the scene inside. His other hand was holding a watermelon that he took out of nowhere.
After hearing Mu Qiqi’s question, Xu Ziyu subconsciously said, “I don’t know much about the exact situation, but Sister Meng and Xu Wan’er seem to both be Fellow Daoist Lu’s Practitioner partners.”
“What?! Junior Brother Lu actually…”
Just as Mu Qiqi was about to cry out in shock, Bai Dafei, who was standing beside her, quickly covered her mouth.
Mu Qiqi looked at Bai Dafei in confusion, not understanding why he would do that.
At the same time, although Bai Dafei had lost one-third of his weight, his chubby face which was still like a round ball had changed from its usual carefree expression to a serious one.
“Junior Sister Mu, you must not make a sound at this time. Otherwise, Junior Brother Lu might die, and the consequences might affect us.”
“Oh my god, Junior Brother Lu’s actually in danger of dying? What exactly happened here?” thought Mu Qiqi, who knew nothing about relationships. She could not imagine the horror of a love triangle. Her two big watery eyes were filled with doubt.
Even Xu Zile and Xu Ziyu looked over curiously.
Although the two of them had been watching the commotion since earlier, they did not know the exact reason for the commotion and the possible consequences.
After all, although both of them were over 300 years old, they had lived as young fox demons for at least 200 years..
