Chapter 90: My Cultivation Method is Rather Special
With Wang Qingchu’s cover, even as a Saint, Ning Mengru was unable to know the situation of the entire Yaochi.
Basically, what Wang Qingchu wanted her to know was what she could know. The gap between the two was too large. To be precise, there was a dimensional gap between a half-step Great Dao like her, who had attained the Dao through an alternative method, and a normal Dao-attaining Great Emperor and Human King. This dimensional gap, even if the strength of a Human King was magnified countless times, could not be compared to a half-step Great Dao and a Great Emperor. As long as one had not attained the Dao, in front of a half-step Great Dao and a Great Emperor, no matter how strong one’s cultivation was, it was only equivalent to that of a mortal. One could never be compared to them.
After attaining the Dao, a cultivator had truly surpassed the mortal world. Except for their lifespan still being very limited, the level of power they could use was already on par with the Dao rules. They themselves were already a kind of world rule.
In fact, looking at it this way, whether it was a half-step Great Dao or a true Great Emperor, their lifespan and their strength did not seem to be on the same level.
At the level of a Saint, one could already leave the Yao Guang star and go to other star domains. And further up, at the level of a Great Saint or a Human King, it was also very simple to destroy a planet. Of course, the Yao Guang star was special; it was covered with formation patterns left by Great Emperors, and it was extremely sturdy and difficult to destroy.
A Great Emperor was an existence that could destroy a starry sky with a flick of a finger. If one did not use something like an immortal medicine, a normal lifespan was only ten thousand years…
Perhaps for a mortal, their lifespan had been increased a hundredfold, and they should be satisfied. But for a cultivator, to touch the Great Dao realm, their strength had already completely changed in nature, but their lifespan had only increased by nearly half. This was very unreasonable. Logically speaking, their lifespan should also have crossed into another dimension.
It was said that those people from the outer realms were immortal. Even Mingyan’s sister, who had been to the outer realms, was immortal… to be honest, if those people from the outer realms could be communicated with, just for the sake of eternal life, many people would betray them, right?
The concept of eternal life, to a cultivator, was almost an irresistible thing.
From ordinary cultivators to existences like a Great Emperor, they were all moved by it.
But the Emperor-level experts of the outer realms seemed to be not as strong as the Great Emperors here. This point was very strange. It felt as if the best state was for the two worlds to merge.
On the other side, Ning Mengru stood in the Queen Mother’s Hall, lost in a long silence.
With Wang Qingchu’s cover, Ning Mengru did not know that Ning Feixuan had just left and had gone to report the situation to Mingyan.
Ning Mengru was still thinking about what she should do.
If she really had to use her identity as Ning Mengru to help Feixuan, then the identity of Yue Ningshuang seemed to have no need to exist anymore…
After all, compared to her identity as Yue Ningshuang, Ning Mengru could indeed help Feixuan better.
Yue Ningshuang was too obedient to Mingyan; Ning Mengru had gotten used to it under the identity of Yue Ningshuang.
So in this situation, she was actually not good at using her own thoughts to restrain and guide Mingyan.
But her identity as Ning Mengru was different. Not only was she Mingyan’s elder, but Mingyan also secretly liked her in his heart. If she used Mingyan’s feelings for her well, she could play a role of restraint and guidance.
But this way, it seemed very despicable… to use Mingyan’s feelings for her to manipulate him… was this something an elder should do?
To use the relationship of an elder and a junior as her own shield, while the things she actually did were not like those of an elder and a junior… Ning Mengru couldn’t help but sigh softly. Did she really have a clear conscience?
In fact, the matter of Yue Ningshuang had already made her unable to have a clear conscience. As Mingyan’s elder, she had actually disguised herself as his peer, and now she wanted to withdraw. If Mingyan really didn’t know, that would be one thing. But if Mingyan knew, and knew that Yue Ningshuang was her, what would he think of her?
Because she already couldn’t have a clear conscience, should she simply rot to the end…?
Do I really have to do this?
Ning Mengru slowly sat down, her eyes a little dazed…
If she didn’t do this, then it would be contrary to her original thoughts. Because the reason for the “Yue Ningshuang” identity was to help Feixuan. Now that there was a better way to help Feixuan, shouldn’t she choose it?
I can’t forget my original intention…
“Aunt Ning,” just as Ning Mengru was still unable to make a choice, Mingyan’s voice suddenly came over. Only then did she look up and see Mingyan, who was bowing. In an instant, her eyes were a little flustered, but the next moment, she suppressed it. Fortunately, Mingyan was bowing his head at this moment and was not looking at her.
“Why are you here?” Ning Mengru took a deep breath, calmed her uneasy heart, and asked.
“I just wanted to come and chat with you, Aunt Ning. Anyway, I don’t have much to do while staying at Yaochi,” Mingyan looked up at Ning Mengru and smiled.
“Why don’t you go and find Ningshuang?” Ning Mengru didn’t really want to see Mingyan at this moment. After all, those complicated emotions in her heart had not yet been sorted out.
“Because I want to talk to you now, Aunt Ning,” Mingyan emphasized. “On Ningshuang’s side, if we want to be clingy, we can be clingy anytime.”
Ning Mengru pursed her lips. Her seat was relatively high, so sitting on it and looking at Mingyan was looking down. And Mingyan, looking at her, had to raise his head.
The status of Ning Mengru and Mingyan when they got along was completely different from the status of Yue Ningshuang and Mingyan when they got along. In the Queen Mother’s Hall, Ning Mengru was an elder, and Mingyan was a junior. And he was very respectful to her. But in Yue Ningshuang’s small hut, the two of them were peers, and a Dao companion who could be touched by him…
The thrill brought by this dual identity, even Ning Mengru felt a great impact. If Mingyan knew, she didn’t know if he would be happy, or angry that she had deceived him.
He said he wanted to come and chat with her. After knowing that Mingyan also liked her “Ning Mengru” identity, Ning Mengru also understood his little thoughts.
Ning Mengru stood up, slowly walked down, and came to Mingyan, a light smile on her face. “It’s rare. But, if you really can’t find anything to do, why don’t you cultivate a little? It’s also a good thing.”
“Aunt Ning, my cultivation method… is rather special.”
“Oh? Tell me about it,” hearing this, Ning Mengru was a little curious. To her, Mingyan’s cultivation speed was indeed ridiculously fast. You know, when they had first met, Yue Wuxia had brought Mingyan to Yaochi. What was Mingyan’s cultivation at that time?
And what was Mingyan’s cultivation now?
“This… this is not very convenient to say. You can ask Ningshuang,” Mingyan coughed lightly and said.
“?” Ning Mengru’s brow twitched slightly. But Yue Ningshuang doesn’t know either?
