Chapter 7127 I’ll Give You an Example
This chapter is updated by JustRead.plThe giant battleship tore through space like normal. The atmosphere inside, however, was anything but.
No one said a word. People occasionally glanced towards the three people at the bow of the battleship with worry written all over their faces.
Long Chen lazily leaned back in his chair, and Miao Yin stood quietly by his side. She really did seem like his handmaid. Zi Yan sat not far away, lotus style, on a praying mat. She propped up her chin with her hands and looked at Miao Yin with a faint smile.
Miao Yin was expressionless. She did not seem either happy or sad. But despite her control over her emotions, it was possible to tell that her heart was in no way as peaceful as it appeared. She definitely found it hard to accept this new status.
Zi Yan had been staring at her the entire time. All Miao Yin could do was act calm to conceal her inner turmoil.
Finally, Zi Yan decided to speak up. “Miss Miao Yin, how do you want to thank me?”
Thank you? Why the hell should I thank you!? Even knowing that Zi Yan was doing it on purpose, Miao Yin felt a sense of humiliation well up inside her. She didn’t respond.
Zi Yan giggled. “You should know that your master has many wives, but you are the only maid!”
Miao Yin took a deep breath. Doing her best not to be emotional, she said, “If my guess is correct, you should be the master of the Heavenly Devil Zither, Fairy Zi Yan!”
Everyone on the battleship felt as if they’d been struck by lightning. The master of the Heavenly Devil Zither? This violet-robed woman before them was the master of one of the ten primal chaos divine items?
“Why ask when you already know the answer? You already know everything about us. Didn’t you propose this gamble precisely because you wanted to make a big move?” asked Zi Yan.
Miao Yin fell silent once more. She sighed deeply without saying anything.
She knew that she had been too greedy. But if she had managed to win over Long Chen, she would have instantly soared into the heavens. But were there really such great shortcuts in this world? Many shortcuts were actually difficult to walk, and this time, the shortcut she had stumbled upon turned out to be blocked by an iron wall. To say that she didn’t regret it would be impossible. But even so, she didn’t complain. There was no point in it.
“Ah, it really has been tiring these past few days. My back is sore, and so is my neck. Maybe I’m getting old?” Long Chen sighed and stretched his neck helplessly.
Miao Yin was startled. She struggled with herself for a moment, but ultimately bit her lip, stepped forward, and started gently massaging his shoulders.
Everyone on the battleship clenched their fists tightly when they saw this. Long Chen was truly shameless. He really was treating their mistress as a maid!
“Aiyah, this really feels nice. After fighting for so many years, I can finally enjoy myself!” Long Chen leaned into it. Miao Yin’s hands seemed to have a magical power to them. His whole body felt relaxed, as if every pore of his skin was about to start singing.
Miao Yin remained expressionless, but this time, her face was a bit red. She had never been this close to a man before. It was making her heartbeat quicken.
Miao Yin finally said, “Young master, according to what I know, the Immortal Ascension Gate will lead multiple powerful factions towards your first academy in three days. There’s still some time, so if you want to come up with a strategy, I can help you with that!”
Her eyes lit up a bit after saying that. Coming up with strategies was her specialty.
“No need!” Long Chen his head.
“What?”
Miao Yin stared at him in confusion. Long Chen couldn’t even be bothered to learn who his opponents were? Wasn’t that a bit too arrogant?
“Do you know why you lost?” asked Long Chen, sensing her confusion.
Miao Yin’s hands stiffened. She frowned slightly. She really did feel a bit confused about her loss. When the river of time appeared, that should have meant her victory. But somehow, she had suffered a complete loss. Even with her disposition, how could she not feel resentful about it? Now that he brought it up, Miao Yin was left at a loss for words.
Long Chen still had his eyes closed. He lazily said, “It’s because you wanted to gain supremacy over the nine heavens through strategy, while all my focus is on cultivation. I had a senior in the mortal world who told me that all schemes are worthless in front of absolute power. That’s why if I can avoid using my head, I don’t bother thinking of a plan. My brainpower isn’t even enough to comprehend the Heavenly Daos, so how can I waste it on other things? With my focus pulled in a million different directions, in the end I’ll wind up being nothing more than mediocre.”
Miao Yin was startled. That was truly a crude principle, but it somehow also seemed to contain the simplicity of the Grand Dao.
Just as Long Chen said, a person’s energy and time were limited. Focusing on one thing meant taking away from another. There were always many possible paths, but you could only take one.
Miao Yin sighed. “Young Master, you truly are wise!”
Her real strength lay in devising tactics. Her best attribute was control. Her best approach to any challenge was setting up a board that was most favorable to her. That was a skill she had developed by focusing all her time and energy. Yet although she was shockingly talented, she didn’t put her full focus on cultivation. Yes, she was already incredibly powerful, and no one knew her true trump cards, but was she as strong as she could possibly be?
For a long time, Miao Yin had thought she was unmatched in terms of both power and brains. But now that Long Chen said this, she realized that she had been wrong. Unfortunately, it was already too late.
“Don’t just sigh. As my maid, you can sit back and relax!” said Long Chen.
Miao Yin was speechless. Being his maid meant that she could relax? Only a fool would be relaxed about such a thing. She couldn’t feel any joy from this.
Long Chen suddenly smiled. “Just because you’re my maid doesn’t mean that you have to give up your dream of conquering the heavens. Why do you look so anxious?”
“Young Master, you…” Miao Yin stiffened. Her main drive had been to conquer the nine heavens. Losing this grand dream would make her feel worse than dying.
Her ice-cold heart once more began to heat up.
“If you’re going to be my maid, then you can’t lose face on my behalf. Since you want to conquer the world, you need to do so properly. Once we get to the first academy, watch and learn. I’ll show you how to do it right!”
Long Chen’s lips curled into a dangerous smile.
