I Just Wanted To Live but I Somehow Became Better Than the Protagonist

chapter 45



45

I just want to live a good life but surpass the protagonist – 44 Demon Gate

The cultivators boarded the ship one after another, and as the sun set, the Tianluo Sect’s assessment came to a successful conclusion.

Ye Yong looked into the distance from the bow of the ship. The mountains and rivers were magnificent, and the clouds and mist were lingering. These are not science fiction movie special effects, but the real scenery he saw with his own eyes.

The heart that was excited for a few days when he first crossed over and then calmed down, couldn’t help beating again at this moment.

“The road to cultivating immortals is long and endless, things change, who can live as long as the sky?” Ye Yong held a folding fan and said with emotion, without plagiarism.

After all, I have read a lot of novels, even if I am not a liberal arts student, I don’t have much ink in my stomach, but I can occasionally say some good words and sentences.

Wu Xue was by the side, looking at her young master’s eyes as if she had drunk alcohol, intoxicated.

Apart from the Qin family members, Qin Shimeng only knew Ye Yong and Wu Xue here. She didn’t like to stay with her family members, so she and her personal maid stood not far behind Ye Yong, also looking at the scenery.

Qin Shimeng’s personal maid originally had a lot of opinions on Ye Yong, but as Miss’s view of Ye Yong changed, she gradually lost her prejudice.

At this moment, looking at Ye Yong under the afterglow of the setting sun, his tall figure was elongated, his white clothes fluttering in the wind, and his handsome profile like a banished immortal, looking into the distance, as if he had taken all the world into his eyes, coupled with the vicissitudes that he had said with emotion, it was simply too attractive.

The hearts of many female cultivators on the ship flew over.

Qin Shimeng was also shocked by this back.

Who can live as long as the sky?

It’s hard to imagine that these words came from the mouth of an 18-year-old cultivator. It is full of struggle against fate but helpless.

The reason why cultivators practice is to change their fate, and everyone wants to live longer. But no matter how strong the cultivation base is, who can live longer than the sky? Even if you become an immortal, one day you will eventually turn into ashes and dissipate in the long river of time.

“Wonderful, wonderful.” At this time, a male cultivator who looked like a gentle and elegant son came to Ye Yong’s side.

Ye Yong looked over and didn’t recognize him. But this appearance and temperament is either a villain or the protagonist’s good brother, and the protagonist’s good brother is likely to be killed by the plot, turning into the energy of the protagonist’s explosion.

“What is the name of this fellow Taoist?” Ye Yong wanted to know who the other party was, and then see whether to talk to the other party or not. After all, he is really not interested in men.

“Li Junxia.”

Oh, it’s you. It’s okay, you can communicate.

“It turns out to be Senior Brother Li, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Ye Yong cupped his hands.

“You know me?” Li Junxia didn’t show his face during the assessment, didn’t introduce himself, and it was the first time he met Ye Yong.

“Who doesn’t know the Li Junxia of the Dali Dynasty?”

Ye Yong was not complimenting him, Li Junxia entered the Tianluo Sect at the age of 15 with the cultivation base of the third level of foundation building and the colorful foundation building. He entered on a non-assessment day and was accepted as an inner disciple as soon as he entered. He was a popular figure 8 years ago, just like Ye Yong is now.

It’s just that after entering the sect, I rarely participated in secular activities, so the popularity gradually declined. But in the world of cultivators, Li Junxia is still that formation genius with extremely high talent.

“I thought that after all these years, no more younger generations would remember me,” Li Junxia said with a little embarrassment, chuckling.

Ye Yong was willing to talk to him because Li Junxia was not a short-lived ghost. Although he became the protagonist’s sworn brother in the novel, he was one of the few who could survive to the end.

He was upright and considered a supporting male character that readers liked more.

Most importantly, he had a beautiful sister and wouldn’t steal the female lead. Because he was deeply in love with a mortal girl, it was a pity that as he aged, the girl would grow older and older, while he, as a cultivator, would remain young and handsome. The girl had a low self-esteem and didn’t want to delay Li Junxia’s future, so she eventually drowned herself in a river.

Heartbroken, Li Junxia carved a tombstone for the girl, established her as his deceased wife, and never married again.

Of course, things hadn’t developed to that point yet. Li Junxia’s beloved girl was currently only 19 years old. It would be at least another 10 years before she drowned herself. As for why he didn’t let her cultivate, if she didn’t have the aptitude to even temper her body, how could she cultivate? Sometimes, it wasn’t just a matter of having enough resources.

“With Senior Li’s attainments in formation, you are destined to be famous for eternity,” Ye Yong said with a smile.

“I didn’t expect Junior Apprentice Ye to be such a flatterer,” Li Junxia said, feeling a little awkward. After all, Ye Yong had a seven-colored Foundation Establishment. Logically speaking, he had a more promising future than Li Junxia and was more likely to be famous for eternity.

It was like a multi-millionaire complimenting a millionaire for being rich. How could Li Junxia not feel awkward?

“I never flatter,” Ye Yong said. He was just about to search his mind for a poem to recite and show off when suddenly an attack flew in from afar, hitting the flying ship’s defensive formation and causing a ripple.

“Enemy attack!” “It’s a Demonic Sect cultivator!”

Someone with excellent eyesight recognized the flag symbol on the flying ship in the distance.

Ye Yong had almost forgotten that they would be attacked by the Demonic Sect on their way to the Tianluo Sect.

However, the Demonic Sect that launched the attack was too weak. They had seriously overestimated themselves and couldn’t withstand the Tianluo Sect’s counterattack at all. They suffered heavy losses and would soon retreat. It was just a formality to let the readers know that there was such a thing as the Demonic Sect.

“Don’t be nervous, everyone. This kind of thing happens occasionally. Our Tianluo Sect is well-prepared to deal with it,” Li Junxia reassured everyone. He then said goodbye to Ye Yong and went to find Liang Mengchao and the other hall masters.

After all, how could someone like Liang Mengchao, a great Void Penetration expert, just come to watch the new recruits’ assessment? Their real mission was to escort the new recruits back to the sect.

As a famous and righteous sect, the Tianluo Sect was naturally the most hated by the Demonic Sect.

Good and evil had always been incompatible.

Over the past thousand years, many Demonic Sects had done similar things to suppress the new recruits of righteous sects. Some succeeded, and some failed. However, as a top sect, even the sub-sect of the Tianluo Sect couldn’t be easily defeated by the Demonic Sect.

The counterattack began.

“Boom, boom, boom.” Deafening explosions could be heard in the air from time to time.

“Young Master…” Wu Xue had never seen such a battle before. She was so scared that she quickly grabbed Ye Yong’s hand.

“Don’t be afraid. They’ll be defeated soon,” Ye Yong said, holding Wu Xue in his arms and gently stroking her head.

Young Master Ye, we’re also scared. We also want to be comforted.

Many female cultivators were envious.

What was wrong with this guy? He could treat a maid so well? Some of them were young ladies from prominent families.

Qin Shimeng didn’t have any thoughts when she saw Ye Yong hugging Wu Xue. At most, it just confirmed what Wu Xue had told her, that the young master was very good to her.

To be able to spoil a mortal maid like this, maybe she had wronged him before.

Qin Shimeng’s favorability +2.

Just as in the novel Ye Yong had read, the Demonic Sect flying ship, unable to withstand the counterattack, retreated soon after.

Don’t chase after a defeated enemy. Who knew if it was a ploy to lure them away? Therefore, after seeing the Demonic Sect retreat, Liang Mengchao and the other great experts returned to their previous positions and closed their eyes to rest, as if nothing had happened.

After seeing how the Tianluo Sect dealt with the attack and the strength of their counterattack, the new recruits were even more confident in the sect they were about to enter.

Because Li Junxia was a formation genius, all three of the Tianluo Sect’s flying ships had been subjected to a lot of powerful attacks. He needed to go and check those defensive formations, so he didn’t come back to find Ye Yong.

Ye Yong didn’t have to build a relationship with Li Junxia. It didn’t matter if he came to find him or not. After all, which man could compare to the adorable Wu Xue?

Ye Yong hadn’t let go of Wu Xue since just now. He had been hugging her the whole time.

Wu Xue felt the gazes of the people around her. She was so embarrassed that she buried her face in Ye Yong’s arms.

At this moment, she was also grateful that she had become the young master’s maid.

Favorability +5.
