Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 143: Demon Plants Forest 22

When Lin Xiang saw the look, her eyes widened and unconsciously shook her head.

"The eighth prince doesn’t have to worry about that." Lin Xiang said but Li Wenqiang didn’t seem to understand.

He looked at her with a confused expression and Lin Xiang almost groaned.

"Shen Xu hasn’t already taken my pulse. There is no baby." She bluntly said and Li Wenqiang couldn’t help but be shocked.

He hadn’t thought about the possibility of a baby.

Now that he knew there was no child, he was simultaneously relieved and disappointed.

"Miss Lin has misunderstood. My decision has nothing to do with the possibility of a baby." The man said.

"If not..."

"I can still pursue the ruthless way. However, my body is no longer perfect and my future achievements can only be mediocre."

Hearing this, Lin Xiang lowered her head in embarrassment.

"I am sorry." She said but Li Wenqiang shook his head.

"You neither poisoned me nor did anything to harm me. I can only conclude I wasn’t meant to walk the ruthless way."

When she heard this, Lin Xiang couldn’t help but admire Li Wenqiang.

Unlike her, Li Wenqiang was decisive and didn’t hesitate to make difficult decisions.

’Unfortunately, we met too late.’ She thought.

In her heart, Lin Xiang still hoped to meet Song Wancheng again.

Maybe it was because they never got to be together, but she always felt they had an unfinished fate.

Until she dealt with this knot in her heart, Lin Xiang didn’t think she could be with anybody else.

Thinking of this, she sighed and looked at Li Wenqiang.

"Even if the eighth prince will no longer pursue the ruthless way, he should choose his taoist partner more carefully." Lin Xiang advised and Li Wenqiang nodded.

"I am aware that young miss Xiao was wrong about miss Lin. I would propose marriage if I didn’t think miss Lin is a good person."

"Just because I am a good person is not reason enough to marry me. The eighth prince should learn more about love and true companionship." Lin Xiang said and quickly continued before Li Wenqiang said anything.

"I know the eighth prince wants to take responsibility for that incident. However, we can’t joke about marriage. Let’s forget this matter."

"I can wait until miss Lin is willing to marry me." Lin Wenqiang said and Lin Xiang couldn’t help but frown.

"The eighth prince should also know there will soon be an opportunity to leave the Canglan continent. I plan to leave and can’t stay here to get married."

"I also plan to leave." Lin Wenqiang said and quickly continued.

"Why don’t we try to get along before we decide whether we are suitable?"

"I..." Lin Xiang started to refuse but Li Wenqiang interrupted her.

"Let’s leave it at that for now. We should go back." The man turned around and Lin Xiang groaned in frustration.

’What a stubborn prince.’ She thought.

While returning to the clearing, the two encountered dozens of foundation establishment realm cultivators.

"Fellow daoist, why did you leave the clearing?" Lin Xiang stopped a random cultivator.

"What’s the use of staying? The longevity fruits are about to ripen and I don’t want to get involved." The male cultivator said and Lin Xiang nodded in understanding.

"Thank you." She said and continued towards the clearing.

When she and Li Wenqiang arrived, they found the longevity fruit tree had begun to gather qi.

Most importantly, only ninety-seven foundation establishment realm cultivators remained in the clearing.

"Miss Lin, I will come to visit you after we leave the secret realm." Li Wenqiang said and without waiting for her answer, the man walked towards the other members of the Dry Mist Empire’s royal family.

Seeing this, Lin Xiang shrugged and went to stand beside Shen Xu.

[Has the matter been resolved?] The double asked and Lin Xiang sighed in resignation.

[He plans to wait for me.]

[What about you?]

[What about me? I made myself clear but he still wants to wait. What can I do?]

[It doesn’t matter if it’s with Song Wancheng, Li Wenqiang, or someone else. I hope you will find love and be happy.]

[Thank you.] Lin Xiang nodded but she wasn’t optimistic.

As a human and as a woman, she yearned for love.

However, love was the rarest thing in the cultivation world.

From what she knew, it was easier to ascend than to find true love.

’Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu aren’t the norm. They are the exception.’ She thought and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes. freёweɓnovel.com

"Lin Xiang, do you want to hide in the tent until we get the longevity fruits?"

"Okay."

After that, Lin Xiang went into the tent while Shen Xu waited for the fruits to ripen.

At the same time, he looked at his competition.

Of everyone, he was most concerned about Xiao Weimin and Zhu Huang.

After all, Xiao Weimin was the child of luck while Zhu Huang had a powerful system.

Fortunately, Shen Xu wasn’t without a golden finger.

No matter Xiao Weimin’s luck or Zhu Huang’s system, Shen Xu didn’t believe they could overwhelm his brother Yuan.

After all, Zhen Yuan was the most beloved of heaven’s children!

Thinking of this, Shen Xu unconsciously chuckled.

’I can’t wait to see how things turn out.’ He thought and eagerly looked at the longevity fruits’ tree.

Three hours later, the tree finally stopped gathering qi.

At the same time, its dark green fruits became light green and seemed to be glowing from the inside.

"They are ripe." Someone shouted and all hell broke rose.

Instantaneously, dozens of golden core realm and foundation establishment realm cultivators rushed towards the tree.

These dozens included Shen Xu, Xiao Weimin, Zhu Huang, Li Wenqiang and others.

For the longevity fruits, Shen Xu did his best.

As soon as the tree stopped gathering qi, he activated his inscribed robe and flew towards the treetop.

"Stop him." Someone shouted and Shen Xu sensed an attack rushing towards him.
