Chapter 240: Never Met
What was Jiang Lisheng thinking? What words could he listen to?

She tried her best to ignore the powerful and secretive spiritual sense, followed him to the table, and pouted, "Let go first."

Wei Qinglan glanced at her and let her go.

Jiang Lisheng rubbed his wrist and muttered, "You're squeezing me so hard that it hurts."

Wei Qinglan paused, "My fault."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

When did this guy admit his mistake so quickly? She remembered that when they were in the secret land of Qishan, he had wasted half a fish, and she had chased him to make him apologize, and it took so much effort.

Jiang Lisheng's mind was full of doubts. He stepped back to get away from him, but his foot slipped and he lost his balance. He stumbled and fell to the side.

Wei Qinglan pulled her back and said lightly, "Be careful. How come you can't even walk properly?"

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

This Senior Brother Wei must be fake, right? Otherwise, how could she hear such a doting tone?
Terrible!

Before she could doubt herself, Wei Qinglan had already helped her sit on the chair. Seeing that she was sitting firmly, he sat opposite her.

Jiang Lisheng looked at him and forced himself to calm down.

Wei Qinglan glanced at her and poured two cups of spiritual tea. He pushed one to Jiang Lisheng and kept one for himself. He continued the previous topic, "In the Qishan Secret Realm, you blocked the thunder tribulation for me and used your body as a shield to help me get through the thunder tribulation safely. I have no way to repay you for this kindness. I am willing to repay you with my body. The betrothal gifts have been sent to Qingxu and handed over to Uncle Yu after leaving the Qishan Secret Realm. This time I will go to Qingxu in person to prove my sincerity to Uncle Yu."

Jiang Lisheng's heart was trembling, "You, you have already sent the betrothal gift?"

What a joke, why didn’t her master tell her?

"Yes, I have already sent the betrothal gift." Wei Qinglan nodded, "Uncle Yu accepted it."

Jiang Lisheng was confused, "Why would my master agree?"

"Anyway, the betrothal gifts have been given, and all that's left is for me to go there in person." Wei Qinglan ignored her.

"No, no, no, no, Brother Wei, I really don't need you to pledge yourself to me..." Jiang Lisheng kept shaking her head. At this moment, she almost forgot about the powerful and silent spiritual consciousness that was spying on her in secret. She only felt that this was not going to work.

If she had known that he would say this to her when he came to pick her up, she would never let him pick her up.

Isn't this because he thinks she lives too well? She doesn't want Kunlun's Qin Zongzhu to cause trouble for her after he comes out of seclusion. And his master, accepting a betrothal gift? What is he thinking?

His master was stubborn in the face of Sect Leader Qin, but she was not.

Wei Qinglan's eyes dimmed, and he seemed to have lost his patience as she kept shaking her head, "You said no? You don't want to be responsible for me?"

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

What is her responsibility?
She didn't do anything to him?

Her mind raced, and she said seriously and helplessly, "Brother Wei, let's not joke around, okay? Others may not know, but you and I know it in our hearts. It's true that I blocked the thunder tribulation for you, but if it weren't for me, your thunder tribulation might not have been doubled. I was struck by eighteen thunder tribulations during my foundation-building period. At that time, those thunders must have disliked me, so they doubled the number of thunders. They struck you hard while you were with me, and you were implicated by me."

"Since you have implicated me, you should commit yourself to me."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

She wanted to get angry again and glared at him, "I'm talking to you seriously, don't promise me your body. You are Brother Wei, do you need someone to promise me your body?" Wei Qinglan's expression was serious, "I'm talking to you seriously too."

After a pause, he nodded, "missing."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

She wanted to storm off, but she could clearly see that the look in Wei Qinglan's eyes was indeed serious. She was completely confused and puzzled, "Brother Wei, why? Don't talk about pledge of love, you don't need that. Besides, you should know that there is a world of difference between you and me. Besides, shouldn't you only have the Great Dao in your heart?"

"Who told you that I only have the Great Dao in my heart?" Wei Qinglan laughed angrily, "Okay, if you insist on asking why, I can tell you that I don't want to be lonely on the long road of cultivation. It must be great to be with you."

"But I will delay you. Look at me now. I have lost all my cultivation and spiritual power." Jiang Lisheng said helplessly, "There are countless brothers and sisters in the three sects, and countless people in the world of immortal cultivation are walking with you. How can you be lonely? Your idea is simply... unreasonable."

"That makes sense." Wei Qinglan stared into her eyes and said softly, "Others cannot practice with me."

Jiang Lisheng didn't understand at first, but when he met his eyes, he suddenly understood. His palm-sized face instantly turned red, and the hand holding the teacup became unstable, the tea spilled, and the teacup fell from his palm and fell onto the table.

Wei Qinglan raised her hand and steady the teacup that had dropped from her hand. Naturally, the spiritual tea was not wasted and it was all poured back into the teacup.

With every move he made, he appeared relaxed and at ease, as steady as a rock, whereas Jiang Lisheng, who had thrown away his armor and weapons, was frightened and panic-stricken, and the difference between them was immediately apparent.

Jiang Lisheng looked at him, angry and annoyed, but at the same time, an inappropriate thought suddenly popped up in her mind. If she really agreed to him, her good days would be over. As a senior brother, Wei Qinglan would allow her to be unreasonable, treat her well, and spoil her. As long as he could do it, he would agree. But if Wei Qinglan became her husband, she didn't dare to think...

She was afraid that even if there were ten of her, she would not be able to defeat him. It was not about her cultivation, but her temperament. She thought she could not beat him. Wouldn't she be held in his palm and squeezed flat and round in the future?

She shuddered and shook her head, "No, no, it's impossible, I don't want it."

Wei Qinglan was rejected by her several times, and her eyes almost changed, "What's wrong with me?"

Jiang Li held his breath and said, "You're not bad."

Wei Qinglan asked: "Then why don't you want it?"

Jiang Li was feeling uncomfortable holding back his voice and said truthfully: "I don't dare to ask for it."

Wei Qinglan was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Lisheng felt like she was going crazy. Under the pressure of his gaze, she couldn't stand it anymore and negotiated with him, "Brother Wei, I will be your most lovely junior sister, isn't that good?"

"I don't lack junior sisters."

Jiang Lisheng choked, "Then... let's just be friends?"

"I don't lack friends either."

Jiang Lisheng was at a loss, "So what do you want?"

Wei Qinglan looked at her in silence for a moment, then suddenly a ruthless look appeared in his eyes. He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down again. With a clang, the teacup hit the tabletop, making a sound, and he said in a slightly cold voice, "If you don't agree, we will break off our relationship and pretend that we have never met."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

Jiang Li was furious. Break off diplomatic relations? How dare he say that? Who was he threatening?
She stood up angrily, "If we break off diplomatic relations, then we break off diplomatic relations. Isn't that right? Who is afraid of who?"

Today is also the third update, watch the confession scene! Ha~
