Chapter One Hundred Fifty-Two: Take Her On a Passionate Romance Experience
To conquer Gu Yingmian.
Honestly, Young Master Sang never considered this option at all.
They say you can only dream as big as your abilities allow. Gu Yingmian is a genuine Grand Master’s Sword Immortal, one of the top powers at the peak of this world.
For someone who could practically solo demon cultivators by herself…
Young Master Sang didn’t think he had the capability to tame her.
So when Nian Nian suggested he should conquer Gu Yingmian, Young Master Sang’s first reaction was rejection.
His life was at stake. If he failed to conquer a Grand Master’s Sword Immortal, he’d probably have nowhere to run.
“No matter how high your cultivation, you’re still human.”
“As long as you’re human, there must be weaknesses, soft spots.”
Nian Nian shot him a condescending glance: “Aren’t you the best at this kind of thing, Host?”
As if he were some kind of scumbag specializing in manipulating women’s feelings.
Young Master Sang thought for a moment and asked, “But what weak spot does Gu Yingmian have? Didn’t you say she’s very innocent?”
“Exactly because she’s innocent. So what’s most important to her?”
“Practicing the sword,” Nian Nian rolled her eyes, “As long as you can help her swordsmanship reach a breakthrough, that’s the biggest conquest of Gu Yingmian.”
“And haven’t you already led her to think that to improve her swordplay, she shouldn’t just focus on the sword but on people too?”
“Since you’ve already tricked her, why not just go all the way?”
“You just tell her that without experiencing emotions, her swordsmanship can’t reach great heights.”
“Then take the chance to lead our Sword Immortal through a passionate romance, let her feel what it means for human hearts to be treacherous.”
Young Master Sang: “…Are you serious?”
“Fortune favors the bold, starvation awaits the timid.”
Nian Nian put her hands on her waist and huffed: “Besides, apart from flirting with girls, Host barely has any other talents.”
“If you want to survive this calamity, it’s all up to your skills.”
After she finished, Young Master Sang fell into deep thought.
Not to mention how difficult it is to conquer a Grand Master Sword Immortal; a slight misstep might lead to his demise.
Even if by some luck he succeeded…
What then? He couldn’t just be a scumbag who starts and abandons things, right?
But if he wasn’t a scumbag, could he take such a divine being home? Would Little Ying accept it? Could Gu Yingmian accept Little Ying?
If they both couldn’t get along, what if a Grand Master Sword Immortal acted impulsively? He wouldn’t even be able to stop her.
With his abilities, was he really worthy of conquering Gu Yingmian?
All these thoughts really made Young Master Sang’s head hurt for a long time.
“Ahhh! Forget it!”
In the end, he couldn’t take it anymore and said fiercely: “Let’s take it one step at a time. If I can conquer her, great; if not, I’ll just back off!”
“It’s just flirting, for crying out loud. In my past life, I’ve played enough gal games to fill a stadium!”
“I refuse to believe I can’t handle one innocent little Sword Immortal!”
——

He said that.
But when Young Master Sang really stood nervously in front of Gu Yingmian the next day and said these words…
Gu Yingmian merely tilted her head slightly, looking puzzled.
“Experience emotions…to sharpen swordsmanship?”
Young Master Sang awkwardly nodded.
“Well, you see, if someone practices swordplay all day, they’ll eventually become extreme and the same goes for their techniques.”
“To truly practice swordsmanship well, you first have to learn how to be a decent human being.”
“And Sister Gu practices swordplay at Sword Flower Palace every day; she’s practically clueless about ordinary life and emotions, she hasn’t even tasted cotton candy.”
“So, I think Sister Gu should try experiencing some emotions she hasn’t before, to sharpen her sword heart.”
“For example… trying out a romantic relationship filled with wind, flowers, snow, and moonlight…”
As he went on, Young Master Sang’s voice got quieter and quieter.
His confidence dwindled with each word.
To be honest, he didn’t even believe such a clumsy excuse himself.
If he couldn’t persuade himself, how could he persuade Gu Yingmian?
At this moment, Young Master Sang could only feel regretful.
How did he let himself be deceived by Nian Nian’s wicked words?
If the next second, Gu Yingmian got embarrassed and angry and pulled out her sword to attack him, wouldn’t Little Ying be left waiting for nothing?
After a brief moment of silence…
Gu Yingmian’s expression turned contemplative.
It seemed she was seriously considering this matter.
Just as Young Master Sang was sweating nervously, Gu Yingmian hesitantly said:
“But… I, I’ve never been in a relationship before?”
Her delicate face seemed to show a genuinely distressed, adorable expression, pouting: “I’ve been practicing swordsmanship in Sword Flower Palace since I was young; there hasn’t been a single man in the entire palace.”
“My master also told me not to leave the mountain until my swordsmanship reached great heights, so I’ve hardly met any men.”
“Even if I wanted to find someone to try dating, there aren’t any options…” she said regretfully.
Young Master Sang saw no trace of hypocrisy in her eyes.
It seemed Gu Yingmian really believed what she was saying.
She genuinely viewed dating as a way to sharpen her sword heart, wanting to give it a try with pure intentions.
Logically, since she said it, he should step up and recommend himself.
But Young Master Sang felt truly guilty.
He just felt that it was too strange how easily Gu Yingmian could be fooled.
Wasn’t she deliberately trying to coax him into speaking, only to reveal his sinister intent?
Just as he hesitated, unexpectedly, Gu Yingmian’s beautiful face showed a hint of shyness, and she lowered her head, saying softly:
“Um… Young Master Sang.”
“Sister only knows you as a man at this point.”
“Would you… mind…” she asked, a bit shyly and cautiously: “pretending to be my romantic partner?”
Young Master Sang: “…Huh?”
Seeing Young Master Sang’s dumbfounded expression, Gu Yingmian’s enchanting eyes gradually fell, and she softly said: “If it bothers you, then forget it. Sister was just saying it casually…”
“Oh no, I don’t mind.”
Young Master Sang certainly wasn’t bothered.
He just suddenly felt this world was truly marvelous.
It turned out he really could do nothing at all.
The other party would unconsciously conquer him.
“Well, then I’ll shamelessly play the role of Sister Gu’s little boyfriend?”
Hearing this, Gu Yingmian suddenly smiled gently:
“As long as you don’t dislike your sister. Sister thought you might dislike her for being a hundred years old in cultivation, for being too old and annoying her.”
How could that be… Young Master Sang glanced at Gu Yingmian.
Gu Yingmian started practicing very early. When she reached the stage of transformation, she was probably only in her early twenties.
So much so that now, her appearance was still fixed at the most youthful and charming age.
Just based on that pure and otherworldly face, she could enchant countless cultivators and astonish the entire cultivation world.
Walking together with Young Master Sang, they did seem like a pair of siblings close in age.
“Well, in these few days.”
“Just burden me, dear brother, to show sister what it’s like to experience the romance of ordinary people.”
Gu Yingmian smiled at Young Master Sang and winked.
