Why am I a villain and still have my own jokes?

"No... let's go..."

Lou Yueniang woke up from her sleep and heard the ravings of the person next to her pillow.

"...Stop it!! Don't continue..."

She closed the gauze dress on her body silently, got up and closed the door and window of the room tightly.

But soon, the raving voice disappeared.When Lou Yueniang turned around, the man had already sat up, breathing slightly with his eyes closed.

Lou Yueniang pursed her lips, walked to the bed, and patted his back lightly:

"Linhan...you're having that dream again."

But the tone of affirmation.

In fact, after the Ling family's "five-year agreement" battle, Ling Linhan's condition was far worse than it is now.When Lou Yueniang saw Ling Linhan again, he was tired and thin, and could hardly sleep at night.

Because as soon as he closes his eyes, he seems to return to the ring of the Ling family, back to the chaotic fight - he can neither save those innocent people controlled by the demons, nor can he save those who were besieged. Ling Yao, who was struggling to resist, was dying.

It wasn't until Ling Yao stabilized his injury in the holy spring and recovered his cultivation that the situation gradually improved.At least in the past few years, Ling Linhan has rarely dreamed of the scene at that time.

Ling Linhan rubbed his slightly painful temples, but the panic and fear in his sleep were no longer in his words:

"Well. Probably because... I saw him today."

"He's still..."

But Lou Yueniang couldn't say any decent words of comfort.If that person forgave him, he wouldn't have avoided him for so many years; but if it was about resentment...except for not contacting him directly, that person has never done anything to retaliate.

It's just that the more indifferent Ling Yao's attitude is, the more painful it is for Ling Linhan who feels guilty - because compared to hatred, "don't care" is always more difficult to deal with.

On the contrary, Ling Linhan smiled helplessly and said comfortingly:

"It's been so many years. If he is really willing to see me suddenly, I'm afraid it will make me terrified. After all... this is the retribution I deserve. If I had made up my mind earlier, or even at that time Time can stop him... That's all. Even if I am now, I can't completely control myself, so why talk about the past?"

He used to naively thought that as long as he defeated Ling Yao, he would have the opportunity to completely control the Ling family, find out the truth, uphold justice, and uphold justice; as long as he became strong enough, he would be able to get rid of the control of Shenlong Academy and obey his inner desires Ideas control your own destiny.

But in the end he discovered that his obstacle was never just Ling Yao, the Ling family, or even Shenlong Academy—the higher he climbed, the more things he did, the more people respected him, the more he became Is bound within the framework of that "respect" - he must be a hero, must be righteous; must be noble, must be correct;

He can't make mistakes, and can't even admit the mistakes he has made-how can the Venerable who leads us to a bright future make mistakes?If there is a mistake, it must be someone else's fault.

On the altar, there is both glory and shackles; but if you fall off the altar, you will only be smashed to pieces.

"It's going to be all right, everything's going to be all right. The day you want... will come soon."

To Lou Yueniang's comfort, Ling Linhan just responded with a faint, self-deprecating smile.

Even if that day comes... Everything in the past can no longer be changed.

But he didn't want to disappoint Lou Yueniang, so he quickly changed the subject:

"At this time, I should wake up too. Today... Chief Xiao will come. I have to ask him to help me bring my things there."

Lou Yueniang naturally knew about it.

Every time Changling Jianmen refused to accept the rare treasures sent by Ling Linhan, Ling Linhan always tried to mix things into the goods traded with the White Fish Gang or the favors given to Xiao Jinian.

At first, the big-hearted leader Xiao thought it was a coincidence, and saw that there were treasures that could help Ling Yao recover from his injuries, so he automatically sent them over.

But after going back and forth, every time it happens to have what Ling Yao needs most, Xiao Ji Nian is not a fool, of course he understands what Ling Linhan is thinking.

Taking into account Yu Lingyao's thoughts, Xiao Ji Nian simply cut off the normal business relationship with Ling Linhan's men during that time, as if he didn't care about the losses in his gang at all.

But later, probably because Ling Yao himself let go, the White Fish Gang and Ling Linhan's subordinate forces began to trade again, and Xiao Ji Nian also began to pretend not to know about Ling Linhan's "little trick".Everyone maintained such a delicate relationship and continued to communicate.

She still remembered that Ling Linhan was very happy during that time.Because from his point of view, at least Ling Yao is willing to accept his "amendment" - even if Ling Yao just thinks "I don't want what I got for nothing", he will feel better in his heart.

In fact, Lou Yueniang felt a little resentment towards Ling Yao's indifference in her heart.

She doesn't know much about those past events, but she has been with Ling Linhan for many years, witnessed his pain and self-blame, and witnessed all the humble gestures he made in order to ask for forgiveness.

Even if there was a definite decision on what was right and what was wrong, as Ling Linhan's wife, she still couldn't help feeling sorry for her husband and feeling worthless for him.

But these are things she can't say.Because she has no right to ask Ling Yao to forgive anyone, and she has no position to beg Ling Linhan to give up such a futile practice—after all, she is just an "outsider who cannot empathize" in this matter.All she can do is to support her husband unconditionally and try to solve his problems as much as possible.

"Don't worry. It's already ready."

Lou Yueniang showed a faint smile,

"There is still plenty of time, take your time."

"My lord! My lord! A guest is coming!"

Suddenly there was a hurried voice outside the door.

Hearing this, Ling Linhan immediately put on the remaining clothes roughly:

"Why is it so early today?"

Just as he stood up and was about to go out to meet him, Lou Yueniang stopped him with her hand:

"I'll go out and have a look first. Maybe it's not Chief Xiao who is here. Even if it is, with your current appearance, I'm afraid you won't be able to entertain guests."

Ling Linhan looked down at himself.Well, the clothes are buttoned crookedly.He turned his head and looked in the mirror again—his hair was disheveled, his collar was turned up in a mess, and he was wearing the wrong shoe—with this appearance, not to mention entertaining guests, even going to see the little guard at the door would be embarrassing .

Ling Linhan scratched her head in embarrassment.This made Lou Yueniang couldn't help laughing slightly.But she quickly coughed twice and returned to her serious appearance:

"You'd better clean up first. I'll go out and have a look first, and entertain the guests."

Of course Ling Linhan had no choice but to agree.Seeing Lou Yueniang pushed the door and went out, he calmed down, rearranged himself, patted his face, and then went out.

However, as soon as he reached the compound, he heard noisy voices outside the mansion gate.

Although he is considered approachable on weekdays, he is still a "sovereign" of the True Yuan Realm, and few people dare to barge in front of his house to make noise for no reason.

Recalling the previous posture of the guard who came to report in a hurry even though he knew he was resting, Ling Linhan realized it later - I'm afraid that the visitors outside are not good.

Thinking that Lou Yueniang had already gone out to deal with it, Ling Linhan suddenly became nervous, and walked out in three steps at a time:

"what happened?"

As soon as Ling Linhan showed up, the crowd who watched the excitement became even more excited.It's a pity that he asked in a deep voice, obviously in a bad mood.Although it's not a big deal to watch the excitement, these onlookers are not fools, so they shut their mouths tightly, for fear that Ling Linhan would offend them, the onlookers, for this matter.

Ling Linhan's eyes were only on Lou Yueniang at first.Seeing that Lou Yueniang was fine, she just frowned, feeling a little at ease, and then turned her gaze to the side.

It's a pity that after seeing this, he saw one of the people he least wanted to see:

"...Fairy Bingling? What are you guys doing? You didn't even hand out a post, and you didn't pass on a notification. You just knelt in front of my mansion with a pitiful appearance. Those who didn't know thought I, Ling Linhan, did it." What did you do to apologize to you, and deliberately let you kneel at the door as punishment."

Originally seeing Ling Linhan coming out, Yin Ruobing had already raised his head and put on a very pitiful look, which I still feel pitiful for.It's a pity that Ling Linhan's single sentence pierced through her intention of using the onlookers to create momentum, and made most of her prepared words useless. In the end, she could only wipe the corners of her eyes hypocritically and said:

"Linhan... I have no other choice...Since the accident in Zixian Pavilion, you never want to see me again, so I can only do this... Even if it was all my fault back then, you should give I have a chance to explain... I have never betrayed you, how could you be so heartless..."

Seeing that Yin Ruobing wanted to divert the matter to the issue of the affair between a man and a woman, and insinuating that he started to treat her coldly because of the downfall of Zixian Pavilion, Ling Linhan became very angry, wishing to expose all the old facts it's -

Where is he sheltering from cold and inflammation?The reason why Zixian Pavilion fell, and why Yin Ruobing and others fell to the point where they had to kneel down and beg him for help, he had calculated for five or six years!

But before he could speak, Xu Anyang, who had stood silently by the side, seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, grabbed him, and shook his head at him.

Ling Linhan's angry reprimand and sarcasm turned around when he got to his lips, and finally he had to turn into indifference:

"I should ask you this question. I didn't see you in the past. Something happened to Zixian Pavilion, so I relied on the little favor back then to come to me for help. You also spread rumors everywhere. It's like me and There is really a dewy love between you, even in front of my wife, you don't know how to restrain yourself. What's your intention?"

Xu Anyang let go of his hand and still sighed.Although his tone was not good, at least Ling Linhan didn't ruin his image in front of others, and he should be thankful if he really told about how he cheated Zixian Pavilion.

Ever since Ling Linhan returned to Shenlong Academy, he couldn't understand himself as a junior.

At the very beginning, he did follow the arrangement of the teacher above, and made friends with Ling Linhan by pretending to be discerning, and even "invested" in him to win favors.

So although he admired Ling Linhan's talent and strength at the beginning, he also felt that this elementary school boy was really innocent and easy to deceive, so he was firmly in the hands of the academy.

But later... Ling Linhan finally had the attitude of a superior person, knew how to plan, play with people's hearts, and even gradually grew up to be able to compete with Shenlong Academy. I feel extremely sorry for the disappearance of that honest and innocent boy.

He is good at calculating and scheming, and Ling Linhan has become sharp-eyed, and he no longer deceives himself and others.So now, they are no longer pure "friends", but more "cooperators", or even "subordinates".This change of identity made him feel embarrassed, but also... relieved.

But only at this time, when those people who plotted against Ling Linhan in the "five-year agreement" reappeared, Xu Anyang could feel Ling Linhan's original youthful spirit of being reckless and willing to be kind and enmity.

Even if he was extremely opposed to Ling Linhan ruining his external image, reputation and connections accumulated on the spur of the moment, he was always "incomprehensible" to stop Ling Linhan's direct revenge...

But why didn't he feel in his heart: ah... this is the Ling Linhan he knew.

"It's all a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. The visitor is a guest, so don't let Fairy Bingling and fellow Taoists kneel in front of the gate, how out of the ordinary? If the fairy has something to say, please come into the mansion to say something.

"As for the other fellow daoists, they must have come here for the Purple Immortal Pavilion. There is only one Venerable Five Elements, and there is no other way to do it. If you have anything to say, Fairy Bingling can say it by herself. Everyone, please go back."

Xu Anyang smoothed things over with a smile, he was neither cold and rude, nor warm to please, and he gave an explanation to the audience.

When the others heard this, they also knew that it was time to "close the door and deal with housework", so they wentssip a few words, and naturally dispersed in a noisy manner.

Ling Linhan turned around and walked towards the courtyard, thinking about Xiao Ji Nian who was about to visit, and only thinking of solving Yin Ruobing's trouble quickly.As soon as the gate was closed, other people came in one after another, and returned to their posts. He immediately lowered his face, threw himself on the main seat, squinted his eyes unceremoniously and scolded:

"Yin Ruobing, don't you understand people's language? I said earlier that I will not help you, and I don't want to see you again! The Zixian Pavilion was defeated and even disbanded. I am happy to see the success, and even applauded! Don't say you kneel Beg me, even if you apologize with death, don't even think that I will help you!"

Probably because he had already exposed his true colors in front of Ling Linhan, and there was no outsider present at this moment, Yin Ruobing simply stopped pretending to be weak, instead he gritted his teeth and asked:

"Of course you're happy to see it come to fruition. If it wasn't for your overt and secret instructions, how could my Zixian Pavilion fall into a wall that collapses and everyone pushes it down, and people scatter like birds and beasts?"

However, Ling Linhan didn't become angry with Yin Ruobing's blunt attack, but laughed instead:

"So you know. Now that you know, why come to me as the 'culprit'? I don't want your lives, and I don't want you to be used by me. I just want your Zixian Pavilion to collapse and completely become the world of Mangsheng history! Just so, isn’t it kind enough?”

After hearing this, Yin Ruobing held his chest tightly and said with a sad smile:

"I don't understand...I don't understand! Why did you do this? What good does it do you? Ask yourself, I did my best to help you back then, and even used the power of the Zixian Pavilion to be your backer...

"I have paid so much, there is no credit but also hard work. Even if I don't! But how have I ever done something wrong to you, so that you want to destroy the century-old foundation of my Zixian Pavilion!?

"Ling Linhan, I don't have any evidence. You are not afraid that I will expose what you have done, and your noble and perfect image of the five elements will be completely collapsed!"

However, in the face of these questions and threats, Ling Linhan was not moved by them, but looked at Yin Ruobing playfully, as if he was watching a joke:

"Are you pretending to be stupid, or are you pretending to be really stupid? When you approached me, befriended me, flattered me, and even hinted that I married Zixian Pavilion, was it really out of love and appreciation?

"Of course not. All of your behavior goals are very clear - because I am the 'Heaven's Blessed One', I can help you revitalize your Zixian Pavilion. Like Xu Anyang, you just want to invest in me for future success. Get a bigger reward.

"To be honest, I don't dislike this kind of 'investment' based on pure interest, otherwise I wouldn't keep Xu Anyang by my side.

"But 'investment' is 'investment'. You can repay your kindness, you can buy people's hearts, and you can even wear a tiger's skin and make a big banner. It doesn't matter, I don't care about these. But you shouldn't, you shouldn't plot to harm my side Others come to add glory to themselves, let alone take the lives of innocent people as your stepping stone!"

Seeing Yin Ruobing's face suddenly turned pale, the sneer on Ling Linhan's face became even worse:

"Don't you really think that the plot between you and 'Ling Feiyu' was unnoticed back then, so no one would know: You wanted to kill Ling Yao, push me to be the head of the Ling family, In order to get a huge favor from me, I actually cooperated with the public enemy of Mangsheng Great World—the Demon Race, and used my trust in you to let the demons attach to me and sneak into the arena, allowing them to confuse people's hearts and harm them. Hundreds of members of the Ling family died!"
