I Just Wanted to Live, but I Somehow Became Better Than the Main Character Chapter 13: Crippling One’s Own Cultivation

Young Master Ye, lets all both be honest and straightforward. The spirit tea had a calming effect, allowing Qin Shi ng to temporarily put aside her prejudices against Ye Yong.

Please speak, Lady Qin, Ye Yong said.

I know what you were trying to accomplish by canceling the engagent, and I hope that you can stop acting so childishly. It may bother , but it will not affect my determination and will only make hate you more. Qin Shi ngs character and speech were straightforward, and Ye Yong liked that. However, he didnt understand what Qin Shi ng ant by saying that canceling the engagent was childish.

Lady Qin, I dont understand what you an. Why do you think that canceling the engagent is childish? Isnt that what you always wanted?

Ha. Ive already said for us to be honest and straightforward, and yet here you are, still trying to lie and be deceitful. Although it was a cold laugh, Qin Shi ng still looked extrely beautiful when her mouth curved.

Ye Yong hurriedly looked away from Qin Shi ng and looked into the distance. Im not lying. Everything I said was true. I canceled the engagent to give you your freedom back, if you think that everything is because of , then there is nothing that I can say. If there is anything that I can do to help you or compensate you for the troubles I caused, I am willing to do it.

Qin Shi ng stared at Ye Yongs face and couldnt tell whether he was being serious or just acting. Ye Yong had given her a really bad impression, and this contrast with how she thought of Ye Yong made her surprised and uncomfortable. She thought that everything was within Ye Yongs calculations. Is that true?

Words that co out of a gentlemans mouth are impossible to recall. Ye Yong said, looking at Qin Shi ng.

The mont Qin Shi ngs and Ye Yongs eyes t, Qin Shi ng thought that Ye Yong wasnt Ye Yong but rather soone else. This was because eyes were the windows to ones soul and can reveal a ton of emotions. Cultivators were especially sensitive to these things.

Could he be possessed? But the Ye Family has so many Nascent Soul Realm elders, and Ye Yong would have to have discussed canceling the engagent with the elders, so if he really got possessed, there was no way they wouldnt realize that sothing was wrong Could it be qi deviation? But Ive only ever heard of qi deviation turning good people into bad people and never the other way around. Maybe he obtained enlightennt or sothing? Qin Shi ng thought that Ye Yong must have had set up so kind of a trap, and she didnt want to fall into the trap, so she shook her head. There is nothing that Shi ng wants Young Master Ye to do.

There must be. It doesnt matter what it is, even if you think that its sothing that I cant do, even if its related to cultivation, Ye Yong baited. Normally, crippling ones own cultivation was sothing that cultivators would never ever do, but Ye Yong was actually eager to do so. First, he had never cultivated before and didnt even know the basics of cultivation. Crippling his cultivation would allow him to start from the beginning and learn the basics. Second, he had the Physique Forging Encyclopedia, and even if he wouldnt be able to forge a divine physique, he would at least be able to forge a saint physique or sothing. Whatever it was, it would be better than his current physique. Crippling his own cultivation would allow him to start while possibly even increase Qin Shi ngs favorability rating, allowing him to kill two birds with one stone.

Qin Shi ng froze. She was just a 17-year-old girl and had spent most of her ti cultivating, so she wasnt schemy or manipulative and had a pretty innocent mind. She thought about the things that Ye Yong would dare to do. Cultivation? Could Young Master Ye be willing to cripple your own cultivation?

As expected, when Ye Yong ntioned things both impossible to do and things related to cultivation, Qin Shi ng thought of crippling cultivation, as no normal cultivator would dare to do such a thing.

Qin Shi ng wanted to laugh at what she said as soon as the words co out. She felt that she was stupid as there was no way Ye Yong would agree to such a thing. That was fine though, as Ye Yong had said that a gentleman wouldnt go back on his words, and he would probably get angry from embarrassnt at hearing such an impossible request, and his disguise would probably be blown. Qin Shi ng waited for Ye Yongs answer, and unexpectedly, Ye Yong agreed to her request.

Young Master Ye, you really will cripple your own cultivation? Qin Shi ng was shocked. She looked at Ye Yongs eyes and felt that Ye Yong was being serious.

Of course. I will do what I say, but after I do so, it would an that you have forgiven for what I did before, and the two of us will no longer have anything to do with each other.

Qin Shi ngs body trembled from the unexpected response. She didnt believe that Ye Yong would really do such a thing.

Ye Yong had obtained the knowledge from the Physique Forging Encyclopedia and knew where the basic veins and dantian were located in the human body. He gathered qi in his hands and aid at his dantian.

Seeing that Ye Yong didnt hesitate at all, Qin Shi ng imdiately forward and stopped Ye Yong.

Lady Qin, what are you doing? Ye Yong asked. He had also been planning to rebuild his foundation. The system was selling a Foundation Establishnt Encyclopedia for 1,000 transcend. Although Ye Yong didnt know whether or not crippling his cultivation would increase Qin Shi ngs favorability rating, Wu Xue would always be by his side, so it wouldnt be difficult for him to get 1,000 transcend points.

Young Master Ye, you win. Qin Shi ngs face was pale, and tiny beads of sweat erged on her forehead. If she had hesitated earlier, Ye Yong really would have crippled his own cultivation.

Would Qin Shi ng be happy if Ye Yong crippled his cultivation? Not at all. Ye Yong might have always been above her and had taken away her aura of a genius child, Qin Shi ng didnt want to take the aura back in such a vicious way. She would fight fair and square for what she wanted.

They were already at the Foundation Establishnt Realm, and Ye Yong crippling his cultivation would an that he would have to start over and be behind by a lot. Besides, there could even be hidden injuries left in Ye Yongs Dantian, which would affect his future cultivation. The other thing was that Ye Yong was the genius of the Ye Family and the Great Zhou Dynasty. If Ye Yong really crippled his cultivation because of Qin Shi ng, the Ye Family would definitely not let the Qin Family go.

Young Master Ye must have known that I wouldnt just stand by and let you cripple your cultivation, right? Qin Shi ng said, thinking that her words wouldnt have any effects on Ye Yong. However, you are very courageous. Arent you afraid that I wont be able to stop you in ti?

I have never thought that you would stop . Ye Yong had thought that Qin Shi ng was eager for his cultivation to be crippled.

Young Master Ye, youre joking. If you really crippled your cultivation, then Im sure that my Qin Family wont be able to stay in the Great Zhou Dynasty anymore.

Ye Yong hadnt thought that deeply and had only wanted to start from the beginning so he could get familiar with cultivating while improving his foundations. Now that I think about it, with the Ye Familys dotingness and craziness, the Qin Family will definitely have to pay a price if sothing really happens to . Then how about you change your request, Lady Qin?

I never had a request in the first place, and I apologize for saying such a rude thing just now. If the engagent cancellation is real, and you and I will no longer have anything to do with each other, then this is the best outco for . Qin Shi ng could no longer see through Ye Yong. Previously, it was easy for her to guess Ye Yongs intentions, but the current Ye Yong felt like a bottomless pit to her.

Naturally, what I had said still counts. Ye Yong looked at the favorability rating and was ecstatic to see that Qin Shi ngs favorability rating had increased from -86 to -62, that Qin Shi ngs attitude had changed from [Extre Hatred] to [Hatred], and that he had gotten 2,000 transcend points.

Wait a minute. Ye Yong suddenly rembered sothing. Qin Shi ngs talents were actually way better than Ye Yongs talent. The only reason that she was lagging behind in cultivation was that the ntal that Qin Shi ng was using wasnt really compatible with her physique. Later, when she t the male lead, the fallen immortal elder had given her a new ntal art, allowing her cultivation to soar.

Ye Yong rembered the na of the ntal art and could even buy it for Qin Shi ng in the system store. They would no longer contact each other after today, so giving her such an amazing ntal art would definitely increase Qin Shi ngs favorability rating. Ye Yong wanted to harvest transcend points from Qin Shi ng one last ti before they say goodbye.

In that case, Shi ng bids farewell. Seeing Ye Yong wandering off in his mind, Qin Shi ng felt that there was no longer a need for her to stay, and she prepared to leave.

Lady Qin, please wait a mont, Ye Yong said suddenly.

I knew that there was no way that he had suddenly beco a good person. Everything was surely within his calculations. He just had no choice but to shed his disguise right now because I was going to leave. Qin Shi ng turned around expressionlessly, intending to see what tricks Ye Yong was going to play.

Ye Yong smiled modestly. I have troubled you for so long, so it wouldnt be good for to not compensate you with anything. Ye Yong took out a pen and paper from his storage, spent five transcend points to buy the introductory level of calligraphy, and started writing.

Qin Shi ng took a look and saw that it seed to be a ntal art. She didnt feel anything at first glance, but the more she looked, the more shocked she beca.

Translators Notes:

. ans that a man does not go back on his own words, and no matter what he tries, there is no way for him to take back what he said.

Got my exam grade and got a 60%, literally just passing. Ngl I was actually expecting like 40% or 50%, so 60% is good enough for .

Oh yeah thats how you deal with bad grades if you usually beat yourself up over it, just set your expectations low.
