Chapter 168 The Cold and Aloof Immortal's Darkened Daoist Partner 17
When cultivators form a pact, the oath they swear is a vow of Heaven, bound by the laws of Heaven. If they break it, at best they will develop inner demons and their cultivation will be halted; at worst they will die and their cultivation will be destroyed, with no chance of reincarnation.
Therefore, even if cultivators form a pact, they will not easily make strict vows, and will always leave some room for maneuver.
But Zong Yunze is a ruthless person, and since he originally wanted to put Yun Qing at ease, he naturally did whatever it took to be ruthless.
Yun Qing was so sleepy that she could barely keep her eyes open, so Zong Yunze had to coax her, "Be good, repeat after me, and I'll give you some spirit flower cake when you're done."
Hearing this, Yun Qing perked up a bit and obediently followed him, reciting each sentence one by one.
She repeated every word of the preceding phrase, "to become Daoist partners, to rely on each other, to never leave each other," except for their names.
When she heard Zong Yunze say, "If one is unfaithful, one's body and soul will perish," she prepared to repeat it without hesitation, but Zong Yunze covered her mouth.
Yun Qing: !!!
He's trying to renege on his debt!
Yun Qing was half-asleep when she reached out to pry Zong Yunze's hand away, determined to finish what she was saying.
She only calmed down after Zong Yunze took out the spirit flower cake.
Zong Yunze handed her the spirit flower cake before letting go of her hand.
He thought she was only interested in the spirit flower cake now, but as soon as he let go, Yun Qing quickly read out those twelve words.
Then she took a big bite of the spirit flower cake, looked at him triumphantly, and said indistinctly, "I've finished reciting it all, so the spirit flower cake is all mine. You can't not give me any."
Zong Yunze: ...
He was both annoyed and amused, and couldn't help but reach out and poke her forehead. "You'd say anything for a bite to eat, how silly!"
He forbade Yun Qing from saying those words not because he thought Yun Qing would be unfaithful in the future.
But the oath of Heaven was like a sword hanging over her head. Even though he knew the sword wouldn't fall, he still wanted her to stay away from it.
The system couldn't help but silently defend its host. Actually, she wasn't really that stupid. If it were someone else, she definitely wouldn't be so easily fooled.
While eating the spirit flower cake, Yun Qing kept dozing off, but she managed to finish it before collapsing into Zong Yunze's arms and falling fast asleep.
Then, with a "whoosh," it shrank again.
Zong Yunze was already used to it. He placed her inside his clothes, adjusted her to a comfortable position, and let her sleep well.
The Spirit Flower Wine had a strong aftereffect. Yun Qing slept until Zong Yunze had gathered all the necessary ingredients before waking up again as her body grew larger.
But he only woke up from his drowsiness; the alcohol hadn't worn off, and he was still in a drunken state.
She seemed to remember what had happened when she woke up before. She was completely at ease with Zong Yunze, her Daoist partner with whom she had formed a sworn bond, and would kiss and touch him whenever she wanted.
Zong Yunze put his arm around her waist, letting her act up, and then suddenly asked, "Who is Little Fatty Dragon?"
System: ...As expected of you!
Yun Qing gently poked his Adam's apple with her finger, then leaned in and kissed it. Hearing his words, she mumbled sleepily, "Little Fatty Dragon...chi..."
Ahhhhh, host, shut up!
Yun Qing was forcibly muted by the system.
The system wiped away a cold sweat. If the host were to reveal the master's name, wouldn't it be struck by lightning every time?
Before Yun Qing could finish speaking, Zong Yunze misunderstood and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Want to eat dragon meat?"
system:???
Yun Qing was in a daze because her voice seemed to have been swallowed by something. When she heard his words, she bit his chin with a loud yelp.
system:……
Zong Yunze didn't stop her, but patiently coaxed her while stroking her hair, "Qingqing, dragons are the darlings of heaven and earth. Unlike ordinary ferocious beasts, they are born with intelligence. Eating them will bring you karma. Besides, it's not easy to bring yourself to eat such a divine beast with intelligence, don't you think?"
System: ...She's already munching on it.
Yun Qing suddenly paused, unable to bring herself to kiss him.
Who would have thought! The effects of the alcohol wore off so quickly!
Her cultivation level did increase somewhat, but she woke up at a terrible time.
Even more unfortunately, she also vaguely remembered the good things she did when she was drunk.
She actually made Zong Yunze form a pact with her! And she even insisted on making him swear such a vicious oath.
She even acted like a scoundrel!
Why doesn't this Spirit Flower Wine just make her lose her memory completely?
Yun Qing remained silent, which made the system somewhat worried.
[Host, are you alright?]
Yun Qing quietly withdrew her hand from inside Zong Yunze's clothes, looking utterly dejected, and said, "System, can I pretend to have amnesia?"
Oh, so you remember all of that!
[Would you like your Daoist partner to help you recall it again? Zong Yunze probably recorded it with a recording stone because he was afraid you wouldn't remember after sobering up.]
After saying that, it comforted me, saying, "But don't worry, I won't let you be completely destroyed."
Yun Qing was shocked and asked, "[He even recorded my indecent behavior?]"
No, it wasn't; it was just recorded as a contract.
Yun Qing breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."
Then she asked, "[I voluntarily let Zong Yunze form a contract with me, does that count as breaking the plot?]"
[You don't need to worry about that. The plot has been messed up from the start. The female lead has never appeared. You already deeply love Zong Yunze, and now that you've spent so much time with him, your feelings for him have only deepened. It's perfectly reasonable for you to want to form a bond with him.]
The key point is that Zong Yunze did it willingly. If he hadn't agreed, could you have formed the contract by yourself?
Yun Qing thought about it for a moment and felt that it made sense. It was Zong Yunze's problem. In the beginning, it was Zong Yunze who led her away from Liuyun Immortal Sect.
Relieved, she suddenly asked, "System, what is Little Fatty Dragon?"
system:……
It said in a particularly innocent tone, "I don't know either. Are you craving dragon meat?"
Yun Qing thought about it carefully and realized it wasn't impossible.
The main problem is that she doesn't know why she inexplicably said she liked Little Fatty Dragon when she was drunk.
She only vaguely remembers what she said, but doesn't remember what she was thinking at the time. Maybe she wasn't thinking anything at all and was just talking nonsense.
Zong Yunze had already noticed that she had sobered up. Seeing that she remained silent and huddled in his arms like an ostrich, he couldn't help but ask, "Regret it now?"
Yun Qing froze for a moment, then shook her head and said in a muffled voice, "No..."
Zong Yunze reached out and pinched her earlobe, asking, "Do you believe I won't betray you now?"
Yun Qing nodded silently.
If she says she doesn't believe it, then the plot doesn't make sense!
However, she really didn't expect Zong Yunze to be so ruthless, leaving himself no way out at all. She really believed that he was serious about her now.
I wonder what would happen if the female lead appeared.
Thinking of Zong Yunze's oath, Yun Qing couldn't help but ask: [System, if Zong Yunze breaks his oath, will Heaven truly cause him to die and his soul to perish?]
The system thought for a moment and said, "[Physical death and dissipation are likely, but complete annihilation of the soul and spirit is unlikely.]"
Simply put, Zong Yunze of this world will die, but the Lord's soul will not be annihilated.
To ensure the normal operation of the small world and prevent chaos from causing disruptions to the established plot or even leading to its collapse, the Heavenly Dao operates strictly according to the established world rules when no anomalies are detected.
However, the Heavenly Dao of this small world is not the true Heavenly Dao. It is not so easy to destroy the master's soul and spirit, and Feng Wu would not allow him to be destroyed.
Yun Qing breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason.
The system also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the host had forgotten about the ban, so there was no need to think about how to fool her. That was great!
At this moment, Zong Yunze added, "Couples should trust each other, and I also believe that Qingqing is not the kind of person who would take advantage of someone and then refuse to take responsibility."
Yun Qing: ...
