Chapter 836 Have you ever truly loved someone?
Chapter 836 Have you ever truly loved someone?
After the two of them were stunned for a while, the blush that had just faded on Li Yao's pretty face rose again, and it was several times redder than before!
It's almost dripping water!
Shaking her head frantically, Li Yao's beautiful eyes were filled with panic, and she said in a shy voice, "Master...Master Uncle! What...what are you saying!"
"They...they actually let us...they let us..."
"Oh dear! Senior Uncle, why...why are you suddenly doing this!"
Her stammering tone sounded extremely awkward; she couldn't even utter some words, and after speaking, she tightly covered her flushed face with her hands.
Even the usually thick-skinned Lin Que scratched his head awkwardly and said in a weak voice, "Uh...yes...yes, this doesn't seem quite right!"
Seeing the two looking shy and embarrassed, Empress Frostmoon raised an eyebrow and said in a serious tone, "Do you think you have plenty of time left for the Wind Spirit Realm?"
"You know perfectly well how many years this seal has left."
"Otherwise, would I let Li Yao get away with this for nothing, you brat?!"
"Um... Empress, what do you mean by this?" These words stunned Lin Que and Li Yao once again!
However, Empress Frostmoon raised her jade hand and rubbed her forehead, saying helplessly, "Think about it carefully. With your current fallen cultivation level, do you think you can recover it in less than forty years?"
"Not to mention how powerful the enemy we will face on the day the seal is broken!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que seemed to realize something, and immediately showed an incredulous expression: "Empress, you wouldn't mean to say..."
"That's right!" Empress Frostmoon nodded and said, "I suppose you know that Li Yao's physique is the Ice Condensation Body. If the two of you cultivate together, it will definitely greatly improve your cultivation!"
"While it may not be enough to bring you back to your previous state, it can at least speed things up a bit."
"After all, the Fengtian Continent can't function without your combat strength!"
"Dual...dual cultivation..." Li Yao, covering her face, was so ashamed after hearing Empress Shuangyue's words that she wanted to disappear into the ground.
As for Lin Que, he hadn't expected Empress Frost Moon to have such intentions.
Before he rescued Li Yao from Tianyou Valley, he learned the reason from Su Yuyan and understood that Li Yao's constitution was that of an ice-condensed body.
Therefore, Ji Hengyu agreed to the marriage because he valued Li Yao's dual cultivation physique.
But for some reason, Lin Que felt a sense of resistance and did not want to listen to Empress Frostmoon's advice.
It's not that he doesn't like Li Yao.
On the contrary, it is precisely because he likes it that he does not want to do such a thing.
After all, under the current circumstances, if he really did that, no matter what, Lin Que himself felt that he was treating Li Yao as a tool.
Sensing the growing resistance within him, Lin Que frowned and immediately said to Empress Frostmoon with a serious expression, "I disagree!"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere instantly fell silent...
At this moment, Li Yao's expression was one of utter disbelief!
As for Empress Frostmoon, she was completely astonished!
"What did you say?!" A moment later, Empress Frostmoon's pretty face turned cold, and her eyes flashed with a sharp light as she looked at Lin Que!
"Didn't you say you liked Li Yao?!"
"Are you perhaps trying to deceive me?!"
When Empress Frost Moon uttered those two cold words, Li Yao's face turned deathly pale instantly, as if all her strength had been drained, and her delicate body almost collapsed.
However, Lin Que did not back down in the face of the Frost Moon Empress's two cold questions!
Looking directly into her cold eyes, Lin Que spoke in a deep voice: "You're asking me to do this, which is like asking me to treat Li Yao as a tool or a furnace!"
"Therefore, there is absolutely no way I can agree to this!"
"In my heart, Li Yao is not a vessel for dual cultivation at all!"
In an instant, Lin Que's words seemed to pull Li Yao back from the brink of hell, and a mixture of surprise and confusion appeared on her face at the same time.
"Lin Que..."
At this moment, a blush of embarrassment once again filled Li Yao's pretty face.
Her autumn eyes, fixed on Lin Que, were filled with a hazy and deep love!
As for Empress Frost Moon in front of her, her cold face had long since turned into one of disbelief, she simply could not believe that Lin Que would say such a thing.
"you..."
Before Empress Frostmoon could speak, Lin Que preemptively said, "I don't know if it's because you've been in this position for so long that you subconsciously measure things by their benefits."
"But if you want me to use Li Yao's physique to restore my cultivation level like this..."
"Then you should give up on this idea as soon as possible."
"Because I will never agree to it under any circumstances!"
However, Empress Frostmoon was still somewhat confused by Lin Que's words and frowned, saying, "What's the difference?"
"Does that mean you and Li Yao will never share a room again in the future?"
"It's just a matter of sooner or later, or are you going to let Li Yao's Ice Condensation Body go to waste like this?"
"If that's really the case, then I can only give you two words!"
"madness!"
"Hehe!" Unexpectedly, after hearing Empress Frostmoon's words, Lin Que did not refute them, but instead sneered!
"What are you laughing at!" Empress Frostmoon's expression instantly turned icy cold!
Shaking his head, Lin Que looked calmly at Empress Frost Moon.
"Ling Qingxue, may I ask you a question?"
Upon hearing this, a surge of anger immediately appeared in Empress Frostmoon's beautiful eyes!
This brat actually dares to call me by my real name!
How bold!
Even Li Yao, who was standing to the side, felt the change in the surrounding air. She immediately reached out her jade hand and gently tugged at Lin Que's sleeve, a look of worry on her pretty face!
"Lin Que..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Que gently patted Li Yao's hand to reassure her and tell her not to worry.
After a moment of silence, Empress Frostmoon finally spoke and asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"I want to ask you, have you ever truly loved someone?" Lin Que looked into her eyes, his gaze completely calm and unwavering.
Have you ever... tried to truly love someone?
boom!
A moment!
A powerful aura erupted!
"Lin Que! How dare you!" Empress Frost Moon roared, and instantly a powerful pressure pressed down on Lin Que!
However, facing this overwhelming pressure, Lin Que did not show the slightest fear. Instead, he shook his head and said, "I don't think you do either, so you would never understand this feeling in your heart."
"It seems that our conversation will end here for today."
"Liyao, let's go."
After saying that, Lin Que immediately got up, pulled the bewildered Li Yao, and turned to walk out of the courtyard, leaving Empress Shuangyue alone in the courtyard.
"As for my cultivation level, I will find another way myself, so please don't worry about it, Your Majesty!"
"We appreciate your kindness!"
A calm yet firm refusal came from outside the courtyard, leaving Empress Frostmoon, who sat there, silent for a long time...
"Can you truly like...love someone?"
