Halfway through the storybook, Wei Lin closed it gently and refused simply and neatly: "Xiao Xianxin accepts Yuedian's wishes. A gentleman will not take away others' love, so gifts are unnecessary."
Nowadays, the Lantau Sect is sensitive. Xi Ying had already anticipated this situation and persuaded him methodically: "Yue Dian just appreciates your character and has no other intentions. You can just accept it with peace of mind."
Wei Lin shook his head with a firm look on his face: "The so-called no reward for no merit..."
The two of them pushed and persuaded each other. After doing this several times, Wei Lin muttered: "Let's do this. The fairy will handwrite a letter of thanks and ask the fairy to take the gift back."
As he said that, without giving Xi Ying a chance to speak, he quickly took out the letter paper, wrote the whole article eloquently, and sealed it with a magic trick.
Xi Ying was stunned, understanding his determination, and if he continued to persuade him, it would be forceful.
His Highness's gift was an expression of goodwill, not enmity. Xi Ying had no choice but to accept the letter, and then took a bouquet of blue and purple flowers and said, "Before leaving, Your Highness saw that the flowers on the table were really beautiful. I just made an impromptu decision and asked the fairy to bring it to you as a gift. The treasure is precious and you don’t want to accept it, so I can’t refuse these flowers anymore.”
Wei Lin was stunned, and for a moment, his thoughts surged. He still remembered that during the Lantern Festival that year, they met on the way back to Canye Pavilion after they separated for the first time when they first entered the immortal world.
At that time, on a whim, she gave him such a bouquet of flowers, mainly pink, blue, pink and purple, so similar to the one in front of her.
That night, they went to the lantern festival in a nearby town and found the Guixu wooden sign. Thinking about it now, the Guixu wooden sign should be hers.
Wei Lin raised his hand and gently turned the Na ring on his little finger. The Guixu wooden sign inside sensed his call and jumped slightly.
Back then, he experienced the Tianwu crisis and the Nanming crisis, and once again intuitively and tragically understood what it means to have no destiny.
The recognition of the Guixu wooden sign gave him a glimmer of comfort and renewed his confidence when he was in despair.
Now they are reunited, with flowers, and the secret realm of Guixu that is about to open.
Waves of warmth flowed through Wei Lin's heart, and most of the fatigue from repeated hard battles and the overt and covert pressure from the Immortal Alliance had dissipated.
He was once again confident that as long as they worked together, one day they would be able to change the pattern of Star Tower, destroy the demon clan, and create a world of immortality!
"Master Wei?"
Xi Ying's slightly suspicious voice pulled Wei Lin back from the past. He casually tucked the thank-you letter into the storybook and put it back to its place. Then he reached out to take the bouquet and raised his lips. Smiling politely, "In this case, Xiaoxian will accept it."
Xi Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that luckily she was smart and had expected that the gift would be rejected. She also guessed that Wei Lin might reject the gift because it was expensive, so she put the bouquet at the end.
Immortals and treasures are precious, and this bouquet of flowers represents pure feelings, but there is no reason to refuse.
Their Highnesses were so satisfied that they wanted to give gifts, and wished they could empty their wealth. If they were rejected by everyone, how could they lose face?
After sending Xi Ying away, Wei Lin returned to the house, looked at Qiaoyun who had exited from hiding, and said with a smile: "Auntie, you've been waiting for a long time. What were we talking about just now?"
Qiao Yun's expression was complicated, wasn't he Shao Haoyue's calamity? Why did Shao Haoyue treat him differently as soon as they met again?
Wei Lin is not frustrated by Shao Haoyue's current attitude. At this time, it is basically impossible to recruit him into the Goddess Palace.
Aunt Qiaoyun was too lazy to waste her words. She nodded and said calmly: "Young people don't have to be impatient. You should think more carefully when things happen."
After all, Nan Mi had a grudge with Wei Lin, but Wei Lin did not refuse forcefully and responded with the flow: "Thank you, Auntie, for your advice."
------------------
When she learned that Xi Ying had returned, Shao Haoyue put down what she was doing and called her over to ask, "How's it going? Did you accept it? What did he say?"
"Um," facing Shao Haoyue's expectant questions three times in a row, Xi Ying once again congratulated himself on his wit, "Mr. Wei accepted the flower."
"Did you only collect flowers?" Shao Haoyue was immediately disappointed.
Lian Yang quickly handed over Wei Lin's letter, "This is a letter from Mr. Wei to you."
There is a reply!
Shao Haoyue's disappointment faded a little, and she hurriedly accepted the letter, and then she became even more disappointed.
Although this letter is full of words, it is all polite, perfunctory, rambling, and there is no coherent logic in the rejection.
Shao Haoyue had serious doubts. During this period, Wei Lin even disliked the large number of strokes and wrote a lot of numbers to deal with it.
The whole article can be summarized as follows: I am not familiar with you, so I can't bear the generous gift.
Why aren't you familiar? They didn't chat all night in Linshui City.
She refused to give up, "Can you describe the process? What went wrong? Did any of the things he sent violate his taboos?"
Xi Ying was speechless. She described the whole process in detail from the time she arrived at Lantau City, which immortal soldier led the way, what she said, to when Wei Lin came out.
Shao Haoyue picked up the top storybook in confusion, "Has he read this book? Doesn't he like this story?"
At this time, Lianyang pushed the door open and said, "Your Highness, the information is out."
Shao Haoyue had no choice but to give up the entanglement temporarily and start dealing with business.
This information is mainly divided into two parts. One part is the general layout and troop strength of each defense zone of the immortal clan and the demon army; the other part is the information detected by the Phoenix clan scouts and the information returned from the hidden stakes planted in the demon army.
While checking, she asked casually: "Is there anyone in the defense area that Lingyu is responsible for?"
"most
Shao Haoyue nodded, casting the most suspicion on Lingyu.
She handed it to Xi Ying, "Make a copy of the general summary and send it to Lantau together with this copy."
So a few days later, Wei Lin met Xi Ying again.
This time, both publicly and privately, I could not refuse.
What Lantau lacks now is reliable information.
Nightingale and the others were worried about such a good thing, but Zhantian was the first one to express doubt, "Is this situation reliable? Could it be a conspiracy by the Immortal Alliance?"
Wei Lin: "...take a look first."
Several people studied it carefully and corroborated the information they had found. After more than half an hour, they finally determined that there was no problem and were reluctantly relieved.
Wei Linwei let out a breath that could not be traced. He had to find a way to build a relationship between the two parties as soon as possible. It would be a waste of time and energy to waste time and effort to verify reliable information.
The monk had a photographic memory, and he discussed the defense map for half an hour. Every terrain location and route layout in the defense area and surrounding areas was deeply imprinted in his mind.
Suddenly, Wei Lin remembered the letter he had received from Jun Yushan a few days ago. Since the two parties were allies, Jun Yushan informed the letter in a casual tone of the rough situation of the defense area that the Jun family was responsible for.
Of course, when replying to the letter, Wei Lin also used the excuse of chatting with friends to reveal the general situation of the Lantau Defense Zone.
Everyone helps each other, and if something goes wrong, allies can come to the rescue in time.
Judging from the information from the Feng Clan, several demon armies have plans to mobilize troops towards the Jun family’s defense zone. Coupled with the original demon army in that defense zone, if the Jun family chooses to attack in any direction, they will fall into the demon clan. In the pockets of the army.
Wei Lin felt shocked and hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to the Jun family.
Next, he fell into an endless battle.
When it comes to the quota of returning to the ruins, the demon army changed its previous attitude of slacking off and launched an extremely fierce offensive. Lingyu relied on numerous Taiyi Golden Immortals and suffered few casualties, but they still fought very hard.
In order to reduce the casualty rate as much as possible, Wei Lin and other high-level officials rarely left the battlefield on the first day of the battle, and the fight was in complete darkness.
On this day, Wei Lin leaned against the city wall, taking the Great Return Pill to replenish his immortal power, but he was so exhausted that he couldn't even activate the technique to transform it.
He simply let the elixir dissolve on its own and pulled over a messenger, "Has the Jun family received any news?"
The messenger soldier was so tired that he almost collapsed. After hearing this, he jumped up and went to inquire about the situation.
After a while, the messenger hurried back with a solemn look on his face: "City Lord, the messenger has not returned yet."
Wei Lin's expression changed slightly and he immediately ordered: "Go and call the commander of the scout battalion."
It's been four or five days, and it's no problem to go back and forth two or three times. How could it be possible that you haven't come back yet?
