C447 Teasing Him

The authority that Lian Nichang had promised Lee Zhuohua back in Yan Lai City was the Outer Palace's Book Collection Hall, not the Inner Palace's Compendium Pavilion. What Lee Zhuohua wanted to know was the overall information about this world. He had been to the Outer Palace Book Collection Hall of the academy, but there were no books about the world. Most of them were Secret Books about cultivation techniques that the Outer Palace disciples needed.

Therefore, Lee Zhuohua, who knew about this situation, was also quite disappointed at first, but after knowing that there was another Compendium Pavilion in the Inner Palace, his thoughts became active again.

Initially, he was still curious about the location of the Compendium Pavilion that the Obsidian Tablet was talking about, but now he had no doubts.

Back when Lian Nichang was in Yan Lai City, if she could get rid of Lee Zhuohua and enter the Sandalwood Book Will, she would help her get some resources. Because she did not have the qualifications to participate in the Sandalwood Book Will, when she saw the strength that Lee Zhuohua had displayed, she had such an idea in her heart.

And until now, Lee Zhuohua had seen everything from Freshmen Trial's first place to the Outer Palace's new leader. She knew that with Lee Zhuohua's current strength, he would definitely be able to enter the top ten of the Outer Palace Disciple Competition.

At that time, he would definitely represent the academy to attend the Sandalwood Book Will in Gu Yang, and that was why Lian Nichang had come to Lee Zhuohua.

"I... I still hope that you can help me obtain some resources. I am now trapped in the Astral Realm, and I haven't even condensed a single flower. Without external assistance, I won't be able to break through at all." There was a flash of hesitation in Lian Nichang's eyes before she sighed and told him her condition.

Her status with Lee Zhuohua was no longer the same as before. She could not provide any help to Lee Zhuohua. It would not do Lee Zhuohua any good to ask him to help her.

However, in the face of her current state, Lian Nichang still chose to bite the bullet and beg Lee Zhuohua.

When Lee Zhuohua heard this, he thought to himself, As expected, but his expression did not change at all.

Long ago in Yan Lai City, Lee Zhuohua had already seen that Lian Nichang was under the confinement of her cultivation realm. The other party did not condense a Shen Hua, nor did he plant a Sanhua seed. Perhaps it was because her talent was limited, but based on Lian Nichang's own situation, she was unable to make another breakthrough.

The condition Lee Zhuohua had agreed to was that he would give him access to the Compendium Pavilion.

However, the other party did not have that authority, so there was no need for him to help the other party find resources.

However, Lee Zhuohua was a person who cared about fate the most. Although the current Lian Nichang could no longer provide him with any help, without Lian Nichang, Lee Zhuohua would not be able to smoothly enter the Qian Yuan Academy.

Moreover, Lian Nichang was also the first one to tell him about the specific details of the Sandalwood Book Will. Because of this, Lee Zhuohua would not refuse Lian Nichang's request, but he had another thought in his mind.

"Oh? Is that so? Then what good will it do to me?" Lee Zhuohua pretended to be confused. He was only doing this to tease Lian Nichang.

However, Lian Nichang did not see through Lee Zhuohua's thoughts. She knew that the other party did not have the obligation to help her when she requested this of him. She was prepared for Lee Zhuohua to say this in her heart, but now she really did not have anything to give Lee Zhuohua.

"I..." Lian Nichang's eyes were struggling. She wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say it.

Lee Zhuohua was already happy when he saw Lian Nichang's appearance, but he had to act as if it was the truth. The smile on his face had completely disappeared.

"I don't need to mention what happened in the past, but now you're looking for me. If it doesn't do me any good, why should I help you? Or are you going to give me some kind of false promise again? " Lee Zhuohua took a step forward and looked at Lian Nichang with a serious expression.

Lian Nichang frowned when she heard his words. Although she did not like the way Lee Zhuohua spoke to her, he was right. Why should he help her?

At this point, Lian Nichang's face became conflicted. She seemed to be struggling with something in her heart.

"Hu."

In the end, Lian Nichang calmed down and slowly exhaled a mouthful of impure air. It seemed that she had already made a decision.

Although Lee Zhuohua was teasing Lian Nichang, he was also very curious as to what Lian Nichang would do when she encountered such a situation. He looked at her expressionlessly, waiting for her to speak.

Lian Nichang raised her head and looked at Lee Zhuohua. Her eyes met Lee Zhuohua's. At this moment, Lee Zhuohua saw a hint of determination in Lian Nichang's eyes. He was even more curious about this.

He was not worried that his words and actions would provoke Lian Nichang, not to mention that they were both adults and it would be too useless to provoke each other with a few simple words.

"Even though my talent is limited, my persistence on the path of the practitioner is not diminished by my own talent. It is my fault that I did not keep the promise I have made to you before, and it is also my fault that I came here to beg you today, but I know that there is no such thing as asking for help for no good reason." Lian Nichang calmed her emotions and slowly said.

She had first admitted that she had failed to keep her word and then said that she was in a difficult situation. At first glance, there was nothing wrong with these words, but Lee Zhuohua could still hear an unusual meaning in her words.

"Right now I can't help you, but... but if you want to help me, Nishang wants to serve you." At this point, Lian Nichang's words were a little sluggish. Even her face began to flush red, but there was a hint of unwillingness in her eyes.

"Huh?" Lee Zhuohua thought that Lian Nichang was going to say something, but in the end, the other party said such a thing. Wasn't it obvious that he was going to repay her with his body?

Although Lee Zhuohua wanted to tease her, he did not have any intention of hurting her. Speaking up to this point, he also knew that it was time for him to tell her his true thoughts, or else Lian Nichang would have to continue fantasizing.

Lian Nichang was determined on the path of cultivators. She was willing to make sacrifices to walk this path, and what she had just said represented what she really thought in her heart.

However, Lee Zhuohua's reaction made her mistakenly think that he did not believe what she said.

"I..."

Just as she was about to open her mouth again, Lee Zhuohua's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting what she was about to say.

"'Stop, stop, stop... I say, you're a clever girl, aren't you? How can you be so stupid today that I can't even tell that I'm making fun of you? What are you thinking about?'" Lee Zhuohua knew that the other party was serious, so he quickly opened his mouth to end this farce.

"Hmm? Are you kidding me?" When Lian Nichang heard Lee Zhuohua's words, she was unable to react for a moment. Her eyes were a little confused.

But her thoughts were quick, and after a moment's thought, she came to her senses, and her eyes, too, were beginning to grow sharp from a state of perplexity, and a cold look came over her face, so dark that it seemed to be dripping water.

"Lee Zhuohua."

A scream immediately came out of Lian Nichang's mouth, filled with shame and indignation.

Lee Zhuohua, on the other hand, was covering his ears with a face full of embarrassment.
