This fox fairy is too inhuman

"say what?"

Shi Xue smiled softly upon hearing this, then turned her head to look at Ren Yidao meaningfully and asked, "Why? Even if it's just an old friend meeting, do I have to have some special purpose to meet you?"

Her smile was playful, and her eyes held some unfathomable emotions.

My friend, what do you mean by this?

"Haha, that's not the case."

Ren Yidao also laughed and shook his head, saying, "After all, you are a very busy man!"

"Even a mountain monk like me has heard of the legendary deeds of the Snow Lady countless times!"

He spoke very seriously about the three "Snow Lady", causing Shi Xue's originally calm expression to suddenly change.

"You! Wait a minute! You said you heard about my deeds?"

"of course!"

Ren Yidao recited the stories he had heard from various places as if he knew them all by heart, and he did it like naming dishes: "Twenty years ago, a female hero in white killed a thousand-year-old white snake with her sword at Luojiao River, saving a hundred thousand villagers from being tormented by demons! Fifteen years ago, which female hero killed the evil cultivator riding a giant iron-eating beast outside Xiangliu County, saving the county from collapse! Ten years ago..."

Bang!
Shi Xue:? ? ?
The Snow Lady, who had been calm and composed before, could no longer keep her composure. Her cheeks quickly turned red and she shouted in panic, "Shut up!!! Stop talking!"

But Ren Yidao was in the middle of storytelling and couldn't possibly listen to her. On the contrary, seeing her like that, he became even more excited.

"Don't interrupt me, let me finish!"

Snapped!
He slammed the gavel and said loudly: "Ten years ago, Snow Lady helped the villagers to control the flood in Hongying River, and she changed the course of the river with human power! Five years ago, she fished without a hook by the Luoshui River, attracting countless heroes to visit..."

"You!!! Shut up! You..."

Shi Xue stood up suddenly, without caring about anything else, and leaped over, trying to cover Ren Yidao's mouth.

But unfortunately, she was no match for Ren Yidao. When he raised his hand, she was frozen in mid-air. The only part of her body that could move was her eyes.

Immobilization technique!!!
Is this immortal method meant for you to use at a time like this? ! ?
"Mmmm!? Mmm!!!"

An angry Shi Xue kept glaring at Ren Yidao. If looks could kill, his body would have been riddled with holes long ago.

"Friend, don't be so excited. Let's talk it over nicely."

Ren Yidao sat on the mat with a smile on his face. With a slight movement of his fingers, he controlled the Snow Lady to fall back onto her mat, and she also made a gesture of lowering her head and clasping her hands together.

"Besides, everything I said is true! Isn't it?"

Snapped.

With a snap of her fingers, Shi Xue regained control of herself. She shook her body, but did not have an attack, and took a deep breath.

"call……"

Although her current strength was much stronger than it was thirty years ago, and she was no longer the real chivalrous woman who could only rely on the power of her friends to bluff, her strength still seemed so weak in front of this man...

"Pfft, hahaha!"

However, just as this frustration had not yet dissipated, Shi Xue suddenly chuckled and shook her head helplessly.

?

"Hey, why are you laughing suddenly?" Ren Yidao blinked, wondering why Shi Xue suddenly laughed. Was she too stimulated?
So fragile?

Isn't it?

"Nothing, I just suddenly realized that I was a little ridiculous."

"Ok?"

Shi Xue waved her hands, explained casually, and then said to herself: "Why are you competing with him?"

Comparing with others is fine, but what is there to compare with him? Although this person looks unreliable, like a fledgling Taoist priest, he... is a genuine savior!
The world doesn’t know what the world has been through, or that they were once threatened with destruction, but it was this man who saved everything and kept it all out.

It's already a rare opportunity for me to be friends with him, so how can I have the qualifications to compare with him?

After sighing for a while, Shi Xue changed the subject and looked at the decorations in the room. She asked curiously, "Come to think of it, I wanted to ask you just now, where are they? Why can't I see the ladies?"

"There are only you and me here." Ren Yidao didn't hesitate and smiled, "It's not good to have too many people when good friends meet."

"Ah."

Shi Xue snorted lightly and glanced at Ren Yidao.

Too much, right?

Oh man.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and said teasingly, "I think you have bad intentions! Why? So many people can't satisfy your desires?"

"hehe."

Ren Yidao was not panicked at all, and he kept smiling. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Whatever you say, whatever you think, I have a clear conscience."

Have a clear conscience?
"..." Shi Xue narrowed her eyes and shook her head slightly, regretting that she had brought up this topic.

I have a clear conscience... Haha, how ironic.

These four words are easy to think about, but really hard to do.

Just when Shi Xue was feeling a little depressed, Ren Yidao seemed to have noticed nothing and changed the subject, asking, "How have you been these years, Lady Snow? Have you seen the wonderful world?"

"You mean the human world?"

When this topic was brought up, Shi Xue couldn't help but think of the little things she had encountered while walking alone in the world over the years. Her mood changed accordingly, and she sighed softly and said, "I've seen it firsthand."

"So, after seeing this with your own eyes, what do you think?"

Shi Xue fell silent on this question.

After a long while, she sighed softly and said slowly: "...Mortals are very fragile."

"Natural disasters, man-made disasters, demonic disasters... In the face of these dangers, they are so weak, just like wheat in the field, which will fall down with just a pinch of the wheat."

Over the years, just like the stories Ren Yidao had heard, she had seen thousand-year-old white snakes wreaking havoc, seen evil cultivators using human flesh to feed monsters, seen rivers flooding and devouring crops... These events that originally only existed in words, she had seen with her own eyes.

Ren Yidao looked at Shi Xue who was lost in thought, and his voice changed slightly, with a hint of imperceptible temptation, and asked softly: "So, do you think that cultivators are superior to mortals now?"

"...superior to others?" Shi Xue was in a daze for a moment, but soon shook her head firmly.

"of course not!"

Her answer was so sonorous that it seemed to dispel much of the confusion in her mind.

"They are indeed very weak and can only survive in humiliation, but they never lack the will to resist."

"When faced with demonic plagues and human disasters, they will gather together and fight against powerful enemies. Even if they are still defeated in the end, they will seek help from outsiders and look for people who can help them."

"When faced with natural disasters, they did not simply escape, but tried to change them. They cut through mountains and built bridges across rivers, using their own power to change the outside world."

“They may not succeed every time, but their struggle… is real!”

Shi Xue raised her head, her eyes completely clear again, and she looked straight into Ren Yidao's dark eyes.

"Ren Yidao."

She called out her friend's name and said earnestly, "Mortals are indeed weak, but they are never weak." (End of this chapter)
