45 Chapter 45 : Breaking Hundred - Heavenly Luo Sect

Whenever he said something inappropriate or did something wrong, Ye Yong would habitually take a look at the favorability list. He was immediately frightened by Wu Xue's high favorability of 95, which was almost reaching 100 and had changed from "infatuation" to "severe infatuation," which sounded a bit ominous.

Severe infatuation, could it be that he would become a yandere when he pursued other female leads in the future?

Ye Yong remembered that there weren't many romantic storylines in the novel because the author only knew how to write face-slapping and treasure-hunting, and was terrible at writing romance. So, most of it was glossed over. But Ye Yong had read the novel so many times and never noticed that Wu Xue had any yandere tendencies.

After all, as the protagonist's cultivation improved, he attracted more and more enemies, but also met more and more female leads. If Wu Xue was a yandere, the protagonist would surely be in danger. Or perhaps, in the novel, Wu Xue didn't actually like the protagonist that much?

It was also possible that the novel was just a novel, and some details were not shown. And the world Ye Yong was in now was similar to the novel's plot, but it could change, so some of Wu Xue's characteristics might be revealed?

No, Xiao Xue, I have to survive to give you happiness. And to survive, I have to pursue more female leads.

Ye Yong was nervous, but when he saw Wu Xue snuggled up in his arms looking happy, he felt that she might not become a yandere after all. After all, a yandere was someone who loved someone to the point of being sick. As long as they were guided well, no chopper incidents would occur.

So Ye Yong pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Xiao Xue, before my mother went into seclusion, she asked me to find a Dao companion in the sect."

As soon as she heard the words "Dao companion," Wu Xue suddenly looked up. Her already large eyes widened even further, her pupils shrank and trembled, and even her breathing seemed to stop.

Ye Yong coughed and said, "Do you think I should listen to my mother?"

"I think the young master should focus on cultivation. When the young master achieves the Great-Void Reversion or even becomes a saint, why worry about not having a Dao companion?"

"But by then it'll probably be hundreds, or even thousands of years."

"For a cultivator, a hundred or a thousand years is just a matter of closing the door a few more times. After the young master becomes a saint, he will have a lifespan of ten thousand years. By then... no, the young master should consider it after he ascends to immortality. The women in the world are not worthy of the young master, only the heavenly immortals are. And there are different levels of heavenly immortals, the young master must find the best one."

In other words, don't you want me to have a Dao companion?

Ye Yong didn't think Wu Xue's idea was strange. Who wouldn't want to have the person they love all to themselves? But in order to survive better, Ye Yong had to pursue the other female leads.

"Maybe I can become an immortal, but my mother and the others may not have such a long lifespan, so it's better to have a Dao companion earlier."

"Well... what the young master said is true." Wu Xue responded somewhat dejectedly. She was just a little maid and couldn't influence the young master's thoughts.

"But don't worry, no matter how many Dao companions I find in the future, Xiao Xue, you will always be by my side."

Thump, Wu Xue's heart suddenly beat faster. What did the young master mean? Can I always stay by the young master's side? Does the young master not hate me? Not hating means liking? Did the young master confess to me?

Favorability +20.

Wu Xue's favorability: 115.

Ye Yong was first stunned, then shocked and almost cried out.

Breaking hundred??? How did the favorability break hundred??? What went wrong???

Ye Yong quickly asked the system.

"I have never said that the highest value of favorability is 100."

"Well, there must be a highest value, right?" Ye Yong thought carefully. It didn't explicitly say so, but isn't it common sense in games and novels that the highest value of favorability is 100?

"Currently, I cannot detect the highest value. In theory, love for a person is infinite, but once it grows to a certain extent, the increase in affection will be minimal."

"Will there be any problems breaking hundred?" Ye Yong was quite nervous. He had asked the system before, but the system said he would know when it happened. and now it's already time, but nothing obvious has happened yet.

Apart from Wu Xue's almost blissful expression that seemed to be melting, "there won't be too much of a problem. Once the favorability rating exceeds 100, no matter what the host does, it's difficult for the other party's favorability to decrease. At a certain point, even if the host slaughters all living beings, the other party will think that the host's actions are right. However, it's important to note that being too high isn't necessarily a good thing."

"Will there be a wooden sword?"

"Depending on the personalities of different female leads, it's possible."

Ye Yong looked at Wu Xue's attitude towards him again, and after being heavily infatuated, there was an additional "[will follow until death]" behind it.

He felt that after his favorability rating was high, it was like being brainwashed. However, even if there wasn't a favorability system, even ordinary people in love would be willing to do anything for their significant other, including facing life and death situations. Therefore, one couldn't blame the favorability system; it just objectively expressed a person's love through numerical values.

Wu Xue's parents had disappeared, and her relatives were too heartless. Ye Yong was now her only reliance and support, so it wasn't strange for his favorability rating to increase rapidly and by a lot.

Furthermore, there was no upper limit to the favorability rating, which meant that Ye Yong could continue to gain Transcend Points.

Thinking of this, Ye Yong couldn't help but reach out and touch Wu Xue's head. If they weren't outside right now, he would've wanted to kiss her. This little cutie was a treasure, and her favorability increased quickly and by a lot. However, he needed to work hard to guide her and prevent her from using a Chopper.

When the airship arrived at Heavenly Luo Sect, it was already midnight.

However, even at night, Heavenly Luo Sect was brightly lit, and the majestic atmosphere of a top sect greeted them.

Heavenly Luo Sect was located on a dragon vein and had a total of twenty-four peaks.

Some of the twenty-four peaks were used for living, while others were used for cultivation.

The newcomers landed in a certain valley and followed the directions to a clearing, where an elder from the Law Enforcement Hall began to speak about the sect's rules.

Without rules, there can be no order, and things without rules are destined to not last long.

Heavenly Luo Sect had many rules, but the most important one was to prohibit disciples from killing each other.

Most famous and righteous sects had this rule, but in reality, it could only prohibit open killings. As long as they weren't caught, the sect wouldn't be able to do anything about secret actions.

It was like killing someone in a secret realm. If they died, they died. Who knew how they died? Maybe they fell into a trap, or maybe they were killed by a spiritual beast. It was the same for missions outside the sect. As long as there wasn't fighting within the sect, they couldn't really do anything about it.

Unless the disciple who died was important.

As the protagonist was currently an ordinary disciple, if he died, he died. That was why in the novel, those antagonistic disciples dared to mess with the protagonist.

Now that he had entered the sect, Ye Yong began to decide that he wanted to draw clear boundaries with some of the idiots who would cause trouble for the protagonist in the future. However, because there were too many idiots, Ye Yong could only remember a few who had a more significant role to play.

For example, the senior brother who was flying towards them on a sword's edge right now and looked like a dog. If Ye Yong wasn't mistaken, this guy should be called Bai Song, a disciple from the Sword Pavilion Hall, 26 years old, and had reached the tenth stage of crystal formation. Of course, he wouldn't have any interaction with the protagonist for now. The point was that this Bai Song had a younger brother named Bai Gui.

Bai Gui was also a new disciple who entered the sect with Ye Yong. His aptitude wasn't high, and he was 23 years old, at the fifth stage of Foundation Establishment, with a three-colored foundation. After entering the Sword Pavilion Hall, he became an ordinary disciple.

The protagonist was also just an ordinary disciple. Everyone knew what was going to happen next. It was just that Bai Gui would be the fuse, showcasing the story of one person bringing down an entire family with their strength.
