Chapter 1607: Bending Yiyin!

Just as An Lin was rooted to the spot with a confused expression on his face, Li Yiyin continued, “You’re great friends with Chang’e, right? Tell me about what Big Sister Chang’e has been up to!”

An Lin’s lips twitched upon hearing this. So she was only excited because of his connection with Chang’e? In that case, things were going to be a little difficult. It looked like she really had fallen very deep…

Ding Xiaoru heaved a faint sigh of relief upon seeing this.

It looked like he was overthinking things, and there was nothing going on between An Lin and Li Yiyin.

An Lin took advantage of Li Yiyin’s enthusiasm to sit down with her.

Li Yiyin’s eyes were extremely bright with curiosity and elation. She was like a teenage girl getting the latest gossip on her celebrity crush.

An Lin felt like his miracle-working abilities were going to come under an extremely stern test here.

It was quite clear that Li Yiyin was only extending such a warm welcome toward him because of Chang’e.

As for Ding Xiaoru? He had already been completely disregarded…

“Oh, right, congratulations first of all, on vanquishing the Southern Heavenly Gate,” Li Yiyin said with a dainty smile.

An Lin looked at the woman beside him to find that she looked just like a real human woman. It looked like ghosts really weren’t that different from humans after reaching the Return to Void Stage.

He felt like this subject of conversation was a very good starting point that he could work with.

“You shouldn’t just be congratulating me. I have the woman beside me to thank for being able to vanquish the Southern Heavenly Gate…” An Lin pointed toward Xu Xiaolan.

“Oh? Was the Divine Phoenix Maiden a big help to you?” Li Yiyin asked.

An Lin nodded with a serious expression. “Do you know what power I relied on to win that arduous battle against those seemingly insurmountable enemies?”

“What is it?” Li Yiyin’s interest had been piqued.

“The power of love!” An Lin replied with an earnest expression.

Ding Xiaoru: “…”

Li Yiyin rolled her eyes.

Xu Xiaolan forced herself to maintain her unnatural smile.

An Lin ignored Li Yiyin’s reaction and continued with a serious expression, “Don’t underestimate the power of love. Xiaolan and I are able to unleash a power greater than the sum of our two wholes because of our mutual love and understanding toward one another.”

“Not only that, but every time I was beaten to the brink of death, my urge to protect Xiaolan transformed into a limitless power, which brought me back from the grave, and I was finally able to defeat my enemies in the end! This was only possible with the power of love!”

Patriarch Zhu Yin was extremely excited.

What a rousing speech!

And the analysis had a basis as well!

Even he had almost believed it!

Nothing was more persuasive than one’s battle records, An Lin’s persuasive tactics were very convincing.

Sure enough, even Li Yiyin nodded firmly upon hearing this.

Just when Ding Xiaoru thought a development had been made, a yearning smile appeared on Li Yiyin’s face. “The power of true love really is insurmountable. I believe that my love with Big Sister Chang’e can also create countless miracles…”

An Lin’s mouth gaped open.

Ding Xiaoru felt like a sword had been stabbed into his heart.

Why did it seem like her conviction had become even firmer?

An Lin was not going to continue along this train of thought, and he immediately cut straight to the chase.

“Only heterosexual love can create miracles. Homosexual relationships are bound to fail!”

“Why do you say that?” Li Yiyin’s expression darkened significantly as she glared at An Lin.

A calm smile appeared on An Lin’s face at the sight of her unconvinced expression. “Have you seen any mighty figures who have stayed together in long-term homosexual relationships?”

Li Yiyin’s expression faltered slightly upon hearing this. Looking at the entire Tai Chu Continent, it appeared that there really weren’t any mighty figures in homosexual relationships.

“I… Big Sister Chang’e and I will create history by becoming the first pair!” Li Yiyin’s resolve returned after her heart wavered momentarily.

An Lin heaved a faint sigh. She was not going to be that simple to crack.

He delivered a sincere and heartfelt lecture, “The combination of yin yang follows the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Only when those two are combined can all living beings continue to exist and…”

“Stop! Stop! Please don’t! My ears are developing calluses from listening to lectures like this!” Li Yiyin waved her hands before glaring at Ding Xiaoru. “You sure don’t give up. You even managed to invite Sect Leader An Lin here to try and persuade me?”

An Lin and Ding Xiaoru were both a little embarrassed upon hearing this.

They didn’t think that their cover would be blown by Li Yiyin this quickly.

An Lin decided to lay all his cards on the table. “Seeing as you’ve already figured everything out, then I’m not going to hide anything either. Let me tell you the truth. Chang’e already has someone else that she loves!”

Everyone’s expression shifted upon hearing this.

“No! You’re lying!” the woman’s determined and furious voice sounded.

“Big Sister Chang’e and I were in a loving relationship three hundred years ago! After that, she was completely consumed by her battle of Dao Integration, so how could she have had a change of heart so quickly?” Li Yiyin glowered at An Lin with a furious expression. “Don’t look down on the love between me and Chang’e! You have no right to be spouting nonsense here!”

“You’ll know whether I’m spouting nonsense after you look at this.” An Lin was not enraged by her vehement reaction, and he pulled out a photographic crystal before injecting his vital energy into it in order to produce the image it contained.

Beside the Moon Palace, under the canopy of osmanthus trees, two women in palatial dresses sidled up against one another.

One of them was an exquisite yet slightly aloof beauty, while the other had the type of beauty that rivaled hers but was a bit more on the adorable and innocent side.

The two of them looked at each other with faint smiles on their faces. Flower petals fell around them, creating a scene that was like the most beautiful painting in this world.

However, Li Yiyin’s body shuddered as she stared blankly at this beautiful scene. “How could this be… Impossible… How could Big Sister Chang’e be with her…”

The two women in the image were none other than Celestial Maiden Chang’e and Setting Moon Celestial Immortal!

If anyone else saw this image, they would perhaps think that this was just a pair of close and intimate sisters.

However, Li Yiyin was not one of those people. She could read the emotions within Chang’e’s eyes. That expression was so similar to the expression Chang’e had once looked at her with.

That expression was one that was reserved for her lover…

Li Yiyin stared at the date on the photographic crystal. It was a photographic crystal from over a hundred years ago. So Chang’e already had a change of heart after leaving her?

“Why? Why would Big Sister Chang’e like someone else… Why would she abandon me? We promised one another that we were going to be together forever…”

Tears began to stream down her face.

It was as if she had been dealt a massive emotional blow, and she shook her head relentlessly, trying to wake up from this horrible nightmare.

An Lin was not going to let her catch her breath. “Homosexuality is the purest form of love? What a joke! That’s a concept that only exists in your imagination! Celestial Immortal has always loved Setting Moon Celestial Immortal!”

“You’re just a pitiful woman who has been played by Chang’e! Think about it. Has Chang’e come to visit you even once in the past several hundred years? You were just a one-night-stand to her! Then think about who has stayed by your side and never abandoned you, despite how cruel and cold you’ve been to him!”

An Lin’s words were like a bolt of lightning that instantly rooted Li Yiyin to the spot.

Her eyes were still shimmering with tears when she looked back at the purple-robed man behind her to find him looking back at her with his perpetual, warm smile.
