Ling Zhenfei said to Nangong Changhe, "Old Man Nangong, this is indeed another of your schemes. You truly are insidious. When will you ever run out of plans?"
Nangong Changhe said, "With such a good plan, shouldn't it be shared with others? What do you think of my plan just now?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Not bad, really impressive. No wonder you were so leisurely chatting with me at the door earlier; it was all part of your plan, wasn't it?"
Nangong Changhe said, "That's right. Without a plan, it wouldn't work."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Tell me about your plan. Is there something wrong with those flowers and plants outside?"
Nangong Changhe said, "Of course. As long as you stay outside for a while, breathe in enough of the scent of those flowers and plants, and then come inside to smell these, it causes one's spirit to enter another realm."
Ling Zhenfei said, "So everything I've seen is fake, right?"
Nangong Changhe said, "Actually, you can't say that. How can it be all fake? At least the Peach Blossom Fairy is real."
Hearing the name Peach Blossom Fairy made Ling Zhenfei feel a bit nauseated. Earlier, Ling Zhenfei even thought of spending his life here with the Peach Blossom Fairy, but that was truly a foolish thought.
Ling Zhenfei said, "What is your purpose?"
Nangong Changhe said, "The illusion you experienced just now was a result of two types of drugs, but even that illusion is terrifying because it makes you see your inner self.
Even though everything was imagined by you, because of the power struggles and rumors online, it made you want to give up everything and retire to the mountains.
So then, you wanted to put everything down, find a Peach Blossom Fairy that was as beautiful as a flower, and live peacefully in a place with no disputes or others around."
Ling Zhenfei was shocked. What Master Nangong said was so accurate. Previously, when in the detention center, Ling Zhenfei indeed had such thoughts.
Anyway, everything about him online had been completely destroyed, so there was no need to worry so much anymore.
Ling Zhenfei said, "You're not wrong. I did have such thoughts."
Nangong Changhe said, "Everything just now was an illusion of yours. We only set up two peaches, and you imagined an entire Peach Forest, which shows how rich your imagination is."
Ling Zhenfei agreed internally, perhaps he really was a bit tired. Since the new year, Ling Zhenfei hadn't even celebrated properly and went straight to the Capital City, then immediately to Moergawa.
After returning from Moergawa, he went to Xianling Mountain, then went to the Capital City to treat Lu Huanong, and immediately after to Tangcheng. After so many things happened, Ling Zhenfei was truly tired.
This kind of tiredness is really hard to bear, not just physical exhaustion but also mental fatigue. Especially when Ling Zhenfei was sent to detention, the negative emotions erupted, leading to thoughts of giving up everything and retiring to the mountains.
Now that Nangong Changhe mentioned it, it proved that Nangong Changhe is truly impressive, analyzing everything so thoroughly.
Ling Zhenfei said, "These things really don't need much analysis; you could easily think of them."
Nangong Changhe said, "Of course, you can deny it, but I've noticed something else."
Ling Zhenfei said, "What else did you notice?"
Nangong Changhe said, "I also noticed your lasciviousness."
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, not expecting Nangong Changhe to see that too. Ling Zhenfei didn't react as AHu Nangong Changhe said, "It's quite simple, really. The Peach Blossom Fairy over there, her appearance is all in your imagination.
You know why the Peach Blossom Fairy looked so beautiful in your eyes? Even surpassing all other women? It's because the woman in your imagination is the most perfect in your mind."
Ling Zhenfei nodded, acknowledging that Nangong Changhe's analysis was astute, breaking everything down so comprehensively.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Now that you've said this and caught me, what do you want to do? What's your goal?"
Nangong Changhe said, "I have no specific goal, just want to make a trade with you."
Ling Zhenfei said, "What trade?"
Nangong Changhe said, "It's very simple, trading you for Number One."
Ling Zhenfei said, "You want to bargain for Number One again? Do you think there's any chance we would release someone we've captured?"
Nangong Changhe laughed, "What? In your heart, is Number One not worth more than your life?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "My life is valuable, and so is Number One's. But why should I trade him? You've merely controlled me with this rope, but you haven't truly captured me."
Nangong Changhe looked at Ling Zhenfei with surprise, "Right now, this Immortal Binding Rope holds you. Isn't that the same as capturing you? Do we really have to teach you a lesson for you to understand?"
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "Of course not. Though the Immortal Binding Rope has captured me, I can untie it anytime."
Nangong Changhe laughed heartily, "What are you talking about? This Immortal Binding Rope is a treasure; you think you can untie it so easily?"
Ling Zhenfei chuckled, "Maybe to others, once bound by this rope, it's unbreakable, but to me, it's no big deal."
Nangong Changhe looked at Ling Zhenfei and then at the Peach Blossom Fairy, asking her, "He says he can untie it; do you believe him?"
The Peach Blossom Fairy laughed, "How is that possible? This thing is under my control; he definitely can't open it."
Ling Zhenfei said, "If you don't believe it, let's try. Just now, I pretended to be caught just to lure you out. Now that you're here, I can free myself."
At that thought, Ling Zhenfei suddenly felt a thought surge, and immediately, the Soul Passage was launched.
The Soul Passage struck deep into one's soul, particularly affecting the Peach Blossom Fairy. Her strength was originally very low, and after being hit by Ling Zhenfei's Soul Attack, her mind instantly went blank.
As control over the Northern Spiritual Energy was lost, the Immortal Binding Rope lost its energy and slipped off Ling Zhenfei's body.
Ling Zhenfei grabbed the Immortal Binding Rope in his hand. The thing was translucent gold, like it was woven with golden threads, stunningly beautiful, and held a faint aura as if imbued with spiritual energy.
Ling Zhenfei, liking it very much, casually put the rope into his Di Tian Shen Sui.
At that moment, the three who had been struck by the Soul Attack all snapped back to reality, only to find that the Immortal Binding Rope on Ling Zhenfei was gone.
"Ah, where's my Immortal Binding Rope?" Seeing her treasure gone, the Peach Blossom Fairy was almost in a frenzy.
