What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 219: Quarrelling Young Couple

Chu Ge validated the progress of Chef Jin and his group and left the Black Room contentedly. He rode his electric bike to pick up Qiu Wuji.

The abilities of this group of people were becoming more and more intriguing.

Chef Jin made things taste bad, while his wife made food seem incredibly delicious. In essence, it had nothing to do with the food itself. Food isn’t inherently bad-tasting or sparkling. The issue lay with their senses.

Taste, smell, and sight.

It’s just that taste could only be experienced through food, which made it seem like a food-related ability. However, his power didn’t affect the food itself. It directly affected the senses of taste and smell.

As they continued to develop their abilities, could they extend their effects to the other senses? When the couple joined forces, they could even deprive someone of their five senses if they wanted to…

With such a powerful golden saint ultimate move, they still allowed themselves to be beaten by Rong Fu. Fortunately, they learned from their mistake, and now they seemed quite formidable.

The reason it only “seemed” was because it wasn’t useful for Chu Ge. He didn’t need his five senses with his divine consciousness so developed. So, with a punch, he had subdued the couple easily.

Seeing the couple’s defeated expressions, Chu Ge wasn’t sure how effective their ability would be against other formidable ability users, but it was clearly much stronger than before…

“Deprivation of the senses, quite impressive,” Qiu Wuji embraced Chu Ge’s waist and sat on the backseat, listening to him recount his experience. She chuckled, “The ability users in this world probably can’t replace everything with divine consciousness like we can. I was observing mother…”

“Huh?”

“…Aunty, she doesn’t seem to be able to do it,” Qiu Wuji corrected herself with a hint of grievance and continued, “Maybe those who specialize in this kind of ability could, which means that even if regular ability users are strong, they’ll have to fight while their five senses are obstructed. This not only greatly hampers their combat strength, but I suspect even their abilities would be significantly affected.”

“Yeah, that guy named Long, I’m not really familiar with him. He seems quite reserved and doesn’t talk much, so I didn’t engage more with him. However, his ability to merge with the wind is intriguing. It’s quite different from our wind elemental spells. Speaking of which, he specializes in combat within the Black Room. He has excellent agility and his fighting style is quite refined.”

“And then?”

“We exchanged three moves, and he was defeated. His evasiveness is remarkable; I couldn’t land a hit on him in the first two moves.”

“…Being able to exchange three moves with you is already impressive,” Qiu Wuji mused, “You spent four hours on the first level of the Sword Trial Cave; the inner disciples were all amazed.”

Chu Ge said, “I think he could switch to cultivating immortal techniques. If he gains some proficiency in wind elemental spells and combines it with his ability, he might become even more formidable. But we’re not that familiar, and even if we were, I wouldn’t want to reveal too much…”

“There’s nothing to worry about revealing. If you genuinely think he has potential, you can teach him a method to train his ability and then simplify and modify some wind elemental spells for him to integrate. It’s quite straightforward. We can discuss it later,” Qiu Wuji smiled.

“Yeah.”

Chu Ge sighed, “So, people in the Black Room has become a powerful force, with all sorts of unique and peculiar abilities… If Mengmeng also starts practicing, it would be even more terrifying. It’s evident that Zhong Yi had a purpose in establishing the Black Room.”

“Of course, they wouldn’t just create a casual gathering. Zhong Yi must have had his objectives. But as long as they’re not malicious, we don’t need to worry about too much.”

“Yeah, who doesn’t have some secrets…”

Qiu Wuji wasn’t keen on discussing others further and changed the topic, “So, after clashing with them, do you feel that using the Plum Blossom Fist feels different now?”

Chu Ge smiled, “Indeed, I’ve incorporated many sword moves and sword intents into it. Not only the ones I’ve learned myself, but also those I felt during the Sword Trial Cave, all of which I can utilize.”

“The Plum Blossom Fist has that characteristic—it encompasses everything. That’s why Creator God chose it as his main cultivation technique…”

“Have you realized how strange it is to discuss all this while riding an electric bike on the road?”

Qiu Wuji sneakily looked around. It seemed that pedestrians couldn’t hear what they were saying, but it did feel odd. She couldn’t help but laugh, “What should we talk about then?”

“Old Zhu calculated our fate for us.” Chu Ge explained Old Zhu’s card reading, happily adding, “So, shouldn’t we say some sweet words? Like, Chu Ge, I love you.”

“Go away~ Only fools would love a fool like you!” Qiu Wuji replied teasingly.

In her heart, she was also delighted.

She didn’t practice divination, but as an immortal cultivator of her caliber, she had a sense of intuition. She had never felt that anything was amiss with her relationship with Chu Ge. Her intuition told her that his affection for her was overflowing.

She could almost hear his heart singing “Qiuqiu~ My Qiuqiu~”. While others might say it verbally, he had truly filled his heart with these sentiments. It felt like he would reach for the moon in the sky just to give it to her.

Just like during intimate moments… Qiu Wuji knew that sometimes Chu Ge desired more, but as long as she showed the slightest resistance, he would immediately stop, without a hint of persistence.

Now, with her creating different personalities of herself, she felt a bit more relaxed about certain matters. If she needed to assert herself, she could always rely on her main personality; after all, the smaller personality was there for a more casual approach. It was something akin to this feeling…

Chu Ge probably understood this as well. Sometimes, being a bit more assertive might actually work. Women needed excuses to convince themselves, like “I couldn’t resist him” or “he was insistent.” He had written similar scenarios several times himself, but he was too concerned about her feelings and was unwilling to push even slightly.

He liked her too much, cared too much.

During the fate reading, the image of Qiu Wuji that appeared in his mind could directly access his innermost thoughts, as if they were in sync.

Qiu Wuji hugged Chu Ge’s waist, gently resting her head against his broad back. Lost in thought, she muttered softly after a long while, “Chu Ge, I love you.”

He can’t hear! So, I’m not a fool!

“How’s your driving practice?”

“…”

“Uh? I’m asking you.”

Qiu Wuji got annoyed, “Not good! Idiot!”

Chu Ge looked bewildered, kept his head down while riding the bike, and wondered if today was around the time of her menstrual cycle…

“Never mind.” Qiu Wuji sulked, “The instructor had me review subject one, I’ll be taking the test in a few days.”

“So soon? I remember it took me a month to learn driving, and even longer, like three months or six months.”

“Subject one needs to be done first; we have time for the rest.” Qiu Wuji grumbled, “Besides, why would I need a month? After just two or three days, the instructor said I was driving better than her, and I already know a lot about traffic regulations…”

“Why do I feel like I’m about to witness the birth of a road menace?”

“Who is it that made my mastery of immortal cultivation is a piece of cake, and said that I have peerless talent, which pig said that?”

“Uh… I guess there shouldn’t be an issue then, right?”

“There were never going to be any issues! I am Qiu Wuji! You pig, Chu Ge!”

“But how come you don’t know how to ride the electric scooter…”

“It’s not that I don’t know how, I told you I didn’t want to ride. I wanted you to take me!”

“Alright, I’ll take care of you forever.”

“Who said I need you to take care of me forever? Once I have my own car, I won’t need you!”

“… I’m going to Shanghai next week, want to come along?”

“Chu Ge, do you dare leave me alone to explore the glamorous world!”

“Fine, fine, fine, just asked, no need to rush… huh, periods are really strange…”

“I want to take a plane!”

“Okay, okay, we’ll take a plane…”

Amidst the quarrel of the young couple on the electric bike, it traveled further down the road. While passersby didn’t hear their conversation about immortality and martial arts earlier, they sure listened closely to their argument, smiling as they watched the electric bike move away.

The girl’s ponytail fluttered and danced in the wind, full of youthful exuberance.

Youth is truly wonderful.
