The Art of Subduing Dragons

Chapter 106

After Ruan Li left, Luo Qingci felt somewhat calmer, knowing she wouldn't be harmed by Tianjizi here. However, she also felt an emptiness inside.

She returned to the Tianyan Sect, calming herself and thinking about how to handle the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood once she brought it down the mountain. The Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood was at the core of the conflict between the two clans. Without it, the current situation would likely be completely different.

And she needed to be extremely careful about how to handle it.

On the way back, she passed by Qingxuan Pavilion, where the courtyard of her two disciples was silent. Luo Qingci stopped and looked at the pavilion for a while before returning to Hanlu Courtyard.

The system, which had been observing her every move, couldn't help but ask, "Are you thinking about her?"

Luo Qingci paused, then shook her head. "I don't know. It doesn't seem like I'm thinking about her. I just saw the courtyard and felt a bit desolate."

The system felt somewhat reassured after hearing this. Compared to when Luo Qingci first woke up, she had improved a lot.

The loss of romantic attachment undoubtedly affected Luo Qingci. While it wouldn't damage her body, it made her less like her old self.

More importantly, it had a huge impact on Ruan Li. Although the system didn't know how out of control people could get when they were in love, observing Luo Qingci and Ruan Li, it could tell that Ruan Li's feelings for Luo Qingci were far from a mere impulse.

Compared to the experiences Ruan Li had with Nangong Jue, the current situation between Luo Qingci and Ruan Li was in a completely different league. If Luo Qingci were to sever her feelings and regard Ruan Li as nothing more than a troublesome protagonist, only to complete the task, it was uncertain what Ruan Li would do.

Since the system mentioned Ruan Li, Luo Qingci pondered for a moment and said, "You should be able to monitor the protagonist's condition. If there's anything urgent, make sure to tell me."

"Alright. Also, I haven't had a chance to tell you before, but Ruan Li's favorability towards you has increased by 80 points. The current favorability is -7926."

Luo Qingci couldn't help but twitch her lips. "Hasn't it been deducted?"

"No."

Luo Qingci fell silent. She found it hard to understand. Despite her cold demeanor towards Ruan Li these past few days, wasn't she angry?

Forcing herself to shift her focus, she reminded herself that she needed to think about how to deal with the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood, as Tianjizi had instructed her to take it down the mountain and help Qin Jian deal with the dragon clan corrupted by demonic energy.

This meant that for the time being, she would be in charge of the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood before meeting up with Qin Jian.

She had already estimated how to deal with the dragons corrupted by demonic energy. The most challenging issue was how to handle the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood itself.

One of Ruan Li's goals in coming to Tianyan Sect was to destroy the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood. In the original book, Ruan Li never got a chance to come into contact with it before Luo Qingci's death.

Now that she had access to the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood, destroying it was out of the question. However, whether or not to take it out as it was remained something she needed to consider.

To quell the conflict between the two clans, the Dragon-Slaying Divine Wood must not fall into the hands of those who advocate for dragon extermination.
