Villain: Her Imagination Makes Me Invincible-Chapter 128
Chapter 128: Come Over and Massage My Shoulders
For instance, when she tried to kill Ling Xue earlier, his cold, rigid attitude and icy gaze…
Yun Luoxi couldn’t quite comprehend how he could utter such brazen words under such circumstances…
But her intuition told her that if she had truly attacked Ling Xue then if she had really dealt a fatal blow, the outcome… could have been an extremely disastrous one!
And by saving him, she earned Ling Xue’s tolerance in many ways.
She noticed that Ling Xue’s gaze towards her was now different from before!
In fact… Ling Xue’s tolerance wasn’t only reflected in this incident. She had seen it many times before as well, though she had been unwilling to admit it, unwilling to accept it!
In short, a man like Ling Xue, when faced with strength, would only respond with even greater strength.
But when met with softness, he would naturally soften as well…
“Has senior perhaps experienced something similar?” Yun Luoxi suddenly asked.
Yun You seemed so experienced—could she have gone through something like this herself?
As soon as the words left her mouth, Yun Luoxi’s face immediately flushed red!
She quickly added, “Of… of course not! It’s just that… I’ve lived for many years and naturally have some understanding of matters between men and women!”
Indeed, nothing like that had ever happened to her.
But from her perspective, someone like Ling Xue should be dealt with using a softer approach.
Yun Luoxi was confused.
Then why do you seem so experienced?
“In any case, if you don’t dislike him that much, just listen to me!” Yun You waved her hand. “Go on!”
If they continued talking, she feared her image as an elder might waver.
Yun Luoxi pursed her lips and didn’t say much. “Then… thank you for your advice, senior. I’ll take my leave!”
With that, she turned and left the eleventh level.
Leaving Yun You sitting cross-legged alone.
She let out a light breath.
Love and relationships—she didn’t understand them.
After all, she had never met a man who truly made her heart flutter…
But at the very least, she had witnessed the love of others!
She was merely analyzing the psychology of others from an observer’s perspective.
And she was confident that her analysis was spot-on!
After all, Yun You was indeed an ancient being who had lived for many years…

When Yun Luoxi came down from the eleventh level, Ling Xue was already gone.
Only the tree demon was there, organizing herbs and pills.
“Where did he go?” Yun Luoxi asked immediately.
“Over there!” The tree demon casually pointed.
Without thinking too much, Yun Luoxi flew in that direction.
But when she arrived at the entrance of a tree cave room, her face flushed red.
Because Ling Xue was taking a medicinal bath!
He was soaking in the medicinal water, unclothed, with only his head and part of his chest visible.
His long white hair floated in the water, and the droplets from the medicinal liquid cascaded over his broad, muscular shoulders and chest. The scene was beautiful to the extreme…
Seeing this, Yun Luoxi’s face instantly turned crimson, and she hurriedly turned to leave.
“Stop!”
At that moment, Ling Xue suddenly called out.
Yun Luoxi halted her steps, standing at the doorway, her heart pounding, too shy to turn back.
“It’s not like you haven’t seen it before. Is this necessary?” Ling Xue’s voice came from behind.
Hearing this, Yun Luoxi frowned.
How dare you say that?
“I’m sore all over. Come over and massage my shoulders!” Ling Xue spoke again, his tone carrying an inexplicable command.
Yun Luoxi, of course, couldn’t agree!
She coldly replied, “Don’t even think about it!”
With that, she turned and was about to leave.
“One portion of the child flame!” Ling Xue called out again.
He directly named a price.
Hearing this, Yun Luoxi stopped in her tracks again!
She boldly turned around, locking her beautiful eyes with Ling Xue’s, and said firmly, “All of the child flames in your possession!”
“One portion of the flame wasn’t enough to make me bow to Ling Xue. No way!
But if you gave me all the flames, I might consider it.”
Ling Xue chuckled at this.
Looking at Yun Luoxi’s deliberately calm yet cold face, he responded, “Aren’t you asking for a bit too much? I only asked you to massage my shoulders, not join me in the bath!”
Hearing this, Yun Luoxi’s face turned even redder.
But she suppressed her embarrassment and continued, “Will you give them or not?”
“Two flames!” Ling Xue countered.
“All of them!” Yun Luoxi stood her ground.
“Three flames!” Ling Xue raised his offer.
“All of them!” Yun Luoxi remained firm.
“Forget it, then…” Ling Xue suddenly laughed.
“You…” Yun Luoxi’s face darkened.
Hmph!
She snorted coldly, shot a fierce glare at Ling Xue, and turned to leave.
Fine, if you won’t give them, I don’t care!
After Yun Luoxi left, Ling Xue remained in the medicinal bath alone.
A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
With Yun Luoxi’s prideful nature, she wouldn’t easily lower her head.
But asking him to give her all the remaining child flames just for a shoulder massage—of course, he wouldn’t agree.
If I gave them all to her, what leverage would I have in the future?
What if she has something valuable that I want later on?
’
After leaving Ling Xue, Yun Luoxi went to the top of the towering tree in that space.
Thinking back to the image of Ling Xue in the medicinal bath, she couldn’t help but feel her heart race and her face flush.
It took a while before she could calm herself.
Then, Yun You’s words echoed in her mind.
Should I yield?
Can my relationship with Ling Xue really… change?
But what exactly would yield entail?
For example, just now, should I have lowered her head and gone to massage him, trying to please him?
Would that count?
If it did, then what’s the point of yielding?
Wouldn’t I become nothing more than a servant to him in the future?
Yun Luoxi pushed aside her chaotic thoughts.
She quickly took out the cultivation technique Yun You had given her and immersed herself in studying it alone.
