Chapter 19

Women are water!

This was the first sentence Yue Yuan said to Yang Guo, but it was also the most important one.

The smart Yang Guo, upon seeing Yue Yuan's serious and solemn expression, naturally understood that this sentence was the key to what Yue Yuan would say next.

Moreover, after Yue Yuan spoke, strangely, Yang Guo also squinted his eyes and began to think, as if he had some insight.

"..."

Glancing at the squinting Yang Guo, Yue Yuan did not immediately continue. Instead, he paused for a moment, giving Yang Guo some time to think, before he continued, "Among all things in the world, only the word 'water' can describe women!"

"Like your aunt, Xiaolongnü, in my eyes, she can be considered the icy water on the snow mountain!"

"Though she is cold, she also demonstrates the meaning of icy water!"

"To touch the heart of such a woman, you must persistently warm her with your heart and your warmth, to make her return to normal!"

Looking at Yang Guo, Yue Yuan casually began to give examples, with Xiaolongnü being the representative. Meeting Yang Guo's strange gaze, Yue Yuan chuckled and said, "Don't glare at me, Yang brother. Imagine, is Long Girl like this?"

"..."

His lips twitched. Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with Yue Yuan's evaluation of his aunt, Yang Guo, after a moment of thought, realized that the other party was not wrong. Xiaolongnü's original state was exactly like this. Even when Sun Po died, she remained as cold as ever, showing no emotional fluctuations.

It's important to know that this was a point of great anger for Yang Guo towards Xiaolongnü.

At the beginning of their interaction, Xiaolongnü brought absolute bone-chilling coldness. If you could endure it... then the situation would change.

Taking Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü as an example, after spending more time together, Xiaolongnü's cold habits gradually changed, and her icy aura gradually diminished. It wasn't until Yang Guo developed romantic feelings for his aunt that Xiaolongnü slowly began to act more like a normal person.

But even so, Xiaolongnü was still very different from ordinary people.

With a look of surprise, Yang Guo's gaze fell on Yue Yuan. He couldn't describe the strange feeling he had towards this Taoist. However, what made Yang Guo curious was why Yue Yuan knew so much about his aunt...

If a man knew more about his aunt than he did, Yang Guo couldn't bear to imagine the situation.

Unconsciously, Yang Guo's gaze towards Yue Yuan became particularly targeted.

It was as if he had met a rival!

Yue Yuan didn't mind Yang Guo's piercing gaze and continued with a smile, "Yang brother, there's no need to look at me like that..."

"Hmm!"

After a moment of thought, Yang Guo retracted his slightly hostile gaze and asked, "Then, how do you evaluate Huang Rong, the former leader of the Beggar Clan and now the wife of Guo Jing, the great hero? What kind of water is she?"

"Spring water in the mountains, gathering the essence of heaven and earth, clear and transparent, yet mischievous and lively."

"Although this spring water is full of essence, its gentleness is only shown to those who belong to it. Outsiders only see the mischievous and lively side, and upon approaching, you will feel the hidden coldness in the spring water."

"Although the spring water is clear and transparent, it can ultimately belong to only one person, and the icy water on the snow mountain is even more so!"

Refilling his cup with wine, Yue Yuan said with a sigh. Regarding Xiaolongnü and Huang Rong, he felt that his understanding was not far off. Xiaolongnü is like the icy water on the snow mountain; many can bear her, but few can persistently touch her heart.

Think about it, how long did Yang Guo have to endure before he finally won the beauty's heart!

It's important to know that if things don't go well, the person who has become water might turn back into ice and snow. For example, see the part of the story where Xiaolongnü is in the Valley of Absolute Affection.

While Huang Rong is easy to approach, kind, and intelligent, in her heart, she truly cares only for Guo Jing, and now she has a daughter, Guo Fu. From the past situation where Huang Rong targeted Yang Guo, it's clear to see the hidden coldness of this spring water.

To obtain these two, one on the snow mountain and the other in the rugged mountains, the difficulty is evident. Typical failures include Yin Zhiping and Ouyang Ke.

"..."

Yang Guo remained silent, listening quietly to Yue Yuan's explanation. After a long while, he came back to his senses and saw Yue Yuan leisurely sipping his wine. He then asked, "Besides the icy water and the spring water in the mountains, are there any others?" Though it was a question, his tone was affirmative.

"Of course!"

Without any surprise, Yue Yuan gave the most affirmative answer, confirming Yang Guo's words with authority.

The atmosphere became silent again.

Yang Guo began to recall the women he had met, especially those whom the Taoist had also seen or were famous in the martial world. After a while, he thought of someone and asked with a smile, "Taoist Yue, what kind of water is Sun Budan, one of the Seven Disciples of the Complete Perfection Sect?"

Sun Budan?

Yue Yuan was taken aback, completely not expecting Yang Guo to suddenly ask about this woman, and a Taoist nun, an old Taoist nun at that.

But facing Yang Guo's expectant gaze, Yue Yuan couldn't let himself down.

His initial surprise had completely subsided, and he smiled and said, "Taoist Sun Budan... she is not far from being a stagnant pool!"

"Stagnant... pool?"

Yang Guo's mouth opened wide, completely not expecting such an answer from the Taoist. After a moment of shock, he asked, puzzled, "Taoist, please enlighten me!"

"This has to do with the Complete Perfection Sect and the former first person under heaven, Wang Chongyang!"

"At the beginning, Sun Budan and Ma Yu were a couple, and at that time, she was like a spring. She was at the peak of her life. Later, Sun Budan and Ma Yu became disciples of Wang Chongyang, thus stepping into the threshold of a stagnant pool! In such a situation, a woman's temper will gradually worsen."

"Yang brother, you should also be very familiar with the rules of the Complete Perfection Sect!"

Saying this, Yue Yuan casually threw the topic back to Yang Guo, looking at him with deep meaning.

"Rules?"

"You mean the rule of abstinence..."

At this point, Yang Guo suddenly understood. A couple joining the Complete Perfection Sect, which practices abstinence, would naturally lead to a certain situation. Thinking about this, Yang Guo muttered to himself, "No wonder Sun Budan has such a fiery temper!"

In the Complete Perfection Sect, Yang Guo had indeed witnessed Sun Budan's temper.

At this point, Yang Guo's gaze towards Yue Yuan was filled with admiration. He didn't know what kind of sect the Pure Yang was, or what Yue Taoist usually studied. But his questions didn't end there, and he asked his final question, "Taoist Yue, I have one last question to ask."

"Go ahead!"

Raising his right hand, Yue Yuan indicated that Yang Guo didn't need to be so formal.

"Please evaluate my former tomb disciple, the Crimson Lotus Fairy Li Mochou!"

Yang Guo's expression was very serious. To him, the only person in his life who truly made him feel shocked was this woman, this beautiful aunt.

"The Crimson Lotus Fairy... "

A long sigh. Yue Yuan had always felt a sense of pity towards this woman. Hearing Yang Guo's request for an evaluation, he first thought for a moment before slowly saying, "In the past, she was a stream by the house, flowing with happy notes, gentle yet stubbornly adorable, always wanting to flow down the small channel to the house below, wanting to enter the water jar of that household..."

"But now, she is a mountain flood after a summer storm, with the forest cut down and the small channel blocked, unable to remain calm. In the end, she can only surge down, destroying the small channel and the house that blocked it, destroying her dreams."

"Success and failure are both human!"

Regarding Lu Zhan yuan's fate, it was like modern deforestation, where one reaps what one sows.

As Yue Yuan slowly spoke, Yang Guo's expression became increasingly strange, and his gaze towards Yue Yuan became extremely peculiar.

"Huh?"

Seeing Yang Guo's strange expression, his twitching lips, and his jumping eyebrows, Yue Yuan was puzzled, "Does Yang brother think I'm wrong? Is there anything you want to add?"

However, Yue Yuan didn't get a response from Yang Guo. Instead, a clear, bell-like voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"So, I am the mountain flood..."

It was a sigh, a complaint, and a hard-to-describe anger.

Instantly, Yue Yuan felt his scalp tingle, and his hair almost stood on end.

Slowly turning around, he saw a beautiful Taoist nun in a light yellow robe, holding a duster and a long sword, staring at him with a deep, intense gaze. Beside her was a limping, beautiful, and charming young girl.

It was none other than the Crimson Lotus Fairy Li Mochou and her disciple, Lu Wushuang.
