Text-based martial arts: A nighttime rendezvous with the gang leader's wife in a dilapidated te

Chapter 8: A Serendipitous Encounter and its Ending! A Martial World Where Looks Matter!

Outside the dilapidated temple, lingering raindrops dripped from the walls and eaves, making a pitter-patter sound.

Inside the dilapidated temple, the embers of the campfire illuminated the woman's stunning beauty.

[And those fair, delicate shoulders, like mutton-fat jade.]

Following the faint firelight, you can glimpse the embroidered fish-patterned bodice.

The delicate fragrance makes your throat involuntarily move.

You didn't expect things to develop this way.

Therefore, faced with this situation, you should also make your next choice:

Option 1: Lust at first sight: Faced with such temptation, of course you wouldn't refuse!

(Defying Fate: Note that this option leads to different outcomes depending on your own attributes!)

(If your own innate constitution is greater than 14 points, or you possess the Yellow-level destiny "Undying Golden Spear", or you take a special medicine of Earth-level or higher, you can obtain the serendipitous ending "One Night of Spring Breeze": After you are completely exhausted and fall into a deep sleep, she has already gracefully departed. Apart from the enchanting memories in the darkness, it seems that nothing was left behind.)

(If your innate constitution is <14 points and >8 points, and you have no medicine or special destiny, the following adventure ending will be triggered: "To die under the peony flower, even as a ghost, is romantic": She looks at you with complicated emotions, finally sighs, and strikes out with a palm. If your cultivation level is "Innate", you can block the palm strike, and then continue the dialogue. If your cultivation level is insufficient, you will die.)

(If your innate talent is ≤8 points and you have no medicine or special destiny, the adventure ending "Silver-faced Spearhead" will be triggered: She looks at you with disdain and strikes with a disappointing palm. If your cultivation level is "Innate", you can block the palm strike and then trigger further dialogue. If your cultivation level is insufficient, you will die.)

"..."

Chen Xuan's lips twitched involuntarily as he looked at the first option in front of him.

14 points on the root bone?

Damn it, the maximum number of points you can add to your initial attribute points is only 6!

Looking at that damn guide on the forum, the difficulty of increasing attributes in this lousy game is extremely high. Those 14 points of constitution might even be enough for him to play until he dies.

such a pity!

Although Chen Xuan was filled with regret, he had no choice but to select the only remaining option that he despised:

[Option 2: Remaining Unmoved by Temptation: Faced with such temptation, you chose to stay true to yourself, gently pushing away the object. Although the force was small, it demonstrated your determination!]

(Defying Fate: During the adventure phase "Love Turns to Hate," subsequent story options are triggered.)

Amidst temptations and desires, you made the choice to stay true to yourself!

Facing the person in front of you, you took a deep breath and then gently nudged them.

Your action caught her off guard and left her stunned.

She looked at your face, pale yet still resolute.

[Now I understand, you weren't joking.]

She was rejected?

She looked at you incredulously.

"Little beggar, what do you mean by this?"

She seems to have never been rejected throughout her life! No matter what it is!

You calmly look at that face that was previously so crazed and dangerous:

"Madam, I don't know why you're so sad, but I still hope you won't do anything you'll regret at this time."

Upon hearing this, she was taken aback again.

However, she quickly changed her expression to one of disdain:

"Little beggar, who says I'm sad? Do you know who I am?"

How would you answer her question?

[Option 1: Flattery and fawning: "I don't know, but I know you must be a very important person with great power and influence..."]

(Defying Fate: Triggering the "Forced Man Locks Him Up" adventure. She smiled contemptuously, "Since you know, why don't you obediently listen?", returning to the "Lust at First Sight" choice, with no other options.)

Option 2: Play dumb. "I don't know, who are you?"

(Defying Fate: Triggering the serendipitous ending 'I was just passing by': She was slightly taken aback, then sighed, but regained her composure. Too lazy to pay attention to you, she turned and left the temple after dawn, and you had no further contact with her.)

[Option 3: Completely indifferent. "I don't know, and I don't want to know. All I know is that I am a lost soul who has no one to confide in, who comes to this place in the dead of night where only lonely ghosts dwell, yet no one follows him."]

(Defying Fate: If the hidden attribute Charm is ≥ 'Handsome and Charming', the adventure stage 'Night Talk in the Dilapidated Temple' will be triggered. Random adventure rewards will be obtained based on the favorability value of subsequent dialogue. If the conditions are not met, the adventure ending 'I Was Just Passing By' will be triggered.)

Looking at this last option, Chen Xuan finally clenched his fist and breathed a sigh of relief.

Damn it, it turns out that you really do need good looks to succeed in the world of martial arts.

I love this world that judges people by their looks!

I love this world where looks matter even more!

Without much thought, Chen Xuan pointed directly to the third option. Putting everything else aside, his charisma had already been proven.

Chen Xuan really didn't believe that in the previous stage, his charm was inferior to that of "a rat-faced man".

Who does he think he is?

Jiang Da Bailang's reputation is not undeserved.

[Looking at the beautiful woman before you, who is putting on a brave front, your expression remains extremely calm.]

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. All I know is that what's before me is a lost soul who has no one to confide in, who comes to this place in the dead of night where only lonely ghosts dwell, yet no one follows him."

She paused slightly, looking at you carefully for the first time:

Beneath her disheveled hair, her starry eyes shimmered with light and fire.

Despite his frail frame, his spine remained upright.

At this moment, she seemed to finally realize:

You're right, you're definitely not some little beggar.

She finally revealed a genuine, helpless smile.

"Is this a place for wandering ghosts? Does that mean you've become a wandering ghost too?"

I must say, her smile was absolutely beautiful.

You nodded involuntarily, and then involuntarily said:

"Yes, we are all wandering ghosts, so, this wandering heroine, if you have anything that's making you sad, you can tell this young wandering ghost."

Her smile became more genuine again, and she seemed particularly pleased with your new nickname, though she still gave a soft hum.

"Smooth-talking!"

She let out a breath, as if a tremendous burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

Yes, here, she has no status to hold her back, no worries or suspicions.

She sat by the campfire as well and began to tell a story.

This is not something particularly rare or bizarre.

It's nothing more than a childhood friendship, a match made in heaven, and childhood sweethearts.

[It's just a story about discovering that a loved one's heart has changed after marriage.]

You didn't interrupt; you simply quietly fulfilled your duty as the "Young Wanderer."

[Through this account and these encounters, "Dragon Blue Fish" gains 20 points of goodwill towards you (casual acquaintance).]
