[Azapuela]

@gilanggifari02 you mean stupid? he couldve just shut up and not take the pill, now he brought bad name to MC, and in the first place mc didnt say he should eat the pill

When a supporting character has more romance progress the M.C. -_-

In real life nice guy stuff like this will yield varying results 😅

 

[Genoshock]

the whole thing was to break through to 7th realm, not stay there ... deceive you? no, exactly what you agreed to

 

[Elhao]

Holy crap, what's wrong with her shoulder in the last panel on page 4?

 

[Acolytus]

Why is he so in love with her anyway? He saw her for like 5 minutes and she spent 80% of that time acting like a bitch.

What's up with male characters in this story falling in love with the first boring girl they come across?

 

[hartex92]

@Elhao, maybe the residue effect from drain the poison out, but I didnt be sure about that.
Its more like the author painted her shoulder way reddish than it should be.

@Acolytus

tbf in the ancient era this is supposed to be set in, many nobles would only be paired based on wealth, looks, and status. He likes her mainly for her looks and she acts like a 'bitch' because she, as a woman who already has everything, desires a husband who has everything plus more. Literally almost everyone in that world who has a simliar amount to her acts like a bitch, whether male or female. I don't really consider her that much of a bitch compared to that other girl that held a marriage tournament. God she was insufferable.

Our MC is no different really, he fell in love with the first pretty girl who was nice to him and still holds on to that emotion even though he's spent so much more time with the princess. I think it's just a chinese series thing but at the same time, I think a lot has to do with what the culture was like in ancient china in general.

@Azapuela he likes her enough to not want to deceive her. Simple as that. Using something like this is considered 'cheating' which is why MC gave him the choice to do it or not. Something achieved with a legendary pill rather than hard effort/strength that the girl wants is undermining both of their values and starts off the relationship with a lie he'd have to live with. ATM, he's just telling her he has a way but he won't do that because he'll try to earnestly earn her trust and love. If that fails then well, at least he tried with his own efforts.

These are martial artists and perspective into their ethics is important to consider when they make decisions like this.

And I get what you're saying, he could have not taken the pill and not said anything either. I think it's just for muh fall in love PLOT.
At the same time he's kind of showing off the power of his brother, showing her "it's possible like you denied bih" kinda thing.

 

[Elhao]

@hartex92 I didn't mean the color but its pointy form and the horribly thin arm.

 

[Darth_Noox]

@Genoshock Indeed, though it may be morally questionable it wouldn’t be wrong according to the rules

 

[Kayriel]

@Acolytus

Because in cultivator novels/wuxia/xianxia, love is actually just 'righteous lust'. Rather than actual love, for some reason. He saw her, his dick got hard, and he felt like he wanted to keep seeing her = love, apparently.

 

[DeanWinchester]

@Genoshock I said the same earlier.
The condition was to reach stage 7. Nobody ever said anything about how!
This really shows how bright they are.
Xing could have forced the pill down his brother´s throat in the meeting hall, and still would have cleared all conditions.

 

[Azapuela]

@Hamin showing off a way off cheating is not the best way of showing off

 

[Hamin]

@Azapuela yeh I get that but it’s only cheating in the context of this bet. Outside of this bet it’s a powerful tool and method to be able to ascend to the next level in 3 days

@Acolytus To be honest these guys are all in their late teens at best so no surprise they fall in love so quick
