Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Chapter 114: Chapter 114 They Actually Provoked It

Translator: 549690339

Wuyue Residence, Jiang Lei and Zhou Wenqi sat on the sofa.

Tied to the ground by Yue Linger’s Binding Immortal Rope, Jiang Cheng had an Intelligent Puppet Talisman attached to him.

Yue Linger and Liu Qing moved chairs honestly and sat between Jiang Cheng and his parents.

Jiang Lei didn’t know what to say, and pointed at Jiang Cheng on the ground, “Are you guys, playing a game?”

Yue Linger hurriedly explained, “Uncle, we’re testing new talismans. It’s not what you think. We and Jiang Cheng are purely platonic.”

“Friends,” Liu Qing said.

“Right, right, just friends,” Yue Linger quickly nodded.

“You’re not,” Liu Qing said to Yue Linger.

Liu Qing was certain that Yue Linger was not really Jiang Cheng’s friend, because Jiang Cheng had told her that she was his only female friend.

Jiang Cheng wouldn’t lie to her, so it must be Yue Linger who was talking nonsense.

“I…” Yue Linger glanced at Liu Qing, then at Jiang Cheng’s parents.

No, I just said it casually, after all, I can’t call him ‘Dad’ in front of his parents, can I?

Unable to move, two “pure” “friends” started arguing right in front of his parents.

Jiang Lei and Zhou Wenqi, although worldly, had never seen “pure friends” like these. And now, these two were already arguing over the title of “friend.” Could they still be just “friends”? Who ever fights over the position of being “a friend”?

Jiang Lei, who had also been young once, was already sweating profusely.

Checking up by parents + “friends” arguing + inability to explain oneself. It was a situation where one wrong step made it hard to end things properly.

“Could we first let Jiang Cheng loose?” In the end, it was Zhou Wenqi who spoke up.

Yue Linger quickly nodded, ran over to peel off the Intelligent Puppet Talisman, and then removed the Binding Immortal Rope.

Jiang Cheng was freed from being controlled.

To his surprise, he realized that while under control, he couldn’t feel any fatigue in his body at all, but as soon as the control ended, fatigue would still sweep over him.

This was quite a drawback.

But it didn’t matter, as he was using it in the Illusion Realm anyway, and no matter how tired one got in the Illusion Realm, it wouldn’t kill them.

As long as he didn’t place the Intelligent Puppet Talisman in reality to do things that seriously overtaxed the body, it shouldn’t be a big deal.

Jiang Lei kindly pointed out to Jiang Cheng, “Jiang Cheng, aren’t you going to introduce these two to your mom?”

Jiang Cheng briefly introduced them, “Oh. This is my friend Liu Qing, and this is Yue Linger, kind of a colleague. If I can get into Lotus University, she’ll also be my senior.”

Jiang Lei laughed, “Oh, all proper relations, ah, dad gets it.”

Zhou Wenqi glanced at Jiang Lei and asked Liu Qing and Yue Linger, “How did you both get to know Jiang Cheng?”

Liu Qing and Yue Linger simultaneously looked towards Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Lei swallowed nervously when he saw this.

Enough already!

Don’t be so obvious with your actions!

Which normal friends look to Jiang Cheng for cues before answering a question?

Jiang Cheng, on the other hand, was completely relaxed, “Just tell the truth.”

Liu Qing looked at Zhou Wenqi, “Work.”

“Yeah. I met her when I was looking to hire staff,” Jiang Cheng explained.

Yue Linger thought for a moment and said, “I also got to know Jiang Cheng through work.”

“Yeah. It just happened that we both wanted to take on the Fluorescence Talisman task,” continued Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Lei covered his face with both hands in dismay.

He didn’t know what to say.

Two abnormal friends, both supposedly met through “work,” who would believe such a story?

Zhou Wenqi certainly didn’t. The more she asked, the more she felt that Jiang Cheng’s relationship with these two female cultivators was not ordinary.

Whether it was Jiang Lei or Jiang Cheng, Zhou Wenqi was against “having several irons in the fire.”

Embracing left and right sounds wonderful, but in reality, it’s nothing but continuous trouble. Women, especially beautiful ones, are always the most troublesome. Not even the Emperor of Liang could suppress the beauties in his harem; it’s best for ordinary people to recognize their lot and not act up but to live a steady life instead.

Zhou Wenqi sighed and decided not to lecture in front of Jiang Cheng’s two “friends.” She got up with Jiang Lei, preparing to say goodbye.

Just then, the door of Jiang Cheng’s home was knocked on again.

Liu Qing skillfully got up to open the door.

“Hello there, is Jiang Cheng here? Hey!”

Bai Xiaohe, who came to invite Jiang Cheng for a meal, walked in.

Thanks to the success of her Fishing Talismans, Bai Xiaohe had successfully set a new performance record for the Tongtian Sect in the Liang Kingdom. As a result, being a “top employee,” He could apply for a transfer to any industry managed by the Outer Sect in the Liang Kingdom.

After finding out that Jiang Cheng was also preparing to go to the Capital, He did not hesitate to apply to go home.

Today, she was ready to treat Jiang Cheng, Liu Qing, and Yue Linger to a meal. After all, she owed her current success entirely to Jiang Cheng.

But when He walked into the apartment’s living room and saw Jiang Cheng’s parents, she was at a loss.

Jiang Lei didn’t know what to say at this moment.

Zhou Wenqi looked at the new arrival, who was obviously thoughtfully dressed and had carefully applied light makeup, and she was mostly clear in her heart.

This one was most likely involved with her son Jiang Cheng in some ambiguous way.

“Your name is, Lin Yao, right?” Zhou Wenqi took the initiative to greet her.

After all, according to Sun Yuan, Lin Yao was Jiang Cheng’s “official” girlfriend.

Bai Xiaohe shook her head and said, “No, I’m not. My surname is Bai, and my name is Bai Xiaohe.”

Jiang Lei thought: Okay, okay, so this is not Lin Yao, my son you’re more capable than your father was back in the day.

Zhou Wenqi was already numb.

Jiang Cheng’s existence seriously challenged her worldview.

She couldn’t understand how, a seemingly honest male cultivator like her son Jiang Cheng, could be so popular with female cultivators.

This one, two, three, and then there’s that Lin Yao, not one of them looked like an ordinary female cultivator who could settle down for a simple life!

“Jiang Cheng, your mom and dad are going back first. Come home early tonight, don’t stay out, too late.”

He was in shock; she never expected that these two were Jiang Cheng’s parents!

She hurriedly said politely, “Uncle, Auntie, goodbye!”

“Mhm, goodbye, we’re leaving now.”

Yue Linger also said, “Uncle, Auntie, goodbye.”

“Mhm, goodbye to you too.”

“Goodbye.”

“Alright, alright, goodbye, goodbye.”

At the elevator entrance, Jiang Lei sighed, “Ah, having too many daughters-in-law is not good either, can’t even greet them all properly.”

Zhou Wenqi gave Jiang Lei a look and said, “I never thought your son would have such abilities! Out of those three in the house, the worst is also better than your wife.”

Jiang Lei’s will to live kicked in, “Don’t, don’t. I think, only Liu Qing can stand up to my wife. The other two are still a bit short, just a bit. At best they are younger than you, but back in the day, you were… right?”

Zhou Wenqi sighed and said, “Aside from those three, there’s at least one more!”

“Oh right, Lin Yao, right?”

Zhou Wenqi entered the elevator and said to Jiang Lei, “I don’t care about other people’s kids, but ours definitely has to find a sensible, filial, and honest female cultivator.”

“How about that Liu Qing?” Jiang Lei suggested, “She looks like she’d be good at raising children.”

“Her personality is a bit too dull.”

“What about Yue Linger?”

“She doesn’t seem like the low-maintenance type.”

“That Bai something or other?”

“She’s alright, quite polite. Just seems a bit mature; I don’t know how old she is. It’s not good if she’s too much older than Jiang Cheng.”

Jiang Lei sighed and said, “I was quite worried about Jiang Cheng’s future relationships, but I didn’t expect that the two of us would have already started picking and choosing. And honestly, any one of those three in the house would be a cause for celebration if married into our family. Be content. There are so many young single male cultivators these days; it’s good enough that Jiang Cheng found someone.”

“It’s not just good, but three times, no, four times as good.”

“Oh right, four times; I almost forgot about Lin Yao.”

“It’s not easy for us to come back this time. We have to find a way to get Jiang Cheng to bring Lin Yao over for a look. What if she’s more suitable than the three in the house?”
