The Villain Has Something to Say Chapter 142 - Twitterpated Couple (I)

Chapter 142: Twitterpated Couple (I)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Luo Jianqing had been acting as a well-mannered disciple who always treated his Elders with respect, but, this time, he showed no intention of following the etiquette. Letting his words sink in, Luo Jianqing bowed, immediately turned back, and walked out of Ling Yun Palace.
Astonished, Hao Xingzi still couldn’t believe what he heard, while Luo Jianqing already left Cang Shuang Peak.
Though he had got back to Yu Xiao Peak already, Luo Jianqing was still a little bit nervous. After all, it was the Sect Master whom he was talking with. Breaking every etiquette, he showed no respect to Hao Xingzi and even decided by himself that he would leave Tai Hua Mountain with his Master for gaining experiences. However, after he got back from Cang Shuang Peak, Luo Jianqing found that Xuan Lingzi already knew his plan.
“You want to go out?” Xuan Lingzi asked.
Luo Jianqing got nervous all of a sudden, but somehow plucked up his courage, “Yep, and you are coming with me.”
Xuan Lingzi frowned, “Why do I need to leave as well?”
Chuckling, Luo Jianqing suddenly shortened their distance. Xuan Lingzi didn’t expect this and reeled back a little.
Under the sickle moon, a young man with breathtaking visage slightly curved the corner of his mouth, fixing his eyes on the love of his life. His gaze was limpid and ethereal like an immortal’s, but his words were nothing like so, “You are coming with me because I want you to accompany me. So, Wu Yin… are you coming or not?”
Xuan Lingzi was gazing at his disciple, moved. His heart even skipped a beat.
He finally nodded, showing a faint smile, “Alright, we are leaving together.”
Three days later, Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi left Yu Xiao Peak together.
The contract between Human and Demon Clans was broken by Xuan Lingzi. The Fiend Exalt didn’t send any message to Tai Hua Mountain regarding this accident, as if he heard nothing about it, and, oddly, the Demon Clan showed no sign of intrusion as well. Duan Hun Sect, as the representatives for all the cultivators who blamed Xuan Lingzi for his action, was planning to embarrass the genius that day, but were shocked by Xuan Lingzi’s power. Thus, the sect decided that now was not the best time to bother Tai Hua Mountain.
During the three days when the Master and the disciple were still staying at Yu Xiao Peak, Hao Xingzi came to visit them, worried about Luo Jianqing’s health.
After all, as a cultivator who has been cultivating for two thousand years, Hao Xingzi couldn’t and wouldn’t fully express his apology. Nonetheless, he tried his best by visiting the young disciple. When he was about to leave Yu Xiao Peak, Xuan Lingzi – wearing a set of white robe – accompanied him to the end of the bamboo forest, “Brother, as the leader of all the righteous cultivators, cultivators of Tai Hua Mountain have paid all of their efforts on protecting all the human beings on this continent for countless years. However, that doesn’t mean that we – the Masters and disciples of Tai Hua Mountain – are their servants. Thirty thousand years ago, Tai Hua Mountain represented thorough authority and power, a sect which no one ever dared to mess with; nowadays, I believe, Tai Hua Mountain still does.”
Remaining quiet for a while, Hao Xingzi sighed, “Actually, it might be a good thing – breaking the contract.”
Xuan Lingzi nodded.
They chatted for a while till Hao Xingzi left.
Just like Luo Jaiqing said in Ling Yun Palace, the Master and the disciple was ready to leave Tai Hua Mountain on the fourth day. When they departed, Luo Jianqing asked Zuo Yunmo to do him a favor – to deliver a message to Fo Zi, asking the monk to find Mo Qiu.
Given Mo Qiu’s identity, Luo Jianqing couldn’t stay contact with him, so he asked Fo Zi for help. The latter was living in Cen State which was neighboring the Fiend Palace. If he couldn’t get in touch with Mo Qiu, then, perhaps, there wouldn’t be any other who could.
The reason why Luo Jianqing trying so hard to find his friend of life and death was that he was planning to visit the Northern Land of Arctic, in order to find what was remained of the Great Elder of Mo Family – Mo Qiu’s ancestor.
Among the Eight Zones of Risk, the Northern Land of Arctic was definitely the most dangerous one. If a cultivator stepped into the realm without reaching Gold Core Period, the possibility of his or her survival was little. A Gold-Core-Period cultivator might still have one third of chance to get out of there if the cultivator was only at the edge of the Zone of Risk. However, if one got to the heart of the Northern Land of Arctic, even Xuan Lingzi couldn’t be one hundred percent confident that they wouldn’t encounter any serious danger.
Nonetheless, Luo Jianqing had to visit this Zone of Risk.
During these days resting at Tai Hua Mountain, Luo Jianqing spent half of a day on Hao Ming Peak. He gathered some information from the disciples of Hao Ming Peak and managed to knew what Li Xiuchen was doing these years. The lad was cultivating on Hao Ming Peak, rarely went out. The only thing that could be said as abnormal was that he went to Bi Can Peak to visit Mu Ruorong very often. The girl failed to come up with a proper reason to refuse his constant intrusion, given that they had met each other before Mu Ruorong came to Tai Hua Mountain.
Thus, Mu Ruorong accepted twice out of countless requests of Li Xiuchen’svisiting, and that became the ‘solid evidence’ – in Li Xiuchen’s point of view – that Mu Ruorong still had feelings for him, so he visited her even more often. When Wei Qiongyin came back and heard the rumors, she went to Mu Ruorong’s lodge at once and saw the annoying man badger with her Young Sister.
Without saying a word, Wei Qiongyin unsheathed her sword immediately, pointing at Li Xiuchen’s throat.
The female cultivator in a black robe was expressionless. She warned the misbehaving man in an ice-cold tone, “If you dare to come to Bi Can Peak again, I won’t stop my sword until it pierces your throat!”
Scared, Li Xiuchen made himself scarce immediately.
Though Wei Qiongyin had no good impression of Li Xiuchen, other disciples of Bi Can Peak had different thought.
“I heard that Brother Li was one of the most well-known disciples of Hao Ming Peak recently. Almost reaching the Gold Core Period, Brother Li has such an astonishing cultivating speed, especially in the recent years. I heard from another Hao Ming Peak’s disciple that Brother Li doesn’t even have a Spiritual Bone! Can you believe that? Maintaining such a quick, constant pace of improvement, he really has something.”
“That’s right. Though he is acting slightly abnormal, I feel like he is not a bad guy.”
Yes, Li Xiuchen’s cultivation base was growing at a crazy speed.
Well, that speed was only ‘crazy’ if taking Li Xiuchen’s Spiritual Bone into consideration. Compared with Luo Jianqing, Li Xiuchen’s cultivation could be described as zero improvement. Luo Jianqing noticed that Li Xiuchen’s cultivating speed was even faster than that in Li Xiuchen’s last life. This, unavoidably, reminded Luo Jianqing of the Heavenly Will which always kept Li Xiuchen safe from all the dangers.
Could this be a sign that the Heavenly Will was about to give Li Xiuchen even more conveniences?
No one had an answer to his question. Luo Jianqing spent some time chatting with Xie Zizhuo on Hao Ming Peak. Before he left, Luo Jianqing said something casually, “Entering the gate of Tai Hua Mountain, we became fellow brothers. However, Fourth Younger Brother, if someone dares to pester any female disciple, we shall teach him a lesson.”
Confused, Xie Zizhuo didn’t get what Luo Jianqing meant by that. However, when Luo Jianqing came to visit Guang Lingzi before his departure, Xie Zizhuo found that his Senior Brother brought that up again. “Martial Uncle, my Master and I shall leave Tai Hua Mountain for a while. There will be months that I can’t fulfill my duty as the Great Senior Brother of all the disciples of Tai Hua Mountain. My apologies, Sir.”
Guang Lingzi laughed. He didn’t blame Luo Jianqing at all, “Why, Jianqing, you already done an excellent job as the Great Senior Disciple.”
Luo Jianqing insisted, “But I still feel sorry for my negligence.”
Though bold and sometimes careless, Guang Lingzi wasn’t a fool. Immediately realizing that Luo Jianqing had something to tell him, Guang Lingzi laughed, “Jianqing, just say it. Are you worried that I won’t listen?”
Luo Jianqing cupped his hands in respect and went on, “Then I will be frank. Yesterday, my Third Younger Sister told me that there is one disciple of Hao Ming Peak constantly coming to Bi Can Peak to harass…” Pausing for a second, Luo Jianqing continued expressionlessly, “…to visit a Younger Sister.”
Widening his eyes, Xie Zizhuo stared at Luo Jianqing in astonishment, feeling that he respected his Great Senior Disciple even more.
See, this is the art of speech!
My Great Senior Brother had a silver tongue! Without unpacking any detail, he told Li Xiuchen on Master Xie Zizhuo while leaving him to imagine what really happened.
Recalling what Luo Jianqing told him, Xie Zizhuo stepped up and said, “Master, Great Senior Brother has his point. Things like this really happen. I’m about to ask for your permission to punish that misbehaving disciple.”
Though he always treated Xie Zizhuo like a…hum, sand bag, Guang Lingzi actually really adored him. Hearing their words, Guang Lingzi already knew whom they were referring to. However, he didn’t stop them.
One was his favorite Senior Disciple, while the other was Xuan Lingzi’s Closed-Door Disciple – the future Master of Yu Xiao Peak, if what they said was true, a punishment for that lad was necessary. Well, they didn’t have the guts to lie to him either. Thinking about this, Guang Lingzi granted it, “Alright then, I believe you know how to deal with a thing like this, right?”
Xie Zizhuo chuckled, “Sure I do, Master.”
