Chapter 1286: The Path Of Apocalypse (9)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ming Shu didn’t expect the lady to come and look for her. She came at a time when Qi Yu was not around.
The lady sized up Ming Shu. “You… are a spirit?”
Ming Shu maintained her smile. “Why are you looking for me?”
The lady was called Xuan Zhi. She came from a cultivating world. She had good skills and looked cute. Everyone treated her well.
She liked Qi Yu for a long time. However, Qi Yu seldom came to the base. Sometimes, he would only come back after half a year.
Most importantly, she heard the people who hung around Qi Yu saying that there were no ladies around Qi Yu at all.
Yet this time, he came back with a lady… a beautiful lady.
“What is your relationship with Lord Nine?” Xuan Zhi raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a complicated expression.
“I’ve slept with him.” Why is she looking at me like this? I never bullied her!
Xuan Zhi widened her eyes. She blushed. “You…”
You’re so shameless!
“You don’t understand Lord Nine.” Xuan Zhi bit her lips and complained weakly, “You’re a spirit. You can’t get together with Lord Nine.”
Ming Shu suddenly reached out her hand.
Xuan Zhi instinctively stepped back. She stopped when she remembered that Ming Sh was a spirit.
Something cold landed on her hand.
Xuan Zhi looked at her in surprise.
Ming Shu smiled. “I can do anything I want with him.”
Xuan Zhi’s face turned red again. How can she say this!
No, wait!
She can touch me? Isn’t she a spirit?
She heard the elders in her faction saying that spirits could cultivate too. Toward the end, these spirits were able to get a real body…
She retracted her hand instantly. She straightened her back and tried to raise her voice. “I want to have a fair fight with you.”
No matter what she was, Xuan Zhi would not give up.
Ming Shu found it funny. “It’s obvious that he doesn’t like you. Hence, the fight is not fair from the start.”
Xuan Zhi pouted. Tears appeared in her eyes. “But I really like him. Can you give him to me?”
Ming Shu said softly, “If he liked you and I asked you to give him to me, would you do it?”
Xuan Zhi: “…”
She wouldn’t.
Xuan Zhi wiped her tears. “I don’t care. I want to have a fair fight with you! I will send you a challenge letter now. If you don’t accept it, you are… you are… you are an idiot!”
Xuan Zhi ran off after shouting.
Ming Shu: “…”
Her rival in love was a little cute.
Ming Shu went to look for Bai Zhu and heard from him that Xuan Zhi was a naive little girl. She was protected by the seniors in her faction very well.
When she came to this world, she met them almost immediately so she never had any hardships.
She worked hard to teach them cultivation. Although the effects were almost non-existent, she still persevered.
Most people in the base liked her.
Ming Shu saw Xuan Zhi sitting down and meditating with a few people in the training room. There was technologically advanced equipment all around them. The scene was weird.
Those people must be trying to please Xuan Zhi.
Ming Shu sighed. She went back to her room.
Qi Yu was busy with Qi He’s rescue mission and Ming Shu was too lazy to find him. She waited for him in the room. She needed to save her energy.
…
On her sixth day at the base, Ming Shu watched Xuan Zhi teaching a bunch of people how to cultivate. She was too bored.
She was so bored she even started watching her rival in love… She was probably the only person who would do this.
Bang!
A huge sound came from above.
The people below looked up. No one knew what happened.
“Aunt Mei is looking for Lord Nine again…”
“There is no news about the director. It’s normal that Aunt Mei would look for Lord Nine…”
“Let’s go and take a look.”
A few people ran passed Ming Shu. Xuan Zhi heard this news and came out. She bumped into Ming Shu, who was walking out too.
Xuan Zhi glared at her. She twitched her nose and scoffed before running away.
Ming Shu: “…”
Her rival in love didn’t like her.
Little Beastie muttered in her mind, Trash-picker, are you stupid. It would be weird if she liked you.
Ming Shu felt that it made sense. “But, don’t you think that her reaction is cute?”
If she continued to tease her, she might explode in anger.
Is she as cute as the two-legged beast without fur?
“Nope.” Her little demon was better.
Little Beastie continued, Am I cuter?
Ming Shu complimented it. “You are the cutest.”
Little Beastie was satisfied.
It knew that its trash-picker liked it the most. The two-legged beast didn’t have any fur. It was so ugly!
…
It was a mess upstairs. There were no signs of Qi He after so many days of searching. Also, their entire spaceship was destroyed so most people thought that Qi He was dead.
Aunt Mei couldn’t control herself anymore. She charged toward Qi Yu.
Under normal circumstances, Aunt Mei cared very much about her image.
However, since her precious son was implicated in this, she couldn’t care anymore.
When Ming Shu walked up the stairs, she heard Aunt Mei’s shrill voice. “You are an unlucky person. You caused the death of your mother…”
Qi Yu didn’t look good. There was anger in his eyes.
“Why are you glaring at me? Did I say anything wrong? You killed your mother. You are an unlucky person. Anyone who stays beside you will have bad luck. Even Little He is missing now… Ah…”
The woman screamed in pain. The place became quiet.
Aunt Mei bumped into the object beside her and scraped her forehead.
Ming Shu retracted her leg. Under Xuan Zhi’s shocked gaze, she walked toward Qi Yu. “I’m sorry. I had a cramp in my leg.”
Aunt Mei covered her head. She felt dizzy for a moment. She turned and looked at the culprit with angry eyes. “Where did you come from, you little bitch? How dare you hit me?”
“This is not my first time. Why are you so agitated?” Ming Shu smiled. “I hit you last time too.”
Aunt Mei: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Ming Shu looked at Aunt Mei. Her tone was gentle. “Did I not make myself clear enough last time? Your Little He jumped down the spaceship himself. No one forced him to. He chose his own path. Whether he is dead or alive is up to his own fate. He has been finding ways to look for Little He these few days. What right do you have to make a fuss over here? Just because you’re his mother? Did you bully him just because he doesn’t have anyone helping him?
She was referring to Qi Yu at the end.
Ming Shu walked toward Aunt Mei. Qi Yu didn’t stop her. Aunt Mei started to feel afraid for some reason and stepped back.
She retreated to the wall.
Ming Shu stood two steps away from her and smiled. “What did you say just now? Unlucky person? Why are you still alive then?”
The last sentence was extremely malicious.
The smile on her face made everyone feel eerie.
Aunt Mei stopped breathing. She stammered, “Y-you!”
Ming Shu smiled and raised her hand. She struck Aunt Mei.
Before Aunt Mei could speak, she fainted.
Everyone: “…” So scary.
