Chapter Sixty Seven – Questions and Answers (2/2)
Desperately needing rest, Zuo Mo felt his head was going to explode.
“Stop the noise!” Suddenly, a voice passed over, and everyone instantly quieted.
Xu Yi had accompanied two females over. Zuo Mo saw clearly that it was Eldest Shijie Gong Sun Qing and Xu Yi Xia Shijie. The one that had spoken was Xu Yi Shixiong. Xu Yi waved his hand, “Leave.”
Seeing the situation, the outer sect disciples scattered like birds.
Xu Yi bowed to Zuo Mo and said, “Shidi, don’t blame me for overstepping. It really is too noisy with all these people here.”
Zuo Mo hurriedly returned the bow, “Many thanks, Shixiong. This little brother’s eyes are already dizzy. If Shixiong had been just a moment late, this little brother would have been dead right here.” Then he bowed towards Gong Sun Qing and Xu Yi Xia, “Eldest Shijie, Yi Xia Shijie!”
“Hee! You are actually somewhat interesting~a!” A green-clad Xu Yi Xia laughed.
Zuo Mo was deeply cautious and alert towards this innocent-looking girl. Li Ying Feng Shijie said that the jade scroll had been from Xu Yi Xia Shijie. What the intentions were at that time of giving him that jade scroll were hard to tell.
Gong Sun Qing smiled warmly, responding, “Shidi looks very tired. Why don’t we come another day?”
“What is Shijie saying, come come come. Everyone come in and have some tea.” Zuo Mo hurriedly said and then made a joke, “But I don’t have Shixiong’s ling tea. Please don’t blame me.”
Everyone started moving towards the valley. Each person made with a pondering expression as theireyes encountered the ruined jinzhi scattered on the ground,. They had heard earlier on that Luo Li had gone to challenge Zuo Mo at the valley, the news was passed furiously through Wu Kong Sword Sect. Thinking about the match that neither of the two had won, all three of them had their own thoughts.
Zuo Mo didn’t have any expression. In fact, he couldn’t make expressions. That zombie face couldn’t hold any expressions.
Entering the West Wind Yard and seeing Zuo Mo return, the grey beaked goose on the roof made a call as though she was giving a greeting. Just having escaped death, Zuo Mo’s mood was very good and he waved his hand in greeting to the female bird.
Gong Sun Qing saw Zuo Mo’s youthful actions and couldn’t help but grin.
Xu Yi Xia only took a glance. Seeing it was only just a normal grey beaked goose, she looked away with a hint of disdain in her eyes. Her steed was a third grade golden fire pupil beast. Extremely intimidating and dominant. In her eyes, a grey beaked goose was for country bumpkins only.
The group of four sat down. Zuo Mo made a pot of tea. The three touched it with their lips before setting it down. Zuo Mo didn’t care. What he had was just normal tea. It was a bit cheap. Normally, even he didn’t drink it.
“It really shocked me that Shidi comprehended sword essence in three months. Shidi is really too mean to not have slipped any hint and make me worry.” Xu Yi said with a smile.
Zuo Mo quickly answered, “It isn’t that this little brother deliberately concealed it. Even this little brother hadn’t thought it would be possible.Afraid of saying it and being embarrassed, this little brother had been practising in the river and had been swept a few hundred miles away by the water. Even the sect leader had to send someone to search.”
The other three people’s expressions instantly became slightly strange. They had already used the incident of Zuo Mo being swept away by the river as a joke. The three had mocked or disdained it. Now that Zuo Mo mentioned it in self-mockery, the three instantly didn’t feel good inside.
Zuo Mo had comprehended sword essence and was walking far in front of them. Previously mocking Zuo Mo, it clearly showed their ignorance and stupidity.
“What sword scripture is Shidi practicing?” Xu Yi Xia asked with a face of innocence.
“Li Water Sword Scripture.” Zuo Mo didn’t deny it. If they wanted to know, they naturally could find out, “It is a third grade five elements sword scripture. Pity that Shibo said that it would be difficult for it to progress more.”
Hearing this Xu Yi Xia’s cunning eyes couldn’t help but reveal delight.
Zuo Mo coincidentally caught it. He couldn’t resist sneering inside. This brat definitely didn’t have a good heart!
“Shidi, don’tbe discouraged.” Gong Sun Qing comforted, “Your talents are so outstanding, Shibo and Sect Leader wouldn’t waste your talents.”
“Shijie is right.” Feeling the concern of the other, Zuo Mo felt goodwill for her and bowed towards Gong Sun Qing. It might have been that she would be marrying soon but she didn’t walk closely with Qin Cheng’s group. It seemed like that she didn’t want to involve herself in the battle between the two sides.
“This time, it is me that is searching for Shidi.” The Eldest Shijie smiled, her tone gentle, “These two have been taken along to keep me company. I heard that Shidi can make a kind of lingdan called Golden Crow Pill which has a probability of making Golden Crow Fire. Is that true?”
“The appraisal says so. In reality, this little brother has not tried.” Zuo Mo said cautiously.
“That’s good.” Gong Sun Qing smiled and took out a jade box, “I want to use this time to exchange with Shidi for one hundred Golden Crow Pills. Shidi, take a look.”
Finishing, her slender fingers pushed the jade box in front of Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo was slightly puzzled as he opened the jade box. The moment he opened the jade box, his pupils suddenly expanded, glee was unable to be disguised in his eyes!
Translator ramblings: Zuo Mo is on vacation but that’s not going to be for long.He’s made a decision about his “career” and really, it was unrealistic for Xin Yan to expect the money-grubbing zombie to abandon his pursuit of wealth in exchange for a promise that he might succeed.
