Chapter 40: Accident

He moved as if he were flying, under the curtain of darkness, a white shadow flashed by. After dinner, He was pulled aside by Wang Wen Shu to tour around the entire Ye Mansion, conveniently, he also took note of the bright places and secret hiding spots and remembered them in his mind, at this time, he was running on the perfect route to avoid being seen.

He lightly jumped, the inertia within his body enabled him to cross a distance of more than ten meters, he landed on another rooftop, like sand falling to the ground, without making any sound. He used his spirit to check the surroundings with his body bent down, afterwards, he went somewhere and leaned down, he gently pulled open a piece of tile, after a short time, white light passed through the small crack, revealing a person that was bent over a desk —— which was Ye Wu Yun.

If the other person were an expert, he would never have chosen to peek* in this way. Because the higher their strength,the keener would their spiritual sense also be. But he had already made sure during the day that this person didn’t practice any method. Because the Ye family were constantly on the move all year round, he apparently didn’t have time to practice anything. (TL Note: Raws say (**) on “peek”, and I just assumed that peek was the word censored there.)

At this moment, he was holding a thick book, he was holding a pen in his right hand and he would write something from time to time. Even though he couldn’t see his face, he assumed that he probably had a serious expression.

Due to Ye Wu Yun’s ability to be trusted, the Ye family’s finances had all been reassuringly placed into his hands, and he had never let the Ye family be disappointed during the past few years, so the Ye family felt even more reassured, they felt so reassured that they even trusted him too much, this isn’t good. Ye Wu Chen secretly thought.

“Thud Thud”, after a knock on the door, a man dressed as an attendant came in with a cup of tea and put it on top of Ye Wu Yun’s table: “Young master, take a break and have a cup of tea.”

“Oh, thank you Xiao Wu, it’s a bit late so I can only have a short chat with you, after this, go rest early ok?”

“No, Young master should be the one to rest early, the young master works without rest every day at the Ye Mansion, even if you don’t love your body, we care a lot about it!”

“hahaha, this is already a habit, if I stop, I’d feel uncomfortable instead. So you may go now.”

“Then…… Xiao Wu will retire.” Knowing that the young master wouldn’t listen to advise, Ye Wu only shook his head and quietly went out afterwards.

The room became quiet again.

Pushing the tile back in place, Ye Wu Chen stood up to leave, he knew that there probably wouldn’t be any harvest tonight. Of course, he also didn’t expect to discover anything, he simply just wanted to try his luck.Because the other side already knew that he had a sword deity’s ring, even if they looked down on him, they also had to consider the risk of provoking the sword deity.

After another leap, he jumped across another roof, and returned along the route he came from as if he were a white ghost.

Not surprisingly, the night visit had been fruitless, but accidents still happen……

After several twists and turns, Ye Wu Chen was already at the top of his own small courtyard, as long as he leaps to Ye Shui Yao’s rooftop again, then he could directly walk back. This was the first time he used the power of “Wu Chen spell” to move in high speed, he felt extremely comfortable, and he even wished that he could continue experiencing that feeling. Therefore he ran to test the limits of his speed, after a heavy step, his body drew a beautiful white arc down towards Ye Shui Yao’s rooftop…… but this jump completely crossed more than 30 meters, and he fell directly towards Ye Shui Yao’s bedroom.

Ye Shui Yao’s bedroom rooftop had a very huge “skylight” that could open and close, this was her special set up, but it’s purpose was unknown. Most of the people in the Ye family knew of the existence of this window —— but Ye Wu Chen was clearly not one of them.
