Chapter 581: A Flower Addict
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
A few days ago in the monastery at Tile Mountain, Ning Que and the Flower Addict had exchanged a few words across the wall . When he returned to the room to help Sangsang change, he handed her an embroidered purse and asked her to tell him with her heart if she had any problems .
Telling him with her heart was a moment of thought and with respect to such a sudden attack, before she could even do anything, she didn't forget to tell him .
The moment she thought, Ning Que knew right away .
Hence Ning Que also thought for a moment .
With a thought, he triggered the embroidered purse that was hidden up in Sangsang's sleeve .
The light in the dark hall was suddenly deformed, especially the s.p.a.ce in front of Sangsang, which was twisted to numerous mirrors that overlapped each other by a powerful talisman power transmitted from the purse .
The jasmine flower petals that had sputtered from the tea landed on the mirrors and the two auras clashed into each other, causing a huge wind in the hall . The dust between the bricks was sc.r.a.ped out and billowed about .
The petals on the mirror quivered their way into it . However, they were only able to pierce through two to three layers before losing their power . They twisted around powerlessly, then were turned into dirt and dispersed .
The Flower Addict, Lu Chenjia who was seated in a corner was incredibly shocked . Her flower-like face showed a bitter pain as she spat out blood all over her s.h.i.+rt with a shriek .
After a moment, the Fu Character aura that swirled around the hall gradually dissipated .
Numerous mirrors that had protected Sangsang at the front also converged and disappeared without a trace . The jasmine flower petals mixed with the tea that had been torn into the finest drops gently landed on her face, which was a little damp .
Ning Que stood up slowly as he looked at Lu Chenjia without any expression on his face .
With this trip to the Lanke Temple, before meeting the Buddhist chariot, he was never worried about his and Sangsang's safety . Just like what Xian Zhilang had once said: In this world, people stronger than him wouldn't dare offend him due to the background of his sect . Those that do not have the experience and dared to offend him couldn't afford to do so .
However, this wasn't an absolutely rational world and there was still madmen like Long Qing and many people who would become crazy for various reasons, like those who had suffered bereavement .
Ning Que was incredibly grateful to Long Qing for giving him an almost fatal blow in the autumn rain at the Red Lotus Temple's front . That allowed him to regain the caution and calmness he had when he was in the Min Mountain . After speaking a few words with Lu Chenjia at the monastery in Wa Mountain, especially after seeing the expression in her eyes, he was wary of her becoming crazy like Long Qing and hence gave the embroidered purse to Sangsang .
There was a Divine Talisman from Master Yan Se in the purse .
”Even though I cannot accept it, I can barely understand it . Because of your fiance's misfortune, you have always wanted to kill me . But this has nothing to do with Sangsang, why do you do this?”
Ning Que looked at Lu Chenjia and asked .
Lu Chenjia raised her arm and wiped away the bloodied water at the corner of her lips . She showed a crazy smile on her pale yet beautiful face and said, ”I am certain that only by killing myself now I can attain salvation and make myself suffer less . Since I want you to be in pain, why should I kill you?”
She stared at Ning Que with hatred and said in a quivering voice, ”You once killed the most important person in my life . Do you know how that feels? It feels like your world is being destroyed in front of your very eyes . The more precious the memories used to be, the more pain you will suffer . You killed Long Qing, which is the same as destroying my world . You have made me a walking corpse . I live in pain every day, struggling on the verge of collapsing . ”
Ning Que replied, ”This pain is something that many have experienced . ”
”No! You do not know! You will never know what kind of pain it is . ”
Lu Chenjia shed tears as she said wretchedly, ”If you have never lost someone before, how could you understand that pain that rips your very being into shreds . So when I know that Sangsang is about to die from her illness, I am really happy . ”
Ning Que looked at her and said, ”When you realized that her illness might be cured by Master Qishan, you could no longer endure it and decided to kill her yourself?”
Lu Chenjia looked at him and said in a daze, ”That is right . I want you to watch your most important person dying before you . I want you to feel such pain . ”
Ning Que replied, ”I am sorry but I will probably never experience the pain you have gone through . Although I am curious . . . since Long Qing is not dead yet, where is your pain coming from?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Chenjia smiled bitterly and said with extreme pain . ”Yes, he has not died, but he has become half-alive . He is like a dog chased by the West-Hill Divine Palace, hiding in the Wilderness . He even betrayed the faith he had believed in for more than half of his life and became a demon . Isn't this even more terrifying than dying? Compared to now, I would rather him be killed by you back then in the Wilderness!”
”In my opinion, no matter how one lives, it is better than dying . ”
Ning Que shook his head and said, ”What I don't know is whether you really like Long Qing or just his position as the Prince of Yan Kingdom; the symbol hidden under the s.h.i.+ny exterior of the beautiful son of G.o.d in the West-Hill . ”
”If he really is the most important person to you, no matter how his position changes or how his stance changes, whether he is glorious or dim, G.o.dly or a monster, a Sage or a demon, he would always be the most important person in your heart . That is, unless you only like him for his s.h.i.+ny exterior . But if that is the only thing you like and it makes you feel so pained, it is still something that cannot be understood . ”
His voice was calm and he didn't mean to ridicule or to be mean but every word hit home .
Lu Chenjia's face turned even paler and she said, ”I didn't expect you to patiently speak this much with me . ”
Ning Que shook his head and said, ”I just want to expose you and make you feel more pain . ”
Such honest and simple words sounded incredibly cold to the people in the hall .
Who would have expected that just as they were discussing the Underworld Invasion, the Flower Addict Lu Chenjia would attempt to murder Sangsang . n.o.body had any idea what to do now . Besides the fact that Sangsang had a valuable position in the West-Hill Divine Palace, Ning Que himself wouldn't ignore the attack, what would he do?
Not everyone in the temple had past dealings with Ning Que and was as familiar with his personality as Cheng Lixue . However, all of them knew how the Academy dealt with people entering the human realm . Thinking back to Mr . Ke, some people's faces changed .
Master Qishan sighed and looked pitifully at Lu Chenjia before saying, ”The world is mostly suffering from love . ”
Master Boshan looked at Ning Que, his lips quivering, preparing to plead for the Flower Addict .
After all, Lu Chenjia was the Princess of Yuelun Kingdom' and Yuelun was the only and most important secular country within the Buddhism Sect . Those from the Buddhism Sect could not watch as she got into trouble .
Ning Que didn't give Master Boshu a chance to plead .
