Chapter 100 - A Mutual Exchange of Visits (1/2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Thank you, Patriarch Yi, for your hospitality. The Yi Family is truly a great aristocratic family. I’ve benefited a lot from this visit.” A beaming Lonemoon saluted Yi Feng with cupped fists.
“Supremacy Lonemoon is too kind,” said Yi Feng returning the salute. “Sect Master Shen and you are the ones who have honored our Yi Family with your visit.” Yi Feng heart warmed towards her as he thought about the contract wyrm he gotten for free. Turning to Shen Ying, he said sincerely, “I won’t forget Sect Master Shen’s help.”
Although the method used terrified him a little, the rewards more than made up for it.
“You’re welcome,” said Shen Ying blithely. “We’ll come again.”
Yi Feng: “…” Come again!
(=)
“Then we’ll take our leave.” Lonemoon nodded in acknowledgement and even turned to smile at Yi Feng’s housekeeper.
But the housekeeper’s expression darkened, as if recalling something unpleasant.
Only then did Lonemoon summon his flying sword and left with Shen Ying.
Yi Feng and his house manager heaved a collective sigh of relief. They finally sent these two off. It was just three days, but they felt that their life span had shortened by ten years.
Huh?
Wait a moment!
“Spirit Master, where are you going?” We’re just sending them off, why are you flying off with them!
——————
“Fellow Daoist, do you have any other matters?” Lonemoon asked Bai Ze. They stopped at the transportation array and Lonemoon turned to glance at this oddball who had been following them. At first Lonemoon thought he was a disciple sent by the Yi Family to send them off but this seemed unlikely given the distance they covered. Moreover, he was unable to detect this man’s cultivation level.
“Furball?” Shen Ying turned her head and asked, “You have other matters to discuss with us?”
Bai Ze looked nonplussed. He seemed to have only just realized that he was outside the boundary of the Yi Family estate. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but after glancing at her for a while, he blushed and turned his back to her.
Shen Ying: “…” Not this move again?
“Who’s he?” Lonemoon nudged her and whispered, “You know him?”
“He’s the furball reared by the Director. He said he has had it for thousands of years.” Shen Ying added as an afterthought, “It was originally a white-furred animal. We even went on the trip to the Mirage Sea together.”
“Spirit Beast?” asked Lonemoon, a little surprised. To be able to manifest, Spirit Beasts had to be at least at the eleventh level. “So why is he following us?”
“How would I know?” said Shen Ying shaking her head. “He has social phobia, doesn’t like to talk. Don’t tell me… he has a thing for seafood too?” She thought of the hoard of seafood in her bag.
“What seafood?”
“Father Niu.” Shen Ying did not answer his question. As if recalling something, she gave him a push and said, “Lend me your storage bag.”
“What for?”
“To store something.”
Lonemoon looked at her questioningly but nevertheless took out a storage bag beside him. After giving it some thought, he dug out a brand new green storage bag and passed it to her, saying,
“Here. Take.”.
Taking the bag from Lonemoon, Shen Ying in turn opened the blue bag that Bai Ze had given her, and fishing out a fish head that was even taller than a man, transferred it to the new storage bag. Whereupon she reached her hand into the blue bag again and fished out…
Shen Ying retrieved sections after sections of dead beast corpses from her bag. All the beasts had been bisected in two and came from a wide variety of species that were more comprehensive than could be found in any spirit beast encyclopedia.
Lonemoon: “…”
He had just taken his eyes off her for one day and look what she had done! Where did she get all these creatures?
(๑ŐдŐ)b
They were supposed to hunt for beasts but it seemed that she had been filling the sea with these creatures instead. Did she think she was Jing Wei 1 ?
Shen Ying kept at it for half an hour before finally stopping.
She passed the bag with half its original contents to Bai Ze and said, “Sorry, I forgot to divide the spoils.”
“…”
When Bai Ze showed no signs of taking the bag, she directly stuffed it into his hands and said, “You worked hard today. Take it! Don’t bother sending me off. Come visit Invincible Sect when you are free. Bye!”
With that, she pulled Father Niu with her into the transportation array.
Bai Ze, who had the bag of seafood forcibly stuffed at him: “…” He had not asked for this?
(⊙_⊙)
“By the way, Shen Ying, what’s this spirit beast called?” asked Lonemoon casually.
“I think he was called Bai… Bai…” Bai something or other. “I can’t remember. Anyway, he was white, had a long horn and looked like a tasty animal.”
“Oh.”
