Chapter 140 Nine-leaf Orchid

“Long Chen!”

Long Chen turned back in surprise to see a maiden looking at him .

“You are…?” He didn’t recognize her, but she had called out his name .

“I’m Qing Yu . We’re both part of sister Wan-er’s faction,” she hastily explained .

“Oh, do you need something?” asked Long Chen .

“I heard that sister Wan-er is fighting against Lei Qianshang . Apparently it’s not far that far from here,” she worriedly said .

“Then I wish them a good fight . Anyways, I’ll go going now . ” Shaking his head, Long Chen prepared to leave .

He definitely didn’t have interest in just watching that . He still needed to spend his time searching for some better treasures . He had no time for that nonsense .

Seeing Long Chen didn’t care about Tang Wan-er, Qing Yu grabbed him and angrily said, “What are you saying?! You’re part of sister Wan-er’s faction, so you have to be loyal and never betray her! By not caring about her safety, that is precisely betraying her! Do you still have the any face? How would you ever face the heroes of the world if-”

“Ok! You’ve given me a dose of you . If you keep talking then I really will be painted into becoming a completely wicked sinner . Fine, I’ll go with you . ” Long Chen hastily surrendered . This girl’s mouth really was too vicious .

“How can you put it that way? What do you mean, you’ve gotten a dose of me? You just hadn’t clearly seen your own mistake . Since sister Wan-er personally invited you, you-,” Qing Yu solemnly, unceasingly scolded him .

“OK! If you keep talking then the fight will be over by the time we get there . You know what, that’ll be good . Let’s not go . ” Long Chen impatiently interrupted her . This girl’s mouth really had no end .

“Oh, that’s right . Then let’s go see how sister Wan-er is . Once this matter is over, then I’ll finish telling you about your problems . As a person, you must be upright and proper . Your cultivation goals must be clear . ” Qing Yu nodded .

“Sister Qing Yu, can I ask you a question?” asked Long Chen .

“Ask away . ”

“Do you have any men chasing after you?” he curiously asked .

She was startled then shook her head . “No, why?”

“Oh, I get it . ” Long Chen nodded .

“What?”

“Nothing . It just makes sense… right, what’s your relations.h.i.+p to Tang wan-er?” suddenly asked Long Chen .

“My grandpa arranged for sister Wan-er to have a close, personal maid . I’ve already followed along the young lady for ten years . I’m in charge of her safety and the various work she needs,” said Qing Yu

Ah, so she was a busybody housemaid . No wonder was always scolding and prattling away .

“You said Tang Wan-er was fighting Lei Qianshang? Doesn’t that Lei gorilla like sister Wan-er? Why would they be fighting?”

“Giving people nicknames like that is a big no-”

“Then I’ll withdraw that nickname . But sister Qing Yu, please answer my other question . ” Long Chen hastily interrupted her scolding again .

“You’re right that Lei Qianshang likes sister Wan-er . But when a man finds himself attracted to a woman, they really try to woo and chase after her .

“Instead they like using martial force to impress and subdue them, making her unwaveringly follow him . That’s the normal way you men like to handle things,” said Qing Yu .

Long Chen rolled his eyes . Did she need to insult his entire gender? He had wanted to refute her including him in her description, but then wouldn’t that be saying he wasn’t a man? He decided to just stay silent .

But her words did cause him to gain a new understanding of the cultivation world .

A man’s attractiveness was directly related to his martial strength . It was just like in the animal kingdom . Only the strong gorillas had the qualification to have more mates .

Although he scoffed at such a system, having entered the cultivation world, he had seen that everything was useless . Martial strength was the only thing anyone could trust in .

Furthermore, the cultivation world’s standards were completely opposite to the secular world’s . They were incredibly barbaric . There were practically no morals or ethics . Strength was everything .

Long Chen sighed sorrowfully . By living in this world, would he also change to become like that?

“Why are they fighting?” he followed up .

“It seems to be that they noticed a treasure at the same time . No one wants to let the other, so they could only use martial strength to resolve this,” explained Qing Yu .

“A treasure?” Long Chen’s eyes brightened . Something that could cause Tang Wan-er and Lei Qianshang to fight without hesitation definitely had to be something good .

“Cough, now that sister Wan-er had fallen into danger, as her subordinate, I must save her even if I must walk through fire and water, sacrificing my life . In order to return sister’s kindness and patronage, I definitely must help sister seize this treasure,” loyally said Long Chen . At the same time, his speed shot up as he rushed even faster .

Qing Yu was startled, but she then gratefully smiled, thinking Long Chen had finally gotten things straight and become a good person .
