Chapter 85: My Family’s Fatty Couldn’t Possibly Be Ridiculed

“w.a.n.g Lu, are you heartbroken?”
“What?”
The Lady Boss propped up her upper body from leaning over the counter; her face was filled with the enthusiasm of someone who was fond of juicy gossip. “After you descended the mountain, you met a beautiful mortal world’s woman. You fell head over heel towards her, however, Immortal Path is from different than Mortal Path; you can’t give her the happiness that she wants, so you reluctantly parted with her. However, in your heart, you still couldn’t give her up… am I right?”
“Are you currently in heat? How could you come up with this outrageous story?” w.a.n.g Lu snappily scolded. “But, there’s actually some truth in that. This time, after I descended the mountain, I indeed encountered a problem. Therefore, I came here looking for you, to see if I can mobilize several people that could help me.”
“Problem?” Little Ling’Er was even more surprised. “You actually encountered a problem? That problem is definitely big; come on, quickly tell me about it!”
w.a.n.g Lu slapped the counter. “Bring the wine!”
“…”
Borrowing the strength from the liquor, w.a.n.g Lu, full of cursing and scolding, recounted his bitter experience in the w.a.n.g Family Village one by one.
The response to that was...
“Hahahaha! You actually let a bunch of country b.u.mpkins abuse you!? Did I hear that right!?”
Wtf! How could this woman be so “gentle and considerate”!?
However, w.a.n.g Lu really couldn’t refute her, because… rather than losing to Seven Stars Sect, that trash level sect, it could be said that he actually lost to villagers of w.a.n.g Family Village, that group of simple-minded people. If only they had used their mind a bit more, they wouldn’t have dragged w.a.n.g Lu down so badly...
It was truly annoying.
With w.a.n.g Lu’s temper, how could he exercise forbearance? Although he had threatened to kill whoever touched his parents before he left—which scared the c.r.a.p out of those simple-minded villagers—that was actually the result of him trying very hard to suppress his urge.
It was not that he was violent and bloodthirsty, but rather he excelled at using the simplest method to solve the problem. In any other places, to deal with swindlers, he would simply raise his sword to kill them and be done with it. It was just that, in his home village, his hands and feet were tied!
This made his heart uncomfortable—extremely uncomfortable! What a pity it was his home village, so he had to endure it all!
“So yeah, now the compromise approach is to catch the sect leader of the Seven Stars Sect and bring him to the w.a.n.g Family Village to confess everything. When the culprit has pleaded his guil, those villagers will have nothing to say anymore!”
While snacking fried fava bean, Lady Boss wrinkled her brows. “I don’t know much about this cult problem, but overall, I feel like your plan is somewhat unrealistic.”
“d.a.m.n! You, a daily-turnover-of-over-ten-thousand third-rate boss, how could you have the qualification to evaluate my plan?”
The Lady Boss exploded with rage. “How could you look down on me like that! Fine! Don’t come here and ask me to help you then! A bitter child with the face that n.o.body wants, comes to me to seek comfort, yet he wants to give me a long face?”
w.a.n.g Lu slapped the table. “Who wants to come here to seek comfort? Don’t look at me like I have a lot of sperm… oh wrong! Don’t shower affection on the uninterested party [1], okay!?
In the midst of their quarrel, a person came through the door. “Sister Ling, Sister Ling, I’ve already prepared the thing that you want, it’s … hey, Senior Brother w.a.n.g Lu, you’re here?”
w.a.n.g Lu turned around. “Wen Bao? Why are you here?”
The one who came was Wen Bao. He was standing at the door holding a live pig; he had a slightly embarra.s.sed expression.
“Don’t block the door, come in.”
After the Lady Boss had called Wen Bao inside the room to put the pig down, the reason why he was still here became clear.
It was actually because, at the beginning of the experiential learning, other disciples had selected their respective target location, yet only Wen Bao delayed his decision.
Because any place seemed too difficult for him.
Wen Bao’s cultivation path was different than the ordinary Inner Court disciples. He walked on a relatively extreme path somewhat similar to w.a.n.g Lu, only the opposite; he was very adept at attacking. Before descending the mountain, Wen Bao’s Black Iron Sword Art has reached its max level—a genuine Immortal Cultivation World’s sword art that could destroy a mountain. At the same time, his Qi Cultivating Stage has also reached the peak eighth level. Thus, his attack output power was so terrifying that even the high-level Qi Cultivating Stage senior disciples were amazed by it.
However, in anything else, he was useless, and it just so happened that this time’s experiential learning would measure the disciple's comprehensive ability. Wen Bao earnestly used his brain to a.s.sess each suggested location and thought that even the simplest one possessed a considerable risk to him.
Therefore, Wen Bao simply shrank away. Because he couldn’t go up the mountain, he temporarily stayed at the Spirit Creek Town under the euphemism for waiting for the call from his teammate—this experiential learning allowed the disciples to form a team, and the final report could also be co-written. However, a team cold only have a maximum of two members. Multiple teams solving the same problem were also allowed, but their point on the final report would inevitably be deducted.
Wen Bao used his time to work for the Lady Boss while waiting for someone who wanted to team up with him. In the words of the Lady Boss, he would wait until he dies, but in the end… he really had to wait!
“Senior Brother w.a.n.g Lu, when you went down the mountain, why didn’t you call me?”
The fatty's face and tone of voice were filled with grievances. In the past, when they rushed together to the Azure Dragon Gorge, both of them had developed a tacit understanding toward each other. This time’s experiential learning, he thought that their combined attack could continue its splendor. However, w.a.n.g Lu left on his own! Making him feel dejected.
“However, why did you come back?”
w.a.n.g Lu thought that he might as well told him the truth. Thus, he began to recount the story once again. After hearing the full story, Wen Bao’s face had turned red with anger. “That Seven Stars Sect is too despicable, unexpectedly, they bullied Senior Brother’s home village! This is truly bearing the unbearable!”
The Lady Boss raised her brows. “Is it? I think those villagers are the detestable bunch. How could they be so stupid? They would rather believe the outsiders than their own people, w.a.n.g Lu. In any case, he has been their folk for more than ten years, yet they rashly decided that he is the devil.”
w.a.n.g Lu grunted, thinking, “You think?”
Compared to those crooks of Seven Stars Sect, it was actually those folks at the w.a.n.g Family Village that made him so irritated.
They were obviously good people, yet after just more than two years of separation, they have become so ignorant...
This time, Wen Bao calmly explained as if it was a matter of course. “They’re just villagers, so being stupid is a normal thing. If they aren’t common people, the Seven Stars Sect won’t be able to deceive them! The more stupid they are, the better!”
“…”
w.a.n.g Lu and Lady Boss fell into silence; they were deeply shocked by Wen Bao’s “understatement of the year” remark.
