ch 116 - Lots of Drama; Beautiful Scholar 9 (2/2)
“Oh, don’t say that, mistress. Let’s go see whether the Cheng’s really have a mystical spring, and whether they really have beast tamers. If they don’t we’ll reveal the truth to the world and call them liars!”
The little book servant said with an extreme sense of righteousness.
Miss Scholar casted her a glance and nonchalantly said, “How do you know they are fakes? What if it’s true?”
“Oh, mistress. They can fool the others, naturally you won’t believe in such nonsense made up by the commoners. Mystical spring? I think they were all made up by ignorant people!”
“Don’t look down on others!” Miss Scholar picked up her tea cup and took a sip. She repeated, “There’s no need to say that about others just because you want to go check it out. I have told you many times in the past, don’t make snap judgements. There are many occasions that when even when witnessed with your own eyes you won’t be able to tell the truth, let long something like this!”
“Mistress, what do you think? You want to go?” Having no other comeback to her mistress’s speech, the book servant just skip over the Cheng’s topic altogether and asked her directly to go.
Mistress scholar thought for a bit and said slowly, “Since we are out already, might as well wander around some.”
“I knew you’d say yes, Mistress! This is awesome! I want to see what kind of mystical beasts the Cheng’s have. If I don’t like them, I’ll kill them all!”
“Any mischievous behavior from you and I won’t take you anywhere ever again!”
“I’m sorry, Mistress, I’m sorry!”
Nobody was aware of the conversation that took place inside the guest room, let along the Cheng’s in Willow.
On the other hand, the associate dean of School of Divine Condor have also arrived in the town of Daling. While they have learned about and was shocked by the news during their travel, they were nonetheless just a few days out and had no other choices but to continue on to their destination.
