Chapter 83 - Zhige’s Whereabouts (2/2)
“He actually dared to come back?” Du Qiying immediately sneered, “Isn’t his skin a little too thick? Doesn’t he feel ashamed at all?”
“He’s far from feeling ashamed, and had even come prepared.” Tong Le said, “Today he had actually taken out a top-grade magic tool that crushed me ruthlessly hands down. And he even made me offend Chief Steward He on purpose!”
“What? A top-grade magic tool?!” Du Qiying almost jumped up, then immediately asked, “How could he still have that kind of item? Didn’t they say that the good stuff his short-lived Dad left him have mostly been squandered away?”
Tong Le shook his head, then laughed bitterly, “I don’t know what’s going on either, and I don’t know if the top-grade magic tools in his hands are limited to those few that he had shown. Also, he came all the way to Profound city that’s tens of thousands miles away to sell it, I really don’t know what he’s thinking.”
What can he be thinking about?
What else can he be thinking about!?
“He, others may not understand Lin Xuanzhi, but I understand him very well.” A thick sense of hatred spewed out from his eyes, “He’s just someone who likes to be in the limelight. He’s probably afraid that if he’s gone for so long, those who had flattered him in the past would forget about him.” Tong Le thought about it for a bit, then nodded and said, “He really is in the limelight now. I think everyone in Profound city already knows that he’s returned, and that he had even brought a top-grade magic tool along with him.”
Du Qiying suddenly lost all interest in teasing Tong Le. He tried to suppress his rage as he asked, “Aside from Lin Xuanzhi, who else came with him?”
Tong Le said, “Just some ugly idiot who doesn’t look like a cultivator, he’s probably a personal attendant that Lin Xuanzhi bought from somewhere.”
“Just those two?”
“Just them.”

Du Qiying narrowed his eyes, then said maliciously, “You don’t want to walk a path paved in Heaven for you, but decided to throw yourself into a hell that didn’t even have its doors open. So what if you’re in the limelight now? I was kind enough to spare his life last time, but this time, he’s not going to be so lucky again.”
Tong Le smiled and said, “After Shixiong kills him, I’ll just pick two of the magic tools he carries around with him.”
“You’ll get your share.” Du Qiying smiled as he lightly scratched Tong Le’s nose, then began to figure out how he should deal with Lin Xuanzhi.
Yuan Tianwen brought Han Yuran out of Su Mo’s room.
The cool breeze at night felt very comfortable as it blew on their faces.
Yet Han Yuran didn’t look too good. He was hanging his head and just one look at him and you could tell that he was in a bad mood.
Han Yuran said, “Tianwen Ge, Daddy doesn’t appear to like me very much.”

Yuan Tianwen held his hand and comforted him by using his finger to rub the back of his hand. He said, “Daddy shows that cold face of his to anyone he’s not familiar with, but in reality, he should be quite satisfied with you.”
“Really?” Han Yuran raised his head and looked hopefully at Yuan Tianwen.
Yuan Tianwen nodded his head, then revealed a slight smile and said, “Of course it’s true. Hasn’t Daddy already given you that Sound Transmission spiritual pigeon of his to you as a gift for your first meeting with him?”
Sound Transmission spiritual pigeons fly very fast, and they are very small and nimble. They are rarely noticed by others when they are flying, and are thus good tools for transmitting information.
It wasn’t easy to raise a Sound Transmission spiritual pigeon, because this kind of spiritual pigeon can only recognise the roads it had travelled and the sceneries it had seen.
And this spiritual pigeon had accompanied Su Mo during his travels from the south to the north when he was young, and can be considered a witness of Su Mo’s journeys. In Su Mo’s words, this spiritual pigeon can reach any corner within the Five Continents.
However, when Su Mo gave this spiritual pigeon to Han Yuran as their first meeting gift, he had not mentioned any of this.

Han Yuran touched the white pigeon on his shoulder and revealed a joyous yet shy smile on his face.
Even though he had not seen Yuan Tianwen’s father tonight, he had heard that Su Mo was the one in charge of the Yuan family right now.
And he had meant what he said; his meeting with Su Mo this time went quite smoothly. Su Mo wasn’t as difficult to deal with as he had imagined. After asking him a few simple questions, he didn’t try to make things difficult for him at all.
Looks like Su Mo indeed dotes on Yuan Tianwen very much. Even though the Han family is but a small family, Su Mo didn’t mind it at all.
Also, Su Mo was truly generous. The difference between him and the Lin Xuanzhi who only knew how to pretend to be someone he wasn’t was akin to the difference between the heavens and the earth.
“Yuran, since we’ve met both of our parents, and your father and my family both think that our fate was bestowed upon us by the heavens, then why not we choose a day to hold our Dao companion ceremony and get married.” Yuan Tianwen’s eyes were burning brightly as he looked at Han Yuran. Strong desire could be seen burning in his eyes.
Han Yuran was stunned for a moment, then he got extremely nervous.
If he could drag it out a bit longer, he would, but…after he calmed himself down, Han Yuran nodded and said, “I had been dragging this out because I hadn’t settled my private matters before. But now, since Tianwen Ge mentioned it, I won’t refuse you any longer.”
Yuan Tianwen’s eyes brightened and he couldn’t help but grab Han Yuran’s hand as he said, “Are you serious? So you agree to marry me? And you won’t change your mind?”
Han Yuran’s eyes were filled with love as he smiled sweetly and said, “Of course I’m willing. But, I don’t know if you’ll still treat me this well after we’re married.”
Yuan Tianwen immediately swore solemnly to the heavens, “I, Yuan Tianwen, swear to never abandon my Dao companion in this lifetime. I will stick together with him in life and in death, and would never bully or let him down a tiny bit. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and my fate with cultivation in this life will end!”

T/N: And now we know where LXZ’s sword went~ also, Han Yuran, no one appears to like you very much. Fortunately YTW made the oath to his Dao companion and not to you ＼(￣▽￣)／
Huehue I found this short excerpt that I thought was really pretty and wanted to share it~ it’s from a novel called 遇蛇:

He’s a demon; he doesn’t need the soft beds and cotton mattresses humans use.
He has no constraints: even if he lies by the road, he can fall asleep; even if he guards a withered branch, he can cultivate.
The world was vast and boundless — nothing could be easier for him than finding a place to live.
But a hundred years ago, he had not known Shen Qingxuan, so he could loiter about the world;
and a hundred years later, after Shen Qingxuan was buried,
he could only drift from place to place, like a vagabond.
