Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“My friends, are you interested in listening to my song?”
The young man and woman with the Bamboo Hats did not show their faces. When they were suddenly extended this invitation, they could not help but stop and size up the man in the pavilion, along with their surroundings.
The pavilion was built by the side of the mountain track, and there was a patch of green grass nearby. Dozens of feet behind it was lush, green mountain, and the scenery was incredibly beautiful.
The man was dressed in brocade robes, and he looked incredibly handsome. There was a gentle air about him, and it was difficult for anyone to feel any sort of aversion toward him. Besides, judging by his movements, he should have a very clear knowledge of music, and he was not like Wind Chimes, who was an amateur who knew fewer than twenty pieces.
The young man and woman said nothing. The young woman only stopped for a while before she turned her face around, as if she was waiting for the man who held her hand to make the decision.
The young man also stopped only for a moment before he answered clearly, “We’re complete strangers, and it’s better if you don’t extend an invitation without careful consideration.”
His voice was clear and calm. Even though he refused the request from the person in the pavilion, he appeared to be incredibly composed and natural in his movements. Although he intentionally kept a distance from the man in the pavilion, he was not rude in it.
“That’s a pity…” The man in the pavilion chuckled.
Notes continued singing from between his fingers, and he continued speaking, “You’re the strongest in the Chinese server, and you have the ability to make Class One Hall one hundred thousand-man army return in failure repeatedly. You lit up the flames of war in the north around Class One Hall, and you are afraid of a stranger’s sudden invitation?”
When he said this, he stopped talking and did not continue.
The young man was not angered at all. At the same time he slowly took off his Bamboo Bat, he said, “Allow me to make two things clear. One, I have never considered myself to be the strongest in the Chinese server. Two, I am not worried about a stranger suddenly extending an invitation to me, it’s just that someone decided to choose a spot that spoils the scenery.”
Once he took off his Bamboo Hat, the young man’s real face was revealed before the man in the pavilion. He was, indeed, Happy.
“Oh?” When the man in the pavilion heard this, he resolutely filtered the first point Happy made. His gaze landed on Happy and the girl’s hands clasped together, and he could not help but smile wanly, “Are you blaming me for choosing the wrong time and spoiling your mood? I am truly sorry about that.
“But right now, Class One Hall is in a terrible plight, and yet, you are here leisurely bringing along someone while you wander about the mountains. Isn’t it a little unreasonable?”
When he said his last phrase, he was already giggling.
“You’re wrong again.”
“Oh?” The man in the pavilion had his expression freeze.
Happy shook his head and chuckled. “It’s still two points this time. One, I rejected your offer not because of this. If I were somewhere else and someone offered to play me free music to regulate the atmosphere, I would more than welcome the offer, but I said that you were obtrusive because the location you chose is not right.”
The man in the pavilion did not speak, but his smile did not fade away. He continued listening to Happy’s words.
“Playing a piece is indeed an elegant and leisurely entertainment. Unfortunately, Shaolin Temple itself is already a peaceful and tranquil place. It is holy and secluded. Your piece not only disturbed my mood, the notes you play are also slightly piercing to the ears. It’s a little superfluous, and I suspect you are trying to spoil something beautiful.”
The man in the pavilion was rendered speechless. He did not expect that his actions will actually make Happy evaluate him this way. But what Happy said was indeed reasonable. After he overcame his shock, he got up and put away his seven-stringed zither.
“It seems that I have been rash. Thank you for giving me this reminder, Brother Happy.”
Happy continued speaking without his smile fading away, “Two, I don’t have the mood to bring about a beauty to wander around the mountains in Shaolin Temple this time. You should know that, Brother Wei. During the war at the plains, I have spilled too much blood, and I came to Shaolin Temple this time to ask Master Kong Xiang to help those tens of thousands of Mongolian soldiers and the Class One Hall members’ souls be released from purgatory. Of course, I am also here with the intention to host some guests at Shaolin Temple.”
When he was exposed to be “Brother Wei”, the man in the pavilion had his eyebrows twitch, and when he heard the last part of Happy’s sentence, he could not help but have his expression turn a little strange.
“I see, so you know who I am, but I wonder, who are the guests that you intend to host…?”
Happy was full of smiles, but he did not immediately answer his question. “I wouldn’t actually say that they are honored guests. Perhaps they are actually guests with ill intentions.”
As he spoke, he held the young man by his side and casually walked into the pavilion.
Wei Zhentian, the man in the pavilion, originally had a face full of wariness, but he could not help but put on an expression full of admiration.
“You dare come inside even though you know of my identity? I am full of respect for you know, and I take back my words.”
Wei Zhentian was the real sect master of the strongest sect in America—Dragon Sect. Based on the information Silver Wolf provided, Wei Zhentian was a Chinese American, and his family had already created a rather illustrious business in America. Not only did they have dozens of martial art schools, they were also involved in multiple businesses, and they can be said to have both brawns and brains.
Wandering Know-it-all had long since dug out all of Wei Zhentian’s past as well.
Wei Zhentian was in Life and Death Realm, and his qi was at 570 points. If no accidents happened, in at most three months, he will enter Moksha Realm.
The martial arts Wei Zhentian practiced was very normal. He created a technique on his own called Wandering Universal Eight Trigrams Souls Palm, and it contained the shadows of Universal Eight Trigrams and Wandering Souls Body Movement. He had also perfected his use of his qi, and he was the only one on Great People Rank who relied on the martial arts passed down from his ancestors as well as normal martial arts to enter the ranks of the Great People Rank!
Silver Wolf’s evaluation toward this person was very high, and it was the same for Wandering Know-it-all.
And since Happy understood all this, he naturally knew why Wei Zhentian said those words.
He did indeed have the right to be arrogant.
He was in the International Great People Rank and was also ranked among the top one hundred players on the International Influential Rank of the Strong.
Besides, he managed to predict that Happy will come to Mount Song, and he came here beforehand to wait for him.
