Chapter 198 : The Hallmaster Wants to Get Married Off 14 (2/2)

“If I had to carry out these kinds of minor actions myself, what’s the point of you raising those group of people for?”

‘If I could beat him up, I’d have already done so, okay?’

“What do my people have anything to do with you?” Bu Jingyun maintained his aloof face, his eyes cold.

“You’re already mine. Of course everything you have is mine too.” Shi Sheng glared at him. “Why’re you suddenly so chatty? Hurry up and call ‘em! What, you wanna die?”

Bu Jingyun, “…”

‘You only know how to scold me! Hmph!’

Bu Jingyun waved his hand and two people wearing the Nine Silences Hall’s uniform jumped down from the thick canopies on the side. “Hallmaster.”

“Shen Yaoguang, let’s be reasonable and talk!” Seeing the two disciples were rapidly closing in on him, Jun Hanlin’s attention was brought back from Bu Jingyun’s looks. “Nothing much to talk about.” Shi Sheng’s lip curled. “I haven’t even settled last time’s score with the assassins, yet you’ve already come out to plot against me again. Jun Hanlin, looks like you’re really tired of living. You two, beat him up! If you live, great. If you die, too bad.”

“Shen— Oof!”

Jun Hanlin grunted as his abdomen was hit. His body curled up like a shrimp from the pain. Without giving him a chance to take a breather, another fist landed on his gut.

Since he got beatings nearly every day, Jun Hanlin was actually rather tough. Shi Sheng was beginning to ponder over whether or not she should just get them to stab him, though she eventually dismissed the idea.

‘I’ll(bbb) let the FL do the tormenting. All I(bbb) have to do is spectate.’

Shi Sheng squatted down in front of the bloodied, swollen-faced Jun Hanlin, her eyes gleaming. “Jun Hanlin, you better sending people to assassinate me, y’hear? You won’t be able to kill me anyways, so why waste energy? Save your resources, it’s not easy to train people.”

“Shen Yaoguang, if you don’t kill me now, there’ll come a day when I’ll make you beg me on your knees!”

‘This damnable woman!’

“Oh? Does that mean you want me to kill you now? Well since it’s your wish, I have to satisfy you!” Shi Sheng gave a proper nod before suddenly standing up and pulling out her sword.

She waved her sword in the air, generating currents of air.

Jun Hanlin glared at Shi Sheng, his teeth clenched. ‘I’ll admit I lost today! I lost because I underestimated her and miscalculated her personality! I’ll still be a good man in twenty years[1]!’

But would the male lead really die that easily?

Using her own first-hand experience, Shi Sheng would tell you: Nope!

Just as her sword was aboutto cut Jun Hanlin in half, a powerful white light burst forth from his body. Shi Sheng was knocked back by the light.

Bu Jingyun subconsciously caught her, but because of his injury and prior mistreatment in a certain someone’s hands, he didn’t have much strength. Thus, both of them fell to the ground.

Shi Sheng pulled Bu Jingyun and positioned them to allow her body to cushion his fall. Bu Jingyun ended up landing on top of her, and their eyes met.

Bu Jingyun was stunned. His face quickly blushed unnaturally, until even his ears were bright red.

However, the next moment caused his face to turn dark.

There was no clichéd kiss or anything of the sort. There was merely Shi Sheng’s muttering through clenched teeth, “The hell did you grow up eating? Damn you’re heavy!”

‘This woman not only thinks I’m old, she thinks I’m heavy too?! Simply…!

Do I look that old?! I’m clearly not old at all! Hmph!’

[1] This is a reference to reincarnation. Not the time reversing type. The type that usually occurs after someone’s died. Usually you don’t get to keep your memories. Anyway, this phrase is used as a motivator like “I ain’t afraid of dying! I’ll just reincarnate and I’ll still be a man in twenty years!”

I don’t really get it since… they could always reincarnate as a girl.
