117 What to Do If People See Through the Scam? (1/2)

When Wen Bao regained his consciousness, he thought that the Age of Chaos had arrived.

Confessing to Yue Xinyao and Li Nana at the same time… Senior Brother, you sure as hell won’t stop until I die! Initially, he thought that he could hide in heaven with that emergency call, but what happened was that, his Senior Brother came and kicked him to hell!

Alas, would he be boiled by Junior Sister Yue, or roasted by Li Nana? Junior Sister Yue was gentle and kind, at most, she would just break ties with him. However, that Qian Hu of Mansion of Light looked like a man-eating, violent woman; moreover, her cultivation was not low. Thus, it was highly likely that she would serve him big punishment, unable to live but also unable to die...

“Idiot, wake up!”

Wang Lu’s voice promptly called Wen Bao’s soul back. “I’ve already put this crisis temporarily under control, but it’s still far from over. Now that the Psychic Jade time limit is rapidly coming, you must stabilize the situation while I’m going over there in full speed; expect me to arrive after a day!”

“After a day? That’s too long, Senior Brother! I can barely hold myself straight in front of that Qian Hu in a quarter of an hour!”

“Really? Then I’m going to arrive a bit later, perhaps, I’ll bring you a wreath.”

Wen Bao was left speechless. “... But, Senior Brother, with the current situation, do you really want to officially appear?”

“Don’t say stupid things, if my identity is exposed, then our endeavor is tantamount to a naught… So, remember, even if other people began to doubt, you could never admit that you and I have any relationship here. Tell them I didn’t come to the Great Ming Country, but rather I went to the Azure Billow Country for a vacation, understand!?”

“What? Azure Billow Country!?”

“Yes, you, the son of the teacher of the state has secretly arranged seventy-two virgins for my pleasure… In any case, I have nothing to do with the Wisdom Sect! Even if someone takes out a flying sword and point it at your d*ck, you can never admit it!”

“What?”

Before Wen Bao could question about the details, Wang Lu’s voice has disappeared, and the Psychic Jade had turned bleak and completely lost its usefulness.

When his consciousness completely recovered, Wen Bao found himself still sitting in the Mansion of Light’s main hall. Li Nana, Yue Xinyao, and Zhu Qin, each of them lost in their own thoughts.

After a moment, Li Nana was the first to break the silence. “Tomorrow, at this time, still at this place, let’s talk more about that cooperation thing. Please carefully prepare the materials, this is not a trivial matter.”

With that, Senior Qian Hu turned around and returned to the back of the hall. To Wen Bao’s great relief, she never once mentioned the topic about his confession.

Thus, the only people remained in the hall were the three Spirit Sword Sect’s disciples. After another long silent, Zhu Qin sighed and was about to speak, however, Yue Xinyao was actually one step ahead of him. “Senior Brother Zhu Qin… I want to speak to Senior Brother Wen Bao alone, can I?”

Zhu Qin felt as if his chest was pressured with a heavy stone, making him unable to breathe.

Regarding Yue Xinyao, this gentle and kind Junior Sister, if he said he wasn’t moved by her, it was undoubtedly a lie… On the Spirit Sword Mountain, there were many female disciples, moreover, their qualities were also high. However, only a few that caught his attention. Of course, to say that his feelings for her were strong might be a bit too much. It was just that, it was hard for him to accept that the little bit of good relationship that they had was abruptly taken over by the dead fatty, as if he had swallowed a plate of raw houseflies.

While he was hesitating, Yue Xinyao urged him again. “Senior Brother Zhu Qin, I’m really sorry…”

Zhu Qin reluctantly smiled and said, “It’s nothing, I’ll go sit at the back. You two can talk here.”

After leaving the hall, this level seven Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator, with solid body-refining stage, and unusually strong body, actually staggered several steps and nearly fell!

——

“Em, now it’s just the two of us, Senior Brother.”

Being gazed at by Yue Xinyao’s gentle and sweet smile, Wen Bao felt as if his Primordial Spirit began to disperse. Although the previous Junior Sister Yue was very good to him, she never showed him this amazing gentleness.

He thought, “Senior Brother, you really are my good leader, my good senior brother! For such a gentle as clear water eyes, even if I have to die right now, I am willing!”

However, the next moment, Yue Xinyao’s follow up words pulled Wen Bao directly from the heaven. “It’s Senior Brother Wang Lu, right?”

“... Huh?”

“The one who talked just now was Senior Brother Wang Lu, right?”

“Hahaha, Junior Sister, you really are…” Wen Bao’s first reaction was to deny. After all, it was as if Wang Lu’s warning still lingered in his ear: Remember, even if other people began to doubt, you could never admit that you and I have any relationship here!

However, Wen Bao had to admit; under Junior Sister Yue’s gaze, it was difficult for him to lie! The only thing that he could do was to remain silent.

Seeing that Wen Bao had turned silent, Yue Xinyao knew that her guess was correct; she couldn’t help but smile. “Senior Brother Wen, just now, the way you spoke was really unlike you at all.”

Wen Bao was disheartened, thinking, “Yeah, how could a mere Wen Bao, even in the awakening type, be compared to even a finger of Senior Brother Wang Lu? He just took over my body and spoke through my mouth to help me from my perilous situation!

Acutely aware of Wen Bao’s mood, Yue Xinyao hurriedly explained, “Senior Brother Wen Bao, I just want to say that you’re not one who could say those assertive statements; compared to Senior Brother Wang Lu, you’re more gentle and simpler… These are not shortcomings, but just characteristics of a person. It’s like the people in the Nine Regions have black hair and black eyes, while in the Western Continent, there are many blond people, no one is better than the other…”

Upon hearing this, Wen Bao couldn’t help but smile; his heart was gently comforted by Junior Sister Yue!

“Since those words are Senior Brother Wang Lu’s… then the Wisdom Sect should be his creation. Well, if it’s him, then it isn’t strange at all. Senior Brother Wang Lu has always been very good at doing this kind of thing. At the Immortal Gathering, although I’m just an Outer Court Disciple, later on, Master explained to us regarding the matter in the Peach Blossom Village and other checkpoints. It is said that only he can unearth the hidden quest in the Peach Blossom Village, he’s that amazing.”

Wen Bao forced out a smile and nodded.

“Of course, you’re also amazing Senior Brother Wen Bao. You’re able to follow Senior Brother Wang Lu all throughout the experiential learning… if it were me, I would’ve long been thrown off the team.” Yue Xinyao shook her head with some dismay. “However, in any case, since the Wisdom Sect is Senior Brother Wang Lu’s own creation, then I can rest assured, those rumors… are probably wrong. Please pass over my words to him, tell him, I believe him. So, there’s no need to investigate anymore, it’s just going to give you guys trouble. In any case, the ninth month of the experiential learning is coming soon, so I’ll be ready to go back to the mountain in several days. At worst, at the Spirit Creek Town, I’ll just spend my time cultivating and consolidating my gain in exploring the ancient tomb.”
