Little Beastie said there were other things on the mountain, so Ming Shu decided to walk around by herself.
Poop-picker, poop-picker, itâs here, I saw it here at that time. It ran over below and then disappeared.
Little Beastie jumped up and down on the ground, doing the explanation hoppingly.
Ming Shu looked over to see a normal wood.
Ming Shu continued walking up as she picked fruits along the way.
Little Beastie was faster than Ming Shu, and now it suddenly rolled down from above to hit Ming Shuâs feet.
Poop-picker, your disciple is up there, and he looks like heâs dying.
Ming Shu was startled and swiftly walked up.
Yu Hui was fallen on the ground, beside by the toad with blood all over its body, which was already dead.
Ming Shu supported Yu Hui and touched his pulse. It was beating chaotically, but he should be safe from death.
Is he dead?
Little Beastie continued jumping around Ming Shu.
Iâll be great if he is dead. No one will compete with me!
...
Yu Hui opened his eyes. He saw white bed curtains, and some pear blossoms floated in through the window, falling on his bed. A light fragrance was floating around the room.
He covered his head and sat up.
But a sudden feeling of hollowness struck him as he moved, as if a piece of him had been cut away from his body by someone.
The feeling was very uncomfortable.
The chaotic pictures in his mind gradually connected to each other in order.
He went to look for the evil beast yet he didnât know where Ming Shu had hidden it. But so many immortal army men searched around the mountain and found nothing, so it ought to be safe. He wasnât worried.
It took him some time to find it. But before he had time to take it with him, something suddenly attacked him.
From the time the attack began to when he fainted, only several seconds passed, and he didnât see clearly what attacked him at all.
Squeakâ
âYouâre awake.â Wu Tong came in with a bowl of medicine and looked at him, frowning. âWhat happened, why did you faint?â
âWhatâs this?â
âYour medicine.â Wu Tong placed it before Yu Hui. âDrink it.â
âIâm not sick, no.â Yu Hui refused.
âDonât be ungrateful.â Wu Tongâs little face froze. âMaster made this for you personally.â
Master had never done anything like this before. If he didnât drink, her masterâs kind heart would be wasted.
Yu Hui blinked as he heard this and took the medicine with hesitation.
She made this personally...
Yu Hui held his breath and drank it up in one go. He wiped his mouth and asked, âWhereâs my master?â
âMaster is resting.â Wu Tongâs attitude became even worse. âLast night, Master took you back...â
âWu Tong.â
Wu Tong swallowed the following words. She glared at Yu Hui then left with the empty bowl.
Yu Hui touched his chest, which was feeling warm inside. What was Wu Tong trying to say?
What happened last night?
He lifted the quilt away and got down the bed. The medicine seemed to take effect as he felt less uncomfortable now. He walked out slowly. Pear blossoms flew around outside. Ming Shu was lying under the pear blossoms, and Lord Ye Yue stood beside her, talking to her smilingly.
Yu Hui felt the smile was a little dazzling.
He retreated to the room silently, sitting back into the bed with somewhat suffocating anger.
This body is too young and weak. How is it possible that she will like me.
Annoying...
Yu Hui didnât know how much time passed as he sat there, but he didnât go out until the conversation outside ceased. He walked slowly and tentatively.
Lord Ye Yue was gone. Ming Shu lay in the pear blossoms tree, so he stepped on the soft pear blossoms carpet and walked to her front. âMaster.â
âYo, youâre not dead.â Maybe I can gain some Hatred Points?!
Yu Hui: â...â
Just calm down.
I will not argue with her.
Keep calm! I can win this!
âI...â Yu Hui hid the testiness in the bottom of his eyes. âHow did I return?â
âI took you back in my arms, what, do you think you came back on your own, sleepwalking?â
Yu Hui: â...â Calm down, calm down. The conquest strategy said no matter how mad the mission target was, you couldnât get angry.
âIs it dead?â He could feel the evil beast that had been connected to him was dead. This was also why he felt he had lost a piece of flesh.
âYes.â
Yu Hui didnât feel sorry, after all that thing was not his. But its death affected his body and this made him a little agitated.
Yu Hui looked at her with a deliberately blank look. âWhat attacked me?â
âHow would I know that. Itâs you who were attacked, didnât you see clearly?â She had checked everywhere in the Ninth Mountain yet found nothing strange.
Yu Hui shook his head. âIt happened too quickly.â
Even Little Beastie didnât see clearly, from which you could tell that thing was really very fast. So it was nothing strange that Yu Hui didnât see clearly, either.
âShouldnât we go find that thing?â There was such a thing in the Ninth Mountain, but she didnât seem to care much. What on earth was she thinking?
Ming Shu pinched a pear blossom and said lightly without any hurry, âIf you can find it, youâll be the winner.â
Yu Hui: â...â
Iâm not talking about win or lose!
What will a winner get? Nothing!
I wonât do that.
Ming Shu didnât go to find that thing, but Little Beastie darted back and forth in the mountain all day long. When Yu Hui practiced, he sometimes would see Little Beastie jumping happily in the forest.
He tried to catch it, but was pricked hard each time.
This little beast seemed to be kind to that psychopath only. It would hide if there was a strange person approaching.
Little Beastie also didnât find that thing. It seemed to have disappeared and the Ninth Mountain was very quiet.
âYu Hui.â Ming Shu came to Yu Hui who was sweeping the floor.
âMaster.â What trouble do you want to cause now.
âThis thing looks ugly, and I think it matches you.â Ming Shu threw him a pink jade pendant, with tassels hanging below...
Yu Hui: â...â
Looks ugly and matches me?
Is she saying that Iâm ugly?!
Is it that all the villains are blind?
What the hell! I am not doing this anymore!
...
Long Shaxue was being punished at the punishment platform, and Ming Shu would came to visit her at intervals.
She would set a small table and prepared some desserts, then watched while eating.
Those unimportant little guard immortals at the punishment platform were all scared to the point of trembling.
There must be a deep hatred between the two.
Long Shaxue was inside and could do nothing about it except gathering more hatred.
The matter of the evil beast was not known by a lot of people, but before, when the immortal emperor sent people to search the mountain, many people saw it. Now Long Shaxue was inexplicably taken to the Ninth Mountain, so everyone began to imagine their pains and sorrows.
Most of them tended to believe that it was Master Immortal Yin Zheng who caused trouble for Long Shaxue because of jealousy. But Xie Chuyang just sat on the sidelines and didnât seem to speak up for his own wife.
Rumors went around the immortal world all at once.
They began to predict that Ming Shu was going to be with Xie Chuyang again.
Ming Shu rolled her eyes in her own heart. Screw your jealousy. I just want some Hatred Points.
Long Shaxue had to stay in the punishment platform for two months, meanwhile Ming Shu came to piss her off from time to time. But Long Shaxue became numb after she came too many times, so Ming Shu didnât come anymore then.
The immortal world seemed to become quiet.
According to Lord Ye Yue, the immortal emperor might have suppressed the matter about the evil beast because it was likely to cause some trouble in the immortal world.
Even if the immortal emperor suspected in secret that there were evil beasts on the Ninth Mountain, under the smiling threat of Ming Shu from last time, he wouldnât dare take action rashly.
Later, Xie Chuyang also went to the immortal worldâs border to strengthen the globe of invulnerability, and it could take him several years to return.
Ming Shu sighed. She could only gain Hatred Points from her disciple now.
But the disciple was busy with cultivation and didnât pay attention to Ming Shu.
What a disciple!
Ming Shu rarely taught him, so Yu Hui spent most of his time in the school. Wu Tong said Yu Hui had developed from Peng Laiâs little boss to the schoolâs little boss.
Very promising.
