Chapter 28: My Path (2)

“This disciple will never be able to approach Master Ye’s ability, but this disciple is willing —”

“Don’t, don’t, don’t.”

The moment Ye Yu heard the beginning of the sentence, she could guess what he was about to say, stopping him before he could.

“Don’t say you’re willing. I know what you’re willing to do. Had I been able to teach you ‘my ability,’ the day when you gave me the card, I would’ve taught you it.”

“…”

When Li De heard this, one could easily see the disappointment in his eyes. But even more, it was as if he knew that would’ve happened.

In a short while, he calmed down and said, “Even if you can’t teach me your ability, since this disciple has looked to Master Ye as a master, I am willing to stay by your side.”

Ye Yu observed Li De’s expression, but seeing that the other party wasn’t putting up an act, she hurriedly refused.

“No, no. I observed that the businessman, Li Zhun, would have a lot of offspring in the future. As my disciple, quickly go. That way, the next time he asks for a fortune-telling, it can be this master’s turn!”

Li De was speechless.

He had lived for a century, but he was still unable to tell if she was joking or being real.

But no matter whether it was a joke or truth, Ye Yu didn’t want to allow him to stay; This, Li De was able to understand at the very least.

He sighed and said, “Since Master Ye is persistent, this disciple won’t force himself to stay. But ever since this disciple met Master Ye, I have had a question in my mind.”

“…”

Hearing how Li De stopped for a second, Ye Yu blinked her eyes.

After 2 seconds, she slowly let out a breath. Since he was still her cheap disciple, she patiently kept a smile on and allowed him out of the situation, asking, “What’s your question?”

Li De was conflicted for a while before he asked in doubt, “Although this disciple doesn’t know how Master Ye had avoided the punishment of Heaven and got information about one’s destiny, the head of the immortal world, Tianji Pavilion, had said that fortune-telling was already going against the Heaven’s wishes. If one wasn’t cautious enough, they could hurt themselves. But Master Ye, you don’t even care about this…”

Ye Yu waved her hands and motioned for Li De to stop.

She looked at the sky and it was sunny and bright.

Then, she looked down and smiled, saying, “This natural law is your natural law.”

Speaking of that, she turned around and walked down, her voice lingered in the mountain.

“But my natural law is outside this world.”

“…”

Halfway down the mountain, there was a figure who stood there stunned and unmoved.

After a long time, the figure raised his clasping hands towards the empty mountain road.

Right now, Ye Yu who had been maintaining a polite smile suddenly darkened her face.

She looked up at the sky and then slowly rolled her eyes.

“If there was really a natural law, can you let me know…what exactly did I do wrong? Why am I here being a fortune-teller for you guys?!”

Once Ye Yu went back home, she bumped into Aunt Wang who was in the yard.

The moment she saw Ye Yu, she rushed over and said, “Lady Ye Yu, how come I haven’t seen the little black puppy that you brought back?”

Ye Yu’s mouth twitched, but she maintained a slight smile on the surface. “He’s gotten fat and has no face to come out. He’s hiding in my room right now.”

Aunt Wang was stunned. “…become very fat?”

Ye Yu nodded seriously and said, “Very very fat.”

“Wu, wu…”

In the room Ye Yu was living in, they heard a few unpleasant whimpers.

Hearing the rough voice, Aunt Wang sighed and said, “It seems like he’s gotten quite fat…”

Ye Yu didn’t say anything. After Aunt Wang left, she walked to her room and opened the door, closing the door quickly after getting in.

Then, Ye Yu’s gaze swept across the entire room, unable to find the huge animal.

She was stunned. “Where’s the person…no, the dog?”

“…wu, wu.”

She heard an unwilling and humiliated response from her bed.

“…”

Ye Yu was stunned and then her face darkened.

“During Spring, dogs usually shed their fur. 500 silvers, don’t get on my bed!!”
