Chapter 139 – Beiming Youyu’s Weak Point

A tiny figure furtively arrived next to Xue Qilin who is sleeping .

“As expected, she’s still asleep . ”

The figure crouching on the ground extended a paw and pushed Xue Qilin .

Consequently, Xue Qilin moaned “the dango [1]... is delicious...” . It seems like she is having a dream .

Then she adjusted her sleeping position and proceeded to make embarrassing snoring sounds .

“Get up! You lazy ass!”

The figure shouted while pushing Xue Qilin .

The lass frowned, but that is all . There are no signs of her waking up .

“What, you really won’t get up...”

The tiny figure exhaled a long breath .

Then it uttered “fine” and took a few steps back .

After a short run, it took off the ground, made several front flips in the air, and fell towards Xue Qilin’s stomach .

“Uwahh!”

Following the sudden impact to her stomach, Xue Qilin sat up reflexively and screamed .

“Are you finally up?”

An energetic voice came from her stomach . Xue Qilin discovered that the voice belongs to Phecda .

“Little Phecda, what are you doing! That hurt . ”

Xue Qilin roared and glared at Phecda, who is maintaining the black cat form .

“What... Qiqi asked me to wake you up! It’s your own fault for not getting up!”

Phecda pouted her cat mouth and jumped to the ground, discontented .

“Has it already started?”

Rubbing her drowsy eyes, Xue Qilin looked out from between the already rolled up curtains of the tent’s entrance, and then showed a surprised expression .

“This early?”

The outside is dark suffused with gray . It should be almost 5 o’clock in the morning . However, this is earlier than Xue Qilin expected .

“Early? Hurry up and get up! The tent will soon be dismantled and taken away!”

Qi Qiqi walked into the tent while criticizing Xue Qilin .

Looking at the radiant Qi Qiqi, Xue Qilin got up unhurriedly and stretched herself while yawning .

“Is everything packed up?”

The lass wiped away the tears that came to the corners of her eye due to yawning . At the same time, Phecda jumped on her shoulder, grabbed her hair, and climbed to the top of the lass’s head – her exclusive resting place .

“It’s all done . Only your tent is left . ” Qi Qiqi continued with her hands on her hips, “Now that you understand it, get out . ”

“Oh, yeah...”

Xue Qilin quickly glanced at the camp and found that all the things packed last night to facilitate the departure this morning have disappeared, leaving only an empty camp and the sleepy her .

“Yun’er and them have readied everything while you were sleeping . ”

Phecda lying on her head uttered .

“Really...”

Xue Qilin, who has no awareness of an elder, dragged out the word and walked to the exit of the tent .

Following this Young Ancestor with a lazy expression and disheveled hair, Qi Qiqi humphed dissatisfiedly, and then shouted “catch” and threw an already prepared face towel to Xue Qilin .

“Make yourself presentable, we’re about to set off . ”

After catching the face towel, Qilin made an “oh” sound, and then left the room to look for clean water to freshen up .

However, Xue Qilin didn’t see any clean water when she searched the camp .

Although Mirror Moon Lake is right next door, but as someone who experienced modern education, she feels that the lake water isn’t clean enough . On the other hand, she doesn’t want to disturb the busy disciples .

As a result, she had to go to a remote location with a wooden basin .

While saying “what kind of place is this, there isn’t even a drop of water...”, Xue Qilin used magic to gather water and fill the basin .

When the basin was half full, Xue Qilin suddenly froze .

“Good morning . ”

A greeting came from above .

At the same time, a pair of small black luohan shoes [2] broke into her field of vision .

To be able to make her hair stand on end, Xue Qilin knows who it is without thinking .

“You don’t have to be so tense . I just happened to pass by, and don’t mean to warm up . ”

Oh, is that so? Xue Qilin asked without lifting her head, “What brings you here, Miss Asura’er?”

“I just so happened to meet you during a stroll . ”

“Oh, really?”

Xue Qilin doesn’t believe Jia Lan’s excuse .

“It amazes me no matter how many times I see it . Is this the so-called unorthodox arts?”

Jia Lan pointed to Xue Qilin’s fingertip that is still releasing water .

“I heard that One Dao Church’s people employ this kind of trick . But I didn’t expect Merak Temple, which is solely preoccupied with swordsmanship, to have similar techniques . ”

Of course you didn’t expect it, since this is not a technique of Merak Temple – Xue Qilin didn’t voice this sentence, but rather sealed it in her heart . She isn’t stupid enough to say anything that would cause people to doubt her origins .

“So? Miss Asura’er, aren’t you going to ask me to teach you a trick again?” Xue Qilin emphasized in a sarcastic tone, “To teach you hat what you call at ‘trick’ . ”

“You are really disagreeable . ”

Jia Lan giggled twice .

“However, is it really okay for you to talk to me like this?”

“Why? Are you going to attack me if there’s a word out of line?”

Xue Qilin glanced at Jia Lan unhappily .

That being said, if it weren’t for the fact that she doesn’t feel any killing intent from the other party, Xue Qilin might have already struck first to gain the upper hand . However, seizing the initiative from a Grandmaster’s hands won’t bring much advantage to her . After reaching the “Grandmaster Realm”, only pure power has meaning .

“You’re really something...” She gasped strangely, “Ah, I want to take you back to the Western Regions . ”

Her tone is that of someone talking about a dream .

Although Xue Qilin can’t see it, but Jia Lan’s face should have an unnaturally flush again .

Facing down, Xue Qilin submerged her face towel into the water in the basin, and the water overflowed and poured onto the weeds on the ground .

After wringing the face towel, she wiped her face while saying in a muffled voice, “Even if you’re going to severe my hands and feet, I’ll still have to politely decline . ”

“Well, that’s what I’d like to do . ”

This person really can say creepy things as if it was nothing . Xue Qilin is speechless .

Seeing Xue Qilin’s reaction, Jia Lan looking happy issued a bright laughter .

The next moment, she sighed suddenly, distressed .

“Things don’t always work out as you wish . The gaze of that smelly fox ‘Moonlight Omnia’ is still sticking to me . ”

It seems that Beiming Youyu is nearby . However, Xue Qilin hasn’t detected her aura . She must have masked it somehow .

“Really, that smelly fox surnamed Beiming is really cunning . She’s exploiting her advantage of being proficient at long-range attacks and hides in the dark . ”

It seems that Jia Lan, who is a Grandmaster, only feels that Beiming Youyu is nearby . But she has no way to accurately locate the other party .

“After all, our Grandmaster is of the qi school . ”

After wringing the face towel, Xue Qilin replied casually .

People of the qi school are expert in external release and control of true qi . So it is a matter of course for Beiming Youyu to be proficient at masking her aura and attacking long-range .

On the other hand, in Jia Lan’s case, Xue Qilin has a guess – “the other party should be of the sword school” . In fact, during the last fight, Jia Lan showed amazing speed and strength, which are characteristic of someone enhancing their physique via true qi .

If you have to differentiate the sword school and the qi school, then it’s probably the case that the former mostly applies true qi inside the body, while the latter is the opposite, and mostly applies true qi outside the body .

“It’s so annoying . ” Jia Lan pursed her lips sullenly .

“That’s really a shame, you can’t act willfully anymore . ”

Somehow Xue Qilin suddenly felt that Jia Lan is a willful and rash little sister, while Beiming Youyu is the big sister, who is the only person capable of reining her in .

Trying her best not to laugh, Xue Qilin’s face contorted .

“What’s with that expression of your’s? It’s really ugly . ”

Xue Qilin’s complexion turned sluggish, and she quickly rubbed her face .

“Anyhow, since you haven’t shaved your head and are a girl, why are you mixed in with a bunch of men in Vajrayana?”

“I am indeed not a person of Vajrayana . ”

Jia Lan suddenly uttered something inexplicable .

What did she say? She is not a person of Vajrayana? Xue Qilin thought she had heard it wrong, but then Jia Lan immediately added a sentence, “I am an adopted daughter of the current School Master of Vajrayana . ”

So that’s what it is... It cannot be a biological daughter, because the people of Buddhism can’t get married . So it can only be an adopted daughter .

Is she really an adopted daughter? Xue Qilin couldn’t help but be suspicious .

Then again, how did the School Master of Vajrayana raise this daughter of his? How did he raise such a pervert?

“It’s really boring, shall we play something?”

“Hard pass . Why don’t you go find Beiming Youyu to play with?”

She thought that Jia Lan would sigh and say “why do things never work out as you wish” . But...

“Hey, aren’t you mistaken about something?”

Jia Lan restrained the emotions on her face .

The water in the the basin is reflecting a pair of red eyes without any ripples .

“If I really find Beiming Youyu, do you think she’ll fight?”

What does she mean? Xue Qilin finally raised her head and looked at Jia Lan .

As a result, Asura’er exhaled a slender breath, greatly disappointed .

“Look, you really are mistaken . That fox wouldn’t fight, but instead turn around and escape . ”

“How come?”

Jia Lan tilted her head innocently, and then her cherry lips brimming with smiles weaved words with profound meaning .

“Because she cares about too many things, and thus is more afraid of death than I am . ”

She narrowed her eyes a little as she said this .

Then, disregarding Xue Qilin, who is pondering her words with a dull expression, Jia Lan lifted one leg and turned around by shifting her center of gravity .

“It’s really boring, I hate boring things the most . ”

Jia Lan strode away, and her petite figure soon disappeared from view .
