Chapter 140: Da Shixiong, What a Netherworld Joke
“Where did Little Miss hear this news?”
It wasn’t that Yu Lan didn’t believe it, but he hadn’t detected any bad rumors about Han Ting in the Water Cloud Realm.
He knew this child; his talent was good, he was diligent in cultivation, and he had no bad habits.
Han Ting was Yu Qianqian’s fiancĂ©, so he naturally kept an eye on him.
“I know Han Ting. This matter might be a misunderstanding. I don’t know how Little Miss learned of it, but I will go investigate.”
Hearing this, Yu Qianqian laughed. “Sure, you go investigate. The person he likes is a man; it should be easy to check. It’s a perfect reason to break off this engagement with the Han family.”
Yu Lan was startled again. Thinking for a moment, he suggested, “Little Miss, that is too rash. You haven’t even met Han Ting yet. Why not meet him first?”
Wait until he investigates clearly. After all, marriage couldn’t be treated rashly. Moreover, Han Ting liking men was truly unbelievable.
Yu Qianqian raised an eyebrow. Han Ting? She naturally had to meet him.
However, before meeting, she naturally had to uncover the other party’s background and use his actions to righteously discuss breaking off the engagement.
Whether he was willing or not, she was definitely breaking this engagement.
Yu Qianqian agreed to let Yu Lan investigate. At the same time, she told Lin Qingyue, Ye Jingxian, and the others that the Yu family knew absolutely nothing about Han Ting having a man he liked extremely much.
Lin Qingyue smiledâa cold smile.
“Liking someone so secretively, without a shred of responsibility. If he were a real man, he should have proactively sought you out to break the engagement and then be with the person he likes.”
Hiding it like this, not letting anyone knowâwhat was that about?
If this Han Ting dared to like a man while being with Yu Qianqian, he and Da Shixiong would definitely let him know what a true sword cultivator was.
Thinking of how this fiancé character in the original work liked Yun Jinzhou, he had no good temper.
Liking this one now, liking Yun Jinzhou later, all while engaged to Yu Qianqianâhe just felt this person wasn’t anything good.
Li Jing nodded repeatedly at Lin Qingyue’s words. “Lin Qingyue is right.”
Thinking of himself, Li Jing said, “Liking someone means giving them everything. If you are willing to break the engagement, not only might this Han Ting agree, but he might also be grateful to you.”
Lin Qingyue glanced at him. The Young Sect Master was as naive as ever.
He really wanted to advise him: What Luo Wuhen? If it really doesn’t work, just stop liking him. He was really afraid he would lose everything in the future.
But Lin Qingyue didn’t say these words.
Brother Yu once said that liking someone is an involuntary matter.
No one can control their own heart. The body might not be free, but the heart can be.
Perhaps only by walking some paths himself would he know. No one was Li Jing; no one could truly empathize with him.
Perhaps later, after he hit the south wall (faced failure), if lucky, he would get what he wanted; if unlucky, he would only end up with a bloody head.
Then what about Da Shixiong? What if Da Shixiong keeps liking me and holds onto this obsession?
I should be straight. If I can’t respond to him, what if I delay him?
Lin Qingyue was somewhat worried. His thoughts drifted further and further, starting to wander. He didn’t even hear Ye Jingxian call him. It was only when Bai Dou climbed onto him that he came back to his senses.
“Bai Dou, what’s wrong?”
Bai Dou tugged at his clothes, looked up at him while chattering, and held up a spirit fruit for him.
Seeing the little guy giving spirit fruits again, Lin Qingyue was curious about what happened to make it so happy.
Taking the spirit fruit from Bai Dou, Lin Qingyue patted its little head. “Thank you, Bai Dou.”
After giving one to him, Bai Dou didn’t leave anyone out; everyone got one.
Just as it was about to stop, it realized a bunch of people had suddenly arrived.
It looked back at Lin Qingyue dumbfoundedly, then at Ye Jingxian.
A bit generous, but not that generous.
The spirit fruits Bai Dou gave them were from Yu Lan. When Lin Qingyue and the others went out for a stroll, they didn’t take it. Yu Qianqian had instructed repeatedly to take good care of Bai Dou.
The well-behaved and cute-looking Bai Dou used its personal charm to get quite a few spirit fruits. As soon as Lin Qingyue and the others returned, it found a chance to start sharing.
Who knew the Saber Drawers would return at this time? Bai Dou held the spirit fruits, the expression on its face extremely rich. Lin Qingyue burst out laughing, wanting to see what it would do.
Bai Dou turned its back. The spirit fruits in its hand disappeared, and it ran to Ye Jingxian, burying its face in his chest.
Several people laughed heartily. Yu Qianqian said, “Why is Bai Dou so cute!”
The newly arrived people were confused, not knowing what they were laughing at.
They looked at themselves and at those around them, faces full of doubt.
“Old Seven, what are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with us?”
Yuan An shook his head and said, “Just told a joke. It was funny.”
The Saber Drawer Big Brother, Cui Lian, asked curiously, “What joke?” He liked jokes the most.
Ye Jingxian comforted Bai Dou and spoke up. “There was a Daoist. Because the weather was too hot, everyone racked their brains but couldn’t figure out how to cool down without spending spirit stones or using spiritual power. Until one person thought of a method that used neither spirit stones nor spiritual power.”
He stopped there. Everyone looked at him, waiting for his next words.
“And then?” Lin Qingyue asked.
Ye Jingxian: “And then, guess what the method was?”
Cui Lian: “Did they go in the river, or find a heat-relieving artifact?”
Yuan An: “Big Brother, artifacts cost money.”
Cui Lian: “…”
Several people shook their heads and continued to ask, “So what was the method?”
Ye Jingxian glanced at them and said faintly, “Very simple. They found a ghost cultivator and used him to cool down.”
Silence. Endless silence.
Lin Qingyue thought he was snarky enough, but he didn’t expect his Da Shixiong to come up with such a netherworld (morbid) story.
Don’t say, that method really works. Aside from costing a person (‘waste person’ pun/double meaning potentially), there are no drawbacks.
“This… story is good.”
“Right, right. This method is also very imaginative.”
Exactly. Isn’t your Wanjian Sect a righteous sect? Saying such a damaging method out loud really makes people feel it’s unreal.
The group was speechless. It was truly strange for someone as upright, aloof, and otherworldly as Ye Jingxian to tell such a netherworld joke.
You’re breaking character, Da Shixiong.
Lin Qingyue clapped his hands, a smile on his face, extremely supportive. “Da Shixiong, this method is simply a genius idea.”
Ye Jingxian turned to look at him and smiled. “Many thanks, Xiao Shidi.”
