Chapter 69: Walking the Ghost Steps at Such a Young Age
With every sentence Ye Zhanxiu spoke, Qi Yuan’s face grew uglier, darkening a shade each time.
Moreover, the more he cursed, the more agitated he became, until later, it was impossible to hear clearly what he was cursing about.
At this moment, the shocked and frightened members of the Wanjian Sect hurriedly stepped forward to intervene.
“Enough, enough, Junior Brother Ye, we know it’s not you. Calm down, calm down.”
“Senior Brother Ye, let it go, let it go. We know you aren’t that kind of person.”
“Exactly, exactly. They are just accusing the wrong person. Of course, maybe the child didn’t see clearly. You calm down, calm down.”
“Senior Brother Ye, we all understand. It’s not you, it’s not you. Please quell your anger. It was just a slip of the tongue from Junior Brother Qi, a slip of the tongue.”
“Are you thirsty? Drink some water, drink some water.”
“Right, right, right, your mouth must be dry. Drink water, drink water.”
“Senior Brother Ye must be tired, take a rest…”
Some Peak Master mentioned “tired,” and others who knew Ye Zhanxiu’s personality well immediately refuted it.
“Tired, my ass! How could Senior Brother Ye be tired? Senior Brother Ye is just working hard; he needs water to cool his anger.”
“Exactly, exactly. How could we wrong Junior Brother Ye?” The Sect Leader hurriedly added upon hearing this.
His heart was bitter. Junior Brother Qi really didn’t know how to speak; he had directly lit this firecracker that hadn’t gone off in a hundred years, and now it had exploded too hard.
The Sect Leader smiled awkwardly at Si Yi and the man in the white fox mask, mentally screaming.
Junior Brother Ye, Junior Brother Ye, cursing a bit is enough. We know it’s not you. If you keep cursing, I’m really afraid we’ll end up fighting the Tianshan Snow Fox Clan.
Fortunately, the man in the white fox mask didn’t speak. A hint of amusement flashed in his eyes as he looked at them with an unreadable expression.
Lin Qingyue and Si Yi were both confused by this operation.
“Eldest Senior Brother,” Lin Qingyue called out, “This scene is unforgettable.”
Ye Jingxian was very calm. “En. Rare. Hard to come by.”
Lin Qingyue: “So, the Martial Uncles and Aunts are…?”
Ye Jingxian clarified his confusion. “Because if they don’t persuade him, Master will start getting physical after he’s done cursing. Once he starts fighting, if the other party doesn’t apologize or retract their words, he will pester them endlessly.”
“Once the Martial Uncles see Master start cursing, they know he didn’t do it. If they don’t stop him, no one will be able to hold him back later.”
After all, Ye Zhanxiu was the type to start a brawl. If anyone tried to stop him, he’d fight them too. Even a dog passing by would get cursed at if it looked like it wanted to say “forget it.”
Lin Qingyue’s facial expression was very rich. He had chosen them back then because he saw his Master’s solemn face and Ye Jingxian’s cold face.
Why was he now being told that there was such a huge contrast from their usual selves?
Not to mention Lin Qingyue, even Si Yi was bewildered. He had originally just wanted to go with the flow and randomly acknowledge a father so he could become fellow disciples with Lin Qingyue.
Then, later, he could explain that the “abandoning wife and child” part was a mistake. When he eventually found that man, he would take action himself.
Who could have guessed things would develop to this stage? He looked at the man wearing the white fox mask beside him, his eyes filled with helplessness. He hadn’t expected it to be like this.
“If you want to stay in the Wanjian Sect… while it is a pity this man is not your father, he is actually very suitable to be your Master.”
Si Yi hadn’t expected him to speak and was slightly stunned.
Over there, the group of Peak Masters and elders of the Wanjian Sect finally breathed a collective sigh of relief after persuading Ye Zhanxiu for half a day.
Su Ling watched Ye Zhanxiu and the others with smiling eyes the entire time. She didn’t go forward, only saying to Lin Qingyue, “Stunned, aren’t you?”
Lin Qingyue nodded. Martial Uncle Su, “stunned” is an understatement. I just watched my Master replace himself with a different person right in front of me.
Noticing the smile Su Ling revealed, Lin Qingyue looked at her. Her eyes were full of appreciation and uncontrollable amusement.
Lin Qingyue was truly confused now. Looking at the other Martial Uncles, he wondered: Is this some special fetish of Martial Uncle Su?
“Martial Uncle, is my Master handsome like this? Does he have charisma? Is he very likable?”
“That is…” Naturally.
Su Ling paused, then chuckled softly. “Little Qingyue, what do you mean?”
Lin Qingyue smiled. “Martial Uncle, my eyesight is excellent.”
Su Ling raised an eyebrow, the corners of her mouth hooking up. “Is that so? I just said your Master picked up a huge bargain.”
“Junior Sister Su, come here, come here.”
Seeing her talking to Lin Qingyue, the Sect Leader smiled and said, “Junior Sister Su, stop watching, stop watching. Come persuade your Senior Brother Ye.”
Su Ling’s eyes curved upward, her smile widening. “Sect Leader Senior Brother, that wouldn’t be good. Just let Senior Brother Ye curse a bit; he isn’t getting physical.”
Sect Leader: “…”
Don’t be like this. I’m really mentally exhausted.
“Junior Sister Su, stop joking. You know Ye the Donkey is stubborn as hell; only you can handle him.”
A medical cultivator who was also a sword cultivator—who in the cultivation world dared to provoke her?!
Su Ling huffed lightly. “Look at what the Sect Leader is saying. Am I someone who bullies others with my status? We medical cultivators have compassionate hearts and love all living beings. We don’t know how to ‘handle’ people.”
The Sect Leader was choked speechless. It’s a good thing these two aren’t together, or I would definitely be angered to death by them.
“Exactly,” Lin Qingyue chimed in. “Sect Leader Martial Uncle, how can you speak of our Master like that? He was already miserable enough being wrongly accused by Martial Uncle Qi earlier.”
Lin Qingyue laughed maniacally in his heart, desperately suppressing the corners of his mouth while pretending to be sad.
Hahahaha, Old Dog Qi, you didn’t expect this, did you? My Master is your nemesis!
On the importance of choosing the right Master—Lin Qingyue sighed inwardly. If the original Lin Qingyue had chosen Ye Zhanxiu in the novel, perhaps he wouldn’t have met such a terrible end.
“Junior Brother Lin, my Master was also speaking out against injustice. Furthermore, wasn’t it the Tianshan Snow Fox Clan who wronged you? Instead of blaming them, you blame my Master who meant well for your Senior Uncle?”
Hearing this, Lin Qingyue was somewhat surprised.
Not surprised at how the words were spoken, but rather… When did Yun Jinzhou get here?
Since when did the male lead have such zero presence?
Lin Qingyue looked at him. “When did you arrive? Walking without making a sound… seems your cultivation is going well. You know how to walk the ghost steps at such a young age.”
Yun Jinzhou: “…”
What does Lin Qingyue mean by this? Yun Jinzhou forced a smile, but just then, Ye Jingxian corrected him.
“Little Junior Brother, with your current cultivation, it is impossible to move silently. He must be wearing Dharma boots.”
“However, the main hall is so noisy; it is truly normal for us to overlook someone.”
Ye Jingxian spoke with dead seriousness, and Lin Qingyue’s mouth almost cracked from grinning. Especially seeing Yun Jinzhou’s ugly expression—he really couldn’t hold it back.
Lin Qingyue is annoying, and the people from Guicang Peak are also annoying. Each one speaks more unpleasantly than the last.
Yun Jinzhou’s face turned a colorful shade of black, nearly twisting uncontrollably.
The Sect Leader looked at this mess and cast a resentful gaze at the instigator, the Patriarch of the Tianshan Snow Fox Clan.
Acting mysterious at such an old age—probably afraid people will see that face ravaged by time.
“Junior Sister Su, go persuade him quickly.” After speaking to Su Ling, the Sect Leader turned to Lin Qingyue and the others. “Why don’t you two go persuade him too?”
After saying that, the Sect Leader felt it was a bad decision. “Actually, never mind. Don’t let yourselves get led astray.”
Yun Jinzhou’s eyes widened. Is the Sect Leader being deceived? Do those two even need to be led astray?!
