“Elder Ling, where are you taking us to? It couldn’t be that you’re lost again, right?” Qi Yuan carefully asked with a hint of probing. The others cast a glance with hidden meaning at Qi Yuan, after all, she has been acting a bit weird since yesterday.
On the other hand, Ling Qingxuan had an indifferent expression, and Zhu Feng gave Qi Yuan a meaningful glance.
Coincidentally, the group was at the fork in the road, so Ling Qingxuan asked, “Which direction do you think the secret realm is?”
Qi Yuan did not expect this, she didn’t think Ling Qingxuan would actually ask her. Thankfully, she did know, so she happily and proudly pointed to the left road, “I think the secret realm is in this direction, Elder Ling, you’re…”
“We’re going right.” Ling Qingxuan left that sentence in her wake, and the other four quickly followed.
Qi Yuan's inner mind: …. Then why did you ask?!
[Host, honestly I don’t recommend you angering Qi Yuan right now, she will definitely go back and tattletale.]
Should just kill her, women are annoying.
ZZ swallowed the words it was about to say, [Host you should at least have some respect for your own gender.]
They circled about for a long time but still did not locate the secret realm. Qi Yuan couldn’t hold back her ridicule, “Elder Ling should have listened to what I said earlier, now we don’t know where we are.
Ye Xi couldn’t help but agree, “ Elder, let’s go to the other road.”
They had to return back in one day. If they did not complete the mission, they will be punished. Even though Elder Ling has made a name for herself, the sect master separates reward and punishment clearly. Lin Yue’er was already convinced on returning to the other road.
Ling Qingxuan remain unmoved, just as Qi Yuan brought the others a few steps away,.Zhu Feng, who was still next to Ling Qingxuan shouted loudly, “Oh wow, isn’t this an ancient secret realm?”
Qi Yuan’s expression changed, an ancient secret realm was better than the secret realm on the left side. An ancient secret realm's treasures were higher in rank too, Qi Yuan gritted her teeth and turned back.
“Ben Zuo (I) will not argue with the younger generation. You all will enter this secret realm, I will pick you up tomorrow.”
**Ben Zuo 本座 is a type of address, usually, when referred to others it’s 师作 which is a respectful address. Similar to an Emperor's "Zhen". It basically means “this excellency" or "this esteemed one" in respect of her title as an elder in the sect. I thought using the pinyin of the words Ben Zuo would work better than this excellency.**
With those words said, she got on her sword and left. The five people left behind glanced at each other. Zhu Feng could not help but laugh out loud, he even directly mocked Qi Yuan, “Junior sister, which way do you want to go?”
……
The northern wind blew past, the bone-chilling cold mercilessly permeated his body. Feng Jue’s body was continuously bleeding, his legs were weak as he ran until he finally reached the cliffside.
This morning when he was sold to the Wulin alliance estate by his parents, he hoped that the young lady would once again appear in front of him to save him. However, that did not happen. In the end, that must have been a dream, now that he has awake, he still needed to depend on himself.
He looked over his shoulder and saw the dozens of assassins drawing nearer.
“Mu Lin, the Wulin entire alliance estate has been wiped out by us, quickly give us the jade, then I will send you to meet your parents, how about it?”
They heard that the jade in the possession of the alliance master is the key to unlocking a treasure, they accepted the mission to wipe out the entire alliance estate and bring the jade back, the son of the alliance head in front of them was pretty good at running, however sadly the road is at an end.
Feng Jue stubbornly supported his body, his dry and cracked lips opened and closed, “I’m not Mu Lin, I’m Feng Jue.”
Sadly his voice was too quiet, so it was covered up by the wind.
His parents sold him into the alliance estate to pretend to be Mu Lin, when the alliance head noticed the enemies has arrived, he injured his leg and placed a fake jade on his body, everything was done in order to save Mu Lin, while he was the sacrificial lamb.
The so call right way, is just so, poor people like them can only be taken advantage of and be utilized.
The cold wind blew over, the assassins drew close, Feng Jue looked at the abyss below his feet, revealing a cold smile. It was time to end this ridiculous life. In his next life, he hoped he can be born with a better life.
“Not good, he jumped, the jade!”
The regret of the assassin drifted into his ears, the corners of Feng Jue's lips curled up. His body was descending into the abyss but he was not scared at all.
