Chapter 116 - 115: Where the Lights Dim

Chapter 116: Chapter 115: Where the Lights Dim

This conversation lasted for nearly half an hour. Some tea was drunk, and the door finally opened.

Yuchi gently closed the door with his hand, watching as the curtain covered Xun Yu again, closing the door softly.

With a smile on his face, Yuchi looked at Wei Qingzhu, "Qingzhu, let’s go out for a walk."

"Okay, Brother Yuchi,"

Wei Qingzhu obediently came to Yuchi’s side.

Seeing this, Xun Xian’s face twitched.

"This Qingzhu really has two faces, I wonder how Yuchi manages this."

"How does he make this girl follow him so devotedly?"

"When can I get a sister like this too?"

Xun Xian followed behind them, feeling a little jealous.

From little Ximo’s perspective, she quite wished she had an uncle like Yuchi.

The kind who would pamper her so much that he’d practically hang a sign saying, ’This little girl is doted on by me, Yuchi.’

From Yuchi’s perspective, she also wanted a sister like Wei Qingzhu.

Someone who wouldn’t say anything to outsiders, just like having a close little confidante.

"So Yuchi, didn’t my godfather give you a hard time?" Xun Xian couldn’t hold back and caught up in a few steps, asking.

"How could he? He’s your godfather, he’s so nice to you, he must be a good person." Yuchi said with a smile.

In truth, he already had a very basic assessment.

First, Xun Yu has a peculiar emotion towards the Demon-slaying Bureau, uncertain if it’s good or bad, but it’s definitely not neutral.

Second, Xun Yu himself is not as straightforward as Xun Yu; his words hide more information.

Third, Xun Xian was misled by Xun Yu; at least, the Demon-slaying Bureau shouldn’t be directly linked to sentiment and loyalty, or perhaps he doesn’t understand now.

Yuchi flattering her godfather made Xun Xian very satisfied.

But thinking back, how could Yuchi walk out so nonchalantly?

"That’s true, but the key is, he’s the Golden Patrol, a Core Formation cultivator!" Xun Xian said suspiciously.

Cultivators naturally have a sense of exclusion towards mortals. Although this feeling isn’t strong for her, it still exists.

Not to mention her godfather.

But seeing Yuchi’s innocent face, she patted her forehead, saying, "Oh right, you’re not a cultivator either."

"To you, both the Qi Cultivation Realm and the Core Formation Stage are just different levels."

"You don’t fear me or anything, much less my godfather."

"I get it now."

"So it’s your aura that allows my godfather to speak with you calmly."

"Otherwise, if you showed even a hint of fear, I guess my godfather would seize the opportunity and escalate."

"That guy, don’t look at how chubby he is, he climbs up quickly."

Feeling a bit exasperated, Yuchi asked with a wry smile, "Miss Xun, are you always this sharp-tongued?"

"I’m just speaking the truth," Xun Xian replied frankly, "I was even planning to privately ask if Qingzhu was being bullied by you."

"But she completely stood by your side."

"Like I was going to take you away."

She had limited things she could hide in her heart, so she spoke freely, being fearless of offending people, ready to burn everything if necessary.

"So, do you have plans?" Xun Xian asked.

"Yes, a lunch tomorrow, but still undecided on where," Yuchi replied.

"Yay! There’s going to be food," Xun Xian said excitedly.

"Aren’t you afraid of your enemies?" Yuchi said, speechless.

This woman obviously had many enemies.

"You’ve got it wrong, you should ask if they’re afraid to see me," Xun Xian said proudly.

"Alright then."

Yuchi smiled but said nothing, turning his gaze to the quiet girl walking beside him.

The girl’s face was truly serene, such a beautiful young lady. If she laughed, it would be so lovely.

Lost in thought.

Wei Qingzhu curiously turned her head to look at Yuchi, "Brother Yuchi, are you already looking forward to the evening?"

"Uh, what do you mean?" Yuchi was taken aback.

"Simple, tonight I can wear that outfit for you," Wei Qingzhu said.

"...Thank you!"

"You’re welcome! Whatever you want me to do, I’m willing, it’s what I should do!" Wei Qingzhu declared confidently.

What else could Xun Xian say?

It’s a mutual agreement!

No wonder she was so upset before, it’s about protecting someone she loves!

...

East wind blowing a thousand trees into bloom at night. The stars fall like rain. The streets filled with fragrant horses and ornate carriages, music filling the air, a night of dragon and fish dances.

Gold threads in the snow-white pom-poms and butterflies. Laughter and whispers drift softly away. Searching for her countless times among the crowd, but suddenly turning back, there she was, where the lights dimly glimmered.

"Found her..."

"She really is under the streetlamp!"

In Jiangzhou City, the night without a curfew, Qingzhu ultimately got too tired, and the clothes bought during the day never got a chance to be worn.

Back at the inn, under Xun Xian’s watch, she drowsily drifted off to sleep.

It was really hard on this girl, she never complains of being tired.

Who knows if a child who cries will get to eat?

Yuchi just wandered out alone.

On one hand, to see the situation in Jiangzhou City, on the other hand, to clear his mind and prepare how to communicate with those old foxes at tomorrow’s meal.

The beauty of the scene was intoxicating, lanterns decorated the jade bridge.

On the river drifted many delightful lotus flowers; the bustling night market made Yuchi, accustomed to neon lights, deeply appreciate it.

Of course, he’d only been out for half an hour.

Without any particular direction, he wandered around aimlessly and just then, discovered a young girl.

Bewildered for a moment, once he realized, he continued to discreetly follow her.

Walking along, observing secretly.

Not because Yuchi had seen some celestial beauty, which wasn’t necessary.

Though Jiangzhou City was filled with beautiful women, having seen many, none compared to his little beauty Qingzhu by his side.

Bear in mind, Qingzhu hadn’t even started cultivating yet. Once she did, who knows to what extent she’d evolve.

Mainly, it was because he saw a girl with terrifying talent.

Ninth-Grade Wood Immortal Root!

Ninth Grade! A perfect Spirit Root, how powerful could she be!

Knowing that the higher the grade, the less likely to achieve, yet he encountered such a Ninth Grade.

And it seemed she wasn’t a cultivator!

Her clothes were those of a maid from a noble family, young!

"She definitely hasn’t been discovered for her talent!"

"Back then, Qingzhu got robbed and beaten because of her talent."

"If she’s discovered to have such talent, it would surely cause a storm of blood."

"So if I can recruit her into my Ascension Gate..."

"Then my Ascension Gate will add another cute girl... no, a great general!"

Yuchi couldn’t help but move towards her.

In his mind, there was only one thought: "Young lady, do you want to cultivate immortality?"
