Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Give Me a Hug_1

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou broke out in a cold sweat. The Wuliang Sect? Wasn’t that the sect where Blacky belonged? Could it be that after the youngster got bullied, an elder came to seek revenge?

Although it was just a guess, Qin Shou figured that there was a nine out of ten chance that this was the truth.

Qin Shou felt utterly displeased inside. Clearly, the Wuliang Sword Immortal intended to kill him and consume his flesh! If not for Qin Shou’s wit, let alone taking advantage and receiving blessings, he probably would have been turned into a pair of gloves by now!

Qin Shou was merely protecting himself, and he had tricked his opponent, incidentally obtaining a not-so-powerful magic ability along with some skills meant for the bedroom.

Yet, this guy held such a grudge and even took it up with his ancestors!

The damn Patriarch was even playing dirty behind his back!

This is just... a tolerable insult to me but intolerable to my wife!

So, Qin Shou asked, "Offer a grand gift? How grand? By the way, Star Monarch, why do so few people visit the moon?"

This was also Qin Shou’s puzzlement. Logically speaking, with immortals being able to fly and teleport, passing by and resting their feet, dropping something off, shouldn’t be too much to ask.

Taibai Star Monarch said, "Don’t be hasty, I’ll explain it to you slowly. The Wuliang Patriarch said his disciple saw a fairy on the moon who could dance beautifully, a dancer whose grace and beauty were rare in this world. There’s only one fairy on the moon, so he suggested that the dancer might possibly be Fairy Chang’e. However, the Wuliang Patriarch was very vague about it and was not certain, so at the time, he merely mentioned it symbolically."

Qin Shou said, "If it’s true, can he not come to see for himself?"

Taibai Star Monarch shook his head and said, "The moon is a forbidden area of the Heavenly Court, where the Yuan Qi is sealed, and it is in a state of lockdown, almost like a dead zone. Although it hasn’t reached the point where the Jade Emperor expressly forbids anyone from coming here, honestly, nobody wants to come. Plus, the fairy is entangled with great karma, and no one wants to get involved, so if it’s possible to stay away, they stay away."

Upon hearing "great karma," Qin Shou instinctively thought of the Queen Mother. After all, Chang’e ascended to the moon after consuming the Queen Mother’s Immortal Pill.

And the Queen Mother’s Immortal Pills were intended for her descendants!

Even though Chang’e consumed it for a special reason, Qin Shou knew very well that when a woman remembers a grudge, logic doesn’t matter.

At the same time, Qin Shou also understood why the Wuliang Patriarch only dared to engage in scheming from behind, not daring to make a personal visit...

But he had to admit, the opponent’s move was somewhat damaging. He only spoke of his disciple catching a glimpse, not actually seeing it for sure.

Once the Jade Emperor’s edict was issued, Chang’e would have to go. And if she could not dance, the consequences... would most likely fall upon Chang’e!

And as Chang’e’s pet and footman, Qin Shou was doomed for sure!

Yet the question arises again, how did the Wuliang Patriarch come to know about his and Chang’e’s affair? Was this guy so certain that by framing Chang’e, he could trap him too?

Qin Shou was completely baffled...

Taibai Star Monarch continued, "It’s quite embarrassing to say, but at that time, the Jade Emperor also asked for my advice."

"At the time, I also thought that since the fairy had come, it was right for her to integrate into the Immortal Realm, so I endorsed the idea as well."

"However, the fairy has never been to Yunxiao Palace, and probably doesn’t know the rules there. So I daringly suggested that the fairy, as a performer, participate in the Zhongyuan Festival banquet on July 15th. It’s relatively more relaxed there, with fewer rules and restrictions."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou almost rolled his eyes to the back of his head! Or wanted to pull off the back of his head and give this old guy a smack with it!

Turns out the real decision-maker behind this matter included this old guy’s input!

As Taibai Star Monarch spoke this, he sighed and said, "But upon further reflection, I realized my words were inappropriate. The Wuliang Patriarch is not a person known for his broad-mindedness. His sudden recommendation of the fairy was likely accompanied by other schemes. Fairy, you must be cautious. If I can assist the fairy during the Zhongyuan Festival banquet, I’ll do my best as recompense."

Chang’e had been silent all along, just listening quietly. Even upon hearing this, she seemed to show no sign of emotional fluctuation.

That cold demeanor, that arrogance, left Qin Shou a bit perplexed about what was going through the girl’s mind.

Could she really not be scared at all? So composed?

It was at this moment that Chang’e finally began to speak slowly, gently sipping her tea with a smile, "The Star Monarch is kind, why would I blame him? However, I do have a modest request and I hope the Star Monarch could lend a hand."

The moment Taibai Star Monarch heard this, he was immediately taken aback, but quickly recovered and said, "The fairy is magnanimous and broad-minded, I am truly inferior. Please, speak your wish, if it is within my power, I will spare no effort."

Chang’e stroked Qin Shou’s head, and Qin Shou suddenly had a bad feeling.

Chang’e said, "Actually, I cannot dance, and I fear that if I attend the feast, I might not perform well. If I were to provoke divine anger, I am afraid that..."

Hearing this, Qin Shou knew that Chang’e was not foolish; on the contrary, she was very clever.

She had identified the key point in an instant!

This was a trap!

Taibai Star Monarch sighed, obviously aware of what the outcome could be, and said, "Please speak, fairy."

Chang’e said, "If anything untoward should happen to me, I would like the Star Monarch to look after Yu’er. Yu’er has lived a life of misery, without enough food or sleep, and even suffers from illness. If I am met with misfortune, I fear he will not survive..."

Taibai Star Monarch looked at Chang’e in surprise, then at the rabbit, and asked, "This little dog is sick?"

Upon hearing these words, Qin Shou completely lost hope in the white-bearded old man; with that level of perception and language skills, if he were on Earth, he probably wouldn’t survive three days!

Chang’e nodded slightly.

However, before Taibai Star Monarch could agree, Qin Shou interjected, "No need! We will strive to cope with the Mid-year Festival, and if by some fluke we make it through, all the better. And if not, without Chang’e, what’s the point of me living? Better off dead together."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou distinctly felt Chang’e’s body tremble slightly, and the calm ice-like face’s eyelashes fluttered, evidently stirring her heart.

Chang’e said, "You... "

Qin Shou flicked his rabbit ears and said, "Don’t say anything else, let’s happily settle on that."

Taibai Star Monarch also felt the tension in the atmosphere and sighed, "Well then, I shall take my leave."

Chang’e stood up and said, "Star Monarch, take care."

Taibai Star Monarch nodded slightly, ready to take off.

Qin Shou suddenly remembered he was dealing with an immortal here! Surely he had more treasures on him than that pauper Wu Gang!

So Qin Shou shouted, "Wait!"

Taibai Star Monarch turned back, puzzled, and asked, "Is there something else?"

Qin Shou looked pitifully at Taibai Star Monarch and said, "Parting today, who knows if we’ll ever have the chance to meet again. Let’s hug and leave a memory."

Upon hearing this, Taibai Star Monarch felt a pang in his heart and said, "Alright, let’s hug."

Qin Shou leapt up immediately, and Taibai Star Monarch embraced him without paying much attention. Suddenly, without noticing, Qin Shou muttered under his breath, "Steal the heavens, steal the earth, steal your underwear..."
