The Villain Has Something to Say - Chapter 105

Chapter 105: The Story of Liu Yan Valley Went On! (I)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Ten years ago, Tai Hua Mountain’s Selection Trial went wrong, so the Third Sister Wei Qiongyin refused to take charge of holding the trial this year. Luo Jianqing was enjoying his wonderful time on Yu Xiao Peak with his Master, living every single day like in a honeymoon. The sun would be coming out from the west if he said yes to spend his time on holding the Selection Trial.

Normally, a task like this would be assigned to Second Brother Zuo Yunmo, but, in order to break late-stage Gold Core Period, Zuo Yunmo went into seclusion. All in all, the task landed on Forth Brother Xie Zizhuo and Fifth Brother Huo Yuchong’s shoulder.

Hearing the news, Xie Zizhuo went to Yu Xiao Peak that night and sobbed at the gate, “Great Senior Brother, you can’t just stand there and watch me burn! You know Huo Yuchong, that guy won’t give me a good time if we hold the trial together. I’m gonna die!”

Flying down from Yu Xiao Peak, Luo Jianqing looked at Xie Zizhuo with a smile. Intrigued, he asked, “I believe it was ten years ago when you killed Fifth Brother’s Spiritual Beast accidentally.”

Looking at Luo Jianqing, Xie Zizhuo paused for a second before he continued the sobbing, “Even if after a hundred years, Fifth Brother would never forget that. He’s got a better Spiritual Beast and I’ve given him lots of items as compensation, but he never ceased beating me up every time he sees me. Great Senior Brother, he shouldn’t have been so mean to me, right? I am his Senior Brother! He is so petty. You have to help me…”

“Who are you talking about? Who is petty?!” A loud voice came from the edge of the firmament. The next moment, Huo Yuchong appeared at the gate of Yu Xiao Peak.

Xie Zizhuo was stunned, “What are you doing here?!”

Huo Yuchong sneered, “It’s none of your business. If I don’t come, aren’t you going to backbite me in front of Great Senior Brother? Xie Zizhuo, you are petty! All of the Hao Ming Mountain’s disciples are petty! Come on, let’s fight. It’s just a FRIENDLY competition. I’m gonna let you know that Yu Shou Peak’s disciple is not the one you can mess with.”

The next instant, Huo Yuchong released a Spiritual Beast from his Spiritual Beast Pocket, which pounced toward Xie Zizhuo.

They had engaged into a fight for several rounds at the hillside of Yu Xiao Peak. Huo Yuchong wasn’t cultivating that hard since he put almost all of his efforts in training the Spiritual Beasts. However, though having a cultivation base, Xie Zizhuo was mainly avoiding the attacks and running around, didn’t attack his Younger Brother for at least one time.

Taking Luo Jianqing as his shield, Xie Zizhuo hid behind Luo Jianqing. The Great Senior Brother thought that his Younger Brother wanted him to settle this down, but before Luo Jianqing said yes to the request that Xie Zizhuo didn’t bring up, Xie Zizhuo whispered behind him, “Senior Brother, you become more winsome these days. Seriously, your flawless skin is even smoother than Little Sister. Can you tell me your skin care method? Hahaha, I’m currently chasing a Younger Sister on Qing Lan Peak…”

Luo Jianqing, “…”

Xie Zizhuo wasn’t just flattering him. Actually, he was telling the truth. He knew Luo Jianqing’s beauty since he was just a kid. Nonetheless, seeing Luo Jianqing again after several months, he felt that his Senior Brother became more gorgeous. His pearl-like skin, his rippling eyes, all made him an ethereal creature with a touch of… abstinence.

Without a warning or anything, Luo Jianqing kicked Xie Zizhuo right in the ass. The poor Younger Brother tried his best to dodge it, but, owning only middle-stage Gold Core Period cultivation base, Xie Zizhuo was as slow as a turtle compared to Luo Jianqing who almost achieved Out-of-Body Period. The latter was launched to the edge of sky with Luo Jianqing’s irritated yelling –

“Get lost!”

Huo Yuchong laughed, “Thank you so much Great Senior Brother! I’m gonna find this shameless guy and beat him up!”

The Fifth Brother dashed to the direction where Xie Zizhuo disappeared.

Luo Jianqing, “…”

What kind of Brothers had he got!?

No matter what, the Selection Trial still needed to be carried out. With lower cultivation level, Huo Yuchong didn’t really give Xie Zizhuo a hard time. They held the trial together successfully. This time, nothing abnormal happened.

Not like the last time when Tai Hua Mountain got twenty-four new blood, this year only three people were qualified, two female disciples and one male disciple.

A boy who owned the First Grade Spiritual Bone, a girl who came from Geng Family which was one of the Eight Families, and there was one candidate who amazed all the other Tai Hua Mountain’s disciples.

At age of twenty-eight, this female cultivator was way older than the bottom line that Tai Hua Mountain set for the new comers. Normally, a person like her shouldn’t even get a chance to sign up for the trial, but Tai Hua Mountain still made her an exception and set up a special Thunder Trial for her. Of course, the girl completed the trial successfully.

The girl was named Mu Ruorong. As a Rogue Cultivator, she already achieved fully developed late-stage Foundation Establishment Period at twenty-eight-year-old!

As for a Rogue Cultivator, owning a cultivation base like this was amazing. Luo Jianqing – the most talented Tai Hua Mountain’s disciple achieved the Gold Core Period at the age of thirty-two. Though part of the reason of him reaching that period so “late” was Xuan Lingzi’s intentional suppress, but that didn’t alter the fact that Mu Ruorong could be ranked within the top twenty among all the disciples on Tai Hua Mountain!

Within a day, Mu Ruorong’s name was famous among all the six peaks, only Yu Xiao Peak had little news of her.

Just coming back to Tai Hua Mountain, Li Xiuchen noticed that all of a sudden everyone was speaking of Mu Ruorong. Immense delight fulfilled him. Li Xiuchen exclaimed, “I can’t believe that she is here!”

Astonished, his Senior Brother asked, “Why, you know her?”

Trying his best to hold the victory scream back, Li Xiuchen replied, “Yep, I’ve met that Younger Sister in Wan Shou Mountain and when we departed, I told her that if she needed me at any time, come to Tai Hua Mountain to find me. I’m surprised that she’s really here. I’m gonna visit her right now. Two months later, after the Peak Competition, I’ll persuade her to join Hao Ming Peak for sure!”

Hearing Li Xiuchen’s words, the other disciples were delighted but, at the same time, upset.

Li Xiuchen was clearly showing off, but obviously he had some story with that girl.

The words spread around, saying the Younger Sister was a gorgeous beauty who was surely a pleasant to the eyes. Many single Senior Brothers had waited for a young lady like this for god-knew how long. This newly discovered relationship between the Sister and Li Xiuchen undoubtedly upset them and they all kept a distance from the exultant lad while practicing the maneuvers in the afternoon and stopped talking to him.

Li Xiuchen didn’t have a clue about the changing attitude from his Brothers. He was, now, overjoyed.

Right! Nothing’s really going off track!

Though he didn’t make love with Little Senior Sister Mu Tianxin in Sir Bei Dou’s Tomb, though he wasn’t able to strip off Mu Ruorong’s clothes in Wan Shou Mountain, though he failed to encounter that falling-from-ceiling Fiend Cultivatress in Yun State, one of the girls now came back to get him!

This might be an omen indicating that all could be mended!

He shouldn’t give up Mu Tianxin, nor should he give up Yun Xiang. These women would eventually be his wives sooner or later!

Keeoping this idea in mind, Li Xiuchen took action that day. At the lounge of the new disciples, he found Mu Ruorong who treated him with humble respect, but there was one thing that astonished him – the girl had already achieved fully developed late-stage Foundation Establishment Period while Li Xiuchen himself was only an early-stage Foundation Establishment Period cultivator!

Passionately, Li Xiuchen invited Mu Ruorong to join Hao Ming Peak and tried to have an intimate relationship with her but the girl expressed her refusal in a subtle way. At last, Li Xiuchen left the lounge with excitement, and didn’t even realize that, dealing him perfunctorily, Mu Ruorong had little intention to keep the conversation going.

Staring at Li Xiuchen who was heading back to Hao Ming Peak, thinking that he already got the girl in his pocket, Mu Ruorong frowned in disgust and mumbled, “Why would I come to Tai Hua Mountain if not to see my savior? You sordid nuisance, I remember that day in the cave you wanted to do some dirty things to me, do you really think I am that dumb and unable to even figure that out? Compared to that cultivator who saved me, you are nothing but a disgusting rat in the sewer!”

Going back to her own room, Mu Ruorong took out a glossy jade bottle, her cheeks gradually blushing.

This bottle was given to her by that cultivator before he left the cave. The ointment could heal some scars and wounds. She used up the ointment a long time ago but instead of throwing away the jade bottle, she kept it by her side. Mu Ruorong knew that she was too old to be a disciple of Tai Hua Mountain. To mend that disadvantage, she cultivated assiduously and went to Wan Shou Mountain countless times to sharpen her skills. At last, she achieved fully developed late-stage Foundation Establishment Period.

“Sir, are you here… or not?”

The wafting smoke of kindling candle concealed her shyness when the figure of that man emerged in her mind.
