Chapter 673: Chapter 333: Drumstick Really Tastes Great
One incense stick ago.
Qin Gengyun said to Qiu Zhihe, "My lady, we should send a message to Jian Yue, have her lure Huang Kezhou away, and you can strike him down."
Qiu Zhihe’s eyes lit up: "Alright, let’s do it this way!"
Qin Gengyun immediately sent a message to Jian Yue next door. At this moment, Huang Kezhou was in Jian Yue’s room, trying to persuade Fairy Xiyue to become his Dao companion.
A moment later, Jian Yue led Huang Kezhou out of her room, heading far away.
"It’s done."
Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe exchanged a glance and silently left the house, following from a distance.
Jian Yue and Huang Kezhou quickly flew out of the woods. Just as Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe were about to follow, Qiu Zhihe suddenly stopped, her eyes growing cold.
"Someone’s behind us!"
Qin Gengyun’s thoughts raced. He glanced at Qiu Zhihe, and the couple understood each other without words. Qiu Zhihe softly said:
"Be careful."
After speaking, she went alone to pursue Jian Yue and Huang Kezhou, while Qin Gengyun stayed behind to block whoever was following them.
If Huang Kezhou dies, the Thunder Sword Sect will surely investigate tomorrow. Qiu Zhihe’s movements must not be discovered by others, but Qin Gengyun could see who the person was and act accordingly; perhaps even using this person as an alibi.
Watching his wife fade into the distance, Qin Gengyun paused for a moment, finally seeing a graceful figure in a blue dress appear behind him. He was slightly stunned:
"Fairy Jiang?"
The newcomer was indeed Jiang Yin. Her demeanor was cold and otherworldly, like a fairy untouched by the human world. However, upon seeing Qin Gengyun, her face immediately showed a look of surprise and delight:
"He, is it really you?"
Qin Gengyun observed her expression and judged that she only saw him and hadn’t noticed Qiu Zhihe. He secretly sighed in relief and said directly:
"Senior Sister Jiang, what exactly is your intention? Speak plainly if you will."
Jiang Yin’s face showed a look of bitterness: "He, have you truly forgotten our past feelings? Back then, when I first entered the Northern Wilderness and fell into danger, it was you who saved me. In that cave, you took care of me for several days, and every part of my body you have seen."
"You also promised to come to the Feiyun Sect to find me, but after I returned and waited for a long time, you never came."
"So I went to the Northern Wilderness to find you. It turned out you were besieged by Spirit Corpse Mountain and almost lost your life. That time, in the same cave, it was my turn to take care of you."
"I still remember that night; I gave myself to you, and you held me saying you would never leave me for eternity."
"Have you truly forgotten all these past events?!"
Qin Gengyun listened, baffled: "Senior Sister Jiang, your story is overly melodramatic. Could you make it a bit more plausible?"
Tears fell from Jiang Yin’s ethereal and pure face, her voice choked: "People say only the new smiles are seen, and the old cries are not heard. Forget it..."
Qin Gengyun sighed in relief. Regardless of what exactly was going on, it was best to rid himself of this inexplicable fairy.
However, Jiang Yin’s tone changed again, becoming deeply affectionate: "Since you already have a lawful wife, I can be your concubine as long as I can be with you. The title doesn’t matter."
"???
Qin Gengyun stared at her, dumbfounded:
"Are you out of your mind?"
"Hmph!"
At this moment, a cold snort rang out, and a massive spiritual power surged towards Qin Gengyun!
Qin Gengyun’s heart tightened, and he quickly gathered his spiritual power to defend, cupping his hands towards the darkness:
"Greetings, Sect Leader Bai."
"You are quite something!"
With a cold voice, Bai Liu slowly stepped out from the darkness, coldly eyeing Qin Gengyun.
"Sect Leader Bai, I truly do not know Senior Sister Jiang. There must be some misunderstanding! My lady is still waiting for me in the room; I shall take my leave."
Qin Gengyun quickly explained, but inwardly he was not worried but rather glad.
Now his alibi not only included Jiang Yin but also Bai Liu, so even if Huang Kezhou’s death was discovered tomorrow, neither he nor his wife would be directly suspected.
Jiang Yin’s eyes gleamed, seemingly scheming as well, suddenly stopping Qin Gengyun while she knelt before Bai Liu:
"Master, please don’t trouble He. It’s all my doing; it’s not his fault!"
Bai Liu’s face turned ashen, and he pointed at Jiang Yin: "You will come back with me immediately!"
Jiang Yin kowtowed and pleaded: "Master, I have long belonged to He, I beg you to allow me to marry him!"
Raising his head to look at Qin Gengyun, Bai Liu’s eyes were filled with murderous intent: "How dare you seduce my disciple?!"
Qin Gengyun looked completely innocent and confused: "No, Sect Leader Bai, Senior Sister Jiang must have mistaken me for someone else!"
Jiang Yin knelt on the ground, pleading bitterly: "Master, please let He and I be together! He is the only one in my heart!"
Veins bulged on Bai Liu’s forehead, clearly enraged to the extreme, but seeing Jiang Yin pleading so intensely, he also softened, coldly glancing at Qin Gengyun:
"This is a matter of the Feiyun Sect. I would ask you to leave."
Having achieved his goal, Qin Gengyun was also tired of dealing with this baffling duo of master and disciple, and cupped his hands:
"I take my leave."
With that, he turned and swiftly moved away towards the camp.
Jiang Yin knelt still on the ground, her voice sorrowful: "Master, I beg you, don’t separate me from He."
Bai Liu coldly looked at her: "You haven’t left Feiyun Mountain in years; how did you come to know this man?"
Jiang Yin raised her head, her serene and pure face still streaked with tears, making her even more pitiable:
"Master, every word I’ve said is true. In the past, I feared your disapproval and thus kept silent. But today, seeing He again, I could no longer suppress it. I ask for your blessing!"
"Silence!"
Bai Liu was furious: "You are my disciple, the dignified Fairy Yunqin, and yet you are willing to be a mere concubine. You have greatly disappointed me!"
Jiang Yin bowed her head and wept sorrowfully: "I have failed the two decades of your devoted teaching, Master. Please punish me!"
Kneeling on the ground, her body showed even more graceful curves; a strange gleam flashed in Bai Liu’s eyes, his voice suddenly turning subtle:
"My dear disciple, are you truly going to such lengths to avoid cultivating the Secret Technique with me?"
Jiang Yin quickly replied: "It’s not that I don’t wish to assist you, Master, but I have someone in my heart. Forcing me to cultivate with you might instead lead you into a frenzy. There are many outstanding female disciples in the Feiyun Sect, please consider another."
"Hmph!"
Bai Liu coldly said: "If you truly have affection for He Zhiqiu, I won’t break up lovers. But if you’re deceiving me, hehe..."
With that, Bai Liu’s handsome and distinguished figure already disappeared into the distance.
Only then did Jiang Yin slowly rise, the tear marks on her face already gone, and the pure and ethereal demeanor also vanished. She plopped herself on a nearby protruding rock, casually smoothing her hair, her voice lazy:
"Hmph, finally got away this time. Damn, pretending to be a fairy every day is exhausting!"
Leaning back against the rock, her legs spread carelessly, she took out a chicken leg and began eating it casually:
"Mmm... Speaking of which, there seemed to be someone else beside He Zhiqiu earlier. This person is quite formidable, even my Divine Sense couldn’t see him clearly. Mmm... Whatever, I’m a mess myself, why worry about others. Mmm, this chicken leg is delicious!"
