Chapter 1032: You Can Go

Proofreader: Papatonks

Bali Yuyu gnashed her teeth and spat, “Rotten punk, you let your mouth run off and ended up in jail. Now I come to save you out of the kindness of my heart but instead of thanks you’re mocking me? What would you have done if I hadn’t come along?”

“Who asked you anyway?”

Zhuo Fan scoffed with a raised eyebrow, holding onto Chu Qingcheng’s hand, “I was even hoping to stay here for a couple of days. Miss Yuyu is free to leave. I’m stuck here behind the barriers and can’t go. Bye!”

[Hey!]

Bali Yuyu’s face twitched, annoyed with him to the extreme. She came to the rescue but the more she looked, she noticed they were unlike any prisoners she saw, they were more like guests.

[Is this your home? Are you free to come and go as you please? I even had to go through the guards!]

Burning with anger, Bali Yuyu stopped her cursing when she noticed Zhuo Fan holding hands with Chu Qingcheng. Her anger evaporated, replaced by confusion.

“Qian Fan, who is she?”

“My wife.”

“Your wife?” Bali Yuyu flinched, feeling her heart skip a beat but also souring. But as a Sword King, and particularly a warmonger, she wasn’t about to let softness show on her features. She took a deep breath to calm herself, “Why haven’t I heard about this, or seen her?”

Zhuo Fan rolled his eyes, “Who are you to me for me to tell you everything? Humph, it’s my fortune to be reunited with my wife. I shall treasure these days, imprisoned alongside her.”

“Be sure to look after junior sister Qingcheng, Zhuo Fan. You owe her too much after so many years.”

Wu Qingqiu said with a smile, forgetting there was a witch not up to two feet away. An expert that removed dozens of Genesis Stage experts without a sound.

Bali Yuyu looked confused and stared at Zhuo Fan, “Then I’ll break you out of here. We’ll talk once we’re safe…”

“No, my wife’s mind had suffered a shock and fighting will affect her. Staying here is much better.” 

“Just knock her out and we’ll be off.”

“What did you say?”

Zhuo Fan glared, “Bali Yuyu, listen here. She is my wife, touch her and you’ll be sorry!”

Bali Yuyu was taken aback having never seen Zhuo Fan be so determined. She knew the girl was very important to him and sighed with a lowered head.

One guard mediated, “Sir, miss Yuyu is only thinking of your own good. There’s no need to turn cruel over a simple refusal, ha-ha-ha…”

“This isn’t about keeping calm. I won’t let anyone touch her.” Zhuo Fan held Chu Qingcheng as he spoke with resolve.

Bali Yuyu’s face fell and gnashed her teeth. Shangguan Qingyan shook her head, feeling sad.

[Zhuo Fan is more careful with Chu Qingcheng than with any other girl. Senior sister Ruohua was right, Zhuo Fan and Chu Qingcheng were protective of each other, with no one able to separate them.]

Wu Qingqiu’s face twitched and asked his most pressing question, “Uh, Zhuo Fan, you just called this miss Bali Yuyu? What a coincidence for her to have the same name as the central area’s Frigid Rain Sword King, ha-ha-ha…”

“That’s me, it’s not a coincidence!”

Zhuo Fan stayed silent, but Wu Qingqiu and Shangguan Qingyan were frozen stiff. 

[Frigid Rain Sword King is in Sea Bright Sect and listening to this devious guy, but for what?] 

Bali Yuyu ignored their shock and the fact she was found out, “Since you don’t want to leave, what are you planning? Didn’t you aim for the North Sea? How are you going to reach it if you’re stuck here?”

“I’ll leave when the moment is right. Thanks for caring. But for now, I want to be with my wife. You can go now.”

“Go? If I go, who’ll save you?” Bali Yuyu roared, “You think just anyone can burst into Sea Bright Sect’s jail? If I go, you’ll either die or be stuck here till you die.” 

“It’s none of your concern. No one can stop me from leaving when I want, nor take me away if I don’t want to.” Zhuo Fan glared at her, his voice irreproachable, “Frigid Rain Sword King, we’re all behind bars so you don’t have to stay as well and can go back to report to Invincible Sword. This is all I amount to, getting trapped by the Sea Bright Sect. Devil Mountain disciple is nothing much, not when Devil Mountain doesn’t exist. You can go and tell him that. Your mission is over.” 

Bali Yuyu bit her lip, not wanting to go, her eyes glaring back, “You really don’t need my help?”

“No, now go!”

Zhuo Fan sighed, “With my wife by my side, I don’t need another woman causing misunderstandings. As someone under me, tonight is your last task. The plan is a success and we can go our separate ways. As you are with Baili Yutian, you can wait for my end then report it back to him. There’s no need for you to be here anymore.”

Bali Yuyu shook, with her and Shangguan Qingyan feeling stabbed in the heart. Having him say there was no place for any girl around him other than his wife cut them deep.

Bali Yuyu didn’t go anywhere, speaking coldly, “You think I want to stay around you? I’ve had enough ages ago, but with the Sea Bright Sect’s barrier so strong, I can’t pass it.”

“You didn’t get the Heaven Sealing Sword?”

“You think it’s that easy?”

Bali Yuyu rolled her eyes, “The Heaven Sealing Sword is behind an unbreakable barrier in the Heaven Sealing Pavilion. There are also the Four Snow Peak Elders, the strongest defenders in northern lands, watching over it. Their combined attacks would be hard to face even for Ouyang Lingtian. How then am I supposed to do it? Could you steal it then?” 

“No.”

“Obviously.”

“But you can!” Zhuo Fan’s eyes shone.

Bali Yuyu paused, “Are you deaf? I can’t beat those four and can’t even break the barrier.”

“I can’t because I don’t have the strength to face Sword King level experts. But you have it and can do it for me!” Zhuo Fan said, “Ever heard of diversion tactics?”

Bali Yuyu pondered and exclaimed, “You want to draw them out? But they’ve been alive for thousands of years. You think such a simple trick will work? And I still can’t deal with the barrier.”

“Going after them is bound to fail, which is why we’ll use a complex plan!”

Zhuo Fan’s eyes shone, “Because they’re wise old men, they have many things and thus many leverages. Ever heard of rumors becoming real?” 

Frigid Rain Sword King looked stumped.

He gestured to her to get closer and Zhuo Fan whispered dark secrets to her through the bars.

Bali Yuyu gave him a look of confusion at the end, “Will it actually work?” 

“With the old coots so obsessed with their stuff, they’re easy to dupe, even the wisest elders.” Zhuo Fan’s eyes sparkled. 

Bali Yuyu nodded and left, “I’ll give it a shot. But if it doesn’t work, I’ll take it out on you!”

“Don’t go failing on purpose just to find me. This trick only works once. Don’t waste my effort and brain cells.”

“If it works, I wouldn’t be caught dead coming back here.” Bali Yuyu huffed and her footsteps sounded distant now.

With the witch leaving, Wu Qingqiu gasped, “Zhuo Fan, are you siding with the central area’s Sword Star Empire?”

“Yeah, I thought you said you’re not here to make trouble for northern lands.” Shangguan Qingyan said hurriedly.

Zhuo Fan said, “I’m not here for northern lands’ affairs nor am I on the central area’s side. I’m doing it for myself. You can now go report, but don’t mess with the plan. You heard it, right? I want to go to the North Sea and the Sea Bright Sect would never lower the barrier for me. I can only borrow Bali Yuyu to weaken the barrier and make it easier for me to leave. This way it saves me a Dragon Breath Pill, which is great, ha-ha-ha…”

Zhuo Fan had a wide smile plastered on his face, making the two confused.

Outside the jail, Bali Yuyu looked furious around the corpses. She took a deep breath, about to throw away a token, but something held her back.

It was the same token Zhuo Fan had the Qian clan prepare for her.

Qian Fan’s wife, Qian Yu, escorting goods…

She heard voices nearby and Bali Yuyu gripped the token. She sniffed as her eyes teared over.

She put the token away and flew for the Heaven Sealing Pavilion…
