Chapter 96 Wrath of Kun - 5 Lu Qing looked down while holding the bowl, and...
Lu Qing looked down at the bowl and saw it was the spirit pouch that had bound the black hair. She had been collecting so much lately that she had completely forgotten about the black hair. She thought for a moment, then said, "Give it to me."
Qi Ying placed the spirit pouch on the table for her.
Lu Qing did not open it immediately, but waited until he finished eating before opening the spirit pouch.
The black hair immediately sprouted out, letting out a greedy deep breath, "The mountain is indeed better than the underground."
Lu Qing asked curiously, "How did you know this was on a mountain?"
“I’m not dead, I can hear you even if you lock me in there,” the black-haired man muttered.
Does that mean this guy heard her talking to Wu Chen? Without saying a word, Lu Qing took out her eyebrow ruler and started slapping him repeatedly.
The black-haired man's screams almost shook the roof. The disciples outside were startled, not knowing what had happened inside.
Lu Qing sneered as he punched her hard.
The black-haired woman cried out, "Why didn't you beat up all those little bitches earlier, but instead came to bully this poor soul? God, why do you have to make me suffer like this?"
"Why?" Lu Qing sneered. "In your tomb, there must be at least a hundred or so corpse puppets, right? And those women just now, although they were wicked and frivolous, compared to you, they were at most annoying fleas. You are the ruthless killer. If I don't beat you up, who will I beat up?"
The man with black hair choked up and remained silent for a long while before finally saying, "Haven't they already turned over a new leaf and reformed?"
Lu Qing: "Hehe."
Seeing that Meijianchi had stopped, the black-haired girl immediately rolled over and hid behind the bowl. "Little Master's Wife, Little Master's Wife, let's discuss this. You see, I've already committed a grave mistake. Those people can't be brought back to life, and I can't die again to atone for my sins. Anyway, you've already taken me in. Rather than locking me up in that spirit pouch, it's better to keep me by your side as a maid. With your bell keeping me in check, you'll know what I want to do. Meeting you is a matter of fate. I've gained a glimmer of hope, and you've accumulated merit. This might just be a tremendous blessing. What do you say?"
She spoke a long string of words without pausing, and it's unclear how long she had been thinking about them.
Lu Qing chuckled, then locked the black hair back into the spirit pouch, lit a fire, and threw it in, causing the black hair to wail and scream as it burned.
Qi Ying had been squatting beside the pile of treasures, listening intently. Seeing the black-haired man's pitiful cries, she said, "Master's wife, actually, if this black-haired man truly reformed..."
Lu Qing sighed helplessly, "Are you all helpless when a woman cries? Let me tell you, this woman is ruthless. She's been thinking about these words for a long time, just taking advantage of your soft hearts. If we really let her out, who knows what kind of trouble she'll cause if she doesn't change her ways. We won't be able to kill her or burn her. It'll give your parents a real headache. I'd rather just keep her locked up like this."
No, no, she didn't want to be locked up. Her black hair bounced wildly inside the spirit pouch. When she was in the tomb, although she never saw the light of day, she still had corpse puppets to manipulate. But now, locked up in the spirit pouch, with nothing at all, she was going crazy.
"No, no, I will definitely..." Before the black-haired man could swear an oath, Lu Qing covered the area with the peace bell, and immediately there was silence.
Lu Qing thought for a moment, then tossed the spirit pouch containing the black-haired girl to Qi Ying. "Find a heavily guarded place and lock her up. Don't let anyone touch her. This demon is cunning and shameless; if you don't know her secrets, you'll be fooled to death without even realizing it. I'll discuss this with your master before deciding what to do." Her fighting skills were barely passable, but Wu Chen was definitely better at cleaning up messes. This kind of headache was best left to Wu Chen to handle.
Qi Ying quickly put the spirit pouch away.
“Master’s wife, these items will be useful to several of my junior brothers. I’ll pack them in a box for you in a bit and write their names on them.” Qi Ying showed her the gifts he had chosen.
Lu Qing glanced around; there were pills and some treasures to help with cultivation and concentration, but no weapons. Of course, they were all Wu Chen's disciples; Wu Chen must have already chosen weapons for them. Lu Qing nodded and continued tidying up the spoils scattered on the ground.
Meanwhile, Wu Chen had finished discussing the matters of the Western Wilderness with Elder Yu. Elder Yu didn't dare to delay for a moment and sent someone to invite an elder with whom he had a good relationship to come and discuss the matter.
Wu Chen was able to rest for a while. Madam Yu sent someone to bring him food, and after he and Yu Jitang had a simple meal, they were talking under the eaves.
At this moment, a man from the Yu family walked over with a woman, his face full of anger.
Upon seeing him, Yu Jitang greeted him lazily, "Seventeenth Uncle, how have you been? How are you?"
Uncle Yu snorted coldly, "I am not worthy of such a greeting from the Divine Servant. I fear it would shorten my lifespan."
"Heh, Uncle Seventeen, you're really angry. Why are you taking it out on me? I've been away from home for a long time, I don't think I've offended you, Uncle Seventeen," Yu Jitang said with a smile.
The woman following behind Uncle Yu Seventeen began to sob, “Third Brother, you must stand up for me. I was humiliated today, and even my sword was taken away. I have to ask the elders to come forward and apologize before they will return my sword to me.”
"Heh, who is this person, so bold as to offend you?" Yu Jitang asked casually. He really looked down on his cousin; all she did was act spoiled and silly all day, her cultivation was sporadic, and her cultivation level was basically filled with pills. Taking advantage of the fact that she was his father's only daughter, she acted recklessly. She had taken a liking to Wu Chen, and regardless of the situation, she relentlessly pestered him, making him lose face countless times.
Uncle Yu sneered, "You'll have to ask the Witch God Servant about that."
Wu Chen was taken aback by the question, "Ask me?!"
"I've heard that the Witch God's attendant has a new wife. Is it true or not?"
Wu Chen nodded. "That is indeed the case. My wife just returned with me today and I haven't introduced her to you all yet. I will send out the invitations after I have arranged the banquet."
Miss Yu's crying suddenly rose several pitches.
Uncle Yu Seventeen said with a dark face, "The wife of the Witch God Servant certainly has quite the grand air. My daughter only went to your Nukun Peak to inquire about my nephew, and she was humiliated by your wife, who even took away her sword and demanded that I personally come to apologize. Witch God Servant, what do you have to say about this?"
Yu Jitang laughed, "That really sounds like something Lu Qing would do."
Upon hearing this, Miss Yu burst into tears.
Wu Chen smiled. "My wife is young, has a good temper, and is a very reasonable person. I don't know what Miss Yu did to make my wife lose her temper!"
Uncle Yu was so angry, "You!"
Miss Yu stopped crying and shouted, "I didn't do anything! I didn't even say a word to her. It was her who was always there, spewing insults and ridiculing me. She took away my sword, and even the swords of Senior Sister Qin and several other senior sisters. Even if she argued with Senior Sister Qin, what right did she have to humiliate me?"
Wu Chen's smile faded, and he said calmly, "Miss Yu, you have to be responsible for your words. In just one encounter, my wife has been accused of three crimes: 'sharp tongue,' 'bullying the innocent,' and 'stirring up trouble for no reason.' It's easiest to hurt people with harsh words. If we find out the truth, and the facts are not as Miss Yu says, what will Miss Yu do then?" His little darling never allows herself to be gossiped about; how could she be as reckless and ignorant as this Miss Yu claims?
Miss Yu's eyes darted around. "What I said is true. I really didn't speak to her or do anything. It's also true that she took my sword, and it's still stuck in a rock on Nukun Peak. She must apologize to me in public."
Wu Chen lowered his eyes. "Doing something doesn't necessarily mean it's wrong, and not doing something doesn't necessarily mean it's right. If Miss Yu really thinks she's not wrong, why not explain the whole story so we can have a proper discussion?"
Miss Yu immediately burst into tears again, tugging at her father's sleeve, "Father, are you just going to stand by and watch your daughter be humiliated?"
Uncle Yu Shiqi shouted, "Wu Chen, no matter if you are a divine servant or anything else, you must persuade people with reason. You and your wife must apologize to my daughter."
Wu Chen sneered and said to Yu Jitang, "Elder Yu and the other elders will probably need to discuss this for a while. I'll go back and check on things first. She's unfamiliar with this place and has been bullied by these cunning and shrewish people, and she has nowhere to seek justice."
Uncle Yu Seventeen retorted angrily, "Wu Chen, who are you calling a cunning idiot?"
Yu Jitang reached out and scratched his itchy ear. "You go ahead, I'll explain things to my father for you, and I'll also go over and support Lu Qing later."
Wu Chen smiled, stepped onto the Taiyi Sword, and ascended into the sky, not even bothering to look at Yu Shiqi and his daughter.
