Chapter 578 What's Wrong with Women?
"Well, is it really necessary to be so serious about this?"
“Why not?” Song Chunxue slammed her hand on the table and stood up. “I brought you up the mountain because you said you wanted to stay for a few days. I didn’t ask you to stay and become my fellow disciple.”
She said, enunciating each word clearly, "Not just anyone can stay and become a fellow disciple. Do you really think our big Taoist temple is a garbage dump?"
Master Zhang took a sip of tea to suppress his smile. Sure enough, his junior brother couldn't resist offending people like this.
Yu Wanqing's face grew increasingly grim, his thin jawline appearing even more bony due to his beard, looking like skin and bones.
He looked at the Taoist priest and asked, "Could it be that women are in charge of this Taoist temple?"
Master Zhang's eyes widened, and he quickly put down the teacup.
This person is really outspoken!
"Bang!"
"What's wrong with the woman?"
The loud noise of slamming the table startled Yu Wanqing, making him tremble.
He looked at Song Chunxue angrily, "Women are meant to serve others at home. Do you think you can be in charge here on the ancestral master's land? This Taoist temple is too unruly."
Song Chunxue's smile widened, her hands clasped in front of her. "Yes, you're right. Women are just beasts of burden, bearing children and carrying on the family line for men, right? Then your mother giving birth to you must have been disgusting."
"You..." Yu Wanqing slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "You're so unethical. Why did you have to insult my mother for no reason?"
"Isn't your mother a woman? Besides, I was just cursing you, not your mother. Can't you understand human language? Are your ears just for decoration?"
Song Chunxue looked him up and down with an arrogant expression, making no attempt to hide her disdain.
"Yeah, I overestimated you at first. I believed you when you, a charlatan who only knows how to swindle, said you were the King of Heaven. Humph, it's one thing to bully the weak outside, but you want to set rules for me here? Who do you think you are? You've gotten so used to eating shit that you can't remember the taste of normal food."
As she spoke, she shook her head in exasperation, "Tsk tsk, still bragging about being from Longhu Mountain. Don't ever say you're from Longhu Mountain again, or you'll tarnish the reputation of this sacred place."
"You vile woman, spouting such nonsense! Where is the slightest trace of the demeanor of a cultivator? You are simply..."
Seeing that his neck was red with anger, Song Chunxue raised her chin and said contemptuously, "I speak to people in a way that suits them, so why don't you hit me if you dare?"
Standing outside the door, Changfeng and Changyun laughed until their cheeks ached and their shoulders trembled violently, but they didn't make a sound.
The Taoist priest put his hand to his forehead; his junior brother was quite infuriating.
Tu Dan'er returned and stepped into the house, looking at Yu Wanqing with an annoyed tone, and said, "You can't beat him, can you? You've been too busy swindling and cheating, you probably can't even beat a woman."
These words completely enraged Yu Wanqing. He drew a sword from his waist, glared at Song Chunxue, and said, "This is outrageous! We've fought before, do you dare to accept the challenge?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Let's go." Song Chunxue's tone was calm, but her eyes were shining with excitement.
Master Zhang felt he should offer a reminder, "Master Yu, this junior brother of mine..."
"They've all called me inhuman, are you going to protect her, Daoist?" Yu Wanqing gritted his teeth in anger. "If this is how your sect treats its guests, then no cultivator in the world will ever come here to offer incense again!"
These words are too serious, so the Taoist priest waved his hand and said no more.
Yu Wanqing stood up angrily and stepped straight out of the threshold.
Song Chunxue followed behind, "I didn't realize you had a Qiankun bag too. The lightning-struck wood on your wrist is also a good thing. How about you give it to me if you lose?"
"You've been spouting nonsense, take this!"
Song Chunxue blocked the sword with one hand, her smile arrogant. "Ouch, you've got a strong grip and a fiery temper. Getting angry is bad for your health."
"You're courting death!" Yu Wanqing frowned, his sharp sword thrusting towards her.
The sound of swords clashing echoed in the courtyard; the swordplay was clearly fast and urgent.
"Master, how come my martial uncle is so skilled?" Tu Dan'er asked, his mouth agape as he approached the Taoist priest.
"What else can you do but study hard and practice diligently? There are no shortcuts in martial arts." The Taoist priest raised his eyes indifferently. "Tudan'er, starting tomorrow, you will also begin to practice swordsmanship."
"Master, please call me Wangchen. Don't mention the name Tudan'er again, not even once, or I won't practice."
The Taoist priest smiled, "Alright then, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Wanqing was knocked to the ground, with Song Chunxue's sword tip pointing directly at his throat.
"Junior brother!" The Taoist priest quickly walked down the steps and took the sword. "You won. Your swordsmanship has improved. Keep up the good work."
Song Chunxue glanced at the person sitting on the ground, who was filled with shock, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
She pointed at Yu Wanqing, her tone irritating, "You're a loser to women. If you don't have the strength, don't talk nonsense outside. If you encounter someone more powerful, you won't have my patience."
After saying that, she turned around and walked straight towards the kitchen, her back straight and neat, with a hint of disdain and arrogance.
The Taoist priest shook his head helplessly. Although his junior brother had become more patient, his rebellious nature was becoming more and more pronounced.
He reached out and pulled Yu Wanqing up from the ground, comforting her with the tone and manner of a master, "I'm really sorry, my junior brother here has always been clear about his grudges and doesn't like to hide things. She just wanted to vent her anger for my disciple, so please don't take it to heart."
Yu Wanqing stood there, stunned, still unable to accept that such a woman could defeat him so easily.
It didn't even take the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but didn't know where to begin.
"Fellow Daoist, are you alright?"
Yu Wanqing shook his head. "It's nothing. It's just that I heard she used to be a farmer and raised five children. Is that true?"
The Taoist priest glanced at Wangchen, who was rolling his eyes, and said, "That's right, it's true."
“Then she…” Yu Wanqing prepared his words, “Then she is truly amazing. How did she master swordsmanship to such an extent? I actually admit that when I saw her appearance, I felt that she had cultivated herself quite well and was very strict with herself.”
But to his surprise, her swordplay was so fluid and smooth that it made people mistakenly believe she was practicing a virgin's martial art.
"Heaven rewards diligence. She's just more hardworking than the average person." At this point, the Taoist priest shook his head slightly. "In her eyes, this isn't hardship, but a gift from heaven."
My junior brother once said that those who are tested by God are lucky people.
Her junior brother felt that she used to be like a blade of grass ignored by the heavens.
"Changyun, lead the way for Daoist Yu, prepare bedding so that he can rest first, and we'll have dinner together tonight."
Yu Wanqing didn't say much and followed Changyun to the side courtyard.
Tall and thin Changfeng stood in front of Wangchen, half a head taller than him.
He lowered his voice, "What do you think of Master Song's swordsmanship level?"
"Hmm?" Wang Chen stroked his chin and squinted. "He's very powerful, but I can't say what his level is."
Changfeng put down the broom and walked towards the front yard.
"Where are you going?" Wang Chen looked at his determined gaze and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Go and become an apprentice."
"ah?"
