Chapter 288: Burning with Rage for No Reason
"Hey~ This guy is handsome, but he doesn't look familiar. Is this his first time in Liuyunxuan?" A girl twisted her waist, smiling, with seductive eyes, and turned around to sit next to Long Qi.
Long Qi shuddered suddenly and felt miserable.
After finally calming down Master Chengxin, he hadn't even sat down to have a glass of wine when trouble came knocking again.
Seeing that Master Chengxin opposite him looked annoyed, Long Qi quickly pushed the girl who was approaching.
"Young lady, please respect yourself. We are just here to do some business and we don't plan to stay long."
But the girl turned her eyes and leaned forward again: "Look at what you said, which man who comes here doesn't come here to do business? After the business is done, he naturally won't stay long, right?" As she said that, she stretched out her hand and lifted Long Qi's chin.
This posture was extremely ambiguous, and Long Qi was also dazed. He felt itchy all over his body, as if he had fallen into the clouds, but he woke up in an instant.
He glanced at Master Chengxin, who was standing across the table from him. Seeing his face showing displeasure and his long brows furrowed, he immediately became flustered. He quickly pushed the girl away and said, tongue-tiedly, "Miss, this is immoral. Please respect yourself."
"Moral?" The girl seemed to have heard a huge joke. She was shaking her body and waving her round fan. "We all come here to seek the pleasure of love, but this young man actually cares about morals. He's really adorable." After saying that, she was about to move closer.
Seeing this, Master Chengxin could no longer bear it any longer, and slammed the table so hard that the wine cups on the table were shaken off the table.
However, just as Master Chengxin was burning with rage, Long Qi was in a panic, and Liu Xia Banxia was keeping her head down and silent, they heard Lingxiang's voice coming from the side.
"You little slut, you dare to tease my woman."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lingxiang put one foot on the table and looked down at the girl: "Luyao, is it because your aunt doesn't come here often that you miss the taste of the dried dew on my hands?"
Hearing this, the girl named Lu Yao shuddered, quickly stood up and stood respectfully aside, saying "I dare not, I dare not" all the time.
The reason why Green Yao was so scared was that he had suffered enough from Lingxiang before.
Although Liuyunxuan is where Yue Niang makes a living, it is also where she shelters all the monsters. In the entire building, she is the only big monster, and the other monsters naturally follow her lead.
Yet, for some reason, Yue Niang was extremely polite to Ling Xiang. No one knew what the connection was, but how could a group of demons submit to a mere mortal? Although Yue Niang had given orders, some demons refused to obey, and they used subtle tactics to trip her up.
Little did he know that this girl was not someone to be trifled with. Although those little tricks would most likely not work, if anyone offended Lingxiang and was caught by her, she would definitely seek revenge without mercy.
Take Lu Yao for example, he had only put a few drops of croton juice in Ling Xiang's drinking cup, but somehow Ling Xiang had discovered it. This discovery was not a big deal, as this little devil had secretly given Lu Yao a drug called Lu He San.
You know, Green Yao is a willow tree spirit, and he needs water the most. But this Lu He San is the kind of medicine that causes water imbalance in the human body, and its efficacy is extraordinary.
Lu Yao would never forget that day; it felt like hell on earth. Ever since she took the Lu He Powder, she'd been feeling unwell, as if her body had been drained of all its moisture. She was so thirsty she couldn't leave the ancient well in the backyard, wishing she could just dive in. But the more she drank, the thirstier she became. The water she drank also swelled her stomach, causing her to ache and nearly reveal her true form.
If Yue Niang had not pleaded for mercy, Lingxiang would not have given the antidote. But since then, the entire Liuyunxuan knew Lingxiang's temper, and no one dared to offend her anymore. Even if they saw her, they would like to stay away from her.
Even if it is a demon, it still cherishes its life and cannot withstand such torture from this little girl.
Long Qi had never seen Ling Xiang act like this before. He was so frightened that he quickly stood up, rubbing his hands together as he approached Ling Xiang, saying with a smile, "Why get so angry? It was just a joke."
"Are you kidding?" Lingxiang snorted coldly and sat down. "I see you're enjoying yourself, little brother. And really, I should be happy that my disciple is being favored. Why should I be angry? Don't you agree, Green?"
Hearing Lingxiang mention him, Lu Yao quickly waved his hands to deny it, saying that he was blind and had offended Lingxiang.
But after hearing this, Long Qi was not like Lu Yao. Instead, he felt a little complacent.
Could it be that Lingxiang is jealous?
"Forget it," Lingxiang seemed to have lost interest after seeing Lu Yao's cautious look. She stood up and said to Cheng Xin Zhenren, "I think Senior Brother must be tired. Why don't we go back? It's better than leaving you feeling uncomfortable here."
This was a different way of teasing Master Chengxin, but Master Chengxin didn't take it seriously, as if he was used to it. He just stood up and walked out without looking back.
Not to mention Liuyunxuan, the whole Linxiang is now brightly lit, men and women, old and young, either in groups of three or five, or in pairs, the streets, alleys, pavilions and river banks are very lively.
Zhenren Chengxin walked very fast all the way. Even though the road was crowded, he could easily move through it. Even if someone blocked his way, he could just raise his hand and wave it to clear a path without making any sound.
Lingxiang and the others, despite their cultivation, struggled to keep up in the crowded crowd. Banxia assumed that Master Chengxin was angry, otherwise he wouldn't have remained silent. It was simply difficult to lash out in front of others, so he held back. She quietly asked Liu Xia what she had done wrong, but Liu Xia simply told her to relax.
Liu Xia thought that his master was angry with Miss Lingxiang, but he knew his master well. Although he was angry, he would never take his anger out on irrelevant people.
Despite this, Banxia was still a little uneasy. She was a timid person by nature, and Master Donghui had never been angry. Now, seeing her uncle-master so furious, she was really worried.
But compared to Banxia, Lingxiang's reaction was completely opposite. It was as if she didn't care about Chengxin Zhenren at all. She had an attitude of "You can be angry as you like, I will be at peace", and she was really absent-minded.
One was filled with worry, the other was calm and composed, and this distanced them from Master Chengxin. Master Chengxin didn't return to the inn until he looked back and didn't see Lingxiang and the others. He was so angry that his eyebrows turned red, and he threw his sleeves and went back to his room.
There is a big demon guarding this place, and it has a close relationship with Lingxiang, so she will not be in any danger, so Master Chengxin is so relieved.
But if that is the case, what is Master Chengxin angry about?
If asked, Master Chengxin himself probably wouldn't be able to explain it, but he felt furious, especially when he remembered Yue Niang's arrogant look just now, his anger became even more uncontrollable.
Throughout this journey, Master Chengxin had tried his best to be patient, but who knows how many times he had silently recited the Qingxin Jue along the way.
Forget it, why bother to argue with a female demon!
