Chapter 637: Unpredictable

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A villa stood at the base of the mountainous area of Qi City.

During April of the third year of Shenyuan, spring arrived and colored the mountain range green. The atmosphere flooded with the light chirping of birds and fragrance of flowers that lingered around.

Inside a huge room of a villa, a recording of a battle was playing on the gigantic high-resolution screen hanging on one of the walls.

It had four audience members.

Shen Xingchen, who just lost the battle completely, put on an innocent face and stood at the side, waiting on them like a servant, while the other three sat in their seats.

If any of the passersby just now saw his current attitude, they would definitely be surprised. Who in the world could induce such respect from him?

The video of the battle was none other than Shen Xingchen and Vigilante A’s long-winded fight.

They had a fierce fight in the small patch of land, even the control they exerted was at its peak without any signs of overflow, leaving chairs, tables, or stools unharmed...

It was obvious that in spite of his problematic personality, he had a great aptitude.

Eventually, a gentle young man said to another man clad in a traditional long robe gently, “Buwei, you inherited Divining by the Clouds from our elder brothers and are most proficient in analyzing and calculating. In your opinion, how will you rate the combat performance of these two people in the recording?”

Gu Buwei muttered under his breath for a while and said gently, “According to the 150mark examination paper from the seculars, Brother Shen earned 148marks while the Venerable Dragon God, 150marks.”

Hearing that, Shen Xingchen’s eyes gleamed with happiness although clouded by some dissatisfaction.

Beside the gentle young man, a pleasant-looking lady sat with a look of sophistication.

She smiled and praised Shen XingChen, “Shen-er, it seems like your hardcore cultivation paid off. You’ve improved a lot. Your Master’s and my efforts are not in vain.”

“Yes, yes, I thank mistress and master for your guidance. I’m forever indebted.” Shen XingChen hurriedly bowed respectfully.

The gentle young man shook his head and then smiled gently. He said, “Buwei, I know you. You haven’t finished, have you?”

Gu Buwei nodded and said, “Brother Shen scored 148 marks because he achieved that standard in combat, but the Venerable Dragon God only scored 150 marks because the test maxes out at 150 marks.”

“Hiss...” The sophisticated lady listened in surprise and looked at her husband confusedly, “Ruoyu, why did Buwei say that?”

“Hehe, madam... Didn’t you look at the surroundings of the battlefield? The maximum limit of the test refers to the surroundings of the battlefield because the Hero was unable to use his powers freely.” Shang Ruoyu revealed the answer immediately.

He knew his wife, Qi Hui’s gentle personality was in contrast with his sister-in-law, Qi Mei’s competitive personality. Hence, Qi Hui always made mistakes in combat.

Hearing this, Shen Xingchen’s face paled. His expression contorted for a while before a look of dissatisfaction flashed across his face.

After listening to the explanation, Qi Hui jolted in realization and said, “So that’s how it is. I was just wondering how the fellow was able to suppress my sister who owns the head of Azure Mountain’s secret treasure last year. It’s impossible that he could’ve reached this level of performance after a year. It’s unfortunate that something happened to Mei-er last year. If it were this year, they could probably put up a fight.”

Hearing that, Shang Ruoyu looked troubled. He furrowed his brows together slightly before smoothing them out.

He consoled, “Don’t worry, even though Mei-er doesn’t have the luck to become Tian Zhu’s child, Brother was kind enough to personally ensure that she reincarnated into a Spirit King. In a way, we can consider it the silver lining.”

“Well, that’s good too. Unfortunately, Mei-er is naturally competitive. Among the many Spirit King disciples on the mountain, only the new disciple, Bao Lidao, has the best qualifications. It’s unfortunate that he’s a man... She probably isn’t interested in the rest. Since she isn’t willing to reincarnate again, she’s obviously wasting the opportunity that you fought for her.” Qi Hui stopped talking as she thought about her worries, and frowned.

Shen Xingchen, who had been standing at the side, felt a cold jab in his heart, but he was careful not to show it on his face.

Of course, he knew the Spirit King Bao Lidao.

The man was greatly talented; his talents definitely did not lose out to Zhu Hongyin from the Association of Spirit Kings.

Being discovered as Azure Mountain’s disciples together and working together to gather disciples for the Azure Mountain, they could be considered more than mere acquaintances as they worked for the Azure Mountain...

However, once the core disciples from the Azure Mountain required his spirit body, he would have to give it up...

He was afraid that soon enough, he would have to erase his memories, leaving behind an empty spirit body, and wait for its new owner — Qi Mei.

He once heard from his master’s brother that Guardian Goddess of Azure Mountain, Tian Zhu, was pregnant and that her baby was originally intended as the best choice for Qi Mei’s reincarnation.

However, the opponent had strong support. The number one think tank of the Truth Department, Ren Ruofeng, planned an elaborate strategy and called upon many powerhouses to suppress the Azure Mountain that the baby escaped the horrible fate.

However, this new Spirit King did not have the same kind of support.

If he did not covet the prestige of the Azure Mountain and chose to cultivate somewhere else, he probably would not face this ill fate.

After all, there was still the existence that often meddled in other people’s affairs called Vigilante A.

Even though he did not admire Vigilante A, he still had to admit that with more idiots like Vigilante A in the world, they would make the world easier to live in for geniuses like himself.

Shen Xingchen thought about this and decided secretly to improve himself no matter the means. He must be strong so that no one else would be able to pull the strings to his fate. He would definitely take back the humiliation he faced when he kneeled for a month before being accepted as a disciple!

Gu Buwei said lightly, “Mistress, don’t have to worry. In this realm, there is still the existence of the Gender Transformation Method. I think Master should know about this too.”

Hearing that, Qi Hui immediately threw a hopeful glance at her husband, Shang Ruoyu.

Shang Ruoyu sighed internally, wondering how many more difficulties he would have to suffer for the sake of his little sister-in-law.

It was no wonder that his elder brother chose to cut off all social relations. He even treated his own brothers who were all related by blood coldly.

If he found himself in a desperate situation of life-and-death, the other party would probably be indifferent and definitely would not do anything to save him.

However, as a person, emotions were a necessary spice in life.

If he lived like his elder brother, despite being proud and indifferent to everything that happened around him, his life would be empty of flavors, much like a rock.

Thinking about this, Shang Ruoyu nodded and said, “Of course, I know. The treasure that could cast Great Reversal of Heaven And Earth was from me. Now, it should be in Tian Zhu’s possession.”

“Uh... Then we should beg her at her door. I wonder if she holds a grudge against us because of what happened in the past?” Qi Hui said worriedly.

“I’m not worried about this. The treasure isn’t in Tian Zhu’s possession currently. She has long given it to the Celestial Clan Chief’s daughter in the Upper Realm, who reincarnated into a big green insect on Earth... The latter started the foundations for a clinic afterward. It was easy to deal with her as long as you pay her enough,” said Gu Buwei coldly.

The benefits he reaped from being delegated earlier could finally be showcased today.

Whenever the people from the Azure Mountain descended the mountain, they were not exactly blind, therefore they did not have to worry about being cheated by others.

“Uh, the treasure is closely related to the continuation of the Celestial Swine clan and is extremely valuable. Tian Zhu actually gave it away to someone else. It seems like I don’t understand her,” Shang Ruoyu said and shook his head.

Gu Buwei did not provide any explanations for that. The human heart was the most complicated and unpredictable.

“In this case, why don’t we look for Lady Chong and ask for her help now?” asked Qi Hui anxiously.

“Uh, Mistress, you don’t have to worry. We still have something important to do after we descend the mountain. We can only deal with Mei-er’s personal matter after completing that task. If we don’t do it properly, that brother of mine won’t spare us.” Shang Ruoyu sighed.

“Yes, it’s just that we have to leave Mei-er to suffer for a while longer in the Soul Retaining Banner,” said Qi Hui sadly.

A kind mother often raised useless sons. In this case, the eldest brother was like a father, while the eldest sister was like a mother.

Having a dependable elder sister who obeyed Qi Hui’s every whim and a dependable brother-in-law who obeyed her elder sister’s every whim, it was no wonder the legendary Qi Mei could be so domineering and cared about no one.

As the thought occurred to him, Shen Xingchen could not help but feel jealous.

In his journey, he gave up on his dignity, calculations, and humiliation. Yet, no one would be as considerate to him.

Memories were fickle things. He forgot that there was someone who made the best consideration for him like this and that he gave up.

It was his past school, Mount Indigo Monastery.
