Chapter 112: Dao Yi Sect, Refreshed

The owner is actually standing right there; Chen Mu saying this naturally wants to save Xiao Bai's life—after all, fighting is better than that thing, right.

But Xiao Bai responded with contempt, even a hint of mockery, glanced at Chen Mu, then let out a strange 'ge' cry, and turned away, ignoring him.

Seeing this, Chen Mu's mouth twitched. 'You idiot, I'm trying to save you,' he thought. 'You don't even look at the situation—you've got bugs in your brain, not caring about anything.'

As expected, the next second, Wang Tieshu's loud, robust voice rang out, filled with anger.

"You beast, how dare you do this? Release my Hongbao, or I'll kill you."

"What the heck? Hongbao?"

Hearing Wang Tieshu's loud shout, Chen Mu was dumbfounded. 'What do you call this black-crowned immortal crane?' he thought. 'Are you serious?'

Besides, does our Peak Master know you gave this black-crowned immortal crane such a name?

Hong Zun naturally didn't know, and Chen Mu even less so; Wang Tieshu's anger stems from the fact that this black-crowned immortal crane was a gift Hong Zun gave him, his only present.

I remember it was a rainy night on the 18th day of the 7th month, 263 years ago.

Wang Tieshu went up Divine Sword Peak late at night and met Hong Zun.

"What are you here for?"

Seeing herself, Hong Zun's feelings could not be restrained; Wang Tieshu could sense this—she did not want Hong Zun to toil for her any longer, she wished to stay by his side.

But in the end, that stubborn donkey still didn't agree, yet he also gave her a black-crowned immortal crane—this became their love token.

"Oh no, Hong Brother, I twisted my ankle and can't go back."

"Take this black-crowned immortal crane, hurry and go—really."

She still remembers the deep affection when Hong Zun gave her the black-crowned immortal crane; the memory remains fresh.

But now, her and Hong Brother's love token has been defiled by a beast.

Kill, must kill; only with this beast's blood can Hongbao's innocence be washed clean.

"Die."

Seeing Wang Tieshu about to strike, Chen Mu's heart leapt; without thinking further, he instinctively stepped in front of Xiao Bai and shouted loudly.

"Madam, wait—Xiao Bai is the immortal crane raised by the Peak Master."

Indeed, as soon as those words were spoken, Wang Tieshu's hand stopped moving.

"You say this beast is raised by Hong Brother?"

"Yes, Madam, don't you remember the Peak Master has a red-crowned immortal crane? Xiao Bai is its offspring."

Wang Tieshu naturally knew of Hong Zun's red-crowned immortal crane, but she hadn't expected Xiao Bai to be its bloodline—still, what does it matter?

"Even if this beast is its bloodline, it must die today—it has defiled my and Hong Brother's pure love."

Damn it, Chen Mu was about to go crazy, his thoughts racing, and he hurriedly said.

"Madam, Xiao Bai was originally raised by the Peak Master himself; now, Xiao Bai and your Hong...... Hongbao have formed a good match—doesn't this foretell that you and the Peak Master will soon achieve union, that lovers will finally be together?"

Chen Mu swore that at this moment his brain cells were absolutely active to the extreme.

He even admired himself for being able to come up with such an excuse in such a short time, though he didn't know if it would work.

After waiting a while with no reply from Wang Tieshu, behind him Xiao Bai let out a strange 'ge' cry and finished.

As for Hongbao, it lay powerless on the ground, two lines of humiliating tears streaming from its eyes.

"Ge ge ge............"

Perhaps feeling refreshed, Xiao Bai hopped off Hongbao, flapped its wings excitedly, and walked with a swagger as if it owned the place.

At this moment, Chen Mu really felt the urge to kill the beast, but thinking that it is Junior Brother Changqing's mount, he forced himself to suppress his anger.

I'm trying to save you—can't you just stop courting death?

He looked anxiously at Wang Tieshu; at a glance, Chen Mu was speechless—what's going on now?

Her face flushed red, she played with two thick braids like a lovestruck maiden, twisting and turning there alone.

"Madam, are you all right?"

"Madam.........."

"Madam..........."

After calling three times in a row, Wang Tieshu finally came to her senses, her eyes full of little stars.

"Child, I think you're right—Xiao Bai also counts as Hong Brother's immortal crane, so it being with Hongbao is a match made in heaven."

Hearing that, Chen Mu was speechless but finally breathed a sigh of relief; however, Hongbao lying on the ground cried even more bitterly.

"What's a match made in heaven? You don't know how beastly this guy is—worse than a beast."

From when this animal arrived at Blacksmith Valley Spirit Beast Garden, at most five days have passed, and it has already been done over fifty times—about once every Shíchén.

At this moment, Hongbao felt its master no longer loved it.

Seeing Wang Tieshu not pursuing the matter, Chen Mu quickly summoned Xiao Bai to prepare to leave, but just before departing, Xiao Bai still didn't forget Hongbao, came before it, and let out a few 'ge ge ge' cries, not knowing what it was saying.

Seeing this, Chen Mu angrily kicked out.

"You're leaving already, damn it, when will this end?"

But the next second, Xiao Bai also kicked out, sending Chen Mu flying straight up.

"Xiao Bai, I...... you damned old man."

"Ge ge."

After provoking with two calls, it then leisurely greeted Hongbao, as if saying they'd meet again, before spreading its wings and flying off.

As for Wang Tieshu, she stood nearby, her eyes full of light, her mind filled with images of her and Hong Zun holding hands traveling everywhere, with Hongbao and Xiao Bai flanking her left and right.

"How happy."

She laughed shyly, paying no heed to the utterly wronged Hongbao beside her.

"Ah-choo.........."

At the Divine Sword Peak of Dao Yi Sect, Hong Zun lay idle in the courtyard, suddenly sneezed.

Who's thinking of me?

He rubbed his nose, took a sip of wine, and immediately said with a face of utter hopelessness.

Alas, I can't go on living like this.

Only a few days have passed, and Hong Zun really can't bear it anymore; on the contrary, the other peak disciples of the Dao Yi Sect have been living very comfortably these past few days.

Especially the Blood Blade Peak and the Overlord Spear Peak, the two peaks closest to Divine Sword Peak.

The smile on their faces never ceased; every day they woke up feeling gleeful.

Another day without any Shénjiàn Fēng Dìzǐ.

Yeah, we can't even hear those bone-chilling battle sounds in the mornings anymore.

Finally, things have returned to peace.

Not only that, missions have become much easier to take.

Indeed, days without Divine Sword Peak are the good days.

After the Shénjiàn Fēng Dìzǐ left, the Faction: Mission Hall reopened its doors, as if timed perfectly; just as the Shénjiàn Fēng Dìzǐ stepped out, the Faction: Mission Hall opened its doors.

Moreover, regarding the demonic horses of the horse farm, according to some disciples, on the day the Shénjiàn Fēng Dìzǐ left, the horse farm witnessed a scene of all horses neighing in unison.

The demonic horses all let out joyful cries, frolicking and galloping wildly in the horse farm; though they are demonic beasts, the smiles on their faces are absolutely no less than those of the peak disciples.
