Chapter 3149

"Old Ancestor, may I listen to the voice?"

Since the line is already English with translation note, I'll just output the translation they gave: "Old Ancestor, may I listen to the voice?" but we need to keep the quotes? The line includes quotes inside. I'll output: "Old Ancestor, may I listen to the voice?" (without the Translation: prefix). However to be safe, I'll output exactly the translation they gave: "Old Ancestor, may I listen to the voice?" (with quotes). Let's do: 【3】 "Old Ancestor, may I listen to the voice?"

"I wanted to say this might be a misunderstanding, but seeing the Third Elder grit his teeth and ask, Miao Cuihua sighed helplessly."

Translation: "I originally wanted to say that this matter might be a misunderstanding, but seeing the Third Elder grit his teeth and ask, Miao Cuihua helplessly sighed." Need to keep meaning. Let's translate: "I originally wanted to say this matter might be a misunderstanding, but seeing the Third Elder grit his teeth and ask, Miao Cuihua helplessly sighed." Keep punctuation.

"Forget it; if this isn't cleared up, your Dao heart will soon become unstable."

"Never mind; if this isn't cleared up, your Dao heart will soon become unstable."

"Seeing the Third Elder like this, if there's no answer to this matter, she fears she'll never get over it in her lifetime."

"Looking at the Third Elder like this, if this matter has no answer, she fears she'll never be able to move past it in her lifetime."

"Immediately, Miao Cuihua cast the spell again, and a sound soon came from the water mirror."

Translation: "Immediately, Miao Cuihua cast the spell again, and soon a voice came from the water mirror."

"At that moment, within the mirror, Wu Shou wore a smile of his wish fulfilled."

Translation: "At this moment, within the mirror surface, Wu Shou spoke with a smile of his wish fulfilled."

"\"Then I'll await Grand Elder Wang; I'll surely sweep the mat to welcome you when the time comes. \""

Translation: "Then I will await Grand Elder Wang; when the time comes, I will surely sweep the mat to welcome him."

"\"Daoist Wu, you're too polite; this old one will definitely come. \""

Translation: "Dao friend Wu, you're too polite; this old one will certainly come."

"Huh???"

Translation: "Huh???" Keep the question marks.

"I thought hearing the voice would clear up the misunderstanding, but what is this maneuver? The Third Elder's teeth are already grinding."

"I thought hearing the voice would dispel the misunderstanding, but what is this? The Third Elder's teeth are already grinding."

I even swept the mat to welcome you, Wu Shou—I'll fight you to the death.

Translation: "Still sweeping the mat to welcome, Wu Shou, I'll fight you to the death."

"Seeing this, Miao Qianqian quickly spoke up to advise."

Translation: "Seeing this, Miao Qianqian hastily spoke up to advise."

"\"Third Elder, maybe there's a misunderstanding, but this can't prove anything. \""

Translation: "Third Elder, perhaps there's a misunderstanding; this also can't prove anything."

"That's not wrong; although there's some ambiguity, it indeed can't prove anything. Even if we say it's just a simple farewell between fellow cultivators, there's nothing wrong with that."

Translation: "That's not wrong; although there's some ambiguity, it indeed can't prove anything—even if we say it's just a simple farewell between fellow cultivators, there's nothing wrong with that."

"But just as Miao Qianqian finished speaking, we saw Wu Shou, who had ended the call in the mirror, throw a punch alone, in a celebratory manner, and shout."

Translation: "But just as Miao Qianqian finished speaking, in the mirror we saw Wu Shou, after ending the call, alone throwing a punch, in a celebratory posture, shouting."

"\"Good, finally settled. \""

Translation: "Good, finally got it settled."

"Huh???"

Translation: "Huh???"

"\"What did you settle? I'm just helping you smooth things over. \" Upon hearing this, Miao Qianqian went numb."

Translation: "What have you settled? I was just helping you smooth things over; hearing this, Miao Qianqian went numb."

"\"No, you damn it—just say goodbye properly, don't talk nonsense. What do you mean 'settled'? \""

Translation: "No, you damn well just say goodbye properly, don't talk nonsense—what does 'settled' even mean?"

"Glancing secretly at the Third Elder, indeed his face had turned completely black, as black as a pot bottom, full of killing aura."

Translation: "She furtively glanced at the Third Elder; sure enough, his face had turned completely black, black as a pot bottom, his whole body emanating killing intent."

"\"Good, good, good—indeed a faithless man, you accept anyone who comes, right? You're not picky, right? \""

Translation: "Good, good, good—indeed a faithless man, you accept anyone who comes, you're not picky, right?"

"Seeing the Third Elder's murderous look, Miao Qianqian shrank her neck, looking helplessly at Miao Cuihua."

Translation: "Seeing the Third Elder's murderous look, Miao Qianqian shrank her neck, looking at Miao Cuihua with a helpless expression."

"Seeing this, Miao Cuihua also had a headache, but she calmly said:"

Translation: "Seeing this, Miao Cuihua also had a headache, but still said lightly."

"\"Don't entertain foolish thoughts; if you have doubts, just ask directly. \""

Translation: "Don't entertain idle thoughts; if you have doubts, just ask directly."

"Upon hearing Miao Cuihua's words, the Third Elder gritted his teeth and nodded."

Translation: "Hearing Miao Cuihua's words, the Third Elder gritted his teeth and nodded."

"\"Thank you, Old Ancestor's teachings; this disciple will now contact Grand Elder Wang. \""

Translation: "Thank you for your guidance, Old Ancestor; this disciple will now contact Grand Elder Wang."

"When saying the words 'Grand Elder Wang', the Third Elder gritted his teeth heavily."

Translation: "When saying those four words 'Grand Elder Wang', the Third Elder bit down hard."

"Now that she can't contact Wu Shou, that faithless man, she can only contact the other party involved."

Translation: "Now she can't get in touch with Wu Shou, that faithless man, so she can only contact the other party involved."

"Saying that, she saw the Third Elder take out the projection disc, and in front of Miao Cuihua and her grandson, he contacted Grand Elder Wang."

Translation: "Saying this, we saw the Third Elder take out the Xiǎnyǐng zhèn pán, and in front of Miao Cuihua and her grandchild, he contacted Grand Elder Wang."

"The formation was quickly connected, and Grand Elder Wang's aged appearance appeared on the formation's light curtain."

Translation: "The formation was quickly connected, and Grand Elder Wang's aged appearance appeared on the formation light curtain."

"Upon connection, Grand Elder Wang naturally performed a respectful salute, just as the Third Elder had expected; even in terms of status and rank, this old lady is far inferior to her."

Translation: "After the formation connected, Grand Elder Wang naturally performed a respectful salute, just as the Third Elder had thought; even in terms of status, this old hag is far inferior to her."

"\"You surnamed Wu, you're damn blind! \""

Translation: "You surnamed Wu, you're damn blind."

"However, the Third Elder didn't erupt directly; instead, he spoke while suppressing his anger."

Translation: "However, the Third Elder didn't erupt outright now, but instead suppressed his anger and said."

"\"Daoist Wang, I haven't been able to contact Wu Shou; have you ever contacted him? \""

Translation: "Dao friend Wang, I can't get in touch with Wu Shou; I don't know if you've ever contacted him."

"Originally, if Grand Elder Wang answered truthfully, all doubts would be readily resolved."

Translation: "Originally, if Grand Elder Wang answered truthfully, all doubts would be readily resolved."

"Frankly, Miao Qianqian thinks this is impossible; which man would pass up a mature, charming Third Elder to choose an aged, thin Grand Elder Wang?"

Translation: "Anyway, Miao Qianqian thinks this is impossible—what man would pass up the mature, charming Third Elder to choose a withered, old Grand Elder Wang?"

"Surely they were talking about other matters; after all, as the Grand Elders of their respective sects, they have sect affairs to liaison, which is quite normal."

Translation: "Before, they were surely talking about other matters; after all, as Grand Elders of their respective sects, handling sect affairs is perfectly normal."

"But the next second,

Translation: "But the next second, after Grand Elder Wang slightly spaced out, his answer left Miao Qianqian completely numb."

All I saw was Elder Wang shaking his head and replying.

Translation: "We saw Grand Elder Wang shake his head and reply."

We've never been in contact.

Translation: "Never contacted him before."

Huh???

Translation: "Huh???"

Seeing Elder Wang obviously feeling guilty, Miao Qianqian and Miao Cuihua both felt their heads buzzing.

Translation: "Looking at the obviously somewhat guilty Grand Elder Wang, both Miao Qianqian and Miao Cuihua felt only a buzzing in their heads."

We just saw you put up the formation, and now you're turning around and denying it?

Translation: "We just saw you hang up the formation, and now you turn around and deny it?"

It's strange, really strange. Immediately, even Miao Qianqian and her grandmother Miao Cuihua had a creepy guess pop into their minds.

Translation: "Strange, indeed too strange; immediately, even Miao Qianqian and Miao Cuihua, grandmother and granddaughter, had a scalp-tingling guess pop into their minds."

Could these two really be in trouble? Otherwise there's no need to hide it—if you're fine, who are you deceiving? You can't possibly be a natural-born liar.

Translation: "Could those two really be up to something? Otherwise there's no need to hide it—if you're innocent, who are you deceiving? It's impossible you're a born liar."

As for the Third Elder, he was so angry he laughed, chuckling.

Translation: "As for the Third Elder, he was so angry he laughed bitterly, hehe."

No contact—could Elder Wang be forgetting things, as important people often do?

Translation: "No contact—could Grand Elder Wang be a person of high status who forgets things, having forgotten?"

Fellow Daoist, you're joking—people of our cultivation level can't be forgetful; indeed we have had no contact.

Translation: "Dao friend, you're joking; with our cultivation level, how could we be forgetful? Indeed, we haven't contacted each other."

Okay, okay, okay.

Translation: "Good, good, good."

That Daoist, I still have things to do here, so I won't chat further.

Translation: "That dao friend, I still have matters here, so I won't chat further."

The Third Elder still wanted to speak, but Elder Wang didn't give him a chance, casually making an excuse and slipping away.

Translation: "The Third Elder still wanted to speak, but Grand Elder Wang gave no chance, casually found an excuse and slipped away."

It's almost as if the word "guilty" were written on his face—obviously he has a guilty conscience.

Translation: "He was practically writing 'guilty' on his face—obviously he has something to hide."

In fact, Elder Wang really does have a guilty conscience; she normally wouldn't lie, and after so many years of cultivation that's just her nature.

Translation: "In fact, Grand Elder Wang truly has something to hide; she normally wouldn't deceive people, and after so many years of cultivation that's just her nature."

The reason she's deceiving the Third Elder is none other than Wu Shou's instructions.

Translation: "The reason she deceives the Third Elder is not because of Wu Shou's instructions."

The matter of selecting the best elder must not be leaked in advance; even if his senior brother Qi Xiong asks, she cannot tell.

Translation: "The matter of selecting the best Grand Elder must not be leaked beforehand; even if his senior brother Qi Xiong asks, it cannot be said."

Not even her own beloved senior brother can be told, let alone you, the Third Elder of the Wu Shen Palace—so Elder Wang deliberately lied.

Translation: "Not even her own sect's Senior Brother can be told, let alone you, Third Elder of the Wushen Palace; thus Grand Elder Wang deliberately lied."

Watching the other party hastily hang up the formation, the Third Elder coldly chuckled and muttered.

Translation: "Watching the other party hastily hang up the formation, the Third Elder coldly chuckled and murmured."

Okay, okay, okay—indeed you have a guilty conscience, Wu Shou, Wu Shou, do you still remember what I told you back then?

Translation: "Good, good, good—indeed you have something to hide, Wu Shou, Wu Shou, do you still remember what I told you back then?"

If I give my heart to someone, it's for life; if we can't be Dao partners in life, then in death we'll be a ghostly couple.

Translation: "If I give my heart to someone, it's for life; if we can't be Dao partners in this life, then in death we'll be a pair of ghost spouses."

Speaking, the Third Elder, somewhat absent-minded, bowed to Miao Cuihua and said.

Thank you, Ancestor, disciple takes his leave.

After saying that, he intended to leave; seeing this, Miao Cuihua spoke up.

Where are you going?

Dao One Immortal Sect.

Sigh, forget it, I'll go with you.

It's obvious the Third Elder is going to the Dao One Immortal Sect to risk his life; Miao Cuihua sighed.

Just as the words fell, Miao Qianqian also raised her hand and said.

I also want to go.

Nonsense, what are you going there for?

Ancestor, you think I don't know? You're not just going to eat.

Nonsense, I'm going to protect her, lest she go alive and return dead.

Tch, I don't believe you; anyway I'm going.

Protecting the Third Elder is true, but that's not the main reason; the real reason is to conveniently get a meal.

Anyway, with her there, the Third Elder won't cause trouble, and the Dao One Immortal Sect won't go too far.

After all, you, Wu Shou, like the matter of the Grand Elder of Tianmai Mountain, and you probably don't want people to know.

That Grand Elder Wang is someone with descendants' bloodline; although his dao partner is gone, if you do this, the Dao One Immortal Sect will lose face.

The two elders were arguing there, but instead the Third Elder was left aside, ignored.

In the end, Miao Cuihua helplessly nodded.

You may go, but don't act recklessly.

Okay, I will definitely not act recklessly.

Immediately, Miao Cuihua, Miao Qianqian, and the Third Elder, a group of three, set off that day, leaving the sect and heading toward the Dao One Immortal Sect.

At the same time, inside the main hall of the Dao One Immortal Sect, Qi Xiong glared angrily at the crowd below, spittle flying as he spoke.

I'm not worthy to be the best sect master? I'm not worthy? What the hell is your conscience, eaten by a dog? If I, Qi Xiong, am not worthy, who else in the human race is?
