Chapter 107

~8 min read 1,532 words

The banquet ended late at night, and the three people from the Dongyang Sect went to the guest courtyard to rest. They would wait on Mount Shenwu for Su Wuniang's reply, or rather, for the Danxia Sect's reply to this matter.

The Qingyu Sect is too strong now. In the entire Jingxiang region, they are the only ones. Although the Dongyang Sect, the Zhanglong Sect, and the Li family of Mount Tianmu are not afraid when they join forces, it is best not to provoke a war. Around Jingxiang, only the Danxia Sect, one of the top ten sects in the world, has the prestige and ability to mediate.

After returning to the Qingyu Furong Garden with Su Wuniang, Liu Xiaolou specifically asked his own wife: "When will Wuniang return after going to the sect tomorrow?"

Su Wuniang said lightly: "Short as two or three days, long as seven or eight days, it's hard to say. Moreover, in the Cave Heaven, time is different from the outside world, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. If it's slow, it might not even be half a month."

Liu Xiaolou had also heard from his teacher that the Cave Heaven is different from the outside world, like a bubble in the water, sandwiched between heaven and earth. In the Cave Heaven, the spiritual power is three times richer than in any blessed land in the world, and spirit stones are almost useless. Precisely because of such rich spiritual power, it leads to the distortion of time and direction, which is different from the outside world.

So Liu Xiaolou began his first leave since living with the Su family: "Young Lady, please allow me to report. I have been living with the Su family for a month, and I haven't reported to my teacher at his grave yet. I want to take advantage of your trip to the Cave Heaven to return to Mount Wulong to visit my relatives and comfort my teacher's life."

Su Wuniang was stunned and immediately said: "Naturally, you can, I..."

Logically, she was Liu Xiaolou's wife and should also go to Mount Wulong to pay her respects, but this marriage between her and Liu Xiaolou, strictly speaking, wasn't even a son-in-law living with his wife's family, at most it was called a "temporary son-in-law," or "agreement son-in-law." Whether she should go was really a question.

So she changed her words: "I have to go to the Cave Heaven. When I have time, I will go to visit your teacher. This time, you should go back by yourself first."

Liu Xiaolou said: "I will try my best to return within a month."

Su Wuniang thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter if it's a few days more, but you need to return before the twentieth of May. The Danxia Sect is holding a millennium ceremony, and all the children of the Su family must go."

Liu Xiaolou smiled: "For such a grand event, I should naturally attend."

Su Wuniang said again: "Let Susu go back with you?"

Liu Xiaolou said: "The conditions on Mount Wulong are simple. Susu has already served me with all her heart for a month, I can't bear to let her suffer again. Let her relax, we'll talk about it later."

Su Wuniang didn't care about this, or rather, she didn't care about anything related to Liu Xiaolou at all: "As you wish. But there is one condition: when you are out, you must not disgrace the reputation of my Su family."

The couple had nothing more to say, parted ways, Su Wuniang went to the front building, and Liu Xiaolou returned to Yiling Hall.

After returning, he gave Susu a few simple instructions. Susu was very reluctant and took the initiative to volunteer, wanting to accompany Liu Xiaolou to suffer.

Liu Xiaolou naturally hoped to pull her to complete his unfinished wish and hurry to study the Yin-Yang Scripture, but this trip had many unspeakable secrets that needed to be handled, so he couldn't let Susu follow. After comforting her with kind words, he made Susu give up the idea.

He really didn't want to be with the three people from the Dongyang Sect, especially Han Wuwang. Not recognizing him now didn't mean he wouldn't recognize him in the future. Staying at Mount Shenwu for even a moment meant risk. Therefore, he didn't want to delay for even a moment and left Mount Shenwu overnight.

More importantly, the Dongyang Sect held clues to the Hou Sheng case. He had to find the clues before they reconciled with the Qingyu Sect. This clue was the female entertainer Su Zhenjiu mentioned. If Liu Xiaolou didn't guess wrong, the possibility of it being Yong E was very high.

The Qingyu Sect rebuilt the Yueyang Square market, started construction, and moved in a large number of outer-sect members and shops. They also opened two entertainment houses, one named Hongyu and one named Luyi, where the one hosted by Sister Qing was the Luyi House. The Luyi House had recruited a new female entertainer, whose appearance was ordinary, but she was good at playing the pipa. The key was that the time he saw Hou Sheng, Hou Sheng specifically called for Yong E's game!

Because this Yong E was an ordinary woman without any cultivation, when Hou Sheng asked Yong E to play the piano that day, they were not close, and the purpose was to let the piano sound further cover their already small conversation. So Liu Xiaolou had never taken Yong E to heart. Who could have thought that the clue mentioned by the Dongyang Sect would be Yong E in the Luyi House?

Liu Xiaolou traveled day and night, heading straight for Yueyang Square!

From Mount Shenwu to Yueyang Square, a distance of more than three hundred li, Liu Xiaolou rushed with all his might and arrived at noon the next day. He only rested briefly twice on the way. When he arrived, his life was almost run out. It was also because his cultivation had greatly improved, otherwise he would not have been able to arrive no matter what.

The noon at Luyi House was very deserted, with no popularity. Looking into the half-open gate, it was also cold and clear.

Liu Xiaolou hesitated for a long time, but still chose to go around to the back and climb over the wall. No matter when, he couldn't be careless, and climbing over the wall was always safer.

He was an old guest here, having lived here for several days last year, so he was familiar with everything and soon found the courtyard where Sister Qing lived.

The side room was tightly closed and locked. This was the room he lived in at the time, while the main room emitted a light and rhythmic breathing. Liu Xiaolou pushed the door and entered, and sure enough, he saw Sister Qing sleeping soundly on the bed.

Sister Qing half-exposed her breasts, and the collarbone on her neck jumped slightly with her breathing. The makeup on her face was washed away, and without the gorgeous beauty of heavy ink and color, she had a bit more fresh and natural taste.

It seemed like a neighbor's sister.

Liu Xiaolou sat by the bed, quietly watching Sister Qing, his thoughts wandering for a while. Was it because he was married? Why did he suddenly feel that Sister Qing on the bed was very attractive?

A young man doesn't know the goodness of a sister, but after marriage, a sister is a treasure!

Sister Qing was, after all, a martial artist who had practiced, having opened the Foot Shaoyin Meridian and half of the Foot Taiyang Meridian. Liu Xiaolou sat beside her, and it was impossible for her not to perceive anything. Her eyelids jumped slightly for a moment, and she woke up suddenly. Her wrist turned, and she touched a short blade from under the pillow, stabbing straight at Liu Xiaolou's abdomen.

Liu Xiaolou's two fingers appeared on the short blade, clamping the tip of the blade, and the short blade couldn't be pushed forward by even half a point.

Sister Qing blinked, let go of the short blade, her upper body sprang up, and her arms hugged Liu Xiaolou tightly: "Injustice, you were willing to come back to see me!"

Liu Xiaolou smiled and patted her back: "Didn't I come back?"

Sister Qing suddenly remembered something, hid into the bed, curled up in the quilt and shouted: "Get out, get out!"

Liu Xiaolou was stunned: "What are you doing?"

Sister Qing covered her face with the quilt and said: "No makeup, no washing, I'm ugly, I smell, I can't be seen, get out!"

Liu Xiaolou whispered: "Keep your voice down, don't let anyone know I'm here."

Sister Qing then revealed one eye: "What trouble did you get into again? Are you here to avoid the wind? Don't worry, just stay here steadily."

Liu Xiaolou said: "Ask you about someone, that Yong E, the one who can play the pipa, is she still in the house?"

Sister Qing said: "She resigned last month."
