Chapter 74: Sleeping Together



“You two, tell me what that sweet fragrance is emitting from the inside.” Elder Pao Haung raised his finger at them and demanded an explanation.

If it weren’t for that sweet fragrance that agitated his stomach in wanting some food, he wouldn’t have been scolded by Elder Jing.

Not to mention, if the sect failed to obtain anything useful in the Pagoda because of his negligence then the sect leader would definitely punish him.

Yang Wei and Lian Xinyue glanced at each other, speechless because the main culprit is right in front of him.

Although it was Yang Wei that was cooking the beggar chicken, it was due to Lian Xinyue’s insistence for another piece of chicken that caused Elder Pao Huang to resort to hunting magical beasts and cooking them.

“Hmph, why are you two staying silent?” Elder Pao Huang yelled.

He knew that sweet fragrance cannot be from Elder Jing otherwise, she wouldn’t have scolded him so harshly in front of the other disciples.

Thus, he concluded it was Yang Wei’s fault but he didn’t dare to point him out directly since his relationship with Elder Jing remains a mystery to him.

Elder Pao Huang needed to salvage his face from the previous humiliation so he could only try to be clever in his speech to get Yang Wei to admit his mistake given the fact that he is a senior and a sect elder.

Lian Xinyue tugged on Yang Wei’s sleeve and sent him a mental transmission, “Elder Pao Huang is looking at you for a scapegoat to save his face.”

Yang Wei nodded his head slightly at her kind reminder. ‘Sigh, being a junior means you must admit the mistake even if it’s not your fault.’

As Yang Wei prepared to explain that it was his fault, Elder Jing’s voice suddenly echoed to them.

“Come inside already, Yang Wei!”

Yang Wei brightened up and thanked Elder Jing inwardly as he cupped his fist and bowed slightly to Elder Pao Huang.

“Apologies Elder Pao Huang, but Elder Jing is calling for me, and delaying any further will not do us any good.” Yang Wei said.

Lian Xinyue couldn’t help but start giggling at Yang Wei’s cheeky speech that is like a slap to Elder Pao Huang’s face.

Elder Pao Huang wanted to fault Yang Wei yet Elder Jing is clearly saving Yang Wei so if he still dared to pursue this further then he would be offending Elder Jing again.

At that time, it wouldn’t be over with a simple kneeling but a sect punishment rule on him that could possibly result in him being kicked out of the sect.

Elder Pao Huang took a deep breath before showing an awkward smile, “Since Elder Jing is calling for disciple Yang Wei, then you must hurry up and not delay any further.”

Yang Wei thanked Elder Pao Huang politely and hurriedly fled the scene to meet up with Elder Jing.

Meanwhile, Lian Xinyue wasn’t a fool to stay here any further and get implicated by Elder Pao Huang’s wrath so she followed Yang Wei before Elder Pao Huang had a chance to call for her.

The disciples also tried to scurry away from facing Elder Pao Huang’s wrath but unfortunately for them, they had nowhere to escape so they were being punished thoroughly by Elder Pao Huang until he decided it was enough.

While the disciples there had to suffer despite being innocent, Lian Xinyue felt no remorse as she chased after Yang Wei.

“Wait up Yang Wei,” Lian Xinyue ran toward Yang Wei and called out to him.

Yang Wei slowed his movement down and turned around to face her. Yang Wei raised his eyebrow in confusion when she followed him behind.

“Why are you entering inside as well? Elder Jing didn’t call for you.” Yang Wei asked softly.

“You- If it weren’t for my reminder, you would have fallen into Elder Pao Huang’s trap.” Lian Xinyue scoffed and started chasing after Yang Wei with her fist-raising up high.

Yang Wei saw her angry reaction and was in disbelief by her attitude. However, he wasn’t going to stand still and let her hit him so he started running away, to his one and only savior, Elder Jing.

“Elder Jing, save me,” Yang Wei cried aloud as he went behind Elder Jing, causing Lian Xinyue to stomp the ground in anger.

“Hmph, don’t think you can hide forever behind Elder Jing.” Lian Xinyue sneered as she sat down in a lotus position and closed her eyes.

Elder Jing sighed at the immature behavior between these two as she wanted some rest as well.

Refining those pills has depleted a lot of her true qi even if she was in the Houtian realm because her cultivation is still restricted by the laws in this mysterious realm.

“You should rest well too, Yang Wei.” Elder Jing said as she laid down on the ground.

Yang Wei nodded his head as he lay down to sleep.

However, Elder Jing raised her eyebrow slightly and stared at Yang Wei.

“There are so many open spaces to sleep in so why are you laying so close to me.” Elder Jing asked.

Yang Wei smiled bitterly as he said, “I feel more comfortable sleeping next to you and I won’t have to be afraid of someone sneaking up on me.”

After all, Lian Xinyue would definitely try to get revenge on him if he was alone but if he was to be next to Elder Jing then the scenario would be different.

Lian Xinyue cannot afford to risk her life in messing with Yang Wei and disrupting Elder Jing in the meantime.

Of course, Yang Wei had other intentions besides avoiding Lian Xinyue’s retaliation but there was no reason for him to say it aloud.

Elder Jing could only sigh inwardly as she was too tired to argue with him. “You can sleep next to me but if you dare to do anything else then don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
