The Villain Has Something to Say

Chapter 47: Look Back into the Past (1)

Translator: Sissy That Walk

He was still dressed in black, but he had grown up quite a lot since the last time he saw him several years back.

As soon as Luo Jianqing reached Hao Ming Peak, he saluted his senior brother and greeted him respectfully. Seeing this, Luo Jianqing was very surprised. He sized up his junior brother who had never been acting politely, then he said with a smile: “What’s going on? Why are you being so docile today? Have you been scolded by Master Guang Lingzi?”

With a twitch of his mouth, Xie Zizhuo’s face darkened, “Master Guang didn’t scold me today.”

Luo Jianqing raised his eyebrows and said, “Really?”

Xie Zizhuo threw up his hands, “He despises me every day, okay?”

Luo Jianqing, “....”

They talked while walking towards Xie’s house. There were nearly a hundred outer disciples and dozens of inner disciples in Hao Ming Peak. Many junior brothers and sisters greeted them on their way up. By the time they arrived the house of Xie, Luo Jianqing had roughly figured out the situation.

Five years ago, when Li Xiuchen came back from Liu Yan Valley, Sir Guang Lingzi met him in person.

Although Sir Guang Lingzi didn’t understand how this kid without any spiritual bones at Level 4 of Qi Refining could obtain so many Yan Fruits, Li Xiuchen had nonetheless made both Tai Hua Mountain and himself look good. Therefore, he ignored Xie Zizhuo’s complains and reinstated Li Xiuchen’s position back to an inner disciple and scolded Xie, “You are their senior brother. How could you be so mean to your junior brothers? I have asked Master Wang to heal him. When he recovers, you would be his instructor. Understand?”

Xie Zizhuo was speechless.

Fortunately, Li Xiuchen did not like Xie Zizhuo either, so he seldomly went to check on Xie. Otherwise, Luo Jianqing had no doubt that his fourth junior brother would be driven crazy by Li Xiuchen and end up killing him.

Xie Zizhuo said, “I don’t understand. I don’t understand it! I’ve never seen a cultivator without spiritual bones could reach Level 9 of Qi Refining in just seven years! He was already a step away from reaching Foundation Establishment! It doesn’t make sense! I was only an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator at his age, and I was nowhere near reaching the Middle Stage, but he is now already infinitely close to breaking through to the Foundation Establishment!”

With a stern expression, Luo Jianqing said, “Maybe we are wrong. Maybe he is a one-in-the-million genius. Even without spiritual bones, he could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to accelerate his cultivation?”

Xie Zizhuo, “......”

After a while, Xi Zizhuo lowered his voice and whispered, “You seem to have changed your opinion on Li Xiuchen ever since the Sects’ competition. Earlier on, I thought we both don’t like people who only rely on sheer luck to do things, but it seems.... you don’t think that way....”

Upon hearing that, Luo Jianqing halted his steps suddenly and Xie Zizhuo looked back at him.

Luo Jianqing smiled causally with his black hair fluttering in the wind and said with a gentle voice, yet his words were chilling as hell, “What makes you think that I have a good opinion of that arrogant, stupid, disrespectful brat?”

Xie Zizhuo was dumbfounded, and after a while, he burst into laughter with his hands covering his belly.

After entering Xie Zizhuo’s room, Luo Jianqing briefly recounted what had happened to him in the past few years and he also mentioned a thing or two about Mo Qiu. Xie Zizhuo slightly nodded his head and filled him in on the things happened in Tai Hua Mountain when he was not around. In the end, he asked out of curiosity, “Shouldn’t you go ask Second Brother about this? He was much more familiar with Tai Hua Mountain. If you ask him, he would tell you everything he knows.”

Luo Jianqing was touching the tea cup. Hearing what he said, he stopped and looked up at him, “Second Brother was busy with his cultivation, so I came to you instead.”

Xie Zizhuo: “...In fact, I am also very busy with my cultivation.”

Luo smiled and said nothing.

When Luo was about to leave, Xie Zizhuo said seriously: “The competition will be held in a year and a half, and although Li Xiuchen may not have broken through the Qi Refining stage by then, as a Level-9 Qi Refining cultivator, there is still a high possibility that he will win anyway. I am frustrated whenever I think about it. With a solemn face, Luo replied, “You are bigger than this.”

Xie Zizhuo twitched his mouth and said, “Well, well, well. I will not bother with this ridiculous guy any more. Let’s talk about Junior Sister. She has been fond of you for so many years. You are the only one she loves, and if you can’t be together in the future... I can’t even imagine what that would be like.

The smile on his face gradually faded away. After a while, he sighed and said, “I will go to talk with Junior Sister again.”

They said goodbye at Hao Ming Peak.

Luo Jianqing did not stop his steps but flew straight towards Qing Lan Peak. Qing Lan Peak was known for its practice in alchemy and had a lot of female disciples on the mountain. As soon as Luo Jianqing arrived at Qing Lan Peak, a female disciple exclaimed, “Senior Brother is here. Senior Sister must be in a good mood today seeing you here. Go tell her quickly.”

Luo Jianqing put on a bitter smile.

After a short while, Mu Tianxin showed up in front of Luo wearing red clothes.

The moment Mu approached Luo, she directly stuffed several jade bottles into his arms and complained, “Why didn’t you give me a heads-up when you left three months ago? I heard from Master that you had gone back to Yu Xiao Peak when I came back from gathering herbs for you. You were heavily wounded, and these elixirs are refined in the past few months by me. They are not as effective as those produced by Masters and Elders, they nonetheless could help you strengthen your body. I was planning to send these over to you in a couple of days.

Luo was in a hurry last time when he came to Qing Lan Peak and back then he was busy dealing with Xuan Lingzi, so he didn’t spend much time with Mu Tianxin. This time, when he looked down at his Junior Sister, he was surprised to find that she had put down her hair which was always tied up into two ponytails.

Black long hair was fluttering in the wind with setting sun illuminating on her bright and charming face, which seemed so pretty and attractive. No one could deny that among the Seven Sons of Tai Hua, Mu Tianxin was the dream girl of many senior and junior brothers throughout the Tai Hua Mountain.

Although Mu Tianxin was domineering with a fiery temper, she was nonetheless a cute little girl compared to that cold Third Sister Wei Qiongyin and her beauty had swept many disciples off their feet.

At the same time in his previous life, Luo Jianqing didn’t meet his Junior Sister.

She had been training in seclusion for ten years. She got in when she was still an early-stage Gold Core cultivator and when she came out, she had become a middle-stage Gold Core cultivator.

Since she came out, she had never dressed herself in red again, instead she would wear a black robe every day. She seldom smiled and got far away from Luo Jianqing gradually. It was not until she was rescued by Li Xiuchen several times back when they finally began to date, but she didn’t smile and talk as much as before.

Noticing that Luo’s eyes was fixing on her, Mu Tianxin’s touched her hair with fingers and kept fiddling with the hair to cover the excitement in her heart. She whispered, “Fourth brother said that girls should be gentle and most men like that. Perhaps.... you like that type of girl too?”

“No.” Luo Jianqing smiled. He reached out and took out two small and delicate miniate ribbons.

When he waved the ribbons in the air, they suddenly took away the color of the misty sky and burst into a light like crystal. Seeing that, Mu Tianxin immediately snatched them away.

When she got the ribbons, Mu Tianxin suddenly felt wrong about it, so she quickly stuffed them back into Luo Jianqing’s hands, “I just... I didn’t mean to do that, I am not a willful person.”

Luo Jianqing smiled: “My little sister, even if you meant to do that, no one would say a word about it.”

While he was talking, Luo Jianqing walked towards the back of Mu Tianxin, and rolled up the hair she put down. He gently put the black hair on his palm, combed it carefully, and then tied up the hair with the ribbons. After he finished one side, he continued to tie up the other one. Luo Jianqing was not good at it, but the magnificent ribbons were enough to make up for his lack of skills, and they totally brought out the gorgeousness and beauty of Mu Tianxin.

Mu Tianxin touched the two ribbons and she couldn’t help but ask, “Do you really like me in this way”

The smile on Luo’s face gradually faded away and he replied with a serious face, “You will always be my Junior Sister.”

Hearing that, Mu Tianxin was struck dumb.
