l cultivation with her""Double majoring is out of the question. I just think that since she's so sexually promiscuous, why are there so many ghosts following her and refusing to move on""Well, she's.....At the top of the visiting card, a name was written in neat script: Xiao Shanming.
Having previously bullied his senior brother, Master Zong Dao, Shen Qingrui now finds himself facing a self-proclaimed magic exorcist who arrives at his door with a visiting card.
He must be here for a good time, or to get back that bronze Buddha amulet.
I've never heard of this lineage before, they might be some reclusive master. I should definitely ask them more about it.
I beckoned the disciple waiting at the door with a wave of my hand and whispered, “Go to the back and inform Shen Qingrui that the younger brother of Master Zong has come to deliver a visiting card.”
The disciple took my order and went to the back. I then had Xiao Shanhming summoned.
I had just seen him not long ago, he was about my age. At this moment, he looked around with admiration in his eyes.
I stood up in the main hall and waited. As soon as he came in, he bowed and said, "Greetings, master."
“Don't be so polite We've just met.” I laughed.
He smiled foolishly upon hearing this, scratching his head and saying, "I didn't know you before, so I made a fool of myself. Please don't laugh at me."
"What's so funny... I saw you trying to help people, why are you laughing at yourself"
"Alas... I'm not skilled enough, not skilled enough, bringing shame to the sect..." He said awkwardly.
I asked him to sit down and have some tea. After a few pleasantries, Xiao Shanming and I, both of whom are not very smooth talkers, quickly got to the point.
“That… I received a call from my senior brother…” He took out his phone and said somewhat awkwardly, “My senior brother said that on his way back to the mountain to recuperate, he met disciples of your esteemed family and there was some misunderstanding… He was also escorting an old man whose mind had been bewitched by demons at the time, and he didn't notice his important belongings… I don’t know if it was picked up by a disciple of your esteemed family, so I came to ask.”
I wanted to ask for more information, so instead of directly saying Shen Qingrui's name, I followed the natural flow of conversation and asked, "That...what was the disciple's name"
"Ah…Senior brother said it was a Kun Dao, surname Shen, but we didn't have time to exchange names. That Kun Dao is…too… too that…" Xiao Shanming whispered.
"Who are you talking about" I said, pretending not to know.
"My senior brother said she was too, too fierce... Originally my senior brother was well-intentioned, fearing that she, as a woman, might be injured by a ferocious beast, but...but he didn't expect...she to be this fierce..."
Xiao Shanming shrank his neck and whispered to me, "It seems like all women are quite fierce... Miss Yin Er is fierce too, my senior brother encountered this Shen Jia Kun Dao who was also fierce... It's true that women from the mountains are like tigers..."
"All the inner disciples in our family are surnamed Shen... Is there a more detailed description" I probed.
Xiao Shanming thought for a moment and said, "Senior brother said that he looked to be in his early twenties. He was also wearing high heels while chasing the monster. Seeing her like this, Senior brother was afraid that she would be retaliated by the monster, so he made a move. Unexpectedly, he provoked a feud..."
I hastily said, "There's no enmity, just a slight misunderstanding. Your sect seems to not be active within the circle, so there was no communication between us. Now that we've met, what animosity is there Let's just clear things up."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Xiao Shanming nodded. "Hmm! I've never been down the mountain before. This time, I came down the mountain to train, and someone introduced me to a group of mages called the Tongxuan Hui. But I don't know anyone... Now that I've met you, the head of the family, please give me more advice in the future."
... My experience and cultivation are barely enough to protect myself, how dare I give advice to others.
"Excuse me, where is your sect located" I asked seriously. "Could you give me a brief introduction so that I have a general understanding If I meet you again in the future, it will be easier to talk."
Xiao Shanming was quite simple. He smiled and said, "Although I'm inexperienced, I can still tell the difference between good and bad people. Miss Mu, you're not a bad person, so let me tell you..."
Originally, there were few disciples in their sect. They belonged to the kind that truly "closed the mountain and cultivated Taoism." There was a small Taoist temple hidden among the mountains in a certain province in the north, close to the capital city.
There were only the master, and two fellow disciples in the temple.
“Our sect doesn't have many disciples. We accept apprentices based on fate and aptitude. My eldest brother is the master’s younger brother and has always been by his master’s side, diligently cultivating. He is the most skilled among us... The second senior sister is a woman, so our master urged her to get married, so she's not in the Guan anymore, but she comes every month to serve the master and bring us supplies... I am the third one. My skills are not as refined, so I went down the mountain to gain experience.”
Xiao Shanming smiled and said, "My master also took in a few destined disciples, but they are not at the temple. They are all practicing at home, once every six months to see the master."
This doesn't sound like the Shen family's grand business at all. It's more of a secluded hermit style.
With such a simple master-disciple formation, it should be very straightforward.
"What did your senior brother drop" I steered the conversation along.
"Oh, my fellow disciple said it was a very dangerous thing. It's not some treasure or magical artifact. If a disciple from your household found it, please return it as soon as possible, and don't open the talisman paper. If you remove my fellow disciple's talisman, there may be unforeseen consequences!" Xiao Shanming said hurriedly.
As soon as the words left his mouth, Shen Qingrui, now in a loose Taoist robe, appeared at the door. She let out a cold snort: "What's so great about talismans~~ Does my illustrious Shen family lack a few talismans"
Shen Qingrui is truly... she just doesn't know how to temper her sharpness at all.
An ascetic practices many precepts. After being taught by Jiang Qiyun, I would rather remain silent than speak kind lies again.
So I kept silent and watched Shen Qingrui talk to Xiao Shanming herself.
"Your so-called senior brother was defeated by me. What face do you have to send a young junior like you to cause trouble" Shen Qingrui sat down in front of Xiao Shanming and looked at him arrogantly.
"You! You're talking nonsense! My master brother is so powerful, it's just that your knowledge isn't on the same level!" Xiao Shanming was agitated.
Shen Qingrui sneered, without answering.
To be honest, I have a little curiosity in my heart——Shen Qingrui is very powerful in Kun Dao. She's bold, always taking the initiative and striking first. Not only are there people in Kun Dao who aren't as good as her, but even in Gan Dao, many people are inferior to her.
But that senior brother… he showed me a move in front of me, it was obvious he had a deep foundation. I don't know how powerful he really is.
Could it be that Shen Qingrui really won the duel
“You look like a young junior as well, what makes you say I'm inexperienced!” Xiao Shanming was very unhappy. Because of his appearance and temperament, he had been mocked by Xiao Yinluo as a pretty boy and a fool. Now, he even became "inexperienced" in the mouths of fellow practitioners.
“Young I’m several years older than you, aren’t I You brat, are you not my junior Even your senior brother doesn’t dare shout at me, but you have quite the guts.” Shen Qingrui raised her chin arrogantly.
"I, I... I'm not arguing with you... I'll have my senior brother confront you. Didn't you take something that belongs to my senior brother" Xiao Shanming angrily pulled out his phone.
I watched the show silently, Xiao Shanming's phone connected quickly, pressing the speakerphone, a deep voice came from Zong Daochang: "Junior brother."
"Senior Brother! I'm in front of the head of the Shen family now, there's a Kun Dao who is so arrogant, isn't it the one you encountered What was her name" Xiao Shanming hurriedly complained.
"...Name I haven't said it, I only know her surname is Shen. We didn't exchange names." Master Zong Dao's voice brought up his image in my mind.
Tall, silent, serious and a little fierce.
Shen Qingrui let out a cold snort, unapologetically raising her voice: "My name is Shen Qingrui. I am from the Kun Dao sect. Sect Leader Zong, there's no need to exchange names. As a defeated subordinate, I have no interest in knowing your name."
Damn it... This arrogance... I can't help but get pissed off.
I feel a bit sorry for Master Zong. He met me and could still reason with me, but meeting Shen Qingrui...he really got the short end of the stick.
"Brother, isn't that her!" Xiao Shanming asked in a low voice.
"That voice... is."
"Well—" Xiao Shanming looked at me, his eyes pleading for me to "mediate fairly."
"Friend Shen, my actions that day were not malicious. If you still feel resentment or anger, I will visit you later to apologize. However, regarding that bronze talisman Buddha, if it is still in your possession, please return it as soon as possible. It is a matter of great importance—"
"That's enough." Shen Qingrui interrupted bluntly, "Don't waste my time. I, Shen Qingrui, only go out to execute missions. After returning home, I report everything to the head of the family. If you want something, just tell our family head yourself."
