BXBX NOVEL Chapter 470 - The Scum Is Upset
"Er Zi… you are upset." Wen Wen said as he stared at Fei Yinzi\'s face to observe his expression. "You are, aren\'t you?" he asked as he pursed his lips.
Fei Yinzi\'s eyes widened. How did Wen Wen who is usually dense suddenly noticed my mood? He thought, shocked. Also… why are you the one crying as if you are the one who was wronged by my master?! He thought. His face is covered in dark lines. "Wen Wen…" he called.
Wen Wen pressed his lips tight into a thin line and lowered his head to hide his expression. "If you are upset, you should tell it to others… to your master…" he said. "To me…" he added in a low voice. Then, he raised his head to looked at Fei Yinzi in the eyes. "Er Zi… you should definitely say something if you feel uncomfortable… especially if you feel unwell!" he told him.
Fei Yinzi stared at Wen Wen for a long time before a smile formed on his lips. "Wen Wen." He called as he patted Wen Wen\'s head to comfort him. "I\'m not upset anymore, so don\'t cry, okay?" he asked in a soft voice. "Come on. They must be waiting for us now." He told him as he grabbed his wrist to pull him.
"… you really don\'t feel upset anymore?" Wen Wen asked as he looked at him with a doubtful gaze.
"… no." Fei Yinzi answered and helplessly smiled. How did he become so sharp now? He thought as he pulled him to catch up with their fellow disciples and their elders and masters.
"Hm?" Cheng Sheng muttered and turned back to see Fei Yinzi and Wen Wen running after them, with Fei Yinzi holding Wen Wen\'s wrist pulling him along as they ran. His gaze suddenly turned complicated. "… where did you to go?" he asked.
Fei Yinzi heard his master\'s voice and his eyes brightened as he looked up at his master. "Shizun! It\'s nothing! We were just looking around…" he answered and grinned.
"Yes, Cheng-shibo." Wen Wen nodded.
How can Cheng Sheng not know that the two are lying? He could see that Wen Wen\'s eyes are red, as well as the tip of his nose and his cheeks are slightly flushed. Obviously, Wen Wen cried. I didn\'t know that my disciple went from being bullied to bullying the others. He thought and sighed.
He pulled Wen Wen, much to both Wen Wen\'s and Fei Yinzi\'s surprise. "Er Zi. You shouldn\'t bully Wen Wen! What have I told you before?" he said in a stern voice.
Wen Wen. "???" \'bully\'? Bullied who? Did someone bully Er Zi again? He thought, confused.
Fei Yinzi. "…?" huh?! When did I bully Wen Wen?! He thought and pouted, looking wronged.
"You even dared to bully your shidi!" Cheng Sheng continued and frowned at Fei Yinzi as he looked at him with a stern gaze. "Go apologize to your Lei-shishu after lunch!" he said and brought Wen Wen inside the room with him.
Fei Yinzi. "… HUH?!" he exclaimed and stood on the spot with a dumbfounded look on his face. I have to apologize?! But I didn\'t apologize Wen Wen! He thought. "Shizun…" he muttered and placed a palm on his face before he helplessly walked inside the room before closing the door.
Life is so hard being Cheng Sheng\'s disciple…
Wuyang Sect, night.
"Wu Tie." Wu Tong called his eldest son.
"Yes, father." Wu Tie answered as he knelt before his father who is standing as he gazed outside the window.
"How is your younger brother?" Wu Tong asked.
"Answering father. Wu Tao is still unrepentant for his mistake, so he is still locked in his room." Wu Tie answered. "He also doesn\'t eat even if the disciples have sent him four meals a day, and wasted all the food, leaving it outside his room untouched so it smelled. This made the other disciples be disturbed in their studies, and some in their sleep." He explained.
Wu Tong\'s face darkened and his fists on his back clenched, making the qi condense around his body because of anger. "Tell him he doesn\'t need to participate in the Intersect Competition." He told Wu Tie.
Wu Tie\'s eyes flashed, but because he has his head lowered as a sign of deference to his father, Wu Tong didn\'t see it. "Yes, father. This son will relay your message to younger brother faithfully." He said before he rose from the floor, bowed his head, then silently left.
As soon as Wu Tie has left the vicinity of Wu Tong\'s residence, a sly grin formed on his lips. "How is he now?" he asked in the empty space.
Some figures hidden in the dark spoke. "Answering the eldest young master. The second young master still refuses to eat his meal." Someone answered. "The second young master also wishes to see young mistress Hui Lu." They added.
Wu Tie sneered, but the grin on his lips became wider. How can Wu Tao just demand for Hui Lu\'s presence just because he said so? Hui Lu isn\'t someone Wu Tao can dare to attain. Hui Lu is the third young mistress of the Hui Clan, which is the powerhouse of the Tuanhui Sect.
Wu Tie can clearly see through Hui Lu\'s scheme. Because Hui Lu was born from a mistress, she wanted to become a phoenix despite being a chicken so she started cultivating. Even though she was a mistress\' daughter, but since she showed some talent and is ranked the third in the daughters of their clan, she had the privilege to go outside with the disciples of the sect to mingle with the other sects.
This is how she met Wu Tao, this dumb scoundrel who only thinks of romance despite has no ability to start one. Thus, he fell hook, line and sinker with Hui Lu.
"Create a letter from \'Hui Lu\' and send it to my younger brother." Wu Tie spoke. "And relay father\'s message after to him." He added.
"Yes, eldest young master." The people in the dark answered and bowed with reverence. They waited for Wu Tie to leave before they left their posts stealthily.
It is not unreasonable to say that Wu Tie hates Wu Tao, his younger brother. In fact, he loathes him. Who told him to smear the Wuyang Sect\'s name that he, Wu Tie, and his father, worked hard to build with much dignity? Just after Wu Tao was born, the sect has fallen to a disgrace. Remembering how his father has to bow to other people because of the many messes that Wu Tao made…
Wu Tao shouldn\'t have born.
Tuanhui Sect.
"Third young mistress, you are really very pretty!" Hui Lu\'s maidservant praised after she finished carefully wiping the water on Hui Lu\'s face.
"Or else?" Hui Lu\'s brow raised. "How can I hook that younger brat from the Wu family?" she said as she arrogantly smiled.
Hui Lu\'s maidservant chuckled. "Third young mistress is right!" she nodded in agreement as she now wipes Hui Lu\'s hand.
"Hmph. Short-sighted idiot." Hui Lu scolded as she pulled her hand, then raised it to check if there is still dirt on her nails or the gaps between her fingers. "If this young miss can\'t become a phoenix, both of us will be cooked into a stew by those other two!" she said as she gnashed her teeth in anger when she remembered Hui Na and Hui Qu, the eldest and the second young mistresses, respectively.
Every time she remembers their faces, her heart can\'t help but burn in anger.
"Especially that Hui Qu! She\'s very cunning!" Hui Lu continued. "Even though we are both born from mistresses, but because of her acting like a dog to Hui Na, she managed to enter the ranks in the family!" she said and frowned in displeasure while her eyes flashed with disdain as she talked about Hui Qu. "And that Hui Na… just because she was born from the main wife… she got all the love of the family, and so is the prestige!" she said as she can\'t help but slap the armrest of the chair. Then, she hissed in pain.
"Third young mistress!" the maidservant cried before she took Hui Lu\'s hand which the palm has reddened. She then took the cooling salve from the drawer before she opened it and applied on Hui Lu\'s palm. "Please cease your anger, third young mistress!" she told her. "As soon as the third young mistress successfully entered the Wu household and become the wife of second young master Wu Tao, third young mistress can easily trample the eldest young mistress and the second young mistress!" she said.
Hui Li\'s frown turned into a smile when she also thought of the possibility. "Good." She said as she looked at her maidservant, looking satisfied. "So, you still haven\'t gotten dumb." She patted her head. "When this young mistress finally becomes a phoenix, I will definitely remember you." She told her.
The maidservant knelt with her forehead touching the floor. "Thanking the third young mistress for her grace!" she said.
