My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Zuo Shuming faltered, of course it was rare for a peak master to teach a lesson personally, but they were merely disciples who had just joined the inner sect, if they just went to the lesson like that, don’t mention not understanding anything, they might even be misled. Hence, for such lessons, usually it was mostly disciples at Golden Core and above that would attend.

What’s more, the peak master of Dan Chen Mountain, Perfected Shu Yuan was a core cultivator too, his lesson would probably be all about core cultivators, he had already decided to specialize in sword cultivation, it was totally unnecessary to listen to a lesson about core cultivators.

Shu Yi so carelessly came to invite him, a disciple who had just entered Foundation Establishment to attend a lesson at Dan Chen Mountain, seems like there was indeed something wrong with her head?

He glanced at her complicatedly, but at the thought that she had done so out of good intentions, and he wasn’t an ungrateful person, he still said politely with cupped fists. “Thank you, Senior Sister for your notice.” Yet at further thought, he still could not hold back and added, “By the way, Senior Sister…”

“Yes?”

He suddenly stepped forward and stared conflicted at her face for a while before asking in all seriousness, “Your illness… is it better? Have you seen a physician recently?”

“…” Shu Yi’s perfect smile instantly stiffened.

“Oh yes, your father is a Nascent Soul Perfected One. Why don’t you have him take a look?”

“…” Shu Yi’s expression began to contort.

“I feel that we must seek treatment as early as possible if we’re ill, though we’re cultivators with bodies healthier and stronger than mortals, we must not hide our sickness for fear of treatment!”

“Shut up!” Shu Yi’s gentle expression finally collapsed, her entire being seemed like an exploded wool ball as she pointed at him and cursed, “You’re the one who’s ill, your entire goddamn family is ill.”

“Senior Sister…” Zuo Shuming was stunned for a moment, she was fine earlier, why was she suddenly cursing now.

[Host, calm down! He is the target of the mission, you must hold back!] The system’s voice sounded promptly.

Shu Yi was blind with rage and directly retorted in her heart. “How do you expect me to calm down, this Zuo Shuming is an idiot. I’ve done so much, is he blind? Can’t he tell that I’m seducing him? He even said I was sick, I think he’s the one who’s sick. If it wasn’t because I’m afraid that he has other opportunities I wouldn’t even bother with him.”

[After Zuo Shuming successfully entered Foundation Establishment, the original owner’s resentment level went up by another ten points. If his cultivation was to catch up to yours, the resentment level would increase again. Once it exceeds 100 points, the mission is failed.]

“Hmph! His cultivation hasn’t increased by much these few days, he might not even have a new opportunity!”

[What do we do now Host? Still continue to create a good impression in front of him?]

“Create my ass! I only want to kill him now!” She inhaled deeply several times, as if she was fighting to suppress the anger deep down. “This isn’t the only revenge method. Let’s lower the resentment level before anything else, with that artifact, I can form a core immediately. I don’t believe that without his artifact, his cultivation would still be able to surpass mine!”

[All the best host!]

“Senior Sister Shu Yi?” Seeing her suddenly remain rooted and dazed at the same spot and simply glaring at him, Zuo Shuming could not help but wave a hand before her eyes, was she having an attack of her illness?

“Scram!” Shu Yi then ended her conversation with the system and slapped his hand away. “You big jerk, just you wait!”

With that said, she sneered coldly and stalked out angrily.

Zuo Shuming: “…”

This Senior Sister was indeed ill? It even seemed like her illness became graver.

But… why?

“Brother Lonemoon.” He could no longer keep it to himself and turned back to Lonemoon, slightly troubled as he asked, “Earlier… did I say anything wrong? Why did Senior Sister curse at me?”

“…” Lonemoon turned back and glanced at him, here’s a look for you, figure it out yourself. Say, did you accumulate all her resentment like this in your previous life?

“Brother Lonemoon?” He was even more confused.

“You really couldn’t tell that she’s been making passes at you these few days?” Lonemoon rolled his eyes.

“Ah? Ah!” Zuo Shuming wore a look of disbelief. “You’re saying… she likes me? How is that possible! I don’t like her type?”

“Oh, why?” Lonemoon looked at him, slightly surprised.

Putting aside everything about the invader, just judging by Shu Yi’s pretense these few days, it was indeed perfect. Gentle, kind, innocent, and her status was the pretty and rich girl of the cultivating world, to youths like Zuo Shuming, shouldn’t she be their ideal type? Look at the few trips she’d made to their rooms, it’d attracted the eyes of so many disciples. Those people were excluding Zuo Shuming both overtly and covertly, only the naive fool couldn’t tell.

He had to admit that Shu Yi had formed a very successful image of herself, in the entire Gui Yi Sect, there was not a single person who didn’t like her. However, judging by Zuo Shuming’s tone, not only did he not like her, there was even some disdain.

“Because…” Zuo Shuming frowned. “I can’t put it into words either, though she is quite pretty, has good cultivation, I somehow feel like… she’s not that sincere towards others, as if she’s hiding something? I don’t want to be friends with her. Besides…” He suddenly shivered like something came to mind. “The way she looks at me, always makes me feel oddly chilly.”

Lonemoon faltered and glanced at him in surprise, this fellow was a fool but his sixth sense was rather accurate.

“Since you don’t want to be friends, then just avoid her in the future.” Lonemoon said in a low voice.

He nodded in agreement. “I know, since I have no interest in her, I naturally wouldn’t give her any pointless hope I’ll be delaying her in vain.” He blushed at the thought of something, “In the regard of finding Dao partners, it’s better for both parties to be willing.”

Lonemoon turned to pour a cup of tea and casually asked, “Oh, then what kind you do like?”

He faltered for a moment and really thought solemnly. A while later, he replied, “I think… Miss Shen’s kind is not bad!”

Pui…

Lonemoon spat out his mouthful of tea all over Zuo Shuming’s face.

He was stunned, before he could react, he saw Lonemoon shoot to his feet and suddenly spun around, his hands gripping tightly onto the edge of the table, his body even swayed as if he was fighting to block something. A ringing sound even sounded by his ear, like something was being pulled out.

The surroundings instantly became slightly cold.

Zuo Shuming wiped the tea on his face, looking at the person who was still holding the table with a death grip and could not help but called out uncertainly, “Brother Lonemoon?”

“Stop talking!” Lonemoon turned back to give him a glare. “All was good, what nonsense are you spouting!”

Chef, calm down! Calm down! He just casually gave an example, he had no intention of making passes at Shen Ying. Put the sword on his neck down and retract the sword array too.

Yet Zuo Shuming was completely unaware that he already had a foot in hell and even continued to doom himself. “I wasn’t spouting nonsense, I really think that Miss Shen… ah choo!” He suddenly sneezed, after wiping his arm, he continued, “Why do I suddenly feel so cold? Brother Lonemoon…”
