“I only want to burn some joss paper for him, please, just let me go?” Her pretty eyes were filled with tears as she pitifully stared at the monk.
The monk mused for a bit: “Well, it doesn’t really matter where you burn the joss money. Beastmasters Camp is located at an ill.u.s.trious location, looking down on the nine under-realms with the sky right above. How about this? We’ll go to a lake and burn him an entire carriage of joss paper? He can live large for a hundred years down at the eighteenth-level of h.e.l.l.”
Nalan Xuejian gently bit her lips, finding this monk more annoying by the minute before completely sobbing.
On the path decorated with bamboo trees, a woman with clear skin and beautiful features came over. She had a delicate and feminine figure.
This was a young nun but her eyes were seductive. If she were to come out in the world, she would be a kingdom-toppling beauty, a cause for warfare.
She wore a white Buddhist gown but her skin was even fairer - almost like a snow fairy.
“Why are you crying, Junior Sister?” Bai Ruxue’s voice was elegant and calm just like the streams around the mountain.
Who would have thought that this nun used to be a demoness from the fourth hall of Senluo Temple?
She was subdued by Nangong Hongyan, ordered to stay around Nalan Xuejian in order to steal her Nalan Buddhist Robe. She pretended to be a victim and became Monk Jiu Rou’s disciple.
However, this monk’s cultivation was frightening on top of being very cautious. Despite being quite crafty, she had no opening to do anything.
The threat was gone with Nangong Hongyan’s dead but she still didn’t leave because of two reasons.
First - the robe.
Second - secretly studying the monk’s Buddhist scripture - The People.
“This girl won’t learn The People Scripture and its great dao, only thinking about running away. You’re here on time, go persuade her.” The monk sighed and began drinking again.
He didn’t want to pa.s.s the scripture down to Bai Ruxue so she has no choice but to secretly learn it from Nalan Xuejian.
Ruxue’s eyes were as bright as the stars. Her white brows slightly shook as she asked with a smile: “Junior Sister, I’ve heard that something very interesting has happened today at the camp, many sisters are running there to watch.”
“Really?” Xuejian looked up; her hair was a mess but the tears were no longer there. She pulled on Ruxue’s sleeve and asked: “What is it?”
“Alright, don’t pull now, I’ll tell you. Someone said that a disciple is pregnant on Thousand Islands, I don’t have all the details.” Ruxue said.
Even the monk stopped chewing on his large piece of meat. He looked over, feeling quite interested in this rare event. The camp has been too peaceful recently.
“Oh? How did she get pregnant?” Xuejian’s eyes brimmed with curiosity.
Ruxue said: “A man tricked her, or so they said.”
“Tricked by a man?” Xuejian became anxious: “But I’m always tricked by Feng Feiyun back then, why didn’t I get pregnant?”
“...” Ruxue was speechless.
“Ugg…” The meat got stuck inside the monk’s throat. He hastily poured wine down his throat before managing to swallow it down.
During his struggle, Xuejian and Ruxue have already flown towards Thousand Islands, turning into two pretty rays in the sky.
“Slow down, I’m coming too!” The monk raised his robe like a great bird raising its wings to give chase.
***
No secrets last forever. Though Qinghua forbade her disciples from talking about this, it still traveled across the camp within half a day.
Pretty girls came rus.h.i.+ng. The majority of them were young and beautiful with a transcending and pure aura.
The powerful ones had a Buddhist glow and rode lotus flowers with a white halo above their head. Just a slight movement from them could affect nature and vegetation.
“I heard the pregnant girl is Supreme Wu’s maid; she even helped that man steal the Golden Silkworm Scripture.” A girl was standing on a silver wolf’s head. The beast was floating on top of a bamboo tree, swaying with the wind.
