Chapter 296: Little Blue vs Little Plum Part1

The dwarf quickly hurried through the winding tunnels inside the mountain, and Tang Yue closely followed behind him.

These tunnels were almost as complex as the labyrinth's tunnels. However, there were clear directions and markers.

They even crossed a couple of other dwarves, most probably the direct disciples of some Grandmaster, who were on their way out.

And of course, they threw a condescending look towards Tang Yue as they walked past her, very loudly gossiping about the incidents of the previous day.

"Is she that girl who is the mistress of the elven prince?"

"What mistress? I heard that she was a slut who simply managed to make her way to the man's bed."

"Ah. OK. That makes sense." 

"Which man would prefer such a plain-looking woman compared to the beautiful lady Charlotte?!"

"Ha Ha. Yes Yes. Was it four years ago, when the Prince and his consort both together visited the royal city?"

"They were truly a good-looking couple!"

"This girl must definitely have some perverted tricks up her sleeve to make such a man fall for her and bed her!"

Tang Yue's face visibly darkened. She didn't care too much about some random dogs barking at her.

However, the woman couldn't help but wonder just what the heck happened on the last day of the contest!!!

Since she was engrossed in her enlightenment state, Tang Yue was not fully aware of the events of that night.

And immediately after she regained her consciousness, once again too many unbelievable things had happened.

So in the end, she didn't have much time to think about what happened that night.

While Tang Yue was busy mulling over this issue, the old man chimed in abruptly.

"Ha Ha, little snake. What stinking teacher you have!" 

"So much exaggeration for some stinking fire essence cultivation room!"

"How about I give you a different fire elemental array?" 

"You can sit in the convenience of your home and still enjoy top-tier cultivation resources."

Tang Yue ignored the damned old man. 

She knew that the bastard must surely have some traps for her if he was willingly being so generous.

"There is no way I am molesting that poor girl anymore!" Tang Yue coldly snorted, rejecting the proposal in advance.

"Stupid little snake. Just what do you think about me? Do you think I am sort of a perverted lecher?"

"You won't even know a good thing when it sits on your face! Hmph!"

"Oh, I see! So, you want Charlotte to sit on my face? Or wait, do you want me to sit on her face?" Tang Yue snidely commented, mocking the old man.

She had uttered those words without understanding the meaning behind them, but when the old man heard them, he immediately burst into a fit of laughter.

"You girls can lick each other all you want. Why should I care about that?"

"This is the new mission!"

Huh? Huh? Lick each other? What the hell is he talking about? 

Tang Yue raked her brain for a couple of seconds when she finally realized what she had spoken.

Damn it! Her face immediately heated up and she wanted to bury her head somewhere.

When will I ever learn that arguing with that bastard will only bring down my intelligence level!!! Argh!

While Tang Yue was suffering through her embarrassment silently, a new quest popped up.

Ding. New Special Quest Available

Ding. Slap the dwarf Miller three times.

Ding. Reward: Fire essence cultivation array formula

Tang Yue wordlessly opened and closed her mouth after seeing this particular quest.

A thought popped into her mind. This old man… Could he possibly be jealous of my new teacher?

Several experts preferred to have exclusive disciples. 

That too, someone at a Grandmaster's level would even find it very offensive if their disciple had certain other Masters as well. 

So this was not really uncommon, but to react in this way! How childish!!! Tang Yue chuckled to herself and ignored the quest.

Just because there was a quest, it didn't necessarily mean that she had to do it.

At the least, she could first take a look at this special dwarven cultivation room and then think about the quest if the need arose.

The duo walked for a few more minutes before the dwarf finally stopped in front of a huge stone door.

There were intricate patterns and carvings on the door that looked like complex runes.

"This is the fire essence cultivation room?" Tang Yue gaped at the huge door and asked.

"Mmhm. This is the fire chamber and one can use it for cultivation, physical tempering, forging fire attribute weapons, and several other purposes."

"It is one of the most valuable resources available in the Dwarven Empire." The dwarf mumbled and looked at Tang Yue with a bit of jealously in his eyes.

"Now if you could take out your jade slip, the door will open and you can enter the chamber."

"Once you are inside, take out the jade slip again when you are finished with your work."

"The chamber door will again open and you will need to step out."

"In case your time runs out as well, the door will open and you will be required to leave."

"If you don't follow the rules accordingly, the jade slip will break into two and you won't be able to access the chamber the next time."

"Do you understand?"

Tang Yue nodded her head in response. 

She was extremely eager to see what was inside and quickly took out the jade slip.

And as soon as she did that, the humongous stone door rumbled and groaned as it slowly slid open.

Tang Yue's fingers ran over the edges of the stone door and she cautiously stepped inside.

But an invisible force slightly pushed her inside and the door quickly shut tight behind her.

"Fuck! She was indeed telling the truth!" The dwarf saw the scene with his mouth agape.

Even though he had brought Tang Yue here, he never expected her jade slip to actually work.

"Luckily, I didn't run my mouth too much!"

"Just who the hell is this Grandmaster Miller?"

The dwarf wiped the sweat off of his forehead and walked away grumbling.
