Chapter 1286 - I'll Fight with You

Chu Liuyue suddenly looked up!

Detecting her reaction, Elder Wan Zheng curiously asked, “Disciple, what’s the matter?”

Chu Liuyue recovered her senses and smiled to hide her thoughts. “Nothing much. I was just curious… The person you mentioned, Elder Bo Yan, did he… receive the same punishment as me?”

Elder Bo Yan shook his head. “Not really, but… he also made some mistakes before, so he received his corresponding punishment. But from start to end, his attitude was very stubborn, unlike you…”

He wasn’t only stubborn; he just refused to repent. He was exactly the same as his mentor. Perhaps he had long seen such a quality in Jun Jiuqing, so he was always so protective of him…

“Forget it; it’s all matters of the past. We don’t have to talk about it.” Elder Bo Yan directly ended this topic.

Chu Liuyue’s lips moved slightly, but she didn’t say anything in the end.

…

Elder Bo Yan and Elder Wan Zheng personally sent Chu Liuyue back to Jiuheng Peak.

After the incidents that happened during this period, they were already used to putting Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu together. Hence, they naturally sent her back here.

After Elder Bo Yan instructed her about some matters, he left and gave the mentor and disciple space to talk.

When his figure disappeared, Elder Wan Zheng looked at Chu Liuyue. “Disciple, do you know Jun Jiuqing?”

Chu Liuyue smiled slightly. “No. Mentor, why did you suddenly ask that?”

Elder Wan Zheng stared at her and shook his head. “You don’t have to lie to me. When you talked about him, your expression was clearly amiss. You must know him—at least you’ve heard of him recently, right?”

Old ginger is still the spiciest. Chu Liuyue sighed. It was because Elder Bo Yan had mentioned him too suddenly, and I was too shocked, so I couldn’t control my expression properly. 

She kept silent for a moment. “I’ve heard of him before.”

Elder Wan Zheng asked again, “Did Rong Xiu tell you about him?”

Chu Liuyue’s gaze flickered; then, she nodded.

“Sigh… I knew it.” Elder Wan Zheng suddenly sighed as if he were emotional like he had expected everything. “He has deep grudges against Jun Jiuqing. You’re so close to Rong Xiu, so it’s normal that you’ve heard of his name.”

An imperceptible frown appeared on Chu Liuyue’s forehead. In the beginning, I thought that Elder Wan Zheng would guess Rong Xiu because I had pushed the blame to him for a few incidents before. Thus, he naturally thought of Rong Xiu this time. However, it seems like this isn’t the case. 

She didn’t speak, and Elder Wan Zheng thought it was her tacit agreement. “Actually, Jun Jiuqing was originally a good kid. It’s a pity…”

It’s a pity he has a deep mind, and his personality is extreme. When he meets with certain problems, his reactions will often head in an uncontrollable direction. But such comments are left for the elders to be well-aware of on their own. It’s still inappropriate to tell the students about this. 

“But you don’t have to take this to heart. Just focus on yourself.”

Chu Liuyue couldn’t help but ask, “What conflicts happened between Senior Brother Rong Xiu and Jun Jiuqing?”

In the past, I could tell that the two of them didn’t see eye to eye. But hearing Elder Wan Zheng, it seems like they had a long history. 

Elder Wan Zheng knocked on her forehead. “There are some things that aren’t for you to be concerned about. No matter what’s happening to them, just focus on yourself and cultivate properly.”

Chu Liuyue rubbed her head and obediently acknowledged it. “Okay.”

“Okay, you can go back first! Rest well today. Tomorrow, make a trip to my place. Now that you’ve broken through, I want to know where your skills are.”

Chu Liuyue nodded and said, “Oh yes, Mentor, I have used up almost all of my herbs. I want to go to Medicinal Valley to take some more. What do you think…”

Elder Wan Zheng waved his hands. “Just go and take as much as you like! You can put all of them under my name!”

Chu Liuyue’s smile instantly became much more sincere.

After sending Elder Wan Zheng away, she turned around and entered Jiuheng Peak.

This barrier was set up by Rong Xiu specifically, and only the two of them could open it. Of course, Dugu Mobao was the only exception.

Returning to the mountain, Chu Liuyue went straight to the residence. But after touring a round, she then realized that Rong Xiu didn’t seem to be here.

After that, she even searched quite a few places on the mountain and within and outside the house, but she still couldn’t see Rong Xiu.

Looking at the empty house, Chu Liuyue was a little dazed. She instinctively thought that Rong Xiu would be here, so she didn’t ask much when she was with Elder Bo Yan and the rest. Was he… punished because of the previous incident? But even I came back. Why is Rong Xiu still missing? 

“You don’t have to find him. He can only come back after half a month.” A cold and milky voice sounded.

Chu Liuyue was elated. “Big Baby!”

She followed the direction of the voice and walked a few steps forward, discovering that Dugu Mobao was indeed in the room next door.

“Why are you here?” she asked in surprise and curiosity.

Dugu Mobao calmly glanced at her as if he were speechless that she would ask such a question.

Chu Liuyue coughed in embarrassment. “Um… I mean, it’s currently daytime. Why are you here?”

According to Dugu Mobao’s habits, he would normally appear in the evening or night.

Dugu Mobao didn’t directly reply to Chu Liuyue. He clearly felt that there wasn’t much point to the latter’s words.

After being despised, Chu Liuyue didn’t mind it either as she moved over happily.

With Dugu Mobao around, it was normal to be despised. If he wasn’t, it meant that he was cold.

After a while, Chu Liuyue had gotten used to it. Every time she saw the cold expression filled with contempt, all she wanted to do was harshly squeeze it! Of course, she had the thought but not the guts.

In the past, she still dared to be slightly unruly. Ever since she started cultivating with Dugu Mobao, Chu Liuyue had restrained herself much more.

The feeling of being crushed harshly on the chessboard was too painful. This was enough to make her restrain the urge to squeeze his small face and not let her have any desire left at all.

“Where exactly did he go? Why is it taking him so long?” Chu Liuyue sized him up curiously. “This should be very confidential. How do you know this so clearly?”

“He’s not in the academy.” Dugu Mobao was a man of few words. He only gave a half-assed answer and ignored all of Chu Liuyue’s other questions. “You broke through and became a stage-eight warrior?”

Hearing him stiffly change the topic, Chu Liuyue had the urge to squeeze his chubby face again. However, the last bit of her rationality stopped her. If Dugu Mobao doesn’t want to speak, it’s clear that asking him anything will be useless. Besides, I probably would accumulate more contempt. 

“I broke through a few days after entering Fiend Park.” Chu Liuyue walked over and sat opposite Dugu Mobao.

Dugu Mobao stared at her. “I’ll fight with you.”
