Chapter 128: Divine Punishment
Knowing that Qiu Wuji is just acting spoiled and not having any problems, Chu Ge was no longer worried.
He leisurely updated the chapters, chatted and joked in the group for a while, informing everyone that there might be fewer updates today and taking the time to organize the outline for the upcoming storyline.
Then, amidst everyone’s understanding and support... the lazy author went to the Black Room.
It’s been a few days since he went... he used to think that Zhong Yi was permanently in the Black Room, but later he found out that it wasn’t the case. Zhong Yi appears and disappears mysteriously. The ones who actually stay in the black room are the chef couple, who opened a nearby restaurant, and Panda, who runs a gold mining studio in the black room.
After the chef couple was cured of their obsession, their thoughts of deceiving their peers diminished, and their thoughts of exercising increased. As soon as he arrived, he saw the couple running, seemingly working hard indeed. When they saw Chu Ge wearing the mask of Third Brother, the couple waved and greeted him, and Chu Ge waved back without disturbing their exercise.
Panda, on the other hand, had a different attitude... The chubby man looked Chu Ge up and down with his small eyes, then turned his head and looked at what he had just said in the group: “Brother Chu should organize the outline, it’s okay not to update today.”
Panda silently retracted the message and sent another one: “Chu Ge lacks humanity.”
“Panda, are you the only one here?” Third Brother leaned his head over, “Where’s Zhong Yi?”
Panda deliberately didn’t leave the group, letting the author see the anticipation in the group, and looked at him askance, saying, “Brother Zhong doesn’t come often anyway... Third Brother, are you free? Why did you come running here during broad daylight? Did you not finish your work?”
Chu Ge touched his chin behind the mask and said, “Isn’t slacking off at work normal? You’re even more watchful than a capitalist, aren’t you?”
Panda swallowed his anger and said, “How did you manage to say that while looking at my screen?”
“Huh? You’re the one hanging around, chatting and slacking off in an unrelated reader group, and you’re blaming me.”
Panda: “...”
Don’t call it an “unrelated reader group”! Damn you...
Forget it, my thick skin probably can’t compete with this guy’s invincible face. Panda rolled his eyes and said, “It’s been a while since you came. I thought you would lose interest in exercising after a few days. What brings you here today?”
“Just testing my mental power. Is that machine fixed?”
Panda became excited, “Is that it? It means you’ll be done quickly and leave, right?”
“Since I’m here, I’ll exercise a bit before leaving, of course.”
Panda almost wanted to punch him in the face.
Chu Ge looked at him strangely, “Something’s off today, fatty. You’re so eager to get rid of me. Did you make plans with a girl? There’s no need to hide it from your bro. I’ll be your wingman.”
“No need.” Panda replied grumpily, “As a devoted fan of Qiu Qiu, I won’t betray her.”
Chu Ge stumbled for a moment.
Seeing that he finally reacted, Panda’s mood improved, and he smiled, saying, “Go up and test it. I’ll help you operate the equipment.”
Panda wasn’t quite sure why the machine broke last time. He secretly thought that this guy was invincible and having a mental power of one star would be impressive enough... But Panda was a three-star expert. He would come up with a way to mentally torment him during their exchange.
Make him unable to update!
“Beep!” Panda started the equipment.
Chu Ge put on the helmet skillfully. This time, he had experience and knew to focus his mental power inward, not projecting it into the fictional world of the book. He simply used his own mental power to counter the pressure of the machine’s electromagnetic waves. That would do the trick.
Panda watched as the stars on the machine lit up, one after another.
The significant change in this new volume compared to the previous one was that Qiu Wuji’s role would be reduced.
She had become the legendary ruler, towering above all, with fewer scenes that required her appearance.
Of course, she would still occasionally show up to please her fans, otherwise the Qiu Qiu fans would revolt. Her main role was to complete the final piece of the Four Symbols Array that she needed: the White Tiger’s Fang.
The Xuanwu armor piece belonged to Qiu Wuji herself, the Azure Dragon scale was obtained from the battle with the Poison Hand Devil Lord in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, and the Vermillion Bird’s Feather had just been obtained. The Four Symbols Array only lacked the item representing the White Tiger, which was rumored to be its fang. ((TL: The Four Symbols Array is based on the four mythical beasts- Azure Dragon (Qing Long), Vermilion Bird (Zhu Que), White Tiger (Bai Hu), Black Tortoise (Xuan Wu) ))
The whereabouts of this item were still unknown, and it would be Qiu Wuji’s primary objective for the foreseeable future. Of course, Chu Ge knew where it was, but he didn’t want her to see this particular outline. Otherwise, she might directly go and take the item she was looking for, causing the plot to go haywire...
Besides, Chu Ge didn’t really want her to see the plot in the future. Her battle with Yan Qianli had sounded the alarm for Chu Ge.
Perhaps Qiu Wuji didn’t have the blind confidence of “I will always win as long as he writes me,” but she took her opponents seriously when facing them. However, there would inevitably be a sense of familiarity with “I’ve seen it all, I’m very familiar with the enemy’s tricks.” Once unexpected variables, such as that white flame, appeared, she would be caught off guard. This pit could easily be jumped into again in the future because it was a matter of human nature... It would be best to eliminate this possibility and not let her see anymore.
Fortunately, most of the things were not properly organized in the previous outline, so it was like starting over now. Qiu Wuji still didn’t know most of the things, so let’s continue to keep her in the dark. Encrypt the document and don’t let her see it in the future.
And with Qiu Wuji’s reduced role, it means she will have more time on his side. Hehe.
The plan is in motion.
Annoying and arrogant sister, come back quickly. I miss you...
Chu Ge organized the documents, closed his eyes, and once again attempted the Heaven and Earth technique to locate Qiu Wuji.
The sky was stained red with blood and fire, and the sounds of shouting, cursing, and screams faded away. Chu Ge’s consciousness passed by indifferently, like the vastness of the heavens, watching the joys and sorrows of all living beings without any ripples.
His consciousness traversed mountains and rivers, entered the mist-shrouded Cloud Horizon Sect, passed through green waters and mountains, and arrived at Qiu Wuji’s secret chamber.
Qiu Wuji suddenly opened her eyes, and her slender hand instinctively reached for the hilt of her sword.
Then she watched as a phantom appeared before her, and the two of them stared at each other.
“It’s you...” Qiu Wuji pouted.
“Come home,” the heavens said.
Qiu Wuji flipped over the heaven’s phantom and swung her scabbard at his buttocks, making a clattering sound: “You dare to spy on me!”
Chu Ge was dumbfounded by this preemptive strike and shouted, “You said Yan Qianli disrespected the heavenly dao, but the most disrespectful person to the heavenly dao in this world is clearly you, Qiu Wuji!”
Angrily, Chu Ge had a thought and tried to make this space lose its laws.
Qiu Wuji widened her eyes as she realized that her hand, which was about to strike Chu Ge, suddenly lost strength.
Heavenly Dao retaliated, flipping over the powerful Sect Master Qiu with a loud smack, and his big hand came down with a “slap”: “Let me show you what divine punishment is!”
With a “smack”, the sound was crisp and clear, with rippling waves, the air instantly fell silent, and both of them stood there in shock.
After several seconds, Chu Ge quietly moved away the palm that was pressed on top of her and coughed, saying, “So, do you think it’s better to hide here or outside?”
Qiu Wuji exploded in anger.
In the next moment, Chu Ge, sitting in front of the computer, was lifted by his ear: “You dare to spank my butt! You pervert!”
