Chapter 35: CH 35

[Chapter 35 – Qionghua Valley!] What are you lying to him for!

“He can survive even this?” Qin Shao Yu chuckled, “Looked like he’s lucky.” 

Putting down the wrist in her hand, Hua Tang stood up, wanting to go and take a look, but felt dizzy. 

“Are you alright?” Zhao Wu quickly went over to aid her, but with a scowl from her, he could only return to the wall corner listlessly.

Qin Shao Yu smirked, feeding a chopstick full of chicken to Shen Qian Ling. 

“Ke ke.” The white robed man was still coughing. Hua Tang went over to feel his pulse. A moment later, she raised a hand, and simply knocked him out; it was very violent.

Silence descended instantly. Everyone used an indescribable, complicated and conflicted expression to look at the left chief. As a lady, you shouldn’t be so fierce. He’s already in such a bad state and you still hit him, how could you bear to do so. 

She definitely won’t be able to marry. 

“He may not live even though he’s awake, if he’s unconscious, he may still have a chance.” Hua Tang stood up, “Bring him to Qiong Hua Valley within ten days and I will be able to save him.” 

Immediately, Shen Qian Ling looked at her with extremely worshipful eyes. The left chief is really impressive. 

“Don’t look at others with this look.” Qin Shao Yu grasped his chin and turned his face over, “Eat your food properly.” 

Shen Qian Ling: “………”

I dare you to be even more overbearing. 

And you don’t even have breasts. 

I don’t want to look at you at all. 

The rest of the journey was peaceful. On the afternoon of the fifth day, the group of travellers arrived outside Qiong Hua city. There were many imperial soldiers outside the city gate who were inspecting the people coming in and out of the city.

“Go and find out what’s happening.” Qin Shao Yu said. 

The subordinate acknowledged the order and went forward. He returned after a long while, saying: “A flower thief has reportedly appeared in the city, and thus the authorities have added precautions.” 

“A flower thief?” Shen Qian Ling heard it from within the horse carriage, and poked his head out curiously.  

“Yes.” The subordinate said, “His methods are said to be cruel, there’s quite a few young masters from rich families who have been harmed.” 

“Young men from what?” Shen Qian Ling’s eyes widened. 

“Rich families.” The subordinate said frankly, “The rapist is a cut-sleeve and likes young delicate men.”  

I don’t want this anymore! Shen Qian Ling quickly retracted his head. 

Qin Shao Yu laughed, and got off his horse and into the carriage. 

“To think there’s even such a perverted flower thief.” Shen Qian Ling grumbled. 

“What are you scared of, no one would dare to touch you anyway.” Qin Shao Yu took a pastry from in front of him to eat.”

“That’s right, whoever touches me will become an eunuch.” Shen Qian Ling took the chance to remind him. 

Qin Shao Yu grasped his face, “Say it again.” 

“Whoever touches me will become an eunuch.” Shen Xiao Shou’s voice was resonant and strong. 

And then he was held in place by Qin Shao Yu and bitten. 

…….

Shen Qian Ling rubbed the teeth marks on his cheek, not knowing what kind of expression he should use to face him.

“It’s sweet.” Qin Shao Yu said, “The sweet pastries that you secretly ate got onto your cheeks?”

“Shut up.” Shen Qian Ling was irate, and pulled Qin Shao Yu’s face in opposite directions. 

“Sect leader.” A subordinate said from outside, “We will be reaching the city gates now, should we cooperate with the inspection by the authorities?” 

They can even not cooperate? Shen Qian Ling looked at Qin Shao Yu with righteousness instantly; cooperation and supporting the safety checks of the government should be the duty and responsibility of every citizen. 

“Let them.” Qin Shao Yu tidied up Shen Qian Ling’s clothes, “There’s no harm.” 

“If you don’t want to let them inspect us, then how can we enter the city?” Shen Qian Ling was curious. 

Qin Shao Yu said imperiously, “Fight our way in.” 

Shen Qian Ling: “………”

Saying that with such an arrogant face, just what are you planning. 

Is there still any demeanor of a famous and proper sect left. 

“Get off, get off, it’s an inspection.” The guards at the city gates stopped the horse carriage, “Where are you from?”

“Dominion of Shadow Chasers.” Zhao Wu said, “My sect leader wants to enter the city to visit Master Ye.” 

“Sect leader of the Dominion of Shadow Chasers?” The guard was all smiles, and said smoothly, “Can this lowly one have the chance to admire the dashing appearance of the sect leader?” 

“Keke.” In the horse carriage, Shen Qian Ling ended up choking. To be able to divert an inspection into this, his bootlicking skills has certainly reached a new level.

“Sect leader?” Zhao Wu asked outside the carriage. 

Qin Shao Yu lifted the curtain of the carriage, and glanced coldly outside. 

“Sect leader is certainly of extraordinary bearing.” The guard flattered and praised, “I wonder if there are any other people in the carriage?” 

“There is.” Qin Shao Yu raised an eyebrow, “My fu-ren, want to look?” 

“Hehehehe Sect leader must be joking.” Chills running down his back, the guard quickly waved his hand, “With a beauty like an immortal and a countenance like jade, how can ordinary folk like me look at him. You’re free to go now, free to go.”  

“How is this kind of inspection useful?” Shen Qian Ling asked after Qin Shao Yu returned to his seat. 

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s useful or not, the officials just have to do something.” Qin Shao Yu said, “But for these sort of things, matters of Jianghu will be handled within Jianghu.” 

“So you are going to help?” Shen Qian Ling asked. 

Qin Shao Yu was puzzled, “Why should I help? That flower thief didn’t bother you.”

Shen Qian Ling turned reticent.

That’s why he shouldn’t be treated as one of the famous and proper sects. 

The carriage entered the city, and went straight to Qiong Hua Valley. Shen Qian Ling was leaning on the window, looking outside, “What kind of person is the master of Qiong Hua Valley?” 

“Ye Jin isn’t a bad person, but his words can be a bit harsh.” Qin Shao Yu said, “And due to trade matters, he has some conflicts with Qian Feng, so it’s best you talk to him as little as possible.” 

“What about the pearl then?” Shen Qian Ling pressed on. 

“I will get it for you of course.” Qin Shao Yu patted his head, “If he doesn’t want to give it then we will snatch it, if we can’t snatch it we will steal it, what are you afraid of?”

Shen Qian Ling’s eyes brimmed with tears, “This hero, you are so handsome.”

“Why do you want this spiritual stone so much?” Qin Shao Yu asked.

“Because there is fate between me and the spiritual stone.” Shen Qian Ling found an excuse. 

Qin Shao Yu felt it funny, “The matters of fate can be said by the person himself?”

“In short, I just want it.” Shen Qian Ling held his hand solemnly, and looked at him with extremely sincere eyes, “You absolutely must not fail to live up to the trust of this team, if you can’t get the spiritual stone then I will die for you to see.”

QIn Shao Yu frowned, “Where did you learn how to cry, cause a scene and threaten your death?”

Shen Qian Ling’s eyes closed into small crescent moons, “My mother.” 

Qin Shao Yu drank a mouthful of tea calmly. 

Should he make sure Shen Qian Ling is far away from Lady Shen next time?

Qiong Hua Valley was in the city’s southern suburbs. A gigantic stone tower over its entrance, hundreds of peonies in bloom were meticulously drawn on it. Below the stone stood a green-robed man who was focused on playing the Xiao. 

Amid the wuwu sounds, Shen Qian Ling covered his ears with a grimace. 

How could there be….such…..unpleasant….sounds….

Qin Shao Yu lifted the sedan curtain and walked out, listening to an entire song earnestly. 

“How is it?” After the song ended, the green-robed man asked him in anticipation. 　

“Unpleasant to hear.” Qin Shao Yu, expressionless, was very direct. 

The green robed man: “……….” 

“No progress made at all in three years, you can be considered to be bizarrely dumb.” Qin Shao Yu was ruthless, not giving him face at all. 

The green-robed man was irate, “Did you come here to mock me?”

“I came for the Scarlet Flame stone.” Qin Shao Yu pulled open the sedan curtain, “Ling-er, come out.” 

Shen Qian Ling obediently held his hand and jumped down the carriage. 

“You are the young brother of Shen Qian Feng?” Ye Jin sized him up, his voice full of animosity. 

“….Yes.” Shen Qian Ling was frozen by his beautiful but aloof eyes. 

“You don’t look as stupid as him.” Ye Jina asked, “What do you think of my xiao playing?”

Shen Qian Ling praised immediately, “It’s very good, it’s practically the music of heavens floating about.” To request something from him, the flattery must be done well at this moment. 

“Hypocritical.” Ye Jin spit out one word coldly. 

Shen Qian Ling: “…….”

This tone deaf idiot who doesn’t know how to play the xiao! 

“Come in.” Ye Jin turned and walked in, throwing a porcelain bottle to Qin Shao Yu with a twist of his hand. His robes fluttered in the wind, mists curling around him; there was very strong feeling of an immortal.

Qin Shao Yu opened the bottle and handed it to Shen Qian Ling, “Drink it.” 

“What is it?” Shen Qian Ling sniffed it, smelling a whiff of fresh grass. 

“Dew of a hundred grasses.” Qin Shao Yu said, “Qiong Hua Valley is full of miasma of poisonous plants, one can be poisoned in a moment of inattentiveness, this can protect you.” 

Traps were everywhere in Qiong Hua Valley. Even with Qin Shao Yu bringing the way, Shen Qian Ling still stepped and triggered the traps three times, and thus the people of the Dominion of Shadow Chasers could only be forced to greet the medicine and poisonous powders thrown in their face. The scene practically shook one to the core.

Shen Qian Ling felt a deep guilt, feeling that he was idiotic to the extreme.

“Shall this husband bring you in?” Qin Shao Yu reached out a hand to him. 

Shen Qian Ling obediently let himself be carried in his arms. 

Even though it was embarrassing, it was still better than troubling everyone else. 

Qin Shao Yu smirked, carried him, then leapt into the air and swooped forward. The underlings of Dominion of Shadow Chasers all shook their heads and sighed. Their leader was too malicious, it was clearly him who triggered the traps just now. Just speak up if he wants to carry fu-ren and get intimate with him, instead of making everyone dodge here and there. Does he still have any self-awareness of being the leader?

“We’ve reached.” A moment later, Qin Shao Yu let Shen Qian Ling down gently on a clearing. 

“There aren’t traps here right?” Shen Qian Ling still had some lingering fear. 

“Of course not, this is where Ye Jin receives his guests.” Qin Shao Yu held his hand, walking in, “The journey has been tiring. Let’s eat and rest soon.” 

“There’s only simple fare here. I’m afraid I can’t entertain young Master Shen well.” Ye Jin was very petty. 

“It’s alright, Ling-er’s meals will be prepared by me.” Qin Shao Yu’s temperament was very good. 

“There’s no kitchen either.” Ye Jin gritted his teeth. 

“The ancestors of Fan Yan were bricklayers.” Qin Shao Yu said calmly with a smile, “He can lay one in half a day.” 

Ye Jin: “…….”

Shen Qian Ling: “……”

“Sect leader.” Fan Yan walked into the yard with a string of cured meats and two live chickens, “Where should I  build the stove?”

Ye Jin held his forehead in his palm, obviously greatly affected.  

“If you’re unwell then go and rest first.” Qin Shao Yu clutched onto his shoulders and pushed him outside, “Let me settle in the people of the Dominion too.” 

“You are purely here to stir up trouble right?” After going out, Ye Jin whispered angrily, “You already knew that the Scarlet Flame stone isn’t at Qiong Hua Valley, what are you doing running over here to ask me?” 

“Only you and I know of this.” Qin Shao Yu smiled, “If Ling-er asks, then simply say you’re not willing to give.” 

Ye Jin was suspicious, “What are you lying to him for?”

“This is a matter between us husband and wife.” Qin Shao Yu said calmly, and locked him outside with a clang.

Ye Jin could only lament his carelessness at making friends. 

Finally getting some rest after rushing for many days, after dinner, Shen Qian Ling relaxed in the wooden tub comfortably, almost falling asleep. 

“Don’t stay in too long or the water will turn cold.” Qin Shao Yu tied his hair up, “Rest well after your bath, I will join you later.” 

“You’re going out again?” Shen Qian Ling was surprised, “It’s so late.”

“Can’t bear for me to leave?” Qin Shao Yu grasped his chin, his eyes full of smiles. 

Shen Qian Ling: “…….”

You think too much, I was just going with the flow of the conversation.
