Chapter 1564: Book 14: Chapter 73

Slimeball Among Slimeballs Among Slimeballs (Part 9)

Feeling as though he’d freeze to death without Su Xiao having to make another move, Ling Shaoxuan cried, “Okay, okay! Take this cursed blade away!”

“Watch your mouth! This is my mother’s gift!” Su Xiao mercilessly slapped Ling Shaoxuan over the head.

Xun Feng: “Miss S-”

“I’m a guy!”

“Uh… Okay, Constable Su, your broadsword is special, so Brother Ling can’t speak if you don’t move it.”

Su Xiao stopped, thought, picked up the displaced half of Ling Shaoxuan’s sword and then replaced Ancient Cold with it. Merely removing Ancient Cold was enough to restore a pink tinge to Ling Shaoxuan’s face.

“Answer the question!”

“I-I’m not Bronze Mask or whatever.” Despite having taken several breaths, Ling Shaoxuan teeth still chattered during speech as he couldn’t eliminate all the cold energy from his body. With that said, he looked pure when he explained, “I-I did leave the academy, but it… it was for love.”

“Say something that makes sense!”

“I… went to watch Young Master Jiang change.”

Su Xiao pressed Ling Shaoxuan’s head to the ground with his foot. “So you committed indecency on top of murder?!”

Su Xiao had encountered numerous perverts on duty, but he never expected to run into a criminal within his realm of duty at the idol competition.

“Don’t frame me! Young Master Jiang invited me!”

Su Xiao squinted. “Keep going.”

Ling Shaoxuan’s brows danced as if merely recalling the view was enough to set his heart aflutter. “Young Master Jiang invited me out for tea at Winter Solace, hehehe.”

Xun Feng closed his eyes. “Amitabha.”

Su Xiao picked up his foot, then stomped down on Ling Shaoxuan’s head. “Where would there be a winter solace in the middle of summer? You think I’m a kid?!”

“Aren’t you?! You don’t even know what Winter Solace is!”

“What is it, then?!”

Xun Feng: “Brother Ling, please mind your manners.”

“Will manners save my life?!” exclaimed Ling Shaoxuan. “It’s a private place for us young men of nobility.”

“A private place?” Su Xiao wrinkled his nose. “What for? What do you do there?”

Ling Shaoxuan ignored all the eye signals Xun Feng sent him to loudly reply, “Didn’t I just tell you? For tea, hehehe.”

“Hehehe?”

Ling Shaoxuan gave a quiet and brief explanation.

“Ew! You sickos!” denounced Su Xiao.

“What’s so sickening about love?” For a moment, Ling Shaoxuan sounded proud before deflating. “Sadly, I spotted my babe changing from outside his door when I went to pay him a visit, only for that pain in the neck, Lan Jiqiong, to ruin it.”

As much as Su Xiao didn’t want to believe it, he had nothing to argue the authenticity of the story.

“Do you have proof?”

“Proof?! Does love need proof?!”

Right as Su Xiao went to assault Ling Shaoxuan, Xun Feng said, “You can verify the story if you just have someone ask at Winter Solace. As a constable of Liu Shan Men, it would be even easier for you, M-, Constable Su.”

It was a valid point. Besides, Su Xiao could question the Jiang guy if that didn’t work. Even without a witness testimony, Ling Shaoxuan had pretty much convinced Su Xiao.

Su Xiao: Wait, if he’s purely perverted, then…

“You said Bai Yumo went with you, right?”

“Yeah, she stood guard for me. How else would you have found out?”

“So… was she with you when she stood guard?”

“That’s a stupid question! Would I let a girl be present when me and my babe are… hehe.”

“Darn it! Tang Ye!” Su Xiao turned around to run, only for a gust of wind to impede him. “What are you doing?!”

Xun Feng helped Ling Shaoxuan to his feet, then casually waved his hand, knocking Su Xiao back. “You cannot leave yet, Constable Su.” Xun Feng tucked his hands behind his back and meandered towards Su Xiao with a smile. “You have obtained what you wanted, but this one has not.”

“I never had a deal with you.”

“True. You used force to interrogate Brother Ling. This one wishes to see if the same trick will work on you.”

“Hmph, spare me. I’m not going to believe your gentleman façade when we’re in the middle of a fight.”

“Good to see you are frank.”

“Be careful of his weapon!” warned Ling Shaoxuan.

While Ancient Cold still discharged cold energy, it was less intense compared to when Su Xiao crossed blades with Ling Shaoxuan. As Su Xiao always carried it on him, he was accustomed to the chill, not to mention he had practiced Yijin Jing, but that didn’t mean he could control it. He was laser-focused in the heat of battle against Ling Shaoxuan, consequently augmenting the cold. Now that he had relaxed, the temperature was harmless against people without internal energy.

Ling Shaoxuan knew of Xun Feng’s literary talents, but he seldom saw Xun Feng fight. If Xun Feng wasn’t confident he could do something about the cold energy, he wouldn’t amble toward Su Xiao, which suggested he was far more capable than Ling Shaoxuan gave him credit for.

“Constable Su, that weapon is too bloodthirsty; it does not suit you.”

“I will attack if you take another step forward.”

Since Xun Feng didn’t stop, Su Xiao prepared to attack as he monitored every move the former made.

“Out of my way!”
