408: A lesson for you 408: A lesson for you Editor: Exodus Tales  碧溪谷内,静谧安详.

Green Jade Valley.

周妙如派来的掌事,要么被请出去安顿随从,要么在谢长晖的忽悠下,帮忙整理礼物——贿赂当然是少不了的.

The disciples that Zhou Miaoru sent to lead the way is now either arranging accommodation for Xie Lianzhen’s servant of helping to put the gifts in neatly in place under Xie Zhong Hui’s eyes.

Of course, bribery is involved.

谢廉贞随着刘极真,进了他的书房.

Xie Lianzhen follow Liu Jizhen back into his study room.

刘极真刚提起茶壶,就被谢廉贞接了过去:”您是长辈,我来.” Liu Jizhen took up the tea pot to offer Xie Lianzhen tea, but Xie Lianzhen immediately took the tea pot over and flashed Liu Jizhen a huge smile.

“You’re the elder.

Junior should do it.”   “…”  安同尘在心里暗叹.这小子,太会做人了,高骧跟人家一比,小娃娃似的.

~This kid is really good at such things.

If Gao Xiang were to stand beside him, he’ll be like a baby.~ An Tongchen sighed.

刘极真不见喜怒,任由他献殷勤.到现在他要还不知道谢廉贞想干什么,就太迟钝了.他一个没有修为的废人,徒有掌院之名,实则被放逐多年,哪里值得廉贞星君这么对待?但此刻,他更担心陆明舒,没心思考虑这件事.

But there’s still no expression on Liu Jizhen’s face.

He handed him the teapot and let Xie Lianzhen act as he wished.

Liu Jizhen have understood Xie Lianzhen’s intention by now, but he was too caught up with worrying about Lu Mingshu that he does not have the mood to think of any other thing.

时间过得飞快,太阳已经开始往西边下坠.

Time flies past, and the sun starts to set.

倒出来的热茶,逐渐失去热气.

The tea that Liu Jizhen had made earlier on has already cooled down.

刘极真没开口,谢廉贞也不去催他,只默默地将茶水放回炉上,重新热过.

Liu Jizhen is still staring into space, while Xie Lianzhen did not mind, but continuously reheat the tea for both of them and An Tongchen.

等到他热到第三遍,刘极真抬起头:”廉贞公子,你需得立誓,今日之言,一旦离开九瑶宫,就要忘得一干二净.” When Xie Lianzhen had reheated the tea for the third time, Liu Jizhen look up at him and sighed.

“Alioth star lord, swear that after today, you will not say anything about what you heard now and forget about it all after you leave the Nine Jade Palace.”   安同尘听得此言,面色微变:”刘师兄!” “Senior brother Liu!” An Tongchen yelped, hearing Liu Jizhen’s words.

刘极真想干什么,他听出来了.这实在不是一个好主意,九瑶宫数百年之秘,通过他的口说出去,若是被人知道,直接就能清理门户了.就算没人知道,他们入门时也是立过誓的.

An Tongchen can tell what Liu Jizhen has decided, and this is definitely not a good idea.

If anyone finds out that Liu Jizhen has told an outsider of the Nine Jade Palace’s top secret, he beheaded immediately.

And even if this remains unknown to others, they have sworn to bring the secret to their grave when they had first joined the sect.

可刘极真只是看了他一眼,并没有改变主意的意思.

Hearing An Tongchen, Liu Jizhen look over and shook his head, not changing his mind.

谢廉贞神情严肃:”晚辈在此立誓,今日之事,出前辈之口,入晚辈之耳,若有第四人知道,便叫我修为尽废,不得善终.” Xie Lianzhen nodded and look at Liu Jizhen sincerely.

“Junior will hear swear that whatever is being said in this room will be kept here.

If any other person knows about anything said here, I’ll die a bad death and be cursed forever till I die.”   刘极真面色缓和下来,轻轻点了点头.

Seeing him being sincere, Liu Jizhen sighed and nodded his head.

他端起茶杯,却没有饮,顿了一会,说道:”神女祭,其实是更高规格的天门之争…” “The Deity’s festival, is actually the more upgraded version of the heavenly door competition…”  …

见陆明舒不闪不避,温掌院面露微笑.年轻人,真是太骄傲了,她以为自己实力强横,就能一路横扫吗?哪个出神境的高手,没有几招秘技?

Seeing that Lu Mingshu did not dodge, courtyard leader Wen shook his head and laughed.

~Too arrogant.

If any powerful spirit realm could take over the world with just being strong, then why wouldn’t many have done it?

Every spirit realm have their on secret techniques that no one knows about!~   剑尖触到她时,身上玄光迸发,自动护主.温掌院不惊反笑,剑身上突现一抹血色流光,仿佛惊虹,飞掠而起.

When the tip of the sword touched her, mystic light formed a shield, shielding Lu Mingshu immediately.

Courtyard leader Wen let out a laugh and a blood colored light appeared on his sword body, before shooting up into the sky.

“叮——” “Ding—-”   “噗——” “Boom—-”  “嗤——” “Zzz—–”  三声几乎同时响起.第一声,是陆明舒的剑斩落在另一名帮手的剑身上;第二声,是剑刃入体;第三声,是温掌院的剑刺破了她的护身玄光.

Within no span of time, Lu Mingshu’s sword clashed with courtyard leader wen’s helper’s weapon and Courtyard leader Wen cut himself in his waist before breaking Lu Mingshu’s mystic light formed sword.

温掌院脸上的笑容扩大.这个交换太值了,他的血魔线一旦入体,就会进入经脉,吞噬她的玄力.到时候只要拖着,等她玄力不足,再一举拿下便可!

Courtyard leader Wen cannot hide the smile on his face.

~Worth it!

As soon as my blood devil snake entered her body, it would start to devour her mystic force.

I’ll then fight with her, for her mystic force to be depleted at an even faster speed than take her down at the right time!~   陆明舒剑气一震,将温掌院震退,自身一闪,瞬间远离.

“Boom!” Lu Minghsu exert her sword energy to throw courtyard leader Wen away for her.

She than jumped back for a few meters, widening the distance between them.

温掌院稳住身形,笑了起来:”陆师侄,师叔教教你,做人太自大了,不好.” Getting up on his feet fast, Courtyard leader Wen brushed his clothes and smiled at Lu Mingshu thinly.

“Junior niece Lu, Senior Uncle will now show you the disadvantage of being arrogant.”   陆明舒低头看了看被他刺破的伤口,也笑了笑:”温师叔,师侄也教教你,做人眼界太低,更不好.” Looking at the injury on her, she shook her head and laughed.

“Senior uncle Wen, junior niece will too show you the disadvantage of being a frog in the well.”   她的态度太随意,温掌院疑心顿起.怎么,难道他判断错了?不对,血魔线是进了她的经脉,他感觉到了.

Lu Mingshu’s calmness made Courtyard leader Wen suspicious.

~Did I made a mistake?

But I can feel my blood devil snake in her body!~   陆明舒按住伤口,掌下玄光闪动.同时,经脉里已经转化过的剑灵玄力,捉住那一丝血魔线,迫不及待地张开口,大口大口地吞噬起来.

She pressed down on her injury and mystic light started to flicker.

At the same time, her sword energy got tangled up with the blood devil snake and start to devour the blood devil snake instead.

真当她毫无防备吗?如今她已修得满身剑气,护体玄光一释放出来,就感觉到温掌院的剑气别有玄机.只是,温掌院觉得这个交换很值,她也觉得很值.

~Do he think I would be unprepared?

I’m different from the Lu Mingshu they once know.

Now, as a swordsmanship cultivator, I could feel the blood devil snake as soon as he broke my sheild.

But yes, this is a worthy transaction.~   清理掉那个帮手,只剩下温掌院一人,孤掌难鸣.而他的血魔线太弱,已经转为剑修的她,身上的玄力都带了剑气特性,攻击性十足,一闻到血魔线的气息,就蠢蠢欲动想要将之吞噬.既然如此,她就当喂养剑气好了.

After getting rid of the other helper, Courtyard leader Wen is now a lone wolf.

To Lu Mingshu who’s a swordsmanship cultivator, Courtyard leader’s blood devil snake is too weak to get her mystic force, which have now become aggressive.

As soon as the blood devil snake enter her body, her sword energy rushed up to trap it.

~Since then, I’ll just take it as my sword energy’s feed!~   当她体内的玄力咬住血魔线,开始吞噬,温掌院脸色变了.

When her sword energy bit onto the blood devil snake, Courtyard leader Wen turned green.~   “怎么会?啊…”他面色一抽,捂住胸口.这丝血魔线,是他千辛万苦养出来的,心脉相连,眼下被陆明舒体内的剑气割碎,自身亦受到反噬.

“Ah, what’s happening…” He starts to experience cramps, and difficulty in breathing.

This snake is grows from his blood, and relies on him for survival, as if a part of his body thus he would feel the pain when it’s being torn into pieces too.

“想要我身上的东西,也要看你有没有这个本事!”话音一落,剑气骤然发动.

“If you want to take something from me, you need to have the ability to be able to do so!” Lu Mingshu shouted.

Sword energy start to surround Courtyard leader Wen and trapping him.

温掌院只看到剑光飞起,倏忽之间,一化为众,变成漫天剑影.仓促间,他亦召剑,挥手化阵,急掠而去.

Seeing the sword light all over his head slowly joining togther, forming a sword shadow web above him, Courtyard leader calm himself down and came out with an idea fast.

有机会,还有机会的.这丫头虽然剑术高超,但她毕竟进入出神没多久,硬拼的话说不定还有一线胜机!

~Her swordmanship may be excellent, but she have just broken through so experience is something she lacks.

I just have to tackle on her weakness and I’ll have the chance!~   抱着这样的决心,温掌院体内的玄力喷薄而出.但见玄光耀目,引动磁光激荡,一圈一圈的无形浪涛荡开,瞬间激起异色磁光,仿佛天降流霞.

With his determination, courtyard leader Wen exert his mystic force.

They were so bright that it affected the magneto-optic light and start swriling around the sky, forming a whirlpool.

The colours chaged rapidly too, as if the sky has turned into rainbow colour.

离此数里,宇文师停住了.

Yu Wen-shi who was not far from the place stopped in his tracks.

“好大的动静.”他脸上的表情高深莫测,”周家这是要破釜沉舟了.” “The effects.” He look up to the sky and bit his lips.

“The Zhous are really doomed.”   与他在一起的,是玉台一脉的另一个出神境,他的师弟贺轩.

On his left stands another spirit realm from the line of Jade terrace.

His junior brother, He Xuan.

贺轩的表情有几分难以置信:”他们还真敢下手啊!” “Wow, the zhous are indeed brave!” He Xuan stared at the sky in awe.

宇文师嘴角勾了勾:”我倒是佩服周妙如的勇气了,竟然下得了这样的决心.” “It’s Zhou Miaoru’s idea.” Yu Wen Shi laughed.

“But brave indeed.”   贺轩却道:”一旦见了血,可就回不到从前了.” “Once they take actions, nothing would be the same.” On the other hand, He Xuan looks worried.

“谁说不是呢?此事过后,周家胜,以后九瑶宫就是他们的一言堂,我们要想办法另寻出路了.若是周家败,嘿嘿!” “Duh.

After this, if the Zhous win, we will have to run away for our lifes.

But if other wise….Hehe.”   看到宇文师眼中闪动的野心,贺轩道:”宇文师兄,那陆明舒到底进入出神不久,温世杰和祁志和他们拉下脸,只怕她胜出的可能性很小.” Seeing Yu Wen-shi’s eyes shining, He Xuan shook his head.

“Yu-wen senior brother, Lu Mingshu have just broken through the spirit realm!

And she’s fighting agaisnt Wen Shijie and Qi Zhihe.

It would be tough for her to win.”   宇文师缓缓摇头:”他们遇到的是那个丫头,未必!” “But it’s that girl, so it’s hard to say.”   贺轩没想到他对陆明舒的评价这么高,不免想到邵正阳得的那本秘法,有些心痒:”师兄这么肯定?” He Xuan eyes widen in shock, hearing that Yu Wen-shi have high expectations for Lu Mingshu.

His mind flew back to the secret book that Shao Zhengyang have gotten.

~Could it be that good?~ “Senior brother is sp sure?”   宇文师听出他的试探之意,笑道:”师弟莫急.待此事过后,倘若事如人意,那本秘法我们便可共享了.” Being able to tell that He Xuan is probing him, Yu-wen Shi laughed.

“Junior brother can be at ease.

If everything goes well, I’ll share it with you too.”   得了允诺,贺轩露出笑来:”倒是沾了邵师侄的光.” Upon getting promised, He Xuan smiled.

“Bless junior nephew Shao.”   “我们同出一脉,自当互帮互助.”宇文师指了指那处,”既然周家撕破了脸,我们也没必要置身事外了.走吧,我们去看看,能不能帮得上忙.” “We are one, of course we should work together.” Yu-Wen shi patted his back and pointed to the area with large effect.

“Since the zhous have made it ugly, there isn’t any more need for us to stay out of the game.

Let’s go, and see if we could render her help.”   贺轩以异样的目光看他:”看来师兄这次是下定了决心.” “Oh, senior brother is so sure?” He Xuan started at him, unconvinced of Yu-wen Shi’s decision.

宇文师笑道:”最后的机会,不抓住岂能甘心?” “Seize the chance.

It’s the last.” Yu-Wen Shi chuckled.

“也是.想占便宜,当然要有所投入.” “True.

A great chance to take advantage.”   师兄弟纵起身影,往争斗处赶去.

The brothers jumped up and went over to the fight.

和他们做出同样决定的人,却也不少.周家派系自是当仁不让,反周诸脉亦是积极前往.一时间,所有进入神女遗迹的长老,都往这边聚集.

Others who make the same decision as the brothers rushed towards the place too, and the Zhous rush to help.

There are quite a number who support the Zhous, but quite a number oppose the Zhous too.
