Chapter 28: Money Speaks 19
Meanwhile, The immortal one who was listening to all the conversation sitting inside the space ring couldn't help but shake his head.
Ling Fei... This brat was too unbelievable, not to mention the holy envoy who is still standing.
' Haiz! That young man is surely talented, I thought he was a weak brat but turns out he is still alive, he is going to be a real pain for Ling Fei, ' The immortal master calculated.
He sat crossed-legged in the void inside the ring while his body was covered in pure Qi, with the effect of soul strengthening pill, he had become even stronger so, it was only natural that he could witness the scene happening outside with his powerful senses.
But, one thing remained absolute, he was greatly disappointed in Ling Fei, who lacked the ability to read the situation and proceed accordingly.
It's clear, she had came here on her own in such a revealing and charming dress to please 'That man' while she has nothing but disgust in her eyes for Ling Fei so, the more Ling Fei stays here and talks such mentally retarted words, the more hate he will generate from her.
' Sigh! Why is this brat so stubborn, she said she would overlook the matter, but he is persistent in taking her, Ling Fei... You are courting death by staying here instead of running away,'
" Ling Fei, hurry up and escape now, so many people in the sect are looking for you, the moment you are seen, you won't be caught and presented before the sect master... You will be instantly executed... " The immortal master offered a logical and reasonable path for Ling Fei to take.
Butttttt!!!!
Ling Fei being Ling Fei, didn't put much thought into his master's words.
His blinded eyes make him see himself as someone greater than Bai Lung,
' Don't worry master, we can run away with Saintess, ' Ling Fei directly passed the voice from his mind to the immortal master.
' Sigh! ' The immortal one was truly disappointed.
There is a saying called " Clap and Slap when needed "
It's when you clap because someone did a great job as a reward or slap them for a bad thing they did as a punishment.
It is nothing but a moral code to let someone dance into one's palm as one may wished, be it with the greed of wanting to be praised by everyone else or fear of getting slapped and losing image.
Saintess was a intelligent woman with a good education and high value ethics, she has a rational mind do make perfect decisions, if she had chosen Bai Lung, there is no way she would has anything to do with someone like Ling Fei.
By no means, the immortal one is woman, but, over the millennia of experience, he knows how a woman's mind actually works, on top of that, a maiden.
Bai Lung comes from a good family, his cultivation remains unknown but his presence is domineering and eye catching, he doesn't lack a Name, Fame, Wealth, or anything compared to someone like Ling Fei, who has no name, no fame, and eyes blinded by poverty.
Tho, Immortal one has anticipated Bai Lung to be trash, but, it seems he has something up his sleeves that can fool even his senses, Bai Lung's aliveness is like a slap to the immortal's face, who had proclaimed him to be dead.
As bad as it sounds, The Immortal One was on the side of Bai Lung this time as he didn't want to be biased toward Ling Fei.
Ling Fei simply doesn't have what it takes to charm a woman like Xiao Ling'r.
The hatred of Ling Fei towards Bai Lung was simply unjustifiable... Why was he even hostile? The way he touched her?
Kinda pathetic but, Ling Fei isn't someone who has a say in that, her father has long decided to sacrifice her for the connection with the royal court.
The immortal ones know the world is unfair, the actions of Ling Fei were nothing but childish who believed justice would prevail.
...
" Saintess, you are lying to me, right? You are joking with me. Just tell me it's your father who has sent you against your will, and, I will blindly believe you, there is no way such a graceful woman like with come here with ill intention... I refuse to believe it, Tell me the truth! Tell me it's your father's wish "
Swoosh~
An elegant scent filled the air with the sudden gush of wind, but Ling Fei couldn't enjoy it. His head buzzed and ached, and he couldn't help but clutch his forehead. He couldn't believe that Saintess, the cold and aloof maiden, would say such words with her own tongue.
He refused to believe her, that's not the woman he knew. That's not the woman she is, she is someone with character.
Immortal Master: "..." ( Sigh! This brat is hopeless )
Saintess: "..." ( eh? )
" I have only said the truth, and it's up to you whether you believe my words or not. Also, please don't come to pester me in the future! If Young Master Bai or any other people saw us together by chance, I am afraid I will have to provide him and elders an explanation…"
Saintess's gorgeous face still had a calm expression, but the words she uttered held no mercy, it was venom laced with soul chilling icy aura.
She didn't know why she was even bothering to explain things to him, but she had said what she had to say, so if Ling Fei didn't stop his obsession with her, then she would need to take some extreme measures.
Ling Fei, who heard this was devasted. His world came crashing down.
It makes no sense.
" Ah! I got it, it's Bai Lung... That devil bastard must have used some kind of sorcery to manipulate your mind, that's right, it explains everything... Hahaha! The devil here isn't me but Bai Lung, "
Ling Fei lost his mind while he began to laugh like a madman.
