Capítulo 47: 47.
The night in the Yuyang City passed with unrest. Many suitors of Cang Yue drowned themselves in liquor to escape the sorrow. While many people were cursing about how a beautiful flower got stuck in shit.
Contrary to the unrest going on in the city, Yang Ze slept rather peacefully. Though the same couldn't be said for Cang Yue. Even though she appeared to be indifferent on the surface, her nervousness was all too visible for him. It wasn't until early morning that she fell asleep.
"heh." Looking at the beautiful sleeping face, Yang Ze gave a soft smile before stretching himself and walking out of the door.
As soon as Yang Ze's figure left the room, Cang Yue's eyes fluttered for a moment before opening completely. In those deep eyes, there wasn't a single trace of emotion. With a voice as cold as ice she whispered softly.
"Well, at least the worm knows his place."
.....
"Well, time to collect what I came here for."
With a smile on his face, Yang Ze slowly made his way toward the place where his father resides. He never once forgot his true purpose of coming here. It was for this thing that he didn't bother to object or say anything against the marriage.
It was early morning. The sky had barely begun to brighten when the master of the Yang Clan, Yang Yuanzhen, was woken from his deep sleep by the sound of urgent knocking on his door. "Clan master! Clan master, are you awake?"
Yang Yuanzhen opened his eyes, took a glance at the light outside, and then asked, with a frown: "This early in the morning, what happened?"
"It's… it's the second young master… Yang Ze! He is here to meet you!" From outside the door came this trembling voice.
"What? Yang Ze?!"
This master of the Yang Clan, one of the most powerful people in Yuyang City, sprung up from his bed as if stabbed by a dagger in the butt. He haphazardly threw on his clothes and, not even bothering to straighten his hair, threw open the door.
"What the hell are you doing here this early in the morning?"
Roaring at Yang Ze who was standing there with a smile on his face, Yang Yuanzhen was about to lose his temper. He was already dead tired from greeting and toasting all the people at the banquet. And now that his sweet sleep was broken by his useless second son, it was no wonder he was angry.
"I came here to collect my payment." Yang Ze raised his brows before speaking out. There was still a smile plastered on his face, that made him look harmless to anyone. Yet it was this very smile that made Yang Yuanzhen want to punch him in the face.
"What payment?" With a frown, Yang Yuanzhen said in an angry voice. A busy man like himself attended to a thousand matters in a day. It was no wonder he even forgot about the little talk he had with Yang Ze.
"The sixth volume of the Seaheart art and spirit stones." Yang Ze's smile slowly disappeared from his face as his tone was getting grim. He already did everything the man asked of him. If he dared to play another trick on him, Yang Ze was going to bury him three feet under the ground. There were some things that he would never compromise on and right now, the sixth layer of Seaheart art was one of them. He could care less about the spirit stones, but the Seaheart art wasn't something he would give up on. After all, it directly affected his future path.
"Oh!" Yang Yuanzhen who was now fully awake eased his frown before shaking his head. Turning back, he went to the corner of the room before picking up a bag and throwing it toward Yang Ze.
"Here. Now get lost." With these words, he shut the door in Yang Ze's face.
As for why this useless son of his needed the sixth volume, he wasn't interested in the slightest. And as for the matter of the sixth volume falling in the hands of the outsiders, he couldn't care less. Without the first five layers, it was impossible to practice the sixth layer. And even if someone managed to get their hands on the first five layers, they still need to practice it till the peak of the Qi Guiding realm before thinking of practicing the sixth volume. And if it were that easy to practice till the fifth volume, then the Yang family wouldn't have only him who reached the peak of the Qi Guiding realm.
"Well." Feeling the weight in his hands, Yang Ze smiled heartily before making his way back to his room.
Opening the door, the familiar beautiful figure of Cang Yue came into his view sleeping on the bed peacefully. Noticing the gust of wind from the window, Yang Ze shook his head before picking up a blanket and covering Cang Yue with it.
After doing that, Yang Ze went to the sofa before opening the bag and taking out the thick sixth volume of the Seaheart Art that seemed to have more than a thousand pages. As for the spirit stones, he put them directly inside the portable space.
"Let's do this." Taking a deep breath, Yang Ze lit up the red candle on the table before engrossing himself in his studies.
Hours passed in the blink of an eye. Cang Yue who was sleeping on the bed fluttered her eyes open. Noticing a light weight that was pressing down on her, Cang Yue frowned lightly. Removing the blanket from herself, she looked at it in confusion. In her memory, she didn't seem to remember covering herself with a blanket.
Moving her eyes around, she saw the figure of Yang Ze huddled in the corner, reading a stack of papers. The flame from the candle flickered for the last time before dying completely. If not for the bright rays of light coming from the window, Yang Ze would have to burn another candle to continue reading.
Cang Yue looked at the figure of Yang Ze for a long time. During the entire night, she was prepared for the guy to make a move on her. But to her surprise, other than talking to her for the first time, he didn't bother her in the slightest.
Even now, when she was asleep, instead of doing something, he kept his hands to himself.
'What kind of a person are you?' The more she looked at Yang Ze, the more she realized she doesn't seem to understand him. Even though he was an ordinary person, he seemed to be shrouded in a layer of obscurity.
"Aaah! It's finally done."
After putting away the last page, Yang Ze rubbed his eyes before sighing in relief. Looking at the burnt-out candle, he seemed to have spent more than three hours reading the sixth volume.
If not for the requirement of reading the martial arts and secret techniques, he wouldn't have bothered to take a glance at this stack of papers. After all, reading it was just a formality for him. Even now that he had finished reading the sixth volume, he doesn't remember a single word from it.
"Oh! You are awake?"
Noticing the figure of Cang Yue that was staring at him, Yang Ze came back to his senses. He was so lost in his reading that he didn't even notice her waking up.
"The ship for the Xuanwu Academy will leave tomorrow. I need to go back home to make some last-time preparations."
In a voice that was still as cold as before, she spoke to Yang Ze.
"Hmm."
Nodding his head, Yang Ze stood up before walking out of the room with a set of other clothes.
"We will leave after you are done changing your clothes."
By the time it takes incense to burn, Cang Yue slowly walked out of the room with a veil on her face. Looking at the figure that leaves much to the imagination, Yang Ze nodded slowly before speaking in a soft voice.
"Let's go."
Getting on the carriage, both of them made their way toward the Cang family. Inside the carriage, Yang Ze could smell the sweet fragrance coming from Cang Yue. Yang Ze seemed to have smelled this fragrance before. Closing his eyes he took a deep breath, trying to remember.
The moment he inhaled heavily, Cang Yue's face turned as cold as ice before her deep eyes looked at Yang Ze with a trace of disgust.
'Sure enough, a dog can not change its habit of eating shit. No matter how much a man pretends to be a gentleman, in the end, he will always show his true colors.'
With these thoughts, the tiny goodwill she had towards him vanished in an instant.
Yang Ze who was unaware of the thoughts going through her head sighed in frustration. No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't remember it.
'Forget it.'
Shaking his head, he opened his eyes and looked outside the window. Though his eyes seemed to be fixated on the scenery outside, in reality, he was looking at the transparent screen in front of him.
