The Villain Has Something to Say

Chapter 63: Great Senior Disciple Came Back with His Wife and Son! (2)

Translator: Sissy That Walk

Wearing scarlet from head to toe, Mo Qiu was sitting beside the bonfire, roasting meat. The oil seeping out was glittering, dripping down along the succulent meat. Though the lower layer was slightly overcooked, even Luo Jianqing who already practiced Bigu for years was attracted by its appetizing aroma and couldn’t help butswallow a mouthful of saliva.

Intrigued, Mo Qiu looked at him. “You awake?”

Used up all the strength he had now, Luo Jianqing sat up and said boldly, “well, you knew that by just a glance”.

Mo Qiu widened his eyes, “hey! Luo Jianqing, I SAVED you. Is this the attitude you decided to use towards your saver?”

Didn’t get irritated, Luo Jianqing smiled and lowered his head with respect, “thank you, Mo Qiu.”

Stunned by Luo Jianqing’s quick-changing attitude, Mo Qiu suddenly didn’t know what to do. They stared at each other for a while. Finally, Mo Qiu flicked his sleeve, moved his eyes away unnoticeably, “you......you’d better wash your face right now. I can’t bear it anymore.”

Luo Jianqing, “......”

Washed off all the dirt and mud, Luo Jianqing returned to the cave. He had no idea where they were, and was surprised that Mo Qiu had found this cave with heaps of treasures pile up like hills in it. They were sitting in front of the treasures, having dinner.

Luo Jianqing said curiously, “is this your secret treasury cave?”

Mo Qiu shook his head, “you fainted out for days. I gave you pills but you still didn’t wake up. Several days ago, after I killed that beast, I carried you on my back and left that area to avoid encounter with those so-called righteous human cultivators. I met a very hospitable snake on the way, who gave us its own cave and its treasures.”

Luo Jianqing sensed something went wrong, “where is that snake......beast?”

Mo Qiu smiled winsomely, “oh, it was too hospitable. The snake roasted itself to be our food just in case we get hungry.”

Luo Jianqing, “......”

Who would believe this bullshit!?

They had a chat for a while, and from which Luo Jianqing found out that it was truly a coincidence that Mo Qiu was at Billion Beast Mountain as well. Reached the later stage of Nascent Soul Period, Mo Qiu met the bottleneck, so he came to the Billion Beast Mountain seeking for opportunities and sharpening his skills.

Mo Qiu heard the ring of Devil-sounded Bell at the moment Luo Jianqing was discovered by that Gold Sun Heaven Live Flood Dragon. He knew Luo Jianqing was in danger. The Devil-sounded Bell informed him the location as well, so he came as soon as possible.

According to what Mo Qiu told Luo Jianqing, he wasn’t in a hurry at all, wandered on the road and discovered him so came to check him out.

Nonetheless, Luo Jianqing couldn’t believe less on what Mo Qiu said. They spent three years together in the Liu Yan Valley. He knew Mo Qiu so well that he could tell – from the speed – that Mo Qiu was flying as fast as possible to come and help him. Luo Jianqing knew his friend of life and death was a person who always says things opposite with what he was thinking.

Luo Jianqing didn’t insist. He stared at Mo Qiu after they finished their dinner, kept the words in his mouth.

Seeing this, Mo Qiu sniggered, “just say what you want. I hate it when people faltering. Luo Jianqing, when did you learn this? Let me guess, you want to ask me how come I reached the late-stage of Nascent Soul Period within two years?”

Hesitated awhile, Luo Jianqing nodded his head lightly.

Mo Qiu shrugged, “because I’m a genius”.

Luo Jianqing lifted one eyebrow, “a genius with low-grade Spiritual Bones?”

Stood up immediately, Mo Qiu yelled at Luo Jianqing, “hey! You ungrateful bastard!”

Smiling, Luo Jianqing dragged him to sit down. “Come on, stop bragging. Seriously, I’m curious about what you’ve been through these two years”.

Disgruntled, Mo Qiu sat down. He asked Luo Jianqing after biting off a mouthful of juicy meat, “you suspect that I killed people and absorbed their Spiritual Power?”

Luo Jianqing shook his head with no hesitation, “I trust you”.

Mo Qiu was surprised by his reaction. He looked at Luo Jianqing with complicated gaze, and said after a long silence, “but what if I DID kill people? I’d been befalling massacre everywhere I go. I slaughtered countless cultivators the way butchers slaughtered sheep and cattle. Blood dyed my clothes scarlet as they are now. I killed everyone who stood in my way, mercilessly.”

Luo Jianqing’s smile slowly disappeared, for he felt that he couldn’t figure out whether Mo Qiu was joking or not.

They looked at each other in silence. Mo Qiu suddenly moved away his eyes and said, “I was joking”.

“I know.” Luo Jianqing responded, “if......what you said is true, one day when we meet on the battlefield, I will definitely kill you, but, other than this, Mo Qiu, you are, and always will be, my friend of life and death”.

Mo Qiu clenched his fist. He tossed half of the meat into the bonfire and let out a laugh, “you don’t believe my words, yet you are trying to mock me. I am a genius, really, Mo Qiu never killed anyone. I told you before. You know, being a Fiend Cultivator isn’t that easy. The more lives we took away, the more difficult it was to reach higher level of cultivation”.

Luo Jianqing nodded, “I know. My Master told me this before: that the Fiend Exalt killed too many people so he stuck at late-stage of Da Sheng Period for thousands of years, couldn’t find a way to reach a higher level. Master said that this might be the ceiling for the Fiend Exalt. It’s good for you not to follow his mistake.”

Mo Qiu’s smile froze, then said with weird voice, “whatever, I’m just smarter than you”.

Luo Jianqing took a gleam at him, “yeah, yeah, your cultivation is higher than me b two small Periods”.

Mo Qiu mocked him, “hey, you want a fight? Who saved you this time, huh?”

Speechless, Luo Jianqing nodded, and said in a serious tone, “it’s you. Cultivator Mo, thank you for saving my life!”

Mo Qiu waved his hand, “that’s not necessary”.

They chatted, Luo Jianqing said that he’s almost fully recovered. After reassured they were safe and there wasn’t any threat approaching, hesitated for a while, Luo Jianqing told Mo Qiu about the Godlike Pill.

Heard things about the Ninth-grade Pill, Mo Qiu was shocked, but after listening carefully to Luo Jianqing’s description, he believed the Ninth-grade Pill which was in the Interspatial Ring had already recovered some strength. The power of that pill was equal to a Tribulation Passage Period cultivator. If it found back its full strength, they stood no chance to win.

They discussed for a solution. Luo Jianqing offered instruments, while Mo Qiu offered power, together, they casted a Soul Confinement Array.

They spent ten days arranging this complicated high-level array. Luo Jianqing was a complete handyman. Mo Qiu was the one who knew the cast and performing the spells. After they set the array, they took a rest to cultivate their Spiritual Power.

They made an eye contact, then Luo Jianqing released the pill from its Interspatial Ring.

The moment that pill came out of the Interspatial Ring, delighting pill aura immediately embraced them.

Luo Jianqing said in a low voice, “confine!”

Suddenly, the Soul Confinement Array was dispersing splendid light. The aura was restricted in the array, didn’t leak out a wisp. A small bice pill was floating at the center of the array, didn’t move as if it fell into deep sleep.

Mo Qiu was inspecting it, while Luo Jianqing stepped forward and said, “sir, why are you hiding yourself?”

Silence, for a long time.

Luo Jianqing smiled, “if this is your response, then don’t blame me for erasing your consciousness!”

Luo Jianqing’s fingers started dancing in the air as if sealing the hand sign, then the next moment he heard a reluctant sigh. A misty figure flew out from the pill. Its body wasn’t that firm as Luo Jianqing first saw him in the mountain, already dim and nearly indiscernible. Carrying a simple zither behind its back, the Godlike Pill looked at Luo Jianqing with complicated gaze.

The pill ignored Mo Qiu completely, staring only at Luo Jianqing.

This was the first time Luo Jianqing really took a look at this Godlike Pill.

It turned out to be a comely scholar. One could not say he was stunningly handsome, but surely he had a winsome face. His gaze was like a cup of tea – dispersing light aura that enchanting everyone. Gaze intertwined in the air, Luo Jianqing suddenly felt himself drown into a weird zone, slowly lost his mind.

Then he heard Mo Qiu’s call, “Luo Jianqing, wake up!”
