    Chapter 44

    Shen Wanqing quickly got up and was about to run away, but her shoulders were held down by Xie Wuyan, who made her sit back down.

    Xie Wuyan’s tone was very light and cold: “Why are you running? Don’t you want to continue watching?”

    Shen Wanqing: “No, I wasn’t watching.”

    Xie Wuyan: “Then what were you doing?”

    “I was spurning.” Her tone was very cadenced and expressive, “How could a man do such a thing, what a moral decline in our world!”

    After speaking, she did not forget to serve tea diligently: “Big Brother Xie, what are you doing here?”

    “I came to find something.”

    To find something?

    Under Xie Wuyan’s coercion, Shen Wanqing sat down with tears in her eyes.

    She took a deep breath and started talking nonsense.

    “I can’t believe the guqin player has grown out his nails! What indecency! Unlike Big Brother Xie, your knuckles are slender, just from a glance you can feel the power within. This is a hand worthy of admiration!”

    Xie Wuyan: “…”

    “I can’t believe the dancer has an open collar, and just from a glance you can see how slender and weak he is! What indecency! Unlike Big Brother Xie, you are strong and have healthy chest muscles. This is a chest worthy of admiration!”

    Xie Wuyan began to regret letting Shen Wanqing talk.

    “The musician’s voice is very feminine just from listening once, what indecency! Unlike Big Brother Xie, your voice is full of magnetism, sexy, hoarse and deep, which makes one’s heart skip a beat. This is a voice worthy of admirat…”

    “Shen Wanqing.” Xie Wuyan rubbed his temples and gritted his teeth, “You can go.”

    Shen Wanqing was elated: “Big Brother Xie, goodbye!”

    Shen Wanqing, who barely managed to escape, couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, this may just be the charm of language.

    After going upstairs and waiting for a while, the tower owner arrived.

    She still carried her graceful demeanor. She was escorted to the main seat and sat down. She glanced at Shen Wanqing with a dignified expression, her attitude and tone were much colder than before.

    Advertisements

    Even after learning that Cultivator He was the mastermind and had died, the owner’s reaction was still very calm.

    She nodded lightly, then sent someone to fetch the prostitution contract, and shredded it in front of Shen Wanqing: “Okay, thank you, immortal, for your help, I will naturally fulfill the agreement and return Miss Jiang’s freedom.”

    Things went unexpectedly well.

    Shen Wanqing stared at the owner for a long time, then stood up without saying a word, about to leave. However, when she walked to the door, she stopped again, turned back around to look at her, and suddenly laughed: “Tower head, today, it seems like you are a completely different person.”

    “Why, is it strange?” The tower owner held her cup of tea, and although her lips were upturned, the smile was very shallow, “Young lady, you have only known me for a few days, what difference is there?”

    “I’m just saying,” Shen Wanqing said in a relaxed tone, as if she was chatting casually, “I still remember when we eliminated the Dream Eating Demon last time, you were quite cautious. You made sure that it had been eliminated completely before even letting us go. But today, this is such a big situation, I didn’t expect you to be so agreeable and not even ask for evidence.”

    The tower head didn’t speak, but her smile gradually faded. She put down the teacup in her hand, and said coldly: “Immortal, your words are ridiculing me too much, my heart has just been put at rest since things have been peaceful recently. Plus, Cultivator He indeed looks like the type who is very loyal, it seems like something he would do.”

    “That’s true, it was presumptuous of me.” Shen Wanqing laughed generously, pushed open the door and took a step, suddenly stopped, and turned around, “However, I remember I only told you that Cultivator He was the mastermind who took the souls of these people, I don’t think I said, what he was doing this for. Tower head, your phrase about loyalty—”

    Shen Wanqing’s eyes curved: “It’s hard for me to not call you clever.”

    The tower owner was slightly startled, and her movements stagnated in place.

    Shen Wanqing didn’t talk further and walked away.

    Last night, when she had seen the Governor’s personal mama burning the goose-yellow dress in the backyard, Shen Wanqing had already guessed that the Governor most likely had also been involved in this matter.

    Advertisements

    Although from Cultivator He’s attitude, it seems that he thought that he was the only mastermind.

    But in fact, after careful deduction, from the time he came to the Full Moon Tower, the whole situation seemed to be pushed in a direction by a pair of invisible big hands.

    Shen Wanqing acted as bait to attract the Dream Eating Demon—they couldn’t leave immediately after getting rid of the demon—coincidentally came to live at the Governor’s residence—the Governor’s wife was possessed and attacked Feng Yaoqing.

    It was far from enough for this plan to rely on Cultivator He only.

    Without either the tower owner or the Governor, this plan would not have been able to proceed smoothly.

    When Shen Wanqing left the Full Moon Tower, she didn’t see Xie Wuyan.

    After waiting for a while, she didn’t see him come out, so she went back to the Governor’s residence first.

    However, as soon as she entered the gate of the Governor’s residence, before she could return to her room, she was led to the study.

    It looks like the tower owner had sent someone over to tell the Governor about it.

    The Governor stood with his back towards her for a long time without saying a word, then turned around and looked into her eyes. After a long silence, he said, “Miss Shen, let me ask you a question.”

    Shen Wanqing: “Please.”

    “Xiu Niang, is there really no chance of resurrection?”

    Advertisements

    “No, Xiu Niang’s soul has been reincarnated already,” Shen Wanqing looked at him and remained silent for a long time before saying, “Governor, this is her choice. You have been with her for so many years, how could you not know, she does not want to resurrect by killing innocent people.”

    The Governor closed his eyes and was silent for a long time: “I see.”

    The Governor had long known the identity of Cultivator He.

    Because of the pouch he carried on his sword, the pattern sewed on it was that of Xiu Niang’s work.

    He had heard before that Xiu Niang had rescued a Taoist priest.

    He knew that this was the Taoist priest.

    The Governor did not know what Cultivator He was going to do, but he knew what he, himself was going to do.

    This was the reason why Cultivator He had been able to do all this without leaving any traces in the Full Moon Tower for so long.

    Although the tower head invited Taoist priests to eliminate the demon on the surface, in fact, she had been secretly cooperating with the actions of Cultivator He.

    Including that day, the Dream Eating demon was able to enter Shen Wanqing’s body so easily because of the cup of tea that was infused with the spell when the tower head had greeted them.

    The piercing of the heart of the Madame was an unfortunate accident.

    The sadness of the Governor that day was for Xiu Niang, who could not be resurrected.

    But all this would become unknown with the death of Cultivator He.

    Someone who everyone loved so deeply, had left already.

    A story worthy of touching hearts, but Shen Wanqing’s heart remained calm.

    In this story, every single person was only being moved by themselves, wanting the dead to revive. But they didn’t know whether Xiu Niang, whose soul was trapped in the Soul Lock Jade, actually was moved or in pain to see so many living people die just because of her.

    She turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as she took a few steps, she was suddenly stopped by the Governor: “Miss Shen, I beg you. Don’t tell him about this.”

    Shen Wanqing knew that this “him” was referring to Xu Ziyin.

    She didn’t speak, and this sentence seemed to suddenly make her think of something in an instant.

    After a long silence, she spoke softly: “Governor, after getting along with Young Master Xu, I always felt that he was not the type of person who would be addicted to brothels and spend his days indulging in alcohol and pleasure. And from the beginning, I didn’t think that he liked me that much either.”

    Xu Ziyin’s admiration for her was too sudden and unfounded.

    So from the beginning, Shen Wanqing was somewhat resistant.

    The Governor was stunned for a while, opened his mouth, and seemed to want to say something, but soon, he seemed to understand the meaning behind Shen Wanqing’s words.

    “I didn’t know at first why Young Master Xu did this.” Shen Wanqing turned around, “Now I understand, maybe he had already noticed, but he had just pretended not to know anything.”

    Thinking about it now.

    Xu Ziyin clung to her all day back then, maybe it was because he had discovered something was wrong with Cultivator He, so he didn’t want to give him any chance to strike.

    But these were just guesses that no one can prove.

    Feng Yaoqing’s injury had been mostly healed.

    After two more days of rest, the group would prepare to go on the road again.

    The bamboo tube that He Xiangsheng had given to Ji Feichen contained a piece of broken jade. It probably was a piece of the Solitary Light Sword that had fallen off.

    So, as long as you induced the jade, its spiritual power would direct you to the way.

    It’s just that this jade could only react when touched by a natural pure power, so no one could use it except for the male and female protagonists.

    This was also the reason why in the original novel, Xie Wuyan hid himself and followed the hero and heroine all the way, trying his best to protect them.

    Shen Wanqing secretly tried it.

    No reaction at all.

    She was so angry that she started fighting with the system, how could her power not be pure?

    But the whole day passed, and Xie Wuyan never came back.

    He disappeared without a trace ever since he went to the Full Moon Tower, telling her that he was looking for the thing that He Xiangsheng had left behind.

    On the other hand, the cute couple Xu Ziyin and Jiang Shujun had come over here several times.

    The two of them were a little afraid of Xie Wuyan, and when they heard that he was not here, they happily ran to Shen Wanqing’s room every now and then.

    The two of them sang the same tune, one would recite poetry, and the other would recite fragments of their newly written novels, which caused indelible spiritual pollution in Shen Wanqing’s mind.

    When Shen Wanqing was about to collapse into a chaotic and evil state and wanting to murder, Xie Wuyan finally came back.

    Came back with a bloody smell.

    He threw the chattering lovebirds away, and then threw a thick book towards Shen Wanqing. The cover of the book was still stained with blood and rubbed against her body.

    Perhaps it was because she had stayed with Xie Wuyan for a long time, Shen Wanqing had already forgotten how violent this ancestor could be. So suddenly seeing him covered in bloodthirst, she couldn’t help but freeze for a while, unable to give a reaction.

    She looked down at the book on her body.

    There were no words on the cover of the book, but as long as one page was opened, a strong spiritual force would surge and churn on the page.

    Immediately afterwards, some characters floated on the blank page.

    “This is……”

    “A spiritual cultivation book.” Xie Wuyan walked to the bedside towards her very naturally, rested his arms on the back of his head, closed his eyes, “For you.”

    Shen Wanqing soon discovered that this book was not made of ordinary paper.

    Because, all the characters on the page could be updated at any time.

    It was more like a “spiritual cultivation spell forum” than a book.

    The spiritual book was made out of the fur of a rhinoceros, which was rare in this world. Generally, it would be kept in the hands of some large clans and inner disciples. If it were to be in the hands of outsiders, most of them were bought from the auction house at an extremely large price, and it was rare to see them.

    This book summarized many methods of spell cultivation, and the experience of previous practitioners, and also differentiated them according to many different types.

    The most important thing was that the person who held the spiritual book could update the content on it, and all the owners of such a book could see it too.

    Without talking about other things, this was indeed a very suitable tool for Shen Wanqing’s cultivation.

    She closed the book, glanced at Xie Wuyan beside her, was silent for a long time, then reached out and poked his arm: “Big Brother Xie?”

    Xie Wuyan frowned, and after a long time he slowly lifted his eyes and looked at her: “Huh?”

    “Is this what you said you were looking for yesterday?”

     “Yeah.” Xie Wuyan still talked succinctly. After answering, he closed his eyes again.

    Shen Wanqing: “How did you find it?”

    Xie Wuyan: “Just found it randomly.”

    Shen Wanqing: “But…”

    “If you continue to ask,” Xie Wuyan said impatiently, “I will throw you into Jiang Shujun’s room and let you listen to her reciting her novel.”

    Shen Wanqing fell silent immediately.

    Xie Wuyan said it very nonchalantly, but from the bloody smell on his body, it could be seen that he must have expended a lot of his cultivation.

    In actuality, he had just simply come to think that the spells He Xiangsheng used were very rare, in addition to the fact that he had found a method for resurrection. Plus, he was the eldest disciple of the Heavenly Dao Palace, it was very likely that he would have a spiritual cultivation book on him.

    But he went to search for it and didn’t find it.

    Then Xie Wuyan remembered that there was a Jingdong auction house in the east of the Rong City. Usually, one or two spiritual cultivation books would be kept in such auction houses, so he went to visit.

    The monks there were a bit annoying, so he killed a few of them along the way.

    It really wasn’t that much of a hassle for him.

    Shen Wanqing glanced at Xie Wuyan who looked a little tired beside her, unsure if he had fallen asleep already. She stretched out her hand and pulled the quilt over, carefully covering it over him.

    After doing this, she leaned against the head of the bed and quietly stared at Xie Wuyan.

    Shen Wanqing could see that the spells recorded in the spiritual cultivation book were useless to Xie Wuyan, instead, they were very suitable for her own learning and cultivation.

    After realizing this, she felt a strange emotion in her heart, it made her chest feel sore and numb.

    Shen Wanqing looked at the spiritual cultivation book and opened it again.

    All the spells were arranged in difficulty with different levels, and many areas were specially divided into several sections such as “sword cultivation” and “medicinal cultivation”.

    There were also several categories, such as: [Spell Learning] [Cultivation Skills] [Cultivation Community Anecdotes]…

    Wait.

    Cultivation Community Anecdotes

    Shen Wanqing secretly glanced at Xie Wuyan, and quietly erected the book with the book cover facing him.

    She then used her spiritual power to control it and chose the category “Cultivation Community Anecdote”

    She felt very ashamed that she was actually using a studybook as a storybook to read.

    But women were naturally curious about gossip, so she couldn’t help but click on this category that definitely would contain all the latest gossip.

    [Translator’s Note: Did you guys guess there was still more left to the story of Xiu Niang? Our FL is so smart, figuring all this out on her own. By the way, I am very sorry but only one update this week, and I might take a break next week because of assignments 🙁 I will try my best to get more out to you all after!]

      I hope there will be an epilogue of reincarnated Xiu Niang. Born in a well off family (but not too rich, because too much money is also a problem), with parents, siblings, relative, friends who love her
