Ming Shu quickly dismissed the impressions she had of Luo Yan.
She didnât understand Luo Yan.
The impressions she had of him might be wrong.
Ming Shu asked Steamed Bun to tie up the man and bring him back.
She returned to her Alliance Master Mansion quickly.
Rong Li was confused when he saw Ming Shu returning so fast. However, he needed to return too. If she realized that he came out, she might be angry at him.
Rong Li ran all the way back and managed to arrive before Ming Shu.
âAlliance Master...â Rong Li came out to welcome her.
Ming Shu grabbed his chin and kissed him. Then, she pushed him out of the room.
Rong Li: ???
What the hell is she doing!
Rong Li looked at the tightly shut door and frowned. Was she consoling him just now so that he wouldnât kick up a fuss and disturb her?
What happened?
Ming Shu took out Little Beastie.
âGuard the door for me.â
Little Beastie lay on the table lazily and hummed in reply.
Ming Shu sat on the bed and crossed her legs. She closed her eyes.
Little Beastie folded its paws in front of itself. It placed its head on its paws and stared at the person on the bed with its round black eyes.
A faint light started to envelop Ming Shu.
...
In a forest quite a distance away from the Alliance Master Mansion, a group of people set up a camp.
A young man stood out among the group of people. He had a Bagua disk in his hand. The Taichi symbol was in the middle. Its white portion seemed to be stained with blood.
âDoctor Ning, what happened to you? Why do you look so weird...â
The person beside the young man questioned him.
The young man known as Doctor Ning smiled. âGuess.â
âHow can I guess this? Donât tease me.â The person waved his hand. He didnât probe any further. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw something. He widened his eyes. âDoctor Ning... it is broken...â
The Bagua disk in Doctor Ningâs hand cracked and dropped to the ground.
Doctor Ning narrowed his eyes as he looked at the broken Bagua disk. âImpressive.â
âHuh? Whatâs impressive? Why did it break?â
Doctor Ning didnât reply to the person. The person retreated to the side fearfully.
How did she find out?
After some time, someone called him, âDoctor Ning, we are leaving soon.â
Doctor Ning retrieved the disk from the ground and got up slowly.
The person asked, âGuixin Clan is just ahead. Have you prepared your poison?â
âYes.â
âWe will leave now...â No one in the group dared to offend this doctor even though he didnât know any martial arts. Doctor Ning could kill all of them with his poison.
...
âSigh...â
Ming Shu let out a deep breath and opened her eyes slowly.
Little Beastie jumped over.
Trash-picker, what happened to you?
Ming Shu was frowning. The smile on her face was gone. She should have realized it long ago. They would not have just placed normal poisons in the weapons.
It was a hoax.
There was another power within her body. It didnât belong to her. If she hadnât noticed it in time, this power would grow stronger gradually and take control of her body...
âLuo Yan...â
Ming Shu looked down at Little Beastie.
Little Beastie shook its tail and rubbed its head against her fingers.
Ming Shu started to smile again. âIf you didnât steal my snacks, I would like you.â
Hmph!
Little Beastie sneered and jumped away from her hand. It disappeared in an instant.
Ming Shu couldnât help but laugh. This temper...
Ming Shu opened the door and walked out. Rong Li was pacing outside the room. The moment he heard the sound of the door opening, he looked over. âAlliance Master, are you all right?â
âI am fine.â
âReally?â Rong Li touched her body. Ming Shu wondered if he was concerned for her or if he just wanted to touch her.
She pulled his hand away. âWhy are you touching me?â
Rong Li said pitifully, âI am just worried for you.â
âThere is nothing to be worried about.â Ming Shu let go of his hand. She walked into the courtyard. When her back was facing Rong Li, Ming Shu smiled.
âI worry about you because I like you.â Rong Li followed her.
âDo you always have to say that you like me?â
âIf I donât say it, how will you know?â I want to confess to you every day. What can you do to me? If you donât like it, you can confess to me too!
âI will not like you no matter how many times you say that you like me.â
âAs long as I like you, it is enough.â
Rong Liâs voice was soft when he said this. Ming Shu heard a faint sob.
F**k.
Is he crying again?
Are his tears worthless?
Ming Shu hesitated for a moment before slowing down.
Rong Li was looking down so he bumped into Ming Shu.
âDo you know how to look at where you are going?â Ming Shu took the chance to turn around.
â... I know.â
Ming Shu closed in on him and took a look. He was not crying but his face was slightly pale. He seemed depressed.
As long as he doesnât cry, everything is fine.
Time to eat.
Rong Li saw Ming Shu nodding and then, she left.
Rong Li: ???
Are you not going to console me?
Are you going to look for the fat man again?
Is he more handsome than me?
Where is my knife!
...
When news about the annihilation of the Guixin Clan came, Ming Shu was discussing a new recipe with the chef king.
Steamed Bun rushed in with the piece of news.
Ming Shu was extremely calm. âThey were just annihilated. What is there to be concerned about? So many sects and clans got annihilated recently.â
Steamed Bun: â...â
The chef king: â...â
There were indeed a lot of sects and clans that got annihilated. Actually it was not right to say that they were annihilated. Only their headquarters were destroyed.
Since most of the sects and clans sent out their disciples to look for the Demonic Sect, not everyone in the sect or clan was killed.
However, destroying a sect or clanâs headquarters was the same as digging someoneâs ancestorâs grave.
It couldnât be forgiven.
Steamed Bun told himself that he needed to get used to the alliance masterâs speech.
He coughed. âAlliance Master, do you think that the Demonic Sect did it?â
âI donât know. I didnât do it.â
â...â
Although that was the truth, the people outside wouldnât think of it this way. They think that you colluded with the Demonic Sect!
In the next few days, more and more headquarters got destroyed.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Demonic Sect felt tired from taking the blame.
They didnât do it.
So...
Ming Shu took the blame.
She was a good alliance master.
Thus, the heroes of the pugilist world stopped looking for the Demonic Sect. They gathered outside the Alliance Master Mansion.
They wanted to kill the alliance master to save the pugilist world.
As Ming Shu was powerful, no one dared to be the first to attack her. Everyone just crowded outside the Alliance Master Mansion.
The leaders of the sects and clans gathered together to think of a plan.
âWe have so many people. If we attack her together, we can win.â
âWe had a lot of people the last time too. However, we were still unable to enter the Alliance Master Mansion, right?
â...â
The atmosphere turned eerily quiet.
âShall we use fire?â
If they couldnât fight her directly, they could attack her indirectly.
This suggestion got approval from everyone.
They had no other choices left anyway.
