âA school with my teacher around is the best school.â
Li Ziqiâs admiration for Sun Mo was brimming out from her words.
âI concur!â
The reason why Tantai Yutang had acknowledged Sun Mo back then was out of spite that he didnât get to live for long and out of fun. However, he now felt that it was the best decision he had made in so many years.
As he often received Sun Moâs living blood technique massage, although the poison in his body hadnât been removed, they didnât aggravate either. He was clearly able to live for two or three more years than previously anticipated.
âI concur!â
Jiang Leng, who was a person of few words, also smiled and nodded.
Lu Zhiruoâs hands were clapping very quickly. âEldest Martial Sister said it well!â
This scene made Jin Mujie feel extremely envious.
The greatest sense of achievement for a teacher was to let their personal disciples boast about them proudly at any moment.
...
âSect Lord, thereâs an urgent mail for you.â
The secretary entered the office with graceful steps.
Liang Hongda was seated in front of the table, trimming a pot. Hearing that, he frowned, âHow many times have I told you? Iâm just the Vice Sect Lord.â
âIn my heart, youâre like the Sect Lord, putting in great effort in things.â
The secretary gave a compliment that was sweet as honey with her little mouth. However, she cursed in her heart over how hypocritical he was.
The previous secretary didnât know any better and always addressed Liang Hongda with the word âviceâ before his title. The person ended up being fired in just a few days.
âHow would I dare to compare with the Sect Lord?â
Liang Hongda said humbly, but his radiant expression showed that he liked the flattery. âWhose letter is it?â
âHe Wei!â
The secretary said this and then handed over the letter with both hands.
There was a white feather attached to the letter, representing that it was an urgent mail.
âWhy is it him again?â
Liang Hongda frowned. In the recent week, he had received three letters from He Wei. âDoes this guy not want his job anymore?â
âMaybe thereâs really something serious.â The secretary smiled. âOr maybe that Sun Mo has done something astonishing again?â
âWhat other things could be more astonishing than clearing the sixth stage of the canyon?â
Liang Hongdaâs lips twitched as he tore up the letter. âHe couldnât have comprehended the Battlegod Catalog, right?â
âThe Sect Lord must be joking. How is it possible for Sun Mo to do it when itâs something that even you canât do?â
The secretary flattered him.
She had no idea how many murals Liang Hongda had comprehended at the Battlegod Canyon, but saying flattering things couldnât go wrong. Moreover, she must try to wear an admiring expression as much as possible.
(Sigh! Itâs really not easy to be a secretary! If I knew this back then, I would have continued to be a teacher and not choose to enter the Saint Gate.)
However, this was just a passing thought of the secretary. If given a second chance, sheâd still choose to find a way to enter the Saint Gate.
After all, this was a public-sector job, a sturdy job that could support one for life.
âOnly uncultured people like He Wei would be this surprised when they meet someone who can enter the seventh stage of the canyon. I donât have the time to comprehend the murals. If I do, by now...â
Liang Honda received this compliment calmly. After all, when he was young, he was also a genius who received the attention of everyone. However, he soon was unable to continue his words.
It was because the words on the letter seriously pierced his eyes.
âThatâs true. Given your current strength, you might be able to comprehend the Battlegod Catalog after spending three years, no, even just one to two years.â
The secretary felt regretful for Liang Hongda. âItâs a pity that thereâs too much work here and you arenât able to leave.â
The secretary felt ashamed and a little worried to be saying things that went against her true feelings. (I wonât go down to hell and get my tongue pulled out after I die, right? But why is Liang Hongda not showing any reaction? Was my flattery done wrongly? No, I must find a way to fix things!)
Just as the secretary was about to speak up, Liang Hongda suddenly stood up, bringing the letter close up to his eyes, while he wore an astonished expression, almost reading one letter at a time.
âWhat the hell?â
Liang Hongdaâs upper eyelids were almost popping out. âSun Mo has comprehended the Battlegod Catalog? Is He Wei blind?â
Meow meow meow?
The secretary was also stunned speechless upon hearing this. The Battlegod Canyonâs murals had existed for several ten thousand years and to date, no one had been able to comprehend them. It didnât take much thinking to know how difficult it was.
But now, someone had succeeded?
âWas it written wrongly?â
The secretary analyzed.
âItâs definitely wrong!â
Liang Hongda instinctively didnât believe it, but his rationale told him that He Wei neither had the need nor dare to joke on such a serious matter.
âQuick, prepare the horse!â
This concerned a top-notch divine art and Liang Hongda couldnât sit still.
âOh, oh.â
The secretary ran for a little and suddenly stopped, turning back to ask, âShould we inform the Sect Lord?â
âAre you stupid? Do you think the Sect Lord wouldnât know about such an important matter?â
Liang Hongda scolded. After the secretary left, he paced about in the room, his mind in a complete mess.
How could Sun Mo comprehend the Battlegod Catalog?
Although they had only met a few times, Liang Hongda admired Sun Mo. However, as Sun Mo didnât take the initiative to offer his services to him, Liang Hongda didnât try to recruit him either. He was planning to leave Sun Mo hanging for a little and then step out to help after Sun Mo was given a brutal beating by society, doing him a great favor.
But now, after what Sun Mo had done, he wouldnât be able to get his turn to do Sun Mo a favor anymore.
Plenty of major characters in the great teacher world would want to recruit him.
Sigh, wasnât he being too much of a genius?
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Liang Hongda +500. Respect (1,100/10,000).
Liang Hongda suddenly felt very regretful. He shouldnât have gotten on his high horse and should have treated Sun Mo with courtesy.
...
In a study with extremely simple furniture, a middle-aged man stood in front of the window, having his hands behind his back. He was lost in thoughts as he looked at the stars in the sky.
âSun Mo and Battlegod Catalog? Hehe, my daughter doesnât have good judgment, but her luck is really exorbitantly good!â
The middle-aged man shook his head and laughed helplessly. âIâll let her stay by his side for a little longer then. She might really be able to return with great achievements from her studies.â
After making this decision, the middle-aged man placed this matter aside and continued with his work. The people from the Dark Dawn hadnât been behaving well recently.
That Dawn Sovereign seemed like he was going to do something big again.
As for the Battlegod Catalog, it was just a cultivation art. It wouldnât be able to control the world, so he had no interest in it.
...
âUncle Bai, Iâll be leaving tomorrow!â
Sun Mo sat in the teahouse, drinking coffee. âCan you give me some of this white tea?â
âWhat are you saying? Iâve already gifted them to you.â
Bai Cha stopped working and sat down opposite Sun Mo, sipping on some coffee with him.
For very, very long, neither of them said anything.
âArenât you curious?â
Sun Mo put down the empty teacup.
âIâm just an old man who sells tea. What use would it be for me to be curious about the Battlegod Catalog?â
Bai Cha chuckled and picked up the teapot, wanting to fill up Sun Moâs cup. âMoreover, even if you were to tell me, I wouldnât understand.â
âIâm not drinking anymore. Otherwise, I wonât be able to sleep at night.â
Sun Mo got up. âWeâll meet again if we are fated!â
âEn, see you!â
Bai Cha took in a puff from his pipe. âThe sunset here is very beautiful. Before you go, you can consider heading up the mountain again and take a look.â
âI plan on doing that.â
After Sun Mo bade his goodbye, he headed for the mountain. It was now the early autumn, and all the maple leaves on the mountain were showing signs of turning red.
There was someone at the top of the mountain. It was Jin Mujie.
She sat on a big rock, looking at the mountains in the far distance, seeming to be thinking of something bad. She seemed to be wearing a worrying expression, looking like a female ghost who had died an aggrieved death, making oneâs heart feel pity for her.
Sun Mo walked over and his gaze moved downward uncontrollably.
The blowing wind was like a loverâs hand, lifting up the hems of her clothing, revealing her fair ankles.
âThey say that sunset is lifeâs final glow and itâs unlucky. But I like it.â
Sun Mo stood by Jin Mujieâs side.
Jin Mujie didnât reply.
Sun Mo was instantly stunned. As someone who would only play games on the weekends, being alone by himself even if he were to go watch a movie, he was really not good at chatting up ladies.
Sun Mo scratched his head and was pondering on how to make the atmosphere more romantic when he heard Jin Mujieâs light laugh.
âAre you trying to console me?â
Jin Mujieâs big and beautiful eyes looked toward Sun Mo.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âUhh!â
Sun Mo subconsciously averted his gaze. Being looked at by her like this made him cower a little.
âHehe, youâre someone whoâs learned the Battlegod Catalog. Shouldnât you be dauntless like the ancient Battle God? Why are you scared of a womanâs gaze?â
Jin Mujie joked.
âItâs because I donât want to lose you that Iâm worried that I might offend you if Iâm not careful.â
Sun Mo quickly explained. He didnât want to be treated as a coward.
Jin Mujie was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed up.
âHmm?â
Sun Mo was surprised. (What is the deal with your expression? Wait a minute, she couldnât have misunderstood, could she? Iâm not confessing. Iâm saying that I treat you as a friend, so Iâll have more reservations when I talk. I fear that I might say the wrong things and make you feel displeased, thereby losing you as a friend.)
âTeacher Jin... I...â
Before Sun Mo explained, Jin Mujie waved her hand.
âI understand what you mean. Iâm not that much of a narcissist that Iâd think youâd confess to me!â
Jin Mujie smiled in self-mockery.
âNo, Teacher Jin, youâre too modest. I do want to do it, but I just donât dare to...â
Sun Mo was starting to speak a little incoherently. Firstly, Jin Mujieâs self-mockery made him want to console her. Secondly, he really didnât dare to think of it...
In modern society, Sun Mo would probably be scolded for being a toad that was lusting after a swanâs flesh just from chatting up a great beauty like her, let alone asking for their Wechat account.
Confess?
Thatâd be him not having a clear estimation of himself!
âShush!â
Jin Mujie put her fair index finger upright to her lips. âI appreciate your intention in wanting to console me, but you shouldnât say such things recklessly. After all, youâre my brother-in-law.â
âBrother-in-law?â
Sun Mo was stunned. (When have I treated you as my older sister? Why donât I know that?)
âWhy? Xinhui calls me older sister. Are you unwilling to do so?â
Jin Mujie feigned anger.
âNo!â
Sun Mo quickly shook his head.
âThen come call me older sister.â
Jin Mujie poked Sun Moâs chest with her finger. âHurry up. What are you hesitating for?â
âOld... Older Sister!â
Sun Mo said this very stiffly.
âTsk, itâs clear that you donât sound willing.â
Jin Mujie twitched her beautiful lips.
âSister Jin, Iâm wrong. Please let me off.â
Sun Mo smiled bitterly.
âHaha, the new battle god is apologizing to me. I suddenly feel that Iâm so amazing!â
Jin Mujie forced a smile.
âNew Battle God?â
Sun Mo frowned.
âThatâs right. Youâve comprehended the Battlegod Catalog, so youâre the new Battle God!â
As Jin Mujie said this, she couldnât help but put out her index finger and poked Sun Mo with force. âYouâre so talented in battle. Why not give up on becoming a great teacher?â
After saying this, Jin Mujie stared at Sun Mo with a scorching gaze. For an instant, she really hoped to hear him agreeing to this.
(Do you know that with an existence like you around, itâll make us feel especially inferior and disappointed?)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Jin Mujie +1,000. Respect (9,660/10,000).
