Chapter 020 “System: Heh heh heh, reversing the CP ah” (08/09)
“Master Xi ……”
Xie Chenyang didn’t listen to those voices of entreaty. Passing his sabre to the guard next to him, he took Wei Jin’s hand and marched towards the gate.
Only when no one was around did Wei Jin ask, “Are you really not going to work with them anymore?”
“Not anymore.” Xie Chenyang snorted coldly. ”If I stay any longer, I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist chopping them all to death.”
Although it was true that he was trying to avenge the deaths of the Sabre Sect, it was also true that the Demonic Sect had been terrorizing the Wulin, and all the major sects and factions had been harmed by the Demonic Sect. An alliance between them to destroy the Demonic Sect together would only benefit them and was without risk.
They made it seem as if he was begging them for help.
According to the original plot, the Demonic Sect was growing in strength. Without the supply of weapons from the Sabre Sect, the other sects were hesitant to fight back and were defeated by the Demonic Sect one by one. Only in the end did they panic and want to make an alliance between the Demonic Sect and the Wulin sects, which made them worse off.
In the end, the imperial court took the opportunity to purge the Wulin.
“Hey, Ah-Jin, the Demonic Sect not only jeopardizes the Wulin but also plagues the people. Does the imperial court have any intention of sending troops?”
Wei Jin’s eyes flashed. “Yes.”
“Then why don’t we cooperate? I know that the imperial court has its own weapon forges , but honestly, compared to our Sabre Sect’s weapons, they’re still inferior.” Xie Chenyang squeezed his hand. “Let’s have our Sabre Sect provide weapons for the generals and take down the Demonic Sect first, then we can cooperate to straighten out the Wulin.”
Wei Jin was somehow unable to read him.
“The Sabre Sect is also a Wulin sect.”
“I know.” Xie Chenyang raised his lips. “Sooner or later, the imperial court and the Wulin will have to face each other. I’ll take the first step.”
Wei Jin: “You want to submit to the imperial court?”
“Can Ah-Jin represent the imperial court?”
“I’ll send a message to my big brother and you can discuss it with him.”
“Your elder brother?”
“He is a First Rank General.”
— Martial training ground. —
The Blazing Sun Sect Master was the first to stand up. “This Xi Yang; he truly doesn’t put us in his eyes! Compared to his father, it’s almost like he has no respect for anyone!”
“Yes, calling it a negotiation for an alliance, but ending it before it even started.”
“Is it not because Blazing Sun Sect can’t even be bothered to manage its own disciples, being infiltrated by Demonic Sect spies and not even knowing about it?”
“But Xi Yang did go a bit too far–just look at what he said! Clearly he is chasing us away! If we don’t leave, we are also going to be billed …… Simply unsightly.”
Violet Flame Sect Master: “Wasn’t it because you all saw him as a junior and disregarded him from the start?”
“He is a junior ……”
The Blazing Sun Sect Master got up with a jerk. “I, Blazing Sun Sect, will take leave first. I don’t want to be bothered with people coming up to ask for food and lodging fees!” After saying that, he flicked his sleeve and took off. As soon as he left the training grounds, he gave his disciple a kick. “How did that Demonic Sect spy get mixed in?”
One after another, people left.
The master of the Purple Flame Mansion looked at the guards of the Sabre Sect who hadn’t left yet, and quietly asked, “Could you please ask your master to join us so that we can–”
Chang Lu interrupted him, “There is no need. The Sect Master is true to his word since he said that he will not be forming an alliance anymore, then there will not be an alliance.”
“Alas.” The Violet Flame Mansion Lord also got up and left. In her heart, she said, ‘This Xi Yang is still a bit young in the end and is a bit too impulsive.’
In the end, only the White Crane Valley people remained in the martial arts practice ground.
White Crane Valley disciple: “Young Valley Master, let’s go too!”
They had cleaned up for the famous Sabre Sect and devoted themselves to their work, but as a result, that Xi Yang failed their Young Valley Master! Not only that–when he left, he obviously didn’t put their White Crane Valley in his eyes either and just left their Young Valley Master on his own!
“If we don’t leave, people will come to collect food and accommodation fees from us!”
Not thinking about how much money their White Crane Valley had spent on the funeral clothes, coffins, stone monuments, etc. for those hundreds of people!
Ruan Zhou said helplessly, “It’s not us that Ah-Yang is targeting.”
Chang Lu stepped forward and politely performed a Jianghu salute. “The words of the Sect Master are only directed at other sects; the White Crane Valley is not included. The Sabre Sect is mindful of the outstanding help from the White Crane Valley and will never dare to forget it… The kitchen is already preparing the meal, so please make sure that all of you stay.”
Ruan Zhou nodded.
Chang Lu: “The two lords of the manor will pay a personal visit to the young valley master later.”
Ruan Zhou got up. “Good, then we will return to our courtyard first.”
Only after they had all left did Chang Lu head to his Sect Master’s courtyard.
He arrived just as a man was receiving orders to withdraw.
Chang Lu approached the Sect Master and spoke about the conversation he had with Ruan Zhou.
Xie Chenyang gave his appreciation. “Although I hinted at him with my eyes when I left, he didn’t understand; you did a good job.”
Chang Lu bowed his head. “This is what a disciple should do.”
Now that Chang Lu was a disciple of the Sabre Sect, he knew that White Crane Valley had done a great favor for the Sabre Sect. Naturally, he would not let the people of White Crane Valley misunderstand.
After Chang Lu left, Wei Jin went back to practicing with his jian.
Xie Chenyang sat back on a recliner, holding a fan in one hand and waving it lightly: [Good system, do you still offer credit?]
System: “What do you want?”
[To exchange for something. It’s a thank-you gift to White Crane Valley.]
System: “Casting them a large batch of weapons is already enough.”
[It’s not enough.]
System: “What do you want to exchange?”
[A formation that’s a little better than their strongest now, and a medicine prescription that’s a little better than what they have now.]
White Crane Valley was known for its formations and medicine, so these two things he was gifting must be the things they wanted the most.
Making a batch of weapons would be considered a complimentary gift.
System: “……That would require almost a hundred points. I won’t charge you interest, but you’ll be doing this world a favor for nothing again.”
[It’s okay. I don’t like to owe others favors. And one world’s points to return this favor is not bad.]
System: “Alright.”
Originally, the points were meant to give some help to the host’s training and career, and as long as his points weren’ negative in the end, it wasn’t a violation of the rules.
Even if his balance was negative, the system could still make up for it with his own energy.
The system had always believed in making friends with the hosts, not making enemies if it could.
And for that reason, it had never been hassled by the previous host and had even received gifts.
System: Worthy of being me, an old system!
Wei Jin practiced with his jian for an hour and after freshening up, he walked with Xie Chenyang toward the courtyard where the White Crane Valley was staying.
“Aren’t you tired after watching for an hour?”
Hearing Wei Jin’s light tone, Xie Chenyang’s comment that he hadn’t been watching all the time almost came out of his mouth, only to change in his throat. “As long as it’s you, I will never get tired of watching it regardless.”
[Give a few out of 10?]
System: “Ten points.”
Wei Jin: “Oh? Didn’t you sleep for a small half hour in the middle?”
The rest of the time had been spent in a daze, and the time Xie Chenyang spent truly concentrating on watching Wei Jin practice sword training was less than fifteen minutes.
System: “Oh, exempt.”
Xie Chenyang vainly held back a sentence. [Even if I’m asleep, you’re still in my dreams!]
System: “Really?”
[Although I don’t remember what I dreamed about, it was most likely him.]
When they arrived, Ruan Zhou was sitting and playing Go1Go is played on a rectangular board and black and white round pieces . There are 19 vertical and horizontal lines and 361 intersections on the regular board. The two players take turns placing their pieces at the intersections of the board. They can only place one piece at a time and cannot move it after it is placed. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins. Because the black player has the advantage of going first, it is stipulated that the black player must give the white player a point penalty at the end of the game . Competition rules set by different countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea are slightly different. [4 ][6] — Baidu with a White Crane Valley disciple.
When Ruan Zhou saw Xie Chenyang, his brows softened. “You’re here.”
The disciple sitting across from him did not make any unnecessary movements and obediently left the courtyard.
Xie Chenyang: “……” I think he doesn’t want to see me.
Xie Chenyang sat next to Ruan Zhou, took out two pieces of paper, and handed them to Ruan Zhou. “White Crane Valley has helped us a lot at the Sabre Sect; this is a gift of thanks.”
Ruan Zhou reached out and took them. When he looked at them, the expression on his face became serious. “Is Ah-Yang really giving these to me?”
Xie Chenyang: “Otherwise?”
Wei Jin sat calmly between them, staring at the Go board.
Ruan Zhou carefully folded them into his chest pocket and bowed towards Xie Chenyang. “What we have done is nothing more than a show of respect. It is also what my mother wished for. This formation and formula given by Ah-Yang is worth thousands of gold. I can’t resist the attraction. In the future, whenever the Sabre Sect needs help, I, the White Crane Valley, will never refuse.”
He took out a token.
“This is the White Crane Token. With it, you can enter the White Crane Valley; as long as you don’t go against the principles of the White Crane Valley, you can do anything.”
Xie Chenyang: “Ha, there’s no need to be so exaggerated. When I say it’s a gift of thanks, it’s a gift of thanks. In addition to that, we’ll also be crafting a batch of weapons for you guys. If you think of what weapons you want, you can make a list and give it to Ling Yi.”
“This ……”
“What the heck is this and that? You go and think of a list. This Go game, Ah-Jin and I will come and help you guys win.”
Ruan Zhou was helpless and got up to go back to his room.
Xie Chenyang pushed Wei Jin, “C’mon, c’mon, lets play a game of Go. I’ll let you see my Go skills!”
Wei Jin glanced at him, rotated the position of the board, picked up the pieces, and played a move.
System: “You also know how to play Go?”
[I don’t know how. Quick, tell me how to play.]
System: “…… ” You can’t and you’re still so outspoken?
Xie Chenyang pinched a Go piece and grinned. “Ah-Jin, let’s make it a bit of a gamble–the loser has to unconditionally obey the winner tonight. How about it?”
Wei Jin: “Alright.”
Xie Chenyang was happy: [System, system, system! Good system! System father!]
System: “I know, I know.”
When Xie Chenyang played his second stone, Wei Jin’s gaze on him became slightly deeper.
As time slowly passed, his eyes grew deeper and deeper.
Xie Chenyang didn’t realize it and was still urging. “Hurry up, hurry up, you’re going to lose.”
After a few more moves, Wei Jin lowered his hand. “I lost.”
Xie Chenyang stroked his chin. “Then you’re …… hee hee hee, tonight.”
Seeing him laugh like a fool, Wei Jin coldly said, “This is not your Go skill.”
Wei Jin cast a cold glare at him and got up to walk away.
Xie Chenyang hurriedly chased after him. “Hey Ah-Jin, listen to my explanation!”
[What to do, what to do?!]
When playing the game of Go, he had thought that Wei Jin might notice something was wrong with the strategy. But what he hadn’t expected was that he would point it out directly.
Until they returned to their courtyard, Wei Jin didn’t pay any attention to Xie Chenyang.
Xie Chenyang was so anxious that he directly rushed up and pounced on him. “Don’t be angry! I lost, I was defeated!”
Wei Jin lifted his eyelids; his eyes were extremely complex. “Get up first. You’re a dignified Sect Master……”
Xie Chenyang directly buried his head in Wei Jin’s shoulder, playing the rogue. “If you don’t forgive me, I won’t get up.”
System: “……” Didn’t see anything.
Wei Jin raised his gaze and swept his eyes over him with extreme coldness.
The disciple who had just entered the courtyard immediately turned around and ran away.
Wei Jin reached out and clasped Xie Chenyang’s waist and stood up with a single movement.
Xie Chenyang firmly wrapped his arms around his neck, his legs wrapped around his waist with determination, and said instead, “I won’t get down until you forgive me!”
System: “…… You’re not normal.” A bit of reverse CP.
Wei Jin sneered and dragged him into the room.
When the door of the room closed, Xie Chenyang suddenly felt a chill, and immediately wanted to jump down, but was held down by Wei Jin’s death grip.
Xie Chenyang patted him on the back. “Let me down.”
Wei Jin steadily held him down, his voice slightly cool. “Tell me, how did you play that game?”
[System, his persona has collapsed. Are you concerned or not?]
Xie Chenyang: [How should I answer?]
System: “Don’t tell the truth, directly ……” Make an edit.
[Got it.]
Xie Chenyang held his face and kissed him deeply.
I understand–do not speak, just do it.
Shio: Only one chapter left and my struggle with Wuxia will be over! T~T b
