Chapter 139 The Night of the Nightingale
Song Jiao combed the hair on her temples and pretended to be calm, "It was your father's order, ok?"
Li Ye shook his head, "He would never give such an order. He had been free from worries long ago. How would he care about my work in Pinglu?"
Song Jiao shut her mouth and stared at Li Ye. Then she turned around and walked into the Taoist temple.
Li Ye stunned and he heard her whisper "fool" when Song Jiao was turning her body.
Li Ye stopped guessing and left the Huabuzhu Mountain.
When Li Ye got back to the Qizhou city, it was the time when the sun was setting. The last drop of sunshine faded away from the top of the city wall. Li Ye walked into the city gate. All the guards from the house of Prince An who were on duty greeted him, "Your Highness!"
Li Ye nodded and walked directly to the house of the Inspector General without saying any more.
A lot of people were gathering in and out of

"Senior sister, why are we going down the mountain?" "You have asked that for sixty-seven times for the past 3 days. And I've answered you sixty-six times. Now I don't want to answer it for the sixty-seventh time." "But senior sister, I really don't understand!" "Then you should listen to our master. Don't ask." "Senior sister, I want to go home!" "You got a home?" "I mean going back to the mountain..." "Go. I won't stop you." "But our master will beat me to death if I went back!" "It's good that you know it." "... Senior sister, why are we going down the mountain?" On the official road to Qingzhou, Li Ye speechlessly looked at the man and the woman. He had been fed up with their conversations. Wearing navy gowns, both of them looked young. Li Ye did not overtake them to look at their faces. From their backs, he could

"Pain is often a result of blockages at certain parts of the body, and one would feel painless once those blockages are clear. This theory also applies to loss of consciousness, which is often due to blockages at meridians, resulting in an obstructed flow of vital energy. Although Xiaozhuang's behavior after going berserk wasn't exactly the same as ordinary people, what took place inside his body was still the same." "Xiaozhuang should have gained back consciousness once I opened up his crucial acupoints. However, since these acupoints were blocked for too long and have lost their abilities, it's normal that his vital energy doesn't flow well, and he can't move freely at the moment yet," explained Li Ye in all seriousness. "So that's why Xiaozhuang can't move at all?" questioned Su Emei. Apparently, she didn't trust his words at all, since her expression showed a strong killing intent. "That's exactly why." Li Ye shrugged and raised his outs

Seeing the pile of coins, Li Ye opened his mouth but did not know what to say. There were not more than 20 coins, which was definitely not enough to buy even just half a wheel, so he really was not sure if she was joking. The seriousness on Su Emei's face told Li Ye she that she was not trying to trick him. Maybe she really did not have much of an idea about money. He could not help asking her, "Where did you two come from?" "The mountains," answered Su Emei, appearing a little bewildered. "What does that have to do with the price of this carriage?" "Nothing." Li Ye decided to accept her coins. Usually, people would answer his question by telling him which place or sect they were from, instead of just answering "the mountains". It seemed that this breathtakingly beautiful young lady was not even aware of that basic convention in this world, and he found that very peculiar because she did not look dumb at all. A hint of worry fl
Vanquish Them All Chapter 143 An Unexpected Crisis
There was nothing to do after dinner, so everyone chatted around the bonfire for a while, then started meditating and doing breathing exercises on their own. Wei Xiaozhuang could already stand up and walk around, but he still could not control his Spiritual Qi at will. It might take two more days for him to recover fully. Su Emei volunteered to stay up, needing to be alert for wild beasts or bandits around and add more firewood if the fire went out. Li Ye did not think too much about it, and was happy to save the effort of setting up defence barriers. He believed the most important rule of survival in the Jianghu was to stay low-profile and hide one's true strength, just like how one should not show off one's wealth in public. Li Ye did not need to do any breathing exercise, he was only taking the time to contemplate the situation in Qing Prefecture while sitting still. As the center of Pinglu and the commissioner's crucial prefecture, Qing
Vanquish Them All Chapter 144 What To Do
At about 50 meters above the ground, she could even see the light from a village very far away. The scenery in the wilderness at night was not as mesmerizing as the cities because there was much less light around. It also was not beautiful, but one would still be captured by its unique serenity. Su Emei could not help feeling her heart beating much faster. She turned around in shock and almost knocked into someone's face. Since the two of them were extremely close, she could even see his long eyelashes clearly. Feeling taken aback, she pulled her face away and saw a face that was as fair as a scholar's. It was Li Ye's face! His face was calm and collected, just like a deep lake without any waves on the surface. The cold moonlight splashed onto his face like a thin layer of frost, making him look grimmer than usual. Su Emei almost could not believe what she was seeing. "His

As someone who could never stay idle, Wei Xiaozhuang could not stop talking once he started a conversation. Looking troubled and upset, he sighed like a wise old man and said, "Why are there so many conflicts in this world? Trouble already found us before we even made any enemies! In fact, neither of us wanted to leave the mountain, there's just no fun in going on this trip. It's great for me to just train on the mountain without any distractions, and we always have hunters visiting us with half bottles of wine from time to time. We would just sit around one table to enjoy some simple dishes and a couple of shots while listening to the hunters' brave stories of fighting against wild beasts—Um, actually that's just what our master told us. He's even more talkative than me, and he likes to brag all the time. We are both bored of listening to his so-called true stories of experiencing the Jianghu with great ease. He always mentions that he only met one worthy opponent in the entire wor
Vanquish Them All Chapter 146 Dare Not Call Myself a Scholar
"This is Qing City? Those fences are really tall!" Wei Xiaozhuang exclaimed as he saw the city walls almost reaching up to the sky. His voice was filled with awe and disbelief. Li Ye laughed and said, "This is called the city wall." "Of course, that's what I meant. My master told me about it." Wei Xiaozhuang answered in all seriousness, acting as if he had only made a slip-up. He continued, "But it's not as tall as he once claimed it to be. He said there's a city wall as tall as a mountain, but I say he was definitely making that up." Li Ye smiled at his reply. As one of the prefectures in Pinglu, Qing Prefecture had very tall city walls. However, it still could not compare to Chang'an, so Li Ye did not feel so amazed. When the three of them entered the city with the carriage, the sergeant guarding the city gate carried out a thorough search of the carriage. It was not because the security in Qing Prefecture was tight these day
Vanquish Them All Chapter 147 The Grand Plan of the Penglai Sect
When Li Ye heard that there had been someone providing financial aid to the temple on Boji Mountain, he thought the person would be so well-to-do that he could easily ensure sufficient food and clothing supply in the temple. He did not believe that the old master would have to wear his only Taoist robe full of patches. Having seen Cui Keli's own living conditions, however, Li Ye realized for someone who had been living a secluded life on his own, it was already impressive that he was able to aid the temple aside from being able to afford his own needs. Li Ye left the desk and sat down on a chair. Cui Keli sat down as well. He first asked Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang about their master and the temple, then Su Emei brought up the reason for their visit. Cui Keli said, "I'm truly sorry that I had to ask for your help. Just a few days ago, the Penglai sect sent out invitations to many powers in Pinglu to visit Penglai Island. It was said that the
