Chapter 945: Should Laugh Like This!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“This old man wants to meet your esteemed father, Lord Miao!” Gu Yun Yang said with a bitter smile. Just now, he’d already thought about all the possible methods at least twice. Now that he understood the source of the injury, wanting to retain Gu Fei Yu’s life and help him recover completely was not a difficult matter at all. However, the much greater problem was that Gu Fei Yu would no longer be able to advance any further in his cultivation after he recovered!
There was only one thing that could completely help Gu Fei Yu recover without leaving behind any side effects, even helping him grow stronger!
Because of that, Gu Yun Yang did not mind putting down his status and apologizing to Miao Xiao Miao, while listing his condition.
Hearing this, Cao Guo Feng snorted coldly. “Gu Yun Yang, you wish to use the Seven Colored Holy Fruits to treat your grandson? You must be getting muddle-headed in your old age! Did you think that the Seven Colored Holy Fruits are common cabbages growing in front of your yard?”
Cao Guo Feng was naturally anxious!
Right now, in the Misty Illusory Manor, only two people of the younger generation had the qualifications to consume the Seven Colored Holy Fruits. One was his own disciple Mo Jun Ye, while the other was the similarly gifted Miao Xiao Miao. And each time the Seven Colored Holy Fruits ripened, only two batches would be produced!
The two of them just took one batch each. If Gu Yun Yang also occupied one batch... Then, there would definitely be one among the two of them who would not get to eat the fruits in the next 500 years!
That meant that the person would have to wait another 500 years! Just like that, it would be a total of 1,000 years!
The Miao Family was deeply rooted in the Misty Illusory Manor from the ancient days, while Miao Xiao Miao was the number one genius of the Misty Illusory Manor! Whether or not she would get the fruits was basically a matter that didn’t even need consideration!
“Cao Guo Feng, you still don’t have the right to interfere with what this old man wants to do!” Gu Yun Yang retorted icily. “As for whether the Manor Lord is willing to give this old man some face is none of your business!”
Gu Yun Yang felt extremely conflicted in his heart as well. He didn’t wish to offend Cao Guo Feng if he could help it. After all, the both of them were Saint Emperors, and their relationship was not bad. But at this juncture, they already couldn’t care that much. If the Free and Natural Physique did not consume the Holy Fruits, his cultivation speed would surely slow down, being quite likely to affect the grand scheme of things in the entire Misty Illusory Manor... However, his grandson... was similarly important to him!
“Forgive me, Senior Gu, but this matter is not up to my decision.” Miao Xiao Miao replied tactfully. However, I will be sure to tell father and grandfather about this matter when I return.”
Gu Yun Yang sighed forlornly and nodded. “Since it’s like that, let’s leave it up to the heavens to decide.” Picking up his grandson, his body shook as he jumped out of the window, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye!
Before leaving, he did not even leave behind a single word!
Miao Xiao Miao’s words could be said to have left much to the imagination. She only said that she would tell her family about this matter. But was she going to talk about the dispute today? Or was she going to mention the matter of Gu Yun Yang’s request for the Holy Fruits? If it was the former, it wouldn’t matter even if she told it in greater detail! Or rather, there wasn’t even the need to recount the matter in great detail!
So on certain levels, this sentence had been the equivalent of rejecting Gu Yun Yang!
What kind of a character was Gu Yun Yang? How could a deep, profound schemer like himself not be able to hear the true meaning in those words? Thus, old man Gu did not stay around to invite his own humiliation, directly leaving with his grandson. The sooner treatment was administered, the less the lasting damage would be.
With Miao Xiao Miao blocking the way, there was already no more hope for the Seven Colored Holy Fruits!
Cao Guo Feng smiled lightly and turned around to look at Jun Mo Xie. Then, he turned to look at Miao Xiao Miao. The more he looked, the more delighted he became, smiling happily as he winked. “Since there’s nothing else, this old man will be going now. Jun Ye, come back quickly after you finish playing outside. This time, I explicitly informed you not to create trouble, but to think that you’d still managed to stir up some trouble.
After that, he turned to Miao Xiao Miao with a warm smile. “Little girl Miao, my disciple has just arrived and is still not familiar with our Miao Xiao Miao. If you have nothing to do, this old man would like to trouble you to bring this boy around for some sightseeing.”
Miao Xiao Miao just so happened to be extremely interested in Jun Mo Xie and was hoping to find the chance to feel him out, so she instantly agreed.
Cao Guo Feng was just about to leave when he suddenly realized that he’d forgotten something. Thinking for a moment, he asked, “Right, where’s Wang Neng and Li Jie who were supposed to be following you?”
Jun Mo Xie pursed his lips and replied nonchalantly. “The two of them... hmm... I’m not sure where they went...” At the same time, he thought to himself: Those two might be in sitting in a jail cell somewhere now; there’s no point looking for them...
Hearing that, Cao Guo Feng snorted with rage. “When those two return, I will most definitely punish them heavily! Not only did they ignore the serious matter I’d entrusted them with, they actually went off by themselves to play! What’s the use in keeping the two of them!”
Shaking his head, he soared away with a shua sound, disappearing into the distance.
Seeing two Saint Emperors leave just like that, the inn was suddenly only left with Miao Xiao Miao, Little Beansprout, and Jun Mo Xie.The three looked at each other awkwardly, no one willing to speak first. In that moment, the entire room fell into complete silence.
Jun Mo Xie rubbed his nose, thinking to himself that it was somewhat of a pity that this little lass was acting so mysteriously, covering half her face with a veil. It was so difficult to figure out her appearance, almost as if he were trying to gaze at a mountain through a fog. However, staying silent like this was not a solution ah. Forget it, this Young Master still has some virtue of patience. I’ll break the ice then...
“Erm... two missus, what matter is it that you’ve called me up here for?” Jun Mo Xie only finally recalled that it had been the two of them who had invited him up here initially. As for what matter it was, they hadn’t said until now. The moment he came up, he’d been involved in a quarrel, and even forced his opponent into an unconscious state...
The entire sequence of events had indeed been quite unexpected. However, he at least had an excuse to speak now.
“It’s actually nothing much.” Right now, Miao Xiao Miao thought through her words several times before speaking, seemingly being extremely cautious with everything she said. This Mo Jun Ye, great genius Mo, may look simple and honest, but in reality, he has a stomachful of schemes and dangerous plots. If provoked, it will not be a laughing matter. This fellow could deliver a vicious bite at anytime, the kind that would tear skin and shred flesh. It is best not to offend him.
In any case, there didn’t seem to be a need for that. “I just heard from my Seniors that a wondrous talent like Young Master Mo had come to our Misty Illusory Manor, adding another young hero with boundless future to our ranks. Thus, I developed the inclination to get acquainted with Young Master. Unexpectedly, such a huge incident happened, ruining my initial intentions. It’s truly embarrassing.”
“Ah... hur hur, Miss is truly overly praising me!” Jun Mo Xie laughed dryly and said. “Honestly, there’s really nothing very amazing about me. I’m just a normal person, with one mouth, one nose, and two eyes. Apart from being a little more handsome than normal people, I still feel pain when getting hit. If I get slashed by a sword, I will still die. Miss must feel a little disappointed now that you’ve seen me in person right?”
Miao Xiao Miao wided her eyes, only managing to stammer out a few words. “N-no... not disappointed.”
“That’s good, that’s good.” Jun Mo Xie breathed a sigh of relief in a happy manner as he said to himself. “I thought that I wasn’t as handsome as before... Looks like my charm is still there; what a relief.”
On the side, Little Beansprout giggled a little. Hearing Young Master Jun praise himself like that, Miao Xiao Miao also covered her mouth and smiled.
Young Master Jun scratched his head and made a tsk sound with his tongue. “It’s truly tiring to look at you all laugh! If you want to laugh, just laugh! Why’s there the need to cover your mouth and tilt your head to the side, afraid of making a little sound? Look at me, it’s only enjoyable if you laugh like this!” After saying that, he raised his head and gathered his Qi through his dantian as he laughed aloud. “HA! HA! HA! HA!”
Laughter was truly contagious.
The two adorable lolis finally could not endure anymore as they clutched their stomachs and roared with laughter, their sides cramping until they couldn’t stand straight.
“How come you laugh like this? It seems that my style is a bit difficult for you.” Young Master Jun furrowed his brows lightly, seemingly in deep thought for a while before he said seriously. “Or you can try to laugh like this; it may be more suitable for you...”
After saying that, he raised his head, squeezed his eyebrows together, and laughed. “Ha~ha~ haha...” The actions and tone of this laughter mimicked Stephen Chow’s perfectly, laughing exaggeratedly while moving the shoulders back and forth. His expression was exceedingly rich and comical.
“Hahahahaha...” The two ladies no longer cared about their appearance as they smacked the table and laughed uproariously. Their entire faces were tinged with red, and their little peach-like mouths were opened wide. Even the sight of their pink little tongues could be seen jumping with enjoyment...
“See, isn’t it satisfying to laugh like that? Isn’t it comfortable? Do you feel much more relaxed? Much more gratified?!” Jun Mo Xie thought with a deadpan expression: That, is the release of your true self! If you want to laugh, just let loose and laugh! Laughter is a thing that originates from happiness! If you still want to control yourself when you’re joyful, what is the meaning in that kind of smile?”
Jun Mo Xie’s voice grew slightly more solemn as he continued. “Humans live for only a mere fleeting moment in the face of the immensity of the heavens and earth. It is filled with sorrow, with joyful moments being rare and far between. Whether it be the pain of the separation of life and death; or love, hatred, enmity, and friendship... life is filled with innumerable trials and unpredictable moments. Thus, we must grab hold of every happy moment and smile joyfully and wholeheartedly. Because after you laugh this time, it’s hard to tell when the next opportunity to laugh will be...”
His words were somewhat heavy, resonating with the hearts of the two ladies.
Miao Xiao Miao sighed lightly and nodded. “Indeed... there are truly too few moments in life that are worthy of a good laughter; whereas moments for pain and heartache are in great abundance... Brother Mo’s words have indeed touched on the true meaning of life’s five flavors.”
Previously, she’d only been calling Young Master Jun as ‘Young Master Mo’. But in this moment, she’d unknowingly changed her form of address to Brother Mo. Clearly, their relationship had become a step closer.
Jun Mo Xie chuckled and smiled. “Dare I ask Miss Miao, before today, when was the last time you laughed? Can you still remember?”
A look of deep thought appeared in Miao Xiao Miao’s eyes, slowly turning into pain and hurt as she shook her head. “I don’t remember... truly...”
Jun Mo Xie sighed lightly and looked at her. “Life is like a dream, passing in the twinkling of an eye. The black hair of yesterday turns white as snow today. When pleased with oneself, one should enjoy it to the greatest extent. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be wasting these short tens of years of youth?”
