BXBX NOVEL Chapter 45 - Elder Hua, There's A Thief!
Qin Yi decided to stop overthinking about this as he went straight to his usual night activities.
First, observing the Hundred Flowers Garden.
Then managing into the Mystic Garden.
Finally, slowly absorbing the knowledge of the books Elder Gu gave.
Without him realizing it, time flew by until the sun began to greet him again in the morning.
However, for some unknown reason, today was slightly different from the previous days.
That was because when Qin Yi descended to the foot of the mountain, he still had not seen Lu Yun.
According to the usual routine, he should be able to see that guy's face at this hour.
"Don't tell me he wants to slack off?"
Qin Yi grumbled as he was annoyed by Lu Yun's tardiness.
Then he sighed and said helplessly, "It looks like I'll have to wait for that guy here for a while. It would be bad if the peak remained unattended."
However, two hours later, Lu Yun still hadn't arrived, and this made him wonder where did that scoundrel go?
Had he forgotten his mission?
"Tsk, this guy, either his presence or his absence can still annoy me-"
Qin Yi wanted to complain further, but before he could finish his first sentence, he suddenly saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure gradually walking towards him.
That person looked familiar because he was none other than Lu Yun, but he came with a different face today, making him look unfamiliar.
Unlike the face full of contempt like the previous days, Lu Yun's face this time was quite pathetic.
It was because Qin Yi could see some bruises and swelling on his face.
Even though it looked like it had been treated, it couldn't hide the fact that Lu Yun's face looked like he had been beaten by someone else to a pulp.
Qin Yi's eyes lit up as his heart leaped wildly.
He could roughly guess what Lu Yun had just gone through.
This was undoubtedly the doing of Sister Qiao's younger brother.
When Lu Yun looked at Qin Yi's figure, the contempt look in his eyes still didn't disappear, but mostly, they were replaced by a bitter and hateful look.
Qin Yi, of course, noticed the look in those eyes. But instead of acting happy, he put on a pouting and blaming face.
"Fellow Disciple Lu, are you late because you took too long to apply your makeup? Then, I congratulate you, your makeup is perfect and flawless. But do you know how long I've been standing here waiting for you?"
"That's two hours! Two hours, Fellow Disciple Lu! Heavens~ I waste two hours of my training time just waiting for you to make up. What have I done to deserve this~?"
"You!"
Lu Yu was instantly turned mad and shouted, "It was you, right? I knew it was you who made me end up like this!"
Qin Yi blinked innocently, "What are you talking about, Fellow Disciple Lu? I don't understand at all. Don't worry, Fellow Disciple Lu, your makeup is perfect, you can even proudly flaunt it to every disciple in the outer sect. I bet you will definitely receive a lot of praise and gratified smiles from them."
Qin Yi's tone and words were quite pleasant to hear, as if they were indeed a rare compliment.
Lu Yun couldn't hold back his anger any longer being ridiculed like this by the person he had always looked down on.
He suddenly gathered Qi around his hands and prepared to attack Qin Yi.
"Son of bit*h, I know you asked that bastard Qiao Jin to beat me up. Although I don't know what you paid to get that bastard to take action, I, Lu Yun, will change my surname to yours if I don't make you pay for this!"
Qin Yi snorted, "I will not give my surname to an unfilial son like you!"
"I'll Kill you!" Lu Yun was furious and was about to jump into Qin Yi.
Seeing this, Qin Yi panicked and said anxiously: "Hey, easy, easy, buddy, don't damage the flowers here otherwise the owner will be angry."
Lu Yun instantly froze as the Qi gathering in his hand also halted.
He had almost forgotten that all the flowers, including the flowers at the foot of this peak, were the properties of someone he absolutely could not offend.
And out of his anger, he nearly crushed them and almost made his future bleak.
"Surely, you still remember the owner of all the flowers on this mountain? That is Elder Hua, the owner of all these flowers is Elder Hua!"
"Elder Hua, Elder Hua, there is a scrondel who wants to destroy your beloved flowers!"
Qin Yi started screaming in panic like he saw a thief.
Lu Yun's face changed instantly; he would never have thought that this bastard would act like this.
Although it looked childish, it would not be good if Elder Hua heard it.
"Son of bitch, shut up!"
"Elder Hua, Elder Hua..."
"Bastard, you..."
"Thief... Elder Hua, there's a thief!"
"Holy shit, who are you calling a thief?"
"Elder Hua..."
"Aahh, that's enough! Fellow Disciple Qin, please stop. It's my fault I've been putting on makeup for too long that I came late and made you wait here long. How about you leave now, and I'll take over the rest..."
"...Elder Hua!"
...
Meanwhile, in the depths of the Spirit Flower Peak, there is a magnificent building.
There is a fountain in the hall's garden made of beautiful jade, where countless gorgeous and colorful flowers surround it.
Right in the middle of this fountain was a large blooming flower, revealing a bright yellow pistil.
A woman wearing a yellow feather coat and a thin silk veil with flowers pattern on her face sat on the pistil.
She slowly opened her eyelids halfly.
Just now, she had faintly heard someone calling out her name.
She didn't know what it was, but she immediately used her spiritual sense to see what was going on out there.
Seconds later, she saw two young people; one was screaming her name frantically, the other was begging for the other to stop.
It was such a funny and embarrassing scene.
She observed it for a second before she retracted her spiritual sense and closed her eyes again.
It was unknown what she was just thinking while watching that scene.
***
Unexpectedly, the scene of Qin Yi screaming at the foot of Spirit Flower Peak was heard by several passing outer sect disciples, and it eventually spread throughout the outer sect.
In less than half a day, this shameful yet hilarious incident became the subject of talk and jokes among the outer sect disciples.
They heard a disciple at the First Stage of Qi Condensation Realm shouting 'thief' at the foot of Spirit Flower Peak while calling out Elder Hua's name for help.
It was a bold move.
Unfortunately, since Qin Yi was not very popular in the outer sects, no one recognized his name and which person it was. Thus, they could only state him as the First Stage of Qi Condensation Realm disciple.
However, contrary to Qin Yi, the most recognized person in this incident was Lu Yun.
That guy has long been known for his viciousness and cunningness, and many people have disliked him for a long time.
However, suddenly, today, he is bound to be famous by the nickname 'thief'.
Everyone wondered what Lu Yu did to make the First Stage of Qi Condensation Realm disciples yell at him as a thief, even daring to call out Elder Hua's name for help.
Regardless, this incident was destined to become one of the most unforgettable events in the outer sect, and most people still talked about it even after a month has passed.
That's right.
A month has passed.
Several interesting events happened in the outer sect in the short span of a month, and two of them were related to Qin Yi.
But no one knew that these two events were related to Qin Yi, a disciple at the Second Stage of Qi Condensation Realm.
