Are you kidding ? Coming here to tease for no reason? Don’t you know I have things cooking down the mountain that need careful fire control?!
Dung Beetle glared at Guan Guan Jujiu, his face dark.
The young lady got scared and imdiately turned to flee. Her fair, long legs swung beneath her robe, and in the blink of an eye, she reached Blood Demoness’s side.
This man is too fierce! I didn’t even do anything wrong. You’re the one who bullied , and now you won’t even let speak? What’s with that attitude!
Blood Demoness shielded the young lady behind her and comforted her, "Don’t be scared. The disciples of the Profound Yellow Sect are all decent people."
"But... he bullied !" Guan Guan Jujiu looked at Blood Demoness with a pitiful expression.
It seed that at this mont, only Blood Demoness could offer her an indescribable sense of reassurance. Blood Demoness said with a smile, "Alright, alright, I’ll get to the bottom of this for you. Aren’t you quite famous in Lingnan as a First-Grade Martial Artist, yet you’re scared of a Fourth-Grade one?"
With that, she looked towards Dung Beetle and gestured for him to co over. Dung Beetle walked up, carrying the Cyan Dragon Crescent Moon Saber, his expression respectful.
"What exactly was that filthy substance you splashed on her?" Blood Demoness asked, eyeing Dung Beetle with a smile. She sincerely hoped Dung Beetle wouldn’t say it was *that* kind of thing. For a woman, that would be the ultimate tornt!
"Tofu!" Dung Beetle exclaid. He then said, puzzled, "I’m just a cook. Ever since the Sect Leader beat up the first ti I stewed actual dung, I haven’t ssed around like that anymore."
Good heavens. Did he really stew sothing like that? How disgusting...
"Are you sure it’s tofu?" Blood Demoness frowned slightly. How could tofu be that color and sll so foul? Every ti she recalled that stench, Blood Demoness felt a wave of nausea.
"It really is tofu! I’ve completely reford!" Dung Beetle explained, "I fried that tofu in oil and then deliberately left it to fernt. Haven’t any of you ever had stinky tofu? It slls foul, but it tastes delicious!"
Several passing players who overheard this couldn’t help the corners of their mouths from twitching.
"Dung Beetle, are you touched in the head? Is your family’s stinky tofu supposed to be that viscous?"
"We practically choked on the sll alone, and now you’re telling us that stuff is stinky tofu?"
"I suggest you try being decent and act like a normal human being for once."
"Confess and you’ll receive a lighter sentence; resist and it’ll be severe!"
"..."
Facing the players’ skepticism, Dung Beetle was also dumbfounded. He really was just trying to make stinky tofu; who knew it would end up looking and slling like *that*.
"Why would tofu sll so horrible?" Blood Demoness was still sowhat disbelieving.
Dung Beetle said helplessly, "I figured ordinary stinky tofu wouldn’t have much of an effect. So, I specially built a stove next to the latrine, fried the tofu, and put it in a jar. Then, I left it next to the latrine to bask in the sun for a few days. At night, I added water and sealed the jar to let it fernt. After several days, didn’t it turn completely blackish-yellow? It didn’t sll at first; the odor only started yesterday. The stench is truly overpowering, but I’ve tasted it. The flavor is absolutely fine; it only slls foul."
Hmm? Are you sure the taste is fine? You actually tasted sothing that was left next to a latrine, and you’re saying it’s okay?
At this mont, even Blood Demoness began to question her surroundings. Although the disciples of the Profound Yellow Sect had their quirks, they were, by and large, decent people. But now? This Dung Beetle was clearly far from decent. Who in their right mind would put tofu next to a latrine to sunbathe?
"Is it... really tofu?" Guan Guan Jujiu asked, biting her lip.
"It really is tofu."
Dung Beetle didn’t want to explain any further.
I’m just making so stinky tofu, and no one believes ! Is there no trust left between people anymore? Honestly, playing a ga and still having to suspect each other... You’d think we were playing Werewolf or sothing!
"Alright, go on down the mountain and get back to your work."
Blood Demoness waved her hand and then rubbed her temples, which were beginning to ache.
How did the Profound Yellow Sect end up producing such a character?
After Dung Beetle left, Blood Demoness turned to look at Guan Guan Jujiu and smiled, "Now you can rest assured, right?"
Guan Guan Jujiu hesitated for a mont, then gently nodded. But her fear of Dung Beetle was now indelible; the psychological trauma had thoroughly set in.
"It drives mad! You have no idea. As soon as I reached the entrance of the Profound Yellow Sect, I started gagging from the stench." Guan Guan Jujiu reverted to her usual deanor. "And who would have guessed, that fellow Shi actually charged at with a spoonful of stinky tofu. I was so overwheld by the sll that I couldn’t move, and he just splashed it all over . Argh, it was so infuriating!"
She hadn’t even reached Celestial Origin Mansion yet, and she’d already t her downfall at the Profound Yellow Sect. And she had lost the Cyan Dragon Crescent Moon Saber too. Now she didn’t dare to go looking for trouble with Dung Beetle. To get back her Cyan Dragon Crescent Moon Saber, she would have to find another way.
Blood Demoness was amused by Guan Guan Jujiu’s indignant and rather self-important tirades. She had already guessed Guan Guan Jujiu’s identity; after all, Guan Guan Jujiu was quite famous in the Lingnan region. As an Elder of the Blood Demon Sect, gathering information about Jianghu was quite easy.
"Your Profound Yellow Sect doesn’t seem to have many people." Guan Guan Jujiu sat down next to Blood Demoness and asked curiously, "What should I call you? If anyone bullies you in the future, just tell , and I’ll stand up for you!" As she spoke, she even patted her own modest chest. Compared to Blood Demoness, wasn’t hers rather flat?
"? I am Blood Demoness!" Blood Demoness, feeling playful due to the young woman’s antics, directly revealed her na. This made Guan Guan Jujiu stiffen.
"Blood Demoness? Which Blood Demoness?" Guan Guan Jujiu whispered, "I know an Elder in the Blood Demon Sect is called Blood Demoness. I’ve heard she’s a demoness who enjoys sucking n’s blood!"
This woman beside her is indeed strikingly beautiful and possesses an enviable figure. But surely she can’t be *that* demonic Elder from the Blood Demon Sect?
"I am Blood Demoness, one of the Five Great Elders of the Blood Demon Sect." Blood Demoness smiled and said, "Now, I’m a mber of the Profound Yellow Sect, just spending my days reading books here."
Hearing this, Guan Guan Jujiu imdiately jumped up, maintaining a safe distance from Blood Demoness.
"You... you... you..." She pointed at Blood Demoness, montarily speechless.
The Blood Demon Sect was now reviled by all. With the Five Great Elders having vanished without a trace, how could Blood Demoness dare to show her face here? How could she possibly dare?!
"Stop your ’you you you-ing.’ The Sect Leader of the Profound Yellow Sect and even the Brocade Guard Thousand Households of Fengxiang Prefecture know I’m here." Blood Demoness chuckled. "Sit down, let’s talk. And while we’re at it, tell about yourself. I’m very curious as to why you’ve co to the Profound Yellow Sect."
Seeing that Blood Demoness posed no imdiate threat, Guan Guan Jujiu sat down beside her again. After all, the woman had just helped her. If Blood Demoness hadn’t pressed for details, she would have believed herself utterly defiled. That fellow Shi was truly disgusting.
"Don’t even get started! Just thinking about it infuriates . I don’t know who leaked the news that I possess the Nine Dragon Key, leading to being hunted all over Lingnan for ages." Guan Guan Jujiu explained, "I found out that the list for the Nine Dragon Key was leaked from the Nine Heavens Alliance. So, I planned to go to them and demand an explanation. Who knew I’d run into this disaster just passing through your territory?"
After she finished speaking, Blood Demoness, who was beside her, burst into peals of laughter. She knew the whole story perfectly well. All of this was Xu Nian pulling strings from behind the scenes. Using the list for the Nine Dragon Key, he had managed to throw the entire Jianghu into chaos without even leaving his ho.
The Nine Heavens Alliance was probably in turmoil as well. If Guan Guan Jujiu could trace the leak to them, others certainly could too. Cui Shengshu must be having a massive headache by now. However, she didn’t know that Xu Nian had left instructions for Cui Shengshu. He was to tell the truth to any Jianghu people who ca looking for answers.
This ant that those Jianghu people who went seeking trouble would learn the truth as soon as they arrived. Xu Nian was right inside the Profound Yellow Sect, waiting for them.
Initially, Xu Nian had been pondering how to deal with those troublemakers from the Jianghu. Now, with Dung Beetle’s stinky tofu creation, Xu Nian finally felt at ease. No matter how skilled they were, anyone who ca would have to face the baptism of stinky tofu!
