Chapter 598: Chapter 598 Mo Shaoyun’s Change _1
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.
In Tiandu City, at the Lingxiao Villa, Zhang Xian was sprawled out on the lawn in front of the villa, looking at the cloudless sky, his brows knitted in deep thought.
He didn’t have to worry about the establishnt of the sect and the villa. However, the colossal funds needed for building the villa and the sect, bore down like a mountain on his shoulders, giving him a headache.
These past few days, he had been brainstorming ways to make money, but nothing ca to mind.
It’s true that he still had several leftover pills in his hand, but he didn’t plan to sell them for now. He felt these would be useful in the future because assembling the ingredients to concoct these pills was no easy task.
Aside from selling pills, after several days of thinking, he had not co across any other fast money-making thod.
"Ding-a-ling-ling ..."
Suddenly, the sound of a mobile phone ringing interrupted Zhang Xian’s train of thought.
With a frown, he picked up the phone and answered, "Master, do you have good news for ?"
"Are you free these days?"
After hesitating for a while, Zhang Xian responded, "I could be free, or I could be busy. It really depends on what purpose Master has for finding ."
"Recently, an ancient tomb has been discovered in Tongzhi. If you’re free, why don’t we take a look together?"
Zhang Xian was stunned for a mont, then asked with a smile, "What’s going on? Did your Buddhists temple develop an interest in ancient tombs? When did you guys get into tomb raiding?"
"Ahem, one can’t generalize everything. The main thing is that this ancient tomb is no ordinary tomb, it houses several supernatural events, and I believe there may be sothing unknown inside it"."
Zhang Xian asked, puzzled: "Master, what do you an by ’supernatural’? Don’t things look familiar to us?"
"Hehe, Lord Zhang, the supernatural I’m talking about is certainly not that of ordinary people, but of ancient martial arts practitioners. I can still distinguish these. There is sothing in that ancient tomb that may even seem extraordinary to us ancient martial arts practitioners, so I wondered if you’d be interested in checking it out."
Zhang Xian asked with a smile, "Are you sure?"
"If I wasn’t sure, would I call you? Am I that unreliable?"
Zhang Xian replied, "The ones who discovered the ancient tomb, it’s not only your Buddhists temple, right? There are also those sects, and basically, they will also go, right?"
"The ancient tomb was discovered by the people of Broken Sword Sect, but it’s strange that they can’t get in, and the news spread."
A tiny smile appeared on Zhang Xian’s face, and he said, "Alright, I’ll leave soon, and we will et up in Tongzhi."
"Alright, no problem. Let’s get in touch once you arrive there."
After hanging up the phone, a satisfied smile appeared on Zhang Xian’s face. The tomb might be sothing rare as it was considered supernatural to the ancient martial arts practitioners. It might have been left behind by so cultivator.
Without receiving the inheritance, he might not think that there are cultivators above the ancient martial arts practitioners.
After receiving the inheritance and gaining so understanding of cultivators, he knew that there were also cultivators in this world long ago. They simply disappeared in the long river of history due to so reasons.
The ancient tomb discovered by the Broken Sword Sect might be the tomb of a cultivator. Only a cultivator could make the ancient martial arts practitioners helpless."
"Zhang Xian, what are you grinning at alone here?"
Suddenly, Mo Shaoyun walked over from a distance, noticing Zhang Xian lying on the lawn on his own, chuckling incessantly, looking sowhat curious.
"Uh ..."
When Zhang Xian saw Mo Shaoyun, he quickly put away his smile and asked, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, do you have any free ti?"
Mo Shaoyun asked, "What’s the matter?"
"Well, I need to go out for a trip, you should take care of things here whilst I am gone."
Mo Shaoyun asked, "What’s going on again?"
Zhang Xian said, "Master Wujing from the Buddhist temple just called, saying he’s found a strange ancient tomb and invited
to have a look."
"Can I go?" Mo Shaoyun looked at Zhang Xian, "Take
with you, there shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
Zhang Xian asked in surprise, "Do you want to go too?"
"Can’t I go?" Mo Shaoyun seed reluctant to take no for an answer, smiled and said, "If I can’t, can you give
a reason? If you can convince , I won’t follow you."
Zhang Xian gave a wry smile and said, "If you insist, what can I do? But, do you have ti? Can you leave the matters here?"
"Let’s go!"
Mo Shaoyun hooked her arm through Zhang Xian’s and said, "Elder Sister iting will handle the matters here for ."
"Is it Elder Sister iting again?"
Zhang Xian gave Mo Shaoyun a sideways glance and asked, "Is this really appropriate? Each ti you go out, you dump all the work on Elder Sister iting, aren’t you afraid she’ll snap one day?"
"She won’t, you can rest assured about that."
Mo Shaoyun confidently said, "Just let
know when we are leaving."
Zhang Xian replied, "We’ll leave right now."
"So soon?"
After frowning for a bit, Mo Shaoyun agreed, "Alright, I’ll give Fu iting a call now, I’ll ask if she can spare so ti to help
manage things."
With that, she took out her mobile phone and dialed Fu iting’s number.
Watching from the side, Zhang Xian couldn’t help but display a wry smile on his face.
Of course, he wouldn’t intervene in such matters. As long as the girls did not have any conflicts, there was no need for him to ddle in their affairs. Under such circumstances, it was best to let the girls figure out their own dynamics.
All he had to do was watch from the sidelines. If he had to step in to settle every single issue, their relationships wouldn’t last long.
...
In TianDu City, LingXiao Villa, inside an office.
Fu iting was seated behind her office desk, sorting through a pile of docunts. Similar stacks of unsorted docunts littered her desk.
"Ding-dong-dong..."
Suddenly, her phone began to ring uproariously.
Fu iting checked her phone and then answered it, asking, "Shaoyun, is there another problem on your end?"
"Why must you phrase it as though there’s always a problem at my end? And why do I feel like you’re hoping I run into trouble? Have I offended you in any way lately?"
Fu iting laughed, "I didn’t an it like that."
"Alright, listen, I might need to be away for a few days. Could you cover for
here?"
Fu iting glanced at the docunts on her desk and grimaced, "Really? I’m already swamped with my own work, how am I supposed to cover for you?"
"That’s your problem."
Fu iting’s mouth twitched unnaturally a few tis. She asked, "Okay! Why don’t you tell
what you’re stepping out for? Don’t tell
it’s because Zhang Xian is going sowhere and you want to tag along?"
"That’s exactly it."
Fu iting was taken aback, she asked, "Are you kidding ? What’s that guy up to?"
"You should ask Zhang Xian about that. Anyway, I’ll be following him, so I’ll leave the handling of things here to you. Okay, that’s all for now, call
if anything cos up."
With that, Mo Shaoyun hung up the call.
"Hello?"
Fu iting listened to the busy tone from her phone, she was furious, "Damn Mo Shaoyun, isn’t she a bit too much? Not only does she run off with Zhang Xian, but she also dumps this ss onto ."
...
Tongzhi County, located in Guhai City, is an ordinary small town.
However, in recent days, several groups of mysterious, extraordinary individuals had arrived one after the other.
The ordinarily peaceful town suddenly beca bustling with activity - if people weren’t arguing on West Street, they were brawling on South Street. It was bustling.
On one side, there were the locals; on the other, the stubborn outsiders. Even the slightest friction between the two sides would result in neither backing down, ultimately leading to physical confrontations.
At noon, inside an unassuming diner, a few people scattered here and there were enjoying their als.
Sitting by a table near the wall on the right, Zhang Xian was holding a cup of hot tea, calmly watching the quiet street outside where only occasional cars passed by.
"Is there a beauty outside?"
Mo Shaoyun looked out but didn’t catch anything noteworthy. She turned back and asked, "Why are you staring outside so much?"
"I don’t know if there’s a beauty outside, but there’s definitely one right in front of ." Zhang Xian replied with a cheeky smile.
Mo Shaoyun rolled her eyes at Zhang Xian, "Quit your nonsense and tell , did sothing happen outside? You’ve been staring intently."
"So just because I’m staring outside, sothing must’ve happened?"
Zhang Xian gave a wry smile, "There’s nothing interesting going on inside, so of course I look outside. Or should I just constantly stare at your face?"
"You..."
Mo Shaoyun glared at Zhang Xian, "I can’t be bothered with you!"
"Did I offend you?"
Zhang Xian looked at Mo Shaoyun, asked in frustration, "Nothing happened outside just now, I was rely stating the truth. You’re mad at
for that? Isn’t that a bit too much?"
Mo Shaoyun said, "I’m unhappy, is that not allowed?"
Zhang Xian stared at Mo Shaoyun, who looked a little peeved, and suddenly spaced out. It took him a while to snap out of it.
When did this lass learn to act spoiled?
Could it be that she was opening up her heart and starting to accept him? Otherwise, considering her personality, how would she be acting spoiled around him? He’d known Mo Shaoyun for more than just a day or two, but this was the first ti he’d ever seen her like this. Even this icy woman could reveal a maternal side to her.
"Why are you looking at
like that?" Mo Shaoyun asked with a slight frown, "Do I have sothing on my face?"
Zhang Xian rubbed his nose, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, don’t you feel you’re behaving differently today?"
Mo Shaoyun asked in confusion, "How am I different?"
"Er, well, I feel like you’re a bit gentler today, not as cold as before." Zhang Xian looked at Mo Shaoyun and asked hesitantly, "Can I take this as a sign that you’ve fully accepted , and you’ve acknowledged
as your husband in your heart? I an, without that kind of relationship, you wouldn’t act like this, right?"
Mo Shaoyun stared at Zhang Xian, as if petrified. Her beautiful eyes were wide and unblinking, fixed on the very close Zhang Xian.
"Um..."
Zhang Xian felt a bit awkward under Mo Shaoyun’s intense gaze, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, I’m asking you a question! Why do you keep staring at
like that?"
