Chapter 499: Chapter 501 Summoning Demon Sect
…
A wooden house facing the valley, with empty Sword Sect chambers all around, Ming Xiu and Zhong Lin naturally arranged this pair of star-crossed lovers to stay together…
On someone else’s turf, the female from the Summoning Demon Sect dared not raise any objections, and instead, she was quietly observing the changes.
After Zhong Lin and Ming Xiu left, she immediately went to Zhu Minng’s neatly packed luggage, snatching back her very extravagant Moon Cassock, which she seemed to care about greatly.
“Hmph, thanks for hiding it for me, I’m leaving!” The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect didn’t want to stay a moment longer, grabbing her belongings and nning to leave overnight.
“As a member of the Summoning Demon Sect, you’re a bit too naive. If they really trusted us, why bother escorting us all the way here? I bet you, the moment you show any intention to flee, the Sky ughter Sword Array will turn you into mincemeat!” Zhu Minng said indifferently.
The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect frowned, her expression bing more solemn.
Thinking carefully, indeed these people were overly enthusiastic; there was no need to wee a man and a woman camping in the wild. It was nothing more than not beingpletely certain about the two’s identities, so they simply escorted them to the sect’s gates to observe for a while.
“If you’re a member of the Yaoshan Sword Sect, why would you help me?” The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect started to doubt Zhu Minng’s motives.
“I have my own standards of judgment. If they told me you drained the blood of a whole vige and were seen by them during your escape, of course, I wouldn’t shelter you,” Zhu Minng exined.<div>
“In your eyes, is our Summoning Demon Sect really akin to evil spirits? We’re all cultivators, at most our actions are a bit more extreme,” the woman’s tone turned cold.
“I’m not nning to argue with you about such grand principles. It’s just that instinctively, I think you’re quite good-looking and I hope you’re not as evil as I am,” Zhu Minng yawned, took off his boots, and sprawled on the bed before continuing, “Oh, and don’t take it seriously when I previously said you were my grand maidservant, devoted to me heart and soul. I’m a principled man. Don’t try to use gratitude to share my bed. Take a couple of chairs, arrange them end to end, and sleep over in that corner…”
Rolling up the quilt, Zhu Minng monopolized therge bed and also casually untied the curtains, no longer worrying about how the woman from the Summoning Demon Sect was going to make it through the long night, and started sleeping soundly.
The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect stamped her foot in anger!
He was a man of principles, did that mean she was a flirtatious and promiscuous woman?
“Living under someone else’s roof, stay calm and peaceful, stay calm and peaceful…” The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect recited the mantra to herself.
“Right, that Moon Cassock you stole, I’ll keep it safe for you. I’ve staked the reputation of the Yaoshan Sword Sect to protect you. To avoid you causing any trouble for me, I need to take something,” Zhu Minng’s voice came from inside the bed-curtains.
The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect didn’t understand at first, but when she turned to check her Moon Cassock, she found the pouch empty – Zhu Minng had somehow taken the important garment without her noticing!
The woman from the Summoning Demon Sect rose, tore open the bed-curtains, and red at Zhu Minng, who was showing only his head from under the nkets.
Zhu Minng opened his eyes, still sleepy, and said, “Tomorrow morning, they’ll ask us to visit the Sword Manor, and surely someone will sneak in to search our luggage. If your identity is exposed again, it will not just be your problem but mine as well.”
Hearing these words, the woman from the Summoning Demon Sect’s rage finally subsided a bit. She stared at Zhu Minng for a while before turning away with a cold snort, going back to the table.
“That was a keepsake from my mother…” After a long pause, the woman from the Summoning Demon Sect finally spoke softly.
“Hah hoo~~~~ Hah hoo~~~~~” Even, deep snores were alreadying from within the bed-curtains.
The Demon Sect woman clutched her cup of hot tea, almost crushing it in her grip.
After some contemtion, the Demon Sect woman decided to reveal why she had stolen the Moon Cassock, feeling that since the other party had protected her, she should be somewhat honest. Who would have known that the guy would simply fall asleep,pletely disregarding her, a woman of the Demon Sect!!
How big must this guy’s heart be!
After Zhu Minng had fallen asleep, the Demon Sect woman still searched the room, wanting to know where Zhu Minng had hidden her Moon Cassock, but after searching the entire room, she found none of her belongings.
In the end, she was certain that Zhu Minng must have hidden her Moon Cassock under his pillow. The thought of this man keeping her worn clothing by the bed made Ye Youying feel incredibly uneasy and she secretly cursed in her heart: Shameless, sleazy!
…<div>
Waking up at dawn, sleeping in afortable big bed was indeed much better than camping in the wild.
Zhu Minng stretchedfortably and nced around the room to see the Demon Sect woman sitting on a chair, resting her head on one hand – she must have been too sleepy and had fallen asleep sitting up.
When Zhu Minng woke up, she woke up not long after, probably hearing some noise. She still had a very strong sense of wariness towards Zhu Minng.
“Go wash your face. They haven’t seen what you look like, and don’t even know if you’re male or female,” Zhu Minng said to her with her cheeks grimy and dark.<div>
Seeing Zhu Minng leave the bed, she quickly moved to the bedside and lifted the pillow and bedding, only to find it empty inside; he hadn’t hidden her precious Moon Cassock there, which surprised and disappointed the Demon Sect woman, Ye Youying.
“Where did you hide it!” demanded Ye Youying, the Demon Sect woman.
“You won’t find it. Once we safely get through these next few days and you haven’t caused me any more trouble, I will return it to you… Oh right, you said if I helped you, you wouldn’t let me down, so I hope you have a proper thank-you gift ready by then,” Zhu Minng said.
“Now we’re in an even worse situation!” Ye Youying said, not in the best of moods.
“That’s not my fault. The people of the White Robe Sword Sect aren’t a bunch of idiots. Coming across two people by a campfire in the wilderness, they might suspect a Demon Sect aplice signaling… Their treatment of us has already been quite courteous. If I hadn’t revealed my Yaoshan Sword Sect identity, do you think you’d still be alive now?” Zhu Minng argued.
Ye Youying of the Demon Sect also understood that Zhu Minng had a point, but the thought of being an inexplicable servant girl, detained in the Sect Forest by the White Robe Sword Sect, made her extremely ufortable, especially since the Moon Cassock that gave her the only sense of safety was in Zhu Minng’s hands.
“Hmph, then I really should thank you properly,” the Demon Sect woman said, dependent on others but not concealing her pride.
“Which power do you belong to?” Zhu Minng asked.
“Summoning Demon Sect,” Ye Youying answered.
“Isn’t the Demon Summoning Technique an orthodox Art of Mortals and Gods? How did it be a Demon Sect?” Zhu Minng asked, puzzled.
The Demon Summoning Technique is a kind of cultivation practiced by Cultivators that bears some resemnce to Dragon Shepherds. Dragon Shepherdsmand and raise dragons, while these Summoning Demon Masters could summon the wild Demon Spirits and Demon Spirits.
He remembered that at the major powerpetition, Pu Hanrong from the Pu n was a Summoning Demon Master!
