Chapter 39 - The First Intimate Contact (1)
Qu Ping'er's surprised expression made him very satisfied. Liu Zhengguang said with a triumph, "It was accidentally obtained when my grandfather was annihilating one of the weaker devil path sects some time ago. The various levels of the pills' formulas are hidden by different levels of restrictions. Because that laughable devil path sect couldn't even lift any of the restrictions, they didn't really know what it was and just threw it aside for so many years. Ha ha! The first-level restriction had been opened by my grandfather and some of the pills' formulas are really extraordinary."
Qu Ping'er frowned and said, "This is the sect's loot and it's such an important treasure that should belong to the whole sect. Why would the Sect Leader gave it to you?" In fact, she asked because she was suspecting whether Liu and his grandfather wanted to take this treasure for themselves.
"I will naturally hand it over to the sect. Who would dare to keep it all alone? Even if it were to kept alone, who can personally gather the ingredients of the pills' formulas? My grandfather said to me, anyone who gives it to the sect would be given a big credit, but my grandfather is already a Sect Leader, that's why..." Liu Zhengguang made a meaningful smile. Looking at Qu Ping'er, he said slowly, "My grandfather had already said that this thing should be handed over to the Sect, and that great merit will naturally fall on me. The purpose of this trip is as a camouflage to find a good reason to hand this over to the sect, otherwise, I wouldn't even bother to come out of the sect."
Qu Ping'er was a little surprised that the most dignified Green Light Sect Leader actually did something like this, it was unbelievable. The second thing was that he even told such a secret to her. Was he trying to force her to obey him?
Outside the door, Yue Qianchou's ear erected high, he just discovered the duo grandfather and grandson's scheme, it's definitely not a common treasure. Yue Qianchou didn't even dare to take a deep breath, he looked at both ends of the corridor again, then continued to put his ear on the door.
In fact, if it wasn't because of the unknown effect of the golden bead. He would have been long found out by Liu Zhengguang with the higher cultivation.
"Although this merit will be great, I don't want to enjoy it alone. As long as Junior Sister promises to be my cultivation partner. I'm willing to give you half the credit. When I hand it over, i'll report to the sect hall that this treasure was found by the two of us together. What does Junior Sister think?" Liu Zhengguang threw a self-righteously tempting condition.
Qu Ping'er was in a struggle. Since she saw Yue Qianchou downstairs, she had already changed her opinion of Liu Zhengguang. But now that Liu Zhengguang had said the secret to her, she was afraid that her slightest chance to refuse had disappeared. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Junior Sister! I have been honest with you, can't you understand me?" Liu Zhengguang saw that she was still hesitant, his tone was a bit unpleasant, the words were mixed with a hidden threat.
Qu Ping'er naturally understood it, she bit her lips and forced herself to smile, "Senior Brother suddenly told me such a big thing. I have a bit of mess in my head and need some time to clear my thoughts. I'll give my reply to Senior Brother tomorrow."
"Alright! Then I won't bother Junior Sister to rest," Liu Zhengguang gave a quick reply. Qu Ping'er got up from her seat and said, "Senior Brother, good night."
Liu Zhengguang nodded and stared at the charming face and a full bosom of the latter. He glanced at the bed in the room and could already imagine that Junior Sister would be hugged by his body tomorrow. He didn't think that Junior Sister would reject the temptation he had thrown, he saw her off at the door with a smile.
When Liu Zhengguang returned to his room and closed the door, the door of Qu Ping'er's next room opened quietly.
Qu Ping'er heaved a sigh and about to close her door. There was Yue Qianchou standing in front of her with a smile. Qu Ping'er complexion suddenly became splendid, without waiting for her reaction, Yue Qianchou squeezed himself into the small opened door, he smelt a faint fragrance, couldn't help but take a deep breath. Judging from his past experience, Qu Ping'er was still an inexperienced woman.
"Martial Uncle Yue!" Qu Ping'er exclaimed at the doorway then she closed the door.
Yue Qianchou smiled as he waved his hand, "Don't be so courteous. We haven't seen each other for a long time." He sat down at a chair.
"Yes, since the meeting at the Green Light Sect spirit stone mine, I haven't seen Martial Uncle for a year." Said Qu Ping'er faintly, she then sat opposite of him.
"Haha, it's natural for us to meet again. Don't you see it now?" Said Yue Qianchou with a cheerful laugh.
"I first heard that Martial Uncle was killed by a magical attack at the mine. The entire Green Light Sect thought that you were really dead, I could never think to meet Martial Uncle again here. Right! Since Martial Uncle is okay, why not go back to our Sect?" Asked Qu Ping'er with a doubt in her heart. She proceeded to take a clean cup, poured a tea on it, then put it in front of Yue Qianchou.
"It was a great fortune that I was able to run away and save my life, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see you," Said Yue Qianchou followed by a sigh and shaking his head, he eagerly lifted the teacup and continued, "Going back to the Green Light Sect? Uh... If I were to go back to the Green Light Sect, I'm afraid I would lose my life instead. Do you think that Sect Leader, Wu Baoru, and other elders will let me go? It's better for me to roam freely in the outside world and keep my happy life."
Qu Ping'er thought that what he said was true, if he continued to stay in the Green Light Sect, he probably wouldn't have a good end. After giving him another cup of tea, she slowly asked, "Is Martial Uncle has been well this past year in the outside world?"
"It's fairly decent."
Qu Ping'er remembered Yue Qianchou's selfless attitude when he was still in the Green Light Sect, she was not convinced with his words. Yue Qianchou's cultivation was not that high and there was no protection from a sect, only a few people could live a good life like that.
"You are still like that, and there is nothing wrong with it. I just don't know if I can meet you again." After thinking that, Qu Ping'er couldn't help but asked again, "Is Martial Uncle really won't go back to the Green Light Sect anymore?"
"I won't go back, huh..." Yue Qianchou suddenly asked, "You're not going to report to the Sect that I'm still alive, right?"
Qu Ping'er paused, she felt her heart was like being stabbed by a knife, she then tightly bit her lips, long before slowly said, "Is Qu Ping'er really that untrustworthy in Martial Uncle's eyes?"
Damn! This girl is so stimulating. Not right! It kinda feels weird, does this girl like me?
Thinking that, Yue Qianchou didn't think that he was wrong, he was feeling ecstatic in his heart. Feeling that replying would lead to a bad result, he quickly shifted the topic and said, "Since I've gotten out of the Green Light Sect, you don't need to call me Martial Uncle again. From now on, call me by my name, and we will be friends! By the way, can I call you Ping'er?" The tea in front of him poured into his belly.
Ping'er! A good affectionate call.
With that sentence, the remorse on Qu Ping'er's face suddenly disappeared without a trace. The two eyes lovingly stared at Yue Qianchou as she nodded. Qu Ping'er stood up and picked the teapot to the opposite cup to fill it.
Yue Qianchou had now fully confirmed that Qu Ping'er was really interested in him. He raised his hand and touched his nose. The face flashed a smile, Yue Qianchou suddenly caught the tender hand that was pouring the tea, he could feel the opposite's palm suddenly went stiff but didn't draw back from his holding.
What is he going to do? Qu Ping'er's face was blushed, her heart was beating fast, she was too shy to look at the other person's eyes.
