Chapter 30 Qingwei Xianyun has a plan Lingxiang sorted out the sundries in the house. Although she had asked Long Qi and his men to move the big things that day, there were still some small things that needed to be sorted out. Looking at Maidong sighing at the table, she really couldn't count on him at all. "I say, now you have learned 70% of the medical skills of your senior brother, but you are still a disciple of the Taoist sect. Why do you come to my Qingwei Peak to think about love instead of practicing martial arts and meditation in broad daylight?" Lingxiang complained, but Maidong seemed not to hear her. She continued to twist her braids, or sit there with her face propped up, or smile slightly with her head down. "After I have tidied up Xianyunju, I will definitely go and ask Senior Brother Fuyin whether he will care about the cabbages that have been growing for so many years and are about to be put into someone else's pot." When Master Fuyin was mentioned, Maidong came back to his senses. "Don't go and gossip about this to my master. If he knew about this matter, he would never let it go." "Oh my, the fortune hasn't even been decided yet." Lingxiang mocked in her usual roundabout tone, like a master in an opera troupe, "Look at what you are saying, what fortune are you talking about? Do you know where she lives, whether she is married, and who is in her family? You talk like this, as if good things are about to happen, and you are not ashamed!" Mai Dong was about to retort, but Ling Xiang continued, "Besides, since he has already worshipped Yuan Qing, he has the intention to practice Taoism. How do you know if he wants to practice Taoism like your master, or if he wants to be a Taoist priest living in the Fire Residence?" After hearing what she said, Mai Dong was speechless - judging from his words and actions that day, he seemed to be free of desires and devoted to the Tao. If that was true, then wouldn't he be wishful thinking? Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling lost. She stood up dejectedly and pretended to help Lingxiang pack up her things to hide the disappointment on her face.
"Pfft!" Lingxiang couldn't help but laugh when she saw her like this. Forget it. This little girl is just beginning to fall in love and isn’t very worldly-wise, so I’d better not tease her. "After years of practicing Taoism, you can't even read faces? I'm afraid you're just too embarrassed!" Upon hearing this, Maidong suddenly looked up at Lingxiang. "Although that man is cold and taciturn, he has stars in his eyes. It is obvious that he still wants something in this world. And looking at the way he treats Zhao Wuyang, I think he still has emotions in his heart. He is definitely not a pure cultivator." "Are you serious? In just a short period of time, you have seen all this so clearly?" Mai Dong was skeptical, but he was very happy in his heart. "Tsk tsk tsk~" Lingxiang smacked her lips to show her dissatisfaction, "After all, I am also your ninth aunt, one of the nine sons of Yuanqing." "Tsk! That was in the past! A hero never brags about his past achievements. You have long given up that title." "Hey~ How can you talk like that!" Ling Xiang said angrily, "I'm not a hero, I'm just a weak woman." Maidong glanced at her with disdain - if she were a weak willow, the wind would have to blow around her, otherwise she would not know how she was being plotted against. "But then again, it's not certain whether you two are destined to be together." Lingxiang changed the subject, causing Maidong to shudder. "You are at least a disciple of a sect that is in charge of punishment, but the sword moves I saw him use yesterday...tsk tsk tsk...his talent is really mediocre. I'm afraid there is no hope for him to be promoted." I knew this damn girl had something else in her words. "We grew up together. I don't think I know that you have some bad intentions. Just say what you want to say. There's no need to beat around the bush." Maidong rolled his eyes and said. "I heard that Senior Brother Fuyin has a set of Dragon Entangling Sword Technique..." "Stop, stop!" Before Lingxiang could finish, Maidong said, "I heard from my master that the sword technique was entrusted to me by a deceased friend. If I meet the descendant of that family by chance in the future, I have to give it back to him." "It's said that we are destined to meet, but it's not certain whether we can meet. Even if we meet face to face, we can't know whether he is the so-called descendant. If we can't meet him, will he rot in your master's bookcase?" "That won't do. If the master finds out, he will punish me to copy the Tai Su Jing again!" Mai Dong shuddered as she remembered the last time she secretly took the Su Wen from Fu Yin Zhenren's collection to read, but accidentally dropped it into the foot washing water. When the master found out, he punished her to copy the Tai Su Jing three hundred times. "No, no! Absolutely not!" Maidong shook his head firmly. "Hey~" Lingxiang sighed sarcastically, which made her shudder again - judging from the tone of this damn girl, she must be up to some bad idea again.
"Originally, looking at the way Xinyi wields the sword, I do have a copy of the 'Water Cutting Art' that matches his chopping and slashing technique, but if I give it to him, wouldn't I be making a losing deal? Oh, forget it, forget it, it's fate, let it be!" as predicted! "It's been so many years, and whenever you speak in this tone, you must be doing something bad in a roundabout way! As long as you stick your butt out, the west room will be in trouble!" Maidong cursed angrily. Seeing her like this, Lingxiang knew that she agreed, and hurriedly sat down beside her. "Oh my, it's mutual. Thanks, thanks!" These two devils, one relying on the protection of their senior brothers and the other relying on the favor of their master, did a lot of bad things in the mountains when they were young. I still remember that when Lingxiang was testing the medicine, Maidong found a way to put it into the food of Elder Zhaoming, which caused Elder Zhaoming to have diarrhea all night and he was so weak that he couldn't get out of bed for several days. "When are you going to steal?" Maidong rolled his eyes and asked helplessly. "Tsk! How can it be called stealing when it comes to cultivation?" Lingxiang smacked her lips and said seriously, "I just borrowed it to study for a few days, and I will return it after use! The first martial arts performance is coming soon, I am afraid it will be too late, but the day of the martial arts performance is just the right time. Although your master has closed the door, several elders are here, and he must not be absent. At that time..." "You do this for Long Qi, do you really just treat him as your disciple?" Mai Dong suddenly asked seriously without waiting for her to finish her words. Lingxiang was startled when she heard this, and lowered her head without saying anything. Seeing her like this, Maidong guessed that there must be something hidden. "Whether it's what happened today or the night exploration a few days ago, this Seven Star Dragon Abyss is no ordinary thing. Although I don't know the origin of the sword, as you said, you are a cultivator after all. Although the sword is sealed in the sheath, the spiritual energy is hard to conceal. There must be a weapon spirit residing in it." Having said this, Lingxiang still remained silent, with her head down as if she was thinking about something. "We've been sisters for many years, can't you even tell me?" After asking this question, Maidong looked at her steadily - Lingxiang seemed heartless on weekdays, but those were just minor things. If there was really any difficulty, she would endure it alone and never let others know easily. Just like her monastic path. "I just..." Lingxiang looked up at Maidong and smiled brightly, "I want someone to help me take care of the herb garden." …… Since that day, Long Qi practiced more diligently, and was extremely focused every time he practiced sword. Although he still couldn't do it smoothly, he still tried his best. Even Xinyi was surprised by his change. ——Dad, Mom, brothers, now I am a Taoist, and from now on I will practice hard. When I have learned enough, I will definitely go down the mountain and kill my enemies to avenge you! (End of this chapter)
