Celestial Master: I Have an Otherworld

Chapter 370 - 115: Wish for Another Life



Night.

The silhouette of Young Master Zheng silently appeared outside the Zheng Mansion, avoiding the patrolling governmental officials and soldiers as he headed towards a certain manor.

Soon after.

"Knock knock..."

He knocked on the back door of the manor and silently recited the identity verification phrase:

"Once with the spring breeze, we found great joy."

"I want to see Senior Sister Qin Keqing; I have important matters to report!"

"Creak..."

The back door opened, and a cute and charming girl peeked out cautiously, sizing up Young Master Zheng with a sweet smile:

"You smell really good, come on in!"

"Thank you."

Seeing the girl’s appearance, Young Master Zheng’s eyes brightened, and he cupped his hands respectfully:

"How may I address you, sister?"

"Sister?" The girl pouted:

"Do I look that old?"

"Then it’s sister." Young Master Zheng immediately corrected:

"What is sister’s name?"

"My name is Xiao Qian." The girl smiled and pointed her hand backwards:

"Miss is in the side hall, you should hurry over. Once Miss consents, you can come find me anytime to play."

"Certainly!" Young Master Zheng grinned:

"Sister Xiao Qian, I’ll head over first."

’Such a nice place, filled with fragrant sisters and beauties, I’d rather not go to a camp full of smelly men.’

He murmured in his heart, quickly making his way to the side hall, knocking and entering inside.

Inside the room, there were three people.

Besides Qin Keqing.

The other two were elders who appeared at least seventy or eighty years old. Despite their age, neither of them bore the rotten smell typical of elderly people.

With white hair and wrinkles, they seemed more like embellishments bestowed by time, adding to their stability and charm, hinting at their youthful beauty and grace.

"Senior Sister Qin."

Young Master Zheng respectfully cupped his hands:

"I saw the person you mentioned."

"Oh!"

Qin Keqing, who was brewing tea for the two elders, lit up her beautiful eyes at the words:

"Really?"

"I don’t dare deceive you, Senior Sister." Young Master Zheng said:

"The little gray I raised is very sensitive to smells. Today, when that person came to the Zheng Mansion, it reacted; it must be the person you’ve been referring to."

He added:

"Senior Sister, may I join the sect?"

"Good!"

Qin Keqing nodded:

"You have done well; once this matter is concluded, I’ll take you to the Joyful Union Sect’s nearby branch... by the way, where is your sister?"

"Sister..." Young Master Zheng’s expression changed slightly, speaking softly:

"She has some matters to attend to, so she didn’t come."

"Not came?" One of the older women raised her eyebrows slightly, their eyes under the white hair flickering disdain:

"I’m afraid she never intended to come, did she?"

"Humph!"

She snorted:

"If not for the upheaval in the sect back then, how could they have easily left its control? Always having one’s cake and eating it too."

"If she didn’t have some utility, how could we have allowed her to live until today?"

The Joyful Union Sect was chaotic back then, and many people fled, including a few key figures nurtured by the sect. Each time she thought of it, resentment welled up in her heart.

Miss Zheng was such a person. Supposed to be under the sect’s control, she leveraged her connections to threaten them instead.

The maidservant who used to be reprimanded has transformed into this, how can a former ’master’ not be annoyed?

"Elder Mu." Qin Keqing observed Young Master Zheng’s face turn, her beautiful eyes flickered, and she spoke slowly:

"Although Sister Zheng has left the sect, she hasn’t cut off her ties with us, and has offered plenty of small assistance over the years."

"It shouldn’t be so harsh."

"Humph!"

Elder Mu snorted coldly but didn’t continue to speak.

"Let it go." One of the elder men lightly waved his hand:

"She is now favored by General Lan, of noble status, and holds significant utility for us, let’s not spoil the mood over small matters."

"Elder Ye is right." Qin Keqing nodded and said:

"Xiao Zheng."

"Present." Young Master Zheng lowered his head at her words.

"Who is that person?"

"Fang Zheng, the owner of Square Porcelain, a famous ceramics merchant from Gu’an County."

"Oh!"

Qin Keqing squinted her eyes:

"No wonder there’s been no news of Senior Sister for so many years, hiding in this backwater place; she’s certainly patient."

"Her disposition has always been good." Elder Ye gently stroked his beard:

"I’m quite curious how she completed the Inquiry Heart Method, which emphasizes indulgence, without compromising her chastity back then?"

"If you want to know, just capture her." Elder Mu said coldly:

"The Inquiry Heart Method may delude, but cannot kill enemies; once knowing her whereabouts, the rest is easy."

"Elders."

Qin Keqing timely reminded:

"And also Fang Zheng."

"No problem."

Although Elder Mu was female, she was exceptionally bold, waving her hand dismissively:

"As long as it isn’t a Flawless Martial Artist, it’s not a problem. Even those certified as flawless, Elder Ye and I have slain before."

"Indeed."

Elder Ye nodded:

"First, seek..."

"Hmm?"

His brows moved slightly, the motion stopped, and he slowly looked outside the room, his voice eerie:

"So quiet!"

"Yes."

Elder Mu nodded, her eyes flashing with cold light:

"So quiet... it’s excessive!"

"Woosh!"

Before her words fell, she vanished from the spot, and simultaneously, the side window shattered as a figure leaped out.

The speed was so fast; it was as if a rope outside had pulled her suddenly.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud echoed from outside.

Elder Mu, who flew out rapidly, returned to the room even faster, landing and retreating several steps before barely steadying herself.

"Such palm force!"

Her wrist trembled, palm scorched black, clearly lightly injured.

"Are you looking for me?"

As the voice rang, the door opened on its own from the wind, revealing a towering figure standing imposing at the entrance.
