Chapter 49: What sorcery is this?!!
"Eh? Where is he going?" Xiao Shen raised a brow and tilted his head slightly.
When Ding Mo looked over, all he saw was the sparkling radiance of Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma, and, due to the fact that the human eyes would usually focus on a single large object instead of a small one beside it, he did not even notice the infinitesimal presence that was Xiao Shen.
"It seems as though... He got scared away?" Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma also tilted her head. She too was confused.
Xiao Shen pursed his lips and looked at the fleeing Ding Mo. He noticed that the fellow was headed for the cinema and his face fell into a frown. "What if he plans to ambush us? Or capture Tian Hua?"
"Hmm. That would be very stupid, but who’s to say that he’s not an idiot?" Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma nodded in agreement.
She grabbed his hand and broke into a brisk walk. To an onlooker, it would seem as though she was just leisurely walking, but, if one were to pay attention and focus on her movement, they would find that she was moving very fast!
Xiao Shen who was being dragged alone almost could not keep up.
Almost.
He was someone who had experienced supersonic speed with his own two legs, it was only natural that he would be able to adapt to this rather fast speed.
***
Tian Hua waited for a bit, and then she saw a very handsome man approach the cinema.
He’s quite a cutie, but still not comparable to Xiao Shen-ge...
She thought to herself.
This handsome man was busy looking around, as though he were looking for someone, and stopped repeatedly on the way to ask for something.
Soon enough, he reached her.
Ding Mo smiled and waved at her. "Good afternoon, little miss, please, can you help me confirm if this building is the university town’s Cinema? I’m supposed to meet someone there..."
"Oh?" Tian Hua raised a brow.
He couldn’t be that Xiao Shen-ge’s cousin, right?
She returned his smile and nodded her head. "Yes, this is indeed the cinema. Do you, perhaps, know the name of the person you’re looking for? Or maybe have a picture or even a phone number? That would help you a lot in finding them..."
"Ah, I lost my phone on the way here, so I have neither her photo or phone number. However, I do know that her name is Tian Hua." He replied.
"Ah, are there such coincidences in this world?"
Tian Hua beamed brightly and pointed at her self. "Haha, I am indeed Tian Hua! What is your name, Shen-ge’s cousin?"
"My name, well you can call me Mo Ding. I’m coming from afar and was passing by the university town, so I decided to drop by and pay a visit, haha." Ding Mo said cheerfully.
All he had to do now was to take the Desolate Yin sect’s gift and hand it over to the despicable Xiao Shen fellow.
As it turned out, Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma was right in her suggestion. The Desolate Yin sect had sent him with a gift so that they could make peace.
"Hmm, first Shan Ye-jie was passing by, and now Mo Ding-ge. Is the Xiao family having a family reunion or something? Tian Hua joked lightly.
"Shan Ye?" The smile on his face froze for a split second before it went back to normal. "Haha, is Fairy, I mean, Shan Ye-jie here too? What a coincidence..."
[A/N: 善业 (Shan Ye literally translates to ’Good Karma’.]
In his heart, however, profanities rained upon his luck.
F*ck!!!!!
Why am I so unlucky?
Why is that b*tch even here?!
The Buddhist nun Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma was a sworn enemy to the Desolate Yin sect, such that all disciples had been told to stay away from her.
That senior with the bald head must have been Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma!
Ding Mo thought to himself.
That must be the reason why his body had subconsciously avoided her!
If not, by Cultivator etiquette, one was to cup fists and greet any senior they came across when in the mortal realms.
"Little miss Tian Hua, where is Xiao Shen now?" Ding Mo asked with a forced smile.
"Ah, he and Shan Ye-jie stepped out a few minutes ago, and they’re yet to return." Tian Hua frowned slightly, she felt like a third wheel or something as Xiao Shen was paying all his attention to Shan Ye.
"Oh." Ding Mo nodded his head.
Good! This means I can escape now before they return!
He forced a smile and nodded back at Tian Hua. "Ah, just look at the time. It seems like I’ll have to visit Xiao Shen another time, haha."
Fairy Virtuous Nun of Good Karma, that despicable Buddhist nun, was someone who hated the Desolate Yin sect with her heart and soul. Surely she would not let even a small second circle Pseudo Master realm cultivator like him go!
"Haha, is junior brother fellow daoist leaving already?" A pleasant female voice sounded from behind him and a slender and smooth jade white palm was placed on his shoulder.
"I’m afraid so..." Ding Mo chuckled in a self deprecating manner as he turned around. Then, as though he were hit by lightning, his body suddenly stiffened.
F*ck me!
F*ck you!!
F*ck everyone!!!
F*ck the world!!!!
Ding Mo spawned a thousand thousand different curses in his heart as he saw that bald head that glittered in the sun.
Behind him, was a woman with a very genial smile on her face. It was the kind of smile that made one drop all their apprehension and see her as a friend.
Such a genial smile~
Ding Mo thought in his mind. Then, he shook his head.
No, no! This woman is an enemy! An ENEMY!
But, unexpectedly, no matter how much he emphasized it, he found that he could not bring himself to do her harm due to that genial smile.
His eyes widened in shock and surprise.
F*ck! What sorcery is this?!
Meanwhile, Xiao Shen smiled coldly and looked at the petrified Ding Mo. He waved lightly and tilted his head. "Hello, were you looking for me?"
