Chapter 104 - 102: Drunk
Shen Qinghe felt very nervous as soon as she heard this, "What nonsense are you talking about, elder sister?"
"What I mean is that sometimes I have to go out for trials, or to carry out missions assigned by the sect, and when I’m not in the Sky Pole Sect, no one is there to take care of you, which makes me worried. Nobody knows when Elder Shen will wake up, so if someone who loves you can always take care of you, I would feel at ease." Of course, this was just an excuse Shen Zhiyao had come up with.
She just felt that Qinghe was paying too much attention to Dongfang Wuya, fearing that Qinghe would be so captivated by Dongfang Wuya’s charm that she wouldn’t be able to extricate herself. If Qinghe had someone she loved, naturally she wouldn’t be attracted to Dongfang Wuya anymore.
"There’s no need. I have acquired the Snow Bone Grass and will cultivate diligently. Relying on others to take care of me is not as good as improving my own cultivation base to take care of myself." The moment Shen Qinghe stopped speaking, the black rope in her hand suddenly danced in front of her, as if agreeing with her words.
Seeing the jubilant black rope made Shen Zhiyao frown, "Other than pleasing you, what else can this black rope do? You have gained quite a bit of real combat experience from the Beasts from Another World, and your swordsmanship has become quite remarkable. You should be matched with a divine sword..."
"I like it, and it is fated to be with me. I think one doesn’t have to be a sword cultivator. In the battle against the Beasts from Another World, I have developed quite a few moves that can combine swordsmanship with Wood Element Technique. It’s not necessary to use a sword at all." Worried that the black rope would be unhappy, Shen Qinghe quickly interrupted Shen Zhiyao.
Shen Zhiyao knew her younger sister was protective of her own interests but when she saw the black rope flying to her side looking smug, her anger suddenly dissipated.
What frustrated her was that the news of Qinghe obtaining a black rope in the Spiritual Treasure Repository quickly spread throughout the sect, and everyone was talking about it, saying that Qinghe’s luck had been somewhat lacking compared to Nan Sheng.
Upon entering the Spiritual Treasure Repository, Nan Sheng had seized the only Ancient Divine Sword inside, whereas Qinghe had only acquired an inconspicuous black rope. The difference in their fortune was like night and day.
These people really were odd, always comparing Nan Sheng with Qinghe in everything. Would they die if they didn’t compare?
So, whenever Shen Zhiyao saw the black rope on Qinghe’s wrist, it just became more and more of an eyesore to her.
