NovelEnglishChapter 134: Burial Mound, Desire to Possess
How could Lu Chengfu be willing to give it back? Hearing Haozi’s words, he panicked for fear that the rascal would suddenly grab it from him. He was still worried even after hiding the talisman in the safest place in his pocket, and he covered his chest and said, “Haozi, have a heart. You randomly threw this talisman to me back then. I didn’t want it, yet you forced it on me. Since you gave it to me, it’s mine.”
Seeing the particularly spectacular regret on Haozi’s face in front of him, Lu Chengfu continued to stab his good friend in the heart. “Besides, that rascal Wang Xuewen burned so many of the talismans; why aren’t you making a fuss about that? You also didn’t ask Chongying to return the talismans you gave him. In the end, don’t you just covet my talisman? Want me to give it to you?” Lu Chengfu snorted. “No way! Over my dead body!”
As they talked, they brought up the talismans being burnt again. Wang Xuewen felt guilty and remorseful. He hurriedly snuck a glance in Chi Shuyan’s direction out of the corner of his eye, afraid that his apprenticeship with her would go up in smoke because of this trivial matter. With a forehead full of cold sweat, he blinked anxiously at the two people in front of him. “Can you not mention this matter? I… This, this, this… It wasn’t intentional. Was my brain muddled back then?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had been so full of himself when he burned them back then. Now, he was filled with just as much regret. Those talismans were simply treasures among treasures in his eyes now. It pained him to think about it!
Moreover, he felt that there might have been a few powerful ones like Lu Chengfu’s among the talismans he burned back then. After his narrow escape from death this time, he had a very deep impression of Lu Chengfu’s talisman.
He recalled how, because of that talisman, all those ghost things went around Lu Chengfu, and how that brat still had time to eat chicken drumsticks in that damn place.
Wang Xuewen was now filled with envy and deep regret. Why were his hands so cheap back then?!
He also now knew that strange things existed in the world. The trauma left in his heart from this adventure was too great. He was simply afraid that he would run into that kind of ghost stuff again. Those talismans were simply life-saving treasures.
But before he could even become a disciple and ask about the talismans, he was dragged back into this matter. Wang Xuewen was utterly vexed, afraid that he would offend his future ‘Master.’
“Get lost!” Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu shouted at Wang Xuewen in unison.
Wang Xuewen eyed Chi Shuyan out of the corner of his eye, afraid that she would be angry. With trembling lips and a pitiful expression, he suddenly tugged at Chi Shuyan’s sleeve, looking for sympathy. “Sister-in-law, I… I really didn’t do it on purpose!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChi Shuyan wasn’t angry, but Zhu Bocheng was reminded of Wang Xuewen burning the talismans when Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu brought it up. At the thought that half of those precious talismans had been burned by this brat, he still couldn’t help but vomit blood.
Zhu Bocheng didn’t care how Wang Xuewen quibbled about it; he took off his shoe and threw it at Wang Xuewen’s head. “You f*cking burned them. How many did you burn back then, you brat? Pay them all back with interest later! If you don’t, I’ll make you spit them out!”
Wang Xuewen really wanted to cry this time.
Qi Zhenbai was already uncomfortable seeing these rascals pester his woman, and seeing this Wang brat grope her, his pair of fierce eyes almost bore holes into the boy’s hand that was tugging his woman’s sleeve despite his extremely calm face.
Wang Xuewen sensed something wasn’t right and suddenly met the stern eyes of this Qi family member. He jumped in fright and quickly let go.
Qi Zhenbai strode over and wrapped his arm possessively around Chi Shuyan’s shoulders, his tone powerful and irrefutable. “Go out, I have something to say!”
