Xianxia’s Working Emperor Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Thinking of finding trouble? I welcome you!

Housekeeper Liu saw Lu Feng was staring at him, he slowly began to back off. Lu Feng coldly smiled “What? Thinking of running away?” Housekeeper Liu fervently shook his head, “No, no.” Lu Feng saw that he was not willing and clicked his tongue, “Even now, you still want to defend your partner-in-crime? Aren’t you afraid of dying from poison?”

Housekeeper Liu was obviously scared. In fact, he was terrified of Lu Feng. “I really don’t know anything, Young Master”, he pleaded while trembling in fear. Lu Feng saw that the interrogation was going nowhere so he sighed and said “It seems like I’ll have to tell the Family Head and Mistress Bai about the matter. Oh, and Miss Bai too. I’ll have to ask about how to deal with this issue.”

Housekeeper Liu heard this and was terrified. He knew once the news of him becoming cahoots with an outsider to harm Lu Feng reached the Family Head, he would be in deep trouble. “N-now that I’ve told you everything, could you please let me go, and not tell the Family Head about this?” He nervously said.

Lu Feng smirked and said “Well that depends on your behaviour.” Housekeeper Liu knew that he could do nothing else but trust Lu Feng’s words, so he reluctantly said “Fine, I’ll tell you who was the woman. Her name is Xia Qin.”

Lu Feng heard the name and frowned. “The daughter of the Xia Family, what a b.i.t.c.h! I can’t believe she actually made you poison me! Did she want me to embarra.s.s myself at the wedding?!” he said angrily.

“Yes, she did”, Housekeeper Liu said in a meek voice whilst keeping his head down. Lu Feng smiled wryly, “Good, now there are no problems. Let’s proceed to the shrine.” Housekeeper Liu was baffled, “You, really won’t tell them?” Lu Feng laughed, “I won’t pursue it. However, if that b.i.t.c.h from the Xia Family ever asks if if I’m poisoned, you best tell her that I am. If not, you’ll never get the antidote, and I’ll expose your crimes.”

Housekeeper Liu nodded furiously at the threats, “En, en, I’ll definitely be honest.” Then housekeeper Liu was puzzled, why would Lu Feng need to trick Xia Qin. In the end what is the point of it, only Lu Feng knew that it was because he wanted to give her a nice surprise.

The puzzled housekeeper Liu hurriedly brought Lu Feng to the Bai family’s shrine. The shrine wasn’t small. Outside, there was a large courtyard with numerous people gathered in front of it. Several large stone tablets were placed with numerous people paying respects and leaving offerings.

The Bai mistress saw that Lu Feng had changed and smiled, “Come quickly.” Lu Feng embarra.s.sedly approached, the Bai family head nodded slightly, “En, you stand over there and follow what we do to pay respects.”

Lu Feng made an en sound as the Bai family head began to offer respect. Except Lu Feng didn’t hear a single word of what he said. He was quietly watching but from here he could see the amount of people the Bai family had.

For example, the Bai family head, above him there was his brother who was not present at the time and had left. Then below him was his younger sister; these two men were too far apart and did not have much contact. After all, the Bai family head had set the marriage in two days. (If you’re not reading this on fakeftranslations.com then this was more than likely stolen!)

In addition to the Bai family head’s generation, there was Young Miss Bai’s generation. Since Lu Feng knew Young Miss Bai’s real name he secretly whispered in his mind, “Bai Yue, Meng Yue1and both of their names share the same character. I wonder if she shares some connection to the Meng Yue in my university. What are the chances of this happening.”

But Lu Feng did not care that much anymore. Since today he can marry the girl of his dreams, he was super happy. After the Bai family head finished reciting the names, he looked at his son “Bai Yao, come over.”

Bai Yao came over holding a lit incense stick, after paying respects he inserted the incense stick. Then the Bai family head looked towards Lu Feng, “En, you too.” Lu Feng also went over, after repeating this cycle with different people, the Bai family head looked at his wife, “Wife, you bring them to eat, after it’s done then it’s time to receive guests.”

“Ok.”

Soon after the Bai mistress brought Lu Feng and the others to eat. When Lu Feng was done he was dragged by the mistress and housekeeper towards the main courtyard which had many tables. On top of the tables were cups and a pot of tea, Lu Feng was naturally forced to receive guests.

He was carrying a white cat which the guards had not seen before, they were curious as they had never seen a cat. Lu Feng was carrying the cat around, until Bai Yao went to him slightly unhappy, “If you continue like this the guests would definitely be creeped out.”

Lu Feng smiled, “Young master, how is that possible. Just take a look at the guards adoring it, I also think the guests would like it.” Bai Yao looked around and saw everyone’s expression, helplessly sighed, “Fine then, sit down and we can have a chat.”

Lu Feng had a blank expression, he didn’t expect Bai Yao would want to chat. The guards around immediately tactfully stood at attention as if they were afraid to hear what was going to be spoken. Lu Feng could only awkwardly smile, “Young master.”

Bai Yao’s eyebrow frowned, “You’re going to marry my sister, why are you still calling me Young Master?” For a while Lu Feng didn’t reply, he then asked “I don’t know what is Young Master’s intention?”

“Call me Big Uncle.”

Lu Feng made an Oh sound and laughed, Bai Yao helplessly said, “I don’t care what you did before, how poor. When you marry my sister you must take good care of her, don’t let anyone bully her, understood?”

Lu Feng a.s.sertively replied, “Big uncle, don’t worry I’ll only let her bully others. Who even dares to bully her.” Bai Yao almost spat out while laughing, “When you have the ability then say, you’re not stronger than her yet.”

When Lu Feng heard this he smiled. “ Behind a strong woman there is a man’s love.” Bai Yao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “If she had heard that, your skin would definitely be peeled off.”

Lu Feng looked around then laughed, “Speaking of your sister, why hasn’t she come out.” Bai Yao replied, “It is because of a custom, only at noon when the wedding starts will she come out.

Lu Feng made a Oh sound, he suddenly understood. Then a guard called out, “Tian Family young master has arrived!”

Bai Yao was confused, “This Tian family, why have they arrived so early ah.” Lu Feng was also curious, it was still morning. Usually if it was someone ordinary, arriving early wasn’t anything of particular concern. Except this was the Tian family which was the one that held the most power in Qinglong town, arriving this early was just wishful thinking.

At the main entrance, the Tian family’s young master Tian Lang was walking whilst waving a fan and laughing. Bai Yao stood up and went over, “Tian Lang, why are you so early.”

Tian Lang continued laughing, “I was thinking of meeting the Bai family’s new son-in-law. See if he really was like the rumors, a beggar.” Bai Yao’s face suddenly became ugly, he knew they were here to cause trouble.

The Bai family’s guards faces also turned ugly, after all they are somewhat part of the Bai family. When their master’s face was beaten how could they remain clam.

Tian Lang as if he was feeling regret hurriedly said, “It was just a slip of the tongue, your new son-in-law isn’t a beggar.” At this moment Lu Feng smiled, “I was wondering who it was, turns out it was the young master Tian. Are you actually blind, didn’t you yesterday already meet me? Your guards also had a good look of me all frightened and carried you away. And in the end?”

When he spoke finish, the Bai family’s guards all felt refreshed, Bai Yao quickly seized the chance to counterattack, “Young master Tian, are you really blind? Do you need me to bring someone over to check.”

“No need for it”, Tian Lang said in annoyance. Bai Yao then smiled and said “If there’s nothing else for me, I’ll be going back inside for a little break.” Tian Lang huffed contemptuously, and replied “I heard rumors that Lu Feng is the disciple of the Living Immortal, so he must have a certain degree of strength and skill. Today, I’ve brought the Tian Family’s Cultivator to test out his skill!. What d’ya think of this?”

The crowd gasped when they heard of the Tian Family’s Cultivator. They all knew in order to defeat a Cultivator in battle, the person has to go through rigorous cultivation, and be ten times stronger than an average human. However Bai Yao wasn’t an idiot, and immediately rejected Young Master Tian’s offer. “Young Master Tian, today is a happy occasion, so please refrain from any acts of violence. If you do want to test out Lu Feng’s skill, reschedule it to another day.”

Tian Lang indignantly replied “How can this be? This Cultivator that came with me today sacrificed his own training time to come here. He really wants to spar with Lu Feng, am I right, Gui s.h.i.+?”

At that moment, a black midget emerged from the guards. His eyes were like a snake’s, and he merely stared straight forward. “That’s right, I want to have a friendly sparring session with the Living Immortal’s disciple, and test out his abilities.” he said.

Bai Yao frowned and said “Young Master Tian, are you here to look for trouble?” His sudden outburst towards Tian Lang caused the guests to gasp and turn their heads toward him.

In that instant, there was a huge uproar. Tian Lang’s intention today was to come and mess things up and embarra.s.s Lu Feng. Whether Lu Feng decided to retaliate or not, it didn’t matter to Tian Lang. He said mockingly “Looks like the disciple of the Living Immortal is just useless trash. Or should I say, beggar?”

The servants of the Tian Family chuckled in amus.e.m.e.nt. Bai Yao couldn’t take it anymore, and lashed back, saying “Fine! If it’s a fight you want, I’ll fight you!” However, this only made made Tian Lang laugh. “Young Master Bai, we all know you’ve cultivated before. Just a shame, after so many years of cultivation, you still can’t amount to anything. Well, you’re still considered a Cultivator, aren’t you?” Tian Lang taunted.

Bai Yao huffed and retorted “You’re letting this Cultivator in, so why can’t I fight him? Cultivator versus Cultivator.” “No can do. This man wants to fight Lu Feng, not Young Master Bai. So Young Master Bai, please just let us proceed.” Tian Lang requested.

Bai Yao coldly replied “You want to get to him, you are going to have to go through me first.” Lu Feng heard this and was grateful for what Bai Yao is doing for him. Bai Yao wanted to protect Lu Feng, and wanted to protect this wedding. If something happened to Lu Feng, there would be no groom, and it would be embarra.s.sing.

The Bai Family servants that were onlooking went to call for Mistress Bai and the Bai Family Head. When the Bai Family Head heard of the news, he rushed to the scene as quickly as he could. Upon arriving, he saw Bai Yao and Tian Lang quarreling. He stepped between the two men and laughed “Young Master Tian, if you’re hear to have a friendly duel with my son, why not postpone it to another day? After all, today is my daughter’s wedding.”

However, Tian Liang stood his ground and replied “Bai Family Head, you’re the head of the third most influential family in QingLong Town. The person that your daughter is marrying to, is the disciple of the Living Immortal. Of course we want to test out the abilities of this man, or you’re just gonna let a liar and a fake enter your household. That wouldn’t be good, would it?”

The Bai Family Head obviously knew that Lu Feng had no abilities, and knew that this was all to cure Miss Bai’s illness. Just as he was about to reject Tian Lang, there was an almost melodic laugh that came from the entrance. “The Xia Family would also want to see if the new son-in-law of the Bai Family is really as competent as he’s said to be. Or perhaps, maybe a fake?” the stranger said.

The Bai Family was at a loss. Not only did the Tian Family showed up, but now the Xia Family has as well.

The Xia Family was led by Xia Qin, and all the guests knew that today, these two families were going to make Lu Feng’s life a living h.e.l.l. The hope of Lu Feng’s wedding going smoothly slowly died out.

The Bai Family also knew that today would be troublesome. Bai Yao stood in front of the both, and sternly “Miss Xia, Young Master Tian. Like I just said, if you’re so h.e.l.lbent on getting Lu Feng, you’re gonna have to go through me first!”
