My Disciple Wants To Tease Me Every Day Chapter 8

T/N: New translator, new rules I guess? Sorry if anyone is super attached to Lumina, I am going to stick with Ning Guang in my translations because it's less awkward for me as a Chinese native speaker to have everything phonetic and names in general are not really supposed to be translated literally. Still, feel free to discuss her with whatever name you'd like in comments/forums/etc., not my place to decide!

Chapter 8 – One Thing

That person's sudden window-shattering entrance scared Di Jiufeng to death. She thrust her sword out of reflex, but was blocked by the person's s.h.i.+eld of spiritual energy before it even brushed their clothes.

"Jiufeng, it's me, no need to be afraid." A finger flicked at Di Jiufeng's wrist, wresting her longsword from her grip. "I'm here to help you. I already set a barrier around this place, you don't need to be so cautious."

He flipped the sword over to hand it back to Di Jiufeng. Seeing her single-handedly s.h.i.+elding her disciple, hesitating to take the sword, Yue Qingfeng was planning to speak again when he felt a fluctuation in the Yin energy by his side.

He humphed, lowering his eyes to look at Ning Guang. "Humph, vicious nature doesn't change!"

After a pause, he continued, "But, fortunately, you're not already bad to the bones, at least you still know grat.i.tude. Considering that you wanted to protect your s.h.i.+fu just now, I won't take your life today. Come over here, I'll help conceal you and keep that old Qian Sui in the dark."

He extended a hand to Ning Guang. This time, Yue Qingfeng really did intend to help her.

Not for anything else, just because he himself used to like Di Jiufeng.

The immortal Jiufeng of the cultivation world was an exceptional beauty with heavenly charm. Few people in this world were not captivated by her, having an interest in her was also an understandable thing. It's just that in this past month, Di Jiufeng suddenly changed a lot and never again recovered her past lovely charm, instead gaining a cold and aloof celestial aura.

She began to shun the world more and more.

Not long after their contact, Yue Qingfeng's fervor gradually waned somewhat. The mystery between Di Jiufeng and her disciple he had glimpsed that morning only served to directly break the illusion.

Di Jiufeng had helped him break through many misfortunes and difficulties in the past, this was karma repaying karma. If he didn't repay this debt promptly, it's very likely that doing so would be a difficult task in the future. So, just now, when he had sensed trouble at Pear Peak, Yue Qingfeng had immediately rushed over.

He had genuine true intentions, but Di Jiufeng didn't know whether to trust him. After all, he did want to get rid of Ning Guang.

It's just that right now, she had no other alternative. The risks in escaping were too large, and a mere early-stage nascent soul cultivator like her was no match for this old man Qian Sui. Also, even if she could escape this tiger's den, Master Qian Sui wouldn't just let this opportunity go. He would definitely broadcast the information without restraint.

But if they became evil immortals and accomplices, the utter destruction of their reputations would be a small thing. What would really be scary would be having the entire cultivation world on their backs, chasing to kill. Thinking this over, Di Jiufeng felt her heart began to tremble.

What if we take this gamble?

Yue Qingfeng was an early-stage deity transformation cultivator. With this morning's breakthrough, he should now have entered middle-stage deity transformation. Along with his status as a peak expert, if he really wanted to take Ning Guang's life he wouldn't have to resort to this complicated a method. He'd only need to exert his power and not just Ning Guang, but everyone on this sort of peak, wouldn't be able to get off the ground.

Most likely, he really did want to help her.

Having come to this conclusion, Di Jiufeng gradually calmed her mind. She dipped her head and expressed her thanks, afterwards finally pus.h.i.+ng her disciple slowly to the front. It's just that her heart still held a wisp of unease, so from beginning to end she never let go of Ning Guang's hand.

Once Ning Guang walked up to him, Yue Qingfeng raised his hand to tap her body a few times. Ning Guang only felt a stinging pain, and then couldn't release any demonic energy at all.

Yue Qingfeng said, "I've temporarily sealed her soul origin and spiritual orifices. In this period of time, even if the sect head came he wouldn't be able to sense a thing. The only thing is, this spell is temporary. You had better resolve all the hidden dangers within an hour!"

Di Jiufeng nodded, drawing Ning Guang into her side. "Many thanks to s.h.i.+xiong. If not for you, I fear us two would have become the cultivation world's public enemy today. You've done me a huge favor, no matter how I express my grat.i.tude it wouldn't be enough. If you could use my help at any point in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

Yue Qingfeng shook his head. "There's no need."

It was the girl that he himself liked, he wouldn't let Di Jiufeng fall on excessively miserable times under any circ.u.mstance. He said, "You're my s.h.i.+mei, so it's only natural that I'll help you. Besides, righteous cultivators ought to draw people onto the virtuous path. Blindly slaughtering evil spirits does not necessarily serve justice, and what you have done is not necessarily wrong. On the contrary, it's a great virtuous act. It's just there's one thing…"

Yue Qingfeng wrinkled his brow, eyes sweeping over Ning Guang and Di Jiufeng's figures. He seemed to have something to say, but no matter how he arranged his words, he felt he had no right to speak them.

Helpless, he could only sigh.
