Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shen Nianmo took a deep breath. Then, he pulled one of his junior apprentices aside and demanded a detailed description of the battle. “Tell me everything about the situation from the moment she arrived; the more details, the better.”
The junior was a quick-witted man with an unfailing memory. Every time he told a story, it was always very lively and vivid, beguiling his audience with many tales of adventure. He was an honest storyteller without many additional dramatic elements; he would retain the originality of his stories.
He had the worst Kung Fu among the group, so he did not get much attention from his master. Moreover, Shen Nianmo’s endless charm had completely sheltered him in the shadow. The eldest senior was always the center of attention wherever he went; many juniors liked to surround themselves around him.
Ever since Shen Nianmo came to the Fengyun Valley, the junior had only managed to greet him once. Surely, he did not expect that Shen Nianmo would still remember him by calling out his name. He was obviously very excited.
Enthusiastically, he told Shen Nianmo the entire scene from the moment Gu Xijiu arrived at the battlefield. He even used his hands to make lively gestures.
From his memory, he was able to recall every detail of the fight and every conversation that happened. It was as though everything was happening again.
Shen Nianmo listened carefully without making any interruptions.
Certainly, his junior felt a little awkward when he had to convey what Gu Xijiu had originally said during the battle. Her words, after all, would come as an insult to a man. Moreover, Shen Nianmo was a proud man with high dignity.
When Shen Nianmo heard what she had said, he did not show any unpleasant expressions. Instead, he gave the junior a smile. For sure, the junior could not figure out how he truly felt.
Men were obviously more interested in fights, so when his junior talked about the fight scenes, he sputtered on with very lively gestures. Every punch and every kick from different sides were described entirely from his point of view, giving Shen Nianmo a very clear picture of how the battle was like.
While Shen Nianmo was busy listening to his junior’s description, he would still try to activate the directed audio spell in his hand. Obviously, he was eager to get in touch with someone. Unfortunately, he received no response. The junior was bewildered by the lack of response, for he could not figure out who would dare to disrespect the eldest senior.
When Master Fengxing approached them, the junior was already ending the story by quoting what Gu Xijiu said at the end. “I will be back to make you all pay the price!”
The junior’s tone sounded exactly like her. When he turned around, he was shocked to see his master standing behind him. Master Fengxing looked very unpleasant. His deeply knitted brows had created deep creases on his face. The junior retreated anxiously and greeted him before leaving swiftly.
Master Fengxing turned his eyes to Shen Nianmo to study him. At this moment, Shen Nianmo was lying on the trunk of a tree. He neither greeted nor said a word when he saw Master Fengxing approaching. Instead, he only gave him a scornful smile.
The sheer force of character from the child of six years old was very dominating, powerful enough even for Master Fengxing to notice his imposing manner. Moreover, he was guilty of lying to the young man. “Nianmo, why did you come back so early?”
“Don’t you think that you have kept me away in the dark long enough?” Shen Nianmo said firmly, with a smirk on his face. He did not even acknowledge him as his master this time.
“Nianmo, I had to, it was against my will. Your parents have entrusted your safety to us.”
