Black Myth: Starting from the Destined One-Chapter 29 - 25 Fool vs. Master

“Disrespecting the Gang Leader? Then I’ll have to deal with you according to our rules! ‘Three Knives Six Eyes’, ‘Rolling Nail Bed’, ‘Oil Cauldron Torture’, take your pick!”

“Gang Leader, spare my life!”

Startled by Li Ping’an’s threat, the lackey finally came clean:

“Gang Leader, you mustn’t say I told you, the Second-in-command had the idiot put the world’s number one aphrodisiac, ‘Indecent Immovable’ into your master’s bathwater beforehand. Once touched, one would… lose themselves, become overwhelmed with spring desires, uncontrollably wanting to… engage in that act…”

“Son of a bitch, you’re rebelling against me! You think my words are just farts, huh!”

It was only then that Li Ping’an realized he had forgotten that this bunch was a group of shameless, immoral scoundrels. Not even the Six Demons of the Wuxing Mountain could beguile them, proving they were so despicable that they had been abandoned by both humans and gods, spurned by heaven and earth.

Zixia had previously wanted to kill them, and he shouldn’t have pitied them, feeling a surge of hatred in his heart.

Worried about Zixia’s chastity being compromised, he rushed towards her room as if flying, as even a moment’s delay could lead to disaster.

As Li Ping’an was frantically running near Zixia’s room, the Second-in-command, the Third-in-command, and a few lackeys ran towards his direction in a panic:

“Gang Leader! Gang Leader! Your master is going to kill us!”

The Second-in-command, the Third-in-command, and a few lackeys shouted as they ran.

“You bunch of beasts still have the face to talk? Don’t you know why my master wants to kill you?”

Li Ping’an immediately stopped the Second-in-command, the Third-in-command, and the others, angrily questioning:

“Did you put that world’s number one aphrodisiac, ‘Indecent Immovable’, into my master’s bathwater?”

“…”

The Second-in-command, the Third-in-command, and the lackeys immediately stopped in their tracks, heads down, none daring to make a peep.

Then, angry shouts from Zixia came from behind them:

“Lewd thief! Get out here!”

“Gang Leader, I did put ‘Indecent Immovable’ in your master’s bathwater, but it wasn’t successful. Just now, we tried to peep on her bathing, but she discovered us as soon as we got close. If she catches us, us brothers are done for!”

After making his fearful confession, the Second-in-command signaled the Third-in-command with a look, and the Third-in-command immediately pleaded with Li Ping’an:

“Gang Leader, you should explain the situation to your master first, then it won’t be too late to deal with the Second-in-command afterward!”

Second-in-command, Third-in-command, and others spoke their piece and scattered like birds and beasts before Zixia could arrive and catch them.

“Damn it! These beasts! Worse than bandits! I should’ve had Master kill them all back then! Thankfully, they didn’t succeed, but now it’s up to me to clean up their mess! Pah!”

Li Ping’an planned to stabilize Zixia’s emotions before going after the Second-in-command, Third-in-command, and the others to settle accounts, so he ran toward the direction where Zixia was searching for the peepers.

Although Zixia was holding her twin swords, furiously indignant, she was fully dressed, merely having removed her hair crown, hair disheveled. It seemed that Second-in-command wasn’t lying; it must have been that Zixia noticed Second-in-command, Third-in-command, and others intending to peep on her bathing as she was about to undress.

“Master, it’s all because my discipline was not strict enough, almost letting these beasts succeed…”

Li Ping’an quickly started to explain, but before he could finish, Zixia sheathed one sword and slapped him across the face.

With a slap, the sound was incredibly crisp, leaving Li Ping’an utterly stunned.

“Zixia, why are you hitting me for no reason!”

Li Ping’an roared back at Zixia who had struck without distinction, touching his cheek, which was burning hot. Pain was a given, but it also felt unusually wet.

Which meant that Zixia had just dipped her hand into the water laced with “Indecent Immovable.”

“You ask why I hit you?”

Zixia gritted her teeth furiously, her beautiful face losing its color, trembling with anger:

“Weren’t you, the lecher, hiding in the dark, trying to peep on me taking a bath just now?”

“Hey, hey, hey! Don’t falsely accuse me! Which eye saw me peeping at you bathing? Besides, it’s not like I haven’t seen you naked before! Why would I need to peep!”

An aggrieved Li Ping’an truly lost his temper, yelling back at Zixia:

“Just now, it was the Second-in-command and the Third-in-command who were trying to peep on your bath, and they even put the world’s number one aphrodisiac ‘Indecent Immovable’ in your bathwater. If I hadn’t arrived in time, you would’ve been… done for…”

“If that’s true, it’s still because of your lack of discipline!”

“Damn it! How is this my fault? I’ll say it one last time, my name is Li Ping’an, not some damn Supreme Treasure, and I don’t even know them, they’ve got nothing to do with me. They mistook me for someone else!”

“You beast, don’t I know what kind of person you are? Clearly, it was you trying to peep at my bath, and when I caught you, you say your men put down… that unspeakable mutagen… you deserve to die!”

Just as Zixia was about to slap Li Ping’an again, in her agitation, her vision went dark, and she suddenly fainted.

Li Ping’an rushed forward to catch her, feeling like he was holding a piece of soft jade, and lightly sniffing, a continuous fragrance arose.

“Hahaha! Gang Leader, the effects of ‘Indecent Immovable’ have taken hold! Let’s follow the old rules, let’s all go in together!”

Suddenly, Second-in-command, Third-in-command, and a few underlings popped out from nowhere, rubbing their hands and running over with lecherous smiles.

Li Ping’an had thought that Second-in-command and Third-in-command were joking earlier, just peeping without adding any aphrodisiac like ‘Indecent Immovable’, but Zixia really fell for it.

“Such a cautious person as Zixia, who even the Demon Monsters can’t take advantage of, has been easily flipped by these beasts!”

“Truly a fucking idiot of a master of fools!”

Li Ping’an, who is immensely sympathetic toward Zixia, now wished he could kill these greedy, lustful, vile, and cowardly subordinates with a single strike.

Despite his rage, he knew what was urgent. The most important thing now was to get an antidote for Zixia, so he suppressed the anger welling up inside him and demanded through clenched teeth from the Second-in-command:

“You beast, where’s the antidote!”

Hearing the forceful anger in his voice, Second-in-command, the despicable character, didn’t take it seriously and even bragged:

“Gang Leader, the aphrodisiac your Master got hit with is the world’s number one ‘Indecent Immovable’, colorless, tasteless, dissolves on contact with water. Not to mention if ingested, even skin contact will turn her into the world’s number one harlot! Hahaha!”
