Journey to the End of the Night-Chapter 1250 - 818: Bun Girl

Baili An felt a stir in his heart. He had unexpectedly reached the Fourth Grade of Cultivation. He clearly sensed that the aura emanating from him was of the Third Grade. It seemed that he had some Magical Treasure to conceal his cultivation.

The young girl chuckled softly, her dimples adding charm to her face: "Using a treasure? But it seems to me that you are trying to take it by force. Did you ask him if he was willing before doing so?

Taking without asking is stealing. Even a three-year-old understands this. How is it possible that you, the Young Master of the Moon Accompanying Sect, do not know? Have your eighteen years of life been lived in vain?"

Baili An was speechless. This girl’s sharp tongue was really merciless.

Zhao Baixun’s face twitched, being repeatedly scolded as a dog by the girl he admired made anyone’s face look a bit awkward.

After all, the first remark was a subtle jab, but the second was a straightforward confrontation.

He said with an unpleasant expression, "The girl has a point, but extraordinary times require extraordinary actions. Those who achieve great things do not bother with trifles. The pig demon wreaks havoc through Beiliao Town. This young man clearly lacks the strength to aid the youth. My actions are for the greater good."

The young girl’s eyes narrowed slightly, and her dignified aura inadvertently showed.

Baili An sighed silently. Although he disliked getting into trouble, this girl was clearly standing up for him.

If he said nothing, it would seem quite improper.

He cleared his throat and said, "This girl is right. This Quansheng Sword is mine. If you want to borrow it, you must first get my consent.

But you have no intention at all. You don’t want to subdue the pig demon. You want to take my sword for yourself."

"Ignorant brat! What do you know?" Zhao Baixun said, angered and ashamed, pointing at him harshly.

Baili An was quite displeased with this person’s behavior. He frowned and said, "Eating without farming, wearing without weaving, stirring up trouble without cause, one knows untroubled people create mischief.

Everything in the world cannot escape reason. Since you come from an illustrious righteous path, why do you act so tyrannically, taking others’ possessions without reason? How is that different from the Demon Path!"

The young girl looked at the boy unexpectedly.

Initially, she intervened because she couldn’t stand Zhao Baixun’s arrogance.

Moreover, this boy seemed low in strength and soft in personality, appearing easily bullied. That’s why she helped him.

Of course, she was also amused by his words expressing his anger, saying how his father told him what to do.

She thought this boy’s straightforward nature was quite endearing.

Now he showed no fear at all towards a Fourth Grade Cultivator much stronger than himself, without hiding behind her for help.

His retort was logical and well-structured, indicating he had some pride within him.

Zhao Baixun’s eyes flickered with uncontrollable anger, for he found himself speechless in front of the girl he adored because of this boy.

He ground his teeth and said, "Sharp-tongued boy, what’s hiding behind a woman? Stand in front of me and fight if you have the guts. Protect your stuff with your ability!"

Baili An opened his eyes wide and said, "Are you shamelessly admitting you want to steal my sword?"

The girl was amused by his innocent demeanor again.

This boy asked so earnestly. If she were Zhao Baixun, she might indeed be enraged to the point of spitting blood.

Zhao Baixun’s face turned dark, and even the boy named Tie Yun beside him couldn’t bear to watch, tugging at his sleeve secretly.

Zhao Baixun coldly pulled back his sleeve, glaring at Baili An fiercely and saying, "Brat, do you dare to step out and fight me!"

Baili An shook his head honestly, "I do not dare. You are Fourth Grade, I’m only First Grade. Naturally, I can’t beat you."

The blunt refusal caught Zhao Baixun off guard, as his provocation failed to work on this boy.

He sneered and said, "Are you not ashamed of being this cowardly?"

Baili An shook his head seriously and said, "Not at all. You are eighteen, I’m only thirteen. You are Fourth Grade, I’m only First Grade. It’s a fact I can’t beat you, nothing to be ashamed of."

The girl’s eyes showed increasing amusement. It is generally hard to make an average person admit they are inferior.

Even if they admit it verbally, human pride will still give them a sense of inferior shame.

She could tell this boy had pride, but not a sense of inferior shame.

He could even admit frankly that he was not as strong as others.

Truly a real person...

Zhao Baixun’s face was as frosty as ice. This boy’s every word hit the mark, leaving him at a loss for how to proceed.

Ordinarily, he wouldn’t care about all this; he would simply seize what he wanted.

But now, there was her—a girl with a mysterious background, claiming to be a Loose Cultivator.

Yet her cultivation level was beyond his discernment, indicating her identity wasn’t as simple as it seemed. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

If he forcefully took it, it would sully the reputation of the Young Master of the Moon Accompanying Palace as a robber, spreading through the land. If an ordinary person said so, most people wouldn’t believe them as long as he denied it.

But with this girl’s words, he wasn’t so sure.

She, so young, with cultivation similar to his own, was likely a talented figure from a renowned family. If she spread this news, the reverence he held as the Moon Accompanying Palace’s Young Master could indeed be shaken.
