Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 195: Farewell to Master

Yunling Mountain.

Snow Moon Forest.

"Didn’t the young lady say she would return to get something? Why isn’t she back yet?"

Liu Su squatted on the ground with a bundle on her back, glanced at the distant woods, and could not help but chuckle:

"I wonder what expression the groom would have if he knew his master was actually his wife? Ha!"

In Snow Moon Forest.

"Master, my disciple has a dear friend in Xingluo Town who is in trouble. I must go to rescue her, and then head to the Northern Wilderness. I don’t know when I will return, please don’t blame me, Master. I will return to seek your forgiveness!"

Qin Gengyun affixed a piece of talisman paper with these words written on it to a large tree near where he usually met with his master.

It was a blank talisman paper infused with Qin Gengyun’s spiritual power, ensuring the words would remain intact for a long time. When Master came here in the future, she would see it.

After affixing the talisman paper, Qin Gengyun respectfully knelt down on both knees and said loudly:

"Master, your disciple is leaving. Please take care of yourself!"

In the next moment, a pair of dainty feet in embroidered red shoes appeared before him.

Qin Gengyun was delighted and quickly looked up. Sure enough, he saw that tall, voluptuous figure, and that delicate face hidden behind a veil, with the all too familiar head of red hair.

"Master!"

Qin Gengyun exclaimed in surprise and was about to kowtow in greeting when an invisible force held him up.

Xia Qinglian coldly said, "Where are you going?"

Qin Gengyun quickly repeated the message on the talisman paper and then earnestly said:

"Master, your disciple does not know when I will return, please take care of your health. When I return, I will seek further instruction."

"Why wait until you return? I can teach you a lesson before you go."

Xia Qinglian coldly said, "Show me what progress you’ve made recently. If you can’t satisfy me, you won’t be leaving Yunling Mountain today."

Qin Gengyun dared not deceive his master. He quickly displayed his Foundation Establishment cultivation, then performed the increasingly refined Golden Dawn Fist, Earth Vein Slayer, and Golden Python Divine Fist.

"What about the Dragon Scale Technique?"

After watching, Xia Qinglian nodded slightly and asked again.

Qin Gengyun replied, "Master, the Dragon Scale Technique has also improved, but I’m unsure how to demonstrate it to you."

"That’s simple."

As soon as Xia Qinglian finished speaking, her delicate hand struck Qin Gengyun’s chest, producing a sound like metal clashing.

Qin Gengyun was taken aback, realizing that this was his master’s way of testing his Dragon Scale Technique.

He immediately stood firm, ready to let his master hit him.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Xia Qinglian’s fair hand proceeded from his chest to his abdomen, striking continuously, producing metallic sounds all the way.

Her hand suddenly moved downward, and Qin Gengyun was shocked. He quickly retreated a step, seeing Xia Qinglian looking coldly at him. He hurriedly clasped his hands and said:

"Master, don’t be angry. We are, after all, of different genders, it’s not appropriate to go further..."

Underneath her red hair, Xia Qinglian’s cheeks turned red. She cursed inwardly: Damn you, Qiu Zhihe! It’s all your fault, getting me accustomed to such shameless actions.

Recently, Qiu Zhihe had been increasingly accommodating to Qin Gengyun. She had even indulged in several ridiculous poses proposed by him.

Thus, Xia Qinglian had subconsciously forgotten the gender difference between her and Qin Gengyun, resulting in her hand moving downward without thinking, something she had practiced countless times but forgot she was appearing as his master now.

Feeling both ashamed and annoyed, she coldly said, "What other improvements have you made? Show them all to me!"

"Right, Master, I recently acquired a stick!" Qin Gengyun quickly pulled out the Heaven-Reaching Staff from his storage bag.

Currently, the Heaven-Reaching Staff had not officially recognized him as its master. It was only temporarily yielding to him, so Qin Gengyun couldn’t fully control it. He couldn’t make it transform into an embroidery needle. Such a long staff was difficult to carry, so it could only be kept in the storage bag.

Seeing the Heaven-Reaching Staff, Xia Qinglian sneered, "This staff doesn’t seem willing to recognize you. Attack me with it, and if you can’t wield even two-tenths of its power, don’t think about leaving today."

Qin Gengyun was stunned, thinking that his master’s words sounded exactly like what his wife would say.

There was no time to think further, as his master initiated the attack.

Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

"Master, how can you sneak attack? Ah!"

"When engaging in magical combat with others, do they give you notice before attacking?"

"If that’s the case, Master, watch out for my staff! Ouch!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, the young lady is really enjoying playing both roles!" Liu Su watched eagerly from behind a faraway tree.

Her eyes sparkled, and suddenly she was struck with excitement, saying:

"If in the future, the Saintess also splits into two while practicing with him, and Qiu Zhihe finishes him off, followed by Xia Qinglian having a turn as well, on the same path but with different people, tsk tsk tsk, wouldn’t that guy be in heaven?"

She then pondered, "If the Saintess were to have a baby with him, and Qiu Zhihe got pregnant, would Xia Qinglian’s belly also grow? Or would Qiu Zhihe give birth and then Xia Qinglian? Two women, one pregnancy? Twins?"

"Oh my, the possibilities are endless!"

Liu Su became more excited the more she thought about it, but then saw Qin Gengyun being knocked flying, while the Heaven-Reaching Staff circled to Xia Qinglian’s back, rapidly spinning like a firey hoop towards her.

Spiritual power surged from Xia Qinglian, erecting a barrier that stopped the Heaven-Reaching Staff, but she was still pushed back half a step.

The Heaven-Reaching Staff, ineffective in its attack, fell softly, caught in Xia Qinglian’s delicate hand, feeling quite content as it twirled a couple of times.

Xia Qinglian looked down with an icy gaze. The wretched staff dared not move recklessly anymore.

With a wave of her hand, the Heaven-Reaching Staff flew back to Qin Gengyun, who caught it with both hands.

"You may leave."

Xia Qinglian stood with her hands behind her back, saying dismissively.

Actually, the one to assess Qin Gengyun’s staff technique should have been Qiu Zhihe, but she was too soft-hearted, always deliberately holding back and losing to Qin Gengyun in practice duels.

Thus, today, only Xia Qinglian could test him.

Fortunately, Qin Gengyun had been practicing diligently, day and night, making great strides in his staff technique, barely passing the test.

"Master, your disciple..."

Qin Gengyun put away the Heaven-Reaching Staff, knelt down again, and said looking up:

"I wish to see my master’s face, lest in the future you change your guise, and I fail to recognize you, which would be a serious transgression."

Xia Qinglian paused in silence, then finally shook her head, "The time is not right yet."

Qin Gengyun was puzzled, "Master, when will the time be right?"

Xia Qinglian reached out with her hand. Snowflakes drifted down, landing on her palm, quickly melting. She sighed softly:

"When you no longer need assistance from me and your wife, and can roam the Four Domains without fear of harm."

One incense stick later.

At the foot of Yunling Mountain.

"Young lady, young lady! We’re here!"

Qin Gengyun and Liu Su saw that petite figure finally appear. Liu Su joyously waved to Qiu Zhihe, winking as she approached.

Young lady, did I do well?

Qiu Zhihe ignored her, walked up to Qin Gengyun, and said:

"Husband, sorry to keep you waiting. I forgot to bring the clothes you bought for me."

"No worries, wife, let’s go. I’m concerned for Taoist Friend Mo; let’s hurry on our way, shall we?"

Qin Gengyun smiled gently, extending his hand to her.

Qiu Zhihe lightly bit her lip, with a hint of sorrow in her clear eyes, but finally nodded and obediently placed her small hand into his palm.

The couple held hands, their forms flickered, and in a flash, they were gone.

"?"

Liu Su was utterly bewildered, "Hey, groom, young lady, did you forget about me? Hey, wait for me!"
