Blood Demon (3)

The magic circle under her feet quickly collapsed.

Flying sand and rocks, long winds swept across, the crimson land was cracked inch by inch, there was a loud bang in the distance, and the bamboo mountain collapsed in an instant.

Xiao Bai shouted: “My rat offspring!”

While the group of bamboo rats squeaked, they scurried among the rolling rocks. They were agile, and there were no casualties.

Xiao Bai looked at the ruins, crying, “What can I do?”

All the rats echoed: “Squeak squeak squeak!”

Huai Bai held Pei Yu and walked out of the broken circle. The sky outside is bright, the wasteland is declining and the sky is declining, and the autumn is so cold and icy.

They only stayed one night in the ghost village, but more than half a year had passed in the outside world.

Now it’s time for Gushan to start an introductory trial.

Pei Yu was a little surprised, “Master, wasn’t it spring when we came in?”

Huai Bai nodded, “The time in the ghost village is different from the time outside.”

Casually pull a village out of the jurisdiction of heaven and rebuilds laws in it, just like a god who created the world.

Pei Yu thought, was the previous self so strong?

Xiao Bai also ran out with the rats, and when she saw this scene, she was also bewildered for a long time.

“What’s the matter? Isn’t the demon making some tricks?”

Huai Bai raised her sleeves, and a sword gas struck her, causing Xiao Bai to yell in pain, “Why are you hitting me!?”

Pei Yu said with a cold face: “If she beats you, you will be beaten. Do you still have to choose a date?”

This demon dared to make a big noise.

Xiao Bai was so angry that tears came out, “You bully people! No, bully demons!”

Huai Bai smiled and rubbed the child’s face, then snapped her fingers and raised her eyebrows towards Xiao Bai, “Would you like to go back to Gushan with me? There is a large bamboo forest behind Shouxian Peak.”

Xiao Bai puffed up her hair and said angrily, “No, you cultivators are very bad!”

“Ga!”

A huge and beautiful peacock flew from the sky, and its bright and beautiful feathers were flying all over the sky, like an ocean of white snow falling down.

Xiao Bai raised her head and couldn’t help sighing, “It’s so beautiful!”

Huai Bai picked up Pei Yu and jumped on the peacock’s broad back, “Da Bai, let’s go back to Gushan.”

(T/N: Da Bai means big white but since it’s used as a name here, I decided to stick with the original Chinese pinyin)

Da Bai: “Ga!”

“Hold on!”

Xiao Bai flew into the air and followed her, “I will go back with you, but you have to settle down my grandchildren and send those children into reincarnation.”

Huai Bai lay in the big white soft feathers, looking at the deep blue sky, without speaking.

Pei Yu knelt and sat beside her, looking down at her soft profile, the master of the heart of Dao was thinner than her previous life.

“Master, what is the relationship between that old friend and you?”

Huai Bai sighed, “She, she is my Daoist companion.”

(T/N: Daoist companion is basically being married in the cultivation world)

There was a thud in Pei Yu’s head, blushing to the point of bleeding, and she turned her head to cover her gaffe.

How could that gorefiend bastard be like this? She and her master are innocent, and she has always treated her teacher with much respect, and never dared to have a defiled heart.

She and Master are innocent……

Huai Bai smiled, and said, “But it’s already divided.”

Pei Yu gritted her teeth, somehow, and felt very uncomfortable. “Why……” She clenched her hand, paused, and asked softly: “Why did you separate?”

The wind roars.

Huai Bai propped up the enchantment to block the wind for Pei Yu, took off the green feather cloak on her body, and put it on her shoulders.

The child’s phoenix eyes were moist, and the corners of her eyes were red, similar to the person in memory.

Huai Bai sighed in her heart, held the child in her arms, and whispered: “That person, she betrayed me, and I killed her.”

Pei Yu stiffened, “Ah……”

“After cutting more than three thousand swords, even the clouds are rusty. If it weren’t for this, I would have to chop her into mashed meat! That bastard!”

Pei Yu thought, it’s over.

She twisted her body and suddenly felt a little pain in her body.

… …

On Lingsu Peak, there is an immortal stone with a high hat and wide belt. On the side of the immortal stone, there is a ten-thousand-year-old pine. The pine cover is like a cloud, and it is lush and green.

(T/N: high hat and wide belt is the costume of ancient scholars)

Under the pine tree, three beautiful young female cultivators are sitting leaning against the stone.

If anyone flies over here, they will be surprised, because these three beautiful women who play mahjong while eating melon seeds are the three famous peak masters of Gushan.

“Do you want it, Dao Seniors?” Lingsu Peak Master asked.

Zhuoyu Peak Master glanced at the tiles in her hand and said, “No.”

Huangzhong Peak Master frowned: “Bad tile, no.”

Lingsu Peak Master flipped over the three cards on the boulder, “Wow, right, I got a Little King, I’m sure to win.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master threw the tile on the stone, grabbed the melon seeds and knocked them out, “If you don’t play anymore, I’ll be lucky that you can’t win the magic weapon I got from my hard work. Some time ago, the senior brother also said that the opening of the Sword Test and the Tianhai Secret Realm is coming soon, so we need to find more magic weapons for the new disciples.”

Huangzhong Peak Master also nodded, “Stop playing.”

The Lingsu Peak Master spread her mahjong tiles, “Look, I have the King Burst, and four twos. It can be turned over many times.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master peeled off the melon seeds and handed them to Huangzhong Peak Master, “Why is your luck suddenly so good?” She squinted her eyes, her red lips turned up slightly, “Some time ago, I always saw you sneaking to the little junior sister. You said, did you do something?”

“Hahaha,” Lingsu Peak Master smiled crookedly, “I’m telling you!” She lowered her voice, “The koi raised by the younger sister can really be transported!”

(T/N: koi as in koi fish)

“Really, really?” Zhuoyu Peak Master’s eyes lit up, “I’ll go grab a tail tomorrow.”

Huangzhong Peak Master pursed her lips, “Speak to Junior Sister first.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master said, “She has disappeared for half a year. I don’t know where she went to play. Who can find her?”

Lingsu Peak Master agreed and said: “Yes, I heard that she beat the deacon of Mo Sect Ming Ghost Hall before she left. Hahaha Chang Xiao usually looks stern, just like people owed her a lot of money. I wonder what did it look like when she was taught a lesson by the younger sister?”

Zhuoyu Peak Master suddenly thought of something, and a few tears dripped from the corner of her eyes, “These people, one by one, fell onto the ground to bully the little junior sister. They didn’t have the courage before.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master said with comfort: “It’s alright, don’t cry, don’t cry.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master thought of the sadness, took a small hand and said sadly: “Pity my junior sister who is such a good person, yet she was a widow at a young age.”

Suddenly a duck call resounded through Gushan in the back mountain.

A huge white bird rose into the sky, the white feathers gleaming, and the clouds hovered over.

Huangzhong Peak Master glanced and said, “Little Junior Sister is coming back.”

Zhuoyu Peak Master wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, took out a paper crane with a voice, and shouted excitedly: “Junior Sister, go back to Gushan, three missing one!”

(T/N: three missing one is a term in mahjong to indicate that they need one more fill to be able to play)

“Three missing one!”

The crisp voice of Zhuoyu Peak Master echoed in the air.

Pei Yu asked curiously: “Master, what does three missing one mean?”

Huai Bai’s smile was not natural, “Haha, it’s nothing, hahaha it’s just talking about the Dao, um, talking about the Dao, one person is missing!”

When she first walked into this world, she felt that cultivating immortals was too boring, and she had no entertainment measures, so after class, she secretly pulled a few little sisters to play mahjong.

At first they wanted to maintain the image of fairies, and refused to play the game of these folks.

Little Lingsu Peak Master: “This is not in line with the precepts of Gushan ancestors.”

Little Zhuoyu Peak Master: “Junior Sister, we cultivators should be pure-hearted and low-spirited, and pursue the great path with all our heart.”

Little Huangzhong Peak Master: “Vulgar thing.”

Later——

“Junior sister, come on, three missing one!”

Therefore, every time Huai Bai sees her three senior sisters, she feels a little guilty in her heart, but she feels even more guilty to the head brother, because in order to let the little sisters better understand what Fight the Landlord is, she changed the name to Fight the Dao Senior.

(T/N: Fight the Landlord is a popular Chinese card game)

Every time the morning meeting was over, the few people greeted each other in front of the senior brother: “Do you want to Fight the Dao Senior today?”

“Fight, I just happen to have nothing to do.”

Or answer: “If you don’t fight, you don’t fight, today a hall master of Mo Sect asked me to see the moon.”

Pei Yu listened to Huai Bai’s explanation and admired her greatly, “Master is so diligent, and she is really a role model for my generation.”

No wonder Master has become much stronger in this life.

Huai Bai laughed a few times, and made up her mind silently to maintain the image of a model monk in front of her apprentice. She put the paper crane in her hand and said, “Senior Sister, my apprentice is by the side.”

There was rustling over there for a while, “Junior Sister, are you accepting apprentices again?”

“Did you pick it up on the road or fished it in the sea this time? Or did you cheat it with sugar from which family?”

Huangzhong Peak Master relied on saying hello: “Apprentice, hello.”

Pei Yu clenched Huai Bai’s sleeves tightly, her phoenix eyes hung down aggrievedly, her eyes sparkling like blue waves, “Master, you accept your apprentice like that……”

It turned out that she was just an apprentice on the road.

Huai Bai hurriedly coaxed the child, “My child, I won’t accept apprentices anymore. You will be Master’s palm and heart in the future.”

Lingsu Peak Master unceremoniously punctured: “Apprentice, don’t believe her. Last time she kidnapped your second elder sister, she said the same. Originally the young master of Wangyue City, where can’t she go? But she ran over to have a good meal, deceiving, talking about her being a master’s little princess, only eat spirit pills and not endure hardships. Also talking about thousands of immortal roads, friendship is the first, careless investment in teachers, two lines of tears of relatives. She said so much and deceived a good girl to guard Shouxian Peak.”

(T/N: the latter part of the previous paragraph is just a long winded way of saying that friendship is most important, and that they’ll be like family instead of just a teacher and student relationship)

Huai Bai quickly interrupted, “Hey, senior sister, don’t talk about it, how can you say that this kind of mutual affection is a lie?”

Mutual affection?

Pei Yu thought quite angrily, she was already her Daoist companion, and she wanted to make love with others.

No, no, she is innocent with her teacher……

After joking all the way, they came to a small town at the foot of Gushan. Because the Gushan Trial is about to begin, the town of Caiqi is densely packed and crowded at this moment. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, business travelers are taking advantage of this rare opportunity to shout in the streets one after another.

“I have unique information about the Gushan Trial here. I’ve read it for sure. It only costs ten taels of silver!”

“Come and take a look, the elixir cultivated by Lingsu Peak Master herself, eat one for ten years of life extension, two for longevity, and three for immortality! Large quantity, cheap sale!”

Even if it is favored by the peak master, people who have not passed the entry trial are still not allowed to enter Gushan. Therefore, Huai Bai took Pei Yu to a quiet small courtyard with a few flowers and trees, which was quite interesting. “Cub, you live here first, and I will return after placing those bamboo rats.”

Pei Yu nodded.

After taking her to familiarize herself with the room, setting up food and clothing, etc., Huai Bai hurriedly opened the door and walked out.

The paper crane is sounding——”Junior Sister, are you coming? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

Huai Bai said hurriedly: “I am coming! Don’t start yet!”

Zhen’s thoughts:

Wow this was a pain in the ass to translate. It really doesn’t help that some parts are just incomprehensible in the original MTL. Anyways though, we finally get to see some of the daily activities of people at Gushan. They’re pretty good people, which is a bit surprisingly since most other xianxia novels I’ve read make the sect the MC belongs to all be assholes.

Also yeah, surprise! Pei Yu’s other self was Huai Bai’s lover in this life. She’s having a bit of trouble digesting that fact LOL.
