The
wood room at which Song Ning had stayed before was in the third-ring area. He
walked out from the third-ring area and found that the city was much more
bustling at night.
This
area was brightly lit with happy laughter and voices. Disciples in small groups
were eating, talking or competing in techniques, some were even flirting or
making love secretly in young forests or in their rooms.
That
was….what a cultivation school was all about, but Song Ning had never lived
such a life over the past years.
"Perhaps
I cannot experience it any more. The master treated me so unfairly because I
have half volume of the Magic Taoist
Scripture in my body. If it is extracted one day, I will have no right to
stay in Tianhe City." He smiled bitterly.
At
that time, a disciple in purple saw the ragged Song Ning in white. He frowned,
"Are you Song Ning?"
Song
Ning bowed immediately as he heard someone calling him, "I am Song Ning."
"Are
you qualified to be here? How did you come here?" The disciple in purple
questioned.
"I…"
Song
Ning was about to answer, but the disciple waved his hands disgustedly, "You
are not qualified to be here. Leave fast. If you are caught by the
administrative elder, you would be suffer. Leave fast."
Song
Ning's nose twitched but he had to hold back his tears. He said nothing and
left quickly. As soon as he left, someone said, "He is so unappreciative, Lee
was kind to remind him, but he didn't say a word."
Song
Ning was expelled by the so called Lee just now. He pretended to be generous,
"Alas, well. If he is appreciative enough, he would not be still a disciple in
white. Everyone, ignore him, let's drink."
Hearing
that, Song Ning couldn't help laughing.
He
laughed with bitterness, helplessness and also irony.
He
had lived for sixteen years and remembered things for thirteen years. Thinking
of that, he seemed to live in vain. If he hadn't gone out of Taihe Mountain, he
would never have known the outside world and people. Supposedly this was the real
world and the real cultivation community.
He
used to think that he should be very polite to others while others would
respect him as well. Unexpectedly, as soon as he came here, he was inferior to
others.
When
Song Ning was laughed by others, Leng Yuexiao and Red Maple sat face to face in
Leng Yuexiao's room in the second-ring area of Tianhe City.
Leng
Yuexiao was reflecting on things about Song Ning. She invited her master
through the Sound Transmitting Technique and wanted to talk about her plan with
the master.
Red
Maple looked at her kindly, "Xiao, you invited my here, do you think of
something?"
"Master,
I…have something to beg you." She rallied her courage.
"Don't
say beg. Your father entrusted you to me, which means he trust me, so I will be
responsible for you. Your family is far away from here, I am the closest person
to you here." Red Maple said slowly.
Amongst
people in the school, only Red Maple could hold Leng Yuexiao in the power.
Meanwhile, she was only so kind to Leng Yuexiao.
Leng
Yuexiao took a deep breath with firmness in her eyes, "Master, the Magic Taoist Scripture will be extracted
from Song Ning's body in a month. He would be damaged or lose his life.
However, it was caused by me. It is against my conscience. So I beg you to
allow him to live a life of ease in this month.
