Chapter 874: Preparing to Leave the Mountain

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Senior Sister, this guy is dumb. They actually asked a dumb guy to deliver the letter! Ning Qing immediately jumped up from her chair to complain when she saw Li Yuanzhu coming in.

Im afraid a normal person will become mute when meeting you! This was all Li Yuanzhu could say.

Normal people tended to talk less as they got older. For Ning Qing, it was just the opposite.

As a matter of fact, Ning Qing was more lovable when she was young.

May I know, are you Priestess Li Yuanzhu? Shi Jingtian asked. He had confirmed her identity with one look as she looked exactly like what the rumors had described.

He couldnt help thinking, If all the women in the world were like her, it would be good! At least it wouldnt be so vexing.

Yes, I am. Please be seated. Master, how may I address you? Her smile made Shi Jingtian relax.

This was the first time he felt so comfortable facing a woman.

Usually, it was like facing a tiger.

Since he was talented and not bad looking, many women gathered around him every day, which was unbearable.

Im Shi Jingtian. Im not worthy of being addressed as master. Shi Jingtian cupped his hands in salute and then presented the letter, saying, This is the letter.

So you are Master Shi. You are young, well cultivated, and very talented. Li Yuanzhu praised him.

Shi Jingtian was shocked that she could sense his background when he didnt divulge anything. However, this was only to be expected as even his teacher was no match for the gorgeous woman in front of him.

Ning Qing ran forward to snatch the letter and gave it to Li Yuanzhu.

Li Yuanzhu said with a smile, Who asked you to send this letter? How is he related to you?

Its His Highness, Zhao Prince Consort! Shi Jingtian answered frankly. Ren Baqian had told him before that there was no need to hide the fact that Li Fu was in Lan City. Furthermore, Lan City was stated as the meeting place in the letter. People would be suspicious if this wasnt openly known.

So, its Zhao Prince Consort of Dayao. Li Yuanzhu pondered and sounded surprised.

Oh, is it that gigolo? Ning Qing responded.

Ning Qing! Li Yuanzhus face changed, and Ning Qing was frightened.

She quickly added, I was spouting nonsensejust ignore me.

Why is that elder in Dayao? Whats he doing there? Li Yuanzhu asked.

I do not know. You will probably find out after reading the letter, Shi Jingtian said.

Li Yuanzhu opened the letter and frowned after browsing it as the contents were strange.

Foreign races? Stage a comeback? Very powerful? What did it mean?

The writing is ugly! Ning Qing exclaimed after seeing the letter from behind.

Li Yuanzhu didnt scold her this time. She cared about the meaning of the words, not whether the writing was beautiful or ugly. Every word was painted as a mountain, and the number of words was the same as the number of mountains.

Theres also the smell of a woman! Ning Qing sniffed and commented.

This letter was written by the empress.

The words written by such an expert were full of spirit. Even if Ren Baqian were to forge it, an expert could see that it wasnt authentic.

After the empress stated this point, Ren Baqian immediately thought of getting the empress to write it.

It would be fun to trick that woman and help Ren Baqian at the same time.

Although the empress wasnt Li Fu, she was the fourth most powerful expert in the world and also a ruler. If the words were written with spirit and if the reader hadnt previously seen the handwriting of the two people, the reader might think that it was written by the worlds number one expert.

It consisted of only dozens of words, but Li Yuanzhu spent the time it took to drink a cup of tea before she put down the letter and exclaimed, Nice handwriting!

Ning Qing was already bewildered by the contents of the letter and widened her eyes upon hearing this.

Nice handwriting? she asked.

I have already told you to cultivate more. Your level is too low, and you will not understand this. Li Yuanzhu shook her head.

Then, she asked, Does Master Shi know the meaning of the contents of the letter?

No.

Is that person in Lan City? Can you tell me about his situation now? Li Yuanzhu asked.

She felt that the contents of the letter were strange, but she was reminded of what she accidentally heard from Xu Gongsou.

At that time, Xu Gongsou didnt say it clearly. In fact, he also didnt really understand, but he said that the history of the human race included a huge secret.

When Li Yuanzhu saw this letter, the first thing she wanted to confirm was whether this letter was written by Li Fu. Only two people in this world could have written it, Li Fu and Qi Zixiao.

The latter was disdainful toward doing such a thing.

In that case, it should be Li Fu.

No matter what, if she wanted to understand the situation, she had to make a trip to the south.

However, she still wanted to find out the condition of Li Fu first.

Shi Jingtian hesitated and said, I do not know much!

Just tell me what you know. The worlds number one expert has disappeared for a long time, so Im curious, Li Yuanzhu said.

He has a nickname, the Testicle Kicking Maniac!

What? What do you mean? Li Yuanzhu didnt get it.

Shi Jingtian explained, Its said that many people challenged him after he came to Lan City, and he kicked every challenger with one kick to the crotch. This was how he got the nickname.

Wow! Ning Qing gasped.

Li Yuanzhus expression became frosty

Shi Jingtian saw their reaction and rejoiced because he had suffered similar disillusionment before.

Next, he cheerfully added, There are rumors that he colluded with others to sell iron crotch guards and that he would kick people more lightly if they bought these from him.

Is this the worlds number one expert? Are you joking? Ning Qings eyes almost popped out. Senior Sister, I dont think this is real.

Ning Qing found it hard to believe that the top expert in the world could behave this way.

Li Yuanzhu rubbed her forehead and said with mixed feelings, According to the rumors about his character, it isnt impossible

This is what I know, Shi Jingtian said happily.

Is Master Shi from the Yun Nation or Tianjing Basin? Li Yuanzhu asked.

Tianjing Basin, Lingshan Sect.

Oh, you are an elite disciple of Lingshan Sect. Li Yuanzhu nodded. Are you working for the Dayao imperial court?

Yes! Im a baihu of the Rearguard Commandery and was tasked with delivering this letter, Shi Jingtian said truthfully.

Fine. Go and take a rest. I will consider this and then give you a reply, Li Yuanzhu said.

After Shi Jingtian had left, Ning Qing voiced out her suspicion and asked, Is this really written by Li Fu? Whats the meaning of this letter? What foreign races? Senior Sister, do you know?

Im not sure, but since its written by the worlds number one expert, the contents should be real. Anyway, I need to make a trip!

I want to go too! Ning Qing jumped up with joy and said hastily, Im going to pack now. Its boring in the mountain, and I can finally go out!

You Li Yuanzhu said resignedly.

If anything happens, I can help to send a letter or do something similar. Furthermore, you are the third most powerful expert in the world and should have some followers when you go out. Otherwise, you will lower your prestige. Although you do not mind, you shouldnt let others look down on you. With me around, you will have someone to talk to on the road. Ning Qing kept chattering.

Li Yuanzhu laughed bitterly. With Ning Qings talent, she would have become an Earth Wheel expert before the age of 20 if she had been willing to put in the effort.

However, with her playful temperament, she couldnt concentrate and was only a Man Wheel expert at the moment.

By bringing her along to see the world, it might hone her character.

Since Li Fu sent this letter, other masters would most likely have also received letters. This was an opportunity for her to see the world.
