Wei Taizhen said, “My name is Wei Taizhen, and I come from Beiju Luzhou.”
This “scholar” dressed in a pink Daoist robe was truly peculiar.
Liu Chicheng wore a surprised expression, his eyes filled with pity. He said softly, “Wei-meimei is truly remarkable, traveling all the way from such a distant place. It must have been arduous. This trip to Xielong Stone must be fruitful. The dragon pearls on this mountain are of excellent quality, perfect as embellishments for the Dragon Daughter’s immortal attire, the Xiangshui skirt. When Wei-meimei wears it, it will truly be a match made in heaven. If you were to refine a ‘Pearl of the Palm’ bracelet as well, wouldn’t Wei-meimei be mistaken for a celestial maiden descended from the heavens?”
Wei Taizhen was neither annoyed nor angry, but simply said, “Mr. Liu, if you continue like this, my master will be displeased.”
Liu Chicheng pointed to the ground, the two still several paces apart, and smiled, “My feelings for Wei-meimei are proper and respectful. That young lady won’t be angry.”
Wei Taizhen said, “I have already been given away by my master as a maidservant. Please stop speaking nonsense. Besides, whether my master will be angry or not is not for you to decide.”
Liu Chicheng raised his sleeve, covering his mouth as he chuckled, “Wei-meimei is truly adorable.”
Wei Taizhen said, “If you continue like this, I will be impolite.”
Liu Chicheng lowered his sleeve, smiling as he said, “Why would Wei-meimei be impolite with Liu-gege?”
Chai Bofu squatted beside the fisherman immortal, feeling utterly bored. He thought that Liu Chicheng’s nature was truly hard to change. Previously, on the northern journey in Bao Ping Continent, whenever he saw a beautiful woman, whether a female cultivator from the mountains or a common woman from the marketplace, he would always go up to her and make playful remarks. The key point was that Liu Chicheng, this lecher, only talked and never acted. What exactly was he trying to achieve?
At the summit of Xielong Stone, Gu Can finally spoke, smiling, “Long time no see.”
Li Liu nodded, “Not bad.”
Gu Can nodded and couldn’t help but laugh.
Because Gu Can remembered some things from his childhood.
In those days, besides being a follower of Chen Pingan and Liu Xianyang, he also liked to wander around by himself. When he encountered ruffians who were older and stronger, he could only run far away, then hurl a few insults. But at the dilapidated house on the far west side of town, there was a peer named Li Huai. Li Huai was one of the few pitiful worms Gu Can could bully back then. Li Huai couldn’t out-curse him, and he was no match for him in a fight. Moreover, Li Huai had one good point: he didn’t like to tell his family about it. So, Gu Can would go over there to play from time to time. But one time, on a snowy day, when no one was around, as he was stuffing a snowball down Li Huai’s collar, Li Huai’s elder sister caught him. As a result, Gu Can was picked up by that seemingly weak Li Liu, by one leg, head towards the ground, and used as a broom, sweeping the snow clean from in front of her house, before she casually tossed Gu Can to the ground. Gu Can, dizzy, got up and ran far away. Afterwards, he cursed at Li Liu, saying he would call Chen Pingan to bully her. A little girl, he would have Chen Pingan ride on her and beat her to death, to see who would dare marry her in the future…
Gu Can asked, “I heard you went to Beiju Luzhou?”
Li Liu hummed in affirmation. She looked towards Liu Chicheng at the foot of Xielong Stone Mountain.
Gu Can spoke using heart-mind speech, “He is the White Emperor City Lord’s youngest martial brother. Be careful. Although Liu Chicheng is foul-mouthed, he won’t really do anything.”
Li Liu glanced at Gu Can, “You have changed quite a bit.”
