Chapter 24: The Handwriting… Is too Extraordinary

Mrs. Bai Yu was the lady in charge.

    Mrs. Bai Yu’s surname was Bai Yu, and her name was Fengyue. The disciples had to respect her as Fenghua Elder because of her accomplishments in slaughtering demons.

    But Bai Yuming directly called Mrs. Bai Yu’s four characters name, instantly raising his status. No matter what other people think, Bai Yuming’s name of the Yuede Elder has taken place.

    Bai Yuming first said that he had already accepted a disciple to become his inner disciple, also to put an end to these two disciple’s delusions, then said that he had cultivated great kindness in the previous life to bear the good fruits of this life. This is to say, conversely, on how many sins the two disciples have done in their previous lives, so that they can’t even find a master in this life.

    Boasting that the human race is superior, but he’s not even as good as the rabbit demon Bai Yuming.

    Mo Shulin almost didn’t recognize Bai Yuming when he scrutinize the two disciples with the identity of a demon cultivator.

    Regardless of whether the two disciples understood or not, they had to pretend to be incomprehensible because of Bai Yuming’s identity, and said with a pleased smile that Bai Yuming’s words were very right.

    Seeing them being humble and kneeling, Mo Shulin couldn’t help but recall the days when Bai Yuming was so angry that he could only swallow his voice.

    Sure enough, watching others deflate always made him happy.

    Because of this matter, Bai Yuming didn’t hand in any task, and took Mo Shulin to the private room with a few polite words to pick some more tasks. As an elder, Bai Yuming can accept more tasks. Even if the last task haven’t got handed in, he can still continue to accept new tasks this time.

    “The two are really annoying.” Bai Yuming was annoyed when he thought that something he had worked so hard for a month didn’t got replaced with a spirit stone.

    But the tasks with special marking can only enter the private room to find the person in charge for inspection. On one side Bai Yuming can’t say that he wanted to leave, and on the other end he’ll check the tasks with the disciple at the next table.

This is to prevent from slapping himself on the face. He’ll just blame himself for not being a capable elder, and cannot take on more heavier tasks.

    “Master, can you tell me?” Mo Shulin asked tentatively.

    He always thought that Bai Yuming was hiding in the mountains, so he wouldn’t understand the honey-bellied swords.

    “What is there for me to tell. One praised me as a famous teacher and said that I’m a good master. The other said that he has a fate with you, but I think that you don’t have a fate him, since he only wanted to go inside the peak.” Bai Yuming felt bored as he said.

    “If you outright said no, you’re just messing around. If you politely declined, you’ll become the scheming one.”

    “If you continue pretending to be magnanimous, you’ll have to look after them in order to maintain your face. If they shows some other means, maybe other masters wouldn’t notice, and accepted them.”

    Mo Shulin was surprised when he heard it, but Bai Yuming could see it clearly.

    “I emphasize the inner disciple, so that they shouldn’t expect a way out from me.” Bai Yuming didn’t mean to discriminate against outer disciples. It’s just that some disciples have great ambitions, and this kind of person has to be with those same-hearted masters.

    He’s not suitable.

    “Master won’t accept anymore disciples in the future?” Mo Shulin looked forward to it.

    “Not necessarily.” Bai Yuming’s answer made Mo Shulin uncomfortable, then he heard Bai Yuming’s words again, “But small temple can’t accommodate big Buddha, and my poor place won’t accept those competitive disciples.”

    Mo Shulin felt that he was scolded by Bai Yuming. This means that he and Bai Yuming, who’s lazy and doesn’t like to save money, aren’t the same kind of people.

    But this is okay.

    “Master, I still don’t understand.” Mo Shulin looked at Bai Yuming and nodded before continuing, “Since you can see the two disciples ambitions, can you see the Elder Shangguan’s ambitions?”

    Seeing Bai Yuming’s face wrinkled slightly Mo Shulin hurriedly explained, “I didn’t mean to say bad things about the Elder Shangguan. I just think that the elder Shangguan is a bit too enthusiastic.”

    Bai Yuming’s position can stand the enthusiasm of Shangguan Zhuqing. No matter how well others pretend, they would always discriminate against demon cultivators. But Shangguan Zhuqing didn’t have contempt in his eyes, which was very abnormal.

    “Naturally.” Bai Yuming took a sip of tea, lowered his head to cover the emotions in his eyes.

    Shangguan Zhuqing is too friendly, but he’s not the one who would try to figure out his stuff.

    He could feel that Shangguan Zhuqing was seeing another person through him. That person may be very important to Shangguan Zhuqing. But the person is no longer there, so Shangguan Zhuqing will put his feelings for that person on him. Love for a person extends even to the crows on his roof, treating him a bit better.

    Bai Yuming can even feel that it’s a familial type of relationship, a little more care than friendship, and a little more space than love. That person must be a rank lower than Shangguan Zhuqing, probably a younger brother, so Shangguan Zhuqing reacted so strongly when he heard him called brother Shangguan.

    But the Shangguan family has many heirs, who knows which younger brother it is. Bai Yuming didn’t have any detailed ideas.

    It’s just that he can’t say these words. For one, these thoughts are based on Bai Yuming’s guess, and for the other, this illusory feeling is like a mirage, which will dissipate someday.

    Bai Yuming doesn’t owe Shangguan Zhuqing anything, everyone trades fairly. Making sure that Shangguan Zhuqing won’t occupy his mind.

    Mo Shulin waited a long time for an answer, until later, realized that Bai Yuming didn’t want to talk anymore, so he didn’t ask any longer, continue to honestly chose a task.

    If Bai Yuming can live to the Mahayana period, even if he’s not scheming, at least he should know on how to avoid disadvantages, therefore he underestimates Bai Yuming.

    After picking up the task, he went out and ran into Ye Qingling who was walking in a hurry.

    Ye Qingling saw Bai Yuming who had walked out of the private room, and immediately bowed, said, “Elder Bai, is the matter finished? I’m really sorry, I was busy, I’ll immediately send it to you.”

    Bai Yuming wanted to say that he was already busy, but he thought about the items in the storage bag that haven’t been replaced with spirit stones.

    He euphemistically said: “Almost. The outer disciple these days are too enthusiastic, I can’t stand it anymore. Are there any disciples who are not so enthusiastic to help me inspect these task items?” Ye Qingling’s expression remained unchanged, but he could understand what Bai Yuming said.

    Enthusiasm mostly involves interests, and Bai Yuming said that because there are disciples who want to climb the relationship between him. 

In other words, it’s actually called having a relationship with others. Being a person in this world, having multiple contacts equally means having multiple paths, and everyone would be satisfied to make good connections. However, Bai Yuming is withdrawn and doesn’t like to communicate with strangers, so other people’s enthusiasm becomes a burden.

    “It’s a coincidence. I was in charge of this item before. I’ll personally inspect the goods for Elder Bai. I don’t know if Elder Bai is willing.” Ye Qingling smiled and invited Bai Yuming back to the room.

    “Thank you.” Bai Yuming felt that Ye Qingling was really good at life.

    He knew that Ye Qingling was kind, but furthermore Ye Qingling understands on how to advance and retreat. That’s why he doesn’t dislike making friends with him.

    Back to the private room.

    Bai Yuming took out the things and explained, “These stacks are heart-cleansing talismans.”

    Ye Qingling felt that Elder Bai was quite enthusiastic, actually explained it to him. He also often inspects elder’s goods, and they usually placed the things away without no words, like an old uncle.

    Mo Shulin glanced at Ye Qingling who picked the ugliest one, pursed his lips, hurriedly suppressed his smile, trying not to blink, wanting to see what Ye Qingling’s expression when he opened it.

    Ye Qingling saw Mo Shulin’s somewhat broken expression, a little confused, but didn’t think much.

    Feeling the spiritual energy of the talismans in his hand, Ye Qingling’s heart was shocked and couldn’t help but praise, “The spiritual energy is pure and strong, it’s a good thing.”

    “But the handwriting…” Ye Qingling opened and saw the ghost-like characters, suddenly got stuck. Because of Bai Yuming’s gaze, he forced out two words, “too extraordinary.”

Honey-bellied swords, or honeyed words a sword in the belly is a metaphor of someone who’s talking nicely but is sinister in heart.

Love for a person extends even to the crows on his roof, means that if you love someone, you’ll also love the people and things that relates to them as well.

Yikes, if Shangguan Zhuqing actually treats Yuming as his already deceased younger brother then… I’d kinda feel bad ngl. I’m really sorry for saying that you have an old man vibes (；^ω^）
