Chapter 98: You Don’t Have The Ability!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

?!

As a Jianghu person, how could Luo Ning not understand such dirty words? Her face immediately flushed red. “Nonsense. She and I are like sisters. 1 became the cult mistress to help her cover her identity… I’ve never scissored… Bah! You’re simply…”

She raised his sword, wanting to cut down Ye Jingtang.

Ye Jingtang hurriedly raised his hands. “Alright, alright. Heroine Luo, even if you’ve polished mirrors before, I don’t mind… Hey, wait!”

Luo Ning realized that after explaining everything to this little thief, he started to get carried away. Unable to take it anymore, she placed her sword on his shoulder. “Why don’t you try saying those things again?”

Ye Jingtang’s expression became serious as he said gently, “In that case, since you’re single and unmarried, and the Pacifying Heaven Cult Master won’t treat me like that because of our affairs…”

“There’s nothing between us!”

Ye Jingtang moved the sword away from his neck and said helplessly, “Then, Heroine Luo, do you want me to take responsibility, or should 1 pretend that nothing has happened?”

Luo Ning gritted her teeth. “I haven’t thought about it yet.”

Ye Jingtang wasn’t in a hurry. “Alright, then, Heroine Luo, take your time to consider. We’ll talk about it after you’ve thought it through.”

Luo Nin saw that Ye Jingtang was behaving himself, so her cold expression softened slightly. She put away her sword and thought for a moment before saying, “1 am the wife of the cult master of the Pacifying Heaven Cult. Even if Baijin and 1 are a fake couple, I’m still a leader of the Pacifying Heaven Cult and a rebel. If… if you want me to forgive your previous actions, you have to join the Pacifying Heaven Cult first!”

Ye Jingtang hesitated. “Uh…”

“Since you can enter the Red Flower Pavilion, why can’t you help the Pacifying Heaven Cult? 1 even helped the Red Flower Pavilion out today. What benefits has the Red Flower Pavilion given you?”

“It’s not an issue with the Red Flower Pavilion…” Ye Jingtang thought of Dumdum, whom he had seen naked, and suddenly realized that he seemed to be riding on three ships…

But he couldn’t afford to offend even one ship. If he abandoned one ship, he might lose his third leg…

Seeing Ye Jingtang hesitate, Luo Ning’s eyes turned slightly cold. “Then, what’s the issue?”

Ye Jingtang explained calmly, “Well… 1 work for the Black Office, and the Prince of Jing appreciates me very much…”

?

Luo Ning’s eyes immediately became vigilant. “You little thief, are you really clinging to the princess? I’ve already warned you…”

“Calm down. The thing is, the Blood Bodhi tried to assassinate the Prince of Jing, and I was right in front of her, so I naturally had to protect her. I was injured while protecting her, so the Prince of Jing moved me back to her estate and asked me to patrol the palace. Then somehow, the Prince of Jing and I…”

?!

Luo Ning’s face was full of disbelief. She was stunned for a long time before she reacted. “You… How many days has it been? You two have already…”

“No, no. We haven’t reached that stage yet.”

“You…” Luo stared at Ye Jingtang with glistening tears and bitterness. She wanted to raise her sword and stab him, but under her grievances, she didn’t want to look at this little thief. She turned her head and said coldly, “The Pacifying Heaven Cult and the Red Flower Pavilion can still negotiate, but the cult is irreconcilable with the Imperial Court. At this point, you can choose for yourself. Do you want the princess, or do you want me to forgive you?”

Faced with this question of choosing one out of two, Ye Jingtang spread his hands helplessly. “Do I have a choice?”

?!

Luo Ning turned around and looked at Ye Jingtang in disbelief. “You…! That’s right. The princess is so powerful that you can’t afford to offend her. You’re going to choose the princess, right? Okay… okay…”

As she spoke, she got up with tears in her eyes and wanted to leave.

Ye Jingtang hurriedly grabbed Luo Ning. “That’s not what I mean. Once I disappear, what will happen to my relatives and friends in the capital? The situation is like this. I can’t run away. Why don’t you give me an idea?”

Luo Ning’s eyes were red, and her expression was cold. “You didn’t keep your word and interacted with the princess. Now that things have come to this, you can’t leave the princess. Other than you and me not contacting each other again, what else can we do?”

Ye Jingtang said calmly, “I’ve always remembered our promise. That time was really an accident. The princess asked me if I had someone 1 loved, and I answered firmly that I did and said a wife who shared her husband’s hard lot must never be cast aside…”

“I’m the one casting you aside!”

“Okay, okay. You’re casting me aside.”

“The princess knows that you’re in love with someone. What did she say?”

“She didn’t say anything. Mm… she’s especially good to me.”

Luo Ning understood what he meant. She nodded slightly and stood up with tears in her eyes. “I understand. I’ll make way, okay? I don’t want a little thief like you to take responsibility…”

Ye Jingtang raised his hands and pressed down on Heroine Luo’s shoulders. “Stop throwing a tantrum. Let’s talk about the matter. Let’s think about how to resolve this matter, okay?”

“How else do you want to resolve this? Do you still want to trick me and the princess back home?”

“Well…”

Luo Ning looked at Ye Jingtang’s expression and understood the meaning. Her eyes widened. “How… how can you be so shameless? Even if I lose my mind and ask you to be responsible for me, how will I get along with the princess in the future? I’m a rebel. If my identity is discovered, my head will definitely hang outside the Black Office. What will you do then?”

Ye Jingtang’s expression was serious, and he was full of manliness. “Heroine Luo, before you lose a strand of hair, 1 will definitely lose my head first, okay?” “Then, what if 1 kill the princess?”

Ye Jingtang shook his head decisively. “You don’t have the ability.”

?!

Luo Ning almost fainted from anger. She raised her sword and held it in for a long time before gritting her teeth and saying, “How am 1 not capable? When you’re being intimate with the princess, I’ll come over too. Then I’ll strike when you’re not prepared…”

Ye Jingtang raised his hands. “Don’t joke around. Give me time to think of a solution, okay?”

“What can you do?”

“I heard that you were coming and learned about the Pacifying Heaven Cult…”

“You heard that the Moon Goddess was coming, right? Pervert!”

“Okay, I’m a pervert. The Pacifying Heaven Cult is a lone minister of the previous dynasty. They’ve insisted on defending the South Firmament Mountains to the death and refuse to surrender. The Imperial Court has even tried to offer amnesty and enlistment, but it didn’t succeed. Why don’t I think of a way to lobby and facilitate the amnesty offering…”

Actually, Luo Ning had long seen that Great Wei was at its peak and had already won the hearts of the people. It was no different from a fantasy for the Pacifying Heaven Cult Master to restore Great Yan, which had been destroyed for sixty years.

But the Pacifying Heaven Cult was already dominating Jianghu and was beyond the reach of the Imperial Court. Xue Baijin was perfectly fine as the ‘Empress of Jianghu’, but she came to bow down to the Imperial Court. She might even be given a cup of poisonous wine. Would Xue Baijin accept that?

“It’s impossible for the Pacifying Heaven Cult to accept the amnesty. Why don’t you persuade the Imperial Court to surrender to the Pacifying Heaven Cult? The Pacifying Heaven Cult Master is a minister of Great Yan, and Great Wei is the rebel!”

Ye Jingtang was speechless. He spread his hands and said, “I’ll try my best, okay? Whether it’s the South Firmament Mountains offering amnesty to the twelve provinces of Great Wei or the Pacifying Heaven Cult being offered amnesty, the two forces will turn into one. I’ll choose whichever one has the chance of succeeding, okay?”

Luo Ning blinked. She felt that she was forcing this little thief into a corner, so she didn’t say anything else. “You’d better handle the matter properly. If the Imperial Court attacks the South Firmament Mountains one day, I will be the first to rush to your house and kill the princess.”

Ye Jingtang was confused by the mess. He turned to look at the river and didn’t say anything else.

The riverside fell silent, leaving only the quiet moonlight and the man and woman at the bow of the boat.

Luo Ning looked at the vast Clear River and wanted to get up and leave, but she found it difficult to say anything. After thinking for a moment, she untied the anchor rope at the bow and let the boat float downstream. “You smashed the Zhou family’s face today. It’s impossible for the Zhou family to settle the matter peacefully. I’ll send you to the port. Leave early to avoid anything going wrong.”

“What about you?”

“I… I have to go to the capital to save Qiu Tianhe. I’ll only set off tomorrow, and 1’11 take a different route from you.”

Ye Jingtang nodded slightly and tilted his head to look at the cold side profile beside him. He couldn’t find a topic to ease the atmosphere for the time being, so he put his hands together, interlocked his fingers, and put them against his mouth. Then…

“Wooo— Wooo “
