Chapter 140: Shi Yue
'This woman is dangerous, but... She's too beautiful. Really, women are dangerous in every sense of the word.' Tang Yin thought as he saw her laughing like that and then looked at the sky and the purple moon was still there in the distance; besides, everything was a bit dark, but the light emitted by that moon was enough to illuminate everything.
Still, this didn't make sense.
So, he lowered his gaze and looked at her again.
"May I ask another question?" He said, and she stopped laughing shortly after and looked at him.
"Boy, you are asking a lot of questions and you haven't answered mine, is it so bad to become my disciple? I am strong and believe me I have a lot to teach you or, at the very least, I have a lot to give you." She replied, but after a moment of him not answering, she sighed and nodded at his previous question.
Tang Yin then smiled.
"I understand very well how strong you are. Even more so, with a domain like you have. You are a bearer of the Eternal Night, correct?" He asked.
The woman in front of him then stopped smiling and stared at him for a moment.
Soon after, she disappeared from her place and in an instant appeared behind Tang Yin.
"It's not good to know too many things, you know that?" She spoke in his ear.
Although Tang Yin was surprised, he still smiled reassuringly.
"Knowing a lot is better than knowing nothing, you should know that better than me." He replied confidently. She looked at him for a full minute and sighed, then turned around, putting her back to Tang Yin's back.
He then turned around to look at her, and she nodded.
"That's right, I didn't think anyone would recognize my dominance, let alone think a young boy of barely 20 could do it." She spoke.
'I knew it. She's really dangerous...' Tang Yin thought as soon as she heard this.
"That means your spiritual weapon is your crown of roses, right?" he asked, and she, though more surprised, didn't answer.
"Little boy, no more questions. I'm not in a good mood now, so you don't need to answer my previous question, you will when you become an inner disciple." She replied, and after dropping something, she disappeared.
Just at that moment, the night and the purple moon also disappeared.
It was daytime again as before he was attacked.
Tang Yin then frowned, picked up what she had thrown, and went to sit down.
'Shi Yue...' Tang Yin thought as he read this woman's name written on the token she had dropped.
'Meiyu didn't tell me about her, is it possible that I don't know her? She seems to be very dangerous, but...' Tang Yin smiled upwards.
'Not bad, dangerous and beautiful women, who are willing to protect are also adorable.' Tang Yin thought and stopped thinking about nonsense. He decided to look at the system to see what new things he had.
He was eager to know what that Quest Table was.
...
Once Shi Yue left Tang Yin's courtyard, she looked at him from above standing a little away from him, and frowned, but then smiled.
'Tsk, this little boy is a bit cunning and smart. Also, he knows a lot of things, as expected of a person from 'that' family. This will be interesting.' She thought, and after a while, she averted her gaze and looked off into the distance.
A cold smile formed on her face at that moment.
A man was running on the rooftops and soon entered a hotel room, so Shi Yue quickly followed him and entered this room unnoticed by those who were there.
"Madam, I'm sorry, I failed the mission. Protecting that guy is a very powerful Spiritual Supreme. I can't do anything." Said the man as he bowed to a beautiful woman who was sitting in an armchair reading a book.
She looked up and looked at him.
"It's okay." She replied calmly and continued reading the book for a few minutes without paying attention to whoever was in the room. After a few minutes, she closed it and looked straight ahead.
"It's not polite to walk into someone's room and not greet them." She said, startling everyone present.
'Is there anyone who walked into the room and didn't greet the lady? Who could dare to do that?' they thought.
But just then, they heard a soft chuckle, and soon, a beautiful woman came into view on one side of the window.
Her beauty was even superior to the beauty of the woman sitting there, which stunned everyone here.
But they were even more stunned by the fact that she was able to sneak inside the room when there were 4 Spiritual Supremes who did not notice her!
'Shit, what a dangerous woman.' They thought, and the man, who was still kneeling, panicked as soon as he saw her.
"It's she!" He said in fright as he pulled back.
He had felt the aura before, and he was sure. She was the one protecting the person he was supposed to assassinate.
Just then, the four spiritual Supremes behind the beautiful seated woman stepped in front of her to protect her.
"Who are you? How dare you barge into this room at your whim!?" one of them shouted as he summoned his spiritual weapon but was soon pushed away by the seated woman.
"Get out of the way." She said, startling them, but they did exactly as she said.
Shi Yue paid no attention to this. She simply looked at the woman sitting there in front of her.
"Madam, I think your impoliteness is superior to mine, how are we going to settle this?" Shi Yue asked as she stared at her with a smile.
And the woman sitting there looked back at her.
"Have you seen me commit any rudeness?" she asked.
"Does it seem little to you to come to a foreign city and send to killer one of the members of my sect?" she asked.
"Did you see me sending someone there?" the seated woman asked again, revealing nothing on her face.
"No, I don't think I saw you. But... I did see one of your subordinates." Shi Yue said, and then waved her hand towards the kneeling man and made a red flower come out of his body with a small trailing array.
This was visible to everyone, and the Supreme Spirituals frowned a little, but no one said anything.
The seated woman simply shrugged her shoulders and held up her finger.
A small flash came out of it and destroyed the flower in midair, causing Shi Yue to be left with her hand outstretched for a moment.
"A mistake of a subordinate is a mistake of her master. You can do whatever you want to him as an apology for his stupidity and I will give you some treasure as compensation." She replied indifferently. Startling the kneeling man, who was ignored by everyone.
Shi Yue stared at her at that moment.
"So, you are saying that it was the subordinate's decision and has nothing to do with the master, but that, to make up for his mistake, you will give a treasure to pay for the life of one of my disciples, huh." Shi Yue said coldly.
And the woman in front of her shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't think his life will cost more than a small pill." She replied.
Shi Yue then smiled and nodded.
