Chapter 1922 1923: Jiang Muxue
At this moment, Sun Wei patted Ling Zhenfei on the side, and Ling Zhenfei opened his eyes, and then he saw a very beautiful face before him, belonging to the girl named Jiang Muxue.
"Hello Mr. Ling, do you have some time?" Jiang Muxue asked.
Before Ling Zhenfei could speak, Sun Wei spoke up next to him.
"He has time, he has time. Nowadays, this kid has nothing more than time."
Ling Zhenfei got up and looked at Jiang Muxue, saying, "Is there something you need?"
Jiang Muxue said, "My master is all right now, he wants to see you."
Ling Zhenfei replied, "If it's to express gratitude, there's no need. I'm not someone who saves people for rewards."
Jiang Muxue heard Ling Zhenfei's somewhat impatient tone, and her expression darkened slightly.
"Don't think that just because you saved my master, you can stand on a pedestal. My master inviting you shows that he respects you."
Ling Zhenfei laughed after listening, "Well, thank your master for holding me in high regard. For your dignity, just go back and tell your master, I am very busy now, so I don't have time to meet with him.
When I do have time, I will certainly visit him, and I remind you to let him rest well during this period, eating one of the elixirs I left every day, alright? That's it, you can go."
Jiang Muxue's face showed a surprised expression, not only Jiang Muxue but Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin were also very surprised; what's going on here?
Faced with such a great beauty's invitation, to even reject it, is quite unbelievable.
Jiang Muxue looked at Ling Zhenfei, opened her mouth a few times but couldn't say anything, seemingly unable to understand what's happening.
"You are truly incomprehensible." After speaking, Jiang Muxue turned and left.
Sun Wei shouted, "Miss, please stay a while, have some tea."
Zhang Chenglin also called out, "Yes, don't mind his clumsy words."
But Jiang Muxue had already walked far away, looking like she wasn't the least bit reluctant.
Ling Zhenfei lay back down to enjoy life again, Sun Wei slapped Ling Zhenfei's shoulder, making Ling Zhenfei jump up again.
Sun Wei said, "Brother, I really admire you, you just rejected her. She surely wanted to thank you."
Zhang Chenglin also bewildered, said, "Yes, going there definitely has benefits with no harm."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "Both of you, brothers, though older than me, your thoughts are still quite narrow."
They moved their chairs a bit closer, and Sun Wei cupped his hands towards Ling Zhenfei, saying, "I'd love to hear more."
Zhang Chenglin also looked at him curiously, wanting to know what Ling Zhenfei meant.
Ling Zhenfei smiled slightly and said, "You all assume I saved him, so naturally he wants to repay me.
But have you ever thought, women can be trouble; if it was anyone else asking me, I might have gone, but not this woman, too beautiful."
Sun Wei said angrily, "You're like a satiated man who doesn't know the hunger of others, calling it trouble because she's a woman, I don't understand why a woman asking you makes you refuse."
Zhang Chenglin looked at Ling Zhenfei and said, "You wouldn't be jealous of women, would you?"
Ling Zhenfei angrily said, "Stop talking nonsense, what about me being a woman? My meaning is clear, women are trouble, and I am a very affectionate person; I warned myself long ago to avoid women to prevent future trouble."
Sun Wei took interest and asked, "Then tell me how it's troublesome?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Well, this is interesting; you see, we're about to go to the Foreign Land Space, right? That space is extremely dangerous, what if you know a woman captured by Demon Hunters, would you go to save her?"
Sun Wei said, "Save her, of course."
Ling Zhenfei nodded, "Yes, saving her sounds easy enough; if your strength is greater or equal to the opponent, that is saving, but if your strength is inferior to a Demon Hunter, then going to save is essentially suicide.
Put it like this: if you knew a woman and had a deep relationship with her, and learned she was captured, even if you realize your strength is inadequate, you would still go to save her, and the likely outcome is both dying together."
Zhang Zhenlin and Sun Wei both fell silent; Sun Wei asked Zhang Zhenlin, "Brother, if I were captured in the Foreign Land Space by a Demon Hunter, would you come to save me?"
Zhang Zhenlin fell silent for a moment then said, "That question made me realize what Brother Ling means, if a brother is captured, we'd strive to rescue him.
But if a woman is captured, we'd impulsively risk everything to save her, increasing the chance of dying greatly."
Ling Zhenfei nodded, putting on a teachable look.
Sun Wei nevertheless laughed, "You've thought too much. Anger-fueled actions for a beauty have existed throughout history; why be so wary? I dislike it; if it were me, no matter how strong the opponent is, it's still just one head on two shoulders, nothing to fear."
Ling Zhenfei knows Sun Wei is a man of sentiment, which is good, but blind emotions aren't; as cultivators, we shouldn't be too rash.
The three lay down again, chatting over tea; because they were at the front of the courtyard, people passed by occasionally, some laughed, others merely glanced.
These three brothers remained unmoved, lying comfortably on their lounge chairs, minding their own business.
Ling Zhenfei asked the two, "Knowing the dangers of the Foreign Land Space, haven't you thought of not going?"
Zhang Zhenlin said, "My family has always been sending me, saying going would broaden my horizons, claiming that space is wonderful in many ways, so I have no choice.
Truthfully, I live well at home, why must I go to the Foreign Land Space? It truly puzzles me."
Sun Wei said, "I wanted to see the Foreign Land Space myself; when I was in Beihai, there weren't many cultivators there, and they all said I was a cultivation genius.
If I just stayed in Beihai, it would spoil my potential, so I must join this journey to the foreign space, promising to bring great rewards.
But to speak frankly, this trip has indeed been rewarding; at least I know what kind of genius I am. Look, someone like Brother Ling is the real genius."
Judging by age, Sun Wei is indeed a few years older than Ling Zhenfei, which is why he said that.
Ling Zhenfei knows both are geniuses, being over thirty and reaching the Dawen Realm at this stage is indeed remarkable, but compared to those in their twenties at the Dawen Realm, there's still a slight gap.
Zhang Zhenlin asked Ling Zhenfei, "Brother Ling, what do you think? You're so young and already at Dawen Peak, a true genius, what's your take on it?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "I never intended to go to the Foreign Land Space, but man plans and heaven laughs; it all happened together, but brothers, I have a heartfelt word for you."
