Chapter 520: Heading to the Dungeon
As they chatted, they had already reached the public square. A lot of disciples had gathered there and a certain group of four men and two girls were standing together. All of the other disciples were clearly very respectful towards these six.
Ning Shu knew from the original host’s memories that these six were rather strong disciples of Heavenly Law Sect. Every single one of them had cultivated to an impressive degree. They were completely different from Wei Liangyue, this second generation wealthy good-for-nothing.
Wei Liangyue knew that his cultivation level wasn’t high, so he didn’t interact with these people much. After all, these people always looked down on Wei Liangyue because their cultivation was higher than his, so only an idiot would keep approaching them to be humiliated.
“These are the people going to the dungeon, so just stay with them,” said Old Man Wei.
When Ning Shu walked over, they simultaneously moved back to keep a distance from her. The female disciples looked towards Ning Shu with unconcealed disdain and wariness.
Ning Shu: …
It seemed that this reputation of being a pervert was going to stay with the original host until he died. That damned brat Wei Liangyue was sure good at courting disaster.
No matter where she went, the female disciples would look at her warily like she was a lecherous wolf. This sensation was seriously weird.
Old Man Wei asked the elder that was taking the disciples to the dungeon to look after his son and the elder nodded.
As they were about to head onto the spirit boat artifact, Old Man Wei pulled Ning Shu and said, “Nothing’s more important than life. If you encounter something that you can’t deal with, just jump onto the lightning wind eagle and ran, got it?”
“Dad, I’ll remember. I’ll definitely return alive,” said Ning Shu earnestly.
However, Old Man Wei’s face was still filled with worry. Even when the spirit boat got very far away, Ning Shu could still see that Old Man Wei was still standing in the public square and looking in their direction.
Wei Liangyue must’ve burned incense for eight lifetimes straight to have obtained a father like this.
The elder said to Ning Shu, “Although I don’t know why your dad allowed someone as weak as you to go to the dungeon, it’ll be a good experience. You need to understand that cultivating is very hard. If you continue being like this and don’t train enough, your dad will end up having to bury you. A white-haired old man will have to end up sending off someone whose hair is still black.”
Ning Shu felt sweat slide down the side of her head. It seriously seemed like everyone disliked Wei Liangyue, but Wei Liangyue completely didn’t mind this and was satisfied just with getting by. He was fine with living like this as long as the days were happy.
“Thank you, Elder. Liangyue knows,” said Ning Shu with a nod.
Ning Shu sat down on a chair in the hold of the ship. There was like a vacuum zone around her. The two female disciples were clearly trying to get as far away from her as possible, as if just getting close to her would make them lose their chastity.
However, the original host had never raped any woman before. There had always been mutual consent. It was just like with that female disciple from before, if they brought themselves to his door, Wei Liangyue would be an idiot to not sleep with them. So he would do so, then give them a little something to help with their cultivation.
It was just a mutually beneficial relationship.
However, she never expected that his reputation was actually this bad. It was probably because Wei Liangyue’s engagement with the goddess of Iridescent Sect, Shi Huidi, made him even more of an eyesore so people had purposefully incited this.
“Bro, I hear that your engagement with Iridescent Sect’s Shi Huidi was broken off.” A man with a very round face came over.
Ning Shu searched through her memories and found out that this person was Liu Qinyang. He was one of the highest ranking disciples of Heavenly Law Sect.
“How did you find out?” How did this news spread? Could it have been Iridescent Sect? That’s not possible. No matter what, Shi Huidi was a girl. Having an engagement broken off wasn’t anything to be proud of.
Liu Qinyang’s eyes widened and he quickly asked, “It’s really been broken off? Did you initiate it?”
Liu Qinyang’s words caught some disciples’ attention. Ning Shu nodded and said, “Yes, my engagement with Shi Huidi has been broken off.”
“Oh wow! Just as I said back then, I knew that Shi Huidi and your engagement was going to fall through. There was no way Iridescent Sect would let such a talented disciple of theirs marry you. It was completely just a scheme to gain benefits.” Liu Qinyang slapped his thigh in excitement. “Now everyone has a chance.”
“It’s also because you aren’t a match for her.” Liu Qinyang paid no attention to Ning Shu’s feelings and came right out with the truth.
Ning Shu felt angry. It was the original host’s emotions. Ning Shu said mildly, “Even if I’m not a match for Shi Huidi, I was still the one that broke off the engagement.”
