Meanwhile, at the snowy-light peak of Jianyu Sect, certain duo were still up despite the time already being mid-night. Who could it be other than the unruly youth, Wang Li Jie, and his little master, Zhang Long Wei?
In a little white lotus chamber, one was chasing whereas the other was attempting to make his escape. If it were not for the sound proofing barrier set up by the demon, all the other disciples and elders in the entire sect might have already woken up from noises coming from this chamber alone.
It was extremely calm and quiet outside the chamber that one could even here a needle drop. But inside, it was the absolute opposite.
"Wang Li Jie..... I'm just going to take a quick check. Why so startled and use unnecessary struggle? "
Zhang Long Wei had finally managed to catch the youth. Grasping and restraining the youth's left ankle in one hand, the demon reached out for the other ankle so that he could draw him closer.
Wang Li Jie was struggling and wriggling like crazy to make his escape. But the clutch on his ankle was so tight that he knew it was impossible. And when he saw another hand of this junior reaching out for his next leg, the youth exploded. Picking up his pillow besides in a fluster, the youth tossed it right into Zhang Long Wei's face as he snapped out loud.
"You damn pervert... let go of me!!.... right now!! "
Okay, so before we proceeded, why not take a quick look back as to how Zhang Long Wei ended up here and why was he even doing this to get called " damn pervert" by his very own disciple?
It all started from the duel of the two from noon. Yet again, the unlucky Wang Li Jie got stabbed with his opponent's sword which would be no other than the deathly ice blade. But this time, it was in his chest. And the injury ended up being serious as it turned out to be a bit deep. Wang Li Jie could barely make it to his chamber even with the help of Zhang Long Wei.
The demon was also startled at this unexpected accident. The youth kept counterattacking him as though he was in a real battle that Zhang Long Wei had no choice but to use a particular intense move of his.
Nonetheless, he didn't expect it to injure the youth this much. The demon overestimated this youth's reflexes. And that's how he hurt this youth by accident.
The vexed Zhang Long Wei tried to help him. But Wang Li Jie was overly stubborn and didn't accept his aid at first. Though the demon managed to convince the youth to accept his aid at the end, he still failed to urge Wang Li Jie to go get a check-up from a physician. Zhang Long Wei just didn't know the reason. But this youth was just too unyielding with his decision and made Zhang Long Wei take himself to his white lotus chamber.
As soon as the youth entered his own chamber, the door was shut in Zhang Long Wei's face with a loud bang. This signal could be translated to "get the fuck out" and the helpless demon, who got this meaning right away, had no choice but to come back with that uneasy feeling in his heart.
.....Will he really be okay just like that? ....
Zhang Long Wei was pondering over whether or not he should go take a look at the youth's conditions after remaining training sessions were over when he spotted the youth in a certain crew of seniors passing by him at the arena .
What the hell? Was that youth crazy or was it just that he had no brain that the youth had to attend his classes as if nothing was happened to him..... as if he was not the one who was injured seriously just this afternoon.
Zhang Long Wei just couldn't get this matter out of his head. And his self-cultivation time at night was wasted like that..... he just couldn't bring himself to focus on anything. And that was when he made up his mind to check in on the youth tonight...just for once.
Only after waiting until the time, when other disciples and elders might have already turned in did Zhang Long Wei step out of his chamber, heading for a certain place which would be no other than white lotus chamber where he took the youth this afternoon.
It was already midnight by then, so the demon was not even sure whether or not this youth had already gone asleep or not. Just in case, not to disturb the youth's sleep, he just chose to take a glimpse at Wang Li Jie's condition from the window to his chamber.
And as to asking about the detailed conditions of his health, it would do even if he inquired it tomorrow. With this thought in mind, Zhang Long Wei turned back only after arriving at the door of the youth's chamber. He was planning on taking a single stealthy glance into the room from a little window when he met eyes with the youth just at that very single glance.
To tell the truth, Wang Li Jie was counting stars by then since he still couldn't bring himself to close his eyes and fall asleep tonight.
And also, here's the thing. When Zhang Long Wei checked in on the conditions inside, he didn't do it like a normal human being. By "unlike a normal human being", it meant he didn't looked into the chamber with his feet on the ground. Instead, the skilled Zhang Long Wei glanced into the chamber with his whole body dangling down from the roof just like a spiderman in marvel series from modern era.
So the startled Wang Li Jie who thought it was a ghost punched him in the face on impulse. Yeah... ghosts really did exist in their realm. But that didn't mean he could not be afraid of them. That's right. Ghosts scared this youth. But not their existence but their hideous appearance.
In fact, he didn't see the exact appearance of the culprit in the dark at that time. But as to his instincts, the youth gave that suspicious and very-likely-to-be ghost a good punch.
If it were not for his quick reflexes, Zhang Long Wei was sure that he had to attend classes tomorrow with a red joker nose on that already average face of Li Zian which would end up resulting in a pretty ugly appearance.
" What the fuck!.... Li Zian..... Why are you here? "
The youth who had finally realized this suspicious ghost was no other than his little master asked only to get an inquiry back.
"What is that thing on your neck? "
Caught off guard, Wang Li Jie covered his neck. But it was already too late and those purple bruises didn't manage to escape the eyes of the demon lord. Zhang Long Wei could tell they were bruises like someone got when strangled with force by someone else. And he also had this very premonition that the culprit would be no other than himself.
These bruises... by any chance..... could it be that they were from the night at the brothel? ....
Talk about finding out one's own little crime ended up way more terrible than oneself had thought.
