Chapter 9 - Journey to the big day

After finishing the food, Gege got up as she glanced at both of her disciples.

"I will meet senior Wei now."

She informed them and walked towards the sect hall but Yantu followed her. She stopped and glanced at him.

"Are not to going to practice?"

"Teacher..." He looked hesitant for a second.

"There is going to held a competition for monster hunting."

Gege nodded as she remembered about the competition. The masters from all around the world were going to join it with their disciples. The one who killed most monster was going to be the winner and Yantu was the one who won it. He was also going to meet his female lead there and was going to buy her the lucky jade hairpin. But also he was going to be thrown down the cliff after the competition.

Gege gave him a nod telling that he can go buy this was not what Yantu wanted.

"Is teacher going with us?"

In the original novel, Gege was still meditating at this time and he was gone alone. So it was better to follow the original novel now.

"Master Sheng was going to take us ...."

"Oh, you can go with Senior." Gege smiled and turned as she left him alone.

Yantu saw her leaving. She was walking elegantly as she was walking on air. He waited for her return so she could go with them. He wanted her to see how strong he had become but...

He looked at his sword as he was deciding something.

On the other hand, Gege met her senior. She also saw Sheng who greeted her politely and then left as he was preparing to leave with the disciples for competition and he had to see the preparations. Sheng was taking all the disciples that wanted to participate in the competition. There were total twenty disciples three of which were Gege's.

Later, she came to her room to take rest but when she got up she was surprised to find Yantu outside while all the other disciples were ready to leave.

"Are not you going to leave?"

She asked him but he smiled.

"How can I leave teacher like this?" He wanted her to come with them but if she was not willing to go with them then he was also not going there.

This was wrong and Gege had to correct it. She sighed as she walked forward where Sheng was about to enter his carriage.

"Senior." She smiled while Sheng turned towards her and glanced at her.

"If senior do not mind then can I travel with him. I want to see the competition too."

Sheng thought for a second and then with a straight face, he gave her a nod.

Gege smiled and glance at Yantu who instantly became happy.

She followed Sheng inside and sat on an empty seat. 

Soon the journey started and she looked out of the window. Her eyes fell on a girl that was traveling on a horse beside Yantu.

She read her name and a smile appeared on her lips. She was not the female lead but she was going to be one of the three thousand beauties of Yantu's harem. The boy already got enough charm to attract the girls.

"Is she Senior Sheng's disciple?"

She asked them man who looked quite uncomfortable but he composed himself and gave her a nod.

Sheng glanced at her as he opened a box and placed it between them. It has sweet sticky rice cakes.

Gege was confused while he cleared his throat.

"You asked me to buy you this for saving my life." He felt light as he was free of burden.

"I was just joking. You should not have to do this."

Sheng looked at her. Was she?

Gege smiled as she picked one rice cake.

"I did not know that you liked sweets." The original character hated sweets but not this one. She smiled as she but into one pink colored rice cake.

"People change." She was relaxed while Sheng could only stare at her. For him, she was strange. He did not remember her like this.

Outside Yantu was irritated as a female disciple was trying to talk to him. He wanted to stay near his teacher as she could need anything.

"Senior, I have to leave." He bowed his head a little and kicked the horse a little. The horse walked towards the carriage and soon it was walking near the window of the carriage while Yantu can see his teacher talking to the senior.

His teacher only came on this journey because of him and he was more than happy at it.

Gege looked out of the window and found Yantu outside near the window. He was riding the horse with his back straight. Just like the posture if a protagonist.

Gege picked a rice cake and forward it towards him.

"Take it."

She smiled at him making him wonder why she has to be so good with him. He smiled and took the rice cake and it was a habit of Gege to always give him some of her food.

"You treat your disciples well."

Sheng asked her as when he left for meditation, the relationship of Gege with Yantu was not good. She would punish him over little mistakes.

Gege smiled and tugged the strand of hair behind her ear.

"Hm,

my this disciple will be a great cultivator one day."

"I have better disciples than him." Sheng replied.

"You are wrong here. Senior is a good cultivator and master but my this disciple will beat everyone at the competition."

Gege chuckled while outside Yantu was frozen at his place.

Teacher was showing a great trust on him and now he had to prove teacher that he was what she thinks of him.

Inside Gege sighed. No matter what but her future was not going to change. She was going to die in the hands of protagonist.
