Chapter 63: Riverly Purple Mist

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

One day, I’ll be able to cast spells like seniors! Song Shuhang thought.

At this time, the short-haired woman opened her arms and lifted one end of the pill furnace. She walked several step and frowned.

“Dong!”

She put down the furnace, and turned her head at Song Shuhang.

“Are you Song Shuhang?” she raised her eyebrows and said, “Can you help me carry it? It’s a man’s duty to help a beautiful lady in trouble, right?”

“Do you know me?” Song Shuhang wondered, and approached to help her with carrying the furnace.

The pill furnace didn’t weigh much. It was just a little bit large. It might be hard for one person to carry it, but two persons would make it quite easy.

“Don’t ask such a silly question. You should tell the relationship between Medicine Master and me with a single glance. Then you should deduce that I’ve probably heard about you from Medicine Master,” the woman said with a poker face.

No one can tell the intimate relationship between you and Medicine Master with a single glance, alright?!

Song Shuhang complained in his mind, then tried asking, “Intimate relationship? Are you the dao companion of Senior Medicine Master?”

“No… I am just his disciple for now. Riverly Purple Mist, this is the name I’m using, and I probably won’t change it in at least thirty years.” She seemed to be pleased when Song Shuhan called her the ‘dao companion’ of Medicine Master. “Medicine Master said that he was heading to Jiangnan to do some research, so I came here to bring him his pill furnace. You know, he will just ignore everything when he is engaged in research. He needs someone to take care of him… take care of his hair, tidy his clothes, and remind him to cultivate or have meals at regular intervals.

As they were talking, the two had reached the third floor, which was the temporary pill refining room of Medicine Master.

As soon as the door opened, Song Shuhang saw a brand-new room.

And… he saw a brand-new Medicine Master.

He didn’t look like a ‘Shamate’ anymore. But, how should he describe the current appearance of Medicine Master?

Regarding his hairstyle, the long, explosive hair had been carefully tended to. Now, the hair of Medicine Master was tied into many small braids, which… were all erect!

There were at least twenty braids on his head, which made the head of Medicine Master Look like a forest. Many of the braids were even decorated with cute ornaments.

To tell the truth, this hairstyle is even worse than the explosive one! Song Shuhang thought.

The black eyes of his still existed, but now… they were covered with a real smokey makeup!

Song Shuhang could see that as Medicine Master blinked, the circles of his black eyes glittered from time to time, which was the effect of eye shadow.

Song Shuhang felt his stomach twitching and he felt like vomiting.

In his opinion, Medicine Master looked even worse than before—the Shamate-looking Medicine Master was better-looking than now. She just tried to make him look truly ugly.

Was Riverly Purple Mist afraid that a handsome Medicine Master might be stolen by other women?

She could rest assured, as no girl would fall in love with the Shamate-looking Medicine Master.

Seeing Song Shuhang, Medicine Master smiled. “Yo, Little Friend Shuhang has come. Yes, it’s just the right time for you to come.”

“Why, Senior, did you know I was coming this morning?” asked Song Shuhang.

“Well, of course. Something happened to you last night, right?” Medicine Master had an inscrutable face.

Sure enough, it was Senior Medicine Master who protected him last night.

Feeling reassured, Song Shuhang answered, “Yes, someone sneaked into my dorm late last night. The guy left this handleless knife there. I could smell a faint smell of blood around my dorm, so I thought there must be something wrong there.”

As he spoke, he took out the thin handleless knife and handed it to Medicine Master.

Medicine Master took the knife, glanced at it, and handed it back to Shuhang. Then, squinting his eyes, he asked, “What do you think the guy who sneaked into your dorm yesterday wanted to do?”

Song Shuhang answered, “I think there are a lot of possibilities, but the most likely one is… the guy was trying to kill me.”

Riverly Purple Mist laughed, “It seems that you are not hopelessly dull.”

“Yeah, you are right, this handleless knife is full of bloody smell and the resentment of the dead, so the owner of the knife must have slain a lot of people. To be honest, I didn’t want you to get exposed to the cruel side of cultivators’ world so early, but this is what cultivators’ world is really like. Crises don’t only come from heavenly tribulations and natural disasters, but also from… man-made disasters. Then, Little Friend Shuhang, how do you feel about the assassination aimed at you?” Medicine Master smiled.

How do I feel?

I feel a lot of things. It is quite complicated! Beyond expression!

Thinking for a while, Song Shuhang answered, “To be honest, I was a little bit scared at first. Because, I found that I was so off my guard that I didn’t even feel anything when the enemy had sneaked into my dorm and come all the way to my bed. That’s one of the reasons I came here, Senior. At least, I wanted to be more vigilant.”

Hesitating for a moment, he said embarrassedly, “But then, I felt a little bit… excited.”

“Excited? Hahaha.” Medicine Master laughed, “Little Friend Shuhang, you’re such a strange guy.”

It was really weird that he felt excited about being assassinated.

“A strange guy.” Riverly Purple Mist echoed.

Medicine Master laughed and began to explain.

“Yesterday, I secretly set a mini-formation on your body. I’m sorry, I did it without your consent. But, the formation I had set could somewhat protect you by reacting to attacks of cultivators. Besides, it contained a drug that I had specially prepared. Here’s a hint: this drug used to be my favorite. Ahem…” Medicine Master was a little bit embarrassed. After all, it was rude to secretly set a formation on Song Shuhang’s body, though he meant to protect him.

“However, late last night, this formation was activated by someone, and the drug in it was unleashed.”

Only a cultivator who is intending to attack can activate the formation.

“To be honest, I thought you would not need the formation. I thought the guys following me wouldn’t be so crazy. But, it seems I overestimated them. They’re already like mad dogs, biting around. Little Friend Shuhang, I’m sorry to have caused you trouble.”

Medicine Master thought that the man who assassinated Shuhang was one of the guys who were following him. After all, he didn’t know any cultivator who would attack Song Shuhang, a rookie to cultivation.

Riverly Purple Mist added with a smile, “But that’s alright. You will never see the guy who sneaked into your room yesterday again.”

That was to say, the killer yesterday was dead?

“Do you think it cruel, Little Friend Shuhang? But this is what cultivators’ world is really like. I know you’re a kind-hearted… good man. But, never waste your mercy and kindness on your enemies. This is a warning from a senior.” Medicine Master said earnestly.

Song Shuhang was a good man, which he could tell from ❮True Self Meditation Scripture❯. So, Medicine Master was a little worried that he would be too tender-hearted to his enemy, which would be a disaster eventually.

Being a good man might be good, but a bleeding-heart attitude would be dangerous in the cultivation world.

“Please rest assured, Senior. I might be a good man, but I am definitely not a saint who takes it a duty to save the world. As for enemy, I think the best enemy is a dead enemy.” Song Shuhang thought for a while and answered seriously.

Riverly Purple Mist said again. “You really are a strange guy.”

Medicine Master nodded with a smile. Someone with a bleeding-heart personality could be a headache, but a good man with his own principles would be great.

“Besides, Senior Medicine Master, I think I should thank you, for if it weren’t for you, I could have been killed yesterday.” Song Shuhang said. “In fact, besides the cultivators following you, the guy who was trying to kill me yesterday might be someone coming for this.”

Song Shuhang pulled out his pendant, and showed them the spirit-binding ice bead.

“This is what I got when I helped Soft Feather last time… a ghost spirit.”
