My Master Disconnected Yet Again Chapter 188

Chapter 188 - Negotiating Compensation

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Qiao Qiao!” Bai Ti called softly. Now was not the time for her to be throwing a tantrum.

“No, I will not go back,” Bai Qiao shook her head violently. Her voice was filled with panic. “It took me a lot of effort to find this Spirit Convening Lamp! As long as I can get my hands on it… This time I will surely…”

“Qiao Qiao!” Bai Ti lowered his voice, interrupting her. He sounded slightly angered when he spoke again, “Why are you still stuck in your daydreams? Celestial Emperor Xin Han will never fall for you. So what if you manage to find that Spirit Convening Lamp? You can’t change this fact.”

“But he’s injured!” Bai Qiao explained, panicked. “His Primordial Spirit is injured – that’s why he doesn’t feel anything for me. Once he recovers, he will see who has been kind to him all this time.”

“Ai, you know what kind of technique he’s training in, right? Why are you trying to achieve the impossible?” Bai Ti let out a long sigh. Then, he continued, “Qiao Qiao, listen to me! Give up. Come back with Master. There are so many immortals in Bai Zhao. You will surely find someone better than him.”

“But they are not Xin Han!” Bai Qiao’s eyes were reddening. The tears began to flow down her cheeks. She turned around and clung on to Emperor Bai’s sleeves. “Father… I beg you, please let me borrow the Spirit Convening Lamp, will you? I promise this will be the last time.”

“300 years ago, you said the exact same thing.” Bai Di’s eyes became cool. He was beginning to get extremely impatient. “But what happened in the end? All these years, you fell from being a Stygian Immortal to a second-stage demon. Are you really intending to throw your life away for him? Have you ever thought what Father would do without you?”

“I… I…” Bai Qiao hesitated, but there was a little hope that twinkled in her eyes. “Father… Your daughter is unfilial, but all my life I only have this one wish. I… I will be careful. Nothing untoward will happen to me. I just need that Spirit Convening Lamp… I just need…”

“Haven’t you thought that he’s a Celestial Emperor? Why would he need you to help him heal his primordial spirit? Even without the Spirit Convening Lamp, he should be able to recover. What’s more…” Bai Ti explained, “Even if his primordial spirit recovers, he will not feel anything for you!”

“…” Bai Qiao stared at the ground.

Bai Ti’s heart hurt to see his daughter this way. He gathered what immortal Qi he could from his heavily injured body and transferred it into the white fox beside him, helping it to transform. After a few seconds, a teenage girl in white robes appeared. She had beautifully shaped eyebrows and huge eyes and small lips. She was truly a manifestation of a fox – she had the features of one. In her eyes, however, there was an immense sadness. She looked like she would break into tears at any time.

“Qiao Qiao…” Bai Ti sighed and continued, “You know that he’s training in the Heartless Dao. He has a heart of steel. Nobody in this immortal realm does not know that he broke off a relationship and dug his own heart out in order to become a Celestial Emperor. He was already a heartless mortal who did not care about relationships, anyone or anything. Even if you help him now, he will still remain that way.”

“But… But…” Bai Qiao could no longer hold back her tears. As a human, she looked even sadder. “I… I cannot let him go. I really cannot! Father… I only have you… Please, I beg you, help me to borrow the Spirit Convening Lamp? I promise that this will be my last time. Just take it as a favour between father and…”

Before she could finish speaking, her body was thrown aside by someone’s kick. She became a fox once again as she rolled down the hill. The rest of her sentence caught in her throat.

“Dau… Dau… Dau… Daughter…” she said as she rolled down the hill.

Shen Ying, who was holding a bowl of rice in her hand, retracted her leg. She grunted in frustration.

Lonemoon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

The four emperors: “…”

The crowd: “…”

(⊙ o ⊙)

Whoa!

They did not understand why the Sect Master took action, but they felt elated inside for some reason.

Shen Ying calmly sat back down and continued eating her rice, as if she had not just rushed up to kick someone off the hill. She hated hearing people dumbing themselves down and insisting on one-sided relationships. It ruined her appetite.

“Qiao… Qiao Qiao!” Bai Ti only just managed to respond. He turned to glare at Shen Ying and charged at her furiously, “Why, you…”

“Stop it!”

Before he could finish, Blackbird, Ji Zhe and Chu Xuan who was standing beside Lonemoon charged forward to stop him. They pushed Bai Ti back so that he fell onto the ground.

Holy shit! He might want to die but they did not want to be collateral damage!

Chu Xuan: Wait! Why did he charge over?

“You all… Wu wu wu…” Bai Ti did not get to finish his sentence. The three men covered his mouth and stopped him from talking. They turned to glance at Yi Qing, who was filling Shen Ying’s bowl with more food. Seeming to recall something, they suppressed the anger welling up in their chest. Bai Ti might have been worried for his daughter but this was certainly not the place for him to lose his temper.

Seeing that Bai Ti had calmed down, the three of them let him go.

“Fellow immortal…” Bai Ti sucked in a deep breath and stared at the only man who called the shots in the entire Invincible Sect – Lonemoon.

“We offended you before. My daughter also tried to steal your lamp and that was not right of her. But… You saw for yourself. This lamp is really important to her. I wonder if you could…”

“No!” Shen Ying shouted before Lonemoon could respond.

“I know that this divine artefact is not like any other, but if my fellow immortal is willing to lend it to me, I will pay any price. Even if it means…” Afterall, he had a soft spot for his daughter. He gritted his teeth and continued, “Even if you want to exchange it for a divine artefact of mine… I will do it!”

He twisted his wrist and a silver pocket watch appeared in his palm. It was a Divine Refining Clock, but this clock seemed to be covered in cracks.

“The lamp…”

Shen Ying had not finished speaking before Lonemoon reached out and covered her mouth. He nodded. “Alright!”

Bai Ti broke into a smile.

“But your Divine Refining Clock is already broken. I can only lend the lamp to you for ten days!” Lonemoon continued, “And this loan has nothing to do with what happened before.” He would still have to compensate them for his daughter’s attempt to steal the lamp.

“Thank you, Fellow Immortal!”

Lonemoon began to discuss with the three men about what an adequate compensation would look like for the entire “misunderstanding”. He burnt an enormous hole in each of their pockets before letting them go.

“What do you want this rotten clock for?” Feng Ying could not help but ask, after seeing everything play out before his eyes. It was functional, but its power was already reduced significantly. “You don’t even know how to fix it.”

“I don’t, but Tao Shu does!” This divine artifact was created by their race. Swapping that rotten lamp for this divine artifact was extremely advantageous for them!

“…” He was satisfied – there was nothing more he could say

“That’s right, what happened to you earlier?” He turned to glance at Shen Ying. “Why did you suddenly kick that demon?” Wasn’t she a very lazy person by nature?

“Was it sudden?”” She thought it was natural for her to kick the demon. It was not sudden at all. “Hey, maybe… Maybe I just got reminded of my older sister.”

Lonemoon started. “You have an older sister?!”

Shen Ying shivered. She sat up straight and no longer looked as lazy as she normally did. There was a weird expression on her face as she said, “I wish I did not…”

Everyone said that Yi Qing was the number one Sword Cultivator in the world, with a swordsmanship and cultivation that no one could surpass. Whether it was when he was cultivating in the Lower Realm, or when he was in the Ten Heavens of the Upper Realm, he has always been undefeated. Yi Qing laughed and said: “That is because you do not know of my Master. If we speak of cultivation, I am not as good as she by a long mile. Thinking about it, at the start, out of the ten Heavenly Emperors of the Upper Realm, my Master beat up nine, and the one left was myself.” “Master? You actually have a Master! Who? How come we never heard of it?” “My Master is…. Eh? Master? Master! And my Master? Has anyone seen my Master?” A person next to them quietly raised her paw. “I am here!”
