Chapter 549: The Lethal White Moonlight, Stirred Emotions of Horse Face
“Swish!”
Ma Ling’er suddenly stood up, aiming her magic treasure at Jian Fei beside her.
Looking at the sharp weapon, Jian Fei wanted to speak but held back, ultimately choosing silence.
“Chen Qizi, demon cultivators should be exterminated by all, what you just said, I can pretend not to have heard.”
Glancing at Ma Ling’er with her sharp gaze, Chen Changsheng poked the fire alone and said, “A true man standing between heaven and earth, how can words spoken out be retracted?”
“We are indeed demon cultivators; if you want to k*ll or punish us, go ahead. Whether I will resist or not doesn’t matter.”
Upon hearing this, Ma Ling’er frowned and said, “I see that both of you are not the kind of despicable people.”
“There are countless righteous paths in the world. Why do you two choose these crooked ways?”
“Miss Ma, not everyone can choose their birth. You are the renowned Little God of Wealth, the pearl in the palm of the Heavenly Horse General.”
“We are just rats living in the sewers. We also wish to walk the righteous path, but we have no choice.”
After listening to Chen Changsheng, Ma Ling’er pursed her lips and said, “Today, I’ll pretend I didn’t see you.”
“If we meet again, we will be enemies, not friends.”
With that, Ma Ling’er left, leaving behind a beast skin bag.
Halfway through, Ma Ling’er stopped and looked at the silent Jian Fei, saying, “Your fate is not good. You shouldn’t have walked the path of demon cultivation.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Ma Ling’er vanished instantly.
Once Ma Ling’er disappeared, Chen Changsheng immediately picked up the beast skin bag and said joyfully, “Two hundred thousand divine sources, the God of Wealth truly has deep pockets.”
“Youngster, do you want half of the two hundred thousand divine sources? It’s yours for the taking.”
Watching Chen Changsheng’s happy demeanor, Jian Fei replied speechlessly, “Sir, with your status, two hundred thousand divine sources shouldn’t be a big deal, right?”
“Why do you act like a petty person, losing your dignity?”
“Huh!”
“How interesting. You, a demon cultivator, talk about dignity. Who’s being shameless here?”
“Besides, two hundred thousand divine sources might not mean much to me, but ten thousand could be what you never earn in a lifetime. Do you really not want it?”
Looking at the beast skin bag in Chen Changsheng’s hand, Jian Fei pursed his lips and said, “I won’t take the money this time, maybe next time.”
“Oh my!”
“Refusing money, could it be you like her?”
“Sir, that’s just a joke. How long have I known her? There’s no way I could like her.”
“It’s not certain. Isn’t there a saying, ‘love at first sight’?”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, Jian Fei rolled his eyes and said, “I would only like Miss Ma if the sun rose from the west.”
“The firewood is gone, I’ll go pick some more.”
With that, Jian Fei got up and headed towards the woods.
Watching Jian Fei’s back, Chen Changsheng grinned and said, “Horse Face, do you think this young man is falling in love?”
Hearing this, the horse spoke in human language, “Young people are often moved by emotions. In a few days, he will get over it.”
“That’s not necessarily true,” Chen Changsheng smiled and shook his head, “Men only show their pride when they are in love.”
“He dared to challenge the Yin Messengers to refine the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, showing he values money over his life.”
“But now, with two hundred thousand divine sources in front of him, he doesn’t even lift an eyebrow. Clearly, he has fallen in love.”
“Ma Ling’er’s demeanor and speech are excellent, even more so, she has a kind heart.”
—
“Under normal circumstances, Jian Fei’s actions deserve chopping off a hand, but Ma Ling’er only slapped him.”
“When Ma Ling’er left, she even cared for Jian Fei. Do you understand the subtlety?”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, the horse thought for a moment and said, “I am dull, please enlighten me.”
“You’re not dull; you’re pretending to be ignorant.”
“Jian Fei used to be a rat in the sewers, living a life on the run every day. Suddenly, he received attention.”
“Such kindness has a huge impact on Jian Fei.”
“You are the same. Back then, all the people in the Land of Reincarnation were killed, except for you and Bull Head.”
“The reason for this favor was to make you grateful and work for me.”
“You know my intentions, and you did as I wished.”
“Do you think you ever had a chance to carry me?”
At this, the horse immediately knelt down and said, “Your great kindness, Horse Face will never forget.”
“Jian Fei being favored by you will surely lead to a good match in the future.”
Seeing Horse Face’s excited state, Chen Changsheng waved his hand and said, “Enough, such loyalty is unnecessary before me.”
“After all, you are a beast of the Immortal King level. Constant kneeling looks unbecoming.”
Hearing this, Horse Face became even more excited and said, “Horse Face will always be your steed, your thoughts are my thoughts.”
“Your worries are my worries.”
Looking at Horse Face, Chen Changsheng fell silent for a moment and then said, “Get up. What happened in the past is not important. What matters is what you think now.”
“Bull Head and Horse Face are well-known, showing your diligence in the Netherworld.”
“The people in the Netherworld are somewhat rigid. Don’t let past minor grievances limit you.”
“A Yin Messenger’s position is somewhat wasted. I will adjust your positions after some time.”
“Thank you, Sir!”
Hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, the horse stood up excitedly.
Being promised a promotion by Chen Changsheng was not particularly exciting for a beast of the Immortal King realm like Horse Face.
What truly mattered was Chen Changsheng’s attitude.
Being granted the opportunity to redeem himself was something Chen Changsheng had personally decided. Only Chen Changsheng could lift this burden off him.
Once this burden was lifted, the sword hanging over his head would disappear.
Thinking of this, Horse Face said, “Sir, the difference in status between Jian Fei and Ma Ling’er is too large. Should I help him?”
“No need,” Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, “A man can sacrifice everything for white moonlight.”
“But the moonlight in his heart may not lead to a good match. A good match or a bad one lies in a single thought.”
“This play is quite interesting.”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng turned to Horse Face.
“Horse Face, do you think Jian Fei is qualified to take the sword under the Sword Qi Great Wall?”
At this, Horse Face became serious.
Because the sword under the Sword Qi Great Wall was incredibly significant.
“Sir, are you going to move that sword?”
“Yes, there are strong enemies outside. Without proper weapons, it’s impossible.”
“It must have sensed me. Otherwise, it wouldn’t use sword qi to provoke you.”
With that, Chen Changsheng turned his head toward the direction of the Sword Qi Great Wall, his furrowed brows indicating that this task would not be easy.
