Chapter 68
byIn the courtyard of the Second Elder of Lingxiao Pavilion, Yang Kai wolfed down his food while Su Mu and the others sat beside him and talked to him.
Of course, the group was also inquiring about why Su Yan had attacked Yang Kai so severely that night. Yang Kai didn’t dare to say.
“By the way, has Wei Zhuang not caused you any more trouble?” Yang Kai changed the topic and asked. Speaking of which, ever since leaving the Forest Prison that day, he had been unconscious and then frozen in ice. Yang Kai really didn’t know how the sect had dealt with this matter in the end.
“That matter has passed. From the elders in the pavilion to us junior disciples, “no one will pestering that matter anymore.” Su Mu replied, and suddenly looked at Yang Kai with a puzzled expression and said, “Actually, the reason why we are safe and sound this time is not because of my grandfather’s credit.”
“Hmm?” Yang Kai looked up, “Isn’t it because of the Second Elder’s operation?”
“No.” Su Mu slowly shook his head and somewhat embarrassedly told what happened in the Elder Hall that day, and then said, “Just when I was immobilized by my grandfather, guess who came?”
“Who?”
You would never have thought that it was actually Shopkeeper Meng of the Contribution Hall. He brought the ect Leader and also had theSect Leader’s oral order, which is why the matter was minimized and resolved.”
“Old Man Meng?” Yang Kai was stunned.
“If it weren’t for him, Senior Brother Yang, you might really be severely punished by the Great Elder.” Su Mu said this with a face full of guilt.
Yang Kai smiled freely: “Junior Brother Su doesn’t need to take it to heart.”
Su Mu repeatedly made bows: “I know that Senior Brother is magnanimous. On behalf of my grandfather, I apologize to you. The old ghost really did something unethical this time.”
Yang Kai didn’t take it to heart. The struggles among the high-level always use the disciples under them as chess pieces. This is human nature.
Su Mu added: “Shopkeeper Meng has a mysterious background, and the old ghost also said that his strength is unfathomable. I just don’t know why he would get involved in this matter and actually have a friendship with theSect Leader.”
Yang Kai mused, “Old Man Meng is a real skinflint. He won’t do anything without a profit. He went through all this trouble for a reason. But regardless, the fact remains that he helped us. We should go and thank him, and also see what he’s up to.”
“Brother is right. We were just waiting for you to go together,” Su Mu said.
“Let’s go now.”
Without further ado, the group marched towards the Contribution Hall in a mighty formation.
Inside the Contribution Hall, Dream Shopkeeper was rarely not sleeping. Instead, he was sitting upright behind the counter, smilingly looking at the group of people led by Yang Kai as if he had been waiting for them.
Su Mu put on a flattering smile and said sweetly, “Hello, Grandpa Meng!”
Previously, this second-generation ancestor had always addressed Dream Shopkeeper as “Hey, that old man.” But today, how dare Su Mu be disrespectful in front of him?
Dream Shopkeeper smiled slightly and said, “The kid is quite obedient.”
“Hehe,” Su Mu was extremely embarrassed.
“You came to thank me?” Dream Shopkeeper sized up the crowd with a sidelong glance.
“Yes,” the group nodded.
“Well then, Little Yang Kai stay, and the rest of you scram!”
“Yes!” Su Mu and the others didn’t dare to hesitate. Their feet hadn’t even warmed up on the ground before they quickly bowed and retreated. After leaving the Contribution Hall, the crowd finally understood that the reason Dream Shopkeeper had helped them was all because of Yang Kai. Otherwise, why would he leave Brother Yang alone?
But… why did he help Brother Yang?
Inside the Contribution Hall, Yang Kai was also confused and puzzled: “Shopkeeper Meng, what do you want from me?”
He didn’t beat around the bush but directly asked the question in his heart.
Meng Wuya chuckled and walked out from behind the counter, with his hands behind his back, walking around Yang Kai in circles. After walking several circles in a row, he raised his head and asked, “What do you think I want from you?”
“I don’t know.” Yang Kai rolled his eyes and thought, if I knew, why would I still ask you?
Meng Wuya said, “Since you are so straightforward, I won’t play tricks on you either. You should be a person who knows how to repay kindness. This time I helped you out of trouble, and I just want you to help me with one thing.”
Yang Kai frowned: “I can help you with something?”
Shopkeeper Meng had profound strength. If he couldn’t handle something, how could he handle it well himself?
As if seeing the worry in his heart, Shopkeeper Meng smiled and said, “Don’t worry, there is no danger. As long as you meet the conditions, not only will there be no danger, but there will also be a great benefit waiting for you.”
Yang Kai keenly perceived that when Shopkeeper Meng said the last sentence, there was a hidden feeling of pain on his face.
“Helping you still requires meeting conditions?” Yang Kai became even more puzzled. He had really never seen such a person who was so picky when asking for help.
Shopkeeper Meng said, “Not only do you have to meet my conditions, but you also have to satisfy another person.”
“It’s so troublesome. I won’t do it.” Yang Kai turned around and was about to run outside.
“Don’t!” Shopkeeper Meng was in a hurry. After much effort to find a person who met the conditions, how could he let him go like this?
“Little Yang Kai, you can’t be like this. You should know that a drop of kindness should be repaid with a gushing spring. Anyway, I’m your savior. How can you make me feel cold-hearted?”
“Then stop beating around the bush. Just tell me what the matter is. If I can help, I will. If not, you can go and find someone else.”
“Stretch out your hand. I’ll check the vitality in your body.” Shopkeeper Meng didn’t dare to keep people in suspense anymore.
Yang Kai looked at him suspiciously and stretched out his hand. He believed that Shopkeeper Meng wouldn’t do him any harm.
Meng Wuya probed out two fingers and put them on Yang Kai’s wrist, seriously checking. The expression on his face changed constantly. At first, it was casual, then it was serious, and then it was full of surprise. The speed of his face-changing was jaw-dropping.
“Good, good, good. Such pure Yang Yuan Qi!” Meng Wuya withdrew his hand, overjoyed.
“This favor has something to do with the vitality I cultivated?” Yang Kai guessed.
“Naturally it does.” Meng Wuya nodded vigorously. “Otherwise, why would I look for you? Little Yang Kai, I’ll ask you another question. You must answer me truthfully.”
“What question?”
Meng Wuya’s expression suddenly became embarrassed, his eyes flitted around, carefully consider his words. After a long while, he asked nervously and expectantly: “You’re still a virgin, right?”
Because he was too nervous, Meng Wuya’s neck stretched very long, and he directly brought his face close to Yang Kai’s, and his two eyes stared straight over.
Yang Kai quickly took two steps back, and then three more steps back, got goosebumps all over his body, couldn’t help shivering, and said extremely vigilantly: “What are you doing?”
This old guy, couldn’t he have some special hobby? This question is too absurd!
“Why are you running so far? I won’t eat you!” Meng Wuya chased after him closely, directly forcing Yang Kai into the corner, and asked in a low voice with a mysterious face: “Are you still a virgin?”
“What on earth do you want to do?” Yang Kai put on a posture that if you dare to mess around, I will die with you!
“What do you think of me?” Meng Wuya finally woke up when he saw Yang Kai’s appearance, couldn’t help but blush, and also quickly took a few steps back, “It’s not what you think, you kid is so dirty!”
