MTLNOVEL Chapter 161
Many within the Immortal Sect looked down on Meng Yu, and even those who were kind did so from a position of superiority.
Thus, Meng Yu's final statement in the forum that day stirred quite a bit of discontent.
His statement went like this.
"I achieved Foundation Establishment in Changdong Minor World, so I would ask that all my seniors at Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, even Nascent Soul, refrain from suppressing their cultivation to come to this minor world. If anyone wishes to come, sorry, but no matter if your intentions are malicious or benevolent, or if you wish to teach me the principles of life, I will not discriminate and shall kill with a single sword strike."
He spoke with such boldness and after that, he no longer engaged in the discussions.
Because Meng Yu knew very well what superiors were like.
The sacrifices of the lowly might be forgotten, their contributions seen as a matter of course by those above. Meng Yu's proposals and questions may have seemed good at first to them, but they merely thought Meng Yu wanted to be co-opted by the Immortal Sect.
Ah, so you need something from me, then shouldn't you...
There were never any stories of meeting a big shot and then rising to success, but rather countless young people just like you turned into a mountain of bones, with one unfortunate youth eventually getting lucky and seizing that piece of rotten flesh.
So, on that day, Meng Yu decisively severed all ties with these people.
When dealing with them, you must have sharp teeth and claws!
He browsed and observed issues, then kept silent. Even if someone asked him a question in between, Meng Yu did not respond.
Then, more and more transport ships arrived at Changdong Minor World, bringing loads of supplies and a great number of Qi Refinement Practitioners.
Meng Yu was satisfied with Zhuge Caihua and a few other classmates. Knowing that Meng Yu was in Changdong Minor World, they did not seek him out actively, but instead found ways through network means to shield Meng Yu's presence and did not come to him proactively.
If Meng Yu wanted to contact them, his cultivation made it easy, but the fact that he didn't meant he did it for their own good.
And so, a month and a half later, Meng Yu once again left Changdong Minor World.
...
In the Western Wastes, at the Moon-Watching Sect.
When six Storage Bags were thrown before Bai Qianqian, the jade rabbit was finally overwhelmed by Meng Yu's generosity.
It was like a girl from an impoverished family who suddenly faced a calamity when a kind young man appeared out of nowhere, bought a house for her parents, secured a job for her brother, cleared their debts, and benefitted her relatives and friends in various ways. He continued to act like a gentleman, asking nothing in return for his help.
What could Bai Qianqian do?
From two Storage Bags to six, each filled with a wealth of treasures, while the Spirit Stones she had gathered for Meng Yu to exchange in fair trade remained untouched.
No matter how she tried to persuade him, Meng Yu would humbly accept and firmly resist change.
It's my way of honoring my master, don't interfere.
And she was utterly powerless to do anything!
Although the external debts were cleared, the sect's Great Formation repaired and upgraded, and many aided, her heart felt heavy. Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire
Fine, I know what you, the defiant disciple, want to do... you just know how to bully me.
She murmured, her voice soft and gentle.
"I agree to be your wife."
"Ah?"
Meng Yu, of course, wasn't one for formalities and quickly embraced Bai Qianqian in his arms.
"Wife, let's announce to the world now that we are married."
"No, you must promise me that once I marry you, you will stop your robberies, and we'll live a good life together, alright?"
"Not okay."
Meng Yu replied earnestly.
"I'll carry out a few more heists, maybe ten or eight times, to save up enough money. Wife, you should have a Third Grade weapon, Protective Armor, Magical Treasures, and so on. I will prepare them all for you."
Meng Yu had a massive amount of supplies back there. Having spent just a tenth, supporting Bai Qianqian twice over was no problem, making the good rabbit well worth the investment.
"But..."
"No buts," he interrupted her, "Thank you for agreeing to be my wife, I'm so grateful. How about we tell everyone now and start living well together?"
Meng Yu disregarded the traditional respect for teachers, making Bai Qianqian feel like she might have made a mistake.
Announcing their union to the world was out of the question. When Meng Yu returned from his third robbery, Bai Qianqian decisively closed the gates of the Moon-Watching Sect.
To the outside, it was declared she was going into seclusion, but in reality, it was to avoid owing more and more.
Yet, Meng Yu kept on bringing her loot.
"I only agreed, I didn't say we would hold a wedding... I'll continue teaching you about Formations."
In the days that followed, Meng Yu continued to study Formations tirelessly, while Bai Qianqian answered the questions raised and warned him strongly never to discuss Formations directly with anyone, offline or online, as you can never be sure if there's a hook in the questions asked!
It is easy for a novice to give themselves away.
Life went on day by day, and Bai Qianqian gradually grew accustomed to being with Meng Yu, especially at times when she found herself enveloped in his arms, like when studying seated on his lap.
