Not long after, a group of sleepy-eyed High Heaven Pavilion Disciples gathered.
“Young master Su, is there anything you need?” Someone asked while rubbing their eyes.
“It’s nothing much, it’s only about the affair this morning.” Su Mu tried his hardest to calm down, “The reason why I have gathered you all here is that I want you to help me come up with some ideas that will help me get revenge and pacify my hatred.”
Someone out of the group spoke out. “Young Master Su, why don’t you just wait four days. In four days, you can go challenge Yang Kai, and you will definitely be able to beat him to pieces.”
Annoyed, Su Mu replied: “If I really wanted to wait until then, then why did I call you all over?”
The sleepy people, who had been gathered, were suddenly startled into standing up. Evidently, they weren’t very awake, so nobody had paid attention to Su Mu’s words and only yawned overtly. When he saw their reactions, Su Mu became vexed. Slamming onto the table he shouted: “All of you! Help me think of some good ideas! If you guys can’t help me think of some good ideas, none of you can think about going back to sleep!”
This startled everyone, and they realised that Su Mu was actually angry. His slam and loud voice had caused them to fully regain consciousness and they hurriedly put their minds to use, thinking up some good strategies.
Not long after a Disciple named Li Yun Tian eyes widened from formulating a good plan. Opening his mouth, he told Su Mu, “Young Master, we could do this……”
As he said this, he crept closer to give a detailed explanation of his plan.
Su Mu’s heart burst with joy, he hit Li Yun Tian’s back in excitement while praising, “Not bad. Not Bad. This is a good plan, so I will leave it to you to complete the task!”
“Leave it to me young master Su!” Li Yun Tian also produced a wide smile.
“You can all go back to sleep.” Su Mu waved his hands as he spoke and everybody relaxed before promptly leaving to go back to their beds.
Looking out at the pitch black darkness outside his room, Su Mu laughed evilly. “Yang Kai, Brother Yang, let us wait and see each other at dawn!”
Finally, with his heart content, Su Mu fell asleep.
The next day, Yang Kai woke up to practise the Tempered Body Record before going out to do some sweeping.
Yesterday, when he used the incense burner to help practice, although he was constantly on the brink of death; so much so that even now his whole body ached; the results were evident. This was most obvious when he was practising the Tempered Body Fist because he felt that the pressure he felt was slightly smaller. He had also understood that the pressure given from the incense burner was similar to the pressure he felt when practising the tempered body record. As long as he adapted to one type of pressure, he would naturally be able to adapt to the other type.
[This incense burner was a blessing!] His spirits high, Yang Kai wanted to quickly finish his work and go back to train.Just as Yang Kai was halfway through his sweeping, someone had suddenly blocked his path. Looking up, he thought that person looked vaguely familiar. When he was thinking this, that person opened their mouth and laughed loudly.
(Erza: It’s here guys, Ning makes her reappearance. Prepare yourselves for more risqué leg action, three-quarter length pants incoming. Just kidding.)
(Silavin: The Fk you talking about Erza?)
Last night Li Yun Tian had suggested a plan to Su Mu. Though he had everything planned, he didn’t dare be careless, for he knew it would not be easy. He must not let the opposite party become suspicious and must first trick him; to make him exchange some moves with him.
Yesterday when he had accompanied Su Mu to challenge Yang Kai, he had hidden at the rear of the crowd. He also didn’t say much, so Yang Kai shouldn’t be able to recognise him, making things much easier.
Earlier on, he had been waiting for Yang Kai to come past this area to do his daily sweeping. Finally, his long waiting had paid off when Yang Kai had come over. Putting on a big and friendly smile :D, and an innocent and harmless demeanour, Li Yun Tian walked over.
[This current expression should be friendly enough!] Li Yun Tian told himself to boost his confidence.“Does this Fellow Brother have any problems?” However, Yang Kai was not courteous since any Disciple here currently should be his junior. It was early into the entry period, so their levels shouldn’t be that high, so many could be addressed as Fellow Junior Brother.
“Are you not Senior Brother Yang?” Li Yun Tian asked as if he knew the answer already.
Yang Kai nodded his head: “Yes.”
Breathing in deeply, Li Yun Tian said: “So it really is you! Senior Brother Yang, I have been looking forward to meeting with you. Now that I have met you today, I can see you really live up to expectations!”
(Erza: Arse-kisser!)
These words had made even Li Yun Tian himself want to vomit, but he must maintain the facade and act like his words were sincere.
“Senior Brother Yang! Senior Brother Yang!” Yang Kai’s name was already loudly proclaimed by this Junior.
Li Yun Tian put up quite a performance. Taking Yang Kai’s hand, he said admiringly: “Senior Brother Yang, I heard you had taught Zhou Hu a harsh lesson yesterday. You really a person with a big heart.”
“What, you have some enmity with him?” asked Yang Kai while sizing him up.
Li Yun Tian’s face turned cold: “Yes I do. That person is a beast, despicable; he even humiliated me once.”
“But you didn’t go get revenge.” Yang Kai noted.
“I even dream about getting revenge, but……” Sighing loudly he replied: “Senior Kai, I’m afraid you also know this, Zhou Hu has somebody supporting him. I wouldn’t pay attention to an insignificant person like Zhou Hu, but the person behind him is someone I can’t easily provoke. ”
“That’s true.” Yang Kai nodded his head; after all, Su Mu had some powerful people backing him. So an Ordinary Disciple obviously wouldn’t dare provoke him.
“That’s why yesterday when Senior Brother Yang gave Zhou Hu a lesson, you helped this junior get his revenge.” Li Yun Tian said gratefully, tears flowing down his face.
Laughing, Yang Kai replied: “We were only exchanging some pointers, it wasn’t anything.”
Li Yun Tian pressed ahead: “Senior Brother Yang, since you were able to win against Zhou Hu, your strength shouldn’t be that weak.”
Waving his hand Yang Kai replied: “It’s not much, it isn’t that amazing.”
Li Yun Tian was sneering inside, [you finally said something true. If you didn’t plan something yesterday, then how could Zhou Hu possibly lose to you?] But Li Yun Tian didn’t dare reveal his true thoughts, in case Yang Kai became suspicious, that would be the end of his plan.
“Senior you are too modest. Come, come, come, normally I, Li Yun Tian don’t have the opportunity to exchange pointers with anybody. Senior Brother Yang, you have done so much for me and since we happened to meet up today we must not miss this chance. Please spar with me.” After going around in circles, Li Yun Tian finally found an opportunity to ask the question that was the true reason he had talked to Yang Kai.
Forcing a smile, Yang Kai asked: “You want to compare notes with me?”
Li Yun Tian nodded his head enthusiastically: “Of course! I hope this Senior will not be stingy and allow this Junior to see that strength that defeated Zhou Hu. It would also be beneficial to my cultivation..”
This reason was really a bit hard to believe. Thus, Yang Kai shook his head and rejected the request: “Forget it. I don’t usually fight others anyway.”
Li Yun Tian anxiously pressured him: “That won’t do, Senior you will agree even if you don’t want to.”
Laughing, Yang Kai looked at him coldly.
Li Yun Tian’s heart jumped out. He was a bit impatient just then and was too rushed and forceful with his words, he immediately started laughing too, “Junior is really too weak. So if Senior were to give some pointers, it would be very helpful.”
“No can do.” Yang Kai refused.
“Why?”
“There is no reason to…..”
Seeing that Yang Kai was intentionally moving away from him now, Li Yun Tian called out. “Exchanging some notes, naturally we could help other greatly. Isn’t that reason enough? If we exchanged pointers, it will benefit both of us.”
“You can put it like that, but…..no.” Repeatedly Yang Kai waved his hand.
“Don’t be like that Senior! Exchanging some pointers will not make you pregnant!” Li Yun Tian’s face was full of anxiety; he didn’t even dare reveal his true intentions. Heart thumping, he quickly thought up an idea: “Could it be that Senior is afraid of losing and have his contribution points be deducted?”
I can finally understand why it has 6000+ chapters. Every chapters feels too short.
Worldbuilding isn’t the fastest, and there will be logic holes (or logic crates) but it’s a great story.
