All The Female Disciples Want To Kill Me-Chapter 103 - 102 Sinister Intentions_1

Su Bei’s lips curled into a faint smile. He just knew the old man was bluffing.

He knew all too well these kinds of ambiguous phrases, the most classic being, "If the father is alive, the mother will have passed away first."

No matter what you said, he could spin it to fit.

But Su Bei wasn’t here for a fortune-telling session. He just wanted to talk business with the man, so he’d let him say whatever he wanted...

Upon hearing the old man’s words, Xiao Ruoching froze instantly. Her face paled considerably, and her heart began to pound for no reason!

As she watched the old man continue to deduce something, she grew slightly anxious and then carefully observed Su Bei.

Noticing that Su Bei didn’t seem to be giving it much thought, she silently breathed a sigh of relief. Her gaze deepened as she looked at the old man. This man definitely has some real skill!

Su Bei was getting a bit impatient. Looking around, he spoke softly to the old man, "Elder Sir, may I have a word with you in private?"

No sooner had Su Bei spoken than Xiao Ruoching’s delicate eyebrows twitched, and her heart was in her mouth again.

The old man lifted his head and, with a meaningful look towards Xiao Ruoching, uttered a sentence that Su Bei couldn’t understand, "Obsession in your heart makes it hard to achieve true attainment."

Xiao Ruoching frowned and remained silent.

「In a secluded corner where no one passed by.」

Xiao Ruoching stared at the fortune-teller, a look of exasperation on her face. The old man, exuding the air of an immortal sage, had a grin that almost stretched to his ears!

With his hands clasped behind his back and eyes shining, Su Bei enthusiastically outlined his grand vision to the old man.

"How about that! You’ll get ten spirit stones on the books for every cultivation prospect you bring in!"

"Just bring in ten cultivation prospects for Sword Sect, accumulate one hundred spirit stones, and you can cash them out!"

"Sword Sect is a Great Sect! We’re honest with everyone, young and old. Absolutely guaranteed!"

"..."

The old man rubbed his hands together, his face alight with a mercenary eagerness. He grinned, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Su Bei!

"I know people in your line of work always have accomplices. Here’s the deal: tell all your accomplices!"

"You be the middleman. For every person they ’persuade’ to join Sword Sect, you give them eight spirit stones. They can come to Sword Sect to cash out!"

"This is Su Mou’s Token. Take it, and when the time comes, use this Token to find me at Sword Sect..."

The old man took the Token, looking at Su Bei and revealing two large, yellow teeth from deep within his mouth.

"Elder Su, rest assured. I daren’t boast, but when recruitment season arrives, there will be no shortage of parents seeking my services to divine their children’s futures!"

"I’ll count every single one, and I’ll definitely lure them all to Sword Sect for you, Elder Su!"

"..."

Su Bei furrowed his brow and waved his fingers, speaking righteously,

"Lure? Elder Sir, isn’t it that you foresaw these children have a destined opportunity with Sword Sect?"

"Yes, yes, yes, exactly!"

Two sly chuckles echoed from the corner.

「The night had deepened.」

Su Bei and Xiao Ruoching returned to the Red Pavilion once more.

But as soon as he entered the room, Su Bei was immediately called over by a Star Moon Sect Disciple to look at the newspaper Yu Hongxiu had just had printed.

Xiao Ruoching had been wearing the antler headpiece all evening. She removed it, then pricked up her ears and listened intently at the door.

After confirming that absolutely no one was eavesdropping or peeking, she let out a long sigh of relief.

Then, the tips of her ears flushed bright red. She slipped off her sword-patterned high heels and, trembling slightly with excitement, took out a piece of exquisite silk from her storage ring.

After a moment of hesitation, her expression shifted. A hint of shyness flushed her cheeks as she gently removed the long robe of a Sword Sect Disciple.

Facing the mirror, she untied the sash, and her breasts immediately bounced free, as if they couldn’t wait.

Turning to the side, she examined her own voluptuous curves. Seeing that they indeed hadn’t shrunk and were still majestically proportioned, a slight smile crept onto Xiao Ruoching’s lips.

Her long hair cascaded past her ears. She spun twice in front of the mirror, admiring herself.

I’m not inferior to my Junior Sister in any way! What does she have to be so arrogant about, anyway?

Then, as if about to perform a solemn ritual, Xiao Ruoching very seriously took the small package out from her storage ring.

Taking a deep breath, she gently unwrapped it.

The next moment!

Her eyes instantly widened, staring incredulously at the item before her.

A flush of redness swiftly spread over her entire body; her jade-like hands touched her burning cheeks, her eyes misty as she gazed at it all.

Xiao Ruoching pursed her lips tightly, her small hand clenching fiercely, her breathing somewhat ragged:

How... how am I supposed to wear this?

"..."

Xiao Ruoching’s hand trembled as she picked up a piece of fabric from the package. It resembled a dudou, yet wasn’t quite the same—it was just a piece of gauze.

The touch was silky smooth and delicate. The quality reminded her of the trousers her Master had given her before—the ones she had ripped to shreds.

But... how could anyone possibly wear this?! How could such scandalous things exist?!

Her small hands quickly flipped through every piece of fabric in the package.

There were lacy ones, semi-transparent ones, completely transparent ones, and even some with two large holes...

Not a single one was what she considered normal!

A flush of shame and anger rose in Xiao Ruoching’s eyes. She clenched her teeth, fuming,

"Master... How could Master let the shop assistant pick these things out for me? He... he’s not a good person! He... he harbors ill intentions! Does he... does he want to... to *ride* me?! He’s utterly depraved, rapacious as a wolf and fierce as a tiger, a perpetrator of countless evils! His treacherous intentions are an affront to justice itself! He’s a beast in gentleman’s clothing...!"

"..."

Xiao Ruoching’s chest heaved with anger. Her small hands tightly clutched those ’wicked’ items, and she petulantly threw the innocent scraps of fabric far away.

With her arms crossed over her chest and cheeks puffed out, she sulked. Yet, her gaze kept drifting to the pitiable scraps of fabric.

「Some time passed.」

It seemed a fierce internal struggle had taken place.

Xiao Ruoching bit her lower lip and tiptoed back towards those pieces of fabric, murmuring to herself,

These were expensive... I can’t waste them. Maybe I should just try one on first?!

...

After disappearing from Wan Qingzhai, Dan Wulan’s figure vanished from Mo City with a few swift movements.

Clutching the small package tightly, she didn’t take the main road, but deliberately chose a secluded, less-traveled path.

A faint blush lingered by her ears, refusing to fade.

Just the thought of Su Bei buying clothes for Xiao Ruoching made her chest heave violently, and she seethed with uncontrollable anger!

She found a large tree at random, leaned gently against its trunk, and stared at the small package in her hands, muttering,

"I gave him such a look, and he still didn’t offer to buy me any clothes!"

"Over twenty pieces of silk! He bought them for her without even blinking!"

"All my money went to compensate that Yu Hongxiu because of you, and you don’t even know!"

"..."

After a moment of silence, she glanced at the small package in her hands, then chuckled softly.

A fleeting, scorching heat crossed her usually cold face.

Licking her lips lightly, Dan Wulan eagerly opened the small package.

The next moment, a look of shock flashed in her eyes!

Frantically, she rummaged through the package but couldn’t find what she was looking for. Her gaze turned blank.

It took her a long while to react.

After who knows how long, Dan Wulan swallowed dryly and whispered to herself,

"What... what’s going on?"

"Why are all of these so plain?"

"Where is my Gauze Carp?!"

"Who... who switched them?!"

"..."
