The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

Just now, she saw many, many images. They all appeared in her mind in an instant, and she received so much information that it made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She saw the grievances between these fox spirits and Liang Bing, and witnessed the entire truth.

”Your ancestor fell into an enchanted slumber, and the key to awakening her is him. If you kill him now, your ancestor will truly never wake up,” Cui Wenyan pointed at Liang Bing, who was still immobilized and yet to regain consciousness.

”Are you telling the truth?” asked the four porters again.

”Can you speak one at a time? My head hurts. Do you all need to sing in a quartet when you speak? Isn’t it exhausting?” Cui Wenyan put away his whip and glanced at the group of cross-legged sitting little foxes behind the four porters, strangely finding them inexplicably obedient.

”How do you know that the ancestor can wake up?”

”Why do you claim he didn’t betray? He obviously abandoned our ancestor.”

”How can we awaken our ancestor?”

”Yes, it’s because of him that our ancestor fell into an enchanted slumber.”

The four porters began to argue noisily.

Headache! Finally understand why these four foxes always speak together.

Cui Wenyan frowned, ”One of you speaks, and the rest keep quiet. I can’t hear you clearly.”

”Alright, I’ll speak. Human, tell us your reasoning. If you’re lying to us, we’ll fight you to the death even if we’re shattered to pieces,” one of the porters spoke.

”Your ancestor financed him to go to the capital to take the exams, right?” Cui Wenyan pointed at Liang Bing.

”Yes! But then this traitorous dog passed the imperial exams and changed his heart, intending to marry the Princess. He even sent a group of fierce guards to kill our ancestor. Our poor ancestor was still at home waiting for him to come back to marry. If it weren’t for rescuing us, how would our ancestor have been seriously injured, and how would she have fallen into an enchanted slumber?” The porter got angrier as he spoke, with his hands turning uncontrollably into sharp claws, grinning at Liang Bing, wishing to tear him apart now.

”That’s not how it is.” Cui Wenyan shook his head, ”He never betrayed your ancestor, and his only love has always been your ancestor.”

”I don’t believe it! Humans are the worst,” the four porters once again shouted in unison.

”Let me tell you how the truth actually is.” Cui Wenyan sat down, pointed again at Liang Bing and the others, saying, ”But before that, unlock your illusion technique and let them wake up to listen together.”

The four porters exchanged glances and nodded. The leading porter exhaled, and that breath floated in front of Liang Bing and the others, dissolving away.

Soon Liang Bing and the others woke up, but still couldn’t move their bodies. Each one widened their eyes, looking at Cui Wenyan and the four porters, not understanding what was happening.

”Alright, let’s reason this out,” Cui Wenyan said, ”If we’re wrong, we’ll apologize and compensate; if you’re wrong, you must apologize and compensate. Don’t get agitated, listen to me. This person you’re looking for, Liang Bing, is the scholar your ancestor financed long ago, right?”

”Yes! He’s the one who harmed our ancestor.” The four porters squeaked angrily.

”Your ancestor and the scholar met, understood each other, and fell in love. Later, she financed the scholar to go to the capital for the exams, and the scholar indeed passed as top scholar. Up to this point, everything is correct,” Cui Wenyan said seriously.

Wu Yihao and the others widened their eyes.

What is Cui Wenyan talking about?

Especially Liang Bing, who was absolutely baffled; what does Cui Wenyan mean, that he’s the scholar in the story?
