Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 291: Chapter 131 Madam: 94, is this Avici Hell? _6

”Ah! What the—Master!”

”Go, go...”

Feng Xuan waved his hand, fuming, and upon hearing these words, Fa Cai hesitated for a moment before bowing and saying, ”Yes.”

He turned and left.

Once Fa Cai had left, Feng Xuan looked up at the sky and said, ”Heh, The day will never come for you to rise above me, the day will never come!”

Feng Xuan roared angrily!

His voice echoed through the secret chamber!

...

Chen Jie drank with the crowd until the afternoon, and seeing the evening approaching, he stood up to take his leave.

He told everyone he was returning home, but in fact, he sneaked out of the city and galloped straight into the countryside.

He didn’t want to be seen leaving the city, so he left early, which reduced the chance of arising suspicion.

After exiting the city, Chen Jie found a secluded place to sit cross-legged and waited for nightfall.

After about an hour, as the sky darkened, he headed toward Jixiang Temple.

As he approached, Chen Jie tied his horse a good distance away, and then he alone leaped into Jixiang Temple by the light of the moon.

At that time, the temple was distributing food.

The nuns, big and small, lined up with their bowls to get their meal, but not far off, there was a private seat for a beautiful and enchanting woman, who sat there dressed in a blue nun’s robe.

Her black hair was loose on her back, not overly groomed, giving off a relaxed air.

In her hand, she held a scroll of scriptures, and in front of her were dishes of white cabbage and tofu, a dish of cold cucumber, and only half a bowl of rice in her bowl.

A maid stood by, attending to her in silence.

The woman read the scripture while eating her rice, barely touching the dishes in front of her.

Her eyes never left the text and her hands never released the scroll.

”Is Mrs. Huang so keen on learning?”

Chen Jie was very puzzled.

The maid looked up at the sky, noticed that the moonlight wasn’t bright tonight, and said, ”Light the lamps!”

Upon hearing this, a nun went to light the lamps immediately. All the temple’s expenses were provided by Nan Batian, so when someone said to light the lamps, they were lit.

Chen Jie was hiding on the roof and when he saw them about to light the lamps, he was startled, thinking, Won’t I be exposed if the light is too bright?

But looking down, there were so many rooms, where was Room A?

Chen Jie looked around and saw Master Jingxiang leaving a room, thinking, Could it be this old nun’s room? With that thought, he swiftly moved along the rooftops and slipped into the old nun’s room unnoticed.

Upon entering, Chen Jie began to search everywhere.

He saw the room was filled with scriptures, two wardrobes, and a bed.

Chen Jie rifled through the scriptures and then quickly restored everything to its original state.

Opening the wardrobe, he found some clothes.

Nothing, nothing.

Then he approached the bed, which held a straw cushion on it. Chen Jie lifted the cushion to see if there was anything underneath.

Nothing there either.

Where could it be hidden?

Thinking hard, Chen Jie suddenly noticed something off about the bed under the cushion; he knocked and it sounded hollow.

A hidden compartment?

Chen Jie’s eyes lit up, and upon trying, he discovered a sliding-type compartment, which he opened.

Instantly, he was dumbstruck!

”Damn!”

Chen Jie looked at the hidden compartment in astonishment; inside there were some oddly shaped sticks that were very smooth and lifelike, well-maintained, and obviously used.

Chen Jie didn’t dare to touch them, thinking...

Sorry for disturbing you, Master, I’ve seen your dreadful secret.

Chen Jie quickly closed the compartment, then pressed the cushion back down on top of it. No wonder you were expelled from Emei, your purity is compromised.

However, he wasn’t in the mood to care about the Master’s private life; what he was really concerned about was, what exactly was the secret manual of the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms!

Tap tap...

Just as he was lost in thought, sudden footsteps sounded at the door. Chen Jie was startled and quickly jumped onto a roof beam to hide.

At that moment, the door creaked open, and Master Jingxiang appeared halfway out of the doorway.

Suddenly a young nun came and said, ”Master, Room A needs hot water for a bath, would you like one too?”

Master Jingxiang replied, ”Oh, that’s a good idea, but make sure the water temperature is just right. Never mind, I’ll check it myself; we can’t take Mrs. Huang’s matters lightly.”

With that, she left the room.

Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief: ”Room A, could this not be Room A, the one where Mrs. Huang stays?”

Having figured this out, Chen Jie wasted no time.

He had no desire to stay; in a while, the old nun would return for a bath and a change, and he definitely didn’t want to bear witness to that, crikey!

Chen Jie quickly slipped out, confirming the direction.

Mrs. Huang’s room, ah, it should be this way, I think I’ve noticed before.

Chen Jie thought and slipped into Mrs. Huang’s room, which was very plain with almost no furniture.

Chen Jie searched everywhere, but found nothing.

Then suddenly, the door moved. Chen Jie was taken aback and quickly flew up to the roof beam.

”Come now, place this bath tub here, good, you all can leave now.”

The maid scattered flower petals into the tub, stirred the water with her hand to find it was just the right temperature, and immediately called out, ”Madam, it is ready.”

At that moment, Huang Wan’er entered the room gracefully.

And from above on the roof beam, Chen Jie turned to see something on a nearby pillar: ”Eh, what’s that?”

Chen Jie shifted his position and came directly above the tub, while Huang Wan’er approached the tub and gently stirred the water within. But just as her hand was about to touch the surface, she froze, because the reflection in the water showed a man crouched on the roof beam.

Huang Wan’er was about to scream, but upon closer inspection, she realized it was none other than Chen Jiusi, the man she had fantasized about the night before at Avici Hell!

Why was it him!

Huang Wan’er remained unfazed.

Meanwhile, Chen Jie wasn’t paying attention to what was below because he noticed someone had forcefully embedded a bamboo tube into the wood of the roof beam with Inner Strength.

”What’s this?”

Chen Jie reached out and grasped the bamboo tube.
