Monarch Of Time

Chapter 26 - 26 Liu Mei

Just then, sudden melodious laughter was heard from a corner of the room, drawing everyoneʼs attention.

An enchantingly beautiful woman was standing there, painting a picturesque scene.

Her flawless face had left both men and women in the room dazed.

Her breathtaking black eyes resembled the starry night while her perfect red lips were simply mesmerizing.

She wore long green robes that indicated her status as an inner disciple in the sect.

Shun Long had never seen a woman more beautiful than her in his life.

ʼʼEven those celebrities from my past life couldnʼt compare with this woman in front of meʼʼ he thought while he was looking at her peerlessly beautiful face when a voice suddenly woke him up.

ʼʼHey what are you all looking at?ʼʼ the voice was full of disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e as it reverberated inside the room, coming from behind this peerlessly beautiful woman

Shun Long then noticed another pretty woman in green robes, standing even further behind in the corner. It was this woman who had spoken just now.

ʼʼThis woman may be slightly lacking in terms of appearance if I were to compare her with the peerlessly beautiful girl beside her, but to be honest, she is also a great beauty as well.ʼʼShun Long thought as his gaze turned to examine this girl too.

ʼʼSenior sister look, now everyone is looking at us.ʼʼ Apparently, this peerless beauty was the ʼsenior sisterʼ while the other beauty standing closer to the corner earlier was the ʼjunior sisterʼ.

Nobody knew what method these two girls had used to conceal themselves inside the room. Otherwise, with their extraordinary appearances, it would be impossible for people to not have noticed them.

ʼʼHmph, so what if they are looking at us, I didnʼt expect that the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ in our ʼfloating cloud cityʼ to only be at this level.ʼʼ

ʼʼHow dare yo..ʼʼ Bu Duyi who had ʼonly just recoveredʼ from ʼSenior Li Weiʼsʼ kick on his waist, and was enraged as he heard what this girl had just said. She directly implied that there was something wrong with the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ and Bu Duyi wouldnʼt allow them to expose him like that when even senior Li Wei had covered for him earlier today.

But contrary to all expectations, it was Li Wei who had cut off his words, by sending a heavy slap at his face.

ʼʼIf you speak one more sentence, you will have to collect your rolling head from the floorʼʼ

Then Li Wei put on the best smile he could muster and even though it looked like he was half-smiling and half-crying, he approached the two green-robed girls as he said

ʼʼMiss Liu Mei and miss Lan Jinjing, it is an honor for you to visit my ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ. Please forgive that ignorant idiot who is too blind to see who you are. If you wish to punish him however, you can do so freely, I will definitely not object to it.ʼʼ

Bu Duyi whose heart was blazing with flames of rage, now felt like he had just been showered with a bucket full of ice.

Shun Long was also speechless by how shameless Li Wei could be.

ʼʼThese two girls must definitely have some extraordinary origins or this shitty old man wouldnʼt be so polite to themʼʼ he thought.

The ʼjunior sisterʼ of the two, Lan Jinjing looked at Bu Duyi as she said coldly

ʼʼFor daring to speak like that to my senior sister, you deserve death!ʼʼ

Lan Jinjingʼs eyes were bursting with anger and she looked like she was just half a step away from tearing Bu Duyiʼs body apart when Liu Mei stopped her and said

ʼʼWe shouldnʼt kill anyone inside the city, even if it is sc.u.m like this person or we too would become the same as them in that case.ʼʼ Liu Mei said in a cold voice that didnʼt hide her disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e towards Bu Duyi, before she turned her head to look at ʼSenior Li Weiʼ saying

ʼʼMister Li, you should allow this junior brother to participate in the test. Everyone inside the hall knows the truth about this matter and it could possibly affect your reputation. This junior brother only intended to take the test when this woman first insulted himʼʼ Liu Mei said as she pointed at Jing Fei.

Jing Feiʼs face had turned completely white. She knew that these two stunning women were definitely inner sect disciples and this time she was most likely doomed.

Shun long was also surprised. Liu Meiʼs bluntness astounded him.

Nevertheless, he politely cupped his fists at her before turning and leaving the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ. His meaning was obvious.

Shun long had refused Liu Meiʼs goodwill as this was a matter of pride for him.

Since the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ had kicked him out the first time, he wouldnʼt return even if Li Wei had begged him. Besides, all that he wanted to do this time aside from participating in the examination for the rank 1 alchemists, was to verify some of his theories about medicinal ingredients and see whether a few of his hypotheses were correct or not. But even without the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ he could still do it, it would just take a bit longer to do it.

Lan JinJing was tongue-tied, it was the first time someone hadnʼt accepted her senior sisterʼs polite intentions. People would usually rush to fawn over her but this guy did the complete opposite.

Liu Mei wasnʼt offended by Shun Longʼs refusal to her. It was actually the first time that a young outer sect disciple had picked her interest, her sparkling eyes looking at Shun Longʼs lonely back as he walked out of the Guild.

Just as Shun Long had left the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ, a big ball of meat could be seen rushing towards him.

Shun Long instantly turned around and was about to curse Bu Duyi before turning to run since he couldnʼt beat him just yet, when he noticed that this personʼs shape was different from Bu Duyiʼs.

If Bu Duyi was like a rugby ball, then this person resembled more like a football (/soccer ball), since his belly was completely round.

Despite being fat, this person had arrived in front of Shun Long almost instantly, as he panted a bit before saying

ʼʼBrother, you were really impressive back there.ʼʼ the fat person said as he pointed behind him at the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ.

Shun Long looked at this person who was also wearing green robes and thought

ʼʼArenʼt inner disciples supposed to all be in the inner city and only rarely to come to the outer city? Then how come Iʼve already seen three today?ʼʼ

This fat disciple then cupped his hands as he said

ʼʼMy name is Fu Li and Iʼm from the inner sect. How can I address you junior brother?ʼʼ

Shun Long was still on his guard towards this Fu Li but he didnʼt sense any ill intentions from this person, so he too cupped his hands as he said

ʼʼMy name is Shun Long.ʼʼ

ʼʼBrother Shun haha what a coincidence. Will you accompany this elder brother for a drink at the ʼMystifying Fragrance Pavilionʼ?ʼʼ
