Chapter 598: Chapter 598: Just a Sharp Tongue, That’s All_1

Du Xishan, trying to break the silence, spoke softly, "Just as Mu Yun said, Xishi indeed drowned herself in the lake. Zheng Dan was too late to save her and could only exert a lot of effort to retrieve Xishi’s body from the water. Out of guilt for her cousin Xishi, Zheng Dan brought Xishi’s body from Wu State back to Zhuluo Village and buried her underneath the waters where Xishi used to wash her silks. Because Xishi had told Zheng Dan before that if she were to die, she hoped to be a free fish in the water."

"A beauty’s life is always so fragile," Kim Jae-won sighed softly.

"When Zheng Dan brought Xishi’s body back to Yue Kingdom, it coincided with the death of Goujian’s wife Ya Yu from poison. Although Goujian did not officially marry Zheng Dan, he brought her into the palace, and the two spent their later years together, so... the other owner of this tomb chamber is Zheng Dan."

Hearing this, everyone felt a sense of sorrow, while you slowly stood up with Xian Qianling’s support, "You don’t actually need to feel sad for Xishi, her end like that was inevitable, the best one. Alright, now that the Treasured Sword has been returned to its place, we too must leave. It’s not good to disturb the tomb owners for too long, better to let them continue on peacefully."

With those words, the Sen Luo Curse Mark in your pupils began to spin once again, and this time, a spinning black vortex appeared in front of you,

"Let’s go."

Xian Qianling supported you, limping into the center of the black vortex.

The black vortex was like a door; pulling aside the curtain, the world outside was bathed in dazzling sunlight.

As all of you stepped back into the sunlight, you couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

"Being bathed in sunlight really feels good," Hong Xiu stretched out lazily,

"Little Yunyun, how did you get hurt like this?"

Upon seeing you supported by Xian Qianling, covered in injuries, Xiao Feng, who had been basking in the sun, immediately jumped up and hurried over to your side.

"Don’t even mention it, that thing down there was too fierce, nearly took my life."

After the black vortex behind gradually disappeared, he glanced around and said to Xian Qianling beside him, "Crazy Woman, support me over to that lawn to sit down."

Since you were a patient for now, Xian Qianling didn’t bother to argue about the nickname "Crazy Woman." If it were a normal day, a beating would certainly have been in store.

Once Xian Qianling walked off to the side, you sat down cross-legged under the sunlight, allowing it to cover your whole body.

"Sss—"

The piercing sunlight fell on your wounds, making a noise like a hot iron quenched in cold water.

The intense pain made you furrow your brows tightly, your body started to tremble slightly, and your forehead was covered in cold sweat; soon, the others noticed wisps of smoke rising from your body. When the smoke had completely dissipated, your furrowed brows finally relaxed.

"Huh—"

You exhaled a long breath; the sword qi that had lingered in your body was finally expelled completely.

Slowly standing up, you addressed the people in front of you, "What happened today, let’s not spread the word. The six Treasured Swords in Goujian’s Tomb Chamber have formed a very powerful Sword Array. Although I used all my strength to seal it just now, I estimate the Seal is already undone. Anyone who tries to enter the tomb chamber will be mercilessly slain."

You specifically looked at Yang Kai as you said the last part, and obviously understanding your intent, he nodded, "Let’s just say we came out to relax and have fun. Let’s allow the secrets of Goujian and Zheng Dan to stay buried forever."

"Okay, let’s go, back to Yuhang."

For the next three days, you lay in the bed of the men’s dormitory.

As a result, that single visit stirred up such a fuss. What used to be an ignored boys’ dormitory instantly became a hot topic. Blaring headlines could be seen everywhere: on the university forum, in the club newsletters, on various WeChat platforms of Jiang University, and in QQ groups:

President of Supernatural Detective Agency severely injured, Goddess provides personal care!

Two goddesses appear in the boys’ dormitory, guarding night after night—who is that guy?!

Breaking news! Goddess Wu and Goddess Zhao face off in the same room, all for one man!

...

Actually, it wasn’t as sensational as the rumors made it out to be. Wu Qiyi had only visited once during those three days, and after seeing everything was fine, she left. As for Zhao’er, it was because of her presence that the four-person dorm room became a small space just for you and her. Wei Shuxian and the other two were kicked out and went to stay in a nearby hotel.

For three days, Zhao’er was by your side almost constantly. She sat quietly, you lay quietly, and it was as if the two of you reached a tacit understanding. Neither of you spoke, just looking at each other, and this went on for three days.

On the morning of the fourth day, the dormitory door was kicked open by Yang Kai.

"Damn it! I’ve been putting up with this for too long!"

As soon as Yang Kai entered, he shouted at the top of his lungs, furious and somewhat beside himself.

Just as you were about to ask what was going on, you noticed Liao Yong and Wei Shuxian had also come in. Wei Shuxian’s expression was still somewhat normal, but Liao Yong kept his head half bowed, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"Old Shu, come judge this for me!" Yang Kai walked over to your bed, pointing at Liao Yong, "Black Bull went too damn far. Three days in a row, every night from his room came sounds louder than the live set of an island country’s romantic action movie. The moaning and groaning were one thing, but then there were high-decibel screams. Oh, my heavens, you can’t imagine how that felt! At that moment, I only had one thought: grab a *****, burst in there, and chop up that dog couple!"

Liao Yong scratched the back of his head and said with a smile, "Well, we’re about to have a vacation, and we’re parting ways soon, so... hehe, you know."

"I know your ass!" Yang Kai glared fiercely at Liao Yong, "Isn’t it just a holiday for the Tomb Sweeping Festival? Plus the weekend, it’s only a bit over four days. Even if you go home for tomb sweeping, it’s just such a short time. Did you both drink from the Ganges or something? Can’t spend a day without going at it like rabbits!"

Hearing Yang Kai mention the Tomb Sweeping Festival, you couldn’t help but turn to Wei Shuxian, who was enjoying the scene, and ask, "Glasses, is it the Tomb Sweeping Festival already?"

"Yeah, the day after tomorrow."

Upon hearing that, you slowly sat up. Your body had mostly recovered, and both internal and external injuries had healed. You immediately jumped off the bed and said to Zhao’er, who was sitting on the chair more quietly than the chair itself, "Zhao’er, let’s go."

"Okay."

"Hey, where are you going?" Wei Shuxian asked.

"Going home for tomb sweeping. Gonna be quite a bit of traveling these next few days."

Seeing that Yang Kai was still babbling non-stop, you stepped forward and kicked him, but the slippery eel dodged.

"Old Shu, why the hell are you kicking me?"

"You’re just typical envious and resentful, you know. Black Bull’s diligent in his fieldwork. If you have the skills, get Nie Ying to moan and scream at high decibels, and we’ll all take our hats off to you," you retorted.

Before Yang Kai could respond, Wei Shuxian doused him with cold water, "Him tilling the land? Dream on. That guy gets whipped by Nie Ying into a rainbow of bruises every time; he’s all talk, no action."
