Chapter 67 - 67 67 Half of the Incense Offerings the Demon Reveals Its Form

67: Chapter 67: Half of the Incense Offerings, the Demon Reveals Its Form 67: Chapter 67: Half of the Incense Offerings, the Demon Reveals Its Form Third Master Ding also had his own difficulties.

Why in the Water Margin Tale, were so many heroes forced to ascend Mount Liang?

The main reason was like Zhu Bajie looking in a mirror—he wasn’t quite human inside or out.

Leaders want you to take initiative, to find your own solutions to problems.

But if you lacked the ability, in the end, the problems would solve you.

Leaders found it difficult too; they’d given you such a good job, how could you still have the nerve to ask for a salary?

The younger generation just can’t handle hardship, not understanding that suffering losses is a blessing.

Like grass on the top of a wall, leaning whichever way the wind blows.

To put it nicely, it’s about being resourceful and having plenty of options.

To put it not so nicely, it really means you’re lacking in strength and at the mercy of others.

Third Master Ding wanted to be a mediator, but unfortunately, he was caught between two tough nuts.

That friend of his didn’t even need to be mentioned; he raised hell with no sign of restraint.

On Wang Yunxiao’s end, don’t be fooled by his youth, thinking he’s easy to swindle.

But he was an old hand in the Jianghu World, and all his young followers were uncultivated ruffians who dared to fight and kill.

They were no pushovers; without sufficient benefits, they wouldn’t give you the time of day.

So the problem arose, with that friend, for some unknown reason, unwilling to offer benefits, or perhaps incapable of offering them.

And yet, he still had the nerve to act all high and mighty, expecting Third Master Ding to smooth things over.

Could Third Master Ding settle this matter?

Yes, but why should he?

I’m not your sworn brother bound by life and death, why should I spend my own money to resolve your problem?

There’s no such logic in this world.

Now, he had managed to get Wang Yunxiao to come out.

After three rounds of drinks and a taste of five dishes, if that friend still hadn’t shown up, then he was really treating him like a complete sucker.

With this thought, Third Master Ding picked up his cup and, lowering his voice, said, “Actually, brother, I’ve got my own unspeakable difficulties…”

Wang Yunxiao, biting into a steamed bun, smiled and said, “You don’t have to say it, I can guess most of it.

It’s like a toad lying on your foot, not biting but grossing you out.

Your unspeakable difficulties boil down to worrying that friend won’t abide by the norms of Jianghu World, playing dirty with you, right?”

“Exactly, exactly!”

Third Master Ding’s face broke into a smile at once.

This was a true friend of the Jianghu World, speaking straightforwardly, doing the right thing, showing mutual understanding and consideration.

What was that grandson anyway, different from the muddle-headed client who demanded a kaleidoscope of black?

Any difference?

Seeing no sign of that friend coming, Third Master Ding steeled his heart and pulled out a half stick of sandalwood as long as his finger from his pocket, lit it, and placed it at the edge of the table.

As the fragrance spread and enveloped the elegant room, Third Master Ding edged closer to Wang Yunxiao and whispered, “Young Hero Wang, have you ever seen demons and evil spirits?”

“I have.”

Wang Yunxiao nodded and said, “I have a pretty good idea of what your friend is, just not sure about his background and connections.”

Third Master Ding frowned and said, “This person has significant backing; we common folks can’t afford to provoke him.

But as for the man himself, I think that’s all there is to it.”

Clueless about human affairs, a bully to the weak and fearful of the strong, insatiably greedy—such people can never make it far in any circle.

Wang Yunxiao raised an eyebrow and gave Third Master Ding a meaningful look.

“Your friend mentioned a ‘Minor Cave Heaven’; I know what he’s talking about.

How about…

we team up to explore it?”

Third Master Ding’s eyes lit up, and he asked instinctively, “Is there really an Immortal Cave?”

Wang Yunxiao snorted.

“This isn’t about whether it exists or not, it’s about who you trust.

Do you trust me, or that person whose name you don’t even dare to mention?

Third Master Ding, you have to choose one.”

“Just agree to him…”

Third Master Ding nodded, suddenly feeling that something was off, and subconsciously glanced to the side.

Within the elegant room, at the banquet table, someone had appeared out of nowhere.

It was as if he had been sitting there from the start, yet Third Master Ding had been completely unaware of his presence!

The man was dressed in black satin long coat, wearing a black hat and dark glasses, his entire being like a shadow hidden in the darkness.

He didn’t speak, and no one would have noticed him.

But he finally couldn’t help but speak up.

When he did so, he inhaled a whiff of smoke.

The half-portion of sandalwood that Third Master Ding was burning seemed to have some special effect.

Without meaning to, he took a deep breath of the incense, and his mind instantly felt foggy.

When he came to his senses, he looked up to see Wang Yunxiao’s piercing gaze.

Wang Yunxiao could see him now!

Wang Yunxiao raised his hand and tossed a small iron pot filled with vinegar his way.

A whole pot of aged vinegar splashed over his face and body.

“Old Third Ding!

You bastard, plotting against me…”

By now the other man realized that he had been tricked.

Third Master Ding’s intentions might not have been that malicious, simply aiming to force him out of hiding.

But he also knew his own suffering.

That grandson Wang Yunxiao, was he someone easy to deal with?

The blow was really harsh!

Could anyone manage that without having a few lives on their hands?

Even ghosts fear the wicked.

Caught off guard and doused in vinegar, he was about to explode with anger when Wang Yunxiao leaped onto the table and flew towards him, kicking towards his face.

It was an all-out, life-risking move.

What on earth happened in your childhood to make you turn out like this?

This man was not a Jianghu World expert and was completely unable to defend against Wang Yunxiao’s sudden attack.

As he saw Wang Yunxiao’s attack coming, he let out a bizarre yell, and thick smoke billowed out from under his black clothes, scattering in all directions as his body sharply deflated.

Wang Yunxiao’s kick only hit a piece of clothing, and when he turned back, the black smoke had already escaped through the cracks of the window.

“The cicada sheds its skin, Thief Sun, you think you’re so great?

Then why do you run when you see me?”

Wang Yunxiao didn’t even look at the window, but clasped his fists towards Third Master Ding, grabbed a couple of steamed buns, eating them as he rushed out of the elegant room and shouted downstairs.

“Goods are up!

Brothers, form an array and grab your weapons!

Light the fire in the west, and get it blazing in the east!”

At once, the two tables of people sitting downstairs stood up.

Under Youtiao’s direction, they grouped in threes, sealing off the entrance and exit of Tianbao Pavilion so tightly no wind could get through.

The shopkeeper and shop assistants were all startled.

All of them had listened to storytelling and, although they didn’t understand what these half-grown lads were saying, the way they poised themselves like the heroes of Mount Liang made it clear what they intended to do.

The negotiation had failed, and a conflict was imminent.

Ever since this group had entered, the shopkeeper had sensed something amiss.

Though he had kept silent, behind the scenes, he had secretly sent a shop assistant to call for reinforcements, fearing these lads would cause trouble, ruining the business of the shop.

Breaking a few pots and pans was no big deal, but it would be troublesome if any guests were injured.

Seeing them stand up as if about to cause trouble, the shopkeeper hurried over with a forced smile and said, “Honorable heroes, please hear me out…”

Before he could finish speaking, his vision darkened as he saw Wang Yunxiao leap straight down from the third floor.
