Sovereign of the Heaven - C227
You Qin shook her head: “No, I just don’t think there’s a need to kill him. He’s very powerful, maybe…”
Ning Fu interrupted: “I don’t care how powerful he is, I only know that he knows of your identities. You Qin, before our Nether Moon Sect regains his previous strength, you must not reveal it, listen to me, go kill him, if you are unwilling, I will let others go.”
“But …” You Qin originally wanted to advise her otherwise, but she did not say it out loud. In the end, she nodded her head.
After leaving the pavilion, You Xiang, Jing Lan and the rest waited outside.
You Xiang saw that You Qin’s face was slightly pale and asked suspiciously: “Elder sister, what’s wrong?”
You Qin paused for a moment: “Sect Leader wants me to kill Di Chen.”
“What?” You Xiang shouted in shock, she did not expect Sect Leader to do this, even Jing Lan was surprised, Di Chen’s cultivation was not weak, she even gave the Pearl of Life back to Di Chen, Sect Leader still wants to kill him?
Jing Lan hurriedly asked, “You Qin, did you not tell Sect Leader about Di Chen’s identity?”
Di Chen was a literati, his skills were unique and he had trained in the martial spirit of light, this kind of person was very rare, killing him would be too much of a pity.
You Qin shook her head: “You know about the Sect Leader, but these are not important to her. If he wants to keep Di Chen alive, he has to join our Nether Moon Sect, and also have to guarantee that he won’t tell anyone else about our Nether Moon Sect, but I don’t think he wants to join us.”
Earlier, Jing Lan advised Di Chen to join the Nether Moon Sect, but Di Chen rejected him immediately, so now, Jing Lan was not confident that Di Chen would join either.
You Qin sighed: “Let’s go take a look first, if Di Chen really doesn’t want to join, then let’s kill him.”
When You Xiang and You Qin returned, they saw the clear fish standing motionlessly in front of the door, as if it was frozen in place.
You Xiang hurriedly walked over and frowned: “clear fish, why are you here?”
The clear fish hurriedly said: “You Xiang, there was an outsider in your room just now, I was afraid that he would harm you, so I fought with him. I did not expect him to be so strong, to be able to injure me so easily.”
Hearing this, You Qin and You Xiang looked at each other, originally thinking that no one would come here, but the two of them had neglected the clear fish, which liked You Xiang a lot and often came to find her. It was normal for him to see someone who was unfamiliar with You Xiang and get angry in her room, even a calm clear fish cannot enter.
“Where is he?” You Xiang hurriedly asked.
The clear fish shook its head and said, “He left. I don’t know where he went.”
She had already informed Di Chen not to run around randomly. This was the Nether Moon Sect, an outsider like him might be killed as if he was an intruder.
The two of them immediately headed in the direction the clear fish pointed, ignoring it.
Di Chen had always liked the beautiful scenery so he took a walk around. Along the way, he didn’t see anyone else, but after walking for around an hour, he saw a lake in front of him. The lake was very big and the lake was clear.
“Eh, there’s someone here?” Suddenly, Di Chen saw a pavilion in the middle of the lake, and inside it, a woman was reading a book. The woman was dressed in white, and looked extremely beautiful, as though she was a fairy in a painting.
Ning Fu seemed to not have noticed the arrival of someone as she focused on reading the book.
Di Chen noticed that the title of the novel that the woman was reading was < Sang Zi >. Di Chen remembered that this book was a love novel, and such novels were still considered welcome in the Martial Region Continent, especially when women loved to read them. Di Chen never thought that there would be people who could read such books in the Nether Moon Sect.
Di Chen thought that this place was very suitable for cultivation, he also took out a book, and this was the Soul Painting that Di Chen was unable to read, in this period of time, Di Chen’s cultivation had increased a little, but he did not know if he could read this book.
He tried to flip the book open for the night, but before he could see the first word, he felt a wave of dizziness. He immediately closed the book, but it seemed he was still unable to read it.
“Soul Painting?” Ning Fu saw the book in Di Chen’s hands with a glance, and asked curiously: “Where did you get this book?”
Di Chen originally thought that she didn’t notice him, and only now knew that she knew he was here, and just didn’t say anything.
“I bought it from a small academy,” Di Chen casually explained. To ordinary people, this book was just an ordinary book to read.
Ning Fu hesitated for a while before saying: “Let me see, what do you think?”
Di Chen immediately threw the book towards Ning Fu. When Ning Fu opened the book, she could faintly sense that there was a special kind of power within the book, but she could not capture it. Furthermore, this book was just an ordinary book to her.
She threw the book back to Di Chen and asked: “Did You Qin bring you here?”
The moment Ning Fu saw Di Chen, she knew his identity, and she was a little curious about why he would run all the way here by himself. In fact, she had already prepared to make a move earlier, but after seeing Di Chen take out the book, she gave up on the idea of killing him.
You Qin said that this man had defeated the Five Poisons Sect disciple, her strength must be not bad, she really wanted to know why such a person could read books.
Di Chen nodded: “Just bring me here to recuperate. I’ll be leaving very soon.”
Ning Fu laughed, thinking that this guy still did not know that she was not planning to let him leave, maybe You Qin had missed out on his plans.
Ning Fu asked curiously: “I just heard from You Qin that you helped her defeat the Five Poisons Sect disciple. I see that you do not have any Origin Energy in your body, so I assume you are a literati.”
Those with a bit of experience could immediately tell that Di Chen was literati, that was not a surprise.
“Yes,” Di Chen didn’t hide anything and said: “I was studying to participate in the Imperial examinations, but I didn’t expect to be able to become a literati, and regretfully lost.”
Ning Fu said in surprise: “Since you managed to cultivate to the literati realm, it means that you are very talented. How did you lose?”
Di Chen still couldn’t understand, he shook his head and said, “I don’t know either.
Until now, Di Chen had always felt that his essay was written very well. He had once guessed that it was because his essay was not favored by the selected officials that it was rejected, and of course, Di Chen had never asked the prince of Thousand Autumn Dynasty about it.
Ning Fu thought for a while, then said: “Why don’t you show me your essay on participating in the Imperial examinations?”
Di Chen thought that there was nothing to hide and he took out a pen and paper and broke off a small piece of ink stone. Just as he was about to grind the ink, Ning Fu walked over and smiled: “I’ll help you.”
Di Chen had always grinded ink for him when he wrote before, but after he changed it to Liu Jingjing, ever since he left the Famous Sword Academy, Di Chen sharpened ink by himself. Ning Ling was the first to say that he would grind ink, so Di Chen did not reject his.
Ning Fu carefully grinded the ink, her movements appearing to be rather proficient, after she finished grilling the ink, Di Chen took out the Sky Evolution Brush and dipped it in the ink, and then covered it with white paper to write her essay.
“The world is heartless, everything is like a rascal …”
Following that, Di Chen immersed himself in writing. After everything was done in one go, even if he were to write it again, Di Chen could still feel the power of a scholar surging into his body.
More than ten minutes later, Di Chen finally finished writing. He picked up the article, blew the ink dry, and handed it over to Ning Fu.
Ning Fu carefully savored Di Chen’s article. The article did not take long, but Ning Fu read it for a long time, as though she had to read every word for a long time. After reading it, she sat down again and did not say a word, as though she was immersed in thought.
“You wrote very well,” Ning Fu handed the article over to Di Chen, and laughed: “I’m afraid there are very few people in this Martial Region Continent that have as much literary talent as you do.”
Di Chen shook his head: “I have read the books of this year’s top scholar before, he is a person with even more literary talent than me.”
Ning Fu laughed and said: “But if it was in the Primordial Era, you would definitely have died a miserable death. I really admire you.”
In the ancient times, the heavens were revered and all sects respected the heavens. When Di Chen said that the heaven and earth were heartless, it was akin to defying the heavens.
Di Chen did not understand the meaning behind Ning Fu’s words. He only knew that this Ning Fu was definitely not simple.
“Oh right,” Ning Fu asked. “Can you give this article to me?”
Di Chen did not expect her to want this, and nodded.
After that, Di Chen chatted with Ning Fu for a long time, and Di Chen realised that this Ning Fu was actually also a talented woman. She had spent a lot of time on writing poems, and was also well versed in many books, such that even Di Chen felt that she was inferior to her, so she asked for advice. Talking with a talented person would also benefit Di Chen, Di Chen realized that while discussing those scholars with her, he had also participated in many of them, and Di Chen even felt that he had faintly broken through the 7th level of the Martial King realm.
Di Chen was curious about Ning Fu, and thought that he was unable to see through her cultivation level, but she was extremely proficient in reading and singing, she must not be an ordinary person.
“I hope that I will have a chance to chat with you in the future.”
The two talked for an hour. Ning Fu looked at the hour before she prepared to leave, and said: “I still have a lot of books in my collection. If you’re interested, you can stay here for a few more days.
Di Chen pinched his brows and thought for a moment, “But I still have some things that I want to do so I can leave as soon as possible …”
Hearing these words, Ning Fu’s face turned cold, and her killing intent surged. She and Di Chen had a very happy conversation, she wants Di Chen to stay, but you want to leave?
Di Chen seemed to not have noticed Ning Fu’s expression, and thought for a while, then said: “But I’m not in a hurry, I can go take a look.”
As a literati, he naturally felt excited towards those ancient books that he had never seen before. Di Chen also wanted to see more and was reluctant to leave.
Ning Fu revealed a smile after hearing Di Chen’s words, then turned and left.
Di Chen quietly watched Ning Fu’s back figure. He could see through her, but he felt that this woman was very terrifying. The last time he felt this way was when he saw Yu Xuanji.
