Chapter 16: A World That Judges by Appearance

Han Queqian did feel a little guilty, but the more she spoke, the more confident she became. That was right—everything she had said was perfectly reasonable. If so, what did she have to feel guilty about?

Han Queqian held out her hand and placed it before Leng Feng.

Yet even if someone beat Leng Feng to death, he would never believe that Han Queqian had somehow, by sheer accident, given his master pointers! With a cold snort, Leng Feng turned his head away and completely ignored the hand she had extended.

“Fine. Since you refuse to pay, I won’t take the blame if your master fails to achieve enlightenment and advance his cultivation! Hmph! If I wake your master and ruin his enlightenment, don’t come crying to me later!”

With an indignant snort, Han Queqian turned her head aside as though Leng Feng had grievously mistreated her. She shouted as she turned around, then stomped toward the inner hall, one heavy step after another.

Seeing her act this way—and considering how long and loudly she had been making a scene—while his master still had not come out, Leng Feng began to suspect that Han Queqian might truly be telling the truth. Fine, fine. Wasn’t it only nine hundred gold coins? It was nothing worth making a fuss over!

“Stop! I’ll pay!”

Better to believe it than risk dismissing it. If his master’s enlightenment were truly interrupted, achieving enlightenment again next time would be extraordinarily difficult. Besides, Han Queqian looked so solemn that perhaps there really was something to it.

Leng Feng was extremely unwilling to be extorted by Han Queqian, but he could only grit his teeth and shout at her. Hearing that beautiful promise, Han Queqian flashed a triumphant smile and darted forward.

Before Leng Feng’s eyes, her figure blurred, and she was suddenly standing right in front of him. She stretched out her hand, ready to take the gold from his pocket.

Nine hundred gold coins meant nothing to Leng Feng. It might not even cover the cost of a single fine meal. Thinking this, he gritted his teeth, reached into his spatial ring, and produced a large bag of gold, placing it before Han Queqian.

“Nine hundred gold coins. Take them!”

Han Queqian was immensely pleased. She had known it—Leng Feng might have a cold face, but his heart was warm. When it came to his master, especially something this important, he was bound to give in! Though Han Queqian knew that what she was doing was rather unscrupulous,

the money was right in front of her, and she had no choice but to resort to a few tricks. Besides, if she did not use such methods, what would she do about her injuries?

“Thank you for your patronage! Since you’re being so sensible, fine. Your master only achieved enlightenment after watching my sword technique. I’ll demonstrate it for you free of charge, so you won’t feel cheated. How about that?”

Han Queqian cheerfully accepted the gold coins, watching the pile glitter. She would need even more money in the days ahead, and judging by how readily Leng Feng had produced nine hundred gold coins,

he clearly had a considerable fortune! Since that was the case, easing their relationship a little seemed like an excellent idea.

“No need! If you would simply get out of my sight at once, I would be grateful enough!”

Once again, Leng Feng treated Han Queqian’s good intentions as though they were worthless!

Upon hearing this, Han Queqian immediately pouted, her face filled with displeasure. “If you don’t want it, then forget it! One day, you’ll come begging me for help! And you—why do you always wear such a gloomy expression? Who are you trying to scare with that face? Have you forgotten what I told you before?

“You have to smile—smile more! Otherwise, you’ll grow old easily! This is a world that judges people by their looks, and even more so a world that adores adorable young men…”

Please give me a few recommendation votes! Is that really so difficult?
