Everyday I Get up to See the Villain Stealing the Show 104

When Han Changsheng recovered, Hua Xiaoshuang had already gone out. 

This time really worried the leader. He originally selected the Ying Yue Sect as their target because it was notorious. The prestige earned from destroying the tumor that haunts the jianghu would certainly not be small. However, there was collusion between the Ying Yue Sect and Yue Peng. He just settled the matter of Yue Peng for An Yuan, and An Yuan’s attack on the Ying Yue Sect could be regarded as a justice and a blood debt repaid. But, because of Hua Xiaoshuang and Luo Ni’s entanglement, the matter turned into a mess again. 

According to what he said earlier, An Yuan was most probably in the Yuehua Sect now. It took a month to get to the Yuehua Sect from Xiushan, and another half a month to get to Kunlun Mountain from the Yuehua Sect. Time was too tight. In such a short time, where could he find another cancer for An Yuan to eradicate? Also, he hadn’t finished dealing with the Tianning Sect!

That night, Han Changsheng didn’t sleep well. He laid awake in the middle of the night, his mind full of thoughts of An Yuan and the Tianning Cult. He was sleepless nearly the entire night until the middle of the night when he was too tired to stay awake. He had a short dream, or maybe not a dream, but wishful thinking.

In his dream, he quickly recalled every bit of his time growing up in the Tianning Cult. Luo Xin taught him to practice martial arts. When he was ill, Du Yuefei tested medicine for him. Hua Xiaoshuang meticulously planned and carefully accounted for the cult affairs. Gu Mingxiao took care of his life. Xiaoqing and Xiaobai were with him every step of the way. 

Later, those people disappeared, and the person who accompanied him in the dream became An Yuan. 

The dream was short, but he felt like a long time had passed. He and An Yuan lived in a lonely, remote place. An Yuan was not beautiful like a mortal but like a heavenly immortal in the sky. He called his name, Changsheng, repeatedly. He said, Changsheng, this is my name for you. I hope you can live forever and stay by my side forever so that I will not be lonely. He said, Changsheng, people here have no worries or distress, but they are also very boring. I would like to go to the world and experience the human world, their happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy, and the vicissitudes of life. He said, Changsheng if I fall, what should you do? Forgive me for being selfish, I want you to watch me fall. At least in the end I will not be lonely. He said, Changsheng, you shouldn’t be like this. I can only keep a trace of your soul and send you to reincarnation. I will find you. What I owe you, I will pay you back on the road of reincarnation. 

At dawn, Han Changsheng woke up. When he first rose, he still vaguely remembered the dream, but when he wanted to explore it more carefully, he had already forgotten about it. 

In the following time, Han Changsheng not only didn’t vanish, he became more intense. What caused the whole Tianning Cult to be so noisy and in disarray was that everyone took a detour when they saw him. When he made the demonic cult leader follow in the emperor’s style and suddenly became very extravagant. There were a total of 72 people and horses in the Tianning Cult. First, he sent three people and horses down the mountain to collect strange flowers and plants for Du Yuefei. Then, he sent three more people and horses to the South China Sea to collect pearls for him. Then, he sent another twelve to go to Beishan to cut down and transport strong trees back to build the palace… In just a few days; he sent out more than half of the people out of Xiushan. 

In a few days, Han Changsheng would go down again. 

As he packed his luggage, Lu Qingqian and Lu Biabi ran in. “Master, where are you going?” 

Perfunctorily, Han Changsheng said, “I have something to go out and do, I’ll be back in two months.” 

Lu Biabi said, “I’m going too!” 

Han Changsheng refused without thinking. “No!”

Anxiously, Lu Qingqian asked, “Leader, where are you going? You’ve been abnormal ever since the last time you came back to the mountain. Were you charmed by a vixen fox-spirit?” 

Han Changsheng rolled his eyes and said, “I don’t want you to follow because I want you to complete the task I set you out to do. You can do what I told you to do about the Ying Yue Sect.” 

Lu Qingqian and Lu Baibi looked at each other and made a fuss. “No, we have to follow the leader.” 

Han Changsheng coaxed, “Listen to me. I will go this time, and I will come back after I have almost taken care of the affairs of the nation. From then on, I will stay in Xiushan and never leave. If you complete the task for me, you will also cultivate, and I will still like you most in the future.” 

The lethality of his sentence was so severe that the pair of foolish children were persuaded almost instantly. They stopped pestering Han Changsheng and said seriously, “We must complete the task.” 

Han Changsheng said, “Don’t come back if you haven’t finished it!” 

Lu Qingqian puffed his cheeks and Lu Baibi smiled. 

Han Changsheng deliberately asked Hua Xiaoshuang to dismiss the rest of the Ying Yue Sect. Now, he sent Lu Qingqian and Lu Baibi to summon the people back. It was not an easy task. Just asking about the members’ whereabouts. He was afraid they wouldn’t find them all in a year. He wanted to live a few more years, but he was afraid that if things dragged on for a long time, his plan would be revealed. He could only move forward. 

After dismissing the foolish children, Han Changsheng took his luggage and went down the mountain. Before long, he found his four hall masters standing on top of the mountain, watching him. Before, they didn’t allow Han Changsheng to go out because Han Changsheng was not yet up to par in his Kung Fu training and he had an impatient temper. If anything happened to him below the mountain, they would not be able to help. But now, Han Changsheng has grown up, and not even Luo Xin was his opponent. Han Changsheng suddenly found the air of a leader, and they no longer had a reason to stop him. 

Han Changsheng paused for a moment, silently retracted his gaze, and continued to walk down the mountain. 

“Leader!” Gu Mingxiao called to him loudly. 

Han Changsheng stopped, but he didn’t look back. 

“Come back soon,” Gu Mingxiao said, “I made winter wine, you can drink it when you get back.” 

Han Changsheng rubbed his nose and ran down the mountain.

After leaving Xiushan, Han Changsheng rode all the way to Yuehua Mountain. This was the second time he’d taken this road. The last time, he had just met An Yuan and indirectly killed Li Jiulong. He had had to go to the Yuehua Sect to replace him. That was the beginning of everything, and this time he was about to finish it all. 

Half a month later, Han Changsheng arrived at Yuehua Mountain. Today, the Yuehua Sect was no longer what it used to be. Even the patrolling disciples had disappeared at the foot of the mountain, and there were fewer people around the mountain in general. It was obvious the incident with Yue Peng dealt a great blow to the Yuehua Sect. He was afraid it would take more than a few years to recover itself. 

Han Changsheng went up the mountain unimpeded, but instead of going directly to the front entrance, he sneaked into the Peach Blossom Valley behind the mountain. This place was where Elder Lan Fang once practiced, but now it stood empty, without traces of anyone. Han Changsheng wandered around in the Peach Blossom Valley and finally found a cat curled up to sleep on Elder Lan Fang’s tomb. 

“Little stinky egg!” Han Changsheng called. 

The little stinky egg yawned lazily. When he looked back, he saw Han Changsheng, and suddenly became energetic. He jumped to Han Changsheng’s feet and rubbed affectionately against his feet. 

Han Changsheng held him in his arms with a smile. “How have you been recently?” 

The little stinky egg said, “Lan Fang is dead. You and An Yuan aren’t here. There are only mediocre people on the mountain. They don’t even have decent Qi. They are so boring.” 

Han Changsheng asked strangely, “Didn’t An Yuan come back?” 

The little stinky egg licked his fingers. “He came back a while ago, stayed for a month before he left just two days ago. It seems that he had to go to Kunlun Mountain to find someone. Why are you looking for him?”

Han Changsheng was silent. Unexpectedly, An Yuan could not wait to go to Kunlun Mountain. 

“Little stinky egg.” Han Changsheng’s expression became serious as he held the little stinky egg in front of him. Looking at him, he said, “You must accompany me to leave. I have something to entrust you to do.” 

The little stinky egg said, “I still plan to cultivate immortals. I don’t want to do harm to anyone.” 

Han Changsheng laughed. “No, it’s a matter of helping the immortal lord An Yuan survive the catastrophe, nothing more. When the immortal lord succeeds in the trials, he will be grateful for you. Maybe you will absorb some immortal lord Qi and ascend to be an immortal yourself.” 

The little stinky egg licked his paw, but he didn’t care too much. “What’s the matter?” 

Han Changsheng stuffed the little stinky egg into his arms. “You go first, and you will know when you see An Yuan.” 

Since An Yuan was gone, it was useless to stay in the Yuehua Sect. Han Changsheng took the little stinky egg and prepared to leave. After two steps, he returned to the tomb of Elder Lan Fang, and untied the Long Yin sword he had brought and placed it in front of the tombstone. It belonged to the Yuehua Sect. When the Yuehua Sect found it, they would naturally take it away.

“Let’s go.”
