Chapter 959: The Leader’s Teaching (4)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qingxu Sect?
The sect leader looked at his disciples.
What is the Qingxu Sect?
Did you all annihilate some sect behind my back?
Everyone: “…”
No, we didn’t!
The sect leader sneered. “Don’t blame everything on us.”
The round-faced man said with a loud and clear voice, “If you didn’t do it, why did the disciples from Qingxu Sect die from the Demonic Sect’s martial arts skills?”
The sect leader smiled coldly. “If a person knows our skills, does it mean that he or she is from the Demonic Sect?”
The round-faced man said, “Hmph, why would someone want to frame you all?”
The sect leader replied, “The Demonic Sect means what we say. We are not like the hypocrites from the righteous clans.”
The round-faced man said, “Who are you calling hypocrites?”
Just as the two of them were about to start quarreling, Ming Shu raised her hand.
“I don’t care if you annihilate them or not. Bring the Chef King out. We can talk over food.”
The sect leader: “…”
The round-faced man: “…”
…
An hour later…
The round-faced man sat at the dining table and looked at the dishes that were brought up with a stunned expression.
Something was wrong.
Weren’t they here to seek justice for the Qingxu Sect? Why were they having a meal with the sect leader of the Demonic Sect?
The Chef King lived up to his name. Ming Shu felt that she must bring the Chef King back with her.
Ming Shu finished her meal and had some fruits as desserts. She lifted her leg.
“Since you all didn’t annihilate the Qingxu Sect, you can just give me the cook and I will keep those people who didn’t offer any tribute to me from finding you for trouble and give you time to find the real culprit.”
The sect leader: ???
Is this little girl here for the Chef King?
Who are those people that didn’t offer tribute to her?
“Why should I listen to you?” The sect leader finally remembered that he was the sect leader of the Demonic Sect.
“If you don’t listen to me, I will ask people to destroy your headquarters. I only brought my men with me this time. However, the next time…” Ming Shu smiled. “If I can come once, I can come again.”
The sect leader bore with her because of this.
If she could fight her way up, it meant that she or the people around her had the ability.
“You believe me?” The sect leader looked at Ming Shu strangely.
No one from the righteous clan would listen to them.
“I don’t.”
“…”
“But, you have the Chef King so you are right.” I knew the storyline, you idiot.
The idiot couldn’t regain his senses for a while.
She really came for the Chef King?
The sect leader felt stifled. “What if I don’t agree?” If the Pugilist World knew that their Alliance Master colluded with the Demonic Sect because of the Chef King… interesting things would happen.
Ming Shu smiled brightly. Her voice was gentle and soft. “Then, I will save the world and annihilate the Demonic Sect.”
The sect leader: “…”
The sect leader looked at the Chef King.
The Chef King was a fat man. He was about the size of two Ming Shus. He looked down at the floor and tried to erase his presence.
He was in a daze too.
He was just a cook.
The sect leader pondered for a moment and said, “Since you like him, you can have the Chef King. As for the Qingxu Sect, I will investigate and give you an answer soon. However, you must make sure that no one finds me for trouble during this period of time.”
This was the first time he talked so calmly with someone from the righteous clans.
Of course, if this Alliance Master didn’t tie up his disciples, it would be even better.
“Okay.” Ming Shu smiled and said, “However, if you can’t find the culprit within a month, I will not be able to help you anymore. I will not return the chef to you, either.”
The sect leader: “…”
…
After they left the Demonic Sect, the round-faced man kept telling Ming Shu his opinion. “Was this really not done by the Demonic Sect? They are good at talking so you can’t be fooled by them.”
“They didn’t do it.”
Qingxu Sect was just a small sect. Why would the Demonic Sect annihilate a small sect that had nothing to do with them? Were they bored?
“How do you know?”
Ming Shu raised her head and looked at the sky. “I predicted…”
The round-faced man raised his head curiously. When did his Alliance Master learn this skill?
“It is going to rain.”
“Hah?”
As expected, after they walked for some distance, it started to rain. They found a place to shelter from the rain. The round-faced man asked Ming Shu, “Alliance Master, how are we going to… help the Demonic Sect?”
Ming Shu ate the barbecued meat that the Chef King made for her happily. “Is there any news that would perk everyone’s attention?”
The round-faced man didn’t understand.
Ming Shu added on, “For instance, things like treasures, secret scriptures…”
If there was no legend in the Pugilist World, it would not be a real Pugilist World.
The round-faced man finally understood what Ming Shu was trying to say. His hands shook. “Alliance Master… are you joking?”
There were a lot of rumors but they couldn’t just randomly spread a rumor like this.
What if people realized that they were fooled? The reputation of the Alliance Master Mansion would be tarnished.
“We will do it this way. Make sure that they are unable to find the Demonic Sect for trouble within this month.” Ming Shu patted the round-faced man. “All the best. I’m sure you can do it.”
The round-faced man: “…” He didn’t want her to believe in him. Sob.
The round-faced man glanced at the Chef King who pretended to not hear anything and focused on barbecuing meat.
So, what was the main purpose of this trip?
Didn’t she tell us to take our weapons and administer justice?
Why did they collude with the Demonic Sect and even take the Chef King back from the Demonic Sect? Now, they were going to spread rumors to fool the heroes in the Pugilist World. Trouble would arise!
“Alliance Master, listen to me…”
…
Ming Shu brought the Chef King back to the Alliance Master Mansion.
The news of the destruction of the Qingxu Sect had already spread in the Pugilist World. Everyone knew how cruel and ruthless the Demonic Sect was. Some heroes had spoken and said that they wanted to punish the evil-doers.
Many people sent letters to the Alliance Master Mansion and asked for the Alliance Master’s opinion.
If it was the past, these people would come personally to the mansion and pay their respects to the Alliance Master.
Now, they just sent her letters. This showed that they didn’t take the Alliance Master seriously.
The Alliance Master inherited the position. To them, it meant that the Alliance Master was not worth their respect.
“Alliance Master, you are back.”
“Alliance Master.”
“Alliance Master…”
Ming Shu asked the round-faced man to start working on spreading the rumors. She reminded him to do it secretly and not let anyone find out that the Alliance Master Mansion spread the rumors.
Ming Shu pa.s.sed the Chef King to the servants.
“Who is this?” Ming Shu looked at the boy who stood out among the servants.
The boy looked down and stood there nervously. He appeared anxious and uncomfortable in this new environment.
“Alliance Master, this is the new chef.” The kitchen said that the Alliance Master was still growing and ate a lot of food recently. Hence, they needed another chef to make new dishes for the Alliance Master.
This boy came to offer his service so the servants were prepared to take him in and let him try out the position first. If he could do the job, they would let him stay.
They didn’t expect to meet the Alliance Master.
Ming Shu sized up the boy and smiled. She said, “I have gotten the Chef King so I don’t need another chef. I can’t afford to keep him here. Get him out.”
The boy suddenly raised his head. His face was revealed. He was still young so his features were still growing. However, his face was already very handsome.
The boy was agitated. “Alliance Master, I can do other things too. Don’t chase me away. Something… happened in my family. I have nowhere to go now. Please keep me.”
“What can you do?”
“I, I…” The boy got frustrated. “I can do anything.”
