Chapter 24: The Clownish Master and Servant

  "Master, after this wave of assassins is dealt with, there will be a period of quiet before the next wave appears. What are your plans for that time?" Shen Fei asked tentatively.

  Young Cat's eyes flashed: "Proceed to Shu Mountain as planned."

  He was born in Shu Mountain, but six years ago, after his mother's sudden death, Shu Mountain did not react at all. He wanted to know why and what had happened that made Shu Mountain abandon his mother, and also ignore him.

  If there's an inside story behind this, that's fine; but if it's just Shushan abandoning him unilaterally, he doesn't mind destroying the Taoist tradition of Shushan.

  Shen Fei nodded in understanding.

  Apart from what happened after the Cloud Retreat, now the only things his master wants to do are to avenge and investigate Shu Shan. Of course, he has no idea that his own master's dark transformation level has risen several levels again.

  "How is Yun Shui now?" The young man's voice became even colder than before, his tone without the slightest fluctuation, neither fast nor slow, neither happy nor sad.

  It seems that the person he mentioned is just an ordinary stranger.

  Shen Fei bowed slightly and said: "Your Highness is a rare talent in alchemy, Empress Ouyang intends to let Your Highness enter the Dan Sect."

  "What a great lord? Whose great lord is he?" The young man whispered softly, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

  Shen Fei stood quietly without responding, because some things were not for him to say, and the youth didn't need his answer either.

  The sky is cut off by the distant water, with a thousand miles of clouds; a horizontal strip of clear sky appears.

  Cloud water! Cloud mist! That's her mother's name. But...

  Hah!

  Yun Leng's sarcastic cold smile, that person was his brother whom he regarded as family, but who would have thought that he had ulterior motives and tried every means to put him to death.

  Affection is also as thin as this, what else can be trusted in this world? A fleeting confusion flashed through Yunlan's dark eyes, only to be replaced by endless darkness and coldness.

  He doesn't need to be believed in, he only needs to rule over others and be feared by them. As for trust, it's laughable!

  A gust of wind blew up Yun Luan's hair, a strand of black hair brushed across the young man's jade-like face, and he had a kind of silly and innocent feeling.

  Shen Fei curled his lips, clearly having a lot to say about his master's incredibly deceptive appearance. Sensing Yunlan's somewhat desolate mood, Shen Fei shook his head and seemed to think of something, saying in a low voice: "Master, I heard that this morning, Little Tang found her lost pet after searching for it all morning."

  Seeing the master of the house secretly pricking up his ears to eavesdrop, Shen Fei cleared his throat and continued: "Miss Tang said that if she finds her own runaway pet, it will definitely have its legs broken and be buried alive."

  Shen Fei gave a thumbs up to that lovely little girl, and it was provocative that the master of his house was still alive. Of course, when Shen Fei really saw Tang Xin, he wanted to find a crooked neck tree to hang himself to death, and scolded himself for being blind at first to think this child was lovely. This is another story though.

  As soon as the words fell, Shen Fei clearly felt that the air around him was stagnant for an instant. A moment later, Yun Luan's furious voice like thunder rang out: "That damned stinky girl, this young master will definitely make her die, no, will definitely make her worse than dead. That damned stinky girl is really bold and reckless, despicable! Despicable!!"

  "Who is her darling? She is the king's darling, but still a bit short of it. It's really beyond words, shameless, and doesn't know how to advance or retreat..."

  Shen Fei shrunk his neck and tried to make his presence as invisible as air, lest the master of the house vent his anger on him.

  The master of the house was already speechless with rage at this point, and even the words "Ben Wang" had slipped out, it seemed he needed to worry about that little girl.

  "Shen Fei, send someone to keep an eye on that stinky little girl. I'd like to see how long that short and smelly little girl can be so arrogant." Yun Lan seemed to have been enraged, her tone extremely cold and disregarding her identity as she quarreled with a little servant girl.

  "......Yes, master." Can't you be more impressive? Hiding here and throwing a tantrum is really pathetic. If you have the guts, go vent your anger at that little girl instead.

  It was as if Yunlan knew what Shenfei was thinking, and she pursed her lips, her fingertips brushing against the hem of her robe. The black luxurious brocade robe instantly transformed into a noble purple color.

  Yun Luan raised his head, slowly curving his lips into a brilliant arc. His own profound and icy black eyes suddenly became warm and elegant, giving off a gentle feeling like a spring breeze. The two small tiger teeth in his mouth poked out, adding a hint of childishness to Yun Luan's usual warmth, instantly captivating Shen Fei's rough and awkward heart.

  If it weren't for Yun Lian's usual accumulation of prestige being extremely deep, Shen Fei would have already pounced on him long ago.

  Watching Yun Leng transform in an instant from a cool and arrogant appearance to that of a noble young master, Shen Fei felt as if he had been slapped in the face by the universe. The only thought in his mind was: My master is split personality, my master is split personality...

  "From today on, I am... Tang Wan of Luochuan." Yunlan's voice was no longer icy and detached, but rather a clear and mellow tone, like the gentle collision of jade stones. He looked every bit the elegant young master from a wealthy family. However, he still hesitated for a moment over his alias.

  Shen Fei: "......" His family's master thought for half a day, and the name he came up with was still not that little girl's Wan Zi Ah. Moreover, she even shared the same surname as that little girl, so they might as well just get married. The small person in Shen Fei's heart rolled his eyes wildly, and he was somewhat angry at his family's master for being so uncompetitive.

  If Tang Xin knew that it was because of her that the villainous master didn't use his pseudonym from the original work, but instead chose a new one, making it even harder for her to find him, she would probably be so angry that she'd spit blood.

  Shen Fei was a bit conflicted about his master's changing personality, but he still cooperated and responded: "Yes, young master."

  "Very well," Yun Leng nodded in satisfaction, the smile on his face becoming radiant, revealing a sharp little tiger tooth: "This young master will go and meet that stinky girl, to see who can outdo whom, humph." Yun Leng glared with big cat-like eyes, looking like an innocent mischievous child.

  Shen Fei: "......" Master, you are just a spoiled brat!

  Shen Fei couldn't help but pour cold water and said, "Young Master, what do you plan to do when you see Miss Tang? She has threatened to break your legs and bury you alive."

  Yun Leng's face stiffened, and then he shouted in a flustered tone: "This young master is not that laborer's cat cub now! Shen Fei, you're getting too bold, go back to the outhouse for five days and nights!"

  Shen Fei cursed under his breath and couldn't help but slap himself hard on the ear, why was this foul-mouthed disease of his always incurable? Had it already become a terminal illness? He didn't want to give up treatment!

  "Cough, Master, Miss Tang and the others probably won't be staying here for long." Shen Fei reminded with a wry smile.

  Yunlan nodded, he had been with Tang Xin for a few days and already knew that the stinky girl was also going to Shu Mountain. When they arrived at Shu Mountain, he would teach that ignorant and arrogant girl a lesson.
