Chapter 259 Here Comes The Apprentice

A thread of transparent fish wire comes into the room through the window.

It passes by Lin Luodong’s face and goes further into the room. The fish wire is thin and long. If Lin and Huang weren’t staring at the window, they wouldn’t even notice it.

Huang Weijian sees from Lin Luodong’s expression that Lin already knows who has come. Huang is disappointed because his grandfather doesn’t come.

The fish wire keeps going and it slips outside through the door. Soon, the sound of struggling comes from the outside and everything goes into silence.

Has the guard been taken care of? Lin Luodong stares at the window with light in his eyes. A golden light flashed and the iron bars on the window are cut off like they are made of Tofu. A thin and soft hand grabs the iron in order not to make a noise. Li Xi’er pops her head out and waves to them.

The shadow of the cherry bay sways in the wind. The yard where the vampires are having a wine party is near. Lin Luodong can’t imagine how Li Xi’er managed to sneak inside without the vampires noticing. Li Xi’er is always careless, but she is certainly brave!

When Yuan Ye pops his head out, Lin Luodong realizes what this is about. Is his sister’s new apprentice the one to be thanked?

Yuan Ye waves to Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian, then they come to themselves and walk to the window. The window is small, yet Yuan Ye manages to jump inside through it. He opens the door. The vampire guard is strapped tightly and he has passed out. Yuan Ye nods to Li Xi’er. Li moves her finger and the fish wire comes back to her wrist.

Let’s go. Yuan Ye pours a bag of powder on Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian and tells them to go.

The fish wire goes out from Li Xi’er’s wrist and entangles around the bedpost in the room. Li grabs Huang Weijian first instead of Lin Luodong!

Huang is surprised. Shouldn’t Li take Luodong out first?

However, Huang’s wrist in already in Li’s hand. She jumps down from the fifth floor with the fish wire on her wrist. The wind blows on Huang’s face and he can smell the fragrance of the cherry bay. The monsters are having a party in the yard and they’re a few trees away. Huang Weijian can smell the disgusting odour of the vampires. Normally, vampires have sharp sense and they should be able to feel their presence. Is it because of the bag of powder?

While thinking about this, Huang Weijian has got out of the high walls along with Li Xi’er. A young cultivator who is strange to Huang is waiting there. Li Xi’er puts Huang on the ground and jumps back in.

Huang Weijian tries to talk to the young cultivator but only discovers that the man is sweating. He is casting a strange spell with his hands and he is directing the abnormal white mist in the yard. The white mist covers Li’s body. Is this why the monsters can’t sense their presence? Huang Weijian is smart. Soon he understands how this works. The white mist can hide their presence and the powder is used to cover their smell. Also, Li’s magical fish wire is quite useful.

Huang Weijian thinks for a while and takes out his bald pen as preparation. The vampires had served him, but the bald pen was so shabby that they didn’t take it away. It’s just a shame that they’ve torn Huang’s old bag apart.

It’s like time is slowing down. Xiao Xiaomu focus on controlling the white mist and Huang Weijian stares at the tall walls vigilantly. Why are the three of them not coming out yet?

Then Huang Weijian realizes that the noise and laughter at the other side of the wall are gone. Is the party over?

Huang Weijian waves his bald pen and jumps onto the wall.

The mist is thick. Huang looks into the yard. Through the window without the iron bars, three people are running around, hiding from a bat in the air.

The bald pen flies out of Huang’s hand like it has seen a ghost. It rushes at the bat. Meanwhile, the pen is writing Chu Shi Biao, the famous article written by Zhuge Liang, on its own…!

“Xi’er, you guys go!” Lin Luodong knows that he is slowing Li and Yuan down. He pushes Li Xi’er in a hurry.

Yuan Ye smiles bitterly. A dozen of vampires have gathered under the window. It’s too late for them to leave.

The bald pen flies to the bat. The bat turns around and doesn’t take the pen seriously. Soon, the bald pen draws the bat’s attention. It has finished writing half of the article and shining characters are flowing out of the tip of the pen. A web appears and traps the bat.

The stink of burning meat comes. The bat is burnt by the golden web. Crystal would be so surprised if she were here to see this.

The bat, which doesn’t take the pen seriously, suffers immediately. The surrounding vampires are all startled. Yuan Ye knows that this is the one and only chance. He takes out two porcelain bottles and smashes them on the floor. The powder is everywhere. The white mist around them helps the powder spread. The vampires start to feel sleepy.

Their eyelids become heavy and they really want to have a good sleep. The vampires push each other and try to remain sober.

“Let’s go!”

Yuan Ye pushes Lin Luodong to Li Xi’er. Li wants to take Yuan Ye along but Yuan shakes his head. Li Xi’er stamps her feet and swings out of the room with Lin Luodong.

The white mist makes their hair wet. The wind blowing on her face is so cold. Li Xi’er drags the fish wire and swings higher and higher, and she lands on the tall wall!

The light of the sword flashes behind her. Li Xi’er looks back and hears the screams of the vampires. Lin Luoran looks out through the window. Of course, the mist can’t block her view. Lin sees that Li Xi’er is standing on the wall with Lin Luodong in her arms and Huang Weijian’s bald pen has trapped the bat for now. The vampires are all fluttering their wings. Yuan Ye is holding a shiny flying sword, waving at the black vampire wings.

“What a mess!” Lin Luoran says in a low voice. In fact, she is smiling gently. How did the three of them make it to the yard?

Crystal says by Lin’s side, “Is this your apprentice? He doesn’t seem to be very strong.”

Lin Luoran smiles. Among the three of them, Li Xi’er is the most powerful one. It’s already out of Lin’s surprise that they’ve managed to sneak into the yard. Xiao Xiaomu is so young, and Li Xi’er is always careless and naïve. Will it be him? Her new apprentice Yuan Ye…? Lin Luoran looks at Yuan Ye who is fighting with the vampires. Yuan Ye is composed. He should be a nice assistant if his level of cultivation is elevated.

Vampires fly up to pull Li Xi’er and Lin Luodong down. Lin Luoran moves her fingers and a beam of fire rushes out of her fingertip. The fire goes through the mist and passes by the tip of the nose of a vampire. The burning fire kicks the vampire away.

Fire is the only thing that can end the lives of vampires. In medieval times, the European church burnt millions of vampires. All the vampires in the yard are frightened by Lin’s powerful fire.

The beam of fire is like a shield. The vampires don’t know whether they should attack or not. It’s like that the fire is intelligent and it gets higher as the vampires fly up.

Li Xi’er hears Lin Luoran’s voice in her head. Lin is telling her to calm down from the panic.

“You leave with the boys. Don’t worry about Yuan Ye and me.”

Li Xi’er bits her lips and jumps down the wall with Lin Luodong. Xiao Xiaomu is exerting himself to hold the white mist. Li tells Xiao to disperse the white mist. The four of them run to the car by the roadside. The fire is dying out and the golden web is about to break. The bald pen gives up fighting with the bat and flies back to Huang Weijian.

The bat gets angry and it wants to pursue. However, Lin Luoran stares at the bat and her cold eyes make the bat stop chasing.

Is it contempt? Does the female cultivator look down upon me? The bat thinks.

Lin Luoran combs her messy hair with her hand and the bead on her wrist glows. The bat is startled.

Lin Luoran ignores the bat. She stops looking at Yuan Ye and steps back from the window.

The fragrance of wine is all over the room. Lin Luoran has drunk two bottles of wine with Crystal and Riddick.

“Don’t you care about him?” Crystal has a feeling that Lin Luoran is composed like a pool of dead water and she has become so hard to understand.

Lin Luoran’s stomach is full of wine. She feels relaxed that Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian are safe now, but at the same time, she is hungry. The steak on her plate is cold. She touches the steak and heats it up. The fragrance of meat comes again. Riddick can’t help smiling when he sees that Crystal has become speechless.

Lin Luoran finishes eating the steak and she has two more pieces of cake. When she is wiping her mouth, the door of the room is pushed open. Yuan Ye is pushed inside.

“How did you lose?” Lin Luoran knows what Yuan is thinking about from his expressions.

Emmm?

Yuan Ye gets his spirit up and answers, “Exhaustion!”

Lin Luoran nods. Yuan Ye feels that he had regained his energy. Now, Crystal and Riddick look terrible.

It’s like that Lin Luoran wants them to look graver. She says slowly, “I’ve thought about your suggestions… And I don’t agree.”
