Chapter 44: Such an adorable person, I really want to hide you somewhere only I know.

Translator: DragonRider

"Mu Chen, do you want to participate in the pill concocting competition?"

"Mu Chen, let's duke it out!"

"It's said that your master defeated my father a hundred years ago and won the title of 'the best pill alchemist in the world'. This time I'm gonna seize the reputation back."

"All pill alchemists gather together for the competition. You really have no interest in it?"

"Mu Chen..."

Mu Chen, "...you are so annoying!"

According to Mu Chen's temper, he would just frown and walk off toward those he had no interest. Now he just said "annoying", which proved how aggravating the man was.

Gu Yunjue was intended to intervene, but he just got spirit to enjoy the lively expression on Mu Chen's irritated face. 'It's so lucky to see my sweetheart having so many kinds of expressions!' he thought. Mu Chen was always too indifferent, which gave him a delusion that master didn't belong here and would someday ignore all worldly affairs and fly away in a blink.

Gu Yunjue had already heard about the pill concocting competition. No wonder the devil realm was busy in capturing pill alchemists. It turned out father wanted to seize this opportunity to take in some talents for his personal benefits. He was so eager to survive, but he'd killed too many innocent people. In order to hide his inner devil from the heaven, he finally got the idea to possess the body of his closest kin to retake charge of the devil realm in the future.

The devil robbed what he wanted all the time. Humans, in his eyes, were just tools to be used. Back when he wanted a son, he just captured so many beautiful women to bear children and never gave their lives a damn.

As Gu Yunjue thought of that, a trace of mockery flashed beneath his eyes, and it was hard to tell whether he was mocking his devil father or how he himself was born.

Seeing Mu Chen was not a bit tempted, Bo Jinyu gritted his teeth as if he had made a tough decision and whispered, "Friendly reminder—there are quite generous awards!"

Mu Chen speeded up and meant to get rid of him. Unfortunately, although Bo Jinyu might have nothing to match Mu Chen, the no named blanket beneath him should help to keep pace with Mu Chen's flying sword, "The awards include blue lotus, Collecting-soul and Cultivating-body Grass, Demon King's Horn, Green-glass and Red-fire Ding, and Jade Zoysia Pungens..."

Jade Zoysia Pundens?!

Mu Chen stopped abruptly, while Bo Jinyu had exceeded for miles and hastened to turn around before he timely responded to Mu Chen's crash-stop. The master and the servant were just like two lanterns floating in the air, trembling as they flew.

Mu Chen turned his head with slight disdain for their poor taste, recalling that in his last life he had obtained Jade Zoysia Pundens by killing an evil pill alchemist within a secret boundary.

'The pill alchemist won Jade Zoysia Pundens in the Pill Concocting Competition?'

"If master is interested, we can go there to have a look." Gu Yunjue uttered in a sudden, his words full of irrepressible favor, which certainly sounded obedient as to Mu Chen. Although Gu Yunjue didn't mind robbing the herb over, he did want to walk around with his master. Restrained by the master-disciple relationship within Lofty Cloudy Sect, he had to be cautious when doing something because there always were some people standing in his way. 'Little master is quite blank and dull at that kind of stuff. If we are out...' Gu Yunjue snickered more obviously, but what he'd thought about was known to nobody.
