Bold Witch, Don’T Hurt My Husband

Chapter 33: My Three Reflections

The woman's name is Zhong Yue, one of the few people Xia Fan knows in the Demon Sect.

Having been in the Demon Sect for over ten years, no matter how deep or shallow his involvement, he would always come across a few people.

And it was because of her that Xia Fan realized that being in the Demon Sect didn't necessarily mean wearing all black, it was just a dislike for white clothing.

However, if there were important matters, the elders of the Demon Sect would still dress in black, as if it had become a consensus.

Just like the Buddhist Gate's kasaya, the Confucian robes, the Celestial Fragrance Gate's white veils, and the Dao Sect's Dao robes, only the Four Seas Pavilion and the Ten Thousand Sword Mountain didn't have distinctive clothing characteristics. However, the temperament of sword cultivators and the aura of the wealthy were equally evident, which belonged to the unique characteristics of each sect.

He and Zhong Yue had known each other for several years. When he was still a mortal, Zhong Yue was already somewhat famous within the sect and was considered outstanding among the young disciples.

But over the years, his cultivation had already caught up with her, he just hadn't revealed it.

And because Xia Fan appeared young and had a low cultivation level, Zhong Yue thought he was a new disciple and called him junior brother. He also didn't want to expose his identity, as he would have no friends in the Demon Sect if he did.

"If you don't work hard, do you still expect me, senior sister, to help you? Dream on! If you encounter someone like Li Pangzi again, I won't care about you!" Zhong Yue scolded.

That Li Pangzi she mentioned had a dispute with Xia Fan two years ago because he thought highly of himself for joining the sect early and having a high cultivation level.

If it weren't for Zhong Yue stepping in and teaching him a lesson, he would have called for his Yunjian sword to attack. Xia Fan didn't even consider him a significant character.

But because of that incident, Li Pangzi had been holding a grudge and became increasingly displeased with Xia Fan.

Where there are people, there is a world of strife. Not to mention the Demon Sect, even the seemingly righteous Dao Sect is filled with various internal conflicts. It's unexpected that even in cultivation, there is competition.

"Don't worry, senior sister, I don't care about that Li Pangzi!" Xia Fan laughed.

"You're just bragging! By the way, junior brother, now that your cultivation has reached the Transcendent Mortal stage, do you want to go down the mountain with senior sister? I heard that there are demons causing trouble in Yingzhou recently, and the sect has sent out missions. Don't worry, senior sister will protect you!" Zhong Yue asked.

Being able to go down the mountain to gain experience is the minimum standard for Transcendent Mortals in the sect. After all, cultivation also requires resources, and the sect cannot unconditionally provide unlimited resources. Therefore, the majority of resources must be obtained through one's own efforts.

Although there are many cultivators among the various countries, it is still a drop in the bucket compared to the size of the land. Coupled with the fact that the world is not yet peaceful, there are often times when they need to seek help from the major sects.

For the sect, going out to gain experience is also essential. After all, no cultivator can reach the peak by staying at home and working alone. Plus, there is also compensation, so both sides get what they need.

"Go down the mountain?"

Hearing this, Xia Fan's eyes lit up. He had been in the sect for over ten years and had long wanted to go out and explore. Moreover, his cultivation had already reached the peak of the Transcendent Mortal stage, which according to Xiao Fengshan's opinion, should be enough. Naturally, he was tempted.

"Yes, don't worry, junior brother. I have gone down the mountain more than once. There won't be any danger!" Zhong Yue reassured.

Faced with such temptation, Xia Fan naturally felt tempted, but he didn't forget his identity. He needed to discuss this matter with his own wife.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to?" Zhong Yue asked, puzzled.

After all, in her eyes, Xia Fan was just an ordinary disciple. Shouldn't he be happy to have a senior sister like her to accompany him on his journey?

After all, every disciple of the Demon Sect, regardless of who they are, must go out and gain experience, regardless of life or death.

As long as they don't encounter situations where the strong bully the weak, the Demon Sect rarely interferes. Even if someone dies outside, it's because they didn't have enough skill, so it's only natural.

After all, if someone clearly has low strength but still provokes enemies with much higher cultivation, they are simply foolish and not worth cultivating.

"I'm willing, but let me think about it overnight. I'll give you an answer tomorrow," she said.

"Alright, I'll wait for your message tomorrow. We'll leave in two days!"

Seeing that he seemed to have something difficult to express, Zhong Yue naturally didn't ask further. She found her junior brother quite pleasing to the eye, not only because he had a good appearance, but also because he spoke wittily. Most importantly, he had excellent culinary skills.

Although his cultivation level was not high at the moment, he had great talent, and his future achievements would not be too low. Although she called herself his senior sister, they were only a few years apart in age, and perhaps in the future, she could find a suitable husband for herself.

After informing him of this news, Zhong Yue and Xia Fan chatted for a while before leaving. After all, they still needed to make some preparations before leaving the mountain.

After Zhong Yue left, Xia Fan couldn't help but sigh. How could he convince his wife to let him leave the mountain and explore?

The main issue was that his cultivation had reached a bottleneck. Even if he possessed the body of Liu Shifei, he still couldn't break through this bottleneck and continue to exert his full potential.

In the afternoon, as Xia Fan leisurely walked back, he was suddenly stopped by two people.

"Oh, isn't this the little white-faced guy who relies on women? Where's Zhong Yue?"

The person who spoke was none other than Li Pangzi, with his lackey by his side.

Li Pangzi had some background. His father was an official in the Outer Sect, and he himself had decent talent. He used his connections to become a disciple of an elder, and he was used to being arrogant towards ordinary disciples.

Hearing this, Xia Fan couldn't help but glance at the two of them and said, "Who the fuck are you?"

He immediately used a classic line, completely reverting to his past self.

The two of them:

"Kid, stop pretending to be dumb. Tell me, is Zhong Yue planning to take you down the mountain? Let me tell you one last time, stay away from Zhong Yue, or else I won't hesitate to take action!"

A fair lady and a gentleman are a good match. This saying is applicable everywhere. Zhong Yue was already outstanding among the younger generation, and coupled with her beautiful appearance, she naturally attracted some attention in the Demon Sect, including this fatty.

Although Zhong Yue didn't have a father in the sect, her master was an elder, which kept their statuses on the same level. Moreover, her cultivation level was higher than Li Pangzi's, so she didn't need to fear him.

The reason Li Pangzi came over was because he had invited Zhong Yue to leave the mountain together, but was rejected. Then he heard from his lackey that Zhong Yue went to meet Xia Fan, so he couldn't suppress his anger and rushed over.

Looking at Li Pangzi in front of him, Xia Fan found him quite amusing. He even started to reflect on himself, as the saying goes, "I examine myself three times a day." Was I too polite? Did I give him face? Should I take action?

"Fuck, did you hear me? Say something!"

Seeing that Xia Fan didn't react, Li Pangzi grabbed his collar, ready to teach him a lesson, but he soon found that he couldn't move.

He saw a pair of eyes emitting a faint light staring at him, a secret technique - Soul Capture!

In the next second, Xia Fan casually grabbed the jade gourd hanging from his waist and struck Li Pangzi's head with it.

"Fuck off!"
