Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 419 - Not worried

果然,这个想法得到了玄女的确认.她留下来的只是一抹游魂,力量太少.倘若以自身境界出招,别说接招,恐怕靠近百里就会被绞得粉碎.

The mystic lady have confirmed that this could be used in this way.

She’s now just a homeless soul, and she does not have much power.

If she were to sent Lu Mingshu over physically, than Lu Mingshu would have been dead immediately.

仅仅只是在幻景里走了一遭,陆明舒就觉得自己实力提升不少.之前她面对资深出神境,还是有那么点发虚,现在,已是全然不惧.

After the trip, Lu Mingshu can feel that she has improved significantly.

Before this, she’s still not confident of her ability when she has to face Courtyard leader Wen and Courtyard leader Qi.

But the Lu Mingshu now has nothing to fear about them, even if they were alive and kicking.

当然,这只是提升了她在剑术上的感悟,若是修为远远超过她,比如化物境,那还是不能相比.

Even if she had become more skilled, it doesn’t mean that she would be competition to an assimilation realm yet.

“吾心愿已了.”玄女的身影越发虚幻,声音也变得朦朦胧胧.

“My job is done.” The Mystic lady turned even faint and her voice became unstable too.

“前辈!”陆明舒喊道,”您就这样走了吗?”

“Senior!” Lu Mingshu shouted.

“Are you going to leave now?”

玄女轻轻道:”只是一抹神念,终要散去.”

“Duh.

I’m not even a human.

I’ll have to leave sooner or later.”

“晚辈还有许多事想问…”比如她来自哪里,是什么修为,有什么经历,还有天轮…

“But junior still have many burning questions for you…”Where is she from, her cultivations, experience and all about the heavenly wheel.

Lu Mingshu still has so much left unanswered.

“不必问了,这一切都要你自己去经历.”快要消散了,玄女的声音显出一丝难得的温柔,”最后的忠告,你得了我的传承,他日遇到我的敌人,万万小心…”

“You can look for the answers yourself.

What’s there to ask?” If Lu Mingshu were to describe the mystic lady, she’s more cool than feminine or gentle.

But as she’s about the disapere, she sounded more gentle than ever.

“Oh yeah, since you have gotten my inheritance, you must beware of my enemy…”

“您的敌人是谁?”

“Who is it, senior?”

玄女张了张口,似要回答,但到最后,也没听到她的声音.

The mystic lady opened her mouth as if she’s saying something but there’s nothing that Lu Mingshu heard in the end.

一阵风吹过,身影如沙而散,一切归于平寂.

A wind blew passed, and all that’s left is the sound of the wind howling.

陆明舒立在原地,确定玄女已经魂散,叹了口气.

Lu Mingshu walked around to look for the mystic lady.

But to her dismay, she’s really gone.

就不能把话说完再走?敌人是谁,这么重要的事,居然不说清楚!

~Oh my god.

Why can’t she finish her words before leaving!

Such an important matter and she only touch the topic slightly!~

当玄女最后的魂念散去,笼罩在琅华峰上的独特磁光突然一荡,缓缓消失了.

“Whoosh—” The magneto-optic lights hovering on the White magnificent peak dissapered one by one.

之前被结界困住的空间,回到原本的世界.身处其中的陆明舒并无感觉,九瑶宫的弟子却突然发现,琅华峰多出了一截.

And the space with was initially trapped by numerous boundaries now returned back to its original space.

Lu Mingshu felt no difference, as she was right inside.

But the Nine Jade disciples outside all realised that there’s an extra chunk of land growing out from the White Magnificent Peak.

…

周妙如在发呆.

Zhou Miaoru sat on her seat, staring blankly into space.

神女祭结束后,她就不再打理任何事了.

After the Deity’s festival, she had stopped

为了周家的未来,她豪赌一场,押上了家族的前程,与自己的未来.

For the Zhou’s future, she gambled with a huge stake, the future of the Zhou’s, and her future too.

周妙如不觉得自己会输.陆明舒再厉害,也就是刚刚进入出神境,她都已经准备到那个份上了,怎么会输?

She’s certain that no matter how good Lu Mingshu is, she has only just broken through the spirit realm.

~I have already gone to such a huge extent, there’s no way that I’ll still lose to her.~

但是,老天似乎很喜欢打她的脸,万中无一的结果,偏偏出现了.

However, it seems like god’s hobby is to slap her in the face.

0.1 per cent happened.

她输得一塌糊涂,周家派系所有长老,连同暗桩,被铲除得干干净净,一个也没留下.

She has lost everything, and all the elders on her side have paid their lives for their choices.

Not even one was spared.

宇文师等人从琅华峰出来,周妙如一直以为他是骗她的.就算计划失败,怎么可能一个也活不了?不提实力,那个丫头敢做这种事?她是九瑶宫弟子,屠戮师门长老,说出去名声能听吗?就算把先动手的罪名推给他们,冷血无情的名声总跑不掉,以后还有谁敢与她来往?

When she first heard from Yu-Wen Shi, Zhou Miaoru didn’t believe him.

~Even if the plan has failed, how could it be that bad that not even one is alive?

Putting ability aside, why would the girl do so?

She’s the disciple of the Nine Jade Palace, and it’s an offence for murdering her elders!

And her reputation would surely be doomed if even one hears about it.

Even if the blame were to be on the Zhous, it would have negative impacts on her future too.

可是,她又等了三天,等来的只有付尚清和万禹太上长老,终于死心了.

She waited for three more days, but only Fu Shangqing and Grand Elder Wan Yu came out of the white magnificent peak.

死了,真的全都死了.

~Dead.

They are all dead.~

她怎么能?怎么敢!!

How could she?How dare she?

周妙如满心都是愤怒,这是她从来没有想过的失败,连苟延残喘的机会都没有.

Zhou Miaoru is full of resentment currently.

This is a result she has never expected, and she would have never expected that she would have lost this game totally.

付尚清对她还是那样淡淡的,没翻脸,也没有安慰,但他回头就把付明堂从临水崖接了回来,亲自管教起来.

When Fu Shangqing returns, his indifferent attitude towards her was still the same.

He did not fall out with her, but neither did he comfort her.

The first thing he did was to fetch Fu Mingtang back from the Ling waters cliff and started to coach him personally.

这是与她分道扬镳的意思吗?

~So he’s trying to make clear that he wants to part ways with me, I see.~

周妙如冷笑.就算真的分道扬镳了,他以为自己就能好?她这个继母不慈没错,但是,谁才是罪魁祸首?没有他的野心,没有他的忘恩负义,事情怎么会发生?他以为自己占着父亲之名,就能够事不关己吗?

Zhou Miaoru snicked at herself.

So what if that really happens?

~Does he think that he would have a good life ahead?

I’m an evil step-mother, and that’s the facts.

But who caused all this to happen?

Without his greed and him biting the hands who fed him, will things be like now?

He thinks that it’s all unrelated to him just because he’s the father?~

那个丫头心狠手辣,这么多同门长老,说杀就杀,这传出去,就是轰动古夏的一桩惨案.但她做了,可见根本不在乎别人的看法,也不在乎自己的名声.既然如此,她又怎么会在乎”父亲”这个名分?

~And that girl.

So ruthless and tough.

She can just kill all the elders she wants, unafraid of what the others think.

If news this gets out, it would cause an uproar in ancient China.

But since Lu Mingshu has carried out with her actions, it shows that what others think doesn’t bother her either.

So why would she care about her father?~

然而,就算付尚清不会有好结果,周家都完了.

~But so what?

Even if Fu Shangqing does not end off well, the Zhou’s are doomed too.~

都过了两个月了,宇文师还在等那丫头出现.只要她一回来,九瑶宫就会变天.

It’s been two years, yet Yu-Wen Shi is still waiting for Lu Mingshu patiently.

As soon as she gets back, the tables would turn.

呵呵,他们也被她的辣手无情吓住了吧?整个古夏,还从来没有听过这样的事,哪怕门派斗争动了杀心,谁不是遮遮掩掩的?比如她暗算刘极真,把事情抹得一干二净,连他本人都不清楚.

~Hehe, even they are scared of her now, right?

This is the first time in ancient China that internal strife has been taken to such a degree.

Everyone would try to hide their doings, no matter how much they want someone dead.

Like how nobody knows about me plotting against Liu Jizhen.~

周妙如以前以为,修为高的人不一定厉害,因为这世上有着无所不在的规则,就算以实力为尊的武者也会被世情所困.只要通晓规则,就能无往不利.陆明舒那般行事,她经常想,总有一天她会吃大亏,就像刘极真那样.

Zhou Miaoru once thought that high cultivation is not equivalent to being able to do anything as one likes, because of the numerous hidden rules present in the world holding everyone captive.

To Zhou Miaoru, following the rules well is the way to stay safe.

Seeing how Lu Mingshu handle stuffs, she believes strongly that one final day, she would be like Liu Jizhen ending up to be at a disadvantage.

但她现在知道了,狂妄到一定程度,真的可以无视规则.

However, now, she finally knows that it is possible to not care about the rules.

因为她自己动手把规则给砸烂了.

Because she broke them first.

门派之争不涉生死又如何?她全杀了,谁能找她报仇?只要她够强,一直站在最顶端,就算被万人唾骂,成为举世之敌,仍然没人动得了她.甚至于,还会有人以她为榜样,将她捧上神坛.

So what if internal strive never takes one’s life into account?

There’s no one who could take revenge even if she decides to kill all because being the acme of the world, there’s no one who would be able to despite receiving all the hate.

Furthermore, there would still be people who respects her and willingly bow down on her.

这就是武者的世界.

This is the life of a martial artist.

她永远也追不上的世界.

And the life that’s furthest from her.

周妙如惨笑一声,从来没觉得自己这样失败过.

Zhou Miaoru sneered.

She never expected that she’ll be such a failure some day.

…

“公子,您不着急吗?”碧溪谷小院中,谢长晖问.

In the Green Jaded Valley.

“Young master, aren’t you worried?”

“嗯?”谢廉贞回了他一个字,仍旧慢吞吞地烹着茶,还倒了一杯吩咐他,”送给刘掌院.”

“Huh?” Xie Lianzhen hummed, not even sparing him a glance.

“Give this to courtyard leader Liu.” He instructed, passing a cup of tea to Xie Zhanghui.

谢长晖端起那杯茶,飞快地跑到巨石那边,交给刘极真.

Xie Zhanghui nodded and did as he was told.

刘极真往这边看了一眼,勉强给他面子,一口饮尽.

Liu Jizhen glance over at Xie Lianzhen and downed the cup of tea unhappily.

谢长晖跑回来:”您这么悠闲,不怕刘掌院不高兴?”

“Aren’t you afraid that courtyard leader Liu would be unpleased with you?” Xie Zhanghui asked.

“为什么要不高兴?”谢廉贞笑眯眯.

“Why would he be?” Xie Lianzhen laughed.

“陆姑娘到现在都没有消息,您却一点也不担心…”

“Miss Lu is still missing, yet you do not even show a single sign of being worried for her….”

“她没事我为什么要担心?”

“Why should I be when she’s fine?”

谢长晖被他打败了.他家公子,真的不是个正常人,想当初,陆姑娘去北溟,他每天数着手指头过日子,担心得不行.现在呢?明知道她经历过一场厮杀,无音无讯的,居然还每天烹茶焚香弹琴,惬意得不得了.该担心的时候不担心,不该担心的时候瞎担心,谢长晖确定,自家公子的脑子确实和正常人不一样.

Xie Zhanghui sighed.

His master is indeed abnormal.

~Back then, when miss Lu went travelling in Beiming, you were so worried that you are always on the edge of your seat!

Now, she’s in a serious fight and you could still seat here, playing a musical instrument and brewing tea happily almost daily as if there’s nothing going on.

Not worrying when he should, and be like a cat on hot bricks over nothing.

My young master is sure something else.~

谢廉贞一边收拾茶具,一边慢吞吞道:”你啊,这就叫瞎操心.周家都死光了,还有谁能伤到她?”

“Stupid.

The zhous are all dead, what is there left to harm her?” Xie Lianzhen shook his head and start keeping his tea set.

“可是到现在都没出来…”

“But she’s still not out yet…”

谢长晖话刚说到一半,忽然感觉到一股诡异的地动:”怎么回事?山又塌了?”

Suddenly, they could feel the ground moving.

“What’s going on?

Another peak has fallen again?”

谢廉贞似有所觉,抬头看向琅华峰.

Xie Lianzhen felt it too and turned to the white magnificent peak.

而后,他徐徐露出笑容,轻声道:”她回来了.”

He than shook his head and smiled.

“No, but there she is.”
