Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 423 - Get even with you

So, Liu Jizhen’s biography was being taken out as a discussion once again.

之前,陆明舒的名声传扬开,刘极真也被人翻出来当过谈资,但那已经是很多年前的事了,多数只是提上一句,”她师父曾经是个天才,可惜后来废了”.

Previously, when Lu Mingshu’s has just become well known, Liu Jizhen has become a topic for discussion for some time, however, it all ended off with “Her master was once a talent, but such a pity, that he’s now nothing.”

现在刘极真修为恢复,便有人把他当年的传奇事迹拿出来大肆宣讲.

Now, Liu Jizhen has recovered fully, and there are people around who start telling his story.

八岁习武,十岁入内息,十五岁到融合,二十四岁突破出神,被誉为九瑶宫百年难出的武道天才——辉煌的履历,让小弟子们惊叹不已.

Staring martial arts at eight, entering the inner breath realm at ten, harmonization realm at fifteen, breaking through the spirit realm at twenty-four successfully.

He was once crowned as the pride of Nine Jade Palace—His brilliant past has left many disciples in aw.

刘极真的经脉废了二十四年,这些弟子们入门时,他早就放逐到碧溪谷,不理世事了.一个废人,连宣讲的价值都没有,是以门中知道此事的人并不多.

Liu Jizhen’s meridian has been broken when he was twenty-six.

When these disciples enter the Nine Jade Palace, he has already been left at the Green Jade Valley to die.

He’s a commoner back then, and there’s nothing much to talk about so the stories of him were not well known.

但现在不同了,废了修为又成功治愈,这简直就是传奇啊!

However, it’s no longer the same now.

He’s totally cured, and this is a miracle that’s unheard off!

刘极真的经历传了两天,很快又有新的消息.

After Liu Jizhen’s story was trending for two days, new pieces of information start to surface.

“知道刘掌院为什么会废掉修为吗?”

“Do you know why courtyard leader Liu meridians were broken?”

“这消息谁不知道?刘掌院在北溟的时候,与人对敌,结果出了差错…”

“Who doesn’t?

Back then, when Courtyard leader Liu was at Bei Ming, he fought an opponent but unfortunately, it went wrong…

“哎呀,你真笨,说的是其中的内情啊!你想,要废掉一个人的经脉,是那么容易做到的吗?双方的修为必然相差极大,才有可能.刘掌院这样的天才,进入出神境实力会差吗?那个人也是出神境,那他得是什么实力了?这样的实力,绝对是出神境的顶尖之选,英雄榜前三妥妥的!这种人,会默默无闻吗?绝对是成名的高手啊!”

“Aiya, why are you so stupid?

I’m talking about the inside information!

Think about it, how hard would it be to break an opponent’s meridians, who is of your standard?

The difference between their ability must be huge.

Courtyard leader Liu, who’s such a talent would do well for sure when he enters the spirit realm too.

If his opponent was in the spirit realm, then how good must he be to be able to do so?

He or she would definitely be the acme of the spirit realm!

But why did we hear absolutely nothing about this person?

With such ability, I do not believe that he or she is not ranked top three in the Hero ranking and why would he not be well known?”

“哦,这样啊!可是,好像没听说过这个高手…”

“Oh, it’s so?

But I have never heard of this person though…”

“可不是?刘掌院被一个无名出神境高手废掉,这事说起来是不是很奇怪?这就有问题啦!”

“I know right.

Courtyard leader Liu has been paralyzed by an unknown spirit realm talent, this is unimaginable.

There might be something wrong!”

“有问题我知道,可你说内情,是什么意思?难道你知道?”

“I can tell there’s something wrong.

But you said that you have inside information, so what is it?

You know something, don’t you?”

“嘿嘿!就知道你没听说,我有个邻居,他堂兄在九瑶宫太府一脉,打听到内幕消息.”

“Hehe!

I knew you have not heard of it.

I have a neighbour who’s cousin is part of the line of Taifu, a line in the Nine Jade Palace and that’s how he knew about it.”

“快说快说,什么内幕?”

“Ah, cut the chase.

So what is it?”

“听好了!刘掌院啊,他是被人给暗算了!有人找了高手,把他的情报透露出去,做下陷阱,刻意要废掉他!”

“Listen carefully!

Courtyard Leader Liu has been plotted against!

Somebody hired an elite and sold information of his whereabouts.

They then set a trap to get him done on purpose!

“这…谁会这么干?难道是三大派的?要是当初刘掌院没废掉,我们九瑶宫也不会被周家折腾这么多年!”

“But…who would be the one doing so?

One of the three biggest sects?

If they did not do so, the Nine Jade Palace would not be under the Zhou’s demon claw for such a long time!”

“可不是?你说的一点也没错!”

“I know!

But you’re right.”

“真是三大派干的?”

“It’s one of the three biggest sects?”

“哎呀,我说的是你后半句话!你刚才不是说了吗?周家,周家啊!”

“No, I meant what you last said was correct!

Didn’t you say that it was the Zhou family?

The Zhou’s!”

“啊?”

“Ah?”

“啊什么啊!你想想看,刘掌院废了,是不是对周家最有好处?听说当年,周掌门退位,派中长老更中意宇文长老,可是后来,周家找了个女婿…”

“Why do you look so shocked?

Think about it, who would benefit the most from courtyard leader Liu’s misfortune?

I heard that when Sect Leader Zhou stepped down, the elders in the sect prefer Elder Yu-Wen but they got a son-in-law soon after…”

“原来是这样,我懂了!周家真是可恶,为了掌权,把九瑶宫往死里折腾!”

“Oh, I get it now!

The Zhou family is so evil!

They could destroy the sect for power!”

“可不是,幸好他们现在滚蛋了!陆长老杀得好!”

“Yeah, but luckily, they are all gone!

Elder Lu did the right thing!”

“对!对付这种人,就应该全都杀了,干脆利落!”

“Yea, they deserve it!

She did the right thing.”

“不过,听说掌门夫人还好端端的留在琼玉宫呢!哼!付掌门就算了,他好歹是陆长老的亲爹,这个姓周的,那琼玉宫,也是她住的?”

“However, I heard that the sect leader’s wife is still living in the jasper jade palace peacefully.

Hmmp!

We could let Sect Leader Fu off, he’s elder Lu’s father off anyway but the Jasper Jade Palace shouldn’t be for people like that woman!”

“就是!应该让她滚出琼玉宫.不对,应该滚出九瑶宫!”

“She should just be kicked out of the Jasper Jade Palace.

Oh no, I mean, the Nine Jade Palace!”

小道消息如火如荼,很快传遍了九瑶山,并且经由九麓州,传到外面去.

The news spread like wildfire, and soon the whole Nine Jade Mountain is aware and the news got to Jiulu province, which then got to the outside world.

周妙如得知这个消息的时候,早就不可遏制了.

When Zhou Miaoru heard about this, it’s already uncontrollable.

听完姚大娘的禀报,周妙如愣了好久,最后冷笑一声:”这是要我的命啊!那个丫头片子,真是够狠的.她是不是还要斩草除根?不会连明堂也不打算放过吧?那可是她的亲弟弟!”

After hearing stewardess Yao’s report, Zhou Miaoru stares blankly into space for a few moments before letting out a snickered.

“She’s coming for my life, I see.

That girl is indeed ruthless.

Don’t she wish for the Zhou’s to be gone totally?

She’s going to go to Mingtang, is it?

That’s her blood-related brother!”

“夫人!”姚大娘慌忙道,”这话可不好乱说…”

“Madame!” Stewardess Yao stopped her in a hurry.

“Don’t say such unlucky things…”

“有什么不好说的?”周妙如眼中全是戾气.陆明舒在神女遗迹里没出来,她被冷了两个月,好像被人遗忘了似的.等陆明舒出来,还是没人来找她麻烦.

“What’s there to not mention?” Zhou Miaoru said in despair.

It has been two months since Lu Mingshu came out of the goddess remnant’s.

As if she’s forgotten, she’s being ignored for the past two months, and even when Lu Mingshu has returned, there’s nobody coming for her too.

最难受的不是报复,而是等待报复的过程.她已经等得不耐烦了,从一开始的绝望颓废,到现在破罐子破摔,她不想再忍了!

Getting revenge is not the worst, but is the process of waiting to get revenged.

Zhou Miaoru could not wait no more.

She has waited until she’s no longer despair, but annoyed.

The wait is getting on her nerves!

“有本事就来杀我啊!反正她已经杀了这么多人了,也不多我一个!哼,我倒要看看,她能有什么好下场.一个女孩子,杀心这么重,以后谁敢亲近她?别以为廉贞公子现在对她百依百顺,总有一天…”

“Come for me if she can!

She has already done it so many times, it doesn’t make a difference if she comes for me, or nah.

Hmmp.

I want to see how good her life can get in the future.

Who would dare to go near her after all the events?

She’s a girl after all!

The Alioth star lord may be doting on her right now, but one final day…”

“总有一天会怎么样?”外面传来一道声音.

“One final day and?” Somebody cut her off.

周妙如好像被针扎了一样,猛地跳起来.

As if she’s being pricked by a needle, Zhou Miaoru shoot up from her seat.

主仆俩向门口看过去,就见陆明舒大步走进来.

The master and servant both stood rooted to the ground, watching Lu Mingshu walk in.

一身白衣,貌如冰雪,明明看着极清冷的少女,却总让人联想起血色.

She’s in all white, and the ice cold beauty she is.

Lu Mingshu looks nothing but clean, however, no matter how pale she looks, she would still be associated with blood.

“你,你…”周妙如想说什么,又说不出来.

“You, you…” Zhou Maioru managed to utter a word, but she’s unable to continue.

陆明舒就笑了:”方才不是说得义愤填膺吗?怎么,见了我就不敢说了?继母大人!”

“My dear stepmother, aren’t you talking about it so animatedly just now?Why stop?

Are you perhaps afraid of me”

这一句戳中了周妙如的痛处,愤慨之下,她也顾不得其他了.

She mentioned Zhou Miaoru’s sore point, and in anger, Zhou Miaoru lashed out at her.

“我有什么不敢说的?陆明舒,你赢了,但这又怎么样?你母亲死了,活不过来了,就算你杀了我,她都只是个弃妇!”

“What is there that I dare not say?

So what if you have won today, Lu Mingshu?

Your mother is dead!

No matter what you do to me, she will still be an abandoned woman and nothing could change the facts!”

出乎意料,陆明舒并没有愤怒.她轻蔑地扫过去一眼:”继母大人,一个正妻的位置,就值得你高.潮一辈子了?呵,亏我以为,你执掌周家,总该有点眼界的.”

Out of her surprised, Lu Mingshu did not even show a single sign of anger.

All she did was to glance at Zhou Miaoru in disdain.

“My dearest step mother, seeing that you have the Zhou family in your hands, I thought you were better.

But who knows that you are just someone who could get high for your entire life just because you are the rightful wife of a man!” [TL directly and there’s some sexual implication about the high part but yeah tell me if it’s appropriate or nah.]

“你…”

“You…”

陆明舒没给她回嘴的机会,继续道:”我以后怎么样,不劳你操心.我跟你不同,你自己没本事,只能靠男人刷存在感.我不需要,我的世界,你理解不了.”

But Lu Mingshu did not give Zhou Miaoru a chance to retorated.

^She shook her head^ and continued.

“From now on, you would not need to worry about me anymore.

We are two different people.

You are incapable that you could only rely on a man to prove your existence so you would never understand how my life works.”

真是失望啊!她还以为,这个继母执掌周家这么久,还从她爹手里抢到了权力,应该有点见识,没想到骂起人来,也只会泼妇那些招.

~Such a disappointment!

She initially thought that her stepmother would be better at countering such situations after the years of taking the Zhou’s in control and snatching the control away from her father.

But who knows that there isn’t any difference between her and another shrew?~

“行了,你还是担心你的亲生女儿去吧,这些话跟我说没用,我也不是来跟你耍嘴皮子的!”

“But whatever.

Please start worrying on your blood-related daughter instead.

There’s no need to tell me all this.

I’m not here to argue with you.”

周妙如警惕地看着她:”那你来干什么?杀我吗?那就来啊,你以为到现在了,我还会怕?”

“So what are you here for?” Zhou Miaoru stared at her with suspicion.

“To kill me?

Do you think by now, I’ll be afraid of death?”

陆明舒淡淡道:”来算账.”手中剑往桌上一搁,发出”咯”的一声轻响,她沉声,”我问你,我师父的经脉,是不是你废的?”

“To get even with you of course.” Lu Mingshu said calmly and bang her hand onto the table softly.

“Let me ask you,” She said fiercely.

“Did you break my master’s meridians?”
