All The Female Disciples Want To Kill Me-Chapter 55 Betrayal_1

Xiao Ruoching didn’t know what expression she should wear.

Regarding Su Bei.

This Master, who had, in some sense, saved her twice.

She had already come to regard him as a part of her life.

As gentle as his actions were now, she was acutely aware that it was all a façade, a mask hiding behind that fierce face.

—This man was just saying, "With no woman in heart, the drawn sword is naturally divine"!

Perhaps her past self would have sneered at hearing this.

Her Master was so gentle. Although he had never done anything to her, she could still feel a faint sense of affinity from him.

But she would likely never forget the feeling of that sword piercing her chest, not in this lifetime.

So Xiao Ruoching firmly believed this might truly not be a joke.

Su Bei probably really did think that way!

She had also wondered if, without Su Bei, she might have already died back at the Xiao Family Courtyard.

Was it just a matter of dying sooner or later?

But that wasn’t the heart of the matter!

Perhaps her hatred for Su Bei wasn’t just because he had struck her down with his sword. More of it stemmed from his betrayal of her, didn’t it?

She hated that he had never truly been sincere with her, from beginning to end. She hated that he had always feigned gentleness, just as he was doing now.

She had originally thought that, reborn and facing him again, she could remain as calm as still water, indifferent to his actions.

But Xiao Ruoching discovered she wasn’t as strong as she had imagined.

Her first reaction upon seeing Su Bei draw the Qingping Sword was panic!

Then confusion!

Su Bei’s expression grew increasingly puzzled. His thumb was about to wipe away her tears, which seemed to be still streaming down, but he couldn’t keep up.

He hastily took out a silk handkerchief and roughly rubbed it on Xiao Ruoching’s face.

Then, an expression of frustration appeared on his face.

He couldn’t let this tool of a disciple be bullied!

If she were bullied, how could he possibly relax?

She had only just started cultivating, and already she had enabled him to manifest a perfected Selfless Realm! Showing off like this felt fantastic!

This was his ultimate cheat!

Xiao Ruoching snatched the silk handkerchief Su Bei was haphazardly rubbing on her face. Her slender, pale fingers gently clenched it as she tried to calm her turbulent emotions.

Then she just looked into Su Bei’s eyes and said, "There’s nothing to worry about, Master. No one is bullying me."

"It’s just that I’m feeling a bit homesick, Master!"

"..."

Homesick?

A look of realization crossed Su Bei’s face. ƒгeewebnovёl_com

So that was it!

Xiao Ruoching usually acted so calm and indifferent that he had almost forgotten she was just a sixteen-year-old girl.

This kind of reaction was only natural!

He absolutely had to seize this chance to aggressively boost her affection for him!

Su Bei’s eyes held a rare look of sincerity as he looked at Xiao Ruoching and declared loudly, "From now on, my place is your home!"

"No-Sword Peak is your home!"

"And I, your Master, am your home!"

After saying these words, Su Bei straightened his back, letting the morning sun shine on his tall figure.

The light accentuated Su Bei’s imposing figure and noble bearing, giving him an almost ethereal, immortal-like aura!

According to the usual script, after he said these words, Xiao Ruoching should have been moved to tears instantly.

Maybe she would even say something like, ’Master, from now on, this disciple will live only for you!’—words that sounded incredibly melodramatic!

After all, no lines were more shamelessly manipulative than the ones he was delivering right now!

However, the scene Su Bei had imagined, of his foolish disciple bursting into tears, did not occur.

Xiao Ruoching, her eyes downcast, had a faint, mocking smile playing on her lips as she asked, "Really? Master!"

Su Bei didn’t see Xiao Ruoching’s expression and was somewhat puzzled, but he didn’t think much of it and nodded, "Of course!"

Xiao Ruoching raised her head, an enigmatic emotion flickering in her eyes, and asked softly, "Then... Master, you wouldn’t betray me, would you?"

As her words faded, Xiao Ruoching felt her heart seem to stop for a moment.

Even though she knew he would surely nod without hesitation, she still felt a pang of nervousness, mixed with an ill-timed flicker of anticipation.

Su Bei furrowed his brows and looked at Xiao Ruoching.

What kind of strange conversation was this?

And... this felt like she was totally setting up a death flag!

Su Bei leaned closer to Xiao Ruoching’s face. His eyes focused intently as he plucked a stray thread, likely from the handkerchief, from her rosy, delicate lips.

Then, his wish finally granted, his large hand gently patted Xiao Ruoching’s head as he said nonchalantly, "Why are you thinking such wild thoughts all the time?"

"Proper cultivation is the true path!"

"Here, take this storage ring. I, your Master, can see you’ve reached the Qi Refining Realm, so you should be able to open it now!"

"Pack up well, we’re about to set out soon!"

"..."

Set out?

Xiao Ruoching stared blankly at Su Bei.

She hadn’t heard those utterly hypocritical words from Su Bei.

All of Su Bei’s actions seemed so natural; he hadn’t casually made any grand promises.

Then, she subconsciously extended a soft, delicate hand to receive the storage ring Su Bei offered.

She listened to Su Bei muttering nearby, something about whether she knew how to use the ring, how they were going to the Dongfeng Ancient Country soon, and sighing that the pigs were gone, so he was out of money...

But none of that seemed to matter.

Still... if only you could truly, always be like this... how wonderful would that be?

The cold wind rustled. Outside the imposing White Jade Mountain Gate of the Sword Sect stood two figures.

Su Bei stood with his hands clasped behind his back, the peerless Qingping Sword at his waist. He gazed at the scene before him, at the vast expanse of heaven and earth!

Sigh!

He’d been cooped up in the Sect for so long; it was time to go out and have some fun.

Xiao Ruoching had already started Qi Cultivation. As a Child of Destiny, it would probably only take her a few days to reach Foundation Establishment.

Although her constitution was good, Foundation Establishment was a crucial step!

Ideally, it had to be a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment!

Bathing in those Immortal Springs during the Qi Refining Realm offered many benefits for one’s constitution!

It had been many years since the Sword Sect had a disciple in the Qi Refining Realm. The Immortal Pool would probably only open after the new recruitment drive was complete. For now, they’d have to search for alternatives outside.

He also needed to find those Sword Sect disciples who had mysteriously disappeared in Mo City.

Who knew what terrifying things they had encountered that they couldn’t even send a report back to the Sword Sect in time!

Su Bei felt a chill creeping up his spine!

His hand subconsciously touched the Qingping Sword!

Hopefully, they wouldn’t run into any trouble...

And he still needed to quickly raise funds within a month for the Sword Sect’s recruitment assembly...

But where was he going to get the money?

Xiao Ruoching followed silently behind Su Bei without making a sound.

"Disciple, you can’t always look so stern!"

"When you’re out in the world, you won’t make any friends if you’re like that."

"You should learn to smile."

"..."

"Mm..."

Outside the White Jade Mountain Gate of the Sword Sect, the faint sounds of their conversation drifted away.

The two figures gradually vanished into the distance...
