Chapter 245 - Failed Stunt
"Oh really? This is my courtyard and I can kick you out whenever I want." Elder Jing snorted as she lifted her sleeves up.
She was prepared to have a showdown with her for treating her courtyard like her own.
Elder Shan smirked as she pulled Yang Wei closer to her. "Little Brother Yang Wei, how did you manage to create a pill cloud?"
Her breathing blew inside Yang Wei's ear, causing him to feel a little tingling in his ear.
"C-Can you release me?" Yang Wei asked softly.
Feeling her hot air breathing inside his ear and how Elder Jing's expression turned colder by the minutes, Yang Wei was frightful of his upcoming fate.
"If I release you then I shall go and tell those old fogeys about who really created the pill." Elder Shan threatened as she pressed her ample breast on Yang Wei's back.
Yang Wei felt his vision blurred as he saw Elder Jing's expression darkened completely.
'I'm not going to die here.' Yang Wei sneered inwardly as he got the perfect plan to escape his predicament.
"I-I see… then please..." Yang Wei mumbled softly as he then closed his eyes and fainted in front of Elder Jing and Elder Shan.
Elder Shan had to pull him up to prevent Yang Wei from dropping to the floor.
"What happened to him?" Elder Shan asked in a confusing tone. "He was just fine a while ago so why did he suddenly faint again?"
Meanwhile, Elder Jing walked over and touched on his pulse to check his condition with a worried face.
Her expression soon changed as she stared at Elder Shan and made some hand signals.
Elder Shan narrowed her gaze as she lowered Yang Wei on the floor and stood up.
"How should we torture him for pranking us?" Elder Shan then sent a mental transmission to Elder Jing.
"I'll say we'll strip him naked and dump him out of my courtyard." Elder Jing replied in a menacing tone.
She had thought Yang Wei encountered some kind of backlash and got worried about him.
But who would have thought that Yang Wei dared to resort to trickery such as playing dead in front of them?
"I checked his pulse and he was healthier than ever." Elder Jing snorted in their silent conversation.
Elder Shan nodded her head.
They then proceed to create some formation around Yang Wei's body as they grinned evilly.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei was still playing dead as he wondered why they became quiet.
'Did they leave already?' Yang Wei pondered inwardly before shaking off that thought process when he could still feel their presence.
Suddenly, Elder Shan started speaking aloud. "Elder Jing, did you know that when I assigned Yang Wei to investigate Tang Xin, he had the gut to steal my first kiss."
Yang Wei sweated profusely when Elder Shan dropped a tactical nuke upon him.
"Oh? I never expected that Yang Wei was the slick type but I guess I was wrong." Elder Jing exuded a threatening aura.
She then tilted her head slightly and glared at Elder Shan. "Are you joking or serious?"
"I swear upon heaven that if I had told any lies then may my cultivation shatter into pieces." Elder Shan swore to heaven, proving her claims.
"While we were in the concealment room, Yang Wei had kissed me and he massaged my shoulders to ask for my forgiveness." Elder Shan then said.
Although Elder Shan had concealed some of the facts and details, she wasn't really lying since everything she said had happened.
Yang Wei couldn't play dead any longer at this accusation since he knew he would really become a dead man.
He stood up from the floor and showed a solemn expression. "Elder Shan is concealing some of the truth, Elder Jing."
"Indeed, I may have accidentally kissed Elder Shan but it was only because I was concentrating too much. Also, I have no nefarious intention toward Elder Shan." He added.
Elder Shan nodded her head.
"Yang Wei is telling the truth." Elder Shan agreed with Yang Wei's statement.
She then turned around and smiled at Yang Wei. "I thought you fainted so how did you hear our conversation and even defended yourself at such a great timing."
Yang Wei's face ashen when he realized his trickery was foolish and incompetent.
He was going against the experts like Elder Jing and Elder Shan. Trying to one-up them was near impossible.
"I-I was conscious but my body had lost energy." Yang Wei tried to defend his explanation.
Alas, Elder Jing grabbed his ears and twisted them around as she snorted. "What a great joke by you, Yang Wei? Did you know how worried I was to see you suddenly faint?"
"I thought a backlash had occurred and something bad was happening to you." She added.
Yang Wei tried to beg for forgiveness until he felt some droplets of tears coming from Elder Jing.
Yang Wei quickly held her hands and embraced her. "I'm sorry Jing Feng, I just didn't want you to continue to argue and fight."
Elder Jing punched Yang Wei's chest lightly as she opened her teeth and bit at Yang Wei's neck.
Yang Wei endured the pain as he pulled her closer to him, not letting her go.
Sometime later, Elder Jing calmed down as she took a seat down and glared at Yang Wei.
"If you dared to pull this kind of prank again then don't ever think about sleeping in my bed." She threatened while exuding a frightening aura.
Yang Wei nodded his head as he promised to never pull such a stunt.
Meanwhile, Elder Shan held a complicated expression at the interaction between Elder Jing and Yang Wei.
'Sigh, how nice is it to quarrel around while pursuing the martial dao?' Elder Shan wondered silently as she wished to enjoy their atmosphere.
"Anyway, since Shan Zhilan is here then I'm going to relay the information I had gathered from Alchemist Guo." Elder Jing pushed Yang Wei away as she began talking about Tang Xin.
