I’m the MC, Why Do I Suck at Cultivation - Chapter 63

Chapter 63: This matter has nothing to do with the Prince!

Translator: Dreamless

Editor: Issey

Liu Qingfeng fell on the ground. A look of panic crossed his face, making Lu Changsheng curious.

“What did you do?”

Lu Changsheng looked at Liu Qingfeng curiously.

“I didn’t do anything. I just wrote a few words on a note, but how would I have known that they belonged to the Prince? If I knew, I wouldn’t have written something so randomly.”

Liu Qingfeng said helplessly.

“What did you write?”

Lu Changsheng became more and more curious.

“Senior Brother, that’s not the point. The point is, if the prince really activates the formation and finds out that I was the one who wrote those comments randomly, then we will be in trouble.”

Liu Qingfeng said seriously.

“You are the one who is in trouble. It has nothing to do with me.”

Lu Changsheng said seriously.

In fact, he was also feeling guilty, but the thing he didn’t expect was for Liu Qingfeng to also write things indiscriminately. It really was a work of fate.

“Senior Brother, If met with a mishap then who will bring you tea and water along the way? Senior Brother, please help me this time!”

Liu Qingfeng really had guts. He was that typical kind of person who would dare to do anything.

Glancing at the night scenery outside, Lu Changsheng slowly said, “In this case, to prevent future troubles, we can only go with our last resort.”

“Senior Brother you mean… to kill people?”

Liu Qingfeng lowered his voice, looking very serious.

Lu Changsheng “…”

He felt that Liu Qingfeng was not a disciple of a righteous sect, but more like a disciple of a demonic sect, who would kill people at every turn.

“Do you dare to kill?”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but ask.

“I don’t dare.”

Liu Qingfeng shook his head and said directly.

“Then why are you mentioning that?”

“Senior Brother, I dare not kill people, but I can keep a secret. If you kill someone secretly, I promise to keep my mouth shut.”

Liu Qingfeng “….”

Lu Changsheng ignored Liu Qingfeng.

He had already learned about this guy’s big mouth.

He reckoned that if he said anything about killing the Prince, then when it would be coming out of Liu Qingfeng’s mouth, he might have really become someone who would assassinate the Emperor.

“Senior Brother, you speak, speak, I won’t interrupt.”

Seeing that Lu Changsheng was unwilling to pay attention to him, Liu Qingfeng spoke promptly, appearing to be a little anxious.

“The only way now is to leave without saying goodbye.”

Lu Changsheng said. To look more refined, he used the phrase to ‘leave without saying goodbye.’

“Senior Brother, do you mean to run away?”

Liu Qingfeng suddenly realized.

“En.” Lu Changsheng nodded, “We will go down the mountain to temper ourselves, and it would be better to have very few people known. The Emperor sent Qiye to follow us, which is a very troublesome matter. Would you want to bring a woman with you?”

Lu Changsheng said.

“It’s okay for me to bring a woman, but this Qian Qiye is weird. I found her gaze very strange. Whenever she looks at me, I always feel a little bit off. If she followed us, Senior Brother, I am afraid that our integrity as disciples of Zenith Heaven would be ruined in the future.”

Liu Qingfeng said shamelessly.

But Lu Changsheng had long been accustomed to Liu Qingfeng’s narcissism. He didn’t talk nonsense but continued to speak, “When the seal on the official document comes, we will leave, this very night. We shouldn’t delay. I’ve seen the map. Ten thousand miles away, there happens to be an Ancient City. We can fly directly to the Saint Land of Yin and Yang. When that time comes, even if Qian Qiye wants to come with us, she will be unable to.”

Lu Changsheng had already thought about everything.

He didn’t want to take another person along, to tour Middle-Earth without any reason. Bringing Liu Qingfeng was already troublesome.

If he brought a few more, then his head must have really gotten big [1].

Get the seal on the official document, and run away on the same night. That’s how they should do it.

As for whether Qian Qiye would catch up, Lu Changsheng was not worried at all.

After all, once he arrived at the Saint Land of Yin and Yang, Lu Changsheng could refuse to see her for various reasons, no matter if Qian Qiye found out or not. Even if she was thick-skinned enough to try to persuade the disciples of Saint Land of Yin and Yang, no matter how big of trouble it would be, it would not be troublesome for him anymore.

As the saying goes, all the Daoist Sects of the World is a family.

The only thing that made Lu Changsheng feel uncomfortable was the fact that they received him as their guest, giving him delicious food and drinks to entertain him, and yet here he was thinking of running away at night. It would seem that he didn’t know proper etiquette.

But if Lu Changsheng let Qian Qiye come with him, just how much trouble would they incur?

They should still run away.

“Senior Brother surely deserves to be the Eldest Senior Brother. Let’s leave tonight.”

Liu Qingfeng nodded repeatedly. For every second that he stayed here, he felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles

He couldn’t wait to leave quickly.

Just like that, in less than half an hour, someone delivered the seal on the official document, but Qian Yiyuan didn’t come up. The two of them entered the palace, but they had to take care of some matters so they didn’t come.

That’s it. It’s time to go.

At midnight, Lu Changsheng took Liu Qingfeng away.

Just as he walked out of the room, Lu Changsheng felt that leaving without saying goodbye was somewhat rude.

They entertained him with delicious food, but he would leave without saying goodbye. To put it frankly, he didn’t know proper etiquette.

The most important thing that he was afraid of was for the Emperor to put all the blame on Qian Qiye and Qian Yiyuan, and for him to mistakenly believe that the two of them didn’t entertain him.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but say: “Qingfeng, do you think it is necessary to leave a note? If we leave without saying goodbye and a misunderstanding is created that the Prince and Princess did not entertain us well, wouldn’t they be wronged?”

Lu Changsheng said.

“Senior Brother is reasonable.” Liu Qingfeng nodded thoughtfully, but soon he couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Then what should we do?”

“Leave a note, lest His Majesty would wrong them.”

Lu Changsheng thought for a while. He went back to the room and took out the pen and ink. Although he didn’t know what words to write, it would be fine.

[Your Majesty, I left without saying goodbye today, but this has nothing to do with Prince Qian Yiyuan! —Lu Changsheng.]

Leaving this note, Lu Changsheng was satisfied. Nothing would happen now.

Just after thinking about it, Lu Changsheng felt that this sentence was not sincere enough.

So he added another sentence.

[Your Majesty, don’t think much about it. This matter has nothing to do with the Prince.]

But important things needed to be said thrice.

Lu Changsheng added another sentence.

[This matter has nothing to do with the Prince.]

After he was done, Lu Changsheng disappeared.

At that moment, two figures quietly left the Capital of the Empire of Da Qian.

At the same time.

The Palace of Da Qian.

Inside the Prince’s Residence.

Qian Yiyuan looked at the officials in front of him with a smile on his face.

“I’m telling you, today I met the Imperial Teacher. Do you know how much the Imperial Teacher praised me?”

Qian Yiyuan said happily.

“The Imperial Teacher? Your Highness won over the Imperial Teacher’s favor? If that’s the case then the throne of Your Highness would be more stable now.”

“To be praised by the Imperial Teacher, Your Highness is indeed a dragon among men, ah.”

“It is said that the Imperial Teacher has already transcended the immortal world. He is also the peerless and proud Son of Heaven, the mentor to all Buddhist monks, the Eldest Senior Brother to all Dao cultivators, and likely, he will also be the Dao Sect master in the future. If you get the support of such a person, Your Highness will have a peace of mind!”

All the officials started to flatter.

However, at this moment, a voice sounded.

“But my subordinates heard that Your Highness dispatched the Imperial Guards to cause havoc at the Lantern Festival today. I wonder if this will annoy the Imperial Teacher?”

Someone spoke. As soon as this was said, Qian Yiyuan’s expression turned serious.

“This is impossible. The Imperial Teacher is broad-minded. How can he be such a person?”

He said firmly.

Although there were traces of guilt in his heart, after thinking about it, Lu Changsheng did ask him to deliver the seal on the official document.

Obviously, he appreciated him.

Thinking of this, Qian Yiyuan felt a lot more peaceful.

That’s it.

The next day!

The Dynasty of Da Qian.

Inside the Cultivation Hall.
