Chapter 128.2 Help Me Persuade Zhang Li’er (2/2)
Mo Sanshan’s eyes glistened. “Really? Wang Ke, sorry for causing you so much trouble. Would you please hand Tong An’an and his men to me now?” he said.
Wang Ke asked, “What do you mean? Weren’t you speaking about the previous time I caught Tong An’an? The last time!”
Mo Sanshan’s face blackened once again. Damn, Wang Ke is too black-hearted.Your Revered Teacher Chen Tianyuan had already demanded benefits from us back then; you’re trying to grab for more?
“Wang Ke, I’m talking about this time. You and the Golden Crow Sect disciples caught Tong An’an again! This time!” Mo Sanshan corrected Wang Ke with a frown.
Wang Ke nodded and said, “Yeah, that’s right! Don’t tell me you want them back again? It took us so much effort to capture them!”
Mo Sanshan almost wanted to smack the bast*rd to death.
“Tong An’an holds deep secrets of the demonic sect. He’s very important! I need to interrogate him. Hand him over to me, will you?” Mo Sanshan asked in frustration.
He wouldn’t have been as forthcoming if Wang Ke hadn’t made his arrival known to everyone in town.
“You should have said it earlier! I have no issue with that!” Wang Ke said.
Mo Sanshan: “………………………!”
Wasn’t I talking about this just now?
Zhang Zhengdao pulled at Wang Ke’s clothes, as though signaling him not to agree so quickly.
“Zhang Zhengdao, why are you pulling at me? Hall Lord Mo is doing this for the entire world. What’s the big deal of giving him a few demons? Do you want to ask him for things in exchange? How shameless of you!” Wang Ke turned around and shot his companion a stare.
The latter felt embarrassed while returning Wang Ke’s gaze with one of confusion.
He shouldn’t be saying that… When did Wang Ke become so generous?He doesn’t have the guts to extort an Astral Infant like Mo Sanshan?This is completely out of character!
“Hall Lord Mo, don’t worry. I will surely comply since you personally came over! We have Tong An’an and his ten baldies; we will hand them to you immediately. I hope your interrogation is fruitful for the righteous faction!” Wang Ke said, looking dead serious.
Mo Sanshan looked at Wang Ke in a daze. He agreed to it so quickly?Why do I feel so uneasy?
“Okay, thanks!” Mo Sanshan agreed.
Although he felt as if Wang Ke were digging a hole for him to jump into, there was no time to hesitate. First I’ve got to secure those demons.
Wang Ke continued, “I just have one request. A little bit of help from you, only a bit!”
“Oh?” Mo Sanshan’s eyes narrowed with suspicion.
That’s right. According to my intel, you’re not someone who would willingly suffer a loss. I would really feel uneasy if you didn’t ask for anything in return.
“It’s about Zhang Li’er. Have you heard about the issue between her and me?” Wang Ke asked, looking at that senior.
“Zhang Li’er?” Mo Sanshan was a bit surprised.
He looked at the group of sleeping cultivators from the Golden Crow Sect.
“Didn’t the Golden Crow Sect disciples help you to deal with Tong An’an, guarding outside the door for you? Zhang Li’er made arrangements for this…!” Mo Sanshan asked curiously.
“Right. It’s… It’s a problem about her feelings for me!” Wang Ke nodded.
Mo Sanshan: “………………………!”
Mo Sanshan would have never expected Zhang Li’er to have feelings for Wang Ke. The idea is completely unrealistic!You are a mere Innate cultivator who just entered an immortal sect. Who do you think Zhang Li’er is?How can there be any problem regarding her feelings for you?
“What’s the problem with her feelings for you?” Mo Sanshan asked.
“She’s been pursuing me in a frenzy, saying that I’m very handsome! The fact is clear as day! But the desperate way she’s wooing me is suffocating me to no end! Now, I just feel like I can’t breathe with this choke hold. The way she’s wooing me… It’s a little… A little… You know what I mean, right?” Wang Ke said with great frustration.
Mo Sanshan: “?????”
Mo Sanshan looked at Wang Ke with widened eyes. What the hell did I just hear?Zhang Li’er wooing you like crazy?How many times have the two of you met in private?
Zhang Zhengdao was also doubtful, but he had no evidence against Wang Ke. Damn, hearing you boast like this makes me want to wash my ears, or else they will start rotting!
“Wang… Wang Ke, you need to account for the things you say! You must not speak recklessly like that!” Mo Sanshan responded awkwardly.
“How was it reckless? Why don’t you ask Zhang Li’er? She ordered her juniors to chase us relentlessly on the way over; she’s trying to win my heart! But I already have a girlfriend. I’m such a single-hearted person; how can I be moved by another person? Do you know how much hardship I went through?” Wang Ke rebutted anxiously.
“Okay, relax! Take your time to tell me!” Mo Sanshan tried to calm Wang Ke down.
“It’s the same even if I speak slowly,” Wang Ke said before he continued with his complaints, “See, the Golden Crow Sect disciples have surrounded me tonight. They won’t let me go, and have also asked me to wait for Zhang Li’er to arrive by daylight to talk things out! You know how I am! I have an empathic soft spot! What if she comes and bawls in front of me, or even threatens to kill herself? I can’t just wrong my girlfriend just to appease her, but I also can’t bear to see women cry. Oh, such a difficult spot I’m in!”

Mo Sanshan: “………………………!”
Wang Ke continued complaining, “You know what happened not long ago. Everyone left after God Wang Company’s inauguration ended, while only Zhang Li’er wanted to stay. She waited outside our sect for two days and two nights, all to see me! What say you? Would it be advisable to see her in that situation? Even a smidge of hope would be harmful to her; that’s why I didn’t show up. I want her to give up. This is better for the both of us; it will help her get those feelings for me out of her system. But who would have thought she would become more desperate for me!”
Mo Sanshan: “………………………!”
Not long before—shortly after God Wang Company had opened—Zhang Li’er had chased after Murong Luguang like a madwoman and pummeled him for a good while; she was shouting for Wang Ke at the time. She even waited outside the sect for two days and two nights; Chen Tianyuan had to act personally in order to convince her to leave.
Mo Sanshan was unsure about what had happened back then. And now, he heard it straight from the horse’s mouth. Could Zhang Li’er really be desperately wooing Wang Ke?
It somehow adds up. Murong Luguang tried everything he could to gain her favor but failed, while God Wang Company started. Zhang Li’er was instead all smiles every time she saw Wang Ke. She even told her younger brother and her juniors to serve as security staff for God Wang Tower.
If she had no special feelings for Wang Ke, why would she do so much?
She even took part in the ribbon-cutting ceremony, representing the Golden Crow Sect. She pulled the entire Golden Crow Sect to back Wang Ke, all for his sake?
All this pointed to the fact that Zhang Li’er was courting Wang Ke!
Has the world changed?Ladies are going after guys nowadays?Plus, she’s a Pinnacle Golden Core cultivator and a rare beauty, yet she’s after this good-for-nothing gigolo?Ptoeey, calling him ‘gigolo’ would be a compliment.Damn, why didn’t I have such fortune when I was younger?
Most importantly, this bast*rd Wang Ke refuses it with a really annoying face… Makes me want to punch him!
“Hall Lord Mo, now you know how difficult it’s been for me, right? I’ve already rejected her openly, but she’s relentless! That’s why I hope you can be a mediator between us! Help me convince her to stop, okay?” Wang Ke asked, looking at Mo Sanshan hopefully.
Mo Sanshan: “………………………!”
“Please help me and talk to Zhang Li’er. Tell her that this handsome appearance is only skin deep; otherwise, I’m just a good-for-nothing! Tell her to forget about me!” Wang Ke requested.
Mo Sanshan: “………………………!”
Zhang Zhengdao covered his mouth due to a gag reflex after hearing such disgusting claims. I really can’t listen to this anymore. He’s just too shameless!
