Wen Jing laid down on his back and probed: "Shixiong, if the demonic cultivator has something planned out this time, what do you think he's going to do?"

"What are your opinions?" Jun YanZhi carefully moved closer.

Wen Jing silently pondered for a bit before he replied: "I've heard that Sky Balance sect brews a type of wine which is fragrant and flavorful. It consists of many types of spiritual herbs and is often used to entertain guests. If the demonic cultivator placed his blood inside this type of alcohol, wouldn't that cause a disaster?"

It was never written in the novel how the demonic cultivator did it, but many people had found and listed out many hints from the novel. Poisoning the wine was one of the methods.

Jun YanZhi lightly laughed: "A year ago, the demonic cultivator struck the gra.s.s and alerted the snake.[1]  Sky Balance sect must have some thorough countermeasures. Poisoning the wine seems feasible theoretically, but it is filled with complications in reality. It's not that easy."

Wen Jing vaguely nodded: "Shixiong is right."

"Even if that demonic cultivator harms people, it isn't certain that you'll be harmed. Don't think too much."

Wen Jing tried to probe again: "If shixiong was the demonic cultivator, how would you plan your move?"

When Jun YanZhi heard his words, his expression changed slightly before it immediately returned to normal. In a gentle voice, he said: "If it were me, I would convert the blood into beads of fog that couldn't be seen with the naked eye and scatter them in a place that was densely packed with people. It would be inhaled into people's bodies without anyone noticing."

Wen Jing's heart sank.

There had been someone to mention blood fog as a method. Wen Jing also believed that this was the most plausible, but this method was hard to investigate and even harder to stop. It was hopeless.

Wen Jing quietly said: "If it's like this, why doesn't shixiong bring it up with the sect heads? Everyone can take precautions to prevent an accident. I'm young, and my words hold no weight. No one would believe me, but shixiong is different."

Jun YanZhi smiled and said: "The demonic cultivator might not do anything. You don't have to be so worried. Even if the demonic cultivator is planning something, we can't all be scared into shrinking back our necks and clamping our tails, not being able to live normally. There's still me. I promise you that nothing will happen to anyone from Hui Shi peak."

Wen Jing nodded: "Shixiong is right."

Even Jun YanZhi, the person that he was the closest to, didn't take his words seriously, then other people more so wouldn't believe his words.

Now, he could only think of a way to drag out the demonic cultivator early.

In the original novel, an accident would happen in these few days. Two people would be killed in the middle of the night. It was only mentioned briefly, but it held great importance in the comment section.

The killer of the two people was never found and was a.s.sumed to be the demonic cultivator. Then, the two dead people must have considerable significance in order for him to personally make a move.

Jun YanZhi used his arm to support his head; his obsidian-black hair flowed down. Lying sideways, he scanned Wen Jing: "Shidi, you're not small anymore. Have you considered finding someone to dual cultivate?"

Wen Jing's heart only contained thoughts about finding the demonic cultivator and completely didn't care about what Jun YanZhi said: "No. Shixiongs haven't dual cultivated with anyone. How could it be my turn?"

Jun YanZhi laid face up on the bed. His eyes gazed at the dark ceiling: "What if I dual cultivate with you?""

"Eh?" Wen Jing froze, "What?"

"Your physique leans towards warmth, and my physique leans towards cold. It's perfect for mutual fine-tuning. Our cultivation level will also rise faster." Jun YanZhi's tone of voice was very light and calm as if the matter didn't concern himself. It was as if he was just discussing matters about cultivation.

"This, this seems to be a bit hasty and heedless." Wen Jing's scalp felt as though it had been electrocuted. Waves of numbness started spreading. The heat made his blood penetrate through his skin, making his face red and his ears scarlet. "Dual cultivating, this kind of thing isn't that simple……"

Sorry, his thoughts were too conservative. Turns out, it wasn't that Jun shixiong didn't have a girl whom he liked. It was that he just couldn't find a suitable dual cultivation physique?! How is this different from people who get married just to pa.s.s on their genes?

His body was very compatible with his, so he should dual cultivate with him? Could it get any more straightforward than this?

"Consider it carefully. If you think it's feasible, then we can report it to shifu together."

"I, this……Shixiong, why don't you consider it more……" Wen Jing stuttered. He was so uneasy that a layer of sweat formed.

Jun YanZhi closed his eyes and turned around: "Sleep. Don't think too much."

"……Okay."

With his heart frightened out of his chest, Wen Jing laid down. Eventually, his heart calmed down, and sleep gradually came. Not long after, he fell into a sweet black dreamscape and lost consciousness.

He slept without interruptions till the next day. Wen Jing rubbed his eyes that couldn't be opened, his arms a bit sore. His arms, that were covered with sleeping clothes, were outside of the thick and heavy cotton blanket. Wen Jing lowered his head and glanced down.

In his arms laid a curled up, warm body.

Jun YanZhi's scattered hair stuck to the side of his face. He was lying in the crook of his arm, unconsciously cuddling him.

Wen Jing's brain stopped working.

Just what was this……

A few shameful scenes ran through his head. His heart tightened. Did he forcefully drag shixiong into his embrace at night, or did shixiong accidentally move over?!

Wen Jing's heart and thoughts were a mess. He carefully pulled out his arm. Originally, it was an upright shixiong and shidi relationship. How did things progress in an unpredictable direction?

The pulling motion seemed to have disrupted Jun YanZhi. It also made Wen Jing's eyelid twitch. Jun YanZhi moved and rubbed his head full of long hair, half sitting up.

Wen Jing awkwardly pulled away and spoke with a guilty conscience: "Morning shixiong."

"……Morning." Jun YanZhi didn't seem to be fully awake. His clothing was loose and revealed a large portion of his hard chest. He carelessly pulled his clothing: "I……felt cold last night. I didn't know what it was and just leaned over. Did it cause you to not sleep well?"

"No, it's fine." Wen Jing shook his head in a fl.u.s.ter, leaving the bed and getting dressed in a hurry. The Three Yang physique was a natural-born stove. The big snake and tortoise both loved it, especially in the winter. As snow piled outside the window, the two pets loved to cuddle with him. Who knew that this physique was so welcoming. Even Jun shixiong liked it and wanted to dual cultivate with him……

This reason successfully made it impossible to refute.

Changing into clean clothes, Wen Jing calmed down a little. He threw the awkwardness to the back of his head: "Shixiong, I want to stroll around Sky Balance sect today. Are you going?"

"Sure." Jun YanZhi indifferently answered. That voice was so distracted that it made people think even if a girl were to asked right now, "Let's dual cultivate." Jun Yanzhi would agree.

The terrain of Sky Balance sect was complex. The snowy mountains were continuous. The scenery was vastly different from Xun Yang mountain range. The Sky Balance sect's disciple in charge of hospitality led the way in front. Leading all the disciples to fly in the mountain range, it didn't take long for them to tour the Stone of Three Immortals, the Ice Mountain Hot Spring, and other scenic areas.

Between the snow mountains, from time to time, little snow heaps would appear, moving rapidly. Little green heads would also emerge.

"That's our Sky Balance sect's ice mountain blue ginseng. Because of their old age, they are larger than the usual ones. Living s.p.a.ces have already been prepared for everyone. As long as you pull a few, it would be greatly beneficial for your cultivation." The Sky Balance sect's disciple who had a full face of smiles, continued, "Our large snow mountains aren't as elegant and exquisite as the scenic views in your sects, but it looks endless with layers and layers of mountains one after another. It makes one's heart broaden as well.”

A female disciple that stood next to Wen Jing gently said: "I've heard that the Ice Mountain Hot Spring is the sacred place of Sky Balance sect. The spiritual energy is rich in the spring water. If one bathes often in the spring, they would be able to keep one's look forever and would even look younger. Their skin would also be more tender than normal."

Another female disciple quietly asked: "How can people just casually enter that place? Didn't you notice just now? There's a boundary protecting it."

"I also thought so……"

Unwittingly, the setting sun hung on the edge of the sky, calm and warm. It covered the white snow and enveloped the peaks. The group of people returned in the afterglow and saw colorful clothing moving. A few women, treading on the snow, slowly came over.

The guys started to quietly talk.

"Who are they?"

"I don't know."

"They seem to be the people from ShuiYue Palace."

Wen Jing's gaze lingered on the foremost girl. He couldn't help but take a few more glances.

A beautiful, mesmerizing smile and skin whiter than snow, the beautiful appearance held a sliver of familiarity. It was attractive to the point of bewitching people, making it hard for people to hold back.

"Isn't this the 9th palace master of ShuiYue palace?"

"So it is the number one beauty in the world……My wishes have been fulfilled."

Wen Jing widened his eyes and inwardly sighed in admiration.

This was Shui Su, the 9th palace master of ShuiYue palace who almost succeeded in seducing the male lead in the original story? Jun YanZhi's att.i.tude towards her was ambiguous and unclear. This resulted in people having a hard time trying to form theories and conjectures.

Shui Su landed, her posture elegant as she quietly watched the setting sun by the cliff. She didn't acknowledge the group of people. A few women surrounded her and enjoyed the snow-filled scenery. They didn't know that dozens of men were gathered behind them.

Wen Jing threw a sidelong glance at Jun YanZhi and couldn't calm his gossipy heart. He quietly said: "This palace master is truly the most beautiful in this world. No one can compare with her gracefulness."

"You think she looks beautiful?" Jun YanZhi indifferently glanced at her and thought for a while. With some difficulty, he said: "Her age seems to be a bit big, and there have already been a few men to dual cultivate with her……"

Wen Jing opened his mouth and then closed it again.

In the novel, it was said that Jun YanZhi never said bad words behind people's backs……

That night, Wen Jing slept especially deeply. At midnight, loud warning sounds spread through his head. It felt as though his head was about to be punctured.

"Traces of the demonic cultivator has been found! Asking host to act quickly!"

Wen Jing jumped up, his head heavy, with a hard to ignore headache.

"The demonic cultivator is currently making a move. This chance can't be lost. It may never come again."

Wen Jing groped around for the person on the bed, but his side was ice cold and empty. He froze slightly. He lowered his head to glance at himself and saw that his sleeping clothes were loose and even his pants were hanging loosely.

The clear moonlight came in from the window. Wen Jing's thoughts were slightly messy. He didn't have the time to think about where Jun YanZhi went. He got dressed in a rush and went out with his sword.

He held up a talisman in midair. Soon after, he suddenly became invisible.

This talisman had a background.

After the interpeak compet.i.tion, Wen Jing could choose a high grade weapon and a high grade technique. The Five Great sect compet.i.tion was just around the corner. Under these kind of circ.u.mstances, most people would choose a weapon for fighting, a weapon for defense, a sword technique, or a sword talisman to either increase defense or offense abilities.

But Wen Jing's thought process was different. He thought that there was no need.

First, after Foundation Building, the sect would create a tailored sword for him. Dua Xuan would also personally pa.s.s on a sword technique. More importantly, Wen Jing downright didn't care about what rank he would get in the Five Great sect compet.i.tion. He just wanted to drag out the demonic cultivator.

In the original novel, there was a Qi Refining stage disciple who had three invisibility talismans. These talismans were crafted by a Nascent Soul level cultivator. After it was used, as long as Wen Jing stood across a foot away, even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator wouldn't be able to sense him.

The family of this disciple had already fallen, and life was difficult. These three talismans were of no use to him. Instead, he wanted some things that were beneficial towards cultivation so Wen Jing used a high grade weapon and high grade technique to trade for the three invisibility talisman.

Now, with this invisibility talisman, no one in Sky Balance sect could sense his existence.

He followed the arrow in his mind and quickly pa.s.sed through the mountain peaks. He, himself, didn't even know where he was.

Suddenly, a miserable scream resonated through the night!

Tn: I'm sorry T^T. I'm a very irresponsible translator. I got demotivated a while back and decided to take a short break and didn't realize how long had pa.s.sed since the last update…… but I'm back. In the future, if there is ever a time in which I will take longer than month to update Who Dares Slander My Senior Brother, I will first give a heads up.
