Chapter 272 - Qin Yu's Petiness

The sword in Su Ci Yi's hand glistened and vibrated upon the call of her soul. She coveted this sword for a long time, and now it was in her hands. The sword already responded on her soul call and bided with her cultivation core.

When Su Ci Yi thought that she will have a hard time possessing this weapon yet the old man just nonchalantly pushed it to her. Seeing she knew how to handle it and even unfolding its own strength, Master Tang didn't hesitate to hand it to her.

Su Ci Yi couldn't even be happier than having this thing as her possession.

"Master Tang knows how to preserve the sword well. It has been a long time yet that sword's gleamed as if it was just forged yesterday. Not even a tint of blemishes and rust."

Sang Shui looked at the metal weapon in Su Ci Yi's hand, which she had been taking care of.

Qin Yu snickered on the sideline. Even if Sang Shui knew how to flatter her with that mouth of his, he couldn't be compared to him. He had made an arrangement with that old master as he offered a few antic relics in his possession. The old man seemed to get hooked and in exchange, he handed the weapon.

In this world, there is no such thing as free. Everything should have their own value to exchange and offer.

"We will go back this afternoon to that village. I'll just settle my position first."

Su Ci Yi final instructed her teammates.

She can't just leave the set hanging when she disappeared. Since her appearance and character are important in the set and it will not hurt to delay their return for a few hours.

"Where are you going again?"

Qin Yu's dark tone echoed within the four walls of the room.

Both Sang Shui and Jing Sang looked at him. Mai was with Qin Tao and her attention wasn't on the group. Su Ci Yi remained calmed and was still admiring her sword's beauty. 

"I'm going back there for a moment. I need to see it through."

"Back at that village?"

Su Ci Yi hummed in confirmation.

'She just came back and was going back again?' How could Qin Yu let her out of his own grasp again this time? With the resolution that will follow her no matter what, and would stick to her side no matter what, an idea appeared in Qin Yu's mind.

"I'm coming with you." 

Jing Sang raised an eyebrow while Sang Shui continued to sip his remaining tea. Su Ci Yi didn't show her confirmation, rather she stood up and appeared to be leaving.

"Where are you going again?" Qin Yu asked in a hurried tone as he himself raised on his seat.

"I'm going to the bathroom!" She hissed at him and immediately went out.

Qin Yu was struck dumbstruck on the sideline. After a few seconds of recuperating, he went back to his seat. But the mocking laugh of Jing Sang didn't escape his ears. He didn't get bothered by it at all. Instead, an insidious laugh appeared on his face.

He soon called out to his servant to serve a certain dish that he had to prepare earlier.

Since he was the owner of the house, it would be rude not to take care of his guests, ah.

With that, Sang Shui and Jing Sang saw an exquisite snack offered on their table. There were two desserts. It was a 'Sweet Homemade Waffles' and 'Mushroom and Sausage Lasagnetta'. Both were rich in milk content. Seeing it served, Qin Yu's smile flashed hideously. He picked a few waffles and bit it himself; then offered the rest to the group.

Jing Sang was the first one to pick. And when he tasted its sweet flavor, his hand couldn't stop picking the rest. Sang Shui only ate two or three, and Jing Sang didn't let anything be left on the plate. He was the one who entirely finished the whole serving.

It was the first time he ate this kind of delicacies.

Since coming here, Jing Sang never backs down to all the foods that had been offered to him. Eating this for the first time, he couldn't help but to ponder to the people in this land though seemed weak but is creative in the art of making foods.

They were really talented in this area.

***

One hour later, Qin Yu who had been preparing his bag and necessities on the ongoing expedition heard a commotion downstairs. Not reacting to the commotion, he even hummed a few upbeat songs.

Su Ci Yi came knocking on his door with a worried expression on her face.

"Do you have spare medicines?"

"What will you use it for?"

"Jing Sang vomited and was already coming back and forth to the bathroom. His face is pale right now and I believe we can't still go back yet unless he's feeling alright again."

"I see. The servants should know about it." Qin Yu answered as he went back to his focus. Su Ci Yi went out to find the servant Qin Yu had mentioned about. And when Jing Sang had been given a proper medicine, an hour had passed, and the man was sweating all over.

Such a big man to have that kind of appearance, sickness will really strike anyone regardless of build.

" You've overeaten that was why you had been like this" Sang Shui diagnose as if he really knew Jing Sang's condition.

Pale with a stomachache and was shivering nonstop, Sang Shui thought it might have something to do with the snacks earlier and the first culprit that appeared into his mind is Qin Yu.

He might have done something on the snacks earlier.

But then again, Qin Yu and Sang Shui ate the snacks. If he tampered it, should he also suffer?

Sang Shui looked with a complicated look at Jing Sang. But then again, he deserved it. Sometimes, Jing Sang needed to suffer his lesson in order to gain reflection on his actions.
