Chapter 423 : Late Night Rendezvous
“If he was merely a useless person, then how many times would the people secretly targeting him have already tried attacking? How could he still be alive today?!”
Xi Jue said, “You mean that he has some secret powers next to him? But why have I never seen them?”
Ning Xuemo nodded her head and said, “Must be! And they must be incredibly powerful! Otherwise, they couldn’t be this mysterious and not leave behind a single trace. I believe that there are a lot of factions that oppose him, but they were all suppressed by his forces. This is why people are so fearful and respectful to him.”
Xi Jue clenched his fist slightly. Bright King Clan’s elders had all already said the same thing.
Ning Xuemo continued her analysis, “Also, this person has a natural aura of respect and dignity. You could tell with just one look that he’s a leader, not a regular fortune-teller or painter.”
In her previous life, she had also met many famous artists. They had an arrogant air about them, but that was the natural arrogance of them, who believed themselves to be culturally advanced. It was not like Han Shanyue’s aura at all…
Ning Xuemo believed that even Obama or George Bush could not have this type of aura! This loftiness was not something that could be bought or cultivated, but rather, it was inborn! This type of grandeur that came from the bones was what was actually scary and these types of people generally had lots of power backing them up.
In her previous life, she had once met a mafia boss who had a similar kind of aura. However, compared with Han Shanyue, there was a huge discrepancy!
This person’s identity was definitely not low!
Xi Jue paused for a moment. “Leader? Then what would be his other identity? On this continent, I’ve seen all the leaders of every major power many times. I’ve never seen or heard any person like him…”
Ning Xuemo lightly said four words, “What about the Ancestor?”
Xi Jue stared foolishly at her for a second before immediately shaking his head. “Definitely not! What type of status is the Ancestor? Why would he come to Vast Sky Empire to be an insignificant Heavenly Teacher? This type of status isn’t even worthy of wiping his feet!” Looking at Ning Xuemo, he wanted to continue to speak, but stopped.
Ning Xuemo knew that the rest of his words would not be good, but still needed to hear the rest of it so that she could better determine how to handle this situation. Therefore, she stared at him. “Just say what you want to say! Don’t hum and haw; it isn’t manly!”
Xi Jue was stimulated by her “it’s not manly” phrase and immediately continued his train of thought, “The Ancestor’s position isn’t just a normal type of respectful status. And he had never had any feelings of emotions or love. He had never had any interactions with any girls. Even those girls that follow him on his tours are merely there to act as pretty adornments. He had never spoken to them more than three phrases in the years they had been with him. Do you know what status those girls have?”
Ning Xuemo had never heard of this and shook her head slightly. “What type of identity? At m the geniuses of countries…”
Xi Jue shook his head and sighed. “Not that simple. Some of the girls are, of course, psychokinesis geniuses. Others have very high statuses. For instance, Nangong family’s legitimate daughter, Heavenly Joy Sect leader’s daughter, and even our Bright King clan had sent someone, my half-sister. Even the Imperial Family sent a princess…”
Ning Xuemo blinked. “So it turns out that so many sects and countries all sent spies to follow him… This is also good. By sending people to follow him, you’ll be able to know his path of travel more easily.”

I don’t think that’s the only idea that the families had in mind when they sent the girls to the Ancestor…
I’m in love with Kettle cooked chips. Where I live, USA, there’s this brand called Kettle that kettle cooks their chips, and it’s soooo good. It’s extra crispy, which I like. But kind of loud in a library… I’m partial to BBQ or just classic, but sour cream is pretty good too…
I really want to photoshop a picture of some ancient Chinese guy (Ibuki Satsuki draws them really nicely) as Han Shanyue onto a fat sheep (and then pin it to a dartboard). If anyone is up to do that… send them to [email protected]! I would love to see some fan art, and I’m sure Han Shanyue would “love it” too~
What’s your favorite drink? Coca-Cola? The Rio drinks in China that are like, alcoholic? Aloe Vera juice? Something else?
Pretty sure anyone and everyone would love to have the ancestor’s backing so agreed on not the only thing on their minds.
Most chips are super loud ~_~; being sneaky with them is so hard. Orz
Favourite drink? I’m pretty boring lmao, either water or tea would be my preference.
George Bush she says lol!!! Bahaha
Root beer is my favorite drink. Drank it for years.
Sigh, that very elusive ancestor has been kiss by her more than once already 🙈😏 thank you sooo much for the chapter!!✨✨
Kettle chips are pretty good. M&S chips is what we mostly buys. Thanks for this update.
Tea and plain water 😏
I think those powerful clans want to forge a relationship through marriage with ancestor. But what to do? He only want our Xuemo *chuckled*.
Thank you for the chapter 🙂
Ginger beer is the favourite. Not ginger ale, but actual grated ginger mixed with water and sweetened slightly.
Favorite drink is Gyokuro! 😋 Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Why are you using wasted words at the end of each arc when people pay an amount of money for you to translate no body cares if you like kettle corn or chocolate chip cookies that is wasted space that can be used for more arc
“Wasted words”? Who’s to be the judge of that?
“Arc”? I believe these are called chapters.
“Nobody cares”? Read all the other comments. Clearly, there are people who do. (Kettle chips, get it right. Those things are delicious)
“Wasted space that can be used for more arc”? Empty space after the job that “people pay an amount of money for” is done.
Literally every part of thine complaint is inaccurate if not irrelevant. It’s also rather mean and discouraging for the translator to see. Even if you aren’t interested in anything other than the story, you don’t have to “waste words” making small minded comments.
(I know, I know, I’m “wasting words” too. But at least what I’m saying should be fairly accurate.)
Smore’s Hot Chocolate is the single most delicious thing I have ever tasted.
Thank you for the chapter~
Unsweetened Ice Tea, Root Beer, Cream Soda, rich (and thick!) hot chocolate with whipped cream, tea (especially Jasmine) and Ginger Ale is a must when I’m sick. Teas most often, sodas only occasionally.
I love Dr. Pepper and Kettle brand jalapeno chips. So yummy!!! Thank you for the chapter-!
“Ning Xuemo believed that even Obama or George Bush could not have this type of aura!”
Obama ruined it, she should have said Linkin. Doesn’t he have a giant imposing statue? Much better than some Obama
*Lincoln
