Chapter 939: Doing Something Bad Out of Goodwill (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
The marriage between the two countries is an established fact. No matter how unwilling Princess Yunyang was, she could not disobey such an important matter. She could only use some small means to obtain the greatest freedom within the appropriate range.
Yang Yimo, who was still emitting the fragrance of flower petals, looked at Shen Ping and could not help but say, “Brother Shen, are you still thinking about the princess?”
Before Shen Ping could respond, she said to herself, “The princess is indeed a beauty. I’m ashamed of my inferiority to her. However, the princess has already married far away. If Brother Shen disturbs her, it won’t do her any good.”
Shen Ping understood what she meant. After all, the Yan Kingdom was not a Yun Kingdom. No matter how powerful Princess Yunyang’s methods were, she was only living under someone else’s roof. If a person like him, who had a night of fun, appeared, it would definitely affect her.
“What a pity.” He ignored Yang Yimo and shook his head with a sigh. If Princess Yunyang had not gotten married, he would have stayed with her no matter what to improve his strange beast talent. But now, he had not reached the point where he would do anything for his own benefit and give up all his bottom line.
Regardless of whether the other party was really with the Third Prince of the Yan Kingdom, since they were husband and wife in name, wouldn’t he be a third party if he went over?
Although the increase in his strange beast talent was indeed quite helpful to him, it was only icing on the cake. Comprehending and studying the power of fate was nothing more than wasting more time with his current strange beast talent.
Hearing this long sigh, Yang Yimo could not help but say in a low mood, “Brother Shen, if you really want, I can help arrange for you to be sent to the Princess. Now the Princess and the Third Prince of the Yan Kingdom are in their fief. Although the two of them have a status, they are not husband and wife.”
Shen Ping shook his head. “There’s no need. Let’s talk about it when we’re fated.”
“Ah…!” Yang Yimo was stunned. When she came back to her senses, Shen Ping had already disappeared, but her mood had surprisingly improved.
He returned to the garden mansion. Shen Ping put the matter of Princess Yunyang aside and opened his notebook to think. Before, he had intervened to change the fate of ordinary people. The rebound was not strong. At least with his current strength as a six-star Luminarist, he would not be affected at all. However, this also meant that he would lose the opportunity to experience the influence of fate.
It was impossible to understand death. From the beginning to the end, it was just a spectator’s perspective. So next, he intends to target the Luminarist.
In this world, every Luminarist was very noble. Even an ordinary Luminarist in the county had a huge influence on their connections. Like in the state capital, the Luminarist could even control the situation in the prefecture capital.
A big family like the Yang family could decide the life and death of ordinary people with a single word. Therefore, if he interfered and changed the fate of the Luminarist, how strong would the rebound be? Or rather, what changes would there be?
Shen Ping was still looking forward to it.
The next day, Yang Yimo came to the mansion. They chatted for a while. He then asked about some of the Luminarists in the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Lingzhou City. As one of the top three families in the state capital, the Yang family had a clear understanding.
Soon, Yang Yimo handed all the registered Luminarist information to Shen Ping. The Yang family could be said to have everything he wanted. They had never asked Shen Ping to do anything. Instead, they had always helped him with all her might.
Naturally, Shen Ping was also close to the Yang family.
Only when Yang Yimo came to the mansion would he meet her personally. He did not even meet the others who came to visit. In the entire state capital, only Yang Yi,o knew that he was already a six-star Luminarist. As for whether the Yang family knew, there was a high chance that they did.
Otherwise, they would not have spared no effort to help Shen Ping.
“Is there nothing else?” He memorized all the Luminarists on the booklet and returned it to Yang Yimo.
“No. The records here are all officially registered Luminarists. They basically cover the entire Lingzhou because as long as they are Luminarists, when they first light their Life Lamps, they will go to the county or prefecture capital to be guided by specialized Luminarists. Of course, there are also some other forces secretly nurturing them, but there are not many. If Brother Shen wants it, I’ll try my best to get it,” she said.
Shen Ping waved his hand. “No need. This is enough.”
“Okay.” Yang Yimo nodded and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Brother Shen, the Spirit Cleansing Festival that is held once every five years will soon be here. Do you have any plans?”
The Spirit Cleansing Festival was mainly to commemorate the deaths of the Luminarists who died while cleaning up the vengeful spirits. Every five years, it would be held not only in the Yun Country, but also in other countries. This was the only festival that the Luminarists and ordinary people shared.
However, it gradually evolved into the Lantern Festival.
In these few days, many men and women would go to the temple fair to pray for blessings and ask for marriage. Every time, many young men and women would marry on this day.
When Shen Ping heard this, he knew that Yang Yimo wanted him to accompany her to the lantern festival and watch the fun of the temple fair. Previously, he had always stayed in seclusion.
But this year is different. He intended to blend in anyway, so he smiled and said, “There are no plans. I’m not familiar with the temple streets in the city. You can take me to the temple fair then.”
Yang Yimo’s face lit up. “Okay, Brother Shen, we have a deal.”
…
Lv County, in the official office where the luminarist was, Shen Ping appeared silently. Under the night sky, his gaze quickly landed on a young life luminarist who was reading by the window. The other party had only lit a life lamp. The reason why he targeted this person was mainly because he had a lot of things to do.
