Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 111

Chapter 111: Envy
Shiyi paused for a moment before adding, “Brother, don’t you think it would be nice if you could share some of your Xian Bing with our Master? No matter what, our Master fed us for many years until he became a poor ghost. We should share something delicious with him, right?”

After listening to Shiyi’s words, Liushiliu thought for a while, nodded, and said, “Brother, you are right. I will give the rest of Xian Bing to Master.”

After saying that, Liushiliu walked towards the cave. Behind him, Shiwu looked at Shiyi and asked, “Why did you send him to see Master?”

Hearing his question, Shiyi looked at Shiwu and asked, “Do you know where he got those Xian Bing?”

Shiwu was present when Jian Liu ordered Liushiliu to protect Duan Yixin. Naturally, he knew who gave Liushiliu those Xian Bing. He nodded and said, “I know.”

After a moment of silence, Shiwu raised his eyebrows and asked, “You sent him to Master because those Xian Bing were from Miss Duan?”

Shiyi smiled slightly and said, “Smart.”

When Shiyi and Shiwu were talking, Liushiliu was already standing in front of the cave. He cupped his fists and said, “Master, this subordinate requested permission to see you.”

In the cave, Xuan Ruiquan heard Liushiliu’s words, opened his eyes, and said, “Come in.”

With Xuan Ruiquan’s permission, Liushiliu walked into the cave. When he came in, Xuan Ruiquan and others saw the bag in his hand and looked at him thoughtfully. Being stared at by his Master and superiors, Liushiliu was having difficulty breathing due to their oppressive aura.

Xuan Ruiquan noticed the subtle change in Liushiliu’s expression and glanced at Jian Yi. Looking at his Master’s eyes, Jian Yi knew what Xuan Ruiquan wanted. He then turned to look at Jian Er, Jian Wu, and Jian Liu. When the other three received his signal, they all hid their auras.

Seeing that Liushiliu’s expression had improved, Jian Yi walked toward him. He patted Liushiliu on the shoulder and asked, “Brother, why do you want to see Master? Do you have anything to give to our Master?”

Although Jian Yi spoke to him very kindly, Liushiliu did not dare to be presumptuous. He knelt in front of Xuan Ruiquan, lowered his head, and said, “Master, this is for you.”

After saying that, Liushiliu handed Jian Yi the cloth bag. Holding the cloth bag, Jian Yi looked at Xuan Ruiquan and waited for his decision.

Xuan Ruiquan looked at Liushiliu and asked, “Are you the one who was ordered by Jian Liu to protect Xin–”

He paused before calling Duan Yixin ‘Xin’er’. Thinking that no one knew about his relationship with Duan Yixin in his previous life, Xuan Ruiquan changed his words, “—Xin Niang?”

The pause of this second was not obvious, but when he called Duan Yixin’ Xin Niang’, Jian Yi and the others were stunned. As far as they knew, their Master had only visited Duan Yixin once a few years ago. The two didn’t even meet each other or speak.

With their current relationship as strangers, calling Duan Yixin’ Xin Niang’ is very inappropriate. However, none of them dared to say a word.

After a moment of silence, Liushiliu came back to his senses. He controlled his expression and said respectfully, “Yes, Master. Captain Jian Liu indeed ordered this subordinate to protect Miss Duan.”

After getting the answer, Xuan Ruiquan stared at Liushiliu silently. Standing next to Liushiliu, Jian Yi clearly saw the envy in his Master’s eyes. He thought he saw it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes and looked at his Master again.

When he looked at his Master’s cold eyes, Jian Yi thought, ‘I must be too tired these days. When I have time, I should get a good night’s sleep.’

Just as Jian Yi was thinking about it, Xuan Ruiquan said, “Jian Yi, bring the things here.”

Jian Yi walked up to him and handed the cloth bag to Xuan Ruiquan. Opening the bag, Xuan Ruiquan saw a few pieces of Xian Bing, a small porcelain jar, and a small money pouch. Looking at the small porcelain jar, he took it and handed the rest to Jian Yi.

“Give it back to him.” He said while staring at the small porcelain jar in his hand.

Seeing that his Master’s attention was focused on the small porcelain jar, Jian Yi did not disturb him. He returned the cloth bag to Liushiliu and said, “Brother, get some sleep when you have time.”

Liushiliu took the cloth bag and said, “Yes, Commander.”

After Liushiliu left the cave, Jian Yi turned to look at Xuan Ruiquan. He cupped his fists and said, “Master, please rest early. We will stand guard outside.”

“Mhm.” Xuan Ruiquan nodded but didn’t look away from the small porcelain jar.

When Jian Yi and others left the cave, Xuan Ruiquan carefully kept the small porcelain jar. He then sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and practiced his internal energy.

Outside the cave, Liushiliu returned to his corner and sat down. As soon as his butt touched the hard ground, Shiyi and the other secret guards approached him.

Knowing what they wanted to know, Liushiliu said calmly, “Master only took a small jar of ointment and gave the rest back to me. Do all of you want to try the Xian Bing?”

When he asked, Shiyi and the other secret guards nodded like chickens pecking at rice. Seeing their eager expressions, Liushiliu felt that he should buy some food and share it with his brothers when he went out to perform missions in the future.

Anyway, Duan Yixin gave him a lot of money when he left Yunshan Village. It should be enough to buy some food for his brothers. After sharing the remaining Xian Bing with other shadow guards, they took turns sleeping.

Fourteen hours later, Xuan Ruiquan opened his eyes and left the cave. When he came out, the secret guards had rested and regained their strength.

Looking at the energetic shadow guards, Xuan Ruiquan said calmly, “Let’s go.”
