Chapter 1 – The Trash Master and the Phoenix Maid

It was a cold night.
In a shabby hut, a candle was flickering.

Inside the simple and cramped room of the hut, there was only a single bed and chair.
Near the bedside, there was a young girl wearing a plain, white military uniform and gazing with a pained face full of tears at a young man on the bed.

The man, whose pale, blue eyes were shut closed, was lying in a coma.

Bang!

The door was pushed open.

A handsome man with a tall build appeared at the entrance of the door.

“Miss, he is probably already dead! I will arrange for people to clean up the corpse.
Time is of the essence.
Quickly, let’s go back home.
If the master of the main house finds out about this unexcused absence, you and I, both, will receive punishment.”

“No.
I will not go back.
I will stay here and accompany the young master,” said the young girl as she laid on the young master’s chest crying.

“Have you forgotten your responsibilities? Quickly come back with me,” said the handsome man as he frowned.

“Young master has had a sudden accident.
Besides, what will I even do after I arrive back at home? Young master gave me a home and raised me since I was little; and now, with him all by himself, how can I just leave him?” As the young girl said these words, tears were raining down from her tired face from her red eyes.

“You…” An angry scowl emerged on the handsome man’s face, but he could not say anything.

“Well-”

Just then, a slight groan was heard from the person lying on the bed.

The surprised girl suddenly stopped crying, rushed to the bed, and saw that the thin, pale young man had slowly begun to open his eyes.

“Did he wake up?”

The two people in the room were stunned.

In fact, Su Yun had already woken up.
However, he had had a severe headache, so his whole body felt weak to the point where he was unable to move a muscle.

Even though the voice of her master was strange, she was very familiar with it.
The girl listened intently to the words the young master spoke, without missing a word.

“Qing Er? Is that really Qing Er? Impossible! Qing Er is already dead… but this voice… You can’t mistake it.”

Su Yun painfully recalled; as he remembered events from the past, his emotions burst out.

“Young master…,” the startled Qing Er said quietly and then cried out, “How great! You have finally woken up!”

Su Yun slowly opened his eyes, only to see a beautiful female face greeting him.

The girl’s face was flawless.
She had eyes that shimmered like precious stones, cherry-red lips, and was a simple yet flawless beauty that would bewitch and intoxicate anyone.

She was quite young -only about fifteen or sixteen- but her body was exquisitely graceful, with a well-endowed chest.
However, it was evident that she was still a child, as there were crystal-like tears on her face.
Su Yun could not help but pity her.

Su Yun stared intensely at the girl.

“Qing…Er? Is it really you?” Su Yun gawked.

“It is me… master, it’s me!” Qing Er grabbed her master’s freezing cold hands.
“Master, you had an accident.
As soon as I heard, I rushed over here.
How are you feeling? Do you feel better? Are you hurt anywhere else on your body?” Qing Er asked these questions, full of concern.

“Me?”

Su Yun looked at himself, puzzled

“What happened?

The familiar people; the familiar scenes.
Isn’t this the small hut that little Qing Er used to live in?

Hadn’t this room been sold already?

Furthermore, Qing Er, Isn’t she…”

Su Yun could not understand what was going on.
What’s more, his head became even dizzier.

“After eating it, while battling head-on with an intermediate spirit disciple, he still did not die! Hmph! So all that happens is that he remains a miserable wretch,” said the handsome man, beside Qing Er, under his breath.

“Ling Xuan Shi?” Su Yun could not recall anything, since his mind was still foggy.

Su Yun covered his head, “This terrible pain… this feeling… my memories seem so hazy.”

“Seems that Su Yun’s head is heavily injured,” said the handsome man under his breath.

“The damages, from the intermediate spirit disciple to the inside of your body, must not have been eliminated.
Eat some medicine and take a long rest, and you should recover within a few days,” Qing Er said.

As Su Yun stared at Qing Er’s beautiful little face, his heart twitched, and he suddenly reached for Qing Er’s hand, refusing to let go.

“Mas-Master…” Qing Er could not react.

Her reflex was to let go of the hand, but her heart wanted to remain like this.
The scene produced a lovely atmosphere between the two young people.

The handsome man was enraged.
He quickly took away Qing Er’s hand and said, “Outrageous! Su Yun! You cheap bastard! Even daring to touch Qing Er! I will hack you to death!”

After he finished speaking, he then proceeded to cut Su Yun’s head off.

Clang!

As the sword neared Su Yun, a bolt of spirit energy was shot out from Qing Er.
The man was forced back and was forced to use his own spirit power to counter the bolt.

“Mosha, what are you doing? He is my master! Why are you trying to hurt him?” Qing Er angrily shouted as she bit her teeth.

“Master? Only you think of him as master! But to everyone else, he is considered garbage, especially to the main house.
You still care about him? Do not forget, you are a promising person in the main house, but it’s the exact opposite for this guy.
This guy… you should quickly cut all ties with him!”

“Master has always taken care of me! I will not back down when it comes to supporting young master,” Qing Er said as she bit down firmly on her lip.

[TL she can’t have much more lip can she?!?]

“You need to understand compromise.
Look at this garbage: Already eighteen years old, and even with seven artifacts, he could not reach the spiritual realm! He does not even think about practice.
If he is not drinking wine, he is out gambling.
How is he any different from mud? I heard that you used to serve under him and even got beaten for it.
How do you still have feelings for this scum?! He is an ordinary man now! You and him are in two different worlds.
Do you understand now?” Mosha shouted as he lectured.

“You… don’t bad mouth my master!” Qing Er’s face reddened from anger and she shouted back, “Get out of my face!”

“Quickly, return to the main house,” Mosha replied.

“If you don’t get out, I will not leave here today,” Qing Er answered.

“You… Fine! Truly ignorant!” The man could only helplessly comply and quickly walked out of the room.

Bang!

The door was slammed shut.

A silence soon entered the broken home.

Like the calm after a storm.

Qing Er’s complexion finally lightened a bit.
After a bit more, she quickly went to the window of the room to look outside for Mosha.
Discovering that no one was watching, she quickly took out a grey bag from under her belt and placed it under Su Yun’s blanket.

However, as she was completing the action, a hand grabbed her arm.

Startled, Qing Er looked up to see Su Yun looking at her quizzically.

“What is this,” asked Su Yun.

“Money,” Qing Er whispered, scared that people outside could hear.

Every month, Qing Er would give Su Yun money to survive.

“Where did you get this money?”

“Didn’t Mosha tell Qing Er just now? The main house treats promising candidates very well, such as by giving them money.
Because I never finish spending it, I always just give the rest to Su Yun.”

As she said this, Qing Er’s head faced downwards and looked uneasy.

“You don’t even know how to lie,” Su Yun said as he shook his head, “300 is your monthly allowance, but you always give me all of it, don’t’ you?”

A surprised expression appeared on Qing Er’s face.

“How did master know that?”

“What day is it?” Su Yun asked.

“New Dynasty, Year 1001, March 3rd.”

After Su Yun heard this, he became silent.

“Master, what… is wrong,” Qing Er asked with a puzzled expression.

Suddenly, she was captured by a tight hug from Su Yun.

“Qing Er, I’m sorry,” Su Yun apologized.

It was a simple phrase, but it had been left unsaid for fifteen years.

Qing Er was completely shocked.
She simply could not understand her master’s actions.
After her master had had an accident, it seemed that he had become a changed man.

After a long time, she gently spoke, “Master, no matter what happens, you have to live.
Not just for your wife, but also for yourself.
You have to live on, okay?”

Su Yun nodded in response.

A light smile crept unto Qing Er’s face, as she turned to leave the room.

“Master, the hour is late.
In a moment, I will get some spirit doctors to look after you.
I have to quickly go back to the main house.
This time the house head
