My Master Disconnected Yet Again

“Lan Hua!” Lan Yu was the first one to get up. Although he had no more strength left, he still glared angrily at his brother. “You haven’t changed at all. You’re still mean and despicable!” He had even enlisted people to help him!

“In what way am I mean and despicable?” Lan Hua’s anger had reached a boiling point as well. As both of them had no energy left to fight, they could only engage in verbal sparring. “Wasn’t it you who deceived me into becoming a fiend?”

“So what if I did?” Lan Yu got even angrier. “What you did to me was even worse. I won’t forgive you even if you die a thousand times. I should never have let you off!”

“What did I do?” Lan Hua returned his glare. “You’re my only brother, I guided you in your cultivation practice, and even let you rule the kingdom of Yun Zhe. What did I do wrong?”

“What did you do? You have the cheek to ask me!” Lan Yu snorted. “You know very well what you did.”

“Tell me! What did I do?”

“Don’t tell me you had no hand in what happened to Wen Qin?”

“Wen Qin?” Lan Hua looked baffled. “Who’s he?”

“You bastard!” Lan Yu exploded in anger. He charged towards Lan Hua and grabbed his neck. “You’re still trying to pretend? You’re not fit to be a human being!”

Lonemoon directed a meaningful glance at Chen Ge. They went up to the brothers and dragged them apart.

The duel between the two emperors had degenerated into a cat fight! Even the female immortals guarding Heavenly Gate were appalled. Was this… really our emperor?

“Let go of me!” Lan Hua yelled, struggling to break free. “I want to get to the bottom of the matter today. Why am I not fit to be a human being? What have I got to do with that Wen fellow?”

“When have you ever behaved like a human being?” Lan Yu retorted. “Wen Qin’s my Dao partner. You dare tell me you don’t know her?”

“Dao partner?” Lan Hua looked blank. Then wearing a look of surprise, he asked, “When did you have a Dao partner? Haven’t you always been single?”

“And it was all thanks to you!” Lan Yu eyes reddened in anger. “Wen Qin and I were together for three thousand years. If it were not for you, she would not have abandoned me at our dual cultivation ceremony. She only wanted to marry you! All the time you were in seclusion, she waited outside your door, thinking about you everyday!

Lan Hua was dumbstruck by this revelation. “I… had no idea about this?” Thinking back, the only thing he could remember that there was a commotion during one of his seclusions, so he had set up an isolating array formation. Could Wen Qin be the person outside?” I know nothing about this matter. I don’t know anybody called Wen Qin.”

“All right! Even if I overlook that matter,” Lan Yu took a deep breath to calm himself before continuing, “What about Yun Yu, Ruo Shuang and Qiao Zhen?”

“Huh?” Lan Hua looked even more baffled. “Who are they?”

“Don’t pretend! Yun Yu is my cousin. We grew up together; Ruo Shuang was my fiance in the lower realm; Qiao Zhen was my junior sister! You dare tell me you don’t remember any of them!”

“I really don’t remember…”

“Shut up! I gave you many chances but you kept ruining my marriages! If you really loved them, I have nothing to say. But you played with their feelings, causing them to leave me. You stole their hearts but you refuse to marry them. You’re a scumbag, a degenerate!”

“Oh…” Everyone was shocked. They understood what happened. Lan Yu had been cuckolded by his lovers! They turned to look at the person responsible.

“Why are you looking at me?” Lan Hua was hopping mad. “I didn’t do anything. From the time I was in the lower realm, I’ve been practicing my cultivation. I was either in seclusion or doing experiential training. I’ve no impression of those people he mentioned.”

He did not know any of them, let alone abandon them. From young, he had only been interested in cultivation practice, how could he be involved in such matters of the heart? He had even less contact with the opposite sex. The only female he knew besides his mother were Good Heart and the bunch of girls from the Invincible Sect. He really did not know those girls that Lan Yu mentioned!

“Then what about Xue Zhi? Lan Yu asked, “Don’t tell me you’ve even forgotten her?”

“Xue Zhi! That sea hare demon?” Lan Hua nodded, this one he knew. “Isn’t that the demon you were rearing? What happened to her?” Lan Yu loved that little demon. He had brought it along with him to the heavenly realm. When Lan Hua started his fiendish cultivation that little demon was already an exalted immortal.

“She became like that after listening to you!”

“…” Became like what?

“You knew that sea hares have no gender, they only select their gender once they have confirmed their Dao partner. If you had not told it…” Lan Yu gritted his teeth and continued, “It would have not become a male!”

“Oh!”

This was getting exciting. Everyone was stunned at this development!

Lan Yu must be the world’s most unfortunate younger brother!

Lan Hua looked dumbstruck. He knew that Lan Yu loved that sea hare. “He became a male, how could this be…” He paused as he recalled something. Thousands of years ago, he vaguely remembered someone asking him whether it was better to be a man or woman. Being a full-blooded male, he naturally chose the former! A man was strong and could fight, what could be better than that!

Could that person who had asked him the question be the sea hare?

He turned pale with the thought.

Lan Yu’s temper rose. He had reared this sea hare for so long with the intention of making it his wife. Just because of his one word, it became a male! Whenever he thought about this, he felt like chopping Lan Hua into pieces.

It had been that way since they were in the lower realm. Whenever Lan Hua came out of seclusion, Lan Yu’s girl friend would transfer her affections to his brother and abandon him. Every time… without fail.

“You’ve done this wife-snatching thing too many times. Turning you into a fiend was much too lenient of me.”

“Brother Yu…” Lan Hua seemed at a loss. “I knew nothing about this. How would I know she… Hey! Can the rest of you say something. It wasn’t my fault!”

Lan Hua looked imploringly at his teammates.

They immediately stepped back. Even Chen Ge, who was holding onto Lan Yu, dropped his hands. Everyone acted like they did not know him!

“You…” They were openly betraying him!

Lan Yu, who had recovered some of his immortal qi, stepped forward. “Do you have anything to say now?”

“…” Lan Hua was speechless.

The onlookers retreated further as if wanting nothing to do with him. They all stood behind…. Lan Yu.

“Emperor Lan Yu, why don’t you resume your fight? This has nothing to do with me.”

“Every family has a black sheep, I understand your feelings! Please continue!”

“Do you need weapons? Take mine!”

“Do you want some melon seeds? You need energy to fight.”

Lan Hua: “…”

Whose side are you people on? He was innocent! Apart from exchanging a few words with the sea hare demon, he had not even spoken to the others!

“Ah Hua!” A sweet and gentle female voice called out.

Lan Yu, who was preparing to do battle, trembled on hearing the voice.

Everyone: “…”

Lan Yu was about to put on another green hat ¹ !
