Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 430: Chapter 427 Heavenly Master 134

It’s really no wonder that Chen Qi was so shocked. The main reason is that Shuangshuang has been trying to restrain her temper since her rebirth, keeping a straight face and speaking very little. Seeing her suddenly losing her composure now, no wonder Chen Qi was shocked!

One must say, Chen Qi has been worrying himself sick over this disciple, Shuangshuang. Although as Heavenly Masters they don’t need to be overly enthusiastic, they also shouldn’t be so cold. Heavenly Masters need friends too.

Chen Qi is concerned that if Shuangshuang continues this way, she will be alone in the world without friends or family once he’s gone, given his old age, leaving him heartbroken just thinking about it.

The reason Chen Qi insisted on forcing Shuangshuang to take Dong Wentao as a disciple was because he saw that the kid had a good temperament, warm and enthusiastic, full of sunshine. Most importantly, Dong Wentao’s temperament was good enough to tolerate Shuangshuang’s foul temper.

Chen Qi immediately thought that Dong Wentao’s character was just perfect for getting along with his icy-cold disciple! If Dong Wentao could become Shuangshuang’s family and take over caring for her, Chen Qi could die peacefully!

It was precisely because of this thought that Chen Qi forced Shuangshuang to take Dong Wentao as a disciple. He calculated that no matter how aloof his precious disciple was, if she took Dong Wentao on, Shuangshuang’s serious nature would certainly ensure a serious teaching effort.

Once teaching a disciple, it’s inevitable to communicate often with Dong Wentao. Over time, Dong Wentao’s gentle and accommodating nature would surely win Shuangshuang’s approval, securing someone to continue caring for the disciple, eliminating the fear of her ending up lonely into death!

Only later did Dong Wentao inattentively not pay attention, carelessly using the Yin Yang Eye to drive onto the Yin Road, making Shuangshuang so disappointed she wanted to give up on him, which took Chen Qi by surprise. After giving it some thought, Chen Qi decided to let it go.

In truth, Chen Qi never wanted his precious disciple to be unhappy, but it’s really hard to find someone as gentle and tolerant of Shuangshuang’s temperament as Dong Wentao. Along with Dong Wentao’s sincere attitude when admitting fault, Chen Qi decided to give him another chance.

Chen Qi planned that if Dong Wentao didn’t take his studies seriously this time, he wouldn’t let Shuangshuang deal with it. He would personally throw Dong Wentao out!

But if Dong Wentao decided to study seriously this time, Chen Qi knew his precious disciple well enough to affirm that Shuangshuang would teach him earnestly. This would give Dong Wentao a chance to enter her inner circle, and that was precisely what Chen Qi hoped for.

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Chen Qi stood dumbfounded at the door until the sight of Shuangshuang, acting childishly to use extreme measures for revenge after losing control in a game, brought him back to reality.

Awkwardly clearing her throat, Shuangshuang put away the talisman paper and wiped away her angry expression, adjusted her slightly rumpled clothes from messing around with Xi Lan, Little Shun, and Mo’er, and asked Chen Qi a bit sheepishly, ”Ahem, Master, did you come to see me for something?”

Chen Qi snapped back to reality, noticing his disciple had returned to her cold demeanor. A bit regretful, he wondered why he hadn’t thought of taking a picture for memory’s sake when her expression had changed!

Nonetheless, he was curious about what had gotten his usually composed disciple so riled up. ”Disciple, what happened just now? Why were you so angry?”

Shuangshuang had nothing to hide from Chen Qi, so she recounted the whole thing. When Chen Qi heard that his disciple was angry because she’d been defeated in a game, he couldn’t hold back a burst of laughter!

Shuangshuang’s lips twitched. Was her Master mocking her or delighting in her misfortune? Was there any teacher-student affection left?

Knowing he was being a bit unkind, Chen Qi quickly stifled his laughter.

Covering his mouth with a hand, he suppressed his laughter and said, ”You never play games, so it’s only natural you’re not good at it. Remember, though, that you have a disciple. Let Wentao handle it for you. After all, Wentao will become a Heavenly Master; he must learn these skills. Don’t be too attached to that college diploma.”

Shuangshuang thought this made sense. Although she was upset at Dong Wentao’s previous lack of concentration in his studies, since he was given a second chance, she should allow him to engage in some Heavenly Master-related tasks. If he slacks again, she can still dismiss him then.

With this in mind, Shuangshuang immediately called Dong Wentao, asking him to take a day off because she had something for him to do.

Dong Wentao had been feeling quite down. Previously, his Master wished he could use every spare minute to study all the Heavenly Master knowledge!

Back then, not to mention weekends, Shuangshuang even used to teach him over the phone after school. But lately, she hadn’t called him at all, leaving Dong Wentao anxious and heavy-hearted.

Finally, when Shuangshuang’s call came, Dong Wentao almost jumped with excitement, practically floating while getting leave from his teacher, and hurriedly taking a taxi, urging the driver to go faster all the way.

Flying home, after hearing Shuangshuang’s explanation and learning his task was to play a game, Zheng Tao confidently assured Shuangshuang, ”Don’t worry, Master. I’m a veteran gamer. In gaming terms, I’m considered a God. I will definitely clear this game!”

Seeing Dong Wentao’s enthusiastic attitude, Shuangshuang nodded without comment, and Dong Wentao then plunged into a life of gaming day and night.

There’s no denying that Dong Wentao wasn’t bragging. He played the game spectacularly, leveling up like he was using cheats; of course, Shuangshuang, a complete game noob, didn’t understand any of it! She didn’t know where Dong Wentao excelled!

Immersed in gaming, Dong Wentao was fully satisfied. He had always dreamed of playing games as he pleased. In those first three days, he was so pumped he even refused to rest when Shuangshuang urged him to take a break.

After three more days, Dong Wentao started to get bored, only playing during the day, no longer gaming through the night. After another three days, staring at the phone screen from morning till night became painful. Playing games all day, every day, without doing anything else—fine for a day or two, but so exhausting over time!

Half a month later, Dong Wentao felt he had become a salted fish, fully capable of lying flat! Now, the sight of a phone screen made him nauseous. From waking up to sleeping, it was all about gaming in reality and dreams. Dong Wentao felt like vomiting from all the gaming!

If it weren’t for the desire to perform well in front of Shuangshuang and not letting her down again, Dong Wentao might have already protested to Shuangshuang, asking if he could get a break from gaming for a day.
