Thanks for reading at BC Novels. ~Reika

 

Reika’s Notes:

  • This chapter is by Fionvarre.
  • It seems that Yue Qingyuan was just putting on his “stern sect master” face but had no real intention of disciplining Shen Qingqiu.
  • OMG, it’s original Luo Binghe from the novel! What do you think the penalty will be?
  •  (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻ The tableflip was in the original. 🙂
  • Please let me know if there are any errors. Thanks for reading.

    I get why the original Luo Binghe is the way he is. The original Shen Qingqiu was god awful to him. And we know the “original plot” as well, and it was sad and terrible. I hope Shen Qingqiu escapes unharmed! x_x

    I don’t know Chinese but in Japanese 布界 means “enchantment” so it could just be the guy acknowledging Binghe’s fast speed as some kind of sorcery or magic.

    The system being a bitch, at this rate, the villain saves himself from the scum system is a much more suited title lol or is he even a villain?!

    The system is sadistic indeed, but looking at it more closely, IT’S STILL FLYING AIRPLANE’S FAULT!!! Arghhhh

    Hello, I’m not sure if you’re still doing edits or not, but the term 布界 (bujie) could literally mean “expand the border” or be a command to surround Shen Qingqiu and Luo Binghe? Thank you for your hard work translating this novel. I hope this is helpful.

    I was wondering ….if he was actually sent back to his real world then would the original SQQ come back and take his place? If so I wonder what his reaction would be, suddenly thrown into a mess he didn’t create, having the person he hates and bullies treat him lovingly and all the songs about him and the person he mistreated was all about papapa😂😂😂

    Hahaha. YQY and LQG protecting SQQ was so nice and funny. They certainly love his Shen.

    The original LBH?! Oh, this punishment is too harsh. I hope he remains untouched.

    Thanks for the chapter!

    Man when I read this I immediately saw an opening to use the old jade pendant to soothe the anger of the original LB. however since the system isn’t up and running I’m wondering if that’s even a possibility. But I mean there’s 10 chapters left and he’s already on good terms with our fluffy LB. unless something goes horribly wrong. Which I will be so sad if it does because I just want a consensual kiss between LB and SQQ. I’m done with the angst. but I’m loving the narrative so far. Thanks for this wonderful translation.

    Hey, original LBH! If you dare harm a hair on my SQQ’s head, I’ll eviscerate you! Go away! No one likes you! Boo! We want our cute LBH back! Shoo! Our LBH will destroy you!

    Thanks for sharing this story with us! I love it too much! >< I'm rereading it even though I should be studying for my exam tomorrow. Oh well!

    Thanks to much for translating!

    Liu and Yu are amazing! Just ‘accidentally’ defending SQQ. XD
    And LBH actually listening to what his Shizun says! I almost couldn’t believe it.

    But I’m gonna be honest I’m probably not going to read the next (few?) Chapters. If the next chapter is going to be what I think it is, I just can’t read it. SQQ went through so much already.
    And I’m so not in the mood to read that kind of stuff.
    I’m going to read the comments to get an idea of what is going on but that’s goingt to be it.

    I can’t handly anymore pain. I just want happiness. SQQ deserves it, damm it!

      I’ve been leaning towards “set the formation” but it just seems weird, you know? Since no formation or array has been mentioned it seems out of place. Maybe just something simpler like “stop him! form a barrier!” isn’t the literal translation but makes more sense.

    2. Kyogre

      Formation can also refer to, like, positioning of people, how they attack as a group, so maybe it’s something like “get in formation?” Zhao Hua is also supposed to be really good with arrays, so they might be able to set them immediately, and that’s why the monks are mentioned as rushing toward LBH.

    Oh my- I’m feeling a lot of angst coming off of the original Binghe… lol Shizun, good luck! Thank you so very much for the update!

    I’m surprised that Yue Qingyuan was defending Shen Qingqiu. He seemed almost hostile in the previous chapter.

    So Shen Qingqiu is still in the new novel, but his dream is somehow connected with the Luo Binghe of the original novel. Or is he just dreaming about the original Luo Binghe?

      I read the extra… and the punishment will be… NOOOOO!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

      Hit anyone, as long as it wasn’t Shen Qingqiu.

      I so love YueLiu!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍 too bad they’re both in love with SQQ 😂😂😂😂😂 even so, i ship them. They remind me, for some reason, of Mu Qing and Feng Xin, which i also ship 😂😂😂😂😂

    Thanks for the chapter! I find it interesting that SQ no longer wants to be sent back to his world. In the beginning of the story, he would have been happy with such a penalty.

      Correct me if I’m wrong, but his original body is dead isn’t it? That means if he gets sent back, he’ll die. Or maybe I’m just getting mixed between my bl system novels…

    The system really is a bitch. Poor SQQ. Why do I feel like this is the human stick coming?

      Lol it wouldn’t really be a punishment tho if it’s something light. But rlly. The system is truly a bitch. Why wasn’t this entitled “villain saves himself from the scum system” instead. It is reallyyyy frustrating….but also undeniably thrilling.

  43. Julie

    LBH was deeply hurt by monk’s words and new he is in pain because his shizun did not go with him. SQQ chose to stay with his martial brothers. That is why LBH became so icy towards SQQ. So sad(｡•́︿•̀｡)

      Lbh was very hurt but I’m sure he doesn’t blame sqq he blames everyone else who are responsible

Both the comedy and the tension come through so well!

    For some reason I had a hunch that SQQ will fail the mission the moment he failed to do something about the escalating chaos. This mission was a plot hole. Things are going out of control again in the story. 😭

    If I am interpreting correctly, I think Bujie is to form a barrier (either physical barrier or one made up of spiritual energy)

    Reply
    1. esotaku

      I tried thinking of all the different chinese characters that could fit ‘布界‘ , and two in particular did:

      布局: bu ju
      The last character is written and pronounced differently, but could have been a typo by the author.
      Means arrangement/layout

      布置: bu zhi
      Again, the last character is different, but the pronounciation of the tone (声调）are both the fourth one (第四声调）
      Means arrange; but more like, get into order

      As you said above, the forming a barrier thing that is mentioned shortly after (SQQ scattering the array of smthing?) makes the two above likely.

      So the translation could probably go like, ‘Get into order!’ or ‘Form the array!’

      idk tho ο(=•ω＜=)ρ⌒☆ ~(￣▽￣)~
