1016 Words
With a piercingly suspicious gaze, Zi Yingjun made a stop and faced Jin Xuan Meng. She maintained a distance in vigilance. Since yesterday, Jin Xuan Meng knew he will avenge himself after she kept pinching him. Zi Yingjun raised a brow because of her sudden wariness. Did he do something wrong? Well, he did made a lot of mischief, specially to her who has been the person he had lots of interaction with. His naturally curled lips revealed an evil smile which is strangely charming. However, Jin Xuan Meng carefully placed her hand behind her back and ready to activate her space ring to take out a weapon incase he also take advantage of their situation to get rid of her.
"Jin, Xuan, Meng." he called her name with slight pauses as if finding it wonderful. Jin Xuan Meng squinted her eyes. What does he want to do?
"Remember my first threat?" Jin Xuan Meng hid her fear and anticipation. She lifted her head in an arrogant manner. "I will break that fifth limbs of yours if you do something that'll cause me harm."
"Hah!" Zi Yingjun lightly laughed. He pinched his chin with his eyes gleaming in full interest. "Why are you so distant? It hurts my heart, ah. Come here."
Jin Xuan Meng almost coughed up blood. Is he dead serious treating her like a child?! What's more, it was strange she felt like he was coaxing her, as if his daughter or angry wife. She gritted her teeth but remained calm. He's in a higher rank than her, she can't provoke him yet.
"You shrew. We're not even friends, humph." Jin Xuan Meng glared. She leapt forward to continue their journey.
"No wonder you're still single." Zi Yingjun made fun of her. He had a thought of no longer seeing her as a one-time pawn. With her aptitude, intelligence, ruthless temperament and beauty, she had unintentionally convinced him that he will exempt her from his enemy list. If he can make her trust him, she can become a high-class weapon. Ai, Zi Yingjun suddenly missed those girls he raised. With this thought, he had a vicious plan to raise Jin Xuan Meng too and use her to eradicate anyone he sees as thorns.
"Zi Yingjun, you know, I want to kick your face and tear that smirk off of you." Jin Xuan Meng casted a cold glance. She knew that every time he grins, that means he is up to something no good at all.
"If ever you can, feel free." he made a stop when they soon reached the Heis' camp. The ground is shaking and Hei Wen Zhu is still unconscious while Hei Si Yin stood there motionlessly. Zi Yingjun smiled at her and waved his hand.
"You cut sleeves." Hei Si Yin's eyes were red in anger upon seeing them.
"Heh. Are you obsessed with men who likes men?" Jin Xuan Meng went down the tree branch and looked down at Hei Wen Zhu. She tapped his cheek but he didn't respond. Zi Yingjun arrived next to her and searched Hei Wen Zhu's space ring. He immediately earned a look of scorn from the two. What a rude guy he is, robbing other people's stuff in front of an audience.
"Tsk. Useless." Zi Yingjun tossed the ring then turned to Hei Si Yin. Seeing his eyes curving to crescent, Jin Xuan Meng can guess Zi Yingjun is going to inspect her next.
"Don't you dare- ah! Zi Yingjun!" she was embarrassed and angry at the same time when he straightforwardly loosened her outer robe to search for a qiankun bag. "Bastard! I will tell everyone you two are coercing and are in a relationship!"
Pa!
The two girls were stunned when they heard that loud sound. In the instant, Hei Si Yin's black coal face turned extremely red. She badly wanted to tear Zi Yingjun to pieces.
"What?" he gripped her waist to keep her from struggling while his other hand is ready for another slap. The arrogant girl in front of him broke into tears from such humiliation.
"What? What what?! Y-you! I will kill you!" he dared to slap her butt! Hei Xue won't even do that even though they had dual cultivated. This demon spawn is truly unrestrained!
"If you can survive." Zi Yingjun took her hand and removed the space ring she is keeping. However, his consciousness was blocked. He noticed a rune written behind the ring which prevented him from checking the space ring's content. The rumbling intensified which reminded him they have to act fast. "Remove the rune formation."
"Why should I?" Hei Si Yin pulled out a mocking gaze.
"There's a horde of spirit beast rushing here. If you want to he saved, just follow his words." Jin Xuan Meng impatiently said and hurled Hei Wen Zhu over her shoulder. She brought him to a tree branch while waiting for the two.
"F-fine. But remember this, I will expose you two!" she still thought of threatening them.
"Oh? Then we don't need to save you anymore." Zi Yingjun turned his back with the space ring in his grasp. Hei Si Yin hesitated when she heard a growl behind her.
"Help! I'll do anything, just save me!" Hei Si Yin quickly changed her mind after confirming that what Jin Xuan Meng said was true.
Zi Yingjun turned around and lifted his hand. Immediately, Hei Si Yin was placed in front of him. He picked her up like a sack and swiftly dodged the black panther that pounced on them. Though humans can now cultivate, they are still a livestock if they can't subdue spirit beasts or demon beasts. Zi Yingjun gave a gesture to Jin Xuan Meng and both of them fled to the forest. They stopped on a certain place atop a branch.
"I don't need anything other than the soul cores and merits you got. I'll have eighty, she'll get twenty." Zi Yingjun placed the space ring in her hand. Hei Si Yin looked at him solemnly and opened the space ring.
