Chapter 1181: Both Sides were Running!
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
Ye Xiao and Han Bingxue had been talking disorderly and confusingly. Ye Xiao had been warning Han Bingxue about the dangerous situation. He was afraid the man who followed them would start a killing strike. Han Bingxue couldn't realize who was chasing after them, but that was the reason why he felt utterly terrified. Men always feared the unknown. He knew that they were in danger, but didn't know what danger it was. That was the most horrible feeling in his heart. As time passed, the fear was growing!
Han Bingxue thought, [Oh I am a terrified baby…]
He was honestly terrified, astonished, frightened, numb in the head, but he had to pretend calm and steady…
"Really? I don't think such a short distance could exhaust you!" Han Bingxue stood still, appearing calm and imposing. What a brilliant actor!
"I am exhausted in the heart! Ok?!" Ye Xiao took out the water bag and started to drink. "Back there, you talked to me through mind connection, telling me that it was improper for you to show up and tell them about the danger. You asked me to do it, to ease your mind. Now we are away from the danger. What do you think… if we go back there? Maybe the battle is over… If the fight is ended, this should be the time when the Heaven's Terrace has the least number of people. If the fruits come down again… isn't it our best chance to get the fruits?"
When Ye Xiao said the words, his eyes were twinkling with hope.
He wasn't acting though. He just thought that it might be an excellent way to get rid of that man's chase!
"What? Go back?" Han Bingxue was shocked.
He was confused. [Well, unlike the others, I know exactly where the fruits are right now! They are in your own pockets, aren't they? Why do you want to go back? Are you acting? What a wonderful actor! I don't see anything fake at all! Don't tell me you are actually an excellent actor!]
Ye Xiao stood up and excitedly said, "Let's go! Let's go back to Heaven's Terrace! This is our opportunity! We should seize it!"
Han Bingxue made a long sigh and said, "Come on. Cut it off. I would rather choose to be beaten up to death than go back there."
"Well, just wait here then. I am going back." Ye Xiao decisively said, "I believe this is a great opportunity for us. If I miss this, there will be no chance for me to get the fruits anymore!"
Han Bingxue kept making sighs. After a while, he said, "You just can't stop coming up with random ideas, can you…" Then he followed up and lowered his head, said to Ye Xiao, "I must owe you a lot in my previous life! There must be something wrong in my head…"
Ye Xiao laughed and said, "Brother Han, you don't owe me anything. My master asked you to look after me. That is all I know. What is the story between you and my master by the way? Do you owe my master? Can you tell me?"
Han Bingxue nearly got the eyes pop out the eye frames.
Ye Xiao kept starting random topics. It was too abrupt. If Han Bingxue didn't have privity with him, they would have been exposed.
Not only Ye Xiao, but also Han Bingxue was brilliant in acting! They were literally two wonderful actors!
However, Han Bingxue did so well in acting at the moment because he hadn't detected the enemy all the way along. It scared him a lot. He felt that the man in the dark must be one of the most horrible enemies in his life.
It was impossible that Xuan Bing would do this to them. Zong Yuankai should be dead. Only one man was possible!
Wu Fa!
Thinking of the name of this man, Han Bingxue couldn't stop trembling.
The only question he had in his head was why Wu Fa would chase them.
[Does he think that we have the fruits?]
[But… Why hasn't he attacked yet? What Ye Xiao said made him give up attacking us?]
[That's impossible.]
[Why?]
After grumbling for a while, he couldn't ease his mind, so he said, "You want to go back, Fine. But just stay safe. It is very likely there are still a lot of superior cultivators over there. The place could be still crowded… Just keep your safe in safety. If you dare to do anything reckless, I will knock you out and leave."
"Absolutely! I surely care about my own life!" Ye Xiao nodded.
Now he was relieved. It seemed Han Bingxue understood what he wanted.
The man in the dark frowned and watched the two of them going back cautiously. He was confused all of a sudden.
He was pretty sure that he had the best hiding skills, that nobody in Qing-Yun Realm could notice his existence when he was chasing after others. Besides, he was quite far away from Ye Xiao and Han Bingxue.
[The question is… If they didn't notice me, why would they turn over?]
[What is going on?]
[Well, they are right about something though… What they said about Zong Yuankai… Is it possible that the old man didn't truly die?]
[The fruits… The Heaven's Terrace is empty at the moment… If they go back to that place, is it possible that they could take the fruits?]
On the way back to Heaven's Terrace, Ye Xiao kept thinking how to get rid of the stalker.
Precisely he was thinking about how to make that man leave automatically!
It was impossible to get rid of him. Any forcible action would lead to severe consequence!
However, he had done some actings trying to make that man leave, but it just didn't work.
The man was following them all the way back, in a certain distance, no rush, no impatience. It felt like he was ready to chase after them for the rest of his life.
Luckily, he didn't make any attacks either.
It was a frozen situation. Ye Xiao had to do whatever he felt should be done and see how long the man could spend on this. [There must be a lot of people back in Heaven's Terrace when we return. There is a large amount of them. I will make chaos in the crowd, and that may give me a chance to get away. It is better than this anyway. This is hopeless, and that gives me opportunity…]
[We don't have the fruits on us after all… Even though the fruits are in the Boundless Space, nobody can get access to it. Even Master Bai, Wan and Xiu, Meng Huaiqing are unable to check my Space, let alone cultivators in Qing-Yun Realm!]
…
On the other side.
In a range of mountains. Two shadows were fleeing fast like a wild wind. They both had blood stains on their clothes. They must have been injured severely.
The two figures were both slim and beautiful, wearing white clothes. However, the white garments had been stained with blood. Maybe the blood was from their enemies, or perhaps it was theirs.
"Hang on, we are almost there… We will be safe soon…" The figure who was in the front kept holding the other.
