Chapter 45: Encounter at the Inn

  The morning sunlight shines all over the ground, and the scattered light spots among the trees are filled with a peaceful scene. Various small animals shuttle through it, and although winter has arrived, there are still some trees in the forest that have not shed their leaves.

  However, there will always be discord in harmony.

  "Wow, Nan Gong Zang Jie, you pervert!" A figure suddenly rushed out of the woods, disheveled and covered in mud, who was none other than Yang Yu Xi, who had gone out to train.

  He fell to the ground with a thud, got up rubbing his buttocks, spat out the mud that had entered his mouth with a "hiss", and then rushed into the forest with a loud cry.

  A fierce battle cry echoed through the small forest, persisting for a long time.

  After about an hour, the fighting sounds gradually stopped. Yang Yu Xi was the first to rush out of the forest, ignoring the bruises on his body, opening his arms to embrace the sunlight and sighing: "It's so cool!"

  Then he turned his head and said in a bad tone: "Nangong Cangjie! You pervert, come out for me!"

  Nangong Zangjie was also disheveled and dirty, with many bruises on his body, but he looked much cleaner than Yang Yuxi. As he walked, he coldly said: "Go die! You're the pervert."

  "Where did I become perverted?" Yang Yu Xi put her hands on her hips, completely disregarding her image.

  "You sneak into my bed in the middle of the night, what kind of pervert are you!" Nan Gong Cang Jie gritted his teeth, apparently this matter greatly challenged his bottom line.

  "Hmm, do I?" Yang Yu Xi scratched his head, his face thick-skinned to the extreme.

  "Get out of here and die!" Nangong Cangjie raised his hand and a fierce gust of wind shot out, heavily blasting towards Yang Yuxi.

  Yang Yu Xi dodged to the side, rubbing her nose and said with a mischievous tone: "What's wrong with you! I only snuggled into your bed because I was cold, who asked you to give me a sense of security......"

  Nangong Zanjie only felt a chill run down his spine, and with a wave of his right hand, several blasts of wind whistled towards Yang Yuxi. Nangong Zanjie vowed to take care of this pervert!

  "You know that a gentleman uses his mouth and not his fists, don't you?!" Yang Yu Xi shouted loudly while dodging.

  Nangong Zang was too lazy to care about him, more and more fierce winds struck out, this pervert was really hateful.

  And so, the two of them continued on their way, bickering and joking around, until they found themselves approaching a city as dusk began to fall.

  "What city is this?" Yang Yu Xi asked with a tilted head.

  "Take a look yourself." Nan Gong Zuan Jie said with an ill temper.

  "Uh, I'm a bit lazy and don't want to lift my head up, hide and tell me, brother."

  "Get out of here!"

  "Boom!"

  "Ah, Nan Gong Cang, you pervert! I told you not to hit me in the face!"

  Yang Yu Xi covered her face and followed Nan Gong Zang Jie into the city called "Lu Xia".

  The two did not know that after they entered the city, two men in black quickly followed them. They looked to be only a little older than Yang Yuxi and the other two, about four or five years older.

  "What about those two kids?" The black-clad man on the left with a flowing head of long hair said to the short-haired black-clad man on the right, his voice was very soft and gentle.

  "A retard and a cripple, saying exactly the same thing as what Boss said. It's gotta be these two guys, but did Boss misjudge them?" The short-haired man in black clothes spoke with an unexpectedly rough tone.

  "The mind of Lao Da is not something we can guess at, let's just focus on doing things and speaking less." The long-haired man said with a slight frown.

  "Also, when do we make our move?" the short-haired man said.

  The long-haired man smoothed out his disheveled hair and gazed at the darkening horizon, saying: "Let's wait a bit longer, it's still too early now."

  Night falls, from afar.

  "Ah, I'm so tired!" Yang Yu Xi let out a "plop" as she fell onto the bed in the inn, stretching her body to its limits.

  Nangong Zhenjue sat in a chair beside the table, frowning and saying: "We can't stay at an inn."

  "Why?! I haven't slept in a bed for a whole month!" Yang Yu Xi loudly protested, then foolishly stroked the quilt on the bed, revealing a satisfied expression. "Ah, my beloved bed sister, brother misses you so much that his heart is broken."

  "Can't you be less stupid?" Nangong Cangjue rolled his eyes and said, "The inn is very expensive, we don't have extra silver coins, what will we do when the silver coins run out?"

  "Whatever... " Yang Yu Xi sat up from the bed, just when Nan Gong Zhai thought he had finally become serious, he lay back down on the bed again and said, "Who cares, I'll sleep first. Bed sister..."

  What replied to him was Nangong Cangjie's fist in extreme anger.

  After a while, the two finished dinner. Yang Yuxi lay back on the bed, and Nangong Zuan moved a stool to sit by the window, looking up at the bright moon in the sky.

  Against his expectations, the first person he thought of was Lan Yu Yan, which made his eyebrows slightly furrow.

  "What's wrong, thinking of Xiaoyan again?" What made him even more unhappy was that the idiot on the bed actually hit his thoughts with one sentence.

  "Get lost!" Unconsciously, these two words became the most frequently used phrase by Nan Gong Zang Jie when speaking to Yang Yu Xi.

  "Alright, think whatever you want, there's nothing that can't be admitted." Yang Yu Xi's voice was lazy and drawling.

  "What were you thinking?"

  "I don't know..." Yang Yu Xi stared at the ceiling, dazed and distracted. "Maybe he's also thinking of Xiao Yan Er, but Xiao Yan Er likes you, so I don't have anything to think about."

  Nangong Zuan thought for a long time and said, "I'm sorry."

  Yang Yu Xi suddenly sat up from bed, her face full of disbelief: "You, what did you say?"

  Nangong Zang hesitated for a moment, but in the end he said it again: "Sorry."

  This time it was Yang Yu Xi's turn to fall into silence, and after a long while his expression became somewhat despondent. He waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you're better than me, it's normal for Xiao Yan Er to like you. And my dad said that we're still young now, so none of these things count. Maybe I just have a habit of liking Xiao Yan Er rather than actually liking her."

  "Habit? What do you know about habit?" Nan Gong Cang Jie was somewhat surprised.

  Yang Yu Xi shook her head: "I don't know either, but I think it's about the same. Isn't habit just a feeling that comes naturally when you've done something many times and then want to continue doing it?"

  "I don't know." Nangong Cangjie also shook his head.

  "Whatever, whatever, what's the point of all this? My goal for coming out this time is to get stronger!" Yang Yu Xi's brain made a quick turn and he immediately became spirited again.

  Nan Gong Zang Jie didn't respond, but instead quietly gazed at Yang Yu Xi, his left sleeve fluttering in the evening breeze.

  The night is already in its third watch, the moon has pulled a wisp of cloud into a quilt and fallen fast asleep.

  At this time, two human figures were as light as swallows, shuttling on the residential buildings of Luoxia City at an extremely fast speed, dazzling people's eyes.

  At this time, Yang Yu Xi and Nan Gong Zang Jie had both fallen asleep. Although they were unwilling, the two still squeezed onto one bed, with Yang Yu Xi's feet rudely resting on top of Nan Gong Zang Jie's body.

  "Ugh..."

  The window was opened gently and two figures slipped in quickly and landed on the ground without making a sound.

  Two dark silhouettes exchanged a gesture with each other and approached the large bed from both sides, faint spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from their bodies.

  "Get moving!"

  The two of them looked at each other and pointed their index fingers at Yang Yu Xi and the other person.

  "Whoosh!"

  Yang Yu Xi and another person suddenly jumped up, the two of them tacitly attacked one person each, their footwork swift and fierce.

  Two people dodged and were kicked right in the middle, retreated several steps, with eyes full of shock.

  "You..." The man in black exclaimed.

  "Hehe, Cang Jie, thanks!" Yang Yu Xi rubbed her nose and nudged Nan Gong Cang Jie beside her.

  Nangong Zangjie didn't relax in the slightest and said, "Don't be careless, these two are both at the combined truth realm."

  "What?! " Yang Yu Xi's face changed greatly, saying, "What's the point of fighting then? Hurry up and leave!"

  "Hmph, thinking of running? Possible?!" The two men in black were precisely the same two who had appeared at the city gate earlier.

  The long-haired black-robed man drew with both hands, and strands of spiritual energy emerged, sealing the small house tightly.

  A man with short hair and black clothes stepped forward, sneering: "Although your reaction was beyond our expectations, the outcome will not change."

  "What do you want?" asked Nan Gong Cang Jie coldly.

  "Don't worry, we won't do anything to you, just want to take you somewhere." The long-haired man's voice was originally soft and gentle, but now it sounded eerie.

  "Where to go?" Nan Gong Cang Jie's perception was fully released, and his face looked even more unsightly. This room had been completely sealed, and it would be difficult for him and Yang Yu Xi to break through with their current strength.

  "Heh heh, you'll know when you get there!" the long-haired man said with a sinister tone.

  "You're making us go, aren't you? Doesn't brother look very embarrassed?!" Yang Yu Xi shouted loudly.

  "Little brat, you've got a sharp tongue, but I don't know if you'll be able to speak soon!" The short-haired man seemed to have lost his patience and said irritably, "I'm asking for the last time, are you coming with us or not?"

  "Of course... no way!" Yang Yu Xi stuck out his tongue at the short-haired man, then threw a punch, taking the initiative.

  Nangong Zangjie saw Yang Yuxi take action and didn't hesitate, the blue water knife appeared in his right hand, the blade shone brightly, like moonlight sprinkling down.

  "Hmph" The two men snorted, each facing the other, and their True Realm strength burst out. It seemed they had made up their minds to capture Yang Yuxi and the other person, so they didn't show any mercy at all.

  Just one encounter, Yang Yuxi and the other fell into a disadvantage. Although the two had made some progress in their strength over the past month, they were still far from reaching the realm of unity, so it was naturally difficult to deal with them.

  But what's even more astonishing is that the two black-clothed men, who were at the Congenital Realm level, were actually blocked by two Spirit Awakening Upper Stage children. Although victory was only a matter of time, it still wounded their pride.

  "Mad lion, settle it quickly, don't drag things out unnecessarily." The long-haired man shouted at the short-haired man.

  The short-haired man's face turned stern and he said, "I understand, Wild Eagle."

  "Mad Lion, Wild Eagle? What kind of name is this?" Yang Yu Xi wondered.

  "It should be a code!" replied Nan Gong Cang Jie, he knew that the two of them had already reached a dead end and would not be able to escape being caught today.

  As expected, the aura of Kuang Shi Ye Ying surged in an instant, his true yuan churned, his hair fluttered, and the two men's strength was terrifying to such an extent!

  "What's the point of even fighting?" Yang Yu Xi said gloomily.
