Chapter 416 - 416 | One Of Them Wakes Up
Wang Yao was still in shock after the sudden beating from Ye Tian Yun.
And when he saw Ye Tian Yun suddenly return to the consciousness space, he immediately went on guard.
However, to his confusion, Ye Tian Yun didn't say anything; instead was just staring at him.
More precisely, Ye Tian Yun was staring at the top of his head.
"What happened?" In the end, Wang Yao couldn't help but ask, "Do I have horns on my head?"
Ye Tian Yun didn't reply and, with a slight nod, went back outside.
"What the hell? Don't scare me like that, dude!" Wang Yao couldn't help but shout.
Appearing out of nowhere and then leaving without saying anything but only staring at him.
'Did he lose his mind after going through the memories? Oh no. Anyways, I need to do something or else I will be scared to death if Ye Tian Yun keeps on appearing like this.'
…
Unaware of Wang Yao's thoughts, Ye Tian Yun was currently lost in his thoughts.
He had seen the notification on Wang Yao's forehead, and he was a bit surprised by it.
[Wang Yao: 0 Star Favourability. No emotions against you. Be it hatred or closeness.]
'That was… too specific.'
Ye Tian Yun was surprised by this.
'But does he really not have any hatred? It's hard to believe….'
Ye Tian Yun had stabbed his sword in Wang Yao's throat. Even though the wisp of Wang Yao's soul was only there because of the Emblem Of Time, it was still hard to believe for Ye Tian Yun that it didn't have any hatred or negative against him.
'Still… I need to be careful.'
Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh.
He couldn't let his guard down, even though all the signs were pointing at Wang Yao being an innocent soul here.
'Sigh…'
"Ugh…"
Just then, someone's groaning noise enters Ye Tian Yun's ears.
He opens his eyes and is surprised by the scene in front of him.
"You woke up earlier than expected." He said.
In front of him was Jun Xie.
The first thing that Ye Tian Yun noticed was… another system prompt.
This one was above Jun Xie's head.
Ye Tian Yun immediately began to read it.
[Jun Xie. 4 Stars Favourability. Considers you a friend. Might not betray you.]
'4 stars…'
Jun Xie's favorability was way higher than Yuan Shuchun's.
'Is it because we fought together?'
That was most probably the reason. After all, only death-like situations can make people friends this fast.
'I wonder if this will change if I change my disguise? After all, he doesn't know my true identity.'
Even though Ye Tian Yun was curious, he could only wait and see if there were any changes in the prompt.
…
Jun Xie laid on the floor and was trying to assess the situation.
Hearing Ye Tian Yun's words, his initially panicked heart calmed down a bit.
He was safe.
Just then, he felt something on his shoulders.
More specifically, it was someone.
Jun Xie turned his head and was shocked to see an unfamiliar girl lying on his shoulder.
'She's beautiful… no! Who is she!?'
He opened his eyes wide and looked at Ye Tian Yun for an answer.
Ye Tian Yun simply smiled, "A… maid for you."
His words confused Jun Xie and Yuan Shuchun both.
'Isn't she, his Sister-in-law? How come he's giving her to Jun Xie as a maid?'
Yuan Shuchun couldn't comprehend what was going on in Ye Tian Yun's mind.
'He really is a weirdo…'
On the other hand, Jun Xie was confused why he was suddenly given a beautiful maid?
'Well, whatever, I will just send her away once we reach Gracious Sword Sect.'
With this thought, Jun Xie first removed Wu Qingwu's hand from his chest and then carefully placed her head on the surface, slowly moving his hand.
'Damn, she's heavy.'
Jun Xie let out a sigh after sitting up.
Glancing back at the girl, he couldn't help but frown.
'Isn't she…'
Jun Xie's eyes widened up in surprise.
'Isn't she the maid of Wu Qingwu?'
He remembered her sitting at the front with the driver in Third Princess Wu Qingwu's entourage.
'The guard kicked her out to save her life…'
Jun Xie was really surprised to see her here.
He glanced at Ye Tian Yun and saw him looking at him with a mysterious smile, while Yuan Shuchun looked at him in disdain.
Her thoughts could be seen through her expression, 'How could you accept a random girl as a maid? You're also weird. Why am I surrounded by all the weirdos?'
Suddenly, Jun Xie remembered how one of the guards had almost killed him.
"What happened?" Jun Xie asked, still lying on the surface and staring at the ceiling of the carriage.
"We… survived."
It was Yuan Shuchun who replied this time.
Jun Xie gave a slight nod.
Three Core Formation Realm Cultivators.
It was already a miracle that they were able to escape.
"How did we survive?" He couldn't help but ask Yuan Shuchun.
Yuan Shuchun glanced at Kai Yang, indicating her answer.
Jun Xie was surprised by her action, and turning his head at Ye Tian Yun, he asked, "Did you kill those Core Formation Realm cultivators!?"
Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "Many things happened; you lost consciousness too early. Just read the report later; you will know all the details."
Then Ye Tian Yun closed his eyes and started to meditate.
He was in disguise; no need to be 'brotherly' with Jun Xie.
Jun Xie, on the other hand, wasn't bothered by his attitude. To him, Kai Yang had always been the silent one. The fact that Kai Yang was having a conversation here was already enough.
Then Jun Xie took a deep breath and sat cross-legged.
He began to assess his injuries and check his physical condition.
The outcome was quite surprising for him.
'I am at my hundred percent….'
'How did this happen? I was seriously injured… Did they give me some pills or what? But I haven't heard of such miraculous pills or elixirs….'
Even though Jun Xie wanted to know, he didn't ask.
Mainly because another thought overwhelmed him.
'I… failed to escape.'
