The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 915 - 502: Gift
She also knew she had been a bit rude to the woman in the tree, but she was spoiled with fine clothes and food since childhood and had no habit of apologizing. After biting her lips for a long ti, she still couldn’t manage to say "thank you" or "sorry", so she could only nudge Huangfuming next to her. The latter glared at her and said: "What are you doing?"
"The Bashe Forest is full of dangers, not like our own backyard where you can leisurely date. You two should head back and rest early." After saying this, Ning Xiaoxian jumped down from the tree, turned around, and prepared to leave.
"Wait a mont." This ti, it was Huangfuming who spoke up. Jin Manyan tugged on the hem of his clothes and whispered: "Brother Huangfu, what are you doing? This woman is so strange, just ignore her and let’s hurry back."
He glared at her and said displeased: "She just saved your life, and you’re calling her strange? The family manners of the Jin Family are really poor." His voice was deeper and more powerful than a girl’s, and when he spoke, his voice carried far. Not only Ning Xiaoxian could hear it, but even the birds three to four ters away in the trees could as well.
Jin Manyan was startled, feeling both shad and angered: "You... what are you doing?"
Huangfuming’s eyes suddenly shifted, and he said: "You head back first, I still don’t want to return yet."
Jin Manyan really didn’t want to stay in such a remote and dangerous place, but going back alone made her a little scared. More importantly, she didn’t want Huangfuming to face this strange woman by himself.
After he finished speaking to her, he turned back and found that Ning Xiaoxian had already disappeared. He beca anxious imdiately, looked around, and unexpectedly saw the last hint of light yellow before it vanished into the darkness where the Cannibal Flower was.
This woman actually walked past the Cannibal Flower!
He gritted his teeth and suddenly chased after her with big strides.
Jin Manyan had been holding on to his clothes, but she stumbled a couple of steps. Seeing him heading towards the direction of the Cannibal Flower, she was terrified, and her face turned pale. She was not as strong as him, so when her tugging didn’t work, and fearing that Cannibal Flower, she had to let go and watched him disappear into the darkness as well.
"Brother Huangfu!" She called out a couple of tis, only to hear Huangfuming’s voice far away in the darkness: "You go back first."
When Huangfuming rushed into that patch of darkness, he gripped the longsword in his hand tightly, ready to stab out should the Cannibal Flower show its ferocious face. The woman was walking too fast, if he wasn’t quick, he might not be able to catch up.
But it was quiet and still in the darkness, and no Cannibal Flower appeared. When he passed over that area, he only felt a small hole beneath his feet, nothing else appeared unusual, as if such a vicious plant had never lived there.
"Ning... Garden Director!" Ahead was also darkness, he strained his eyesight, peering forward, but couldn’t see her figure. Huangfuming beca anxious and used his movent technique to chase forward, but there was only the sound of wind moaning and spring insects whispering in the woods, not a trace of any other shadow.
He sprinted for tens of breaths but still couldn’t catch up, finally stopping, out of breath and dejected. It’s said that there were many demons in the Hidden Stream, so very ferocious. If he recklessly continued, he might be caught and eaten as a snack.
Such bad luck, couldn’t he find soone else in the Hidden Stream to help with this?
He muttered to himself a couple of tis, and when he turned around, he suddenly saw Ning Xiaoxian standing right behind him, watching him thoughtfully.
Though he prided himself on his courage, at that instant, even he was scared senseless. Was this woman so kind of specter?! She ca and went without a sound.
The result was her speaking first: "How did you know to call ’Garden Director’?" Hearing these words from this kid, she felt a bit like a kindergarten director.
"The Guide who brought us into the Hidden Stream said it this afternoon." The Guide said only that sentence and nothing more, his mouth shut tight like a clam shell. At that ti, Master had let out a long "oh," making it hard for him to ask further. When he asked Master what kind of an official a "Garden Director" was, Master just glared and said, "Why should a child care so much?"
Pfft, calling him a child just to stop him from asking more questions? What kind of child has to accompany his fiancée for a casual stroll?
He steadied himself, and with an air of pretending to be old and wise, said: "To be a Garden Director, you must be really old."
Hearing the stifled laughter of Changtian and Qiongqi in the God Demon Prison, Ning Xiaoxian’s face imdiately turned dark. Really old? Granny isn’t even twenty yet this year! Although in this world, most twenty-year-old won are already married with kids, still... she looked really young, okay? This little ghost, does he even know how to talk properly!
