Chapter 303: Uniting

After walking out, the girl never returned to the inside of the cave. Even Jian Chen who had changed into a new pair of clothes had turned red in the face. He had felt embarassed to a major degree and even a little angry. He didn’t think that the girl wouldn’t have any manners and would walk in without making her presence known.

If it weren’t for her quick reaction, Jian Chen would had assumed that she didn’t have a grudge at all for him seeing her naked body and today would be the day that she would return the favor.

If Jian Chen’s thoughts were to be discovered by this girl, then drowning himself in a river wouldn’t be enough for the girl.

After putting on some clothes, Jian Chen walked out of the cave where the girl stood not too far away with her back facing him. Even though he couldn’t see her face, Jian Chen could see the two sides of her neck were bright red, meaning her cheeks must have been as well.

After being discovered completely naked by a girl as he showered, it was completely hard for Jian Chen to not feel embarrassed. He still managed to hold a serious look on his face as he spoke out, “Hey, how could you be so rude and walk in without a sound to look at me while I shower?” A few years back after accidentally seeing the girl’s body, he had suffered greatly from it. Now that the girl had silently and sneakily walked into the cave as he bathed, this was an opportunity that Jian Chen would not dare to miss.

The girl had initially been embarrassed, but the moment she heard Jian Chen say that she snuck in to look at him shower, her red face immediately grew murderous. No longer feeling ashamed, she turned around to look at him, “Pah, who says I was trying to look at you shower? Do you even have any eyes?”

Jian Chen was speechless. To avoid having water in his eyes, he had shut them, so he didn’t see the girl’s figure. However, he had heard her shriek. With an honest expression, he spoke evenly, “My two eyes can see perfectly fine.”

“Pah, what a scoundrel you are, do you even feel any shame? Let me ask you this, that cave was originally mine, I was kind in allowing you to stay there for now, but then you began to take a shower without even telling me. This was your fault in the first place, so don’t go blaming me!” The girl fired back in order to retain her pride. Before Jian Chen could say anything to use against her, she would have to try to win the argument first.

“This cave had been made by someone else, just when did it become yours?” Jian Chen asked bewildered.

“This is a cave with no owner, but since I was the first to enter, then naturally I would be the owner of the cave!” The girl said confidently. Arguing was a specialty that she was good at.

Jian Chen wasn’t convinced by her words and was left speechless. He knew that if he argued with her, he would lose for sure. There weren’t too many people that he’d met that he couldn’t kill and equally less people that were stronger than him. However a fight of words was a different story. The points Jian Chen made were eaten up by her; logic was not something that agreed with her. Her logic was both preposterous and stubborn: the girl could say that one was two and that two was three, and would be very confident in herself. Logic was not something that agreed with her, and the words that Jian Chen had tried to use to win had been eaten up by her.

“You…you win.” Jian Chen spoke with a huff. He hadn’t planned on letting her win, but who could have imagined that not even two sentences later, she had fully suppressed him with her words and given him no chance to win.

“I’ve seen your body and you’ve seen mine. But I’ve also saved your life, so let’s consider this even. If I owe you in the future, tell me.” With that, Jian Chen began to walk away without a look back.

“Yo-you rogue!” Upon hearing Jian Chen say that he had seen her body, the girl immediately grew flustered as her mind couldn’t help but think back to that one time. Her beautiful face instantly lit up with a reddish hue. Immediately, her good mood after beating Jian Chen shriveled away as she grew both embarrassed and angry.

“Who told you to save me anyways? I didn’t ask you. If it weren’t for me impeding the Seal of Treasure Mountain, then you would have long since been smashed to pieces by it.” The girl said angrily as she tried to find a way to fire back at him.

Hearing that, Jian Chen immediately stopped moving. The situation was like she said; if it weren’t for her using her Solunar Bow to control the seal, the he wouldn’t have been able to escape from the seal. He didn’t want to say that to her, so he continued to walk away.

At this moment, the girl had finally realized that Jian Chen’s wounds were completely healed and he was back to normal.

Stunned, the girl couldn’t understand just how Jian Chen had been able to recover thoroughly from his injuries in such a short period of time.

“Hey, scoundrel, how did you heal from your injuries so fast” The girl asked from behind with a hint of anger. Her bright eyes burned with curiosity as she stared at him.

“I had some good medicine on hand.” Jian Chen didn’t want to answer, but avoiding the question would have made the girl even more insistent on figuring out his secret. For the sake of dispelling her questions and doubts, he would have to carefully think of a reason.

With this, Jian Chen had already moved farther and farther away and nearly made it out of the girl’s sight.
