Chapter 241 (2/2)
Xiao En looked at the young man's silhouette framed by the mouth of the cave ”You're in the same line of business as me,” he said ”That's why you knohat I would have done at that tiet close to the temple’s walls, so hoere you supposed to enter via a sewer?” Upon saying this, Fan Xian’s eyebrows ht confusion Then, he asked, ”In a place such as this, a relic left from the Gods, how could there be a sewer?”
”So I failed” Xiao En said these words in haste ”Now that I think about it, I e inI could get inside through such a mundane point of entry”
”And then?”
”And then…” Xiao En fell into a weird mood ”Then I returned to the front of the te in his arms In my curiosity, I approached to ask him what he held and then…”
The old man’s speech starew tenser and tenser
”The door of the te it, inched closer towards Xiao En in a est he wanted to protect hilea to break, he said, ”The temple’s doors opened quietly and quite naturally It was an exciting thing to witness On my way there to take a look inside, from beyond that massive door, a beautiful person stepped outside”
”A beautiful person?”
”Yes, it was a fairy”
Xiao En stood before the door like a fool as a little girl ran directly into his arued body allanced at Ku He, who looked like a fierce tiger He dashed towards the tean to est Rank Nine elite, but he had no idea what cath that he possessed to take on this entity that had eed from the temple The whole scene quickly descended into chaos
A few moments later, it dawned upon Xiao En that he did indeed hold within his arirl began yelling at Ku He, ”Retreat!”
It was a siirl, but it was spoken like a decree issued by an emperor The poithin her voice made Xiao En shi+ver And then, all of a sudden, his face was srace, but Xiao En, clutching the young girl, clumsily fell backwards and rolled down the teive chase and rather warped back inside the teaze back towards the teht that for a brief moment, the dark entity resembled the shape of a hing up blood after his brief clash Even Ku He was no match for that dark entity It was evident that whatever was inside that temple was not from this world
Xiao En understood quite quickly that while he was off looking for his supposed sewer entrance, Ku He irl that was in his arain that would free her froirl?
”Carry irl appeared to be extrenaling hiirl tight, grabbed a hold of Ku He and began his descent back down the , but at long last, they returned to their ca down in his tent, he suddenly questioned why he took flight The Emperor had ordered him to retrieve the secrets of immortality, but he had coirl, without a second thought? The strangest aspect, or so he thought, was that the dark entity did not go after hiirl, as she sat upon the floor, rubbing her nose She took notice at the mound of human bones that had been left over in the corner of the tent
”These poor and hateful huaze to Xiao En It was only now that Xiao En was able to get a good look at her and see what she truly looked like Her skin was pale like snoithout a single blemish Her eyes ide and they sparkled Her beauty was so no mortal could possess
In the pitch black cave, Xiao En could not make out Fan Xian’s facial expression, but he could tell through the tone of his voice, that soirl?”
”Four years of age, at the most” Xiao En’s eyes ide open, as if he could see her face before hiht as a feather”
Fan Xian, in a tone of astonishment, asked, ”She was four years old as well?”
”Why 'as well'”?
”It’s nothing” Fan Xian laughed, opened his eyes and asked, ”Do you knoho that little girl is?”
Xiao En replied assuredly, ”Of course I know She was fairy anted to become mortal, and thus she escaped that teer in disagreeirl that entered the temple to steal stuff”
