Chapter 390 - Training buddies (1/2)

Still engrossed in his discussion with Baracus, Hao Xuan unknowingly entered an old wooden house. It was the only structure here so without much thought Hao Xuan went in. By the time he woke from this stupor, he was already standing in front of a wooden door.

*Knock*Knock*

”Hello? Ryfon is here and wants to see you,” he said awkwardly.

Hao Xuan forgot to ask for the person's name so he didn't know what to call him. Under normal circumstances, he would just yell the person's name but now all he could do was shout that Ryfon wanted to see whoever was inside.

”Hello??” he shouted again but as before there was no response. He waited a minute or two but when he didn't hear any sound from the outside he slowly opened the door, making sure to make as much noise as possible.

”Hello?? Ryfon's....cousin..? He wants to see you, man!”

The interior of the house was actually completely different from what he expected. The outside looked worn out, much like an abandoned building but the insides were neat and tidy.

The floor didn't have any dust at all, there was a nice scent of lavender in the air. There were a bunch of things scattered on a desk in the middle of the living room area like combs, somethings that looked like lotion bottles etc.

”HELLO??” he yelled again.

*Splash*

As if in response to his earlier call out, the sound of water splashing came from directly ahead.

”Ryfon sent me, he wants to see....dude...” Hao Xuan said as loudly as he could while walking towards the door. He knocked on it like before but there was no response. Finally having had enough he forced open the door and was met with a wall of fog.

”Yo, anyone in here?”

*Splash*

'Why the f*ck isn't he saying anything...' with a frown and a light temper he pushed aside the fog and saw a shadow sitting in a pool of water. It seemed like the source of the fog was a naturally formed in-door hot spring.

”Dude I've been calling for you for like 10 minutes now, can you at least reply?” he said while walking towards the shadow with heavy steps. When he was about 10 feet away from it, the fog cleared up enough that he could see who it really belonged it.

Hao Xuan froze mid-stride. The first thing he saw was a slender back with extremely smooth skin. Long blond hair tied up in a bun. There was a faint sound of music coming from the person's ears, obviously listening to music VERY loudly which was why they couldn't hear him.

'It's a girl?! Why is there a girl here? Wait, I forgot who's cousin I'm talking about. He's probably a man-whore just like Ryfon,' that was what went through his mind as he stood there like a statue.

'Okay, slowly turn around and walk out as if nothing happened. That f*cker can come find his dumba*s cousin himself!'

As soon as Hao Xuan turned around he heard water move from behind him. His heart skipped a beat as he turned his head halfway and saw a naked person staring at him. Her curious light brown eyes looked enchanting in the fog as they stared at Hao Xuan in confusion.

The first thing Hao Xuan thought was 'Such a shame a girl this beautiful fell for an elf b*stard.' But instead, he quickly looked away and covered his eyes while shouting.

” I'm so sorry, I was just looking for Ryfon's cousin, I thought you were him and-”

Before he could finish speaking, a rough, manly voice interrupted him.

”Brother Ryfon is here already?? I'll come out right now!”

”Eh?” Hao Xuan was taken aback. How did he not feel the presence of another person?

'Wait a second, was that b*stard also in the water? Oh my god, were they having sex or something?!'

With one eye closed he back again, trying his best to avoid looking at the girl in the water but could see no one else.

'Where...?'

The girl got out of the water and waved her hand as a bright red towel appeared in her hand. She used it to cover her bottom half and walked up to Hao Xuan who couldn't move a muscle.

”Yo, I'm sorry man, was listening to a new song so didn't hear you come in. Gime a few mins to get dressed, I'll meet you outside,” the ”girl” patted his shoulder and walked passed him casually.
