522 ANOTHER PERSON (1/2)
Senja was rising a small red silk pouch for Gong Xu to see that contained the heirloom of Black Sword Clan in front of his eyes while he looked the item in Senja's hand questioningly.
”Can we talk in somewhere less crowded?” Senja looked around her, with this many people presence, no matter how low they talk, it would still be within an ear shot. Not to mention they were staring at Senja distinctly.
”This way.” Reluctantly Gong Xu waved at her to follow him out of the tent.
They walked further away, near the outermost of the sanctuary, went up the hill.
”Are you planning to kill me here?” Senja grumbled when she felt her legs were getting cramp. ”It is too far!”
But, of course Gong Xu couldn't hear her complain as he walked two steps in front of her.
Pick up her pace, Senja tapped his shoulder. Frowning, she vocalized her sentence word by word. ”Where are we going? It is too far! Are you still holding a grudge toward Xiao Tianyao and planning to kill me?”
”Ridiculous.” Gong Xu swatted Senja's hand from his shoulder. ”I need to pick herbal plant up there.” He pointed at the top of the hill.
Senja kept grumbling behind Gong Xu as they climbed their way up to the hill and only stopped when Gong Xu had reached the destined place where the herbal plant grew.
”So what is that?” Gong Xu crossed his arms and nodded at the pouch that hanging on Senja's waist.
”This is the Black Sword Clan's heirloom, I need to give this to the right owner. So, where is Senja?”
Gong Xu gave some thought before he guessed. ”The token of Shadow Guard?”
”Hmm, yes.”
”Senja didn't need that. She didn't need such kind of power, you can have it for yourself.” Gong Xu drifted his attention from Senja and started to pluck a yellow leaves from the bushes near him.
Senja frowned by his reaction, then he tapped his shoulder again. ”It is not you who decide.”
”She is with me now.” He said firmly. ”She doesn't want to involve in any of that again.”
”Like I said, it is not you who decide something for her.” Senja was more stubborn than him in term of determination. ”Moreover I have something to discuss with you and this is important.”
”In that case, you need to wait until I am finished. Sit there.” Gong Xu pointed at the place under lush tree.
