Chapter 8: What Happened? (1/2)
Lin Xiao was dumbfounded.
”It's better,” the disciple said with a smile.
Lin Xiao was pulled back to reality. He looked at the outer disciple and chose to greet him politely. After all, that young man had helped him to execute Mountain's Punch better. For these villagers who never have proper training, every single help worth a lot.
”Thank you for your help. I'm Lin Xiao.”
”I'm Wenren Yu,” The outer disciple greeted back. He looked at Lin Yun hesitantly as if asking for name.
Lin Yun smiled in response. ”I'm Lin Yun.”
”Thank you for helping me.”'
”You should thank my brother. He's the one who found you and drag you back here.”
”Uhm, thank you very much.” Wenren Yu bowed his head. ”But I need to leave before I cause trouble for you two.”
Lin Xiao was stunned by how timid this disciple was. Shouldn't all disciple of Taiyi Sect be valiant and powerful? They were the disciple of the most powerful sect in this place, but the way Wenren Yu acted only made him felt that the image didn't match.
”Wait a minute.”
”Y…yes?”
”Are you Taiyi Sect outer disciple?”
Wenren Yu's eyes flashed as he got into defensive position. While Lin Xiao didn't know that stance or what Wenren Yu planned to do, he still gave hand signal for Lin Yun to stay away. Lin Yun might have reached rank 4, but it was only through the help of medicine.
In terms of combat power, Lin Yun was still very weak.
”My villagers said that the sect is destroyed.” Lin Xiao chose to continue, but he was also prepared for battle. In case Wenren Yu decided to attack, he would be ready. ”And there's no survivor. However, you wear the robe of outer disciple of Taiyi Sect.”
”Ah….”
Wenren Yu looked at his own clothes as realization dawned to him. He escaped from that hellish nightmare when he was still dressed in their clothes. It was no wonder that the pursuers could identify him so easily.
How stupid.
”Do you plan to kill me?” Wenren Yu asked.
Lin Xiao felt that this disciple's IQ was damaged. ”I don't have any animosity with Taiyi Sect. In fact, I want to join that sect too once I can reach body training rank 6!”
”Oh.”
It was then Wenren Yu realized that the one in front of him were only two child villagers. The villagers around this area all have people who wanted to enter Taiyi Sect, so it was not strange for him to meet with one.
It was just… he couldn't trust them easily.
”Also, I'm only one rank below you. With your wounded body, do you think that I pose no chance to defeat you?” Lin Xiao dealt another blow as he pointed in Wenren Yu's bandaged body.
Wenren Yu closed his eyes for a moment then opened it again. ”What do you want?”
