”Brother Xia, there’s a cave right ahead. We can seek shelter within!” A female voice came from the outside. Following it was the voice of a male. By the sounds of it, they both seemed relatively young.

”Yes, be careful, Yuhan.” Xia Youtian said thoughtfully.

...

”Who’s there?” The moment these two entered the cave, Lin Fan asked, pretending that he had just woken up.

The moment Xia Youtian heard the presence of someone, he looked at the other party warily. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he couldn’t feel any aura from this person. Just a normal anybody.

”Hi, fellow traveler brother. It’s pouring out there, so we’re just trying to seek shelter here for the night.” Xia Youtian replied politely.

”Ah, right. No worries. There’s a fire over there which you guys can use to warm up with. It’ll be easy to catch a cold if you guys are drenched.” Lin Fan said as he sat up. In this pitch-dark cave, the dim fire was not enough to light up the entire place.

”Yes.” Xia Youtian nodded his head. He then sat down with He Yuhan cross-legged, as both of them started channeling their True Energy. A white mist slowly floated around them and their wet clothing dried instantly.

”Oh, so the both of you are martial artists.” Lin Fan acted surprised.

”That’s right. How about you, brother? Where are you from?” Xia Youtian laughed, but he was still wary in his heart.

Ever since they had fought his way out of the family, they had since dodged three ambush attempts on their way here. If not for the rain, they wouldn’t have rested here as well.

But now that it was pouring outside, their tracks and scent should be covered by the rain. Those men should not be able to chase them here.

”Just a normal resident of the Qinshen dynasty.” Lin Fan laughed.

”Brother Xia, please consume this.” He Yuhan took out a pill from her storage sack. The moment she took it out, the cave was filled with a pleasant aroma of the pill.

”It smells good…” Lin Fan was caught by surprise. This pill was good stuff! But he acted coy.

”This is just a normal cold removing pill to keep us warm. Nothing much.” Xia Youtian patted He Yuhan’s hand gently, implying for her not to be too extravagant so as to not attract attention.

The only reason why he was able to escape from the family was all thanks to He Yuhan. But at the same time, he had dragged her into trouble along with him.

He Yuhan looked at Lin Fan and smiled gently.

But this smile was more of a warning: ‘No matter who you are, you better not try anything funny.’

”Oh…” Lin Fan did not say anything more. Lying down, ”Both of you have a good rest. I’ll be turning in first since I’ve still gotta rush off tomorrow morning.”

”Sure…”

...

The night was quiet as Xia Youtian and He Yuhan engaged in a hushed conversation.

They were sabotaged, therefore, there was no way they could remain in that family which they had been staying with for the past 17 years. If not for Sister Yuhan’s help, he would have long fallen prey to them.

Even though he knew that Sister Yuhan wasn’t anyone from an ordinary background, he had known her since he was young. Thus, he trusted her wholeheartedly.

Besides, now that he had a pericelestial cultivation base, Xia Youtian was also clear in his heart that most of his achievements today were all thanks to Sister Yuhan.

For the past few years, Sister Yuhan had always returned with some mysterious pills to share with him. Even though she always insisted that they were ordinary pills, Xia Youtian was no fool. He knew that these were special pills. After consuming them, his cultivation speed would always increase tremendously.

”Let’s take a rest first.” Xia Youtian eyed Lin Fan before turning around to tell Yuhan.

”Yes.”

...

Lin Fan was wide awake the whole-time round. His thoughts were on these two people.

Now, there was nothing special about the lad, he was definitely a poor f*ck. Average cultivation base, and there was definitely nothing to be squeezed from him.

But that young lady was different. To think that her cultivation base would be way higher than this lad. In fact, she was more powerful than most people Lin Fan had come across.

Pericelestial full cultivation.
