Chapter 116 - Qianru, The Little Minx (3) (1/2)

With this thoughts in her mind, she lost her concentration. Mu Xin noticed this and decided to flicked her forehead.

"What are you spacing about?" Mu Xin put his hands to his back.

"Nothing. Just thinking why is your hair silver?." Yi Ling acted like she wasn't as curious.

Mu Xin's blue eyes instantly turned darker, it was so fast that Yi Ling wasn't able to catch it. "Why the sudden curiosity?"

"Nothing. It looks so beautiful. I wish I had one." Yi Ling giggled. She was trying to pry Mu Xin's mouth, he hardly tell her things about himself.

"Are there others like you? with silver hair?" Yi Ling pursed her lips together. She knew that she was pushing her limits.

Mu Xin froze. An image of a man passed his mind.

Yi Ling looked up and noticed that Mu Xin wasn't looking at her. He didn't said anything, his thoughts were somewhere else.

"Am I not allowed to know it too?" Yi Ling got up and walk to Mu Xin.

They were currently up in the hill. Mu Xin's white hair was being blown slightly by the breeze. Yi Ling wished she could turned his hair back to Silver again. As if having a Silver hair meant something.

Mu Xin sighed. How was he supposed to explain this? Without divulging that he is King Jin? Even though he separated himself to that world, this silver hair can never go away. It was a mark that he came from that world. The world that was trying to set them apart. It wasn't just the so called God's that ascended in heaven from Huaxia, that wanted them apart. There was more to it. That's why he needed Yi Ling to get stronger. Only when she unlocks the 7 seals, will she be able to stand against them.

"Mu Xin? Where did you come from?" Yi Ling lifted her hand to his cheeks. It was only till now did she noticed the hesitation in his eyes. He still wasn't replying.

"You said that King Jin killed everyone in heaven. How did you survive? Did Mei Ling helped you?" Yi Ling gulped.

It was almost 3 weeks since the two herbs started healing the bow. During this time, Mu Xin taught Yi Ling almost everyday.

The time she spent with him, made her certain about something. King Jin and Mu Xin looked exactly the same. In some what ways, she could see bits of traces of King Jin in Mu Xin's movements.
