Chapter 119 - The Truth (1/2)

Yi Ling had brought the little girl, a little bit down from the peak. She didn't need to stay far, she knew that she could at least hold long enough to "interview" this kid. Sooner or later, Minzhe will be able to solve the Formation and open the gates again. She needed to be quick.

They were currently standing near a creek. The little girl was surprisingly quiet and only waited for Yi Ling to speak.

Yi Ling took a deep breath, she knew that there were things that are going to be beyond her. Yet, she didn't like walking blind. She needed to know, who her enemies are. It seems like Mu Xin was determined to shield her and she hated it. She wanted to stand next to him, fight with him.

If Mu Xin and King Jin are one and the same, then why did he hid this fact from her? Why were there two persons existing at the same time? Why were they totally opposite? Qianru might not know the reason for this, since she was injured and had gotten lost. But, she should be able to at least explain to her regarding Mu Xin's identity.

"I ask the questions and you answer. Truthfully! I had enough of all the lies and secrecy!" Yi Ling clenched her fist, the fury within her heart was growing. She didn't know why, but she really was mad. Her anger was genuine, as if it was hidden there for a long time.

"Yes, Master." Qianru replied. Anything that her Master needed to know, she was willing to answer. She follows only her and her alone. She had already pledge her life to her Master.

No matter who she was now, her soul was one and the same. Luckily, their faces looked exactly the same too. It was no doubt that this woman in front of her, was Meiling! Added the fact that King Jin was with her.

By the looks of it, she doesn't know a thing about him. That's why she could feel the anger in her Master's heart. Even though they haven't made a contract physically, their souls was intertwined. Her old Master Meiling had done so. In order to find each other again, when time comes. It was like her Master had a premonition, that she would die soon.

"Who are you?" Yi Ling didn't bother looking at her, she was currently looking at her reflection in the water.

"My name is Qianru. I am the spirit that lives within the Divine Harmony Bow." Qianru was looking at her Master's back. She didn't dare moved or added any personal words.

"Who do you think I am?" Yi Ling gulped. Her hands was getting sweaty, she already had an inkling in her heart. The moment Qianru yelled as "Master". It was the same feeling she had felt, when Minzhe called her "mother".
