222 Who Is Following Me? (2/2)

It wouldn't be good to him if he stayed around with them, talking about the same topic.

And... However... He just got out of there. He actually got away from that extremely dangerous place.

[What is wrong?

I made it.

How come I just made it?

Wasn't it too easy?]

Ye Xiao truly felt strange about it.

He kept feeling strange till he arrived at the Ling-Bao Hall.

He even suspected that the ladies were letting him off in order to catch him later. They might just want to figure out all about his identity and his place. On the way back to the Ling-Bao Hall, Ye Xiao had operated his spiritual mind and sensibility in full effort, yet he found nothing.

There might be two possible reasons why he couldn't find anything. First, the ladies might be too powerful to be discovered while chasing him. He was too weak. However, he knew it was not the truth. Bing Xinyue was indeed far stronger than him, but she had no idea how powerful Ye Xiao really was, so she wouldn't be that careful. For her, to follow an ant who was lower than the Sky Origin Stage was a piece of cake. She would think that Ye Xiao was unable to notice. However, deep inside Ye Xiao, he was still the Xiao Monarch. The Xiao Monarch had been far stronger than Bing Xinyue. His spiritual mind and sensibility would definitely sense her if she was chasing him. Yet he found nothing.

The other one was much simpler. There was nobody following him at all.

[Isn't it too unreasonable if nobody is following me?]

After making sure that nobody was following him, he returned to the Ling-Bao Hall at once. For safety concerns, he didn't get back home this night. He just stayed overnight in the Ling-Bao Hall.

No talking for a whole night. The next day afternoon, nobody came to him. He started to feel relieved.

So he took several pieces of rare stones from the Ling-Bao Hall and left. He was in relief at this moment.

However, when he just got out the Ling-Bao Hall, he shuddered.

It was out of nothing at all. It was like he was fearing something all of a sudden.

He knew something was wrong.

It was his spiritual sensibility that told him so. In other words, somebody was watching him.

He was very close to the Sky Origin Stage. With just a tiny step, he would become a Sky Origin Stage cultivator. It was impossible that he would shudder for no reason.

[So it finally came? It is my spiritual sensibility telling me that I am being watched. The one who is watching me must be much stronger than me. That is why I can't sense him directly. It must be somebody from Wenren Chuchu's sect who is trying to figure out who I am. I am not surprised though. This person is definitely not Bing Xinyue.

Otherwise, I would have sensed the traces of her because I have contacted with her. Who is this person then? I really didn't know that their sect was so powerful. They actually have another cultivator that is as strong as Bing Xinyue. Don't they fear that I will be pissed?]

He walked slowly to a corner and came out with other thoughts, [Maybe there is a third possibility. That perhaps a super grandmaster cultivator who is watching me from a rather far place from here. That person may have just glanced at me for a second... But if that is real, it means there is a cultivator who can make me shudder with only a glance from long distance. Then that person must be at least at the sixth level of the Dao Origin Stage.]

He was thinking, [No matter what, it is real that I am being watched. Maybe it was just some cultivator who walked pass this place. Maybe it was someone who had been following me for a long time... If it was just someone passing by, so be it. If it was somebody watching me intentionally, I will be exposed if I return to the House of Ye.]

Thinking of that, he made the decision at once.

He wasn't surprised being watched. He had actually expected it. He didn't show any difference on his face. He just stretched his neck and casually walked on the street under the sunshine with his arms crossed on his chest.

In the dark corner far from him, a dark shadow was watching him and murmured, ”This guy must be that Feng Zhiling... But why is he so slow?”

She kept looking at Ye Xiao walking from south to north on the street. He stopped and rubbed his head... And then he actually walked back.
