Chapter 87: Encountering Li Xiao Man (2/2)
“Could it be that the two of them have been have actually acquiesced to this?”
“Or could it be that the two of them have sent people out…….”
Ye Fan felt cold in his heart.
Jiang Yi Fei was clothed in white, cultured and elegant, anyone who looked at him would be dazed and could really be considered to seem otherworldly. Jiang Cai Xuan was lithe and graceful, elegant and moving, although she did have some arrogance in her, she was very compassionate towards Ting Ting and had left quite a good impression with Ye Fan.
Under the current circumstances Ye Fan could not comprehend what role did the two play in the current situation that was playing out. He was unsure if it was really as disastrous as he imagined, humans were complex and were difficult to fathom.
“Hopefully the two of them aren’t involved in this, otherwise, if Ting Ting lives in that sort of complicated family, I really don’t know if it’s a blessing or a calamity……” Ye Fan was beginning to feel worried for Ting Ting and old uncle Jiang.
This night, Ye Fan secretly headed back to the small store of old uncle Jiang. At this moment he could see two unique beasts who were patrolling in the air at the mountainous region just outside the small town. As they saying went, the most dangerous place was the safest place and he relaxed as he finally had a good night’s rest.
It was only when the second night came did Ye Fan sneak out of the small town and continue fleeing into the distance.
Three days later, Ye Fan was sleeping outdoors at a desolate area in the countryside when he saw a horseman of the Jiang Family riding a unique beast as it rushed through the air, flying into the distance. This made him shocked, the other party had caught up so quickly and this made him puzzled, how were they finding clues with regards to where he went?
“An ancient aristocratic family is too frightening, if I can’t enter the forbidden area, how am I going to shake them off?” Ye Fan was feeling anxious.
Finally, Ye Fan entered a large city within the Yan State, he felt that only with a large number of people would he be able to safely hide.
Besides the capital city of Yan State, this was the second biggest city, the number of people was not lower than a million and it was flourishing, the streets were wide and there were endless streams of horses and carriages, people continually went by and on both sides of the street shops stood in abundance, the sounds of buying and selling filled the air.
Ye Fan had been constantly on the run and was currently extremely fatigued. Only when he had entered this city did he finally heave a sigh of relief, the people of the Jiang Family could not possible ride their unique beasts on the big streets right?
It was already midday and Ye Fan’s stomach was rumbling with hunger, he touched his bosom but let out a bitter laugh, he did not have a single cent on him. He cut a sorry figure, this period of fleeing for his life had really pressured him into such a state.
“I have to find ways to eat a good meal, I can’t starve my body. I still need the accumulate energy to continue fleeing.” Ye Fan did not have the mood to sightsee and explore this flourishing town, he needed to find a place where he could have a meal.
Suddenly, Ye Fan concentrated hard as he saw a familiar figure, it was actually Li Xiao Man!
Her looks were no longer aged and decrepit and she had regained her youth. She was about 1.7 metres tall, slender and elegant, wearing a pure white dress which seemed to flutter in the wind, giving off a feeling that she did not eat the food of common mortals.
Whether it be now or the past, Li Xiao Man had always been exceptionally beautiful, her appearance quiet and exquisite, it may have been because she was now cultivating, her skin actually seemed to twinkle with a sparkling and translucent lustre, snow white and tender like that of a fine jade.
Li Xiao Man’s white dress danced in the air and her black hair naturally drifted, accentuating and making her skin seem even more sparkling and translucent. Her eyes were big and lashes long, seeming to be full or spiritual qi, her neck was as elegant as a white swan and her small waist could barely fill a grasp. Her legs were slender and perfectly straight, figure lithe and graceful, extremely perfect.
Compared to the past, she had lost a little of her ostentatiousness and gained a bit of nimbleness, she also seemed to have gained an otherworldly aura, like a fairy from the moon descended on earth
Ye Fan had never expected that he would see her here and naturally could not help but think of many past matters. There were sweet moments and also heartless and bitter memories. He turned his body and did not wish to reunite with her under these circumstances.
Li Xiao Man clearly did not notice Ye Fan, she was like a crane amongst a flock of chicken, graceful and nimble, her beautiful and otherworldly appearance attracted many glances and she naturally did not notice a haggard and fatigued youth in the distance.
Ye Fan turned and left, he did not want to remain here but did not expect to knock into someone in his rush.
“Little beggar watch where you go, the street is so wide but you actually knock into me!” A few young males and females were in front and a beautiful girl among them had an unhappy expression, Ye Fan had unintentionally knocked into her.
“Sorry!” Ye Fan hurriedly apologised.
“Junior sister, check if you’ve lost anything. The beggars nowadays resort to such methods to steal.” The young male reminded and blocked Ye Fan, preventing him from leaving.
Ye Fan had been fleeing day and night, his clothes were dirty and in tatters and his face was covered in dirty blots making him seem like a little beggar.
“Senior brother, senior sister……” At this moment Li Xiao Man walked over, although there were many people on the street, the crowd noticed that she was exquisitely beautiful and involuntarily made way for her, allowing her to swiftly draw closer.
“Let him go, I haven’t lost anything.” The girl who had been knocked into frowned as she said.
Ye Fan wanted to turn and leave but Li Xiao Man was already before the group and had noticed him.
“It’s you!”
Ye Fan’s stopped his movements, he did not expect to really run into her.
“Junior sister, you recognise this little beggar?” The few youths by the side had astonished expressions.
At this moment, Ye Fan’s clothes were in tatters and his entire body was covered in dirt. He looked haggard and fatigued. He had been running day and night and his mind was very tired, together with his tattered clothing, no matter how one looked at it, he looked like a person from the dregs of society.
