16 Night Encounter (2/2)

”Alright.. I beg of you, Is that enough?”

Jiao Yu said it so immediately that he almost couldn't catch. Yu Jie Xing bore his eyes on the young female in front of him, the first time they met in the carriage was not that memorable and he didn't think of it that much, however, tonight's encounter was truly unforgettable.

He was on his way to the city after achieving his goal and used this route with his entourage to get back. However, who would've known that after just going deep in the forest, they saw someone running wildly like a wild animal and was being chased after by a woman. It was laughable on his part to witness this and was about to ignore the tryst as it was not his business to get involve with, had he not sensed the raw blood thirst and the people waiting down somewhere, he would've believe it was a lover's quarrel.

”You really do speak nicely.” Yu Jie Xing smiled and said, ”Come out.”

One did not know who he was talking to but in a blink of an eye, a crowd of black and armored clad people came out behind the trees surrounding them, numbering about seven and before going behind the back of Yu Jie Xing.

Jiao Yu was surprised to see this. Her martial arts were not weak at all but she did not know that there were so many people hiding here and their skills were undoubtedly all higher than her. Moreover the man who was able to gather and move these people clad in both black and armor, it really made others question his identity. One did not know how long have they stayed there and how much did they see just like their master and Jiao Yu could not help but to wish that they did not arrive at all.

Once again she heard him speak, ”How many are they?”

A man in black clothes cupped his hand and said, ”There are roughly twenty people surrounding us.”

Jiao Yu was shocked to hear that there were too many people that had come to get her and thought that, the people who was left behind was being aggressive now that they have no more methods left. There were too many of them and had she gone and done things alone, she would've been found out here in the forest with no breath.

”Are there no other routes to avoid confrontation?” She asked.

The armored clad man did not reply nor did he take a look at her, which annoyed her.

”Did a cat got your tongue?”

Yu Jie Xing smiled at her and said, ”Unfortunately, they don't answer to anyone else but me.”

”Then ask them.” Jiao Yu said impatiently.'There's not much time' She thought.

”Such impatience... But don't worry even if there are no routes left, I can naturally make another one.” Yu Jie Xing confidently said.

The crowd of people lowered their head and agreed before disappearing in a blink of an eye to the darkness of the night. Their actions were surprisingly consistent and it was difficult to have such traits even for her or Qing Yue. Jiao Yu was thinking deeply when she heard Yu Jie Xing speaking to her, ”Some time would be required so we should head the other way.”

Yu Jie Xing walked forward without a care of what was ahead of them and only stopped when he noticed that Jiao Yu did not move or walk. ”Is something wrong?”

Jiao Yu looked at the ground and was thinking that if she go with him and his entourage, she might get in deeper trouble, not from anyone else but from the man in front of her. However, what Jiao Yu did not know that she'd already entered the eyes of the young prime minister nor did she knew who and what is the identity of Yu Jie Xing, aside from 'the man from the qinwang fu'.

After a moment of thinking, she said, ”I think it is better if we go on our separate ways than go together.”

And with that, she disappeared from the view of Yu Jie Xing.

A man clad in black came back and walked towards Yu Jie Xing, ”We created a route for you and the girl, wait... where'd she go?”

Yu Jie Xing didn't pay attention to the man and said, ”Let's go.”
