A Journey Against the World

A Journey Against the World
Chapter 160


The return journey continues, this time Zusami is leading the way, he said will accelerate their return in his own way. No one rejected Zusami as the caretaker leader. Day after day went on, it did not feel like they had been in the Eternal Realm for a week. During that time they often meet spirit monsters or inhibitors, but do not last long because Zusami is able to finish everything briefly, without the need to sweat.


Lately, Qixuan felt that there was something strange, not too strange, just that she felt the closeness of Zusami and Shua Xie lately deteriorated. Sometimes the two of them argue, rarely talk to each other, let alone say hello. Qixuan questioned what had happened between the two of them to Shua Xie, but the girl coldly replied, only a minor misunderstanding. Qixuan was not convinced that it was just a minor misunderstanding, the proof of which they did not make up even to this day. Moreover, Zusami also often cornered Shua Xie with questions that made Shua Xie silent, sometimes in order to avoid the question, Shua Xie chose to rest alone without friends.


Shua Xie's attitude like that not only made Zusami even more suspicious, they all felt the same way. In addition, Zusami no longer felt the existence of a large aura or some kind of bright aura that usually always emanated in Shua Xie's body, Zusami often felt and saw the aura, but ever since Shua Xie realized, Zusami felt the aura, Zusami never saw that aura again.


The aura was not important, but for Zusami, it was as proof that Shua Xie was a candidate for the Leader of the whole world. That aura had something special feeling that only certain races could feel.


Tonight, as usual, they lit a fire, burned the meat and ate it together. But only Zusami was slightly different, different in their eyes. They never saw Zusami hungry or thirsty. Zusami always seemed fit despite never eating during the week.


It was only natural that he had a high cultivation base even though all of his strength had yet to fully recover. After all, majestic creatures did not seem to eat food the same as human food.


"Tomorrow, the possibility that we will arrive at the Seven Twin Pagodas as long as our journey is not hampered. But I think tomorrow will be your last day here" said Zusami, all looking at him seriously, but not for Shua Xie.


"Then, what will we be home tomorrow? But where is the magical treasure? Where is the treasure that many people are talking about? Can't we go home without bringing anything? Doesn't this trip feel like a waste?" Juan Yu stared at everything one by one, he only wanted them to be aware, the trip to the Eternal Realm was a waste of time. If he knew the result would be like this it would be nice for him to study in the Kunlun sect instead of taking part. Nothing, their lives are threatened.


"Right, how's this Chairman?" Xiu An looked at Qixuan, wanting to know what the Chairman thought. Qixuan looked slowly followed by a resigned shoulder movement. He also did not know what to look like, to be honest he also felt disappointed with the trip this time.


"Not finding anything is better than your life ending up like a follower of the Third Prince" Shua Xie said. All eyes were on him. Shua Xie gawked casually, "Why? What did I say something was wrong?"


"No, forget it." Qixuan sighed softly, standing up to walk towards a tree not far from her. There, a young man was resting comfortably under the shade of a tree illuminated by a bright full moon.


"Qixuan." Fang Xin slightly panicked to see Qixuan approaching him. It was a shock because during this week Qixuan continued to avoid him, but now the little girl was actually approaching him.


"Prince Three-"


"Call me by my name." Fang Xin interrupted. Qixuan had stopped hearing Fang Xin's words, but then she came to a realization.


"Fang Xin." Qixuan was already sitting beside Fang Xin. The young man continued to stare at her, making Qixuan feel a little awkward, "Ehem ... how are you doing?" Qixuan asked just looking for an awkward atmosphere.


Fang Xin smiled faintly, "I'm fine. Are you worried about me?" Turn to ask. Qixuan had misbehaved again, but she still tried to maintain her cold attitude so as not to be caught if she was embarrassed, upset and happy.


"Of course." Fang Xin immediately looked at him, a little surprised Qixuan would answer his question with such a word. Qixuan cleared her throat again, "Em .. don't get me wrong. Your sister Xingxing asked me to take care of you, and I promised her."


"You're clarifying it so I don't misunderstand? I have to say it would be better if you didn't explain it, even if I knew you were only worried for a moment, at least those were the happy moments I could have right now." Fang Xin smiled bitterly, looking at the grass he had been playing with ever since. While he is not aware that there is a heart that beats faster because of his words.


Qixuan immediately turned her gaze to the left, her cheeks were already hot, even though they were all words but somehow her heart and body could not compromise. Qixuan was getting more nervous.


"W-what are you talking about?"


"It doesn't matter, it's just a chaotic feeling" Fang Xin replied weakly. Qixuan looked back at him with a pushy look. Collapsing was already a huge wall he had made to lock his feelings in. Free, even though he had not met Fang Xin for 2 years and was even determined to forget about the young man, his feelings and thoughts could not work together. His mind might have already refused, but his feelings ..Even Qixuan herself was confused as to what she was feeling.


"Oh yeah .. tomorrow will also be the day of our last meeting." Qixuan felt weak hearing that sentence. Fang Xin looked at him, "May I do something to you? For the last time."


"W-what do you want?"


"Close your eyes."


"Hey! Do you want to do something nasty to me?!" Qixuan was angry, thinking if Fang Xin would do strange things to her. But the accused actually spurted a funny laugh that made Qixuan become misbehavior.


"Haha! Since when do you have such thoughts? Or are you hoping to kiss me?"


"Stop!"


"Haha!!"


"Stupid!" Qixuan flashed her punch right at Fang Xin's right arm. The young man only grimaced softly without stopping his laughter.


Fang Xin caught onto Qixuan's two hands who kept hitting her, "Yes, yes. But can you stop hitting me? My arm is already hurting."


Qixuan retracted her hand, snorting softly irritatedly with the young man. Fang Xin chuckled, happy to be playing Qixuan like she used to. If that hadn't happened, maybe their relationship was still very close.


"Say what you want?" Qixuan raised her voice, spontaneously making Fang Xin look at her in surprise yet an instant turned happy.


"Close your eyes and you'll know."


"Why do I have to close my eyes?"


"Because it's a surprise."


"Curtain! It sucks." Qixuan immediately closed her eyes, although she was annoyed by Fang Xin's never-changing demeanor, always succeeding in upsetting him in a row. Fang Xin approached Qixuan's face, as her hand was pointed towards the girl's white neck.


"Already, you can reopen your eyes," Fang Xin ordered after finishing attaching something to the girl's neck. Qixuan opened her eyes, staring at a simple yet beautifully fruiting necklace. Qixuan looked at Fang Xin in surprise.


"You found it?!" tanyanya.


Fang Xin nodded softly, "When you left, I searched for the necklace in the ruins of your burning house. And I found the necklace in a little box. Don't you love that necklace so much?"


"I love this necklace so much." Qixuan looked at the necklace she was holding. Slowly unconsciously her tears fell making the young man in front of her panic, "Hiks, hiks .. I thought I wouldn't see Mom's necklace anymore."


"Qixuan, are you crying?"


Qixuan raised her face, smiling at Fang Xin without caring for her tears that kept falling, "Thank you."


"But you're crying!"


"This stupid happy cry!"


"Ah, really? I don't know."


"Basic fool!" Qixuan intended to wipe her tears with the back of her hand. But Fang Xin directly blocked his hand of it.


"What"


"St! Shut up, let me wipe your tears." Fang Xin began to wipe away Qixuan's tears gently. Unaware that the girl was dumbfounded because of her actions. Even his heart was racing like it was about to explode.


***


"Beautiful love, right?"


"What do you mean by those two young people?"


"Who do you think I offended? A tree? The rocks?" The black-robed figure turned around, staring at the annoyed young man in black.


"Are you jealous of their love story?" ask the man calmly.


The cloaked figure gawked in annoyance, "Don't joke! I don't need useless love like that."


"really? If I'm not mistaken, you've never been in a relationship at all. Could you have a disorder? Or is there no one interested in you?"


"Tsakuya! Stop that bullshit before I finish you off!" The man immediately covered his mouth pretending to be afraid of the figure's anger. The figure glared at his eyes, a sign that he really did not like the words of the man in black.


"I'm not envious. I'm only interested in the unique-eyed woman who sits not far from them! That woman, I love her aura."
