Cultivation Goddess
Chapters 319. Brim over
Guan Xing brought Fang Yin and Jian Heng onto a narrow, slightly dark path. The road was a little into the residential area so it looked deserted.
"Miss Yin, Mr. Heng, there's something important I want to say." Guan Xing looked to the right and to the left.
Seeing the dangerous situation, Fang Yin cast a protective spell around them. Now they did not have to worry about interference from outside the protective boundary.
"Say, Cake. What was? Seems like your face has been looking very agitated?" Fang Yin started the conversation.
Guan Xing did not want to delay relaying the news he had just learned. The hall of their resting place was visited by the emissaries from the Empire of the Eastern Continent. They showed a painting of Fang Yin's face.
Jian Heng and Fang Yin looked at each other. They had seen firsthand the painting that showed Fang Yin's face. Luckily he again covered his face as he exited the Black Jade hill region.
The members of the glacier tribe did not know Fang Yin's identity and face so Guan Xing did not have to worry about him. They answered simultaneously and said that they did not know the woman in the painting.
Now the three of them discussed to arrange a plan before re-joining the glacier tribe members in the village hall. If the village leader treated the messengers like them, then a number of those envoys would also stay in the hall with the entire glacier clan members.
"No need to worry, Grandpa Dimple. I'm gonna go stay over outside the hall. You and Brother Heng just go back with the others." Fang Yin felt that only he was wanted, so things would be safe if he was not with them.
Jian Heng did not want Fang Yin to be alone outside. Even though her lover was so great, she still needed someone else for a interlocutor.
"I'll accompany you. The two messengers have seen me too. They will definitely be suspicious if they don't find you with me, unless we both disappear," explained Jian Heng who was indeed a little reasonable.
'Hmm ... I wanted to kill the messengers with a poisoned needle. I'll get caught if Brother Heng is with me.' Fang Yin swung his lips as he felt like he had failed in his plan.
"That's right. All right, I'll go back to the glacier tribe and try to calm them down. They must be scared to be in a room with strangers." Guan Xing fused his hands together in a respectful manner.
Fang Yin resigned. Immediately he opened the protective spell that enveloped them and let Guan Xing go alone.
Fang Yin's strange attitude invited Jian Heng's suspicion. From the look on his face it was clear that Fang Yin kept an undisclosed wedge to him and Guan Xing.
"I know if you're thinking about something. Do you really not want to share it with me?"
Jian Heng's words made Fang Yin gasp. His eyes widened to the maximum limit staring at the man who was able to tear his heart apart.
"I ... I ...," Fang Yin's remark came to a halt as Jian Heng suddenly pulled him away quickly.
After the protective spell disappeared, one could see and hear the conversation of the two. People who live near them talk walking near the door. Jian Heng who happened to be facing towards the house saw the shadow of that person moving when he was hit by the light of the lantern.
Jian Heng brought Fang Yin to jump onto the roof of the house that was opposite the person and pointed out his whereabouts.
"Ah, I speak too loudly," whispered Fang Yin.
"Let's take refuge in a safe place" Jian Heng said without letting go of his hand.
The two jumped into the sky leaving the place together. There was no way they would stay in the village while the envoys were still there. Although the possibility is small, a little suspicion can make things worse.
They went to a place outside the village that felt quite safe. The area was dominated by rocky hills and precious stone mining. The majority of the population has a livelihood as a craftsman of stone jewelry and all its trinkets.
"There are a lot of holes here. What a creative people." Fang Yin saw the apparition below them standing at this moment.
"This area is a transit of traders. The advantage for them is also because they do not have to travel to market their products. The goods they needed could be obtained from the merchants who passed by here." Jian Heng added.
Fang Yin nodded.
The village did look a bit more advanced compared to the other villages in Fang Yin's home country. Prosperity owned by each village is different and uneven. Each state leader has their own rules that are differentiators.
"Rest, Yin'er." Jian Heng spread out a thick cloth for the mat.
He sits with his legs extended and both hands support the body behind his back.
Fang Yin followed after him. He sat beside Jian Heng in a different position. He folded his legs with his knees bent upward, his hands both on the side with his chest attached to his thighs.
Jian Heng looked at him fixedly. At first he was just guessing, not in the thought that his lover did have a plan that he wanted to do without his knowledge.
"I don't think it's gonna end well, Yin'er. They will be more sure if you are still alive and around this region. We'd better not take any action anytime soon."
Fang Yin's forehead wrinkled at the thought of Jian Heng's words. He thought that opinion might be true. It is very difficult to remove the trace of death in the general public. Surely the information of events and so forth will still get to Emperor Ning.
"It seems you're right. We won't be able to remove any trace of their death." Fang Yin sighed deeply to expel the excitement of his heart.
It flashed in his mind that those messengers were also going to the Silver Mountain. However, considering that the misty fortress that protected his mother's residence was hard to penetrate, his heart felt a little calm.
"Don't think too much, Yin'er. Go sleep! I'll take care of you." Jian Heng again took out a cloth for the headboard.
He gave the folded cloth to Fang Yin and also to her.
"We shouldn't get too close because we're not married." Fang Yin shifted the folds of the fabric that became the cushion slightly away.
"It doesn't matter if we take the distance. No matter how far you are, your place stays here." Jian Heng pointed at his own chest.
That small seduction made Fang Yin blush. Not wanting to talk much anymore, the two slept while staring at the vast expanse of sky.
They couldn't sleep that night. Many things flashed through Fang Yin's mind which made it difficult for him to fall asleep. Among them was Emperor Ning's emissary who already knew that he was still alive.
'I'm sure after this my wiggle room will be limited. They will be more intense to find where I am. I must immediately assemble an army and involve some people to help me.' Fang Yin continued to think about the plans that would be taken for the assault agenda.
For the territory of the Eastern Continent he would rely on Wu Tian Feng. For other territories he would ask for the help of Guan Xing, Emperor Jing, Nine Star Sect Chief and others.
Slowly Fang Yin tried to make peace with his heart and mind. After feeling a little calm, he turned his body to look at Jian Heng.
"Are you having trouble sleeping, Yin'er?" jian Heng asked who was also unable to fall asleep.
Fang Yin nodded then replied, "Yes. Tonight is so quiet. How is Grandpa Guan and the members of the glacier tribe. They must be wondering where we're going."
"Tomorrow we wait for them outside the village. After arriving at the Silver Mountain they would all definitely instantly understand." Jian Heng covered his mouth which was yawning soundlessly.
From behind the bush a snake crept closer to Fang Yin. However, the moment he sensed the terrifying aura from Fang Yin's body, the snake ran off the algae. Damn Jian Heng looked at him and unleashed an attack towards him.
"What's up, Brother Heng?" Fang Yin looked behind his back.
"The animal is trying to disturb us. It's a shame my throw didn't hit him." Jian Heng lamented his hasty and inopportune attack.
"Leave it. His bite won't make us die." Fang Yin yawned and felt sleepy.
"Hm." Jian Heng nodded.
The two slept facing each other by taking distance. They don't talk to each other anymore.
Where Guan Xing is, though,
The members of the glacier tribe, look uneasy when they see ten messengers also staying in the same place as them. The messengers did not fall asleep immediately and chose to chat and sit in a crowd.
Guan Xing and the men acted as guards of the tribe members who were dominated by women and the elderly. His heart felt faint when he saw the strange gazes of the envoys. He was afraid they were making a fuss in the midst of peace.
'I have to stay alert. Miss Yin and Mr. Heng are nowhere near me. I have to try to face them alone. The departure of Miss Yin and the Third Prince was already a matter of course. They did the right thing.' Guan Xing weighed in while being within the closest distance to Emperor Ning's envoy.
The envoys smiled cunningly when they saw Guan Xing and the others getting sleepy. They looked at each other and used sign language with nods and trunks.
