Somewhere in the Ma Empire, Fei Chen is walking with Jia Li with the Sweet Cat and the pet eagle Hua Ying seen in front of them.
“This light leads us through a forest full of Demonic Beasts, lucky he memorized the safest route. I don't know if I should say thank you to that damn woman or not.” Fei Chen looked at the low-flying pet eagle Hua Ying and walked over to the Sweet Cat.
After traveling together for less than a week. Fei Chen and Jia Li looked familiar.
‘He's younger than me, but his words when he first met pissed me off!’ Indeed Fei Chen had said cynical things to Jia Li and it still imprinted his heart.
“Brother Fei, what business do you have going to the Ma Empire? What we both did was nothing more than an intruder!” Jia Li again reprimanded Fei Chen after repeatedly saying this. Fei Chen never told Jia Li the reason, but this time Fei Chen answered his goal of going to the Ma Empire.
“I'm sure you don't understand my feelings. But since you're four years older than me and you're a swordsman, you should have seen something like that in the village.” Fei Chen looked at the vast mountain range before him with Jia Li.
“Destination? I just want to reclaim my late mother's valuables. But my real goal is to meet them. Those who will kill others without hesitation in order to satisfy their own desires. To reclaim my freedom, that's what I'm going to do now. Even though I said so, with my current abilities I will not be able to avenge my family's death.” Fei Chen finished his words with both hands clenched tightly.
Jia Li's eyes widened at Fei Chen's words, ‘I could feel a heartbeat filled with anger, but at the same time I felt sad. Is it because Brother Fei Chen is the same as me? Victims of human selfishness.’.
Fei Chen let out a long sigh, “I spoke at length. Oh, aye. Isn't Sister Jia a member of the Sword Valley Sect, then why come with me to the Ma Empire?”
This time it was Fei Chen's turn to ask, Jia Li looked puzzled and played her thin long hair that was close to her ears.
“I just don't memorize the way home. And didn't I ask you to take me home?!” jia Li said a little shouting. His face turned red and looked at Fei Chen timidly.
“Oh, I really can't believe there's anyone who doesn't memorize the way home to his own home. How laughable.” Fei Chen's reply made Jia Li stomp his feet to the ground violently.
“You are younger than me, so speak politely to me!” Jia Li looked like he wanted to say something rude, yet he held it back or rather he could not.
“And you are older than me, but depend on me, this younger one.” Fei Chen said as he walked over to the Sweet Cat.
‘Basic, heartless men! I just got this treatment for the first time from a man my age!’ Jia Li was annoyed at Fei Chen's calm demeanor, but at the same time his heart skipped a beat when he saw Fei Chen's actions and Fei Chen's cold voice.
‘She said her task was done and now she will return to her employer's place.’ The Sweet Cat explained.
“Thanks, eagle. If you stay with me longer, I'm afraid, I'll burn you and eat you up!” Fei Chen caught the eagle and watched the two eagle eyeballs closely.
“I feel like I'm being watched by someone. How do I feel?” Fei Chen released his hand grip on the eagle.
‘Already expected, Chen, you're very observant. The woman named Hua Ying controls the body of her pet eagle and leads us to this place. What an amazing technique. But I never thought he could talk to me, despite controlling the eagle's body.’ Sweet Cat sat in her arms while staring at the pet eagle Hua Ying who was flying away from her, ‘But in her eyes, she only saw Chen talking to a cat himself. I feel sorry if Chen is considered insane by Hua Ying.’
“We'd better go now to Mafei City, my birthplace.” Fei Chen said confidently even though he did not know which direction to go.
“Do you know the direction to Mafei City?”
‘Chen, do you know the direction to Mafei City?’
Jia Li and the Sweet Cat asked simultaneously, Fei Chen who was looking at the mountains fell silent on his own because he was consumed by his words.
“Eh, don't tell me you don't know the way to Mafei City after saying confidently like that?” Jia Li purposely stroked Fei Chen who kept a calm face with slightly reddish cheeks.
“Follow me.” Fei Chen walked over and ignored Jia Li and walked up the mountains.
“Basic doesn't know direction! You have to take responsibility if we get lost!” Jia Li shouted and chased after Fei Chen.
“I don't want to hear that from you!” Fei Chen continued walking and ignored Jia Li's yelling that was annoyed with him, “I will take responsibility, so shut up and follow me!”
Sweet Cat who saw Fei Chen and Jia Li so excited, ‘They are both so adorable. Compared to the previous two women who met Chen, Jia Li looked younger and was more or less the same age as Chen. Is it because of its potent nature that makes Jia Li look the same age as Chen?’
The Sweet Cat spoke in her own heart as she walked following Fei Chen and Jia Li who were treading the mountains.
