Heaven Road
2. The injured legend 2


Relax, peace... That was what Yao He felt when he saw the forest and meadow before him. The river flowing quietly beside the meadow made the calm even more complete. There was no noise, not even the gurgling of water. Only occasionally the slightest wind that hit his face and hair.


"Uncle Yao..." Yin Sheng's voice restored Yao He's consciousness from his daydream.


It seemed that Yin Sheng had come along with Xie Qinling with some food supplies in his hands.


"What are you guys doing here?" Yao He was cynical of the two people who had helped them. He still could not accept the fate he suffered. Losing strength to someone like him, was a very painful blow. He even thought about ending his life now.


"Is Uncle still angry?" Yin Sheng sat down beside Yao He. Followed by Xie Qinling who sat a bit away, afraid if anyone saw and occurred misperception.


"angry? Why am I angry?" Yao He did not stare at Yin Sheng who was now beside him. He stared at the river in front of him. Take out a small stone and throw it with all his might towards the river.


"Then let's eat first... I've cooked a lot for us." Yin Sheng opened the food supply and began to arrange it on the plate.


"It's uncle... Eating in this place can definitely calm the mind..." Yin Sheng held out a plate of food to Yao He.


Prangs...


The plate that Yin Sheng gave was pushed aside by Yao He. Food splattered on the grass so that it was impossible to eat again.


Xie Qinling was surprised to see Yao He's treatment. But the more surprised was certainly Yin Sheng, never once had he been treated so harshly from others like this. Yin Sheng ran home.


Seeing his only child so mentally wounded, Xie Qinling's emotions were provoked.


"What are you doing? Can't you just be a little polite to the person who helped you?" Xie Qinling kicked Yao He's back from behind, making Yao He have to fall down onto the grass.


"I don't need you guys! What are you helping me for?" Yao He stood up and looked at Xie Qinling with emotion. Don't take it from behind.


"What's? The men are ungrateful. You'd better die drowning in the bottom of the river."


"I didn't ask for help either. Ank that's the only one who's acting pretentious by helping me."


"Yin Sheng's... That boy was Yin Sheng by name... And he's the kid who helped you." Xie Qinling felt free to argue with Yao He. He preferred to pursue Yin Sheng.


"Sound one thing... We don't need thanks from you for helping you. But at least do not overflow your emotions because you have lost your strength. Basic dantian defect!" Xie Qinling felt the need to give a little swearing to Yao He. Yao He had given Yin Sheng a heart wound, it was only natural that he also gave one, two insults to Yao He.


"And what's your disability saying?" Yao He felt ignited emotions hearing the swearing from Xie Qinling. He gathered all the qi he could gather into his hands, and dealt a swift blow towards Xie Qinling.


Trangs...


Yao He was surprised instead of playing to see Xie Qinling fend off a punch full of qi from herself with a sword. A golden-handled sword with an eagle head at the end. Yao stared at the ring that Xie Qinling was wearing in her right hand. And Yao He was certain that the ring that Xie Qinling was using was the Dimension Ring.


Yao He launched a few punches, but Xie Qinling managed to fend them all off. Even Xie Qinling managed to land a kick into Yao He's stomach. Making Yao He fall down once again onto the grass.


"You... Who the hell are you? You're not just anyone!" Yao He was flabbergasted. The woman before him did not use qi at all in the short fight earlier. Everything he did was purely sword technique. A person with such sword techniques is definitely not an arbitrary person.


"You don't need to know who I am. But I warn you if you hurt my son again. Then I'll make sure you'll really enjoy the name of death." Threaten Xie Qinling while running after her son. The golden-handled sword also returned itself stored in his Dimensional Ring.


Yao He could only look at the back of Xie Qinling who was running after Yin Sheng.


"Sheng..." Xie Qinling looked at the astonished son who was sitting pensively on one of the chairs under the oak tree.


"Is Uncle one of them?" Reply Yin Sheng while staring at his beloved Mother.


"Stop that..."Xie Qinling paused for a moment. "We cannot judge the character of a person by just one behavior. There are times when a person will vent all his emotions when he feels a disappointment."


"I know you are so interested in Yao He because he comes from outside the village." Xie Qinling held onto her son's shoulder.


"How did you know?" Yin Sheng looked at his mother with question marks.


"I've been your mother your whole life. What don't I know about you?" Xie Qinling pinched Yin Sheng's nose, which was followed by yelling Yin Sheng's vexation at feeling treated like a child.


"If you are curious about what life is like outside the village, you can ask Mom. I can tell you that."


"Have you ever been out of the village?"


"No... Just heard a lot of stories from your father..." Lies Xie Qinling.


"What was life like there?"


"Hmmm... Like..."


###


The night finally came to welcome, the mighty sun illuminated all day despite being replaced by the stars and moon. Yao He walked down the path to head for a house on the edge of the village.


Yep... The house was none other than Yin Sheng's house with his mother. Yao He's steps came to a halt at the doorstep of the house. He hesitated to knock on the door. But his current condition was very unlikely for him to go out of the village to the nearest city.


Thock... Thock...


Yao He ventured to knock on the door of the only house that would possibly accept and willingly help himself.


"Uncle Yao He..." Sapa Yin Sheng just opened the door. It looked as if Yin Sheng was so happy to see Yao He returning to his home.


"Ehm... This... A... I'm..."


"Come in... We're just going to dinner..."


"No need..." Reject Yao He... "May I stay in the back hut?" Yao He asked a little doubtfully.


"Of course Uncle... Uncle can wear that shack as you like. I'll drop you dinner for uncle." Reply Yin Sheng, while Xie Qinling who was inside the house only looked at Yao He sharply.


"Thank you Yin Sheng..." Yao He said as he stepped into the hut behind the house. "Yin Sheng..." Call Yao He once again while turning around.


"Yes Uncle?"


"I'm sorry for my behavior this afternoon... I'm getting emotional?"


Yin Sheng simply smiled in response to Yao He's apology. True said his mother, we can not judge a person with just one behavior.
