Mysterious Shender
⁇ : Toward The Maolong District

"What are you doing? Stand up!"

Somehow Ying Yue didn't really like it if anyone did 'kou tou' to her. He feels unusual. Especially with their degrees that are both human. The Princess felt a little unworthy of getting a 'kou tou' despite her title being the Great Princess.

Ruofan.

"Then, please help her to show Qingqing the way. Little Brother, his head will break if not immediately find a friend who has accompanied him since childhood."

Xi Wei touched the tip of Ying Yue's nose to tease her. He even got a fierce look from the Princess in return. The sapodilla-skinned youth could only chuckle at Ying Yue's adorable manner.

Xi Wei walked ahead of Ying Yue and Ruofan. Of course to get out of that place. Only he knew how to get out of the place he had gotten.

In fact, that Challenge Arena was the place that Xi Wei had discovered. It has been there for a long time. Only, nothing was working when he found it. The young man just rebuilt the place.

When he got outside, Xi Wei wanted to test Ruofan's speed. As an Assassin, according to the mature brown-skinned youth, Ruofan was definitely quick. He wanted to know where Ruofan's speed was, whether he could still catch it or not.

"Wei Ruofan, show me the speed limit you have as an Assassin."

Ruofan didn't know what Xi Wei wanted to know, but he kept the young man's orders. He moves at the maximum speed he has.

Roufan was shocked as Xi Wei's hand stretched out and was right in front of his neck. He thought it was a reminder.

"Oh? Excuse me. Not to scare yourself. But, I want to know what speed limit you have. It turns out you're just as slow as this Little Sister."

The Little Sister in question who heard him was immediately unhappy. Ying Yue punched Xi Wei on the shoulder making the young man grimace.

"Don't be angry, Little Brother. In reality, you guys are really slow."

Ying Yue glared at Xi Wei who was laughing loudly. He also realized that his movements were very slow when compared to Xi Wei who could move not until one blink of an eye.

"I'll train you two to move very fast and soundlessly tomorrow. Today, it seems like night is almost here."

Xi Wei looked towards the hourglass hanging through the rope tied around his waist. The middle of the day is past. Judging from the direction of motion of the sun, it may have been almost four in the afternoon.

"Where are you hiding Qingqing? Can today save him?"

Ying Yue was very enthusiastic when it came to Qingqing. It was undeniable that she and Qingqing were already like twin brothers.

When looking towards Ruofan, Ying Yue was slightly startled. His face turned into a real face.

"That guy named Wei Qin has the expertise to change someone's face. No wonder you were shocked when you saw Wei Ruofan's real face."

Xi Wei looked uninterested in Ruofan's real face.

"What Mr. Swordsman said. Regarding Qingqing, she was stationed in the Maolong District which was at the end of Yongheng."

"This place is in central Chizi. To reach that place takes a day. But, if with the speed that Wei Ruofan has, we can get to the time of night."

"Huh?"

Ying Yue and Ruofan gaped at Xi Wei's words.

"You mean that we're going to Maolong District today?"

"of course! Are you waiting for your Qingqing to die at the hands of Xiao Zixuan, Little Sister?"

"Of course not!"

"Then I don't have to worry. We'll just go to Maolong District."

"As for this Great Princess of ours, there is no need to worry. I'll take him there."

Xi Wei covered her head with a cloak hood as usual, then raised Ying Yue's body.

"I wonder ... does Master Swordsman not feel heavy with that much luggage?"

"Absolutely not. This Little Sister is so light."

Ruofan was astonished to hear Xi Wei. Even the strongest in the Wanwei Party, Wei Caozai, would not be able to do so. The Assassin Girl could only gulp.

"I know Maolong District. It's just that I need you as a guide when I get to that district. I can't leave you either. Maybe you'll betray. So, please help her, Brother Ruofan."

Ruofan shook her head. Saving his own life just then was difficult, where might he dare to run away from Xi Wei and Ying Yue. His head could be broken from its place.

"Why do you like bullying people so much?!"

Ying Yue pinched Xi Wei's arm. Yet it was as if the mature-skinned youth felt nothing. Xi Wei did not grimace in pain. His balance in lifting the body of the Princess did not change.

"Later you fall. I won't be responsible for that."

Ying Yue puffed her cheeks in annoyance with Xi Wei.

'Why would anyone be able to act so annoyingly?'

Xi Wei could only chuckle because of Ying Yue's expression.

"Alright .. take me to my Qingqing. She must have gotten a very painful treatment because there was no me by her side."

The three of them began their journey towards Maolong District. During the occasional trip Xi Wei or Ying Yue would ask about Ruofan's personal life. The Assassin Girl would answer and throw back a question afterwards.

Until night comes ....

"That's it, Maolong District. Huh .. huh .. huf ...."

Ruofan inhaled a voracious breath. Only then did he shorten the one-day journey to one that was not even two-nine days. They did not even rest during the journey.

"Just shortened the journey one day .. but, our little brother Ruofan is already exhausted. Not a real Assassin."

Ruofan glared at Xi Wei in annoyance. Ying Yue could not do anything because from the beginning of the journey to the gate of Maolong District she was carried by Xi Wei.

"You didn't even carry anything. It could be that you are exhausted while the person carrying this much 'stuff' feels ordinary."

Ying Yue and Ruofan protested against Xi Wei simultaneously.

"I'm not an item!"

"You're not human!"

Xi Wei could only laugh out loud. He was confused about himself too. I don't know since when he turned into a 'monster' without being noticed by himself.

"After this, we'll head to the hardest part to break through. Big brother Caozai and Xiong were directly handling Qingqing. Their subordinates are not fooling around."

"It's good then."

Xi Wei grinned meaningfully.
