With Jian Chen's small legs, he ran at a very high speed while carrying Xiao Yu on his shoulders. Of course if he were to use the qi on the soles of his feet, something like that would not be impossible at all. The bandits who attacked the village where Xiao Yu came from did not really understand the use of such simple qi.
This was what allowed Jian Chen to escape the bandits who were chasing him. After running for half an hour, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu arrived at a small hill.
High trees were seen in that place. Jian Chen who was carrying Xiao Yu on his shoulder immediately threw her to the ground. Meanwhile, he immediately sat and leaned against a tree because he was very tired.
His gaze was slightly dark as his qi was almost drained out just to escape. If the previous escape was only himself, perhaps he would not be this tired, when escaping, he would have to bring Xiao Yu who was always rebelling on his shoulders.
“Why did you leave grandpa?” Xiao Yu shouted towards Jian Chen with tears flowing down his cheeks.
Thick veins appeared on Jian Chen's forehead. He was also actually a little regretful for not being able to help Xiao Zo because he respected the old man. He could only fulfill the old man's last request of taking Xiao Yu away.
Being extremely irritated, Jian Chen forced himself to stand up and slapped Xiao Yu.
Plaque!
Xiao Yu who was originally crying loudly and kept shouting towards Jian Chen instantly fell silent because only this time there was someone slapping him.
“Listen boy! If you stay there, you'll be buried with the villagers. And worst of all, they'll take you and sell you to a slave trader! Didn't you see that Xiao Zo's grandfather sacrificed his life so that the bandit leader wouldn't come after you? Then what do you want? Do you want to die just like them? If that's what you want, I can grant it!” jian Chen said coldly as he pulled the Azure Sword from its scabbard.
Xiao Yu who heard that shook violently. He knew that his grandfather had Jian Chen take him away and his grandfather held the bandits. As well, Jian Chen's threat made him a little scared as well. He had seen Jian Chen ferociously behead some bandits, and it was certain that Jian Chen would easily finish him off as well.
“I.. i.” Xiao Yu stepped back while biting his lips firmly. Her tears did not stop flowing because she had lost all her family.
After that, Xiao Yu knelt down and cried even harder which made Jian Chen grow even more silent.
Jian Chen had no more intention of threatening Xiao Yu. He perfectly understood that for a child of Xiao Yu's age, something like that would be very difficult to accept. Luckily he had lived for 17 years on earth and had a more mature mind.
Therefore, Jian Chen simply sat back down then leaned against the tree trunk letting Xiao Yu continue to cry.
“This world is really cruel.” Inner Jian Chen sighed deeply. He was increasingly determined to become stronger quickly so that he would not be oppressed by stronger cultivators.
After an hour, Xiao Yu who continued to cry fainted in a place that made Jian Chen not know what to say.
“Cih! Do I have to be the caretaker of the boy?” Jian Chen complained and did not realize that he was currently still a child.
However, out of respect for old man Xiao Zo, he took Xiao Yu away.
A few hours after walking, Xiao Yu who had fainted came to a realization and then remembered everything that had happened, when he again wanted to cry, Jian Chen immediately threw him down.
“Stop crying! If you want revenge, then practice being strong!” Jian Chen could hardly bear to face the boy named Xiao Yu shouting loudly until the veins on his neck were visible.
Hearing Jian Chen's words, Xiao Yu who was about to cry immediately stopped. His eyes were still moist from holding back to cry which made Jian Chen a little surprised.
“You understand, don't you? The reason why the people in your village were slaughtered was because they were weak! Although they are innocent, this is the law of the jungle in this world! The weak will still be preyed upon!” jian Chen.
And at this moment, the determination to become stronger was clearly visible in Xiao Yu's eyes.
Seeing that, Jian Chen finally let out a long sigh as it was very difficult to convince a brat.
“Alright, since you have understood and I have fulfilled your grandfather's last hope, then we will part here.” Jian Chen said and immediately turned around to leave.
Xiao Yu who was determined was instantly shriveled while looking at his surroundings. The place was very quiet, as a 12-year-old boy, of course he did not have the great guts like Jian Chen who was a once-adult person.
“Tu-tungu! Don't leave me!” Xiao Yu hurriedly chased after Jian Chen.
Jian Chen let out a long sigh once more knowing that Xiao Yu would definitely chase after him. He glanced at Xiao Yu who was now next to him.
“Where were these two Daggers before?” Inner Jian Chen. It was old that Xiao Yu's two Long White Daggers were Birth Weapons, but it was completely invisible.
“Xiao Yu, if you want to come with me, then you must follow my words. And there's no word to refute because if you're stubborn, we might be in danger because we don't know what it looks like to cultivators out there!” jian Chen said coldly.
Xiao Yu who heard that only clenched his hands tightly and nodded small. However he swore inwardly when he was already very strong, he would kick the butt of someone named Jian Chen.
Looking at Xiao Yu who nodded despite looking very reluctant, Jian Chen was satisfied.
“Then, where are those two Daggers of yours that you used before?” Jian Chen asked.
Xiao Yu stared at Jian Chen with a watchful gaze as he always got a warning from his grandfather that he could not just tell about his abilities to others.
“Fucking boy! I saw everything there! Do you think I don't know what you think through your face?” Jian Chen really wanted to kick Xiao Yu this time.
“You are still a boy!” Xiao Yu replied in an angry tone as well.
“This child.” Jian Chen felt that he would go crazy if he continued to argue with Xiao Yu.
“Jawab only!” Jian Chen spoke again in an impatient tone.
“Here!”
In both of Xiao Yu's small hands, two White Daggers reappeared which made Jian Chen even more wonder how to hide them.
“Where did you save it?” Jian Chen asked curiously.
“This is the uniqueness of my Birth Weapon. As a dual user of the Birth Weapon and Birth Form, I can store it inside my body like my Birth Form!” replied Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu's reply left Jian Chen speechless for a thousand words because it was unexpected that someone like Xiao Yu was actually given such incredible luck.
