The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 59 - Prince Princess Kaili
Although it was still morning, Xin Fai had already woken up. He sat cross-legged on the mattress while using his profound strength to recover the wound on his shoulder, at least the pain caused from the wound was somewhat reduced after a while.
With enough rest his body condition became better, do not forget Xin Fai ate the cake delivered by the servants to his room. Right now he has to restore his stamina as much as possible.
One thing that bothered him from the night, Xin Fai was not at all used to sleeping in a luxurious room with shades of white like this, making him uncomfortable when sleeping in a foreign place belonging to the Lian family because he thought, he was not comfortable, sleeping with the ground and roofed the sky just makes it more free. Because Xin Fai herself had been used to sleeping in the wild while leaving Peiyu Village.
Lian Sheng also did not let Xin Fai return to the inn considering that last night Xin Fai had bleeding on his shoulder due to fighting. Xin Fai was forced to wait to be able to return to the inn until Lian Sheng allowed it.
The security around the Lian residence became very tight, overnight the servants checked one by one in anticipation of the same thing happening again. After making sure his residence was safe, the situation in his residence could be as calm as before.
Lian Sheng himself did not let a single person disturb Xin Fai who was asleep in his room. Even though the person is from his own family members.
Towards the new morning the door of the room was knocked slowly, after which Lian Sheng appeared there with his best smile.
"Again, Fai'er. What about your wound?" his question wanted to ensure Xin Fai's condition. To ensure the child's comfort, Lian Sheng only came alone without being escorted by anyone.
Xin Fai held her shoulders slowly, for a moment her brows furrowed as she did not find a single scratch on her shoulder.
"It healed... It seemed," Xin Fai replied softly, she was still checking her shoulder and found no trace of any incision there.
'Is this all related to teacher Fu Shi's bat gem?' Xin Fai's mind pensively pensively for a moment, Lian Sheng approached her while trying to examine the wound. Xin Fai started to sweat coldly, she had absolutely no answer if Lian Sheng asked that.
"Well, he's healing faster than I thought. Did you take all the healing pills I gave you?" Said Lian Sheng then.
Xin Fai immediately recalled the items Lian Sheng had given her last night, despite not knowing about the efficacy of the plant and the pills in it, Xin Fai believed it was useful to restore wounds and increase strength.
"Ah, yes... Maybe thanks to all those pills." He smiled awkwardly, in fact he did not touch Lian Sheng's gift from last night at all.
Although having to lie Xin Fai had no other choice, than she had to be showered question after question later.
Afterwards Lian Sheng says that the assassin who kidnapped his son has been captured in a lifeless state, Xin Fai just recalled that the cause of death of the woman came from the poison of the Five Eyes Centipede that he was now hiding inside his robe.
If they were to raise questions about the woman's death, Xin Fai would inevitably have to explain where he got the Five Eyes Centipede's poison from.
Xin Fai actually did not want to open herself too much to the Lian family, especially if they knew the deadly poison was in her hands of course the Lian Family would be made wary.
"Alright then, if your body is completely healthy you can go see my family for a while. There's something they want to talk to you about."
Nodding his head, Xin rushed down from the bed. Lian Sheng had already walked out of the room making him more free to move.
A small glass bottle he took out of his pocket, Xin Fai exhaled heavily.
"If this poison is what always makes me win in battle, then after this runs out I certainly can't rely on this cheap trick to win easily..."
The more he used the poison, the more Xin Fai had no more supplies ahead of him. The remaining poison was now only a quarter of the previous one, and if the Five Eyes Centipede poison was depleted then Xin Fai would have to be ready to fight completely relying on the sword.
Honestly Xin Fai wanted to practice fighting as well as learn the style of the book in his hands, but it was very difficult to do considering that he had to keep moving to Zhu City. His own fighting ability he had gained after fighting many enemies that were much stronger than him, although his strength had increased yet Xin Fai felt that it was not enough to deal with the more precarious situation ahead of him.
Unwilling to make his head even more dizzy, Xin Fai immediately put on the clothes provided and immediately headed towards the hall of the Lian family residence.
There his presence was greeted with joy, most of them amazed because of Xin Fai's actions last night some of them even started to give him nicknames. Like Princess Prince Kaili, that nickname embarrassed Xin Fai.
Dozens of members of Lian's extended family thanked her and promised to be the first to come when Xin Fai needed help.
Lian Sheng himself had already considered Xin Fai as a member of his family even though the child did not acknowledge him.
"Ah, if my daughter Kaili would have a companion like you..." Lian Sheng was querying, his eyeballs were so hopeful of looking at Xin Fai. That man would naturally not let go of Xin Fai so easily. She did everything she could to have Xin Fai become part of the Lian family.
Xin Fai scratched his head stiffly, he did not know what to respond to while the people around him laughed looking at his face. Xin Fai was embarrassed.
As Xin Fai enjoyed the good food served, at the inn Lang could only snort in annoyance.
"Where's my food?!"
Lang swore with his tail bulging around him, he ruined the room his employer had rented. The scratches adorn the walls of the room with its growing growl.
While Wu Ang and the workers at the inn chose to get out of there when they realized there was a demon rampaging.
