The Dragon Warrior Pair
DWP 174 - Four Other Bing
“Starting here I can see what appears in my memory..” Jing Yang leaned against the tree at the end of the Fire Village.
Xue Rong could see if Jing Yang was like harboring something alone, so she chose to ask “Junior Yang, what is wrong with you? After we traveled here, I felt your attitude change. It feels like you want to get away from this world.”.
Jing Yang's eyes widened at Xue Rong's words just now, “Senior Rong, what attracted you to me? Is it because of my innocence?”
The deg!
Xue Rong's heart skipped a beat looking at Jing Yang's cold eyes. The two ages were far apart, indeed Xue Rong liked Jing Yang's innocence and honesty, but before him was now the figure of Jing Yang whom he knew like nothing.
“I don't know what to express... If it wasn't for Master educating me, maybe I-” Jing Yang didn't continue her words as the regrets in her life piled up.
No one was aware of the heavy burden borne by him. All this time he always showed his innocent smile and was being fine. But deep down in his heart he wanted affection. He was nothing more than a weak little boy.
“Senior Rong, will you promise me the same as I promised to take you away from that place someday?” Jing Yang's cold gaze faded into a heartwarming, soul-warming gaze.
Xue Rong gracefully nodded gently, Jing Yang smiled as he looked at the increasingly night sky.
“I used to have a female figure who always scolded me when I did something silly and did something naughty. He was so awesome in my eyes. I always thought I wanted to return the favor for everything he had given me one day.” As Jing Yang began to tell a short story, Xue Rong's body suddenly shook and her chest felt tight because right now Jing Yang looked so fragile.
‘What does he mean is his late mother?’ Xue Rong guessed and saw Jing Yang's innocent smile.
“I see this you have a side like her, Senior Rong.” Jing Yang looked at Xue Rong for quite a while before smiling, “If one day I deviate from my path and lose my way, please temper me.”
“Junior A..” Xue Rong smiled and immediately hugged Jing Yang affectionately, “I will definitely scold you. You won't lose your way because you're a great man, Junior Yang.”
Then Xue Rong let go of her embrace and looked into Jing Yang's deep eyes, “My words you are just a weak little boy. It's fine that you look strong, but you can share this burden on your shoulders with me. You're not alone, Junior Yang.”
Jing Yang let out a long sigh then smiled warmly, “Senior Rong, thanks.”
After that Jing Yang went towards the direction of an old grandfather who approached him. Xue Rong caught up with him from behind.
“Savior, introduce him is Li Ho the Head of Fire Village who is famous for the Fire Lion punch.” Cao Ji proudly introduced the figure of Village Chief Li to Jing Yang.
“Stop, you made Village Chief Li look weak stupid.” Liang Fan whispered and snapped Cao Ji's head quite loudly, “Lagian, what do you mean by the Fire Lion's punch? Do you want to joke?”
“Hah?! Do you want to fight with me?!” Cao Ji looked at Liang Fan full of anger.
“Who is afraid?!” Liang Fan returned Cao Ji's gaze full of anger.
The Fire Village Chief called Li Ho immediately held onto both of the man's shoulders then said, “You two are blocking my path.”
Immediately Li Ho walked up to Jing Yang after breaking up a quarrel between Liang Fan and Cao Ji.
“Stop, Grandpa Li. I did it sincerely, after all we should have helped each other. So can you tell me what happened to you to the point that you were exposed to the Hell Scorpion Poison?” Jing Yang hoped to find interesting information from Li Ho.
Li Ho stroked his beard and looked at Jing Yang closely, then turned his gaze to look at Xue Rong.
‘Are they both a pair of sisters?’ Thought Li Ho. After all Jing Yang and Xue Rong had a face that showed both of them were from noble families.
“Could of course be young. But you heard the story from both of them, right?” Li Ho smiled wryly after saying so, before long he added, “This is all because of my weakness.”
“Instead of telling stories I'm more worried about four seriously injured men. More or less the same condition as me..” Li Ho looked so worried then he took Jing Yang and Xue Rong away towards the figure of the four men Li Ho was referring to.
Being among the men made Xue Rong uncomfortable, it was fortunate that there was Jing Yang otherwise Xue Rong would have chosen to leave this place as soon as possible.
Arriving at the place Li Ho was referring to, Jing Yang saw Bing Hen who was chatting warmly with the four men who were older than Bing Hen.
“Junior Hen, as I expected the people who attacked Fire Village were the same people as the one who destroyed the Northern Ice Mountain. They were demons eyeing the Fire God Scroll belonging to Village Chief Li.” The handsome-looking man who showed a worried expression spoke to Bing Hen.
“Brother Mu..” The other man looked at the handsome man in disbelief.
“It looks like the four of you are awake? Thank goodness you guys are okay.” Li Ho greeted the four of them and made them come to a realization.
“Head of Village Li.” The four men were simultaneously surprised to see Li Ho.
‘So they're the person Grandpa Li meant..’ Jing Yang watched the expressions of the four men closely, ‘Any.’
“Thank God you're okay, Village Chief Li. We are very worried about you.” A handsome man named Bing Mu approached Li Ho and saluted.
Then Bing Hen approached Jing Yang before introducing the four men wearing the same robes as him.
“The four of them are my seniors. The five of us are from the Bing Clan who survived the destruction of the Northern Ice Mountain.” Bing Hen started introducing the four men to Jing Yang and Xue Rong.
The handsome man who paid respect to Li Ho was named Bing Mu, then the man who had stared in disbelief at Bing Mu's words was Bing Jia. Then the two men who had not spoken a word were named Bing San and Bing Diwang.
“More, you said they were after the Fire God Scroll, how did they know this?” Li Ho asked.
Bing Mu explained that he fought against demons that had the ability to use fire. Most likely the demon had long known the Flame God Scroll and was eyeing it.
“I myself don't know where he knows the Fire God Scroll from. But I think sooner or later that group of demons will attack this place back.” Bing Mu replied, then his eyes were fixed on the beauty of the girl standing beside Jing Yang.
Bing Mu showed interest in Xue Rong, but he was not rash because after all he did not want to look so interested in Xue Rong's beauty.
Li Ho stroked his beard then looked at Jing Yang for quite a while before inviting them all to dinner together.
