The Hunted Hunter
Chapter 6. Resuming Travel
After undergoing training for 1 year Ma Guang had already reached the level 5 swordsman basic stage by gathering 25 inner power circles.
While the achievement of Xia Jiao was to have 40 inner power circles and already be able to make all kinds of early level pills and have mastered medicinal herbs from Su Tian.
Since Ma Guang had already reached the tier 5 elementary stage swordsman and Xia Jiao had already gathered 40 inner power circles, so Su Tian taught the science of lightening the body to the two of them.
But for Ma Guang, Su Tian taught him again the empty-handed and middle-tier sword styles.
For half a year they practiced and had already mastered every single thing Su Tian had taught.
Finally Su Tian called Ma Guang and Xia Jiao.
Su Tian then gave a pill to Ma Guang and to absorb the essence contained in the pill.
At night, Ma Guang swallowed the pill given by Su Tian and immediately meditated to absorb and channel his essence throughout his body and dantian.
After the early morning, the inner power that Ma Guang possessed had already reached 45 circles, thus making himself already on par with a peak ninth level primary stage swordsman just like Su Tian had.
Su Tian could not break through the bottleneck he was in.
That's because he does not know the technique or the way that must be done in order to break through to the next warrior stage, namely the Expert Swordsman stage.
It was very difficult for him to achieve, because he was a free swordsman, so that no one would give any guidance to Him.
Originally Su Tian had a clan, his family was a noble family, but members from the sect of 1000 Poisons came to lotus his clan, which was paid for by one of the clans in the capital of the Yan kingdom, so Su Tian fled to the territory of the Qi kingdom.
After seeing the energy achievement within Ma Guang who had already reached 45 circles, Su Tian's heart became happy.
"It's time for you two to continue the original purpose of your journey."
Said Su Tian with a face that described sadness.
"My ability is only that limited to training the two of you, and I can't be selfish to hold back the talent that's within you both."
Su Tian continued.
Indeed Su Tian felt sad to part with the two students, but because of the talent possessed by the two, as well as the age of the two of them who were only 14 years old, it was because of the talent they had, there is a great chance for both of them to be able to reach the top position in the martial world.
That was what allowed Su Tian to let them part from him, and reach for the initial desire of the two of them, to become a strong and formidable warrior.
"Guang'er.after you two travel later, teacher hopes that you can always take good care of Xia Jiao and protect her, and you must always be careful with everyone who will meet you in the future."
Su Tian reminded.
" Our life must do a lot of good for others, but we must also be able to assess in advance the person we will help, whether we are only used, or not, or should we help them."
The words of advice Su Tian gave to the two teenagers.
"Good teacher...!!!."
Replied the two of them simultaneously to Su Tian.
"Don't often get involved in a fight, if you can avoid it, avoid it as much as possible, because your ability is nothing in this martial world."
Su Tian continued to continue reminding as well as advising his two students before they made their journey.
"Good teacher, students will always remember every message that the teacher says."
Answer Ma Guang.
After finishing giving so much advice to his two disciples, Su Tian then gave a book that looked worn out to Ma Guang.
"Get this, one day you can train the skill set in this book."
Said Su Tian while giving a book to Ma Guang.
The book given by Su Tian was a skill that was unknown to its level.
Su Tian himself had not been able to train it, because the moves required a great amount of inner strength, he said, and if used by people who have a little inner energy will be fatal to the dantian of the user.
That was why Su Tian had not mastered the moves in the book.
After finishing preparing all the necessary necessities on their journey, they finally paid a farewell to Su Tian and went on a trip.
They both walked south.
The direction of the road was to the capital of the Shou Empire, but the distance that would be traveled so that it could arrive at the Imperial capital was still around 750 kilo meters away, it must be taken for 15 days on foot for a warrior.
The relationship between Ma Guang and Xia Jiao looks so close, it looks like a couple, but because of the age of the two of them are still easy and also have never known the word Love, so they both thought it was a normal thing.
The two of them often joke while walking, it seems to make them both will not feel tired even though traveling all day.
After a long day they traveled, they finally could see a village of residents.
When just entering the village, the welcome from every resident in the village seemed to not want to accept others to enter their village.
The two of them circled their left and right eyes to look for whenever there was an inn in the village.
Finally they found an inn that looked simple.
" Let's Master and Miss...Is there anything I can help you with...???."
Said the waiter.
"We need one room....
is there still room left???."
Ma Guang replied in response to the servant's welcome.
"It just so happens that our room is left one that is still empty, please you pay first at the cashier."
Said the waiter while pointing the two of them towards the cashier.
"All right then."
Ma Guang said as he walked towards the cashier.
Without realizing it, the existence of the two teenagers had become the center of attention of some people sitting in that place.
"Sir, how much does it cost...???."
Xia Jiao asked towards the person who was at the cashier's place.
"Two silver coins cost." Answer the man at the cashier's.
Xia Jiao directly gave the money mentioned by the man.
"All right, come with me."
Said the servant while leading the two of them.
They both followed the waiter from behind.
After arriving at the door of the room, the servant then invited the two of them to enter the room.
"Miss Xia...!!! do you smell like poison in this room...???
Ma Guang asked Xia Jiao.
"It seems like what you said has a point as well."
Xia Jiao replied who could also smell the same thing.
"We have to be more careful again, is there an antidote to poison....???."
Ask Ma Guang.
"This is the antidote to the poison that the teacher gave us, let's drink this antidote first...!!!."
Xia Jiao said as she handed over the thing that was in her hands.
Ma Guang immediately received the antidote for the poison given by Xia Jiao and swallowed it straight away.
Elsewhere, the two men that had been met by Ma Guan and Xia Jiao were none other than the waiter and the man at the cashier talking to each other about something.
"Do your work well and correctly, lest there be any mistake."
Said the man who acted as the cashier.
"Good sir."
Replied the servant man while looking down and cupped his hands.
"The woman will be a very special gift to the master of the Hand of Satan."
Said the cashier man with a smile full of cunning.
"And as for the man, he will be made a slave to sell."
The cashier man also continued the words - he said.
The two men stared at each other with thin smiles filled with cunning.
"Sir, I'll go check on them."
Say a servant man to the man at the cashier.
"If you can be sure that they're both asleep, you're in action."
Cashier's man's orders.
"Good sir."
Said the servant man as he walked towards Ma Guang and Xia Jiao's room.
