Travel In A Different World
Ch. 052. I'll Always Be With You

Previous episode ....

“Isn't this too quiet? Although only 2 people live, but is not this very unnatural?”

His partner squinted. Eyebrows twitching. Then, he immediately opened the door violently until the door was almost dislodged. He searched all over the house, but found no signs of life.

He kicked the table beside him in annoyance, “S*al! Do they know? Looks like they've escaped.”

From her voice it was the voice of a woman. Moreover, his body is small and also slender. Surely it was a woman.

“Then, what should we do?”

The woman narrowed her eyes with tightly clenched hands until her books turned white. “Of course find it. Quickly search anywhere! There's no way they've gone far!”

The two immediately searched in all directions and found the footprints. Yesterday it was raining and the ground was still a little muddled, so this must be the trail of the two people they were looking for.

“Mother, I'm no longer strong.”

Xin'er stopped her steps while holding onto her knees and stabilized her breathing. He was no longer strong enough to run any further. And again, what's running for? If only you knew, it might be a motivation to keep running.

His mother stroked the top of Xin'er's head while smiling bitterly. Honestly speaking, his legs also felt very tired after running quite a distance away. And again, it's pretty quiet here. No one can ask for help.

“My son, follow Mom.”

His mother pulled him somewhere. Xin'er just followed. They came to a cart filled with straw, not sure who had left the wagon. But the woman was very grateful to find him.

“Xin'er, get in the cart. Fast!”

Never did Xin'er see her mother as sweet as this. Although he did not know what was going on, he simply complied and went into a haystack.

The woman immediately took out one of the straws and covered Xin'er with it so as not to be seen. He also took something to make his rapids feel heavy so Xin'er couldn't get out.

Xin'er whines, “Mother, it's dark here. Mother where? I'm so scared,”

“Patience, son. You have to hold on. I'll always be with you,”

At least that was the last word he heard from his mother. He did not know how his mother was expressing at that moment. However, he complied and soon kept quiet.

For a long time he was silent. To take a breath he was very trying to be very smooth and not cause sound. His heart was racing fast.

Feeling awkward, Xin'er called her mother. “Mother?”

Even though his mother was there, the woman did not answer. He instead focused on 2 people who were not far from them so that they might not be able to hear his son calling.

“Xin'er,” whispered the woman.

His voice was too soft, carried away by the cold night wind. Xin'er couldn't hear it. The woman stared at the pus on the haystack where there was her son she was hiding inside.

The two assassins approached Mother Xin'er with swords ready to kill.

“Finally we found you, lady s*alan.”

The woman in the typical clothes of a hitman came to him. He deliberately lowered his mask so that Mother Xin'er could see his face and know who he was.

His partner was not far from him. However, at the request of the woman, he would not interfere and would just watch.

“Wah, it's been a long time since we met. After a long time, even we meet with an atmosphere like this.”

The woman smiled amiably, but Mother Xin'er knew that it was not a good thing. He put up the horses just in case the woman attacked.

“What's up, Ye Lian? Oh yeah, by the way where's your son? I also want to meet him. Must be big, huh?”

Mother Xin'er—Ye Lian, stared intently at the woman. He glanced at the straw wagon that was far away. He just wished this woman hadn't found her son and killed him.

The woman also took a quick glance at the straw wagon and smiled. I don't know what makes it so. It looked as if he knew that Xin'er was there. No, he can't know.

The woman was still with her annoying smile—touching that sword eye with a hand covered by gloves.

“Oh yes, have you heard? Said your husband was—”

Ye Lian instantly shouted—cut the woman's speech. “Do not dare you say it again!”

Xin'er faintly heard her mother's screaming voice. However, he could not see even though he wanted to because there was something stuck on it that made him unable to move the straw.

The woman pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth with her slender hands. Despite wearing gloves, her hands still look slender. Just imagine if his gloves were removed, it must be very slim!

Wait, why are you even talking about this? This is not in the scenario! Remember, you have to follow the scenario.

The woman now displays her grin a little. “Oh, I seem to have talked too much to you. How about we end it now?”

He pointed his sword at Ye Lian's neck. Now that sword eye had touched Ye Lian's white neck, it gave a slight scratch until fresh blood dripped from the scratch.

The woman suddenly pulled back her sword and stuck it on the ground. His hand rested on the base of the sword and tilted at Ye Lian. The woman looked a little crazy, she was smiling in this tense situation.

The woman was a little pouting. “You are not exciting. Though only want to play, but you even respond to it-that's it.”

Ye Lian clenched her hands tightly. Behind his clothes, he was gathering Qi to throw at this woman's face. Once it was large enough, he immediately threw it away as the woman was caught off guard.

The woman instantly made a shield as the qi almost hit her face. However, the moment he managed to overcome it, a small knife was thrown into his face. He did not have time to dodge and the small knife made a scratch on his cheek and made some strands of his hair cut off.

Now the little knife has been stuck in the trunk of the tree quite deep. Ye Lian purposely threw it when the woman made a shield. He knew that the woman would not be easily fooled with just a qi that was nothing.
