CH 21

After Yan Hui recovered her magic, she used the Propelling Sword Technique and rapidly left the small village in Tong Luo Mountain.

However, her body hadn't completely recovered. She grew tired and picked a spot by the brook in Tong Luo Mountain to rest.

Although she said all those words to Tian Yao, after thinking about it, her heart was still uneasy. What if that dragon demon didn't think it through and really did go to confront Zhenren Su Ying......

If Zhenren Su Ying was really like what Tian Yao said, then wasn't that the same as gouging out her heart and offering the heart protection scale on a silver platter?!

Yan Hui swallowed and rubbed her cold chest.

Perhaps she should go back and talk it over with that dragon demon......

Yan Hui thought about it for awhile, but she couldn't make up her mind. The sky slowly grew dark as she thought. Yan Hui easily snagged two fish from the stream. She gathered firewood and started a small fire by the stream. As she cooked the fish, she continued to mull it over.

However, right when she finished cooking them, a person suddenly sat down right next to her.

Without a single word or slightest bit of hesitation, the person took one of Yan Hui's cooked fish and started to eat.

Yan Hui froze, then turned her head: "How did you follow me here?!"

The person couldn't be anyone else besides Tian Yao.

It was clear Tian Yao was hungry. He didn't acknowledge Yan Hui's words and continued to eat for awhile. It wasn't until Yan Hui reached out to take back the fish did Tian Yao react and dodge to the side. He shot her a glance and said: "I walked."

It was only then did Yan Hui remember that she still hadn't undone the Tracking Curse he placed on her.

However once she thought about it a second time, Yan Hui froze again.

Although she didn't use the Propelling Sword Technique for long nor fast, she was still flying......This guy could actually walk and catch up to her......What persistence.......Yan Hui massaged the space between her eyebrows: "I won't help you. Didn't I make that clear?"

"You did." Tian Yao continued to slowly eat as he spoke, "However......" He finally looked at Yan Hui. The firelight bathed part of his face in light, but the other part remained in the darkness. His cold tone slipped up and revealed a trace of self-mockery: "Aside from following you, where else would I go?"

His words were roguish and wicked, but when Yan Hui saw Tian Yao's expression, she became speechless.
