55 One Month in Mount Ashur 5

"But no, it was just a soul devourer. It wasn't me who killed them. But you know what? The first time I actually killed someone, was to protect my people. I don't kill innocent people like the rest, Lan Bao. I protect them."

Chen Ming Yu's expressionless face crack a little. A painful expression shows in her face. Tears wanting to fall down from her eyes. She lift her head to looked above for the tears not to fall.

The Knight Wolves and Yueyue are outside on Chen Ming Yu's tent to check up on her and accidentally heard what she said.

"I put a wall to distance myself to people. But when I met all of you. I know for a fact that that wall were breaking. I realised it was not bad to be with people."

Lan Bao's mouth open and close. She wanted to speak but no words came out.

"This is a curse at first for me, but in the past few days, I treated this as a blessing in disguise. I will wait for that man to teach me how to used this ability."

"Your eye...can see the soul devourer that hasn't still taking a form right? Right now, can you see those black figures with us?" There's fear in Lan Bao's heart. If they can't see them. Then, they wouldn't know how they died in the future.

"No. Nothing's here." Chen Ming Yu reverts back to her cold demeanour. The aura around here turns heavy as she spoke coldly.

"Are you going to keep eavesdropping? You already heard everything."

Yueyue was stunned. They did not made a sound but still she knows they were here listening. They didn't even breath for a minute just to listen and not alert her.

"I will return cultivating." Chen Ming Yu said and close her eyes again. Lan Bao quietly leaves and cultivate inside her tent. The others return to their training far away enough so that they can't disturb their cultivation.

Meanwhile, after giving orders to his men, Xiu Min handsomely sneezed and frown.

"Who's talking about me?" He cluelessly asked himself. Chun Lou who just entered his room find Xiu Min in a dazed.

He was stunned.

He never thought that they would be a day that he will saw his devilishly handsome friend who had he swore to be his brother for the rest of their lives to be like this.

It feels like his mind is in nowhere!

"Min. Aren't you going back to your little wife?" He asked to knock him on his dazed state.

"I will go back to her. But not today, I need to recuperate more. And what I mean is, I need to recuperate fast to see her." Xiu Min answered after returning to his senses.

"Never thought I would hear this from your lips. I never saw you paid any attention to the opposite sex."

"I like her, of course I would pay any attention to her."

Chun Lou was surprised to his friends honesty. He was aloof and never like to talk long. But ever since he laid his eyes on Chen Ming Yu, if they start talking about her he would talk nonstop. It was unlikely of his character.

Chun Luo had witnessed how this man ignored every women around him. Even breaking their hearts mercilessly.

He sighed.

Xiu Min would never let go a person if he had already taken a fancy of someone.

What shocking to Chun Lou was, he even declared to the girl's friend that he was her husband shamelessly!

"Chun Lou, if I become weaker please protect her. "

"My dear friend...you won't. You're the strongest person I had ever known."

Chun Lou didn't expect that Xiu Min would spoke like this. And when he saw him gave a bitter smile. He knows...that it has already worsen.

"If I am unable to protect her...I want you to take my place..."

"As you wish." This is the only answer Chun Lou can give. With a heavy heart he leaves his place.

********

Under the tutelage of Yueyue and the other demons, Chen Ming Yu and the other Knight Wolves advance and had gain experiences and foundation on their martial arts.

Lan Bao, Dei Min, Jun Xi, Feng Bai and Yi Gu and the members of Knight Wolves never expected that they would advance one rank in their cultivation level.

Lan Bao is already a Silver Spirit now, while the other four are now Purple Spirits.

Leader Ya Mi was obviously happy to see the result. For only a month, he witness that these children are getting stronger. They never disappoint him.

In a few days, they will be returning back to the academy for report and demonstration.

Ya MI's eyes darkens. If he remembers, after the demonstration, that man will definitely choose some members of the guild and teach them. But, after two months...those members will find missing. Some are dead. With some bite marks of an unknown creatures. And others have some black markings on their body...

They had been investigating, unfortunately, nothing was found.
