Chapter 9 The Villain Who Appeared Too Soon
Since his brother woke up, he has paid a lot of attention to him. His brother has given him things he never had before, and he also wants to repay his brother.
He had seen the jade pendant before. His brother often wore it around his waist. Maybe the jade pendant was also very important to his brother? So he had to find the jade pendant and bring it to his brother!
Secretly cheering himself up, Xie Nan had been hiking for three days. The only thing that surprised him was that there was no danger outside as the other disciples of the sect said. At least for him, everything was going smoothly.
If you are thirsty on the road, you will find fruits or water sources; if you are hungry, you will encounter herbivores or bird nests; when you take a rest, you will see a comfortable and safe cave entrance.
The simple-minded Xie Nan just felt that he was extremely lucky. He was carrying a small bag and holding a rabbit in his arms.
He met the rabbit on his first day out, but he didn't eat it. He ate the dry food he brought with him. He didn't touch any of the small animals he met along the way. He let them all go. He only brought the rabbit with him because he liked it because it looked cute. He didn't feel so lonely on the road because he had the little rabbit to keep him company.
"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, do you think I can find my brother's jade pendant?"
The snow-white little rabbit nestled obediently in his arms, and it was unclear whether it heard what he said.
Xie Nan was a little disappointed. He remembered that other disciples had discussed spiritual beasts that could speak, and he thought that the little rabbit in his arms could also speak. Unfortunately, it couldn't. Apart from being too well-behaved, it was no different from an ordinary rabbit.
What Xie Nan, who had little knowledge of cultivating immortals, didn't know was that only high-level spirit beasts that were able to transform or were about to transform could speak.
While walking, Xie Nan did not forget to look for the whereabouts of the jade pendant. He had already inquired before coming here, and the route he took to rescue his brother was this road, so maybe the jade pendant would fall along the way.
He still remembered the appearance of the jade pendant, which was a translucent green jade pendant with a black tassel hanging on it. As for what pattern was on it, he had no idea and could only search based on the image of the jade pendant in his mind.
Holding the little rabbit, Xie Nan once again parted the grass on one side. However, this time, he saw an egg, which was shaking slightly from side to side, as if something was about to break out of the shell.
Xie Nan got curious and moved closer, waiting with bated breath for it to break out of its shell.
After waiting for a short while, the top of the eggshell was broken, and two small bean-sized eyeballs met Xie Nan's clear eyes.
One second, two seconds...
“Snake aaaaaa——!”
Xie Nan finally reacted and screamed as she stepped back. She stepped on a small stone and her foot slipped. Her hands loosened and the rabbit in her arms jumped out, and she herself fell into the water.
“Waaaaaaah! Help!”
Xie Nan, who couldn't swim, kept struggling in the water, splashing water everywhere, but he couldn't catch anything and gulped down several mouthfuls of river water.
My body was sinking, my entire head was submerged in water and I couldn't breathe. The feeling of suffocation attacked me from all directions, and only one arm was still raised above the water with great difficulty.
Is he drowning?
This was Xie Nan’s last thought before he suffocated.
Meanwhile on the other side.
In a hurry, Xie Buyou forgot that there was a restriction somewhere along the way and he couldn't fly with the sword, so he fell straight down from the sky.
“Aaaaaaa——!!!”
The feeling of weightlessness from falling from a high altitude made Xie Buyou's mind go blank. He seemed to have lost all his means and fell down screaming.
Just when he thought he was going to fall to his death, a pair of strong hands caught him and his screams stopped abruptly.
The soul returned to its place. Xie did not worry about the difficulty of raising his head, and looked into the other person's golden and dazzling eyes, as bright as the sun.
Xie Buyou stared at the other person in a daze. Just as he was about to say something, a long sword fell from the sky, brushed past his hair and stabbed into the ground.
Xie Buyou was so frightened that his soul separated again and he fainted.
Save the worried boy: "..."
I don't know how much time had passed, but when Xie Buyou woke up from his coma, it was already evening.
The fire crackled, and the burning temperature dispelled the surrounding cold.
The aroma wafted from the delicious grilled fish on the simple grill made of branches over the fire, and Xie Buyou, who hadn't rested for the whole day, was immediately tempted.
The young man in red who was leisurely turning the grilled fish in his hand by the fire noticed Xie Buyou's movements at the first moment, but he did not say a word, and his eyes did not move away from the grilled fish in his hand.
The firelight hit his finely carved face. His expression, which should have been unruly, was now much softer. His golden eyes reflected the firelight, and the person walking towards him in the firelight had a smile hidden in his eyes, like a cheetah waiting for its prey to take the bait.
"Sao Nian, you look familiar to me, can you tell me your name?"
Xie Buyou asked the other party directly and even sat next to him like a familiar person, looking at him with the most friendly expression.
"Eat fish?"
However, the young man in black did not directly answer Xie Buyou's question. Instead, he handed him a delicious grilled fish.
Xie Buyou swallowed his saliva. It was true that he wanted to eat grilled fish, but what he wanted to know most now was the name of the boy in front of him.
He looked at the other person's appearance and felt that he seemed to have seen him somewhere, but he couldn't remember where, so he could only ask in the simplest way.
As for the grilled fish in the boy's hand, Xie Buyu silently took it and took a bite. He felt that the boy in front of him would not hurt him, but he still said stubbornly, "This is the first time we meet, right? We are strangers anyway, and you just gave me the grilled fish?"
As he spoke, Xie Buyu took another bite.
The young man in black just smiled and said, "I'm not a stranger, you just don't know me."
Xie Buyu ate the grilled fish with gusto. Although he had been fasting for a long time, he couldn't change his eating habits from his previous life in a short time. Of course, he didn't want to change.
The main reason why the immortal world and the human world are separated is because of spiritual energy. Unlike the dense spiritual energy in the immortal world, the spiritual energy in the human world is either sparse or non-existent. The grilled fish in his hand is a product of the immortal world, so there is nothing special about it even if he eats it.
"What's your name?" he asked him.
"Ye Feiyu."
With a "pop", the half-eaten grilled fish in his hand fell to the ground. Xie Buyou raised his head stiffly and looked at the young man in black, who gave him a friendly smile.
Villain ahh ...
Xie Buyou's soul was screaming, shouting, and roaring! The villain who was elusive in the first half, where people were killed or bloody, how far has it progressed? He saw the villain appear! ?
