Chapter 210: Meeting an Enemy, Meng Yu’s Reluctance
“Crack!”
Taking a bite of a fresh wild fruit, Meng Yu’s eyes curved into a crescent moon.
“Little thief, this fruit is really sweet, I want to eat that one too.”
Holding half-eaten wild fruit in her left hand, she reached out for another kind of fruit in Chen Shisan’s hand with her right.
Facing such behavior, Chen Shisan’s face darkened instantly.
“Meng Yu, I’ve been carrying you for a month.”
“Under normal circumstances, your leg injury should have healed by now.”
“Are you planning to stay on my back for the rest of your life?”
Hearing this, the once lively Meng Yu immediately put on a weak appearance.
“What nonsense is this.”
“It takes a hundred days to recover from bone injuries, it’s only been a month, how could someone else’s injury be fully healed.”
Chen Shisan: “…”
“It takes a hundred days to recover from bone injuries, that’s what mortals say, but as a cultivator, your injury shouldn’t take so long to heal.”
“Moreover, after a month, has the seal not loosened at all?”
“Oh, elder’s seal, how could a small fry like me shake it.”
“I’ve tried for a month, there hasn’t been any progress.”
“I know you’ve worked hard, why don’t I teach you another sword technique as compensation?”
Facing Meng Yu’s offer of compensation, Chen Shisan fell silent for a moment, but ultimately chose to accept it.
In the past month, he had carried Meng Yu very far.
But for some reason, this woman kept refusing to walk on her own.
At first, he intended to forcefully remove her from his back, but she presented him with a set of exquisite sword techniques.
For such a deal, Chen Shisan naturally couldn’t refuse.
To get sword techniques just by carrying someone, where else could you find such a thing?
After advancing a bit further, Chen Shisan put down Meng Yu on his back.
“I’ll go find some firewood, call me if you encounter danger, try not to wander around.”
“Okay, I definitely won’t wander around.”
Meng Yu obediently nodded, while Chen Shisan turned to search for firewood.
Watching Chen Shisan’s back, Meng Yu rested her chin on her hand, her lips curled into a thick, unbreakable smile.
Because over the course of a month, Meng Yu found the young man in front of her increasingly endearing.
Though he possessed little and was stubborn to the point of d*ath, he always wanted to give her whatever he had.
The part of the meat that tasted the best, the biggest fruit…
Although he always made excuses when giving things, this stubborn manner was also what attracted her the most.
And for some reason, whenever she was by his side, she felt an inexplicable sense of security.
Even though his body was small and his strength weak, he always gave her the feeling that he could shield her from all dangers.
Just as she was thinking, Chen Shisan came back with some firewood.
He started a fire, processed the game they had caught, and quietly flipped the wooden stick in his hand. The two fell into a brief silence again.
“Little thief, do you have anything you want to do?”
Seeing Meng Yu start to “make conversation,” Chen Shisan said indifferently, “Help the master swing a sword.”
“What about after swinging that sword?”
“Getting stronger counts?”
“That can be considered, but it’s too vague. Do you have any specific goals?”
Facing this question, Chen Shisan thought seriously and said,
“Besides these two goals, I don’t have anything else I want to do right now.”
“And you? What do you want to do?”
Hearing this, Meng Yu raised her swan-like neck proudly.
“As a ‘world walker’ of Kongming Tian, I naturally want everyone in the world to know my name.”
“Greedily, I don’t aspire to be the strongest sword cultivator in the world, but my sword must be remembered by everyone.”
Hearing Meng Yu’s wish, Chen Shisan looked at her with a skeptical gaze.
“You’re a sword cultivator?”
“Hey! What’s that look for? Miss’s sword skills are rare in the world.”
“If not for my cultivation being sealed, you wouldn’t even qualify to be my sword attendant.”
“If you were…”
Halfway through her sentence, Meng Yu suddenly stopped, and Chen Shisan, who was roasting meat, also paused.
Because a figure was approaching from afar.
“Oh my!”
“This isn’t Miss Meng Yu of Kongming Tian? Why are you hanging out with an ant?”
Seeing the person, Chen Shisan and Meng Yu both stood up simultaneously.
This person was none other than Cang Hong, whom Chen Shisan had cut into a small world with one sword.
“You injured his foundation with that sword, it will take a month to fully recover.”
“Hold him off for twenty breaths, I have a way to repel him.”
As she spoke, Meng Yu closed her eyes and began to meditate silently, while Chen Shisan held his sword and faced Cang Hong.
Without unnecessary words, no false courtesy, Meng Yu directly chose to help Chen Shisan.
Looking at the far-off Meng Yu, who was meditating with her eyes closed, Cang Hong frowned and said, “Meng Yu, this matter has nothing to do with Kongming Tian, you should not interfere.”
However, facing Cang Hong’s threat, Meng Yu ignored him and silently prepared something.
“No matter what you say, once she makes a decision, she rarely changes it.”
“Furthermore, given your personality, killing me would make you act against her as well.”
“Because the Treasure Mouse is something you both desire.”
Hearing Chen Shisan’s words, a hint of disdain appeared on Cang Hong’s face.
“Boy, it seems your relationship is quite close.”
“A month apart, you actually hooked up with Kongming Tian’s ‘world walker,’ I didn’t expect you to be such an old hand in the flower field.”
“Very well, killing one is killing, killing two is also killing.”
“I’ll take you both, let you become a pair of doomed mandarin ducks.”
“Buzz!”
As the words fell, Cang Hong immediately swung his fist towards Chen Shisan.
At the same time, Cang Hong’s entire body emitted dazzling light.
“Boom!”
Chen Shisan swung his sword to block, then was pushed back more than a yard by the powerful impact.
“Drip!”
“Sizzle~”
A few raindrops fell from the sky, and the cold rain hitting the True Martial Sword instantly turned into steam.
Cang Hong, ‘world walker’ of the Huayang Cave Heaven.
Possessing a unique physique, Yan Yangti, and the extraordinary phenomenon of a three-legged golden crow in the Sea of Suffering realm, he practiced the ultimate technique of Huayang Cave Heaven, the Nine Sun Fist.
One punch could melt gold and turn jade.
Quickly flashing through Cang Hong’s information, Chen Shisan swung his sword forward again.
From the last move, he roughly gauged his situation.
His injuries hadn’t fully recovered yet, and Cang Hong currently had at most the strength of the Shore of the Other Side Realm.
“Ding ding ding!”
The dense sword rain was all blocked by Cang Hong’s fists.
With every swing of the sword, Chen Shisan would be scorched by the intense heat emanating from Cang Hong’s body.
“Boom!”
After five breaths, Chen Shisan was pushed back again by Cang Hong’s punch.
