'This girl... Isn't she behaving more and more strangely?'
'Yeah. It's almost as if she thinks Jian Shen belongs to her.'
Having spent a lot of ti being linked with Jian Shen, the two swords had already figured out a way to communicate with each other without him listening to their words.
Due to this, it wasn't hard for them to discuss about irong without letting Jian Shen know about it.
'Should we do sothing?'
'I don't know. I spent my entire life focusing only on cultivation, how could I know what to do in this situation?'
'I don't know what to do either.'
After talking to each other for quite a while, the two swords who rembered how Jian Shen felt when they interfered and didn't reveal the truth about Yu Yan being pregnant, decided to not interfere and do anything this ti.
They'll just let ti reveal what was going to happen and just watch it from the side.
...
The ancient ruins went far deeper than Jian Shen expected and as the first group ever to explore it they kept on finding more and more valuable items.
Though there was no guarantee that the group found all of the most important or special treasures hidden inside the ruins, they did find quite a lot of weapons, treasures, and. cultivation resources.
Due to this, once the group explored deep inside the ruins and a few of them had died in the process, everyone unanimously agreed to leave the place before anything else happened to any of them.
Having offsetted irong's bad luck, even though her entire bad luck wasn't offset Jian Shen who was walking beside her no longer triggered as many traps as they did before.
Therefore, even when a few traps were triggered Jian Shen easily escaped them all the while taking irong with him.
While this made it a lot easier for Jian Shen, the sa couldn't be said about those following him while thinking that they had triggered all the traps like before.
Like this, a few of them had fallen prey to the deadly traps before realizing that they needed to be careful and couldn't just walk without the slightest care in the world.
Still, even then quite a few of them had died due to which they themselves had decided to end this exploration and leave before they died and made all their effort until now useless.
...
Walking out of the ruins excluding Jian Shen and irong were just five others which made the group look depressing to the eyes of those who watched the original one enter it.
Leaving the ruins, Jian Shen who was feeling the warm embrace of the real sun after quite so ti couldn't help stretch his body with a pleasant smile on his face.
Unfortunately, this happy mont was interrupted with irong suddenly hugging him from the back and saying, "We're finally outside that dark place, honey."
It wasn't as if Jian Shen hated irong's touch but he was just feeling a little weird around her. Therefore, all he could do was chuckle awkwardly and say, "Yeah."
"What is it, honey? Are you not feeling well?"
"I'm fine."
Jumping out of irong's embrace because for so reason he felt as if her hands were creeping farther and deeper than just the embrace, Jian Shen was forced to shake his head and think that maybe he was just thinking too much because he couldn't find any signs of weirdness on irong's face.
"Huh? Is there sothing on my face?"
Having asked this question many tis in the past few weeks since the day the two of them excited the Trial of Sacrifice, even though she received no as an answer irong was starting to think that there was definitely sothing on her face.
Therefore, she quickly left Jian Shen to find a mirror or sothing that could show her reflection to check her appearance.
Seeing this Jian Shen turned around to go back to the tent he had stayed in before entering the ruins and rest for a while.
This was when he suddenly felt a breeze of chilling cold air touch the back of his neck.
"Jian Shen, there's....."
Turning around in an instant with his eyes completely alert, Jian Shen's both hands had one sword in them. The only thing missing was a target for him to attack.
Frowning from not finding anything, Jian Shen felt that maybe he was thinking too much but refused to let go of his alertness.
"What did you say, Qingyu?"
"Nothing."
"Huh?"
Feeling that sothing definitely happened, Jian Shen could only further frown and look around in hopes of spotting anything out of place. All he did notice however was that irong who was happily skipping on her feet away from him had disappeared.
Still, Jian Shen didn't feel worried about her because after he offset her bad luck he doubted that it would be easy for anyone to defeat soone as strong as her and kidnap her.
Especially not without making any sound or commotion. That was how strong she was.
Therefore, Jian Shen despite feeling that he was definitely missing sothing turned around and left.
...
"Who are you?"
While holding soone by the neck, irong who was looking like before without showing the slightest emotion on her face pulled out a dagger from her spatial storage.
"Ugh.. I... "
Squeezing the woman's neck tighter, irong suddenly smiled and said, "You must be one of those greedy bitches who is trying to steal my honey."
Trying her best to shake her head, the woman who was caught found herself unable to even breathe due to how tightly irong's fingers were squeezing her neck.
"Humph! Jian Shen belongs to and only . I won't let anyone take him away from ."
Saying those words irong smiled widely and twisted the neck of the woman she had caught lurking around Jian Shen.
"Fufufufufufu... I wonder if honey is thinking about ."
Leaving while skipping on her feet as of what she did wasn't anything special, irong went back to find Jian Shen.
