Chapter 32: Cliffhanger, anyone?
"Run run run!" Fang Lin dispelled the effects of the Mountain-Bashing Boar Essence. They immediately regained control of their bodies. Once they realized it, they made a run for it. They rushed towards the area away from the boars.
The leaader of the boars, who was busy in his missionary position, immediately noticed this abnormality. "Squuueee!" 5 male boars had no choice but to follow his orders and chase Fang Lin's group down. It was obvious from the boar's expression that they were really pissed for having their 'good time' interrupted by some humans.
"Squueee!!!"x5
Fang Lin's group started to get farther and farther away from the herd. But even with this, the disgruntled boars chasing them still did not stop.
Once they've ascertained that they were safely away from the herd, Fang Lin's group faced their pursuers.
"Now!" Venomshade let out a roar, and his body let out the aura at the Mid Mana Circulation Stage. His affinity was of course poison. But if it were not for his abilities as a poison brewer, his own poisonous mana would have killed him long ago already.
Venomshade waved his hands, and a multitude of vials were thrown into the air towards the boars. He then let out a stream of poison out of his fingers, and he let the poison hit the vials. This mixing produced a chemical reaction within the vial. The vials exploded, letting out dangerous-looking fumes of gases. If they have used this vials against the thousand-strong herd earlier, they will be easily trampled. But with just five, these vials were enough.
Once the 5 boars inhaled the fumes, they wobbled, and started to weaken. Tang Ya and Fang Lin took this as an opportunity to attack. With their efforts, they easily defeated the pursuers.
"Ha, ha, ha, so what do we do now?" Boner nervously asked.
"Well, this area seems safe already. We just need to take 1-hour turns watching the map for any incoming groups or beast. I will start the watch. As for now, all of you rest. I will wake up the next watcher." The group complied, becoming as still as stone after a few minutes. Fang Lin sighed and leaned against a boulder as a lookout.
He took a deep breath and then he let out a smile. He felt that as if he was back in the Mystical Forest. He smiled, remembering the times where all he just did was to feel the nature. Right now, he can feel the cool wind swooshing across his skin. The night sky never appeared to be as bright as it is now. The chirping of the cicadas and the faint snoring of his companions served as a good sound for his ears.
He continued watching out for threats when he felt a hand land on his shoulder. He looked back and saw his Master Wang Hao looking grimly towards Fang Lin.
"I hate to break it to you, but I think there is a traitor in this group right now."
"..."
The next day broke out, and Fang Lin is still reeling from the impact of what Wang Hao told him.
"That can't be true right?"
While Fang Lin was struggling on accepting Wang Hao's statement, Fang Yu was having her own struggles too.
Fang Yu was currently facing Tang Lin and Li Daozi, who looked miffed upon seeing Fang Yu. How could they not? Their child suddenly disappeared in the middle of the midnight and before they knew it, Li'er had been flying across the air with Fang Yu in tow. They could have intervened at that point, but they feared that Tang Li might do something reckless in front of her parents.So they just sucked it up and let the child do as she pleased.
While Tang Li's parents looked at Fang Yu with their wooden expressions, Tang Li restlessly flitted across them.
"Ma ish angwy?" Tang Li looked sad upon seeing that her mother did not give Tang Li her usual dazzling smile.
"Daddy ish angwy too?" But when Li Daozi heard that his daughter called him Daddy and not Baldy, he cackled uproariously while saying "Haha of course I'm not angry Li'er. You are daddy's favorite girl!"
"You shut up!" Tang Lin looked like she was about to kill Li Daozi as she said that.
"Yes, yes my dear....." Tang Lin sighed as she looked towards Tang Li. "Li'er I'm not angry to you ok? I was just worried that you might get hurt! If you really want to play like that, be sure to tell us next tim ok? As for now, you cannot see your Sis for one day."
"Kay mommy....." Tang Li sadly hovered towards her bed as she said "Bye Sis.."
Fang Yu was about to say goodbye to Tang Li when Tang Lin spoke up.
"As for you, WHY DID YOU NOT DO ANYTHING! Do you know that if it were not for us, the other sect elders might have discovered my daughter flying across the air! If you just did something, she might not have been put in great risk!"
Fang Yu just bowed her head down, not daring to say anything. She knew she was in the wrong, so she did not dare to complain.
After venting all her emotions out, Tang Lin's countenance appeared to be better. "Now that you've learned your lesson, be sure to be prudent at all times. Got it?"
"Yes Madam!" Fang Yu bowed for one more time then she went to her Master's room.
"Do you really have to shout to her? You hurt her a little bit." Li Daozi looked upon Fang Yu's fading sillhoutte. "You could have toned it down right?"
"Huh? Do you remember that it was you who left the window open? If not for that, Li'er would have not gotten out! You punk, trying to be noble here? How about I turn you into Baby Baldy! I'm sure Li'er would love her new playmate!"
"Aieeeee please stop my love!"
When Fang Yu went inside Xiao Ya's room, she saw her Master smiling slyly towards her.
"You must be pretty sad now right? Do you want to get some comfort?" She licked her lips and said "GO FINISH YOUR DAMNED TRAINING! You thought I'm gonna spout some comforting words? We ain't having that here! Now move your ass and get working! Get working!"
Fang Yu grumbled, clearly not happy with her situation right now. She started her basic elemental manipulation training when she felt someone was feeling her body up. She looked back, and what she saw was the one she dreaded. It was the Immortal Path Sect Head, Tang Luo!
This shameless man smiled lewdly towards Fang Yu. "How do you like my massage? It's definitely better than Xiao Ya's right?"
"Get off her you bastard!" Xiao Ya strode out, walking pompously towards Tang Luo. She looked aggressively towards him as she said "It seems like you forgot your place. Or do you want to relive that experience again?" Upon hearing this, Tang Luo visibly shuddered.
"What do you mean by that experience master?"
Xiao Ya smiled menacingly and said "Once upon a time, there was a man who saw the most beautiful woman in his life. Upon seeing her, he immediately poured all of his efforts to woo her. After years of nonstop courtship, he finally succeeded on getting her approval. But on the day of their marriage he discovered that her d**k is even bigger than his!!!"
Xiao Ya fell into the ground, clutching her sides while laughing hysterically. "The one he married was actually a man! Hahahaha! Of course that person also laughed, saying that he did all of that as a joke. Tang Luo was of course devastated."
"So what happened to the trap?"
"That trap? In the end he married a legitimate girl, and he had two beautiful daughters." Xiao Ya looked at the dazed Tang Luo then back to Fang Yu. "The one in front of you is one of those beautiful daughters!"
"I see." Even though Fang Yu felt disgusted with Tang Luo, she still felt pity for him. Not only he got fooled by a well-endowed female-looking guy, he still has to see his daughter everyday. That daughter, who was Xiao Ya, was of course happy to torment Tang Luo about this fact.
"Arrggghhh!!!!" Tang Luo had no choice but to escape the onslaught of Xiao Ya's jeers.
As Tang Luo escaped, Fang Yu looked towards Xiao Ya doubtfully.
"Master, are you a trap too?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Of course not! I'm a real female! Here, you can even try to touch it." She brought Fang Yu's hand to her lower regions but before something R-18 could happen, Fang Yu suddenly spat out large amounts of blood out of her mouth and she lost her consciousness.
"Yu'er!"
