“Ahem, Little Jiuli, I was so tense before that I forgot.
No wonder you’re so familiar with the Ziyang Sect.
It turns out I was too stupid and totally forgot to use my Divine Sense…” Ke Xuechen caught up with Mo Jiuli’s pace, awkwardly explaining.
Mo Jiuli gave him a forgiving glance…
With the corner of her lips curling slightly, she kept the secret to herself that Yun Xia was also in her hand.
So, she could only be vague!
Mo Jiuli’s slight smile made Ke Xuechen lose his mind again, almost falling with one foot in the air!
When Ke Xuechen raised his head, he saw Mo Jiuli looking at him with a “Can you even walk?” expression, making him feel like he was falling apart!
He was nearly frustrated to tears by his own stupidity…
“Are you alright?” Mo Jiuli looked at Ke Xuechen with a puzzled expression.
“Is something wrong?
Can’t you even walk?”
“Ahem.
I’m fine, really, I’m all good, very good, extremely good!
Little Jiuli, let’s hurry…” To cover up his embarrassment, Ke Xuechen kept talking as he walked, even going ahead of Mo Jiuli.
He didn’t notice a meter-long, half-meter-wide bridge under his feet.
Under the bridge was a canal with water that seemed to have a fishy smell, possibly a waste-water channel…
And so, with Mo Jiuli looking puzzled, Ke Xuechen stepped into thin air…
“Plop!” He fell directly into the canal, but luckily the water was shallow, and no waves splashed up!
Mo Jiuli took a couple of steps forward and looked down at Ke Xuechen lying in the water.
“Young Master Ke, are you really okay?
Why don’t you just give me a portrait of Young Master Yue, and then you can go back!” Mo Jiuli said, sounding somewhat concerned.
“I — Little Jiuli, I’m really fine!
It was just an accident…” Ke Xuechen said with a bitter face.
Even he thought something was wrong with himself because he was too stupid!
He wished he could just burrow into the water and never come out again.
This was so freaking embarrassing…
“Ahem, come on up if you’re fine.
The water down there is dirty!” Mo Jiuli kindly suggested, looking at Ke Xuechen’s pale face.
Things only got worse when she mentioned it; Ke Xuechen’s face turned beet red!
How could he have become so boundlessly stupid tonight…
When Ke Xuechen finally clambered out of the water and disappeared into the shadows to change his clothes, the two of them resumed their journey…
Guardian An silently watched Ke Xuechen and mentally lit three sticks of incense for him!
If the intelligence of this Young Master of the Hidden Clan was just so, it seemed that he had nothing to worry about…
At first, he was worried that this guy might have a crush on his master because of her smile, but now it seemed there was no need for concern…
With such intelligence, even if he did have feelings for his master, with his master’s cunning, he could be easily crushed a hundred and eighty times without batting an eye…
One hidden and two visible, the three of them took many twists and turns until they finally arrived at a huge Iron Gate almost an hour later.
They could clearly sense many people behind the gate…
“Master, you won’t be discovered if you fly in!” Yun Xia’s voice echoed in Mo Jiuli’s mind.
“Alright, got it!” Mo Jiuli nodded, then pointed to the Stone peaks on either side of the Iron Gate and said, “Up we go!”
“We won’t be discovered?” Ke Xuechen asked in astonishment.
