Born to Disappear

Chapter 35

"Ling'er, aren't you being too heartless. You ignored me after using me, sweet enough to throw away." With a nosy smile on Yuan Qing's lips complained. Although Hualing who was walking in front acted as if he had not heard, some people who heard the remark could not help but pause for a moment.

A beautiful young girl walked in the market crowd and a handsome young man chased after her to hold her accountable, not really a familiar sight especially in a mortal city.

"That lady is so beautiful, toying with some young men is understandable."

"How can that be understood, a woman who plays men is not disgusting?"

"I don't think this is the first man he's played with!"

"Darling, this guy is so handsome!"

Whispers were heard from all around, Hualing just turned the bored eyeball without stopping his steps. As if what everyone was talking about was not him. Leaving behind Yuan Qing who stopped his steps amidst the crowd, a murderous gaze floated on every person who made a sound. A powerful spiritual energy swept through the gossipers, knocking them down in a single strike.

"Does anyone still want to talk?" ask him with lightning kills the uncovered. Seeing the audience was like seeing a dead person, the soft-spoken 'no' answer sounded simple.

Before turning away, from the corner of the shadow-covered building, a scout caught sight. The corner of Yuan Qing's lips lifted on one side, displaying an understatemently geeky smile.

"Damn! That young man was so scary!" one of the cultivators mixed with the crowd commented. He stuck out his neck, seeing the object in question now tail the same person again.

"This man is right. When she saw me earlier, I felt like I was being stared at by a poisonous snake. So scary!" One of the spectators who commented earlier responded.

Meanwhile, the person in question did not care at all. He was still trailing behind Hualing like a huge obedient tail. It will run fast if Hualing runs faster, will slow down if Hualing slows down and will stop if needed.

"Ling'er I was wrong, don't ignore me again okay? It's been four days since that day." As if unable to stand the silence any longer, Yuan Qing withdrew Hualing's hand. Make the second stop the step. Shamelessly he spoke with a sulking tone and drooping eyebrows.

"You still have a face to bring it up?" it was not getting the attention he expected, but rather a cold, freezing gaze.

"It was my fault, it was entirely my fault for not understanding Ling'er's feelings. Since we've already done that, of course our relationship is more intimate. That's not what I need to ask." Yuan Qing replied straightforwardly, as if there was no shame in the dictionary of his life. Even the flushed face of the young girl was enough to raise her happiness.

"Not shameless!" Hualing rebuked and tried to let go of that tight grip. How could he still hold fast that Yuan Qing was the incarnation of his master? How could the personality of the incarnation be so different from the original existence?

"Ling'er, I was wrong! I won't talk about it anymore!" his words sounded as if he was relented, but the look on his face said otherwise.

Yuan Qing wrapped his arm around Hualing's shoulder. In a low voice he whispered, "When it feels like a dream, why don't we do it again tonight?" whispered without shame. And a footwork in the whole heart became the answer.

Yuan Qing chuckled then walked faster, spelling out Hualing's unhurried footsteps. "It was unexpected that we would return to the northern continent so soon." The temptations were stopped, not wanting Hualing to be embarrassed.

"Your eternal Highness Shui Xing formed a tomb in the northern continent, the western forest of Hua city Northern Qi country. It was the end of the eternal war. Although it managed to survive it also did not have much strength to move so far away. He also used his own tomb as a central point of direction. Looking from the topography on the map, then the location of the ruins should be in the border forest between the northern Qi state and the southern Qi."

"Ling'er's right. As soon as we get out of this city, we'll enter the forest at our destination. But don't you feel thirsty?" Yuan Qing had just asked, but the one in question had already stepped into the not-so-crowded teahouse.

Hualing shook his head helplessly, unable to guess Yuan Qing's hidden thoughts. With a calm pace he followed Yuan Qing, choosing a table that was inconspicuous but could see the entire tavern.

"There are two possibilities. The first, before the ruins disappeared the Heaven sect had obtained an immortal heart. Second, the Sky sect had covered up the matter of the ninth heaven ruins of the outside world." Yuan Qing replied unhurriedly while from the corner of his eyes he noticed the arrival of a cultivator with an ordinary appearance.

"However, the biggest possibility is the second one. Because the standing of the Sky sect was several thousand years after the ninth heaven collapsed" Yuan Qing continued, still with a corner of his eye paying attention to the comers' movements.

Yuan Qing's forehead shriveled for a moment before stretching back. The newcomer walked quickly and hit the tea waiter before rushing up to the second floor. A dark smile rang on Yuan Qing's lips.

"What's with that smile?" Hualing asked with one eyebrow raised.

"You'll know soon enough" he replied indifferently.

"I'm sorry for the long wait, both customers please order." a tea shop waitress approached their table, putting one order after another neatly without any intention to leave immediately.

"Did the two customers come to this small town as well to investigate the ruins of the ninth heaven?" The waiter of the tea shop said.

"Interesting news, can you tell me more?" yuan Qing asked while he placed the middle-tier spirit stone near the tavern servant.

"Of course it doesn't matter!" the shopkeeper answered enthusiastically. This time he caught a big fish.

"The past ten years have circulated rumors among cultivators that the ruins of the ninth heaven were in the border forests of the northern Qi and southern Qi countries. Although most consider it to be nonsense, there are still many who try their luck to check. But instead of getting lucky, all those who entered the territory that one person meant were no longer visible."

"Isn't this region within the sphere of power of the Sky sect?" the entire northern land was under the Sky sect as the most dominant power, so there was no way the news of the wind would not reach their ears.

"Some Sky sect disciples had come checking, but found nothing in the region."

Hearing that, Hualing and Yuan Qing looked at each other. It seems they have to make sure directly.

"After that nothing happened?" Hualing was about to sip tea to wet his throat, but Yuan Qing's light grip on the shoulder immediately dispelled the intention. Without hurry to put the cup that is still full.

"After that some curious cultivators tried to find out, and they then disappeared. The Sky Sect again sent disciples, but as it had happened, they found nothing." The tea waiter whispered in a lower voice.

"So at this moment if there was someone who disappeared in the territory, all just considered that person unlucky." this sentence did not come from the tavern servant but rather Yuan Qing.

"That's right! So no matter how much both customers want to know, undo that intention. Don't go there!"

"We understand, thank you for reminding." Hualing said with a faint smile. From the storage ring he took out a piece of middle-tier spirit stone, stuffing it in the hands of the tavern maid.

The shopkeeper thanked enthusiastically, his narrowed eyes formed a curved line and then left in a good mood.

"Why don't I drink tea?" Hualing asked softly, making sure their conversation didn't sound to anyone.

"In tea there is a poison that is harmful to the devil and spiritual spirit. We don't know your true identity so it's best to be on guard."
