The Guardians: The Swordsman of the Moon

The task of Master to Zhang Rouruan.

(*I remind Mo Xian it's a girl huh)

Happy reading*~

Mo Xian and Bai Yue fled far enough out of the border of Bai Lian city.

Mo Xian used the science of lightening himself to jump from tree to tree with vigor, he wanted to immediately return to where his teacher was and see for himself that those people had been freed. However, suddenly his hand was pulled and he had to stop.

Mo Xian looked at Bai Yue in surprise. "Why did you stop me, we have to get back to the teacher."

Bai Yue stared at Mo Xian for quite a while, the hand she used to pull Mo Xian away was reluctant to be let go. Mo Xian who was wrapped in white girl clothes like the women who were in the brothel looked very graceful, the face that was always cheerful all the time looked even sweeter now.

Bai Yue did not at all think that she would be like this, fascinated at a young man who was younger and more talented than her just because this child was wearing female clothes.

Is there something wrong with him or his brain?

Swallowing his own saliva, Bai Yue was still unwilling to let go of Mo Xian's hand from his grasp, her hands were so slender and gentle as well as warm.

Stuttering withstanding the heat on his face Bai Yue said, "Will you still dress like this?"

Mo Xian blinked once before lifting his skirt to see he was still wearing the appearance of a girl.

Mo Xian laughed, showing his sweet dimples. "I've forgotten about this, then I'll change my clothes soon, make sure you stay awake and don't peek."

Mo Xian said so before entering into the bushes, taking out his clothes from his dimension ring Mo Xian began to change clothes without hesitation despite him being in the wild.

Perhaps Mo Xian could be considered careless and trust his friends too much because previously Wu Jiao Xing would be watching around the moment Mo Xian changed clothes. Wu Jiao Xing had never peeked at her and Mo Xian thought the people of this world did indeed uphold the privacy of others. However, this was Bai Yue whom he had told to keep watch and not peek.

Bai Yue felt suspicious at Mo Xian's words.

Why did she tell me not to peek, was she embarrassed when she changed clothes?

Curiosity made him subconsciously glance at Mo Xian who was changing clothes. The white shoulders doused in sunlight looked perfectly flawless, and his black hair was like a waterfall that flowed freely from the top of his head to his back. However, there was something that made him worry.

"Why is he wearing bandages on his body?"

Concerned, Bai Yue immediately put her feet up and pulled Mo Xian's hand, making her startled and yelling.

Both looked. Mo Xian was so embarrassed that he was scared. He was bare-chested in front of a fifteen-year-old young man, this was a mistake! It's mistake! So embarassing!

Bai Yue did not notice how Mo Xian's face was already like a boiled crab, extremely red!

Bai Yue only noticed the white bandage wrapped around Mo Xian's chest looking quite thick was also quite tight. However, it looked extremely clean and there were no signs of traces of blood seeping on the white cloth.

"What are you doing!" Mo Xian pushed Bai Yue over and covered her chest with a shirt she had not had time to wear.

Bai Yue retreated backwards due to the push, but she advanced again, her hands moving towards Mo Xian's chest, making Mo Xian wary.

"What do you want to do, why did you come here, I said don't peek!"

Bai Yue came to a halt with Mo Xian's series of questions. He then noticed Mo Xian's face was extremely red and became increasingly worried.

"Do you have a fever?"

Mo Xian did not understand the intent of Bai Yue's question, but he replied firmly. "No!"

"Have you been hurt before, what happened at the brothel?"

Mo Xian maintained the distance between himself and Bai Yue, forbidding the young man from approaching him.

"No, I'm not hurt."

Bai Yue stared in disbelief. "Then why are you bandaged, where are you injured, on your back or chest, is that okay?"

Mo Xian blinked and gulped his saliva, he then lowered his head to look at the bandage wrapped around his chest to hide his property. However, he immediately understood, but remained embarrassed before replying.

Bai Yue looked at her uncomfortable demeanor and said, "What is it still hurts, I have a special medicine from the Magic Snow Dew plains that can heal wounds quickly and will not leave a mark."

Mo Xian quickly refused. "No, thank you. It's fine, my father has given me medicine and it's fine, you don't have to worry."

Mo Xian took pains to put on his clothes and tried to calm down, his identity was nowhere to be found and Bai Yue simply misunderstood.

After he finished putting on his clothes awkwardly, Mo Xian cleared his throat and said, "We should hurry back to the teacher."

With that he jumped away, escaping hiding his embarrassment. This will be a lesson for him so that he is more careful and should not be too relaxed.

Meanwhile, Bai Yue who had been left immediately followed Mo Xian towards the village.

Arriving at the village, Bao Yu did not give them a chance to rest. The old man looked very hasty when he said that they should get to the Bamboo Forest college as soon as possible. So they continued their journey with the science of lightening the body and leaving their horses in the village, leaving the horses free to seek their own lives.

Bao Yu led the way, along the way the old man did not say anything and Mo Xian could not help but ask Wu Jiao Xing.

"Is the teacher angry?"

Wu Jiao Xing shook his head. "No, I don't know" he replied.

"Teachers seem to be very burdened with those spells." Zhang Rouruan came along to speak as they leaped in the air.

"Personally, the teacher studied the spell paper we found in the villagers' house, comparing it to the spell you found in the Night Flower village and also the spell that was behind the mask."

Mo Xian furrowed his brows, so his teacher had found a spell behind the mask, but he kept asking. "The spell behind the mask?"

Zhang Rourun nodded despite being focused on his journey. "Teachers examine the masks and bones of our enemies. I saw the teacher furrowing his brows for a long time before collecting those masks."

"Then, what did the teacher do?"

"Teachers just compare it and do nothing. After that he decided that we should get to the Bamboo Forest college as soon as possible."

Mo Xian did not ask any more, he stared at his back and his master's robe fluttered in the wind. I don't know what Mo Xian was thinking.

———————

Bao Yu seemed to really want to quickly get to the Bamboo Forest college so that she did not allow her student to sleep, he even gave a little time off to drink tea and eat before going back on his way.

As their journey grew further, many villages had already been passed and reached the village where Zhang Rouruan lived. Mo Xian thought his teacher would personally drive Zhang Rouruan to his front door and meet Zhang Rouruan's parents. However, the old man only escorted him to the village gate.

"Xiao Rouruan you come back, we will continue our journey to the Bamboo Forest college without you."

Zhang Rouran's eyes that had been glowing with pleasure were now widened. "Teacher, the teacher doesn't want to meet this student's parents and rest here?"

Bao Yu shook his head. "No, Xiao Rouruan. This matter must be resolved immediately."

"Then the disciple will go with the Master."

Bao Yu shook his head again. "It's also unnecessary, Xiao Rouran you should stay in the village and do the task I'll give you."

Zhang Rouran wanted to urge his teacher so that he could come with them. However, Bao Yu vehemently refused his request, the old man then took out a box from the dimensional ring and handed it to Zhang Rouran.

"Wait here until I give the order through the guardian beast. Take care of yourself."

Bao Yu rubbed Zhang Rouruan's head before leaving with his four disciples.

"Teacher, my friends be careful that this matter is quickly resolved!"

Zhang Rouran shouted, but no one returned his words and only saw their figure slowly disappear.

Zhang Rouran then rubbed Bao Yu's gift box and tried to open it, but could not.

"So it's sealed, it looks like I should indeed wait for the teacher's order."
