Xue Yang was still disturbed at this lady's appearance on his cave. Its been weeks since their inside and although she haven't killed or done anything bad to the animal he was pertaining about, he still doesn't want this person here.
"All you did was stare at it, leave already!"- Xue Yang said to her with a frown. She didn't look at him as she throw a pouch towards his direction. He caught it with ease, suspiciously looking at her before opening the pouch.
"Candie- *cough* I-I mean, C-Candies?! Why the hell would you give me these things?! Its just for kids!"- Xue Yang initial reaction made Huatian raise her eyebrow at him before looking away. No matter what Xue Yang will do in the future, he cannot erase that impression on Huatian that- a notorious no-sect cultivator, a devil and a murderer- likes to eat sweets that's for kids.
Xue Yang ate the candy in the far distance, watching as Huatian finally decided to take action. Taking out her silver needles she jumped up and the head of the giant turtle on its head and neck on its acupuncture points. Xue Yang blinked as he watched the Turtle turns unconscious and on the surface of the water, He look at the shell of the animal and saw Huatian gracefully landing on the surface as her robe flutters around her form. Xue Yang suck on the candy on his mouth as he tasted the sweetness of the sugar and the sour flavor of the plum fruit.
"Don't disturb me or else I'll take your life"- Huatian warned him as she went inside the shell of the turtle. Xue Yang has a peculiar light in his eyes as he continue to stare.
A gust of rotten air welcomed Huatian inside the shell of the turtle, her face scrunched up as she walk further inside. She didn't pause to inspect the littered corpses or the skeletons covered in red. She went towards the inner most part of the turtle, and there she saw a large heavy sword stuck deep on the flesh. She didn't knew that it was the missing piece of the Yin Iron too. She didn't paid attention to it and crouched down to pluck the herb stuck on the sword. Her eyes show a new light as she stared at the wriggling plant trying to stick on her skin. She flick the plant on the certain of its stem, making it paralyzed and immobile. After stuffing it to her space, she hurriedly went out of the shell in a flash. Xue Yang was at the edge of the water when he saw the flash of the lady's figure out of the Animal's shell and stood next to him. He blinked before his face scrunched up.
"Eww! You smell so disgusting!"- Xue Yang turned away and covered half his face with his palm. Huatian glared at him before turning away and starting to walk out the cave.
Xue Yang durrowed his brows and look at her leaving back before running after her.
"Oi! You're just gonna leave like that? How dare you!"- Xue Yang shouted and catched up with her.
"Aren't you throwing me out earlier? Now that I'm leaving, you don't want me to leave, You-ah, Make up your mind,"- She said in a blunt tone. Xue Yang glared at her while following closely to her. Huatian was irritated at this and gave a cold side-long glance at him.
Before they could start climbing up, They both heard a bunch of footsteps from above- towards the entrance. Huatian and Xue Yang's eyes squinted before retreating to a spot, they weren't detected at all as a bunch of cultivators went down with ropes towards the waters where the turtle's head was submerged. Only its "large stone" like shell was above the waters. Huatian cannot clearly see their faces in a long distance, she didn't remember any of this people, Not Lan Gusu Sect's 2nd Young Master, not the Yunmeng Jiang Sect's Jiang Cheng by face or the person she held dear close to her heart- Wei Wuxian.
They fooled around near the waters. Huatian look at Xue Yang and he coincidentally look back at her. Her smirk suggested something that Xue Yang also percieved and smirked back. Commanding Xiao She to go to the turtle and take out the silver needles from it. They both watched in silence.
"Hey... Whose robe is this?"- Huatian blinked as she stared at the female cultivator in violet holding her robes. She turned to Xue Yang with a glare,
"You didn't take it?"- She asked angry, her quiet voice heavy. Xue Yang smirked,
"It's a girl's robe, How could I take it?"- He asked feigning innocence. Huatian rolled her eyes and arch a brow at him.
"A special robe, could make you invisible through naked eyes, still dare to say its just a female robe?"- Huatian asked haughtily.
"T-That-"- Lan Wangji slightly reacted, making Wei Wuxian look at him,
"Lan-Zhan, whose robe is that?"- He asked quietly, Lan Wangji composed himself and look back at him.
"Lianhua Jiejie.... last few weeks ago... in Gusu,"- He said and stared at him, Wei Wuxian furrowed his brows before nodding, seemingly not interested anymore. In his mind he was in doubt, why would he, of all people forget that person?
"You take back my robe"
"Don't want, you throw it away, now others have it, you want it back, make up your mind,"- Xue Yang throw her words back at her which earned another glare from her.
As they continue to bicker, they missed the event where Wei Wuxian threatened Wen Chao about their Sect's rules throwing the end of his own blade to his neck. They missed how everyone started fighting and how Wei Wuxian hostaged Wen Chao and stood on top of the large boulder on the waters. When they look back to them, The Turtle was already awake and their trying to fight all of them.
Huatian's eyes lingered to the male in black robe but she turn away and look at the escaping Wen clan, Huatian was itching to kill that "mistress" Wen Chao brought, How dare she try on her own robe and impress that dog through seduction?! That Black Phoenix Robe is hers!
"Xiao She, grow big! Take that robe back for this master!"- Huatian angrily ordered as Xiao She answered her back Yes and slithered up to the top.
"Heh~ So they can fight huh? Hehehe"- Huatian look back to Xue Yang before to the group of cultivators from different sects trapped in with them. The ropes they used to get down were cut down by Wen Sect and there's no escape route anywhere.
"What shall we do?"
