My wound in head started to throb and I fell to sit in the ground all of a sudden.

And I heard a screech followed by a shout,



" Hey ! Are you okay, JingYi? "

I clamped my head then look at someone who just approached me,

" Luckily I can recognize you since the moon is very bright tonight."
He added,








" ... Jin Ling? "


He crouched then folded his arms having a sour face,

Is he not going to help me get up?

" We haven't seen for a long time. And you're very casual on calling my name. I think you know already that I am a sect leader. Now, call me ' Sect Leader'. "

Tssk. He's still the same Young Mistress... very demanding.

" Ain't you're also calling me ' JingYi' so casually? "

" That's because you're name's 'JingYi ' ofcourse I would call you like that!"
He retorted,

" And ain't you're name's ' Jin Ling'?
I would call you like that,  ofcourse."
I replied mockingly,

" Aahhgg! You're stubborn! "
He finally snapped.

I won.

He help me get up and we both nestled under the big tree. 

None of us are talking ...

It's rare since both of us are talkative.

Maybe he changed a bit and I had as well...

Until Jin Ling opened up,

" So where's my 'thank you' ?"

I reeled at him.

Where part should I say thanks?

" For what?"

" Aint GusuLan disciples held the highest pride in manners? Or are you forgetting already that I had saved you from that flying beast? "
He blatted annoyingly.

" Tsk. I didn't asked for your help. I would have managed to take down that beast even if you didnt appeared. " I retorted,

" Are you for real? I thought you're asking for death so you stoned in front of that flying beast. Luckily, I've been sighting for it for hours. "

" I was not asking for death that time, I had fire talismans in my hand that moment, I am just letting it get closer a little bit more."

" Hah! Your tactics were very reckless! What would you do if your talisman didn't work out?! You're deadmeat then!" Jin Ling mocked,

" That's possible but I trusted my things. " I deadpanned as his face suddenly gets serious,

" JingYi, even if you say that... How you react awhile, it is still very reckless. Would you like SiZhui to come home and see you as ghost already?"

" What? "

Jin Ling open his golden satchel and get something out then hand to me,


" What are these?? "

"Are you blind? Patches. Change it for your wound in the forehead, haven't you noticed? It started bleeding. "
He uttered.
