Waking up in the morning, the first thing Xian Chen saw was a sleeping Yu Bin, holding his hand tightly. His heart started to beat rapidly and, fearing that he would wake Yu Bin up, he took his hand back and tried his best to relax.
"Do I have heart problems now? " he thought.
" What happened to your heart? " Yu Bin jumped out of sleep.
She heard Xian Chen, who expressed his thoughts without realizing it.
"Do you want me dead? I'm just asking idiotic princess. Why are you yelling early in the morning?"
"Shut up and tell me what's wrong with your heart, did you say you had heart problems?"
"When did I say that?"
"right now ?"
"...."
"Don't look at me like that, Xian Chen, and don't tell me you're okay because I'll never believe you again."
" You ... did you take care of my wounds?" Xian Chen asked fatigued. Maybe they are behaving like a cat and a mouse at their usual time and maybe Yu Bin looks like a spoiled princess but when he needed a shoulder to cry she was there crying for him. Tonight when his life was at risk she took care of him.
"I..." Yu Bin didn't know what to answer.
"Thanks ."
"Don't thank me, I did it because I don't want to die with you." She answered seriously.
"Even so, thank you." Xian Chen said. He knew… Even if her first thought could be her own life, in the end, she chose to save his life because she cares.
"Let's rest today .... ok Xian Chen" Yu Bin said looking into his eyes, even if he didn't say anything she knew he needed rest.
"I need to train."
"Stop talking nonsense, because of the pain I felt last night I'm too tired to even move. and I was awake all night because of you."
" I'm Sorry...."
"Don't apologize, just let me rest."
She was not saying that for her though, she was extremely worried for Xian Chen. She kept wondering last night till she fell asleep, but how did he get hurt? Why didn't she show him fighting? Did he save her? Lots of thoughts passed through her mind. At least this is what she can do to make him stay in a place and get well.
"Can we go to the garden, please?'
"Xian Chen, I need rest. really..."
"I promise I won't move around, I just need to see how Longwei feels. Last night was not ok."
"Oh, ok, we can go if you promise you won't move around."
"I promise."
Xian Chen and Yu Bin got dressed and went out into the garden, the air felt so clean there. No dust, no bad smell. Everything felt so fresh. Xian Chen and Yu Bin sat down under a tree, he took the book and called Longwei. Just like last night, Longwei was still a baby dragon.
"Master, maybe because you were hurt. Do you think the corpses had poison in them?"
"But it's a training camp, how could it be? They will not put poison in a training camp. " Xian Chen said, confused.
"Xian Chen, are you okay? What happened? Should we go inside to rest? You don't look too good."
"I'm fine Yu Bin, don't worry, I'm stronger than you think."
"Don't say you're fine anymore, these words make me worry."
"Master, you should look at your wounds, if they turned purple, it means you were poisoned. But then the worst part is that we don't know who tried to kill who. One of you three is in great danger ..."
"I know ..." Xian Chen said worriedly.
"Xian Chen ?!"
"Yes, Yu Bin ?"
"From what you both talk…what I want to say… Xian Chen…are you poisoned? It's this why I couldn't heal you last night?" Yu Bin asked worriedly. *That could be a reason* she thought, looking at Xian Chen concerned.
" Don't worry Yu Bin, as I said, that was a training camp. No one can fool around.
"Still…"
"Don't worry Yu Bin, it's just a wound. It's just happening to heal harder, that's all" Xian Chen said, holding her face between his hands.
"Can I sleep on your shoulder? I'm really tired."
"Of course, sleep, I'll wake you up later."
" Thanks. Yu Bin said with a tender smile."
Falling asleep on Xian Chen's shoulder, Yu Bin's head continued to fall, so he turned her over and let her sit with her head on his lap, then he fell asleep too. Looking at her, he felt a warm feeling running through his body. "This woman is beautiful inside and out," he thought before falling asleep relaxed … From the time he was tied up with Yu Bin, he found out that he can fall asleep soundly.
The wind blew a few leaves that finished somehow by falling on Yu Bin's soft hair and both teenagers were sleeping soundly, not caring about what could happen to them in the future.
Opening her eyes, Yu Bin woke up face to face with Xian Chen, who was sleeping soundly.
"Ack, he's so handsome even when he's asleep," she thought, and she was lost in that thought for a while.
The moment Xian Chen opened his eyes, what he saw made him startle for a moment. Yu Bin was very close to him and she looked him straight in the eye.
"What are you doing Yu Bin?"
"I ... I ..."
"Stop staring at me."
"I was wondering … Xian Chen, are you human?"
"Why? Am I too handsome ?" he asked dramatically
"Ohoo, I was wondering if you're human because you look like ... just like a monkey," Yu Bin said with a laugh.
"Like a ... monkey? how dare you"Xian Chen said and jumped on her, tickling her as Yu Bin giggled and struggled to run out.
"stop, ha ha ha, stop, I can't anymore, please stop XiAn Chen, I'm sorry. Brother Xian, please, stooooop. she said, laughing hard."
Hearing her say brother in such a way, made him shudder for a moment. It felt so good to hear someone naming him like that.
" Xian Chen, are you okay? How is your wound?"
"I'm ok … Yu Bin ... Can you call me from now on, Brother Xian?"
"Oh? Why ?" Yu Bin asked smirking
"sounds nice ..." He answered looking at the window in front of him.
"Ok brother Xian. Yu Bin teased and Xian Chen blushed."
A small smile appeared on Xian Chen's face and Yu Bin got stunned. Naturally, Xian Chen was a handsome man. But smiling, he seemed out of this world. Her heart started beating uncontrollably and Xian Chen instantly shivered not knowing what had happened.
Just a moment ago, his heart was beating normally and now it beats so much. It intensified his idea that he might have heart problems.
"Yu Bin, turn around, I want to change my bandage"
"Let me help you..."
"It's okay, I can do it, please turn around," Xian Chen said seriously and Yu Bin turned.
He untied the bandages one by one and changed them. Longwei was right. He was poisoned. But he can't let Yu Bin know. When the rope will untie then he will go and get healed.
* Were they trying to kill Yu Bin? Is anyone trying to destroy the royal family?*Why, who? No wonder that day when Yu Bin was fighting, the corpses were much fiercer.* This thought kept him stuck for a while. so Yu Bin began to worry. "Brother Xian, are you okay?" Yu Bin took him out of his thoughts. *She was feeling anxious?* he thought to himself. "I'm fine Yu Bin, don't worry. I just remembered that I had to meet someone, but being connected to you, I can't go. That's all." "I can go with you ..." "It's okay, I'll go when I'm free." " What if you're not free?" " It's okay, you don't have to worry about that." "Really ?" "really." knock Knock * "Come in ..." Yu Bin said, and Ming Fang came in quickly. "Yu Bib, your master ... is here ..." "Master?" "Yes ...." "Ah, look at my two babies." Master Bao Fang said entering the room followed by the queen and king. "Mom, Dad, good morning. Good morning master. Why are you all here?" "Wife, Look at this little devil. Do
"I'm fine, thanks. and you? how are you?" Bao Fang said, smirking and looking straight into her eyes, making her awkward. You almost killed me, sometimes I even wonder, master, are you trying to kill me?" Yu Bin blurted out without thinking about it. These words reminded Bao Fang and Xian Chen of what they had discussed before, and their faces became serious and worried, leading Yu Bin to believe that her master and brother had taken her words seriously. "Wait, master, don't get me wrong, I was joking, Brother Xian, I was joking, I don't believe what I said, okay? I trust my master and it wasn't her fault that I'm getting scared easily. Sorry " Seeing that Yu Bin was worried, they both changed their faces and laughed hard. "Really? I thought Master wanted to kill my little sister," Xian Chen said with a laugh, and Yu Bin was puzzled. It was the second time she had seen Xian Chen laugh like that. Her heart felt easier now. Seeing Xian Chen laugh was so good. "Yu Bin ?! " "Yes, ma
"My king if you allow me to speak ..." Bao Fang said bowing. "You are allowed Bao Fang" "Your highness, I know a place where Yu Bin can find her sword. If you allow me to take her for a month I'm sure we can find her the perfect sword. She said walking towards the king. "I already tried everything… " the king said, sighing deeply. He was trying so many times. From the time Yu Bin turned 12 till today, every time he heard about a new sword he would go buy it and come back with her, but none of them worked with Yu Bin. Every single sword rejected her. " Her spiritual energy is weak, that's why she was rejected and I know a place where she can cultivate. I will help her cultivate for the next two weeks then she will follow a heavy training. Just after that, she will have a chance to conquer a sword. But I'll always be right behind her" Bao Fang said. She knew Yu Bin was very weak right now, but she had a desire to be stronger. And at the end who can stay in the way of a stupid? The
Having all these things, Bao Fang couldn't carry Yu Bin in her arms so she made the sword bigger and put the princess down. "Master….are you telling me you could do this before but I needed to stay in your arms all the time? " "Yes," Bao Fang answered, giggling. "Why" "It's easier" "It's not…" "Why not ?" "How can be easier carrying someone in your arms instead of making it bigger " "Making it bigger you will use a bigger amount of spiritual energy " "Oh, but you are strong anyway, making it bigger will not cost you much," Yu Bin said and stayed down. "Sleepy ?" "Very …" Yu Bin said, sighing tiredly. "We will be back soon, you can sleep for a while, I'll keep you in my arms," Master said, staying down beside her. "Thank you master …" Yu Bin answered and let her head fall on Bao Fang's chest. After riding the sword for a while they arrived home and Bao Fang woke Yu Bin up and brought her into the house. She put the mattress on the bed and put a blanket and a few pi
"Listen, Yu Bin, I never said it will be easy, I already told you that there will be two kinds of spiritual energy there, death and life is there in the same time and you need to choose life " "Why do I need to enter the water master? Why can't I just stay close to the water ?" " you need direct contact with it" "Daaaammmmnnnn" Yu Bin shouted her lungs out. "When you are ready you can enter. I want you to know one thing before you start… I trust you, you can do it " "Ok, let's do this, " Yu Bin shouted confidently and ran inside the water. "Good luck Yu Bin " Bao Fang muttered worriedly. She indeed trusts the princess but she can't help but not be worried for her. "So cooolllllddd, master I'll be freezing to death ." She shouted from the water. "Yu Bin, listen to me " "I'm l…all..listening ma…st..er" Yu Bin answered shivering. "Close your eyes, visualize your meridian channels, do you see them ?" "Y…yes.. ma…st…er" Yu Bin answered "Now, every channel has a portal, ope
After they ate, the two left to the river where Yu Bin entered under the water and started her cultivation trying to connect herself with the water. It was not working from the first time, making her almost drown a few times, but after one week she managed to connect with the water spirit and make the water her own home. Two weeks later she was staying more in the water than with her master, waking up at five in the morning and rushing down to the river and starting her cultivation rather than going back later. Sometimes she was not going home for two to three days. After she meditated in the water she used to go out and jump in one of the biggest trees there and enter meditation again. Her golden core became stronger and she started to use her spiritual energy into jumping high and running fast. "Yu Bin, come down here " Bao Fang shouted and Yu Bin came down instantly. "Yes, master ?!" Yu Bin said, landing down and walking towards her. "Starting tomorrow I will train you in ba
"Don't be afraid, I will never let you fall, " Xan Chen said, holding her tight from behind. "That's good to know, I will never let you fall either. I will always protect you, I will protect our master, Ming Fang, mom, dad, our people…" "You are not alone Yu Bin, don't try to protect everyone alone. I am strong enough and I'll become stronger, I'll always be by your side, I'll help you protect everyone. " "Hm, thank you," Yu Bin said, letting herself fall on Xian Chen's chest watching the stars. "The stars are looking more beautiful up here, " she added looking up. "Indeed, " Xian Chen answered, smiling tenderly. His heart was so relaxed tonight. Truth be told, his heart started to heal the day Yu Bin cried for him. Every time he is close to Yu Bin he will feel so calm. She was his cure and he will always remember that. But between this feeling of calm and gratitude, he has a strange feeling inside his heart and however he thinks he can't recognize it, he never felt this.
Bao Fang followed her and when they reached the place, she put a log in the middle of the lake and called Yu Bin "Here it's what you need to do, Yu Bin. You need to stay on this log in one leg " "That's easy, " Yu Bin said and jumped on the log. The moment she raised a leg she fell on her back. "One more thing Yu Bin " "What is it, master? Yu Bin asked, then fell again, this time on her face. "Don't make waves " "What? That's impossible…. " Yu Bin shouted while falling again, not finishing her words. "Then make it possible, " Bao Fang said when Yu Bin came up from underwater. "Master, this does not make sense…" Yu Bin complained. "It will make sense in battle you need to move fast and without notice. The smallest mistake can put lives in danger " "Ackkkk" Yu Bin screamed the moment she fell again and again and again. Almost a day passed and Yu Bin didn't improve at all. When she stayed with both legs it was ok but the moment she raised one leg she would fall. "That's im
