15 Chapter 15

Li Jun took the paper from Chen Ming and looked at it, he realised a little later that the items on the list were herbs. Li Jun knew from what he saw that Chen Ming was a doctor but, he wasn't sure why he would need such rare herbs like this.

From where he is herbs like these are easy to find and there are millions of them, however in a weak continent like this things like these are rare and expensive.

"I can help you find some of these, you won't need to go far, the golden blade grass is in this area. I'll take you there tomorrow", Li Jun said as he looked at Chen Ming who continued to get excited as he heard Li Jun speak.

"Really, you'll help me find them", Chen Ming squealed in happiness, so much so that he didn't realise that he had crouched down and was hugging Li Jun. Li Jun felt his body stiffen, people usually didn't have physical contact with him, he disliked it. He would kill those who touch but this kid here, Li Jun didn't mind his touch. It also didn't feel disgusting like others. Feeling the stiff body Chen Ming realised what he was doing.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to I just got really happy", Chen Ming laughed awkwardly while scratching the back of his head.

"It's fine", Li Jun said which with a faint blush on his face, even Chen Ming couldn't see it even though the moonlight was shining on them both. Chen Ming cooked the beast in a stick while using the plants he got as spices and putting it on the beast. When the beast was cooked Chen Ming used his dagger to cut the beast in half.

He gave one half to Li Jun and the other one was for him. Li Jun was eating his piece when he looked up to see that Chen Ming was almost done with his. 'This kid must love eating, this beast tastes really good after all'. Li Jun couldn't help but rip his piece into half and pass it to Chen Ming who just finished his.

"For me?", Chen Ming asked as he pointed at himself. Li Jun nodded and pushed the meat closer to Chen Ming. 'I'm really hungry, but I don't wanna seen like a glutinous guy'. Chen Ming was hesitant about taking Li Jun's piece.

"I won't be able to finish all this, you eat these otherwise it will go to waste", Li Jun said trying to persuade Chen Ming to take it. His plan worked as Chen Ming took the meat while mumbling a thank you and eat it to the bone.

After they finished eating Chen Ming got his equipment out again and changed the bandages for Li Jun. They both found a spot inside the cave to rest for the night. As Chen Ming lied down on the floor he was unable to sleep. The moonlight was shining brightly, in the distant you can hear snow wolves howling. The night was a quiet night which made it hard to sleep for Chen Ming who knew that in the night was the time for the sprite to roam around and make as much noise as they like.

For Chen Ming it felt really suspicious, he turned to look at Li Jun who had his eyes closed, 'cloud it be because if this man, he is strong, really strong, his aura might have scared the beasts away'. Looking at Li Jun Chen Ming couldn't help but feel a little hopelessness in his heart. He wanted to get stronger, strong like Li Jun, but he also knew that in this world there are people who are stronger, Li Jun is a good example. In the Da continent, the strongest person isn't able to drive away so many high ranking beast just by using their aura. Chen was most certain that Li Jun wasn't from this continent, the list of herbs he has shown Li Jun earlier were rare herbs in this continent, they were so rare that even the royal family would have to pay a fortune to get them, the names of these herbs were also something that everyone, but this man didn't even look surprised.

As Chen Ming continued to stare at Li Jun he didn't seem to notice that Li Jun's closed eyes were twitching. From the very beginning, Li Jun was never asleep, he just closed his eyes to rest for a bit, but he felt a gaze on him. He didn't want to wake up, because if he did he would be found out. After a while the gaze went away, only then did Li Jun open his eyes to see Chen Ming sleeping. He looked so beautiful, along with the moonlight which made him look like a gentle angel.

Li Jun knew that he was attracted to him from the moment they meet. He didn't care at first but looking at this delicate boy sleeping Li felt that he won't be able to part with him, but he knew that he can't allow himself to get too attached, after getting what he needs he was to go back. Making up his mind Li Jun closes his eyes and went to sleep.
