Chapter 16.1 - Troublesome tool

“Cough!” Lin Xiao embarrassingly took away the clothes in Ling Luo’s hand, quickly dressed up and then lifted his face to look at Ling Luo’s pretty face. Trying to shift the attention, Lin Xiao coughed twice and afterwards, he stared at Ling Luo with a serious expression: “Ling Luo {n}.”

{when they met in the village Ling Luo was wearing a human mask, but the author didn’t state it (she did when that beauty asked Lin Xiao who was more beautiful between her sister and she). Anyway, Lin Xiao shouldn’t have recognized him, so Ling Luo told him that his name was Ling Yu, which sounds… pretty girly to me}

Ling Luo was stupefied. He raised his hand to touch his face… he has indeed lost the human mask. But Ling Luo didn’t try to cover the truth, in fact he apologized: “I’m sorry,” and then honestly explained, “I am wanted by someone, so I had no choice but to change my face.”

Lin Xiao obviously knew what happened to Ling Luo, but he still continued to ask: “From what kind of person?”

Ling Luo pursed up his lips: “Refine Medicine Country. I killed an important person from a big and powerful clan.” Maybe because they have experienced life and death together, furthermore Lin Xiao gave the Spiritual Xudan Grass to him, but now his distrust towards Lin Xiao has decreased by a lot, so he directly revealed him the whole matter…

“This…” Lin Xiao frowned, “but now your previous human mask has been lost, so do you have any others? If you don’t, wait to complete the Refinement Fire Test, and then I will let my father send someone over!”

Ling Luo smiled to Lin Xiao’s kindness: “I have already prepared identical masks.”

Human masks were extremely expensive, because the required materials were scarce. But thanks to Xuan Ye’s guidance, he could produce some rare, but simple Dan Pills, which he sold away, obtaining enough money to buy human masks, therefore Ling Luo was currently a nouveau riche… Lin Xiao didn’t need to worry at all.

{tl: now explained how he could pay the school fees}

Ling Luo fished out a ‘Ling Yu’ mask from his Tiny Subspace and stuck it to his face. His delicate and pretty face disappeared, covered by an extremely common face.

“Let’s rest for a while, and then leave. Half a month has passed, if we don’t, we may not be able to get out from here.”

Ling Luo nodded his head.

Right now, Ling Luo’s cultivation was higher than Lin Xiao’s, therefore Lin Xiao didn’t need to act when running into Magic Beasts, because Ling Luo could easily wipe them out.

… Lin Xiao secretly determined to absolutely improve his cultivation.

The Magic Beasts they met were all low level ones, so they walked on the road very calmly. Lin Xiao would sometimes move the hand himself.

In these days, even though Lin Xiao’s cultivation didn’t increase, his combat skills got better.

They weren’t far away from the Refinement Test’s ending period. While passing somewhere, Lin Xiao heard a girl yelling.

“Let me go! You beast!” Her voice sounded extremely angry. This sentence sounded familiar, and made Lin Xiao understand what was happening over there.

Wasn’t she the one who was almost going to be fucked?

Lin Xiao and Ling Luo looked at each other. Lin Xiao was a little hesitant on what to do or not, because after all in this world, saving oneself was more important. Besides, he didn’t have any connection with this woman.

In the end, Lin Xiao decided to take a look first and then consider whether to save her or not. Ling Luo shrugged his shoulders, not caring about helping her or not. He would see what Lin Xiao was going to do.
