Hugging Zhang Yuan's arm, Mei Xiu glimpsed around at the disciples, and looking at her concerned expression, Zhang Yuan asked "You want to help them, Lin'er?"
Hm? Ming Yuelin frowned slightly, but then she shook her head "No, master... we can go."
With a smile, Zhang Yuan patted her head "That's how you should be. Be selfish..."
Ming Yuelin let out a giggle "Of course Master. if I helped someone and if they got the Inheritance before me, that would be troublesome..."
"I know when I need to be harsh and when I need to be soft, master..."
"Haha... Keep that attitude because getting a Sovereign's Inheritance is not a small thing."
Zhang Yuan added, "You will get a lot of foes and even allies..."
Ming Yuelin just smiled and rested her head on his shoulder "I have my Master, so I don't have to worry about anything."
She slowly brought her right palm to his palm and slowly intertwined her fingers with him, feeling the heat radiating from his body.
"I really feel like I have spoiled you too much..."
Ming Yuelin showed her tongue and giggled "It's your fault, you made me like this."
Zhang Yuan reached out and softly pinched her cheek.
"By the way Master, do you know where do I have to go next?"
Zhang Yuan gave a faint nod "Yeah, I know..."
"Muhehe." Ming Yuelin raised her chest proudly and commanded "Take me there Master."
"No."
(>_<) "Eh? Why Masterrrrrrrrr! Please! Please!" She pleaded shaking his hand.
Zhang Yuan let out a faint chuckle "I can guide you there... but you have to face the obstacles."
Ming Yuelin showed thumbs up "Yes, master... Leave that to me."
They continued their walk to get out of the forest and Ming Yuelin raised her head looking at the sky which was getting dark.
"Is it going to rain?"
Ming Yuelin frowned slightly and realization dawned on her 'Wait.. this feels the same as in the illusion?'
'Am I still in illusion?'
'No, no... I am sure, I am not in in illusion...'
Her pupils shrank in terror "WHAAHEIUH- MASTER! MASTER! QUICK! QUICK! HURRY UP!!!!!"
"COME AND CATCH ME!"
When she was just 10 meters, she tightly closed her eyes as she mumbled in her heart 'My Master... he is just teasing me...'
Huh? However, at this time, she felt a bright light in front of her eyes and she hurriedly opened her eyes to see what it was.
Looking at the bright red energy condensing in front of her, Ming Yuelin was surprised "Another portal?"
*swish* She fell into the portal and as she entered, the portal disappeared.
...
*swoosh* Ming Yuelin reappeared in the sky of some unknown place and because of the gravity, she again fell to the ground.
"OH COME ON?! HOW LONG DO I NEED TO FALL LIKE THIS!!"
"HAVE SOME MERCY!"
Her black hair fluttered up in the wind and instead of screaming in fear, she was calm this time.
-_- She blankly stared at the ground as she hurled toward it 'I got used to this shit now.'
As her body inched close to the ground, she frowned and as her body was just two meters above the ground, it suddenly came to a halt.
*thud* And with a faint thud, she fell to the ground.
She quickly got up and looked around, confusion clouding her thoughts "There is a secret realm within a secret realm and I am still in a forest?"
*swish* At this time, Zhang Yuan appeared there and Ming Yuelin hit his shoulder "Master, I hate you... why did you suddenly do that?"
"At least you could have told me."
Zhang Yuan chuckled softly and hugged her shoulder "That won't be fun. I can't see your hilarious reactions."
"Hmph!" Ming Yuelin just pouted her lips and glanced away.
*thrissh* As she looked at the forest, she was startled as the whole forest began to burn brightly in crimson flames.
She felt the radiating heat hitting her body and was dumbfounded "Master, the forest is on fire..."
Zhang Yuan nodded hi ahead "Now you are in the real Inheritance ground, this is your first trial."
