Hu Mei Er didn't dare to continue speaking; afraid of offending Yang Kai with her words.
"Come over here!" Yang Kai suddenly beckoned her over, Hu Mei Er delicately trembled, her tears threatening to spill. Tightly she bit her lip, begging Yang Kai with all her heart and didn't dare to move a single step.
"What are you afraid of? I told you to come over, so come over!" Yang Kai called out impatiently.
Helpless and left without a choice, Hu Mei Er could only walk to Yang Kai. Slowly she walked over to him and stopped when she was around five steps away from him, looking at him alarmingly.
Sensing her fear, Yang Kai found it ridiculous, but he still kept his the same calm façade. "Be obedient and I won't hurt you."
His indifferent tone carried an overbearing feeling.
Hu Mei Er used all her strength to nod her head. "I will listen."
*En.* Only then was Yang Kai satisfied. Bending down, he carried Nu Tao's corpse over his shoulder and looked over to Cheng Shao Feng's body, "carry him!"
Although she felt nauseous, Hu Mei Er didn't dare disobey his order. Kneeling down as if she was wronged, she went to pick up Cheng Shao Feng's corpse. Although she was a female, she was after all a martial practitioner and carrying 50 kilograms or so wasn't really a burden.
"Follow me." Looking in a certain direction, Yang Kai went to walk deeper into Black Wind Forest.
Hu Mei Er didn't know what he wanted to do nor did she dare to ask and thus she could only blindly follow him.
Yang Kai wanted to dispose of the corpses. This place was already quite desolate, but he didn't know if some random couple might have a bit of courage and rendezvous with another half here.
The causes of death for Cheng Shao Feng and Nu Tao were very special; they were both killed by a boiling hot energy that had directly pierced through their vitals. If Storm House investigated their deaths utilizing this information as a basis, perhaps it might lead them to him.
So Yang Kai must throw the corpses far away, making sure that Storm House's people would never find them.
Two people, one in front and the other behind, walked deeper into the forest. Hu Mei Er hesitated many times, but in the end decided not to speak out.
After a while, a lake suddenly appeared in front of them. Yang Kai's eyes shone a brilliant light and he decided their burial location.
Yang Kai signaled to Hu Mei Er to put down the corpse, and he went to search for two big stones. When he returned, he tied these stones to Cheng Shao Feng and Nu Tao's corpses and threw them into the lake.
Brushing his hands, Yang Kai muttered for a while. "You can now be considered my accomplice, and you should know how to act right?"
Finished, he turned around to look at her dismissively.
With that said, Hu Mei Er was not surprised and repeatedly nodded her head, "I know."
The fact that Yang Kai could say these words meant that he had no evil intentions regarding her, guaranteeing her life. Hu Mei Er's heart and mind relaxed and she involuntarily gasped.
"Smart. Smart young girls will always be liked by others." Yang Kai laughed out lightly.
Now that he thought about it, Yang Kai really didn't know how to deal with Hu Mei Er because if he didn't kill her, she would always be a dangerous element. Today's events were all witnessed by her; however, he could not bear to kill her. From start to finish, Hu Mei Er did not injure him at all; she only stood to the side and watched. It was simply unreasonable for him to kill her.
After walking for such a long time, Yang Kai had thought it through. This entire affair was completely spurred on by Cheng Shao Feng and Nu Tao and if he didn't kill them, then he would be just sitting and waiting for his own death. So, even if Hu Mei Er spread news regarding this event, Yang Kai wasn't the least bit afraid.
"Have you killed others before?" Hu Mei Er was much more courageous now she thought her life was safe.
Yang Kai shook his head. "This is the first time I killed someone."
"But I saw that your strikes were very experienced, and when you killed them, you didn't even crease your brows. It did not look like it was your first time." Hu Mei Er said, unconvinced.
With that said, Yang Kai wrinkled his forehead. That was true; it was his first time killing someone, why wasn't he the least bit afraid? Although he didn't feel any excitement, he definitely felt no fear. Back then, he was only focused on the battle, and his brain only thought about killing them, now when he thought about it, it was all a bit inconceivable.
"Whether or not you believe me is up to you." Yang Kai didn't bother explaining any further.
Circling around the lake, he walked to the place furthest away from the location he had dropped the corpses. There, Yang Kai stopped in his steps and dived head first into the lake.
During the course of this battle, Yang Kai had received no small amount of wounds, he needed to at least get washed clean before returning.
Hu Mei Er stood at the lakeside waiting while thinking about going in too. If it was before, she would definitely have gone in to provoke Yang Kai, but now she didn't have the guts.
Waiting until he finished his bath and came back up, Hu Mei Er finally spoke. "Wait for me, I also want to go and wash up as well." Having carried that dead body for such a long journey, Hu Mei Er felt uncomfortable all over.
Women would always love cleanliness.
"Okay." Yang Kai replied while wringing dry his clothes, before going to lie on a stone to bask under the sun and recover his strength.
Not daring to undress, Hu Mei Er directly dove into the lake and her body, as graceful as a fish in water, was completely visible. From time to time, she would secretly look back to see if Yang Kai was looking at her, but he didn't even have the least bit intention to look at her, delivering a fatal blow to her pride.
[He wasn't the least bit moved?]
After a good half an hour, Hu Mei Er had finally washed her-self clean and swam ashore.
With her clothes stuck closely to her body, her exquisite and alluring figure was fully revealed. Forthrightly, she walked over to Yang Kai's side with her cheeks bright red and sat down to bask in the sun with him.
Yang Kai opened his eyes to look at her, his gaze sweeping all over her, Hu Mei Er kept her head lowered.
"Figure is really good." Yang Kai mumbled, nodding his head.
Hu Mei Er nibbled her dark red lips, her expression incomprehensible, "Actually…..I haven't really done those types of things with a man, to the point that the only man that has touched my body...is you alone. These past few years, the only reason why I act like I do is one, to help the group recruit a couple more talented people and to strain the relationship between the High Heaven Pavilion and Storm House Disciples. To nag had also become one of my motives."
Hearing this, Yang Kai stared blankly at her before looking deeply at her.
"You don't believe me?" Hu Mei Er's cheeks were very red, this secret she had never told anyone before. Outside people truly thought she playing away each night, exhausting men. On the outside, calling her princess, my lady, but behind her back, they called her slut or a whore.
"I believe you!" Yang Kai nodded his head, "But how is this related to me?"
Hu Mei Er's face darkened as she forced a smile, "in the future, I will no longer come to pester you."
This afternoon's event, the impact it had on her was a bit too big.
Hearing her say this, Yang Kai couldn't help but feel his heart relax, for he had finally gotten rid of this inconvenience.
Waiting until Hu Mei Er's clothes had dried, only then did the two leave the lakeside.
To avoid other's eyes and ears, Yang Kai and Hu Mei Er parted ways early on, each returning their own Sect.
After he returned to his wooden hut, he rested for a while before going to Coiling Dragon Stream. This great battle had exhausted his hard earned Yang Liquid. Naturally, he must quickly replenish his Yang Yuan Qi; otherwise, when he experiences this type of situations again, he would have no way to deal with it.
Not only did he consume two drops, the power roused Yang Kai's determination greatly, for he would never have imagined that the Yang Liquid's might would be so formidable. He was only at the Tempered Body Eight Stage and if his cultivation was higher, wouldn't the Yang Liquid's might be even more powerful? No matter the reason, Yang Kai was itching to begin his training again.
