Chapter 191: 191 He wants to kill for treasure? Chapter 191: 191 He wants to kill for treasure? Even from a distance, Ye Jiu could no longer see.
However, not long after, the enemy’s rain of arrows was slowly diminishing, and within moments, it had ceased.
In the distance, that shadow appeared once again, still holding an object in its hand.
As it got closer, Ye Jiu could see clearly that what the person was holding was not some object, it was clearly a person.
Sikong Mo unceremoniously dropped the person he was holding onto the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
When the dust settled, Ye Jiu could see that she actually recognized the person.
Wasn’t this that General Wei Hu with peculiar hobbies!
Ye Jiu felt somewhat guilty; she had a premonition that the first thing this person would do upon waking up was probably to try to kill her.
Fortunately, she had not been using her current face at the beginning, so if she was careful and did not attract too much attention, she should not be discovered.
“Prepare to mount up, we’ll first hide in the mountains and then tend to the wounds and await orders,” Sikong Mo instructed.
“Yes,” was the response. Even injured, their answers were still so neatly aligned.
In the mountains, Sikong Mo approached Ye Jiu, “I know you have secrets on you.”
Ye Jiu’s heart tightened, and then Sikong Mo said, “I will not investigate or ask, nor will I harbor any designs on it, but I do hope that when we need it, Miss Ye Jiu will be able to offer her utmost assistance. Of course, I won’t ask for your things for free.”
Ye Jiu remained silent.
His words sounded good, but if he knew how heaven-defying the Plane Space she carried was, would he still be able to keep to his current principles?
Seeing Ye Jiu’s expression, Sikong Mo knew that she was guarding against him.
But didn’t he think it was already too late?
The very first time she took out medicine, the first time she decided to save someone, she should have been prepared for the possibility that she might expose herself.
Furthermore, as the War King, he had some credibility; if he said he wouldn’t touch her things, he definitely wouldn’t.
Looking at such a nervous Ye Jiu, Sikong Mo also harbored the desire to tease her, so he stepped closer, until his breath could hit her face, “Miss Ye Jiu, you must have something like a Qiankun Bag on you that can hold all kinds of items. Tell me, am I right?”
Ye Jiu, who had lived two lives and was not very old in either, had not seen much of the world and naturally was no match for the far more cunning and scheming Sikong Mo.
With just a few words, he had already made her start to panic.
“This commoner does not understand what Master Sikong is talking about. Besides, there should be a distinction between men and women, please show some respect, sir,” said Ye Jiu, who had already decided in her heart that next time, no matter how difficult the situation, she would not use the Plane Space in front of others.
“Actually, you could try to trust me; I will not harm you,” Sikong Mo said, not knowing what his feelings were towards Ye Jiu, but his words were truly sincere.
Having lived nearly twenty-one years, and since becoming ten years old, she was the only girl he had been close to in these years; no matter from what aspect, he would not harm her.
Sikong Mo didn’t know that Ye Jiu would never trust anyone.
If even one’s own parents could abandon her so cold-heartedly, let alone them not being very familiar.
“If you don’t want to talk about it, that’s okay. Maybe we’ll never meet again in the future,” Sikong Mo said leisurely.
Ye Jiu’s eyes widened, “What do you mean?”
Could it be that he wanted to kill her and take her treasures?
But he had just claimed that he wouldn’t hurt her; how could he go back on his word so quickly?
