Exit Out (2)

Her black eyes were once again surveying the surrounding area around the cabin, and like last time with little luck, only the rustling of the cool breeze against flora could be seen. The rapid red flashing of her ring took her attention, and just as quickly, Little Feng's voice sprung into her mind.

"M-master!!" his shaky tone cried out in despair. "I couldn't tell you earlier but those two inside are dangerous!!! I can feel an incredibly strong aura radiating off them!! please flee before you get into trouble!!" he desperately whaled, voice mixed with anxiety and fear to which Yang Xia took notice of.

"Even if they could be hostile, I need information on this hell hole of a forest. I'll be cautious though, and if they show even a slither of aggression, I'll run and escape to the soul world. How's that?" reassured the girl, moving her dagger to a position closer for her to grab in danger. Little Feng groaned in silence before reluctantly agreeing.

"Come back alive, master!" and left back to the soul world. Just as quickly as he left, the sound of the floor boards creaking and shuffling could be heard from inside the cabin. She turned to the doors direction, a glance at her dagger.

Making her way inside, she cautiously opened the door. As soon as it was opened, she caught the eyes of both the men in the room. Two pairs of deep amber eyes glued itself onto Yang Xia's small figure. She could feel the two staring, as if analysing whether or not she was a threat. Stepping further into the room, she folded her arms, reflecting the same gaze back at the two.

The two were sitting cross legged on the floor, rather relaxed for someone who just came back from deaths door. Yang Xia cleared her throat before talking,

"I'll get straight to the point. I want some information. Provide and I'll be in debt to you. If not, I'll let you two rot here and I'll be on my way."

The silver haired male smirked, eyes shining in interest. He placed his chin on the palm of his hand and leaned his body forward, presenting a very laid back attitude.

" Oh? Little girl, are you the one who saved us?"

He asked, ignoring her words. His voice was soft like velvet and was pleasing to the ear. Yang Xia coldly looked upon his figure. Her night like eyes resting on deep gold ones.

" So what if I did? Don't ignore my previous words."

She narrowed her eyes at him, sending a wave of threatening aura. Wang Lei sent a loud roar of laughter in response to the harmless tactic. 'This little mouse thinks she can intimidate me with her weak aura? how curious!'

" Alright, Alright little girl. You said you want information? This lord will help since you saved us. I am a man who repays all debts!"

"Then tell me where we are, this area and which way I am able to leave in."

Wang Lei grinned and nodded.

" Currently, we are in the Forest of Endings. This area is full of powerful spirit beasts, I'm surprised you've survived this far considering how high the death rate is here. There are several exit points to this forest. The closest one from here is to the East."

Yang Xia took in all the information and turned around to leave. Noticing this, Wang Lei immediately called for her,

" Little Girl, where do you think you're going? Are you planning on leaving this forest?"

A demonic smile played on his lips, Yang Xia stood still, not turning to look at him.

" Do you intend to stop me?"

Her eyes narrowed as she glanced his way. The male released a playful chuckle, eyes full of amusement.

" of course not, however I can sense that your spiritual rank isn't very strong. Would you like me to protect you from the spirit beasts outside? it's the least i can do for our saviour"

She looked at him, eyeing him with suspicion. During this whole conversation, she couldn't sense his power level. Was he hiding it? Yang Xia was on high alert since she couldn't estimate his exact power.

" I found you half dead in the forest, yet you say you can protect me." she scoffed.

The silver haired male was silent for a moment before bursting out in laughter. Yang Xia continued to stare. The male gave a Devilish smile at her.

" Little girl, I was injured because of other matters, not because of the spirit beasts here. To me, they are like little ants! Come, Little mouse! This Lord will protect you! No need to be doubtful"

'Little mouse? you dare call me a mouse? You are a mouse! your whole family is a mouse!'

Yang Xia glared at him. Her eyes shifting towards the other male in the room who hadn't spoken at all before she turned to face the entrace of the cabin.

" Do whatever."

None of their affairs concerned her. If he's insisting that he'll protect her, she wouldn't take the blame if he ended up dead. Besides, she'll figure a way out this forest with or without help. She left the cabin, leaving the two males behind.

Wang Lei stood up from the ground. The other male did the same.

"Wang Lei. Why are you protecting that girl? She has no relevance to our matter. If she dies, she dies."

A deep voice suddenly arose. Wang Lei looked at the other with a smile.

" I know. But It wouldn't be too much trouble to see where that attitude of her's will lead. For someone with little cultivation, she speaks as if she's our master hahaha! Isn't it interesting?"

Wang Jian stared at him, not understanding what his brother was up to and he had no interest in finding out. He only scoffed at his words.

"Humph, fine. However I will not join you and the girl. I'll continue to investigate our matter. You can join me when you've had your fun."

He ignored the question and as he said that, his body turned into a cloud of smoke before disappearing. Wang Lei sighed. That brother of his is no fun at all! He shook his head and hurriedly left to catch up with Yang Xia.
