Chapter 116: 116 two adorable dorks asking for a beating

Mu Hanyan raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling the urge to flatten someone.

"No," Huayue categorically denied Zirong’s words, which also helped Mu Hanyan curb his impulse to take action momentarily.

"It’s for playing the pig to catch the tiger," Huayue added with all seriousness.

Off to the side, Mu Nan grinned again. This seemed to be the same thing, didn’t it? These two clowns were actually quite amusing.

"You two, if you want to die, just say it!" Mu Hanyan finally blew his top, feeling that if he didn’t show these two a bit of color, they would never know why the flowers were so red! Mu Hanyan drew his longsword and charged at them.

The two clowns turned and fled, and behind them, Che Xiang also revealed a warm smile. Was this really just a master-and-guard relationship? It seemed more like friendship. Such camaraderie warmed his heart and made him envious.

The path ahead grew even more rugged and perilous, and even Huayue and Zirong began to struggle. Without the use of ropes and tools like Che Xiang, it would have been challenging to progress. However, with the strength of a Sixth-tier Swordsman like Mu Hanyan, the group continued forward without major incident, quickly advancing towards the cliff where Che Xiang had initially slipped and fallen.

Following from a distance, Fourth Miss Zhao’s expression soured as she watched their agile figures leap and bound.

Indeed, Mu Hanyan had improved his strength; his agility was truly no less than Mu Feng’s.

"The guy’s strength is really not bad. Fortunately, Xian’er, you warned me, otherwise I might have been at a disadvantage," Zhao Sinin noted, relieved by the agility of Mu Hanyan’s movements, which seemed no less than his own.

"Cousin, are you sure that those Golden Chains will work?" Fourth Miss Zhao put aside the strong feeling of revulsion the two words ’Xian’er’ evoked and asked Zhao Sinin worriedly.

Knowing the guy’s true strength, she felt that the elite from Zhengying Academy might not be so reliable.

"Don’t worry, Xian’er, my martial uncle personally watched me refine those Golden Chains; there definitely won’t be a problem. You just need to make sure you don’t make a mistake when the time comes," Zhao Sinin said confidently.

"Cousin, you underestimate me too much. There might be other things I can’t do, but what’s so hard about this? Isn’t it just about using all my Qi to activate the Golden Chains in front of Mu Hanyan? If I can’t even do such a simple task, I’d be an idiot," Fourth Miss Zhao retorted with disdain.

"Mm-hmm, yes, this task is indeed not difficult for you, Xian’er; I was just talking too much," Zhao Sinin quickly smiled apologetically, seeing her displeased expression.

"And how many times have I told you, don’t call me Xian’er," Fourth Miss Zhao managed to suppress the urge to freak out and said discontentedly.

"Okay, okay, I promise I won’t say it again, Xian’er," Zhao Sinin nodded solemnly, making a promise.

Fourth Miss Zhao rolled her eyes fiercely, her mouth twitching violently a few times. She stomped her foot and chased after the direction in which Mu Hanyan and his group had departed.

And trailing even further behind them, Mu Cheng also arrived, panting and sweating profusely.

Among the two groups ahead, both Mu Hanyan and Zhao Sinin had impressive skills, so even with their respective burdens, they were not slow. But Mu Cheng was different, being only a Third-tier Swordsman. It was not easy to track two experts above the rank of Fifth-tier Swordsman on such rough and dangerous mountain roads, especially since he didn’t dare to get too close to Mu Hanyan for fear of being discovered.

Fortunately, he had with him a small beast slightly bigger than a palm. This creature was covered with pale golden fur, and its reddish-gold nose was particularly noticeable—none other than the famous Golden-nosed Mongoose Beast, known for its keen sense of smell. Though not an Exotic Beast, the Golden-nosed Mongoose Beast’s smell was much sharper than that of many Exotic Beasts.

It was thanks to this Golden-nosed Mongoose Beast that he hadn’t lost the trail, managing to hang far back behind Mu Hanyan and the others.
