Chapter 387 Mission Complete!
"Senior sister Zhang!" The brown-haired woman called out for the red-haired woman in worry. Her eyes were filled with fear and wariness. Experience tales with empire
'I need to inform someone from the sect!' She reached out to pull a communication talisman from her storage ring, but she found herself unable to move, let alone channel her qi.
"I… I will say it again, I don't care about any Emperor!" The woman raised her lowered head, looking at Noah in the eyes.
*Boom!*
She flared her cultivation to break out of her fear for Noah. Her actions surprised Noah a little. 'To think she could overcome the innate presence of a true dragon just with her will. Even though I was restraining it to the minimum.'
But her next actions annoyed Noah. She raised the whip in her hand and slashed it down at Ruo'er.
"I will deal with one of your demons if I cannot deal with both. You will be coming with me one way or another." Senior sister Zhang yelled with a sharp look on her face. Even the woman beside her was surprised by her actions.
Ruo'er could not move her body, seeing the whip coming in her direction. She gritted her teeth, realizing she hadn't recovered her qi. So she braced herself for the attack while memorizing the face of the woman. 'I will definitely pay you back for this strike.'
*Smack!*
But the whip she expected to hit her never came. It was stopped by a single hand. Noah looked at the rope in his hand and raised his head to look in the eyes of the woman holding it.
"You!!!" Since Noah was wearing his mask, the woman surnamed Zhang could not notice his expression, but she could not help but feel her body quivering at the sight of the man.
"I am done with words." She did not understand what Noah meant by what he said. Her mind seemed to have stopped working; she was no longer able to see anything but red color and hear a ringing sensation in her left ear.
*Boom!*
Before her mind could comprehend, the red-haired woman lost consciousness and lay on the deck of the ship with a huge red palm imprint on her left cheek.
"Senior sister!" It took a while for the other woman to realize what had happened, and she rushed to her Senior sister and supported her. Seeing that she was rendered unconscious by a single strike, she became more fearful of Noah.
"Get off the ship. We have other places to be." She shivered hearing Noah's voice coming from behind her. The coldness in his voice made her unable to look the man in the face.
"I will inform the Sect Master about this matter. Even if you are the King's subordinate—"
"Sect Master? Haha!!" Noah suddenly started laughing eerily, scaring both her and Ruo'er. "You are scaring me with the name of a woman who could not properly handle her own sect. Hmph! While you tell her what happened here, do tell her that we will be meeting, and it will be very soon!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn
As soon as the words Noah spoke entered her ears, the woman realized she was no longer on the ship. She was standing in the middle of the air far away from the ship, and her Senior sister Zhang was in her embrace as well.
"It finally came to bite you back, didn't it." She looked at the woman in her hands and sighed in dejection. Even after everything happened, there was not a hint of remorse or complaint in her eyes.
When she looked back up, the ship was no longer anywhere to be seen. Her eyes moved to the woman in her arms as she turned around to leave their spot.
With a wave of her hand, a huge leaf-shaped flying artifact appeared in front of her eyes.
*Woosh!*
Sitting on the artifact, she placed her senior sister beside her and rushed towards the sect.
Back on the ship, Ruo'er kept looking at Noah intently but did not say anything. Her eyes held a hint of gratitude and worry.
"Urghh!" Hearing the sound coming from beside her, she turned her head and saw one of her 'uncle's' disciples was about to wake up.
*Smack!*
Recalling how Noah had stopped Shisan from waking up, Ruo'er kicked the head of the guy, making him fall unconscious once more.
The guy she kicked was none other than Tian Heng. Seeing Ruo'er kick a guy like that made Noah's lips twitch behind the mask. 'Is she angry? Does she like to kick people when she is angry?!... Poor Long Tian.'
Unaware of what Noah was thinking about her, Ruo'er smiled in satisfaction seeing the boy fall back unconscious.
*Woosh!*
In next to no time, they found themselves at their destination. Seeing the huge arrays come into sight after it detected their presence, Ruo'er sighed out loud.
She glanced at the people lying all around the ship and then at Noah. Flying in the air, he approached the array and placed his hand on it.
*Blop!*
A series of ripples appeared on the surface of the array as it started to open a small hole in the same place Noah had placed his hands.
The hole widened until it was wide enough to pass the ship through it. Noah willed the boat to enter through the passage.
Upon returning back to the sect, the first thing he saw was the smiling face of Xin Yan, standing there in the same spot of the training ground. 'With this, the mission is complete.'
The smile on her face faded as soon as it came, and it was replaced by an emotionless expression. Her eyes swirled with a dark shadow that seemed to swallow the air around them.
Before Noah could react, he found the woman standing right in front of him. He cursed himself for being careless when he saw her hand caressing around the dry blood left in some places of his robes.
