"Brother Xia, there's a cave up ahead. We can take shelter from the rain." A woman's voice rang out from outside the cave. Following it was a man's voice. Judging from his tone, he seemed rather young.
"Yes, Yuhan. Be careful." Xia Youtian replied in concern.
...
"Who's there?" The moment the both of them entered the cave, Lin Fan pretended to wake up and asked.
The moment Xia Youtian heard that there was someone, he looked at the other party warily. But when he could no longer sense the other party's aura, he heaved a sigh of relief. So, it was just an ordinary person.
"Brother, it's raining heavily outside. We'd like to stay here for the night." Xia Youtian replied politely.
"Oh, it's alright. There's a fire over there. We can warm ourselves up. It's too humid in the rain, and it's easy to get sick." Lin Fan sat up straight. In this pitch black cave, the light from the fire could not light up the cave at all.
"Yes." Xia Youtian nodded his head. He then gestured for He Yuhan to sit down. Both of them sat down cross-legged and started circulating their True Energy. A white mist floated out of them, causing their slightly damp clothes to dry up.
"Eh? So, you two are martial artists?" Lin Fan pretended to be surprised. "That's right.
May I know where you're from, brother? "Xia Youtian chuckled. However, he was still cautious in his heart.
He had just escaped from his family. Along the way, he had survived three ambushes. If not for the rain, he wouldn't have stayed here.
But now that it was raining outside, the footprints and scent should have been covered by now. Those people should not be able to find him.
"I'm just an ordinary person from the Qinshen Dynasty." Lin Fan chuckled.
"Brother Xia, eat this." He Yuhan took out a pill from her storage ring. The moment the pill was revealed, a fragrant aroma filled the entire cave.
"Smells so good …" Lin Fan was stunned. This pill was good stuff! But he pretended not to know anything about it.
"This is just an ordinary pill that dispels frost. It's nothing good." Xia Youtian patted He Yuhan's hands, indicating for her to not be too ostentatious.
It was all thanks to He Yuhan that he was able to escape from the clan this time. However, he had dragged He Yuhan down with him.
He Yuhan looked at Lin Fan with a hint of a smile in her eyes.
But this smile was more of a warning, as if saying, no matter who you are, you better behave yourself.
"Oh …" Lin Fan didn't say much. Then, he laid down and said, "You two should rest early. I'll sleep first. We still have to hurry on with our journey tomorrow."
"Alright …"
...
The night was quiet as Xia Youtian and He Yuhan conversed softly.
Now that he had been framed, he could no longer stay in the family that he had lived in for seventeen years. If not for Little Sister Yuhan's help, he might have died in the hands of those Poison Men.
Even though he knew that Yuhan wasn't an ordinary person, they had known each other since they were young. Naturally, Xia Youtian didn't suspect anything.
Now that his cultivation base was at pericelestial lower level, Xia Youtian knew that a large part of the credit had to be given to Little Sister Yuhan.
All these years, Little Sister Yuhan would often bring him some unknown pills to share with him. Even though Little Sister Yuhan had always said that they were just ordinary pills, Xia Youtian was no fool. He knew that these pills were definitely extraordinary. After consuming them, he could feel his cultivation speed increasing by leaps and bounds.
"Let's sleep first." Xia Youtian looked at Lin Fan and said to He Yuhan.
"Yes."
...
Lin Fan hadn't slept at all. His mind was filled with thoughts of these two people.
Without a doubt, this lad was a pauper. His cultivation base was trash, and there was nothing much to be gained.
But this young lady beside him was different. Her cultivation base was even higher than this lad's. In fact, she was even stronger than most of the people that Lin Fan had met.
Pericelestial full cultivation base.
Even though this cultivation base wasn't much, to Lin Fan, it was a little strange for it to appear on a young lady.
And the pill that she had just taken out was extraordinary as well. As a master of cultivating pills, he could tell the quality of the pill just by smelling it.
That pill from earlier on was an Earth Upper Grade Pill. Even within the sect, that was considered a pretty decent pill. To be able to take it out so casually, it was evident that he was no ordinary person.
At this moment, Lin Fan could not help but think of robbing them.
Gradually, the cave quietened down. Only the sound of breathing could be heard.
Within the darkness, a pair of bright eyes could be seen moving.
Lin Fan felt that he had to teach these two kids a lesson. How could they sleep so soundly when they were outside? What if they were to meet with bad people?
Even though they might lose some money, it was better than being killed for no reason in the future.
With a heart of saving the world, Lin Fan stood up gently. His footsteps were light and light. Pushing his skills to the max, he made no sound at all.
Even this young lady of pericelestial full cultivation base wouldn't be able to sense any movement from him.
Lin Fan remained silent. When he neared the both of them, Lin Fan didn't mind giving them a brick.
When he arrived before the both of them, Lin Fan's lips curled into a smile. Looking at the both of them in deep sleep, he couldn't help but sigh. What a golden couple!
Actually, it wasn't that Xia Youtian and the others were in deep sleep. It was just that Lin Fan's skills were way too strong. It was so strong that they couldn't sense any movement from him at all. In fact, Lin Fan didn't even give off any aura at all.
If they were to close their eyes, Lin Fan would be as good as invisible in front of them.
"Hehe …" Lin Fan snickered to himself. He then looked at the ring on He Yuhan's finger.
That ring shone brightly in the darkness, as though it was a star in the night sky. It was extremely eye-catching.
"My apologies."
Lin Fan reached out with his evil hand. But just then, Lin Fan stopped what he was doing.
Because at that moment, Lin Fan could feel an aura locking down on him.
It was as though the other party could kill him the moment he made his move.
At this moment, Lin Fan's brain started working furiously.
This aura was strong, and he was definitely not a match for it. But with the defensive capabilities of Eternal Demon Body, he wondered if he could withstand it.
And this powerful being was hiding in the dark, not moving at all. He must be waiting for Lin Fan to make his move.
Since this powerful being wasn't appearing, he must be protecting the both of them. For someone to be willing to be protected by a powerful being in the dark, the items in this storage ring must definitely be good stuff.
Should he do it or not?
At this moment, Lin Fan was hesitating. Sigh, damn it, what a bad start.
Lin Fan wasn't feeling too good right now. Why the f * ck did he have to be so unlucky? To think that he couldn't even touch a rich man.
"It's so humid, how can I not cover myself with something? What if I fall sick? " Lin Fan reluctantly took over his blanket and gently covered the two of them. Then, he shook his head slightly and laid back down to continue sleeping. At the same time, the aura that had locked onto him disappeared as well, as if it had never existed in the first place.
Two streams of tears flowed down from the corner of Lin Fan's eyes. It was a painful realization.
He Yuhan, who was sleeping soundly, opened her eyes. She let out a deep smile and went back to sleep.
Lin Fan couldn't sleep no matter how hard he tried.
This was the first time he wanted to rob someone so badly, but it ended in failure. Lin Fan was indignant. 'You better not be caught by me in the future, or Young Master will strip you naked.'

PS: Thank you, Guild Master Steven0625. Sigh, I should owe 70 chapters now. Basically, it's all thanks to Steven0625. Looks like I'll have to find some time to slowly pay it back. My inspiration is limited every day. Sometimes, I really feel like my writing is trash. Sigh … I envy my peers who can update two chapters a day.
