Chapter 18: Shao Cheng Dark Thought, Ren Yuan Misunderstanding and Mistaken Idea
Before Shao Cheng can observe more at the current situation, suddenly he felt himself being pulled away while the white mist gently caresses his face before seemingly making a waving action toward him before his entire vision turned dark.
In a dark room, the small and thin figure that has been sleeping in the bed suddenly woke up, sapphire eyes opening wide before those pale lip has let out a small grunt of pain before delicate hands move over to grasp his chest with a tight fist.
"Ah, urgh"
Ah why... it hurt, so painful what is this pain? Is it because his soul was pulled out from his physical body?
Currently, Shao Cheng felt the familiar painful feeling at the time when the purple dragon has gone into his soul and became his current power.
For a while now, Shao Cheng has been a bit suspicious about having high fever when he was rescued by Ren Yuan, after all, he has never have gotten those three days straight of burning fever with high temperature that he almost dies because of it because hen it was Huang Ya that rescue him from drowning in the previous life, it never happens like that.
And this time he was even rescued faster from his previous life.
So different this life is so different he felt like there have been too many things that he didn't know in the past, something he has miss, however, Shao Cheng was unable to continue to think anymore as the pain continues to torture him.
It's felt like the power on his soul was being united on his current physical body as sweats keep coming out from his back and forehead as he endures the brunt of the purple energies that have completely woken up after his soul was pulled out which seemed to have been lying dormant from before.
Seemingly like it has been forever but only for a minute, Shao Cheng couldn't help but let out a gasp of pain and tiredness, while sweat completely soaking his sleeping robes while his body felt a bit refresh and stronger despite the suffering he has just experienced.
Although he has many questions right now, but the image of what he has seen is still freshly ingrained on his mind so he swiftly changes his clothes in another white robe since that was the only clothes that Ren Yuan has given him, seemingly having fun with anything related to the word "White' before taking all the item he needed, soon Shao Cheng went out of his room, however, he distinctly saw the way that the supposed guard of his is currently laying down in the ground without any consciousness.
Bending down over to examine the unconscious person in the ground, Shao Cheng has instantly figured out that the person was given a strong dose of sleeping medicine making Shao Cheng sapphire eyes to narrow down before his nose has suddenly smelt something weird which causes him to instantly cover his mouth and nose with his white long sleeves.
It's a heavy dose of medicine to knock out people that have been burn in the fire while it slowly spread over the entire place and affecting everyone around it without getting anyone suspicious.
This is an easy movement but hard to figure it out until its too late, unless one is proficient enough in the way of medicine.
But to easily create a circumstance like this is very suspicious already, Shao Cheng knows how hard it was to kill and attack Ren Yuan so easily, Shao Cheng tried numerous time after all, even if Ren Yuan is currently young, that man is like a cockroach and so hard to kill that has caused him too much grievance just handling him in the past.
So, there is no way that anyone can easily and secretly make everyone unconscious and unguarded in Ren Yuan residence, especially when there is an incoming attack happening any second now.
Suspicious, very suspicious, Shao Cheng mind continues to ponder deeply about it, even the hidden guards were taken out without any trouble and causing any commotion is already enough proof that this isn't just a simple situation.
A traitor, that is the best method to catch a person of guard, especially if its the closest allies and followers.
After having enough idea about what is happening, Shao Cheng, sapphire eyes narrowed down before quickly using his special senses, then the world before his eyes change into something different and mysterious, starting to the ground with life within it spreading to the plants and trees, before connecting to the bird flying at the sky and perch in a tree, small animals like as ants, rats and everything within the range of the residence of Ren Yuan that has life within them has become Shao Cheng eyes at this instant.
As he tried to switch in one vision to another, Shao Cheng first saw that the person called Elder Lee has already died on his bed and without feeling any sadness, Shao Cheng instantly switch again, over and over before his lip curve up in a gentle way but chilly manner, in the entire residence only one person is currently missing.
Oh Shao Cheng is quite sure about it since he has been secretly observing everyone in case he needs to make his escape or something since no one can really know if Ren Yuan will change his mind, its a bit unbelievable but that man is just like a women in her menstrual period, you will never know how he will react the next second.
And, the missing person was Peng Pao that isn't in Ren Yuan residence right now and without a doubt, he is the person that is currently walking in the wrong path and has decided to betray Ren Yuan, supposedly allying to one of the enemies that want Ren Yuan dead.
Oh, Shao Cheng isn't surprised about it at all, many people want Ren Yuan dead in secret, he knows, since he was one of them from before after all.
Sigh, even Shao Cheng couldn't help how ironic everything his life is.
After thinking about those thoughts, without any hesitation, Shao Cheng dashes toward the blue robe young man that was still alive, he doesn't know and cares about why Peng Pao left that blue robe person life, unlike some of the hidden guards and the Elder Lee that died by poison rather than knocking out their unconsciousness, but right now, he needs to save the young man.
Oh, Shao Cheng was not being kind but because he felt worried about Ren Yuan situation, after all, that Peng Pao that has been showing hostility toward him, didn't even take his time to personally kill him but went somewhere else.
Ren Yuan is danger, great danger that is what his guts have been telling him.
In this entire world, aside from him, no one else can kill Ren Yuan, somehow, those thoughts were the first idea that flashes his mind, which he exceedingly acknowledge with all his heart which is rather surprising of how dark it was.
But even so, Shao Cheng will never change his mind no matter how twisted it was, that person can't lose to anyone else aside from him.
If Ren Yuan is to die by anyone's hand, Shao Cheng prefers that he was the one to do it than another person.
"Damn it I didn't even manage to kill you in the previous life Ren Yuan you better not die because of some unimportant person!"
Gritting his teeth, Shao Cheng sapphire eyes glint a flash of purple before his movement becomes a bit more faster, which he has neglected to notice since he deeply worries that something has definitely changed.
After all, he can sense that he was the main reason that Peng Pao is currently betraying Ren Yuan, even though Peng Pao might have also betrayed Ren Yuan in the previous life too but Shao Cheng was sure that his presence is the catalyst of it all.
"Achoo!"
Somewhere in another place, a person wearing a crimson robe along with a thick coat couldn't help but turn his head in a certain direction with a frown on his exquisite face while his nose itch a bit.
"Oh I think beauty is currently speaking about how handsome I am, don't you think so Xing Ning?"
Ren Yuan with a playful smile turns his attention back to another young man wearing a black robe which is currently grilling some meat in the burning firewood with a serious expression on his handsome face while remaining silent, not sparing Ren Yuan any attention, seemingly has gotten used to his friend teasing attitude most of the time now.
"Your no fun at all."
Sighing, Ren Yuan let out a playful whistle, soon grilled meat was given his way causing his attractive face to brighten up, somehow, he has been enjoying eating food in the past few days that he was becoming a bit addicted about it.
Quickly taking a bite at the offered food by one of his closest friends before immediately spitting it out from his mouth while his face twisting with utter disgust.
"Peh! Peh! Ah! How come this food tastes awful!"
Suddenly, Ren Yuan peach blossom grey eyes flash a bit of longing as he thought of a certain adorable amnesiac young man who always manages to makes his boring day a fun one.
"Ah! I should have bought Whitey along with me! Why did I take a boring person like you with me anyway?"
"He is weak and will get sick again while I am strong and can fight."
Xing Ning that was shown a disgust expression by his friend just answer with a matter of fact tone which doesn't contain any malicious intent within it, his expression was just someone that was speaking in a straightforward manner about what he thought about a certain thing.
"Ah, I want to get back soon and eat Whitey food!"
Ren Yuan can only sigh in regret, seemingly in consent about what his friend has just spoken since Whitey is really weak, he will surely suffer if Ren Yuan has bought him along.
Ah, Whitey so delicate and fragile, especially a bit sensitive about a certain matter, that even he was surprised about how considerate he was treating the young man.
"Be careful, we don't know who he is yet. You don't know if he will cause you difficulty later on."
"Hahaha, Ning don't worry so much! Whitey will not be able to do anything that dangerous to me even if he was a bad person! In this entire world, you know I fear only for a few. Besides, what can go wrong anyway?"
Soon in the future, Ren Yuan will be eating his words out from his mouth, when a certain delicate, fragile and weak young man in white robe will try to regularly push him down while he shakes in fear about his chastity.
But for now, Ren Yuan can only smile fearlessly, unknown about his own pitiful future.
