She walked in front without saying a word. Hong Yan didn't know why he was angry, so she just lowered her head and followed behind him silently, like a little wife who had been wronged.
When they arrived at the inn, the whirlwind was still angry. He glared at Hongyan and walked into the room. Hongyan followed him without saying a word.
"Do you know what you did wrong today?”
Tornado said expressionlessly, but who knew that he was trying his best to suppress his anger.
"Please instruct me, Tornado."
The veins on the back of his hand suddenly popped up. After enduring it for a while, he finally suppressed his anger and said in a low voice,"Hongyan, what did you promise me before I left? If I don't come back, you can't go out, but what about you? Do you know how anxious I was at that time? This is the first. Secondly, you're a woman in the martial arts world. Why aren't you vigilant at all? I've been following you for so long, why didn't you feel anything? If it was someone else who followed you today, you wouldn't have died even if you had a hundred lives. Thirdly, and most importantly, how can you use the Yang Sword? Do you know how many people want to kill you?”
When Hong Yan heard this, not only was she not angry, she even became more relaxed. He sat down and poured himself a glass of water. After drinking it in one gulp, he said slowly,"Let me explain first. You're right. I did promise to wait for you to come back, but you have to think about the situation at that time. When those guys come, I'll just lie on the bed and let them hack me? Sorry, I, Hongyan, can't do it. Second, I pretended not to notice it because you were the one who was following me. If it was someone else, he would have died when he was sure that he was following me. I, Hongyan, am not a young girl who has just entered Jianghu. Even if I am, I can definitely save him with my martial arts. Thirdly, I admit that I was wrong and lacked consideration. However, you have to know that swords are used for self-defense, not for decoration. Even if I don't use them today, I will use them when I'm in a desperate situation in the future. In the end, I will still know what I should know. Why should I wait until I'm in a desperate situation to use them? Moreover, if they want to take something from me, they have to see if they have the ability.”
"Hongyan, your weakness is that you're too conceited.”
Whirlwind's voice obviously slowed down. What she said made sense. Hong Yan was not an unreasonable person. Whirlwind was doing this for her own good and was concerned about her. Apart from her senior brothers and sisters, Cyclone was the first person who truly cared about her. This made her very touched, and she secretly warned herself to protect her hard-earned friendship.
"Tornado, I know you care about me. I'm very happy, really.”
"Hongyan…can you tell me about your background?”
"My background? My background is very simple. I'm an orphan and was taken in by Master since I was young. All of us are like that. Master is my family.”
"Come here."
Tornado suddenly thought of something and waved at Hongyan, who was sitting opposite him, signaling her to come over.
"What is it?"
Although she didn't know why he called her, she still walked over obediently. Unexpectedly, just as she walked up to him, he stood up and said to her,"Sit on the bed and let me take a look at your foot. After walking so much, the wound must have opened again.”
"What's a small injury worth mentioning? As for you, your injuries are much more serious than mine.”
Hong Yan said it very casually. To her, this small wound was really nothing. She didn't even see the real big wound. A sword wound snaked from her chest to her abdomen. It was simply an opening wound.
"If you don't apply medicine on a small wound, it'll be bad when it gets serious. Also, has the poison in your body been cured?”
Thinking of the poison in her body, his heart ached badly. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have been poisoned.
"I've already solved it long ago. Otherwise, would those guys still be alive to run so far?”
"What do you mean?"
Whirlwind seemed to be hinting at something. Was there something else?
"Forget it, I'll tell you all at once. It's already over anyway. Jie Mandala consumed the most internal strength. Therefore, after the poison was detoxified, the internal energy would disappear within two hours. As long as this time passed, the internal energy would be restored. At that time, the internal energy would be even more powerful than before, so this time was the most dangerous.”
"Damn it, you stupid woman who doesn't know what's good for you. How dare you hide such an important piece of information from me. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have left until your internal energy recovered.”
He was so angry that he punched the table. The table cracked. Hong Yan was stunned. She had never seen him lose control like this.
"And then?"
Obviously, he realized that he had lost his composure. He cleared his throat and continued asking to divert her attention. Looking at her, she couldn't have been scared silly by him, right?
"Then, those guys came at the right time. Just when I was half an hour away from recovering my internal energy, those guys came to find me. I knew I couldn't win, so I jumped out of the window and ran.”
"Why didn't you go through the door and go through the window?”
Tornado's anger, which had just disappeared, burned again and roared at her.
"This is an inn, not your own home. There are so many people coming and going outside. It wouldn't be good to hurt the innocent.”
Cyclone did not say anything more. He just walked forward and opened his arms to gently embrace her as if he was treating a treasure, afraid that he would hurt her.
"Maybe their luck was really bad. I realized that I could use my internal energy not long after my feet touched the ground. Once my internal energy recovered, how could those guys be my match? I beat nearly half of them down, and the other half saw that something was wrong and ran away. I, Hongyan, want to kill them. How can I let them escape? They seemed to have accomplices in the direction they ran, so I quietly followed behind them. You know what happened after that.”
"Promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you must tell me. If there are any difficulties, we will face them together. Just like this time, if you tell me in advance, I will hide in the dark. Once they come, there is no need for you to do anything. However, is it really okay for you to recover your internal energy in advance?”
"Don't worry, I'm fine now. If I am, I probably have to wait for a long time. I can't care so much now. Didn't you say that a large number of people are coming to kill me? Then why don't we rest quickly and set off at dawn tomorrow? Are we going to wait for them to come?”
"Alright then, have a good rest. If there's anything, call me. My room is next to yours. Just call me softly and I'll come over immediately.”
"Got it. It's getting late. You should rest early.”
Tornado reluctantly let go of her and walked out of the room, not forgetting to close the door.
