Chapter 142 Jade forest-3 (Planning)

Hearing the praises from the female disciples, a big smile formed on Qiang's face, he patiently waited for Xiao Rong to come out of her tent.

After a couple of minutes, Xiao Rong walks out, the usual cold expression displaying on her beautiful face. Seeing her Qiang felt joyous, he couldn't wait to take her as his wife. Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled through Ñôv€l--B1n.

" Good morning, Xiao. Did you get a good sleep? " Qiang asked while approaching her.

" Yes," she responded then ignoring him walks towards the rest of the disciples.

Qiang sighed, seeing her being as cold as ever, but he was already used to her behaving like that, following behind her he began to talk:

" Today we are going to search in the north area, " he paused then continued: " The disciple I had sent for scouting returned this morning. "

Xiao Rong turned and looked at him, wanting to hear more. Sensing her interest in the topic, Qiang felt happy, as he walked side by side with her while telling her the news.

" He has spotted around a dozen bandits around 6 km to the north from here, it seems that they are actually looking for something. " Qiang then waited for her to reply.

" Are they really searching for the rumoured inheritance? " she asked.

" I think that is highly likely, but it might actually be just a rumour created by them to cover up the actual thing, we can't come to a conclusion yet. " Qiang finished.

Xiao nodded and fell silent, in her mind she was thinking about the reasons the bandits were so active. Soon they both arrived at the place where all the disciples had gathered, Xiao came out of her thoughts and looked around until her eyes landed on Jayden.

He was standing some distance away while facing a different direction, Xiao stared at him as she remembered the events from the last night and the morning.

' Is he really giving up his feelings for me? ' she wondered as she remembered his words from the morning.

" I guess we really aren't destined to be together, maybe I should kiss you one last time, so I can finally let go of my feelings for you. "

Jayden's words repeated in her mind, thinking that the things that happened in the morning would be the last time she felt like them, xiao Rong felt strange she couldn't describe her feelings.

But then remembering about her marriage with Qiang that would take place in the next month, she couldn't think what to do, as she wondered if it really was something that she wanted.

" We will stay here for 20 minutes, in that time you can eat breakfast or do whatever you want if you have any problems you can come to him. " Qiang said pointing to one of the disciples.

" After 20 minutes we'll continue our journey. You can go for now," he said and then turns to Xiao Rong.

" Xiao have you eaten anything, if not then let's eat together. I've brought a lot of food with me, what do you think? " Qiang said with a small smile plastered on his face.

Xiao Rong thought for a few moments then replied: " I'm not hungry, you can go ahead and eat. " then she walks away without looking back.

The smile from Qiang's face disappeared immediately, he lost his appetite and felt both sad and angry, even though he was being so sincere, she never looked at him the same way he did.

After she disappeared from his sight, Qiang looked around and his eyes landed on Jayden who was sitting on a tree branch and eating something.

' Whether there is anything between you two or not, Wang Jin you will have to die in this mission. ' he thought and decided to look for Peng instead of eating.

After searching for a few seconds, Qiang found Peng flirting with a female disciple. Walking towards him, Qiang called out:

" Peng, I need to talk to you, come with me. " while speaking he nodded towards the girl with a smile.

" Even if your arm was fine, you wouldn't have been of any help, so it's not a problem you can just follow us and enjoy the show. " Qiang commented sarcastically, a smile full of ridicule on his face.

" Okay, I'll do that. " Jayden replied.

" Let's continue our mission, remember today is not going to be as relaxing as it was yesterday, so be alert at all moments. " Qiang announced and turned towards the north direction.

All the disciples were excited about the new day's adventure, they looked around and talked in hushed tones.

...

" Ahhhhhh i-it bit meeee- "

After walking for more than an hour, suddenly one of the disciples in the group shouted, he fell to the ground and began to roll while clutching his leg.

Everyone stopped in their tracks, they moved away from the disciple who was on the verge of crying, Qiang walked up to him and asked:

" What's wrong? Why is he acting like that? "

" I saw that snake biting his leg, and then he began to scream. " one of the nearby disciples summarized.

Hearing it, Qiang looked around and soon saw a snake with red lines and a strange patterns all over its body, he squinted his eyes and focused on the snake.

After a moment he sighed and spoke to the disciple who was about to take his last breath:

" Get up, that snake isn't even venomous, why are you pretending? "

Listening to Qiang's words, the disciples stopped his tantrum and slowly stood up, he closed his eyes and observed his body's condition. Then his face turned red in embarrassment, as he spoke:

" Sorry senior brother, I acted like that because I'm afraid of snakes. "

" Don't worry, just be more careful the next time. " Qiang said while patting his shoulder, in a charming tone.

And soon words of flattery were showered onto him from all directions, and following the strange habit of his, he turned to glance at Xiao, hoping to get any reaction from her. But as usual was instantly disappointed by the look of disinterest on Xiao Rong's face.

He sighed again and announced: " Let's continue, we might come across the bandits soon so don't talk loudly. "

Then they began to head further north, Jayden was feeling bored walking at such a slow pace and doing nothing. He decided to spice things up slightly, using the Void skill, he sensed the area around him.

There were 11 bandits resting, almost 1 km away from their current location. They were so relaxed that if someone was to sneak up on them they would all be killed easily. Maybe it was because the jade forest was the territory of the Red Arm bandits, but they weren't worried about anything.

Jayden decided to give these poor souls a helping hand, he teleported one of the bandits to their location. The bandit was relaxing just a moment ago under the shade of a tall tree and suddenly found himself somewhere else.

He looked around in confusion then his eyes landed on the group of 30 disciples, he was surprised and thought: ' I need to inform about this to others as soon as possible. '

But he couldn't locate himself and didn't know the way back, since one person in their group had the job to remember the forest so he never bothered with learning about the various locations in the forest.

Seeing that the bandit was not moving and was just looking around confusedly, Jayden sighed and decided to help him one last time.

' Go, inform others, it would be more fun that way. '
