Chapter 5 - 5. To The Southern Forest
"But I..cough cough….I can't walk in this condition." Le Fangling pointed at her tattered body and clutched her chest when the suffocating feeling returned once again. Covering her mouth, she once again coughed violently.
'Hey, am I going to die like this?' Stretching out the blood covered hand in front of her, she asked in a tiny voice to the system while she limply lied on the ground due to the immobilization.
"….", <Stop acting like you are about to die, host>
<With me here, you can't did unless you are foolish enough to get yourself killed.>
"Heh, you are kind missy." Le Fangling laughed inside her head complementing the system that sounded like a loli girl from anime.
Although the mechanical voice was cold and harsh, What it said made Le Fangling feel a little bit happy.
Hearing the rustle of the hay inside the shed, Da Fu and Wu Cheng who were standing guard outside the door got alert and peeked inside the shed.
"Miss, Do you want us to help you?' Da Fu came forward in large stride and stood in front of Le Fangling.
'Right, I am a miss here.' Le Fangling sighed and looked at the mountain like tall people before her.
"I want to go somewhere. Can you take me there?" Without much expression Le Fangling looked at Da Fu.
"What about your injuries?" He asked with a worried face. Although he had been silent all this time he was concerned about her injury.
"I will get them treated soon, for now, help me get to the southern forest. Real quick." Le fangling was not able to walk all that distance by herself.
"The southern forest? Isn't it where the forbidden pond is sealed?" Wu Cheng who was probing in to their conversations spoke when he heard the name of southern pond and sealed area inside the forest.
'Oii…what are they talking about? It's forbidden?' Le Fangling asked the system who in response said nothing.
'Wow, selfish guy, speaking when he wants and keeping silent when it doesn't wants,…"
"Yes, I have an important task there." Le Fangling thought for a while before speaking again. "Please keep this matter a secret from the elder brother."
She knew if that scum bag found out even a spec of dirt on her he will say he found a pile fo dung on her in exaggeration.
"I…." If Laoling asked about her then they will have to open their mouth so they were not sure about promising her.
"We will try our best." Da Fu bowed down and extended his hands in front of Le Fangling.
"…", What are you doing kneeling on the ground like that?
His postures seemed identical to somehow a man proposing his bride and that brought back unpleasant memories to her.
"This humble servants requests to get permission to carry the young lady."
"Ohh...okay, lift me up." Le Fangling allowed Da Fu to come over and carry her.
<Heavenly sensation ability has been activated.>
<Target: Da Fu>
[Hostility: 10%
Empathy: 45%
Sympathy: 90%
Malice: 1%
Bloodlust: 20%]
<The data has been analyzed: The host can trust this human.>
Only after getting the green flag from the system, Le Fangling allowed herself to be carried in a freaking bridal carry.
With Da Fu carrying Le Fangling in a princess carry, they exited the mushy smelling dark shed.
'It's just a princess carry, nothing more, Be happy you are still alive idiot.' The then male, now female Le Fangling consoled her broken heart.
Once outside from the wretched shed, Le Fangling took a long breathe filling his lungs to the brim. She smiled unconsciously at the fragrant floral scent that filled his lungs. She could never forget this fragrance even after her death.
"Cherry blossoms…." A blessed smile appeared on her face. She unwillingly let out her breathe with a deep sigh. "I missed this scent."
"I finally saw you smile, young miss." Da Fu honestly was mesmerized by her pure looking smile despite her face looking like a scrunched piece of metal can.
"I never smiled before?" Le Fangling was surprised when she heard the remark from the guard. It made her wonder what kind of hellish life the body had been living before she took over.
"In the one month time that you have come here, its my first time seeing the young miss smiling." Da Fu nodded his head answering her.
'Bingo!' Le Fangling got another important piece of information.
"Da Fu, Who is this Grandmaster Lan?" Curiously, Le Fangling asked the man carrying her.
"Grandmaster Lan, they called him right?" He remembered this name. After all it was this name that saved him.
"Hmm...Grandmaster Lan? He is the friend of the old master of the Le Family but he belongs to the Eternal Blossom Sect in the north."
"I am not sure why is he here at this time though. I thought he would be busy with recruiting new disciples." Da fu was thoughtful for a while.
"But don't you know this already?" He gave a weird look to Le Fangling.
"I know, its just that my memory has been a bit fuzzy these past few days." Le Fangling hurriedly averted her gaze and answered calmly.
This man is sharp.
'Oof...' Le Fangling breathed out the breathe she had been holding in.
<Good, extract all the information you can with that naïve tone and pretty face.>
"….", Le Fangling made a face at the system who seeemes to be enjoying at this point.
'What about you? Don't you know about him?' She wanted to check if the system was omnipotent and all-seeing divine entity.
<No, I can't. I am assigned to host so I can only see your information as long as its connected to you in any way.>
.
<I can't assign you any levelling up task that can highly favor you.>
The system laxly said as if it drinking a cup of coffee when it answered Le Fangling.
.
<I can see the world information but not the hidden information until it's authorised to me. I have my own restrictions.>
The mechanical voice of the system echoed in his brain once again.
"I figured it out. If you were a know all system you will probably be socially boycotted by other systems." Le Fangling made a joke in her head but the system did not even let out a snort.
*Sigh*
'Hmm…okay…then I guess I have to meet this person.'
'If his name alone can make them quiver in fear, I wonder how he is in real life?'
She was looking forward to meet whoever this person was.
