Chapter 437: Something's Not Right [Two in One]

The sword gale roared.

Yan Bei Han's long sword suddenly unleashed a piercing heaven-reaching sword aura, and she soared like a meteor, holding the sword in one hand and grabbing onto Fang Che's belt with the other.

Whoosh...

In an instant, they covered a distance of five hundred zhang!

Suddenly, a bright light appeared before their eyes, and they had already broken through the encirclement of the centipede swarm.

In front of them, the sky was blue, and the clouds were white, with red flowers and green trees.

Yan Bei Han's heart stirred. It turned out that Fang Che had already covered nine-tenths of the distance!

The sword light flashed, like a rainbow across the sky.

With Yan Bei Han and Fang Che's bodies, they flashed in the sky and instantly reached the mountain peak. Then, they flashed again and plummeted downward, leaving no trace.

Behind them, the sky was filled with flying centipedes, their wings flapping furiously in pursuit, creating a deafening sound like thunder.

Beyond the mountain peak was a cliff, and Yan Bei Han didn't hesitate. She headed straight towards the bottom of the cliff, falling madly.

She knew that in such terrain, it was easier to find water sources at the bottom of cliffs or not far from them.

Indeed, there was a water source below.

Just before they reached the bottom of their fall, they saw a vast expanse of shimmering water ahead.

Yan Bei Han did not directly plunge into the water.

Instead, she continued to ride the sword light, charging towards the water's surface thousands of zhang away.

This was an incredibly vast lake.

The depth of the water was unknown.

"Is this far enough?"

Yan Bei Han asked.

"Down!"

Fang Che issued the command.

The sword light flashed, and they plunged directly from the sky into the water. The water's surface rippled slightly, and with a giant bear following, they entered the water, and the sword aura continued to split the water layer as they descended.

Before them, the water rippled with a greenish hue.

The sword aura plunged to a depth of a hundred zhang below the water's surface.

Only then did Fang Che take over control. He swung his legs, and a whirlpool formed behind them as they shot forward like a giant torpedo.

Yan Bei Han let out a sigh of relief, and with a 'puh' sound, she exhaled a breath she had been holding in her chest, and a string of bubbles rose.

The bubbles hadn't even reached the surface when they had already traveled thousands of zhang away.

Behind them.

In the air.

Countless flying centipedes had arrived above the water, swirling around in chaos.

They had lost their target.

The water flow had cut off all their senses.

Boom... The giant pythons rudely smashed into the water, and then, like dozens of warships, they surged forward, chasing towards their prey."

The entire lake bottom was filled with giant pythons, all following the lead.

In the distance, on the opposite shore of the vast lake, a giant white tiger suddenly leaped onto a mountain peak. It shook its snowy white fur, and the silver-bright wavelets rippled like rolling layers. With a roar, it seemed to be issuing a warning.

In an instant, the tiger's roar shook the void, and the space seemed to crack, forming countless dark and mottled spatial rifts that crisscrossed and then vanished.

It seemed to be warning them.

"Don't come over! This is our territory!"

In the lake, the giant pythons that had been swimming suddenly stopped.

Looking at the distant mountain forest, where silver-bright light was surging, the giant pythons' huge eyes flashed with a wary expression.

After a long while, they turned around and swam back.

Under the threat of the giant white tiger, the giant pythons actually gave up the pursuit.

But all of this, Fang Che and Yan Bei Han, who were still at the lake bottom, didn't know yet.

They were still desperately rushing forward.

Yan Bei Han had been flying with her sword for a long time, and now, she continued to fly with her sword in the water. At this moment, the air in her lungs was almost depleted.

Holding onto Fang Che's hand, she pinched a piece of flesh on his waist with two fingers and twisted hard...

Fang Che only felt a familiar pain surge through him, and he almost cried out in the water.

This familiarity made him almost think that the night demon had followed him...

Turning his head to look... Oh, it's Yan Bei Han.

Instantly, his heart was filled with endless emotion: Women, indeed, are very mysterious. They have so many skills, and they are all innate.

For example, this move of twisting the soft flesh on the waist... According to Fang Che's knowledge, this is a heaven-granted skill.

Fang Che turned his head, and seeing Yan Bei Han's cheeks puffed up like a little hamster, he couldn't help but laugh. It was as if her cheeks were stuffed so full they were wider than her head.

Her face was filled with embarrassment.

Fang Che instantly became happy, raising his eyebrows and making a devilish face.

Yan Bei Han glared at him with puffed-up cheeks, and then she shook her head, indicating: No way!

Fang Che's eyes turned, and he opened his mouth, blowing a bubble.

Then he pouted.

His eyes blinked, indicating: Should I give you a breath?

Yan Bei Han shook her head vigorously, and with another twist, this time more severe, twisting half a circle, and her eyes warned: I know you have a way.

Fang Che's entire body jerkily, his eyes rolling in anger—it hurt!

His face twisted in pain.

With a thought, his feet swayed, and his wrists circled.

Instantly, the water in front of him parted, revealing a blank space the size of a watermelon.

Then... the water collided, and countless bubbles rose, entering this blank space.

Yan Beihan stared at him, not understanding his intentions.

Fang Che pressed down on Yan Beihan's head, pushing it into the blank space.

Before Yan Beihan could even feel angry, she realized: Huh? No water?

She exhaled, and in one breath, she discovered that the air here was pure!

Greedily inhaling twice, she suddenly felt her entire body come alive.

It felt good.

Only then did he remove his fingers from her soft waist.

Fang Che sighed in relief and continued forward.

He turned to look at Yan Beihan, a little angry.

This little girl had just twisted his waist so painfully...

Her waist must have turned blue from the force.

Without punishment, it was simply inexcusable.

He had to hit her!

So he accelerated again.

Then the water waves started slapping Yan Beihan's buttocks, with great force.

"..."

Underwater, Yan Beihan couldn't speak, her tender buttocks being slapped with a loud 'pa pa' sound. The powerful impact made her face flush, and she tightly grabbed a piece of Fang Che's flesh, about to exert force.

But...

'Pa pa pa pa...'

The impact from behind suddenly increased in strength, causing her body to tremble with each slap.

A strange feeling arose, and Yan Beihan couldn't describe what she was feeling. It was novel, not painful, but... very strange.

She couldn't help but feel her whole body heating up.

She went a little soft.

Biting her teeth tightly, she controlled the urge to moan from her throat, and let go of Fang Che's flesh.

Instantly, the force of the impact lessened.

Yan Beihan sighed in relief.

She bit a strand of hair and held it in her mouth, glaring at Fang Che.

Night Demon, just you wait!

You big jerk!

It must be said that Yan Beihan was clever, her intelligence and wit were more than sufficient, and her mind and combat power were all top-notch. However, when it came to cursing... she truly had no experience.

There was nothing much to say.

She hadn't even heard any foul language, let alone uttering it herself. Moreover, due to her own status, in this aspect, she could be considered relatively pure.

So, Miss Yan's curses in this lifetime were nothing more than: Bastard! Jerk! Damn it! Bloody... and so on.

When it came to cursing...

Compared to Fang Che's vocabulary, Yan Beihan's was like that of a kindergarten kid standing before a university student.

So towering!

'Pa pa pa pa...'

Yan Beihan was slapped by the vengeful Fang Che for half an hour.

At first, Yan Beihan glared and gritted her teeth, her eyes fierce.

But later, she actually lowered her head, as if accepting this fate, getting used to it; she had no reaction at all, just holding onto Fang Che's belt.

As they swam forward...

Or rather, as Fang Che dragged her...

Her slender body seemed to have no strength at all.

All the way until they reached the shore.

Fang Che leaped onto the shore.

Behind him, there was a 'hua la' sound, and Yan Beihan also emerged, her hair disheveled, panting heavily.

She grabbed a small tree on the shore with one hand, her head lowered, and her underwater body trembled slightly.

From Fang Che's angle, Yan Beihan's drooping eyes seemed to have water in them... she bit her lips tightly.

Fang Che found it odd: "Why didn't you come up?"

Yan Beihan didn't reply, just lowering her head and panting, letting go of her lips.

But her full lips, there was also a slight tremble.

When she heard Fang Che's question, not speaking.

After a while, as Fang Che was about to ask a second question, Yan Beihan finally spoke in an ice-cold voice: "You stay away!"

"Stay away?"

Fang Che glared, then suddenly realized: "Oh... oh..."

Yes, the girl's whole body was wet, and suddenly coming out of the water, her slender curves were exposed in front of him... it was indeed a bit indecent.

Moreover, during this period of contact, he also discovered that Yan Beihan's skin was extremely thin.

He couldn't help but smile and say: "Then I'll go ahead and check out the terrain."

Fang Che thought he was being 'tactful', so he immediately turned and left.

He walked quite far before scratching his head, suddenly remembering the last time he pulled Yan Beihan out of the water, her clothes had automatically dried when she emerged.

There was no need to worry about any exposure issues.

What happened this time?

...

The shore.

After Fang Che left, Yan Beihan finally relaxed, her tender white hands unable to even hold onto the small tree, slipping back into the water with a 'shh' sound.

She even choked on some water.

Then she emerged from the water again, her face flushed, her eyes dazed, and she muttered angrily: "Jerk... jerk..."

She didn't know what she was cursing.

She only knew her legs had no strength, and her whole body felt paralyzed.

And there was also that strange feeling.

This caused her to have to wash in the water before she felt her whole body recover a bit.

Finally, with a splash, she reached the shore.

Leaning against a tree, she caught her breath.

Then, with her divine sense, she clearly felt Fang Che several dozen zhang away, and only then did she feel at ease.

With swift speed, she removed her clothes and quickly changed into a set of innerwear, then put on her outer robe. Her heart was still pounding, but it had also calmed down considerably.

"Damn Night Demon!"

Yan Beihan cursed in a crimson voice, "Bloody Fang Che!"

"Damn it!"

Muttering curses for a while, she only felt her pounding heart gradually calming down, and her legs slowly regaining strength. Then, she suddenly remembered: I can recover by practicing my cultivation.

I actually forgot!

"Damn it!"

She quickly practiced her cultivation.

Her entire body felt refreshed once again.

Then, she picked up Little Bear and waved her palm, smacking it hard on Little Bear's buttocks, "You heartless jerk, seeing me being bullied and not helping me!"

Little Bear cried out in pain, its eyes wide with shock.

What does this have to do with me? This is purely a disaster...

After Little Bear let out a breath, Yan Beihan hummed and walked forward.

However, involuntarily, she turned back to look at the vast lake surface, a blush flashing across her face... It seemed that, hidden within, there was a hint of expectation... wanting to do it again...

"What am I thinking!"

Yan Beihan sternly stopped herself from going further.

Then, she went to find Fang Che.

At this moment, she and Fang Che were completely unaware that since they had landed on this side of the land, they had already entered the territory of the powerful White Tiger.

...

Fang Che felt that Yan Beihan seemed to have changed.

She had become more fierce, colder, and more intimidating.

Those eyes, as if wanting to tear him apart, yet also seemed to carry a hint of some other strange feeling.

But it was just a feeling...

Her expression was cold and distant, her demeanor icy, looking down from above, commanding.

She had actually regained the demeanor of a miss from the Only Me Religion.

Her posture was full of authority, yet also carried a hint of sternness and weakness.

So fierce it was life-threatening, yet also carried a hint of cuteness.

Fang Che was completely bewitched.

What kind of posture is this, old man?

Moreover, her address towards him had also changed, becoming less polite and more impolite.

"Hey, Mr. Fang!"

Yan Beihan's face turned cold, her brows furrowed as she tried to fill her eyes with killing intent. With a demanding attitude, she said, "You've been cutting trees for so long, and you still haven't gone to cook? Also, as a big man, you let me help you cut trees, and you still don't have any dignity?"

Fang Che scratched his head.

Spreading his hands, he said innocently, "Miss Yan, please understand, first of all, I'm a guardian, and you're from the Only Me Religion. We're in hostile relations. It's just a temporary cooperative relationship within the Yin Yang Realm."

"Secondly, I'm not your servant, nor am I your subordinate. I don't need to accept your orders."

"Thirdly, inside here, we all want to survive and also want to maintain a bit of quality of life. This has nothing to do with men and women, and everyone is responsible for their own matters. There's no issue of serving anyone, nor does it have anything to do with dignity."

Yan Beihan's eyes narrowed, and she said calmly, "Fourthly?"

"There's no fourth point."

Fang Che said, "So..."

"So, let's spar!"

Yan Beihan's killing intent surged, and with a swish, she drew her sword.

Without another word, she charged over.

"Wait! I'll go cook..."

Fang Che immediately shouted.

However, it was too late.

Before today, Fang Che would soften at once, and Yan Beihan would stop, as the purpose of intimidation had been achieved. But today, Fang Che's show of weakness had no effect.

Yan Beihan gave him a thorough beating.

Once again, she beat him to the point where he couldn't even lift a finger lying on the ground.

Moreover, this time, she beat him especially hard.

Then, Yan Beihan seemed to be in a good mood and actually started taking out resources and cooking.

Fang Che lay on the ground, only feeling bewildered: "???"

This was truly like a monk groping in the dark.

Half a day later.

Yan Beihan finished cooking, ate by herself, and fed Little Bear before saying coldly, "What you said is correct. Inside here, everyone has to rely on themselves!"

After speaking, she actually got up to work, setting up her own little home.

Fang Che's eyes widened in circles: You're saying it's correct, and you still beat me? Supporting his body, he walked over to take a look, and there was indeed a meal left uneaten, seemingly prepared for him? Such kindness?

Fang Che started eating directly.

As he ate, he wondered, has this witch's brain gone bad? After beating me so hard, she actually left a meal for me.

Is this a pattern of beating someone and then giving them a sweet date?

"The taste of the meal is not bad."

After eating someone else's food, Fang Che felt that as a man, he should be more broad-minded, after all, the current environment required them to stick together for warmth.

So, he decided to temporarily forgive her once and took the initiative to strike up a conversation.

"Hey, you, a dignified guardian, actually eating a witch's food, not afraid of being poisoned to death."

Yan Beihan said lightly.

"We're in a cooperative relationship." Fang Che's expression was serious and solemn.

"Hehe..." Yan Bei Han mocked, "A witch from the Only Righteous Sect like me can also cooperate with the Guardian? What an honor."

When did this girl awaken this Yin-Yang Temperament ability?

Fang Che patrolled and tried to strike up a conversation, but as expected, he faced merciless ridicule.

So, he decisively retreated.

Returning to the boys' area, he began to contemplate.

This girl must have something strange going on.

However, after thinking about it, he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong. Could it be because he slapped her buttocks with wavelets?

It's unlikely she'd be so petty, right? He had done it before, and nothing happened.

Fang Che furrowed his brows in thought, feeling a sense of urgency. He found a large tree, undid his pants, and took out...

"Can't you build a toilet?"

A cold, disdainful voice sounded, "Are all Guardians this crude?"

Unperturbed, Fang Che calmly released a clear water stream, showing no signs of embarrassment. "Miss Yan, we can only stay here safely for five days before we have to fight and flee again... Do you think a toilet is that necessary?"

He casually shook off the water, put away his treasure, and with a wave of his hand, a spirit water stream cleaned his hands. "Moreover... In the previous times, I don't recall seeing Miss Yan ever building a toilet. It's just a flower patch blocking the view..."

The sound of a sword being drawn rang out.

Yan Bei Han's voice carried fury and extreme embarrassment, "Pervert... You... you actually peeped!"

He couldn't take this accusation.

Fang Che hurriedly explained, "I was just passing by during the fight... and I smelled it..."

Whoosh...

The sword light descended like a suspended heavenly river.

Enraged and at the peak of embarrassment, Yan Bei Han completely exploded.

Fang Che immediately fled with all his might, sprinting to the shore, leaping into the water, and diving deep.

This time, he seemed to have truly provoked this mother tiger. Staying here to spar could risk his life.

Yan Bei Han stood on the shore, her fury causing the lake water to surge into mountainous waves.

Fang Che hid in the lake for an entire day and night before sneaking away.

To his surprise, Yan Bei Han had almost finished constructing her facilities.

And... incredibly, her anger had dissipated.

Seeing that Fang Che wasn't calling for a fight, Little Bear whined and approached for a hug, but Yan Bei Han didn't stop him.

She simply ignored them.

Fang Che breathed a sigh of relief and quickly found a spot to set up his tent.

Then, he took care of the necessary tasks and observed the environment, first securing an escape route.

Only then did he realize that the entire forest was eerily quiet.

It felt like dead silence.

Aside from the wind, the rustling of leaves, and their own voices, there was nothing else to be heard.

Fang Che furrowed his brows and immediately began to investigate.

There were no birds.

No mosquitoes.

No centipedes.

No snakes.

Not even...

In the soil, there weren't any earthworms.

But... this land was full of vigor.

Fang Che instantly felt a bone-chilling sense of danger. His hairs stood on end, and he couldn't describe the horror he felt.

He rushed out.

Yan Bei Han was constructing her toilet and bathroom.

As a woman who valued cleanliness, these facilities were a must, even if she was only staying for three days. Especially after being mocked...

"Wait a moment."

Fang Che approached, his voice deep.

"What's the matter?" The cold voice asked.

"Something's not right. It's too quiet, and there aren't any living creatures."

Fang Che spoke solemnly, "Perhaps you noticed but didn't pay attention... Have you heard any bird calls? Seen any birds or flying insects? Any crawling creatures, including earthworms in the soil... Are there any?"

Yan Bei Han's delicate and pretty face gradually turned serious. She furrowed her brows, thought for a moment, and immediately replied, "No."

The two locked eyes.

Both saw the intense sense of danger in each other's eyes.

Something's wrong!

It's very wrong!

"It's not because of poison! There's no poison here!"

Yan Bei Han made the first judgment, speaking with certainty.

The hearts of the two sank simultaneously, and their faces turned extremely pale.

If it were poison, the situation would be easier to handle.

Both had countless means to overcome the crisis, but if it wasn't poison, the danger increased a thousandfold!

Because it must be due to a special reason, and this special reason, whether it's an unknown existence, the heavens and earth, or a powerful monster beast...

All these scenarios were hundreds of times more severe. Moreover, with their current weak strength, they had no assurance of escaping with their lives.

They didn't even have a target to defend against.

"You go left, I'll go right. Circle around for two hundred li, and meet up two hundred li away."

Fang Che immediately made a decision.

"Okay."

Yan Bei Han agreed without hesitation. She understood that Fang Che's decision wasn't just for them to circle around. It was to investigate any abnormalities in their respective half-circle areas.

Currently, this two-hundred-li area was their temporary safe zone. Any further, and they might not even have time to escape into the water.
