"Where are all of you going to, Sister Bingqing?"Stopping with the constant flattery, Yang Shen no longer called the woman an angel and instead used her name.
"Sorry boy. I can"t reveal that either."
Nodding his head, Yang Shen who was walking beside Bingqing only felt further curious about who the mysterious woman they were guarding was.
Dressed in the pair of simple training clothes that Bingqing had given him, Yang Shen continued trying his best to find out as much information about the convoy he had joined.
It was too bad that Bingqing was remaining tight lipped about all of the important details and barely shared any useful information with him.
"I can"t reveal much to you even if I want to, boy. It"s better if you wait until we reach the town we are going to take a short break in."
"Not even going to tell me the name of the town?"
Shaking her head with a bitter smile, Bingqing said, "Even though I saved you and am sure you aren"t a spy belonging to any of my lady"s enemies, I can"t reveal any details about even the direction that we are heading in."
"Seems like there"s a big shot travelling inside that palanquin."
Gazing towards the grand palanquin which was made of gold and decorated with red curtains, Yang Shen who remembered the updated quests showed a wry smile and looked away.
[Quests -
Find out the ident.i.ty of the woman inside the palanquin (Rewards: 5,000 XP and 20 Points)
Kill a Low Grade Profound Beast (Rewards: 1,500 XP and 8 Points)
Survive after provoking a Mid Grade Profound Beast (Rewards: 4,000 XP and 15 Points)
Learn to wield a weapon more suitable to you (Rewards: 1,000 XP and 5 Points)
…]
Having already experienced the quests changing when he had entered the forest and was filled with quests related to killing all sorts of beasts, skinning them, and so on, Yang Shen knew that the quests would change depending on where he was at so that his development wouldn"t be curbed.
Seeing how finding out the woman"s ident.i.ty would give him better rewards than surviving against a Mid Grade Profound Beast, which was comparable to a human in the Xiantian Realm, Yang Shen could tell that any attempt to complete it would end with him landing in a dire state.
"There"s no need to look like that. You haven"t revealed much about yourself to me either."
Smiling as he heard those words, Yang Shen slowed his pace down a little.
After all, instead of walking beside Bingqing, he"d prefer walking behind her and enjoy the view of her plump a.s.s that was attached to her slim waist.
Sure it was covered by a pair of swords and her long hair, but the view of Bingqing"s swaying b.u.t.t was still better than nothing.
"Humph! You"re one fearless one."
"Of course I am. A pervert like me needs to be bold and fearless if he wants to gaze towards the beautiful bodies of angels like you."
"Hahahahahaha, this is my first time encountering someone calling herself a pervert."
Having grown a little used to Bingqing who always spoke the truth and surprisingly didn"t feel offended even after catching him staring at her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, Yang Shen felt very curious about finding out who she was.
Women naturally enjoyed it when men paid attention to her. But this one known as Bingqing seemed more excited than a prost.i.tute who was starving for business when he talked to her or even looked at her.
Was she isolated from men while growing up or something?
Or did she possess a terrifying background which scared every man away from her?
Regardless of what it was, Yang Shen felt gratified for it because that was what made it so easy for him to approach and converse with someone as strong as her.
Looking was the only thing he dared to do though.
"Instead of staring at my a.s.s, why don"t we talk about something?"
Deliberately showing off her a.s.s by shaking it a little while as she said so, Bingqing made it impossible for one to stop staring at it.
Luckily, Yang Shen could control himself enough to stop staring at her a.s.s for a while and not to take a mile after receiving an inch.
"What does an angel like you want to talk about with a mortal like me?"
Rolling her eyes, Bingqing didn"t know why but she felt that she would never get bored of being complimented by Yang Shen.
"Hmmm… Let"s…"
…
Travelling along with Bingqing and the few hundred soldiers who were guarding the palanquin without blinking their eye twenty fours every day, Yang Shen had gotten a little closer to the woman who saved him and therefore learnt that they still had a month"s worth of travel ahead of them before reaching the town they would take a short rest in.
Not falling sleeping like he did every day by this time, Yang Shen was staring at the beautiful star filled sky.
In a cruel world like this where you could die in the blink of an eye, to Yang Shen who had survived in the wild on his own the beautiful night sky was indeed worth a second glance.
But that wasn"t what Yang Shen was doing now. His head was currently filled with countless foreign thoughts which had nothing to do with the sky, or the dazzling stars that were covering it.
Despite having survived by himself inside the dangerous forest while constantly being a.s.saulted by Profound Beasts, Yang Shen felt that he barely scratched upon learning how to utilize his true strength.
Unfortunately, there was a limit to how much he could learn by himself due to which Yang Shen could still feel that there was a long way to go before he was capable of using all the strength stored inside his body.
Also, that quest related to learning how to wield a weapon suitable for him...
