Yu Xiang's eyes were wide open in shock as he fell forward.It was as if he couldn't believe that he had died in the end. This was the same for all of the others as none of them had expected to be killed like this. All of them thought that this would be a simple job, but it turned out to be anything but that. After stabbing Yu Xiang in the back of the neck like this, I just pulled the dagger that I was holding back and calmly shook the blood off the dagger. Without even blinking an eye, I put the dagger back into the Storage Ring. I didn't bother looking at Yu Xiang's corpse as I turned to look at the girl who was sitting in the center of the clearing. She had her hands at her chest, almost as if she was guarding herself. The look on her face made it clear that she was afraid of me, or rather she was afraid of what I just did. I wouldn't blame her since I would be scared too in her situation. So with a simple nod to her, I turned around to leave. There was a dazed look that appeared on the girl's face before she suddenly sat up and said, "Wait, don't go." When she said this, I suddenly stopped and turned around to look at her again. The girl just looked at me in a dazed manner again, as if she didn't know what to say. There was still a trace of fear that was on her face, but that was only normal since she didn't know what this situation was. During this, I got a good look at the girl. She was a girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, showing that she was a foreigner. However, she really was a beautiful girl with her long lush blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, and fair skin. If she was just standing out in public, one would imagine that she was a model. At the same time, when her hands came to her chest…it really accentuated it and she wasn't small at all. It was completely different from my childhood friend, Long Tang Tang. After a moment of silence, I said, "Are you alright?" The girl was a bit surprised to hear me ask this, but then she slowly shook her head before saying, "My legs are completely out of energy and I can't stand up at all." I gave a simple nod before stepping forward slowly. While doing so, I said, "I'm going to approach you now, is that alright?" The girl looked at me silently for a bit before slowly giving a nod. When I came over, I reached my hand out for her to take. The girl hesitantly reached her hand out, but she took my hand in the end and I helped her stand up. At the same time, one of the Fanged Wolves came over since I gave them a signal. I helped her over to the Fanged Wolf and helped her get on the back of the Fanged Wolf before saying, "We need to leave this place first." The girl slowly gave a nod again. With that, I got on the back of the other Fanged Wolf and we left this clearing that still had all the corpses in it behind. After traveling for a bit, I stopped by a cave that the Fanged Wolves found. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This cave had a small creek and pond in front of it, so this was the perfect place to rest. I helped the girl down from the Fanged Wolf and then over to the cave before getting some water for her from the pond. Only after she had some water and calmed down did she let out a sigh of relief. It was the kind of relief that one would have when they realized that they had just escaped death. Even though she let out this sigh, I didn't say anything as I waited for her to recover. After a while, the girl finally calmed down again and she turned to look at me to ask, "Who are you?" I had expected this since that was certainly the first question that she would have in this situation. With a calm look on my face, I said, "Would you believe me if I said that I'm someone that was just passing by and heard that you were in danger?" The girl immediately knitted her brows as I expected, but I just looked back at her with a calm look on my face. After another silence, she raised a brow and asked, "Are you really not someone that my father sent to watch over me?" "Your father?" I asked in a confused voice. I didn't know anything about this girl, so naturally I didn't know anything about her father either. So even if she asked if I was sent by her father, it wasn't as if there was anything that I could say to that. She looked even more surprised to hear this and then she narrowed her eyes to look at me as if she was scrutinizing me, but there was nothing that I had to hide from her since I was telling the truth. There was another long silence that hung in the air before she finally stopped looking at me like she was scrutinizing me. She lowered her head and said in what seemed to be a shy voice, "Thank you for saving me." I gave a simple nod in response. "What is your name?" She said while looking up slightly, as if she was feeling shy. "Lin Fan." I had no reason to hide my name from her since I had helped her. I didn't think that she was the kind of person that would pay kindness with a dagger to the back. "Lin Fan." She seemed to repeat under her breath before suddenly saying, "My name is Iris, but you can call me Wei Wei, that's my nickname." As she said this, there was a smile that appeared on her face that seemed like the sun was rising that completely caught me off guard. She was already beautiful when she didn't have any expressions, but when she suddenly revealed a smile like this…
