Ch141 - Yuyang Appears

Night fell.

The procession stopped to rest at the foot of a mountain. After dinner, Yan Tianhen used the excuse of personal problems to disappear behind a dune while no one was paying attention.

Behind the mound stood a figure with a straight back, dressed in a black robe which helped him blend into the night.

Yan Tianhen's gaze actually fell upon this person's feet.

With embroidered cloud motifs, the Piercing Cloud Boots looked novel and beautiful, with exquisite workmanship. They emanated the aura of a high grade magic treasure, enough to make people's eyes green with jealousy.

Yan Tianhen said with a taut face, "Ah Gu, when did my Dage give you those boots?"

Ling Chigu had no monetary or material needs, he didn't care much about wearing or not wearing clothes. There was no way that he would have gotten those shoes on his own, they could only have been given by Lin Xuanzhi.

Ling Chigu stared back unblinkingly.

Yan Tianhen squinted at him for a bit and then sighed. "Never mind, I forgot that you only know how to follow my orders. You are not yet capable of speaking or expressing your opinions. But the next time my brother gives you something, you have to tell me."

Ling Chigu continued to stare for a moment, then squatted down and immediately started removing his boots.

Yan Tianhen was shocked; he quickly squatted down and patted Ling Chigu on the shoulder. "I didn't want to try and take it from you, I just... just... ah, I wanted to know what he had given you so I could ask him to make another one for me tomorrow."

Yan Tianhen showed a little shame after saying that.

After thinking about it again, his brother really was a very busy person, yet he actually had the nerve to take up more of his time? It was true that Lin Xuanzhi treated him very well, but it wasn't something that could be taken for granted. He never did anything for him, so where did he get the guts to ask Lin Xuanzhi to fulfill his requests?

Yan Tianhen scratched his face and patted Ling Chigu, "Ah Gu I've wronged you these past couple days. Once we've arrived at the East Continent, I will find a place for you to stay, I won't force you to live in the wild anymore."

Even though it was clearly written in the <<Imperial Corpse Technique>> that corpses were merely killing tools for the Imperial corpse user, Yan Tianhen would never treat Ling Chigu as a tool.

Moreove,r he already considered Ling Chigu as a brother-in-arms. Though they had never fought together or seen blood, they had at least gone through several thrilling instances of almost being caught together.

Ling Chigu, under the sincere gaze of Yan Tianhen, slowly nodded his head.

Yan Tianhen was stunned, and then said with pleasant surprise, "Ah Gu, you've learned how to nod! Then in the future, you should also be able to speak with me right?"

Ling Chigu fell silent once more.


Yan Tianhen didn't push him. He already knew that this corpse was beginning to have a consciousness.

It was possible in the future for the corpse to act exactly like a living person, indistinguishable to the human eye. However, the body would always be ice cold. No matter how similar they could be to living people, they would never be alive.

Yan Tianhen sat on the dune and chatted with Ling Chigu. After a while, Yan Tianhen had the thought that if he really had gone to relieve himself, there must be something medically wrong with him for him to take so long.
