Chapter 682

Revealing Secrets
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

The dense forest was filled with birds and beasts.

A gust of wind blew and two more figures appeared in an open space. One of them was wrapped in a black robe from head to toe that seemed to have the effect of obstructing the gazes of others.

Ling Xiao broke free from his hold and scanned the black robed man with a penetrating glare before he calmly looked away. Then he sat down in a cross-legged position and and began to recuperate from his injuries. Since the man had rescued him, he did not need to worry that the other party would take the opportunity to mount a sneak attack on him.

The black robed man did not say a word. Instead, he looked at Ling Xiao in silence. It was as if he was not the one who had just saved Ling Xiao as he unobtrusively watched Ling Xiao with rapt attention.

After an unknown period of time, a deep and hoarse voice that seemed to be suppressing something suddenly sounded in the air, “You’re not curious about who I am and why I saved you?”

Ling Xiao did not reply for a long time. After about half an hour, he opened his eyes and met the black robed man’s uncovered eye as he serenely replied, “I’m quite curious. Speak then.”

The black robed man, “…”

After being given such a reply, the black man was unable to relish speaking of it. Sure enough, he was right. This kid’s character was a little flawed.

The black man deliberated for a moment, “I can’t tell you about it yet…”

“Then you don’t have to speak about it,” Ling Xiao interrupted.

The black robed man, “…”

In actual fact, it was not just a little flawed but quite a few flaws.

Ling Xiao stood up and dusted off the leaves on his body before he looked at the man and calmly stated, “I’m leaving if there is nothing else. My wife is looking for me now.” After that, he turned around and left.

“Wait a minute.” The black robed man called out to him at once. This kid was really impossible to deal with. If he had known earlier in the beginning…

Ling Xiao suddenly turned back. It was not because of what the man had said, but because he had suddenly remembered something, “Oh yes, I almost forgot to say thank you. If you hadn’t appeared out of the blue and saved me, I would be heavily injured instead of having slight injuries. So thank you very much.”

Then he continued walking forward.

“Stop right there you little brat!” The black-robed man seemed to be at the end of his patience, but his tone had a little helplessness, “Although you are an adult, how can your personality be so be so unlovable? A-Gu (阿古) had even told me that you’ve grown very well, but it seems like it’s all just superficial. How can your wife tolerate such a personality like yours?”

“Because my wife is smarter than you.” Ling Xiao rebutted.

The black robed man snorted and laughed. His voice was no longer deep and hoarse, but full of masculinity and dominance. One could imagine how handsome and tyrannical he was just by his voice, “You’ve clearly guessed who I am, yet you’ve intentionally said these words to provoke me, right?”

Ling Xiao finally turned around with a nasty smile on his lips, “I’m just acting in concert with you. Could it be that this isn’t the result you wanted? If so, then you should remember to mention it earlier the next time. As a son, I will try my best to coordinate with you and let you play to your heart’s content.”
