Chapter 112: Two Figure On Top Of A Hill, "Our Secret... Only The Two Of Us Alright?"

"...Yes, you are. In fact, I am a bit surprised about it too."

Hearing the words of Ren Yuan that have spoken without hesitation cause Shao Cheng heart to pang in pain, however, he couldn't really fault for the man for speaking the truth about him.

Well, at least, Ren Yuan is being genuine and isn't lying since Shao Cheng can easily tell if he was telling the truth or not, which ironically, was what Shao Cheng could honestly ascertain in an absolute determination that he can easily understand from Ren Yuan without even needing to observe his expression.

Really, it makes Shao Cheng feel depressed.

Nonetheless, Shao Cheng couldn't help but let out a sigh of agreement, the glowing purple on his eyes still remains the entire time as the next actions he needed to do are silently taking its course because just the death of Gao isn't the end of their dangerous situation.

There are still many others left alive that remain has behind, especially the person who has released those familiar flying birds from before, right now, Shao Cheng is targeting that certain person for his next purpose in mind.

While Ren Yuan who heard the deep sigh of Shao Cheng has suddenly let out a amuse smile before comfortably walking closer to the young man's side and speaking in a low voice while his peach blossom eyes remain deep and enigmatic.

"Although, being heartless is good."

You won't die easily because being too kind and merciful will just lead you to an early death, after all, this world isn't a nice one to live with, either you are going to be forced of performing an operation you wouldn't want to do or you just learn how to deal with it yourself in a hard way.

Hearing that statement, especially getting the hint of what Ren Yuan is speaking about, Shao Cheng couldn't help but turn around only to gaze upon the deep eyes of Ren Yuan that are swirling with numerous emotion within it, before the lip which isn't covered with the silver mask has slowly shown a playful smile.

"Well, I'm fine as long as I am not the one receiving your heartlessness alright?"

"Never."

Shao Cheng didn't need to even think for a second before that single word was let out his lip which causes Ren Yuan that has been trying to make the sudden serious atmosphere between them to become light to abruptly widens his eyes at that absolute answer he receives.

Although deep down Ren Yuan has spoken those words for the young man to speculate about for his future actions, so that the two of them would not produce a chance of suddenly becoming enemies.

He truly doesn't want that to happen, somehow just thinking about it stir something within him screaming in utter protest, although, he doesn't have any clue of why he felt this way.

Nevertheless, Ren Yuan is thoroughly astonished about Shao Cheng's resolute answer since he sounds so positive and utterly certain about the word he has spoken. 

"I can be heartless for my family's sake…"

Raising his hand to pull down the mask upon his face, Shao Cheng eyes glimmer when he saw the slight doubt reflected on Ren Yuan's eyes before reaching over and gently taking hold of the piece of long hair that has gently swayed toward him and has started to lightly play upon it.

"You don't understand? The moment you have reached your hand and has pulled me out from being submerged into the depth of the river was the most significant moment of my life. Ren Yuan, you save me from death, thus giving me another chance to live a life full of meaning."

This new life of mine is only possible because of you, Ren Yuan, how can I treat you with heartlessness in this life once more?

Once is enough, there is no need for another repeat of the previous one alright?

"You… Ren Yuan is extremely special to me, don't forget that alright? And if someday… I will be forced to choose between you and my family…"

Letting go of the pieces of hair wrapped on his fingers, Shao Cheng raise his hands to slowly remove the silver mask of the person that seemed to have become frozen causing his lip to curl up for a bit while his sapphire eyes deepened with unexplainable emotion.

"Without any hesitation, I will choose you over them… because you are far more significant and important to my life."

My family is important… but you are just far more important, so I won't lie and deny that certain fact because it is truly what I feel because, without you, I wouldn't be here right now, besides, in this life of mine, you have become what I live for. 

Are you… perhaps horrified at the concept of what I have spoken? After all, even I know how scary and terrifying it sounds especially how cruel and cold it appears to be.

Shao Cheng couldn't help but stare at the peach blossom grey eyes that remain wide open before an astonished expression appears on his face when the older man's face has suddenly become flush in pink before turning into a beautiful deep crimson color, abruptly making Shao Cheng speculate about how gorgeous it looks.

"... Is that so…um… ok… I got it..."

Huh… not the reaction Shao Cheng imagined Ren Yuan will respond with the word he has spoken, even those slightly awkward and broken words coming out from his mouth.

Is this man… perhaps have gotten completely embarrassed and shy?

What is this… how come, Ren Yuan appears so adorable and lovable right now...

And for the first time ever, even a rare one in the previous life, Shao Cheng lip open up before letting out a delightful soft sound of laughter, completely bright and happy while feeling his chest becoming so light.

Sapphire's eyes warm and soft, Shao Cheng has pulled the stiffened man into his arms which have remained quiet and obedient, seemingly unable to react about what is happening or probably surprise by his laughter since he has never done that yet.

And as Shao Cheng stares down at Ren Yuan that has slowly blinked his eyes before meeting his, a smile so bright and warmth has instantly spread upon his face causing Ren Yuan crimson face to become deeper which has cause Shao Cheng to let out a laugh once more.

Really, it has been a while since he laughs like this.

"I'll show you an extraordinary scenery…"

So without another word, Shao Cheng has jumped down and dashed over to another place while carrying Ren Yuan in his arms who has finally decided to just follow along with what is happening, besides he believes that he needed a slight break from what just occurred since his mind seemed to be not working properly at the moment.

Oh… such a docile and quiet Ren Yuan is truly lovely… Shao Cheng wishes the man can act that way most of the time… well, he will just appreciate it whenever this rare side of Ren Yuan occurs once in a while.

And so Shao Cheng jumps, dashes and leaps up deep in the forest for a bit while before finally arriving in a tall hill which only has a single large tree upon it.

"Yuan look…"

Gently taking a hold of the man's face with one of his hand, Shao Cheng has guided Ren Yuan head to stare at a certain distance where people is running away in a sluggish manner as they bypass trees in such slow movements, while the sound of struggle resounded out that it even reach their location.

With a curious expression on his face, Ren Yuan stare at what is transpiring before suddenly feeling a warm breath ghosting over his ear when the young man has lean over to softly whisper over causing Ren Yuan to feel an itch on his ear while oblivious about how it has become flush in adorable pink color once more, causing certain young man eyes to turned deep as it gazes on it for a bit longer.

"This is going to be our secret… only for the two of us…alright?"

I will trust you with this certain secret of mine so…

Raising one of his hands, Shao Cheng long sleeves swayed before a slight force escape from his hand and reaching over the large tree that covers their figure causing numerous leaves to gently swayed down in which he has gently grabbed one.

"I'm sure… you already search that person and couldn't find him right? There is no need to keep looking anymore since I took care of them all… with the help of this abnormal skill of mine…"

Shao Cheng's eyes become deep, glimmering with certain light upon it that even Ren Yuan who doesn't have the vision to see a certain mysterious world was able to sense about an obscure atmosphere upon the person he has been leaning the entire time. 

It might be because of their certain connection in that area that Ren Yuan was able to detect the unusualness of Shao Cheng because in this world, unlike the split heaven aura that has become his own special power in that certain future world, the heaven aura of the fated true and genuine ruler of the Chang Empire has once more split between the two of them in this new one.

The link and connection of the fate of their destiny still remain bound together.

Hearing those words of Whitey, Ren Yuan's eyes flash before the certain guess in his mind seemed to have finally found the answer it's looking for.

You… trust me that much…? Am I really that special to you…?

However, before Ren Yuan can open his lip to ask those words out when he suddenly felt his body being pulled more closer while his head was placed over to lean upon a slender shoulder before two arms encompassed his body while the single leaf held between fingers has passed his eyesight and placing into a thin lip.

And then a rather high pitch sound was let out by the young man and swiftly turning into a soft gentle rhythm that sometimes goes up and down, which showed a different image that is about to transpire because of those rather gentle sounds that have been let out.

Soon one by one, numerous different sound of animals howling and roaring has echoed out that seemed to almost resound out from high up in heaven while Purple that has been floating in the sky with a massive form the entire time has also let out a loud roar of his own, while purple energies have come out from his body before descending down upon the beasts that have been called out.

Those purple energies were connected to Shao Cheng the whole time using Purple body like some sort of a guide, a skill he has consider and is now using in the present situation which has worked out from the look of it now.

And for the first time ever, Ren Yuan has witnessed the power that Shao Cheng holds, even though it was just a small peek of what it is, but it was enough to make him utterly astonish and amazed at what he is seeing.
