Chapter 211: Shao Cheng Strangeness And Ren Yuan Anxiety. The Blurred Reality Of The Previous And Present Life.

Shao Cheng's eyes have secretly flicker around the place despite the unusual throbbing pain he felt on his head as the thought of escaping stubbornly persisted in his mind.

Without a doubt, Shao Cheng has chosen to quickly depart and leaving Ren Yuan without speaking a single word behind despite the man unusual atmosphere around his body.

After all, he was still using Suyin disguised because even after submerging in the water, the thin fake face mask is extremely durable even when an accident cut was to happen, it wouldn't show any suspicious about it being a false face.

Shao Cheng has prepared everything with extremely meticulously care since there is only once chance to completely deceive the Ma Family regarding Suyin's situation, and everything went well until this situation suddenly appearing because of a certain purple dragon selfish and unreasonable side.

And so, with a quick flash on Shao Cheng eyes, he has swiftly pulled the sword out from his chest, completely ignoring the blood rushing out from his indifferent action while forcefully swallowing the metallic taste trying to flow up in his throat before using the two types of energy to quickly dash away.

Although, Shao Cheng has moved fast, however, Ren Yuan has already long prepared for his escape, knowing fully well how stubborn the young man is, so there is no way that he would easily admit the actual truth.

So the last course of action would be to 'escape and run away from him' rather than acknowledging his true identity, especially when the secret this time appeared to be extremely important if the young man was severely injured.

And the sword on the young man's right chest, the arrows stab into some part of his body, and the cruel actions of pulling the sword out have quickly cause Ren Yuan's eyes to suddenly turned red because a chaotic emotion has abruptly erupted within him.

This time, Ren Yaun felt that he was absolutely going mad! As for what, he doesn't even get the reason why! He just felt extremely uncomfortable and upset all over!

So, Ren Yuan that has already calculated the path of escape the young man would take has able to quickly blocked the young man way, which soon has caused the two of them to surprisingly attack each other with a quick successive blow.

Yes, it truly is happening, the two of them engaging in a fight, there wasn't even gentleness to the way the two people's actions were challenging each other.

One is pushing the other into helplessness and inability to run away while the other is ruthlessly attacking in order to leave, the two people are completely treating each other as adversaries, unlike their usual close relationship.

Although it took a mere few seconds, however, the two of them have already exchanged many blows since they didn't even try to diminish their power and strength, completely stubborn in their own way.

No one is willing to give up on their own belief and reason.

However, the completely unusual and familiar situation was enough to cause Shao Cheng to have a flicker of confusion and doubt to quickly flash on his eyes while an image of a similar fight in a certain time couldn't help but emerge in his mind and causing another painful throb upon his head.

Shao Cheng couldn't help but grit his teeth and swiftly using the sword in his hands before unconsciously using thick energy to quickly wrapped around the sword and speedily thrusting over while a loud 'just go away' resounding in his mind.

An aura in a sword or any weapon is the sign of complete mastery of a martial artist when using their internal energy and showing the seriousness of the entire situation.

And Ren Yuan has easily understood the meaning of the young man's action causing his expression to flicker with akin to a hurt emotion before it quickly changes into a dark expression.

So, when the fast-moving sword was directly pointed at his vital part, Ren Yuan has suddenly stopped moving with a stubborn expression on his face and just calmly watching as the sharp tip of the swords continue to pierce directly into where his heart is.

"...why won't you continue?"

After hearing the man calm voice, The person who has been holding the sword suddenly shook his hands while a shudder runs throughout his body.

And Ren Yuan has remained stubbornly on his spot while the sword tip was barely touching his red robes upon his left chest before letting out a smile on his face after the young man remains unresponsive, although it wasn't the usual friendly and warm smile, it was completely sharp and unusually chilling.

"... you…"

Shao Cheng suddenly took a step back, confusion and panic flashing in his eyes before swiftly throwing the swords in his hand causing the stone wall it landed to suddenly crack while the sharp blade has simply broken off to pieces, completely showing how strong his actions have been.

And without a paused, Shao Cheng has reached over below his neck before skillfully peeling of the fake thin skin and decisively pulling the face mask on his face and destroying it with his internal energy.

Every single movement Shao Cheng did was smooth and faultless, completely showing the familiarity of eliminating any evidence to be left behind despite being in an uncomfortable situation.

"… finally stop being headstrong?.... I can understand that today's situation is important… enough for you to even fight against me…. But at least, can you please explain it to me?"

Shao Cheng lowered head has slowly raised over and quickly showing an eerily pale face, where there wasn't even blood that can be seen on it since it was absolutely white while the usually clean and bright sapphire eyes were completely clouded with darkness.

The young man's strange appearance has greatly alarm Ren Yuan along with having a bad premonition and causing the stiffness in his chest to swiftly go away.

While Purple who has been silently watching in the sideline has stopped moving and for the first time ever, has shown an extremely alert and wary expression on his face.

Shao Cheng suddenly took a step back while grabbing his right chest where the flow of blood has started to flow once more and the powerful movement he has done before didn't help, while the blood he tried hard to restrained on his throat has finally flown out from his mouth causing Ren Yuan expression to effectively replace in anxiety. 

"... Little Cheng!"

Shao Cheng couldn't help but take a step back, dodging the hands trying to grab his shoulder and causing Ren Yuan to freeze over with his expression simply changing into a blank one.

"... why... "

For once, can you let me do my task in peace? Is it so wrong to quietly fulfill my responsibility? Why… did you appear here?

Different from the usual cold and indifferent voice, the sound that has come out from Shao Cheng mouth was completely empty causing Ren Yuan and Purple to inwardly grimace, after all, the two of them can easily perceive that there is something wrong with the young man at the moment.

"... don't look…"

I really don't want to let you see this side of me for as long as I could…. even though you said before that you accept my cruelty but… it's still offensive to see right? Besides, who would want to show their ugly side to the person they…um... huh?

Shao Cheng wanted to cover his face with his hands, however, it could only shake while the throbbing pain of his head reaches into another level, there was definitely something wrong with him… is it the effect of using the new skill he was still trying to perfect?

"... Little Cheng? It's alright! I'm not really angry! You can do whatever you want! Really! I'm just being noisy!"

I'm just extremely upset, worried, and sad!

Ren Yuan's body tense up while uncertainty and anxiousness flashing on his eyes while a loud 'something wrong' 'quickly fix it' keep repeating in his mind.

"... no need to know… I can do it… really..."

It makes me feel so incompetent…

Shao Cheng can feel the state of his mind isn't right however it appeared that he could not stop himself at all.

"... I'm not… useless…"

Yes… I can do it! I can deal with them! Just stay safe and be happy all the time… you look… better with bright expression… Yuan… don't… be sad anymore… I'm alive…

Shao Cheng's vision suddenly blurred and was unable to tell the situation with the right mind while the figure of Ren Yuan keeps being switch with an older one, and the image of a drunk man weeping while the moon is high up in the night sky is so uncomfortable to see.

Because of a dead person… you have to sacrifice the chance of forming a happy family...

Because of exceptional determination, you went into a bloody battle and have been betrayed and severely injured… 

And then the image suddenly shifts to the unbelievable sight of a special person dying in the bed with hopeful emotion brimming upon his attractive grey pupils... 

During the time Shao Cheng has been dealing with Ma Jin, and even after Ma Jia has arrived, he has been using his purple aura among the stressful situation of moving around to deal with their mindsets.

It might not look at it but Shao Cheng mentality has been already been pushed to a weakened state, it should have been alright after a few days of rest, however, he just happened to meet the only person who can easily and greatly affect everything about himself in his most vulnerable time.

"... I'll… make… it… better..."

Really… I'll do it correctly this time…

"Whitey!"

Shao Cheng's body swayed before his legs have finally buckled up from tiredness which is a long-overdue before quickly falling down on the ground, fortunately, Ren Yuan was able to quickly catch his body.

In the end, no matter what has changed, Shao Cheng wasn't completely indestructible and strong enough from the nonstop overwork both physically and mentally with all of his two auras despite the slow change of his body and newfound power. 

"... B-Brother Y-Yuan… I'm sorry…"

Completely changing is really hard to do… just like you have mentioned before… I'm still being stubborn… right?

When Purple has swiftly entered Shao Cheng's body, there was a quick consciousness appearing on his eyes and giving him enough time to recognize what he has just done.

In which Shao Cheng couldn't help but close his eyes tightly while raising his hands to shakily grasp the man red robes, he didn't even imagine that he will be fighting Ren Yuan with such a ruthless act.

"Shh… it's alright. I understand that Little Cheng is working hard. And in the end, it's all for the people you love and care about. There is nothing wrong with it, everyone has something to protect. It's just your Brother Yuan being unreasonable again.���

You are just taking all the tasks a bit too much…enough to even let yourself get injured in this kind of state... that stubbornness to the point of obstinate personality really needed to change though...

Ren Yuan expression turned grim and serious before quickly noticing the weak but steady breath of the person in his arms, which has already lost consciousness and prompting him to swiftly rushed somewhere.

Of course, after quickly cleaning up the entire place in order to not leave any evidence behind and causing the young man great trouble.

"... Honestly… sometimes, I really… don't know what to do with you…"
