1334 Chapter 21 Xi Xue love story
"W-what are you saying?!" Bíng Huo hit Xi Xue's back but then fearing she might fell, the girl hurriedly clung to the guy's neck again.
"Well, senior brother looks like you have never dated any girl." Xi Xue shrugged while sticking out his tongue. "Sorry if I sounded rude. Just curious."
"I-i have dated! Who said I haven't??" Bíng Huo lied without batting an eyelid but at some points, her eyes wavered. She didn't dare to look at Xi Xue and just hugged him.
Xi Xue went silent. All of sudden, the air around him turned cold, even colder than before. The smell of blood lingered in the air, disturbing Bíng Huo.
"Do you smell that?" The girl slightly released her grip on Xi Xue's neck and looked at him. At this moment, her face was quite close to the guy but she didn't really pay attention to it.
'This fishy smell...it is the smell of blood!'
"What smell?" Xi Xue tilted his head and blinked his brown eyes. The guy looked straight to Bíng Huo's eyes making the girl averted her eyes away from the guy.
"That...smell of blood…"
The moment Bíng Huo looked away, Xi Xue's eyes turned red and his little fangs popped out again.
"Ah….blood." Xi Xue's voice slowly became deeper and rougher than before.
"Yes, you smell that?" Bíng Huo asked in worry. "This should be the ice eagle territory so there shouldn't be any beast carcass…"
'The ice eagle eats human food after all.'
"Hmmm, I don't really smell blood." Xi Xue shook his head and silently licked his lips. The smell of blood came from his aura turning dense each second.
Something ignited his heart and he didn't know why but the urge to kill someone slowly overwhelmed him.
"Ah, maybe just my feeling then." Bíng Huo sighed and her breath hit Xi Xue's neck, making the guy flinched. He tightened the grip on Bíng Huo's waist and clenched his jaw.
"Yes, just your imagination, " Xi Xue reassured while frowning.
His chest suddenly beat faster and blood surged to his head.
'I...what is this feeling? Why do I feel so irked when she said she dated someone before?' Xi Xue bit his lips and blood seeped out a little.
'I know she's just bluffing but…'
Xi Xue felt his chest tightened. This feeling was like someone squeezed his heart tight.
'I don't understand. What do I want?'
Xi Xue went silent for a few minutes but then they still haven't arrived yet. Even though they were flying, the air pressure was stronger the more they flew up.
This was why Xi Xue slowed down as to not harm Bíng Huo.
The silence enveloped these two and after some time, Bíng Huo couldn't bear it anymore.
"Xi Xue, why are you so silent?" Bíng Huo poked Xi Xue's back as she glanced at the man's side face.
'He looks awfully quiet when he is usually so noisy. Is there anything wrong with him?'
"...what do I need to say?" Xi Xue replied in a cold tone, instantly made Bíng Huo shut her mouth.
A chill went down her spine and the girl sneakily looked at the guy again.
"...are you angry?" Her soft and gentle voice sounded next to Xi Xue's ear, tickling his heart.
"I'm not." Xi Xue turned his head away so it won't be so close to the girl. His face looked serious and stoic, unlike his usual cheerful and naughty self.
This rapid change made Bíng Huo frowned.
"If I did something to offend you...I'm sorry okay?" Bíng Huo grabbed Xi Xue's shoulder and slightly squeezed his clothes.
'Is it because I said I have dated before? Maybe he feels lonely because he never did that?' The girl pondered.
'But I also have never dated anyone before, ah! My grandpa is strict, how can I date…'
Xi Xue didn't say anything and just looked up, focusing on their destination. It was only a few meters away but the wind was so strong that the guy had to be extra careful.
He even silently created a barrier for the two of them without Bíng Huo knowing.
Seeing Xi Xue didn't reply, Bíng Huo whispered weakly, "Xi Xue…"
"What is it?" Xi Xue retorted. The guy clicked his tongue and looked like he was in a real bad mood.
'I know she's not at fault here but I just feel irritated. I don't know. I want to kill people. I want everyone to die.'
Xi Xue squeezed his eyes and inhaled sharply.
'Calm down, calm down. Don't be rash. I'm here to see that ice eagle. Why should I care about a mere human?'
"Uh...are you mad at me?" Bíng Huo carefully asked. "Is it about something I said- "
"No, I'm not angry." Xi Xue shook his head. "I'm just focusing on our situation now."
"Eh, what situation?" Bíng Huo tilted her head innocently.
'So Xi Xue is not angry but he's just being serious?'
"You don't even realise?" Xi Xue raised an eyebrow and snorted. "Senior brother, you should have noticed that the wind is getting stronger and the air pressure is also bad."
!
"Ah…" Bíng Huo paused for a second to feel her surrounding and everything was exactly like what Xi Xue said.
'Is this why the flying-type beasts can touch this place? They can only climb to hide from the wind!'
"And the wind is getting wilder. Some shaped into knives now." Xi Xue shut his eyes feeling his back ached.
The sound of the wind was blocked by his barrier but it didn't mean any of the wind touched him.
'Damn…'
