The whole way back indeed took huge amount of time.

It was almost evening when the five of them reached the meeting point that Xiao Jun had planned. Those Children that they said had been rescued, was already brought away.

At the meeting point, it was only Yang Yu and one another man that Xiao Jun called as Liu Wei. Senja assumed he was like Yang Yu for Xiao Tianyao.

It had been a long time since Senja met Yang Yu, he even didn't come to the Greenhill Mountain, because Xiao Tianyao assigned him in another mission.

"Hay." Senja greeted him casually and waved her hand toward Yang Yu from behind Xiao Tianyao's back. Yang Yu smiled and bowed respectfully toward her and his Master.

This whole afternoon, Senja mostly spent it on Xiao Tianyao's back. There was couple of time when Xiao Jun offered to switch with him to carry her, but he refused his offer regardless.

Until Senja was very adamant that he needed to switch with Xiao Jun, only then he handed Senja over to his brother reluctantly. But, it didn't take long time before he asked for her again.

Well, it was so sweet of him to be so possessive and all, but the most impressive thing was; he practically carry her for half day, without looking exhausted.

That was so absurd for her logic.

Not to mention he was carrying her, even if she walked by herself she would be so spent in short time.

Senja lazily laid her cheek on her shoulder while Xiao Tianyao still carried her until Yang Yu brought their horse and Xiao Tianyao put her on the saddle before he hoisted his self up as well.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jun gave Gong Xu and Senja a horse for them to catch up with their own group and Ye Xiu.

Looking to the development of the situation, Xiao Jun didn't have time to meet his master and only asked Gong Xu to relay his message.

For Xiao Tianyao, he stared at Gong Xu from his horse. "I am not done with you." His voice was dangerously low while he was trying to suppress his emotion.

They came up with unspoken understanding when they were looking for both women and the way back from the cliff, but it didn't mean the matter between Xiao Tianyao and Gong Xu was left forgotten.

Gong Xu held Xiao Tianyao glared and for everyone surprised, he spoke with resolute tone. "If you are still thinking that I am the one who killed your wife, why don't you ask Ye Bai?"

"Ye Bai?" Xiao Tianyao glowered.

"You didn't remember him, did you?" Gong Xu gave him a sharp glared.

Xiao Tianyao didn't like it when someone challenged him openly like the way Gong Xu did right now. He was about dismounted the horse when Senja held his arms, prevented him from took another move toward him.

He didn't like this gesture from Senja, he felt she was siding with his enemy.

"How you can be so sure that it was me who killed your wife? When you don't even remember who he is." Gong Xu remarked sharply.

"Don't beat around the bush!" Xiao Tianyao growled, his hand flying to the hilt of his sword. "Who is he!?"

"He was there when your wife got killed, but you didn't even remember him and blindly come after me all this year."

Gong Xu nodded at Xiao Jun direction as he helped Senja mounted the horse.

"If you wanted to know who he is, why don't you ask your brother?" Gong Xu added. "Or ask the mind controller on your arms to help you remember everything."
