Bab 112: A Mission in Red Characters

Ke was extremely beautiful and elegant. She had just come out of the water; the moisture on her skin had added an unusual appeal to her heavenly gracefulness. She looked extremely charming.

"Sister Ke, it wasn’t my intention to peek at you while you were bathing. The fact is that I heard a sound… and assumed that there was an enemy roaming-about in the woods. So, I came here to have a look..." Shi Mu replied in an embarrassed tone.

"I’ve been hiding in the stronghold for some time now… and I haven’t had a bath for a long time. So, I decided to come here and take a bath before the sun came out." Ke’s pretty face turned red. She hurriedly explained with a bashful expression on her face.

Then, she waved her hand, and the black vine cane got buried into the ground.

A thoughtful expression flashed across Shi Mu’s eyes as he looked at the disappearing vine cane.

He and Ke exchanged a look. They didn’t speak anything for a while. The atmosphere around them had become awkward.
