Chapter 1161: Arrival
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
The hawk kept holding Han Bingxue's hair in its beak, flying in its fastest speed, as it flew out seven thousand miles!
After Ye Xiao patiently convinced it, it finally landed on top of a mountain and dropped Han Bingxue.
However, the unique swordsman of the world, Frost Sword was in such a miserable situation that even Ye Xiao didn't like to see him being made fun of.
As they got back down to the floor, Han Bingxue's legs were frozen. He just fell down to the floor, and his hair was sticking backward pointing up at the sky… His hair was actually covered by frost.
His handsome face had turned iron-green. Even his lips were green. He started to talk while his lips and his arms were shaking, "B… Bo… Boss… I… I…"
Ye Xiao hurriedly fed him a supreme dan bead to recover his spiritual qi. After a while, he finally made it through. Then he started to shout loudly, "You asshole…"
"Coo, coo…" The hawk turned over and stared at him provokingly. [What did you say? Are you sure you want another round?]
Han Bingxue was stunned.
"I… I must…" He submitted and talked with a grievance, "I must be having awful luck… I got played by a human, a cat, a bird… I didn't do anything or hurt anybody, did I? …"
He felt utterly grieved.
Ye Xiao made a long sigh and didn't tell him the reason.
[If he knows what the golden hawk doesn't like the most now…]
[That will lead to lots of big damn shows for sure!]
[It is not easy to see Han Bingxue like this…]
Ye Xiao didn't honestly want to help Han Bingxue, but he still pretended to be angry. He said to the hawk, "Look at what you have done. You scared the sh*t out of my brother!"
The hawk cooed. It was apparently saying, 'I didn't mean to… I didn't know he was such a coward… He is a powerful cultivator after all. How can he be so cowardly? It truly is hard to see a man from his face!'
"No! You can't do that!" Ye Xiao angrily said, "Try to be careful next time. Okay?"
Han Bingxue glared at Ye Xiao. [What the hell are you talking about? What do you mean next time? Are you going just to let it go just like this? That can't be more protective to your little hawk, can it? …]
He pointed at Ye Xiao with a shaking finger, quivering, but then lowered his head with anger in the end.
[Forget it. I can't afford to mess up with either of them… I guess I can at least stay away from getting messed?]
Then he heard Ye Xiao talking to him through the mind connection. "The golden hawk… is too powerful. I don't dare to challenge it… It is not my pet or anything. We are just associates. That's all…"
Han Bingxue still couldn't entirely believe it.
After Ye Xiao talked to the hawk for a long time and promised to give it some dan beads, the hawk finally agreed to let Han Bingxue fly with them. However, it didn't allow him to sit on its back. He could only sit on its tail…
Therefore…
Han Bingxue kept holding the hawk's tail cautiously in an incredibly awkward posture for all the way along…
It was quite a long time after when Han Bingxue finally knew what he said provoked the golden hawk…
He even started a fight against Ye Xiao because of it…
Indeed, he got punched really hard by Ye Xiao in that fight…
Anyway, it was a very long time afterward.
Clouds were fleeting backward fast below them. Ye Xiao, Han Bingxue, the hawk, and the cat were over the peak of a mountain after moving fast for several days.
Ye Xiao looked down through the clouds.
What he saw was a huge mountain which appeared to be cut in the middle. The top of the mountain was flat and broad. On the other side of the top, there was a huge fissure.
That fissure was a strange valley.
The valley was about a hundred meters wide, with the straight cliff walls on both sides.
There were a lot of people crowding on the mountain. They were like countless ants crowding on the top of the mountain.
"Let's get down."
Ye Xiao made a decision. He casually took out a mask and put it on his face.
"Go around there and stay on the back. I will go straight from the front. Hawky, stay hidden somewhere nearby and wait. Erhuo, follow me." He didn't hesitate and just gave orders to everybody. After that, the hawk found a covert valley nearby after hovering for a while. Then it flew down to it.
Han Bingxue got the order. The order was like the most beautiful music for him. When they were about one thousand meters high from the floor, he jumped off in advance with his white clothes flicking the air. He rushed into a piece of forest on the top of the mountain as if he was a fugitive.
Soon he disappeared.
Ye Xiao jumped off the hawk after him, with the little cat on his shoulder. He just went straight to the crowded area. That was exactly where everybody loved and hated at the same time.
It was where people could reach the top immediately, but also a place they could die instantly!
Heaven's Terrace!
How many roads were there that led to Heaven's Terrace? Nobody knew the answer. Nobody, no matter how long had they stayed around this place for, knew the answer. Countless must be the best answer they could think of.
Hundreds of roads around this place all could lead to Heaven's Terrace.
Ye Xiao descended from the sky, clearly looking at the people who were moving fast to the top of the mountain. Everybody seemed anxious but hopeful at the same time. It felt a bit sad, but also a bit exciting.
That was not rare. People who came to this place, no matter what he was after, would end up either of the two possible ways. One was to be invincible in the world, while the second was to die!
Opportunity and danger both awaited!
Success and failure took the same price!
It was fair!
Whoever got it would get all; whoever didn't would lose all!
As simple as that. That was the fact.
The only thing Ye Xiao could do was to be brave and march ahead. There was no need for hesitation. He knew it. He didn't hesitate and just chose a way to go up.
On the way to the top of the mountain, he kept hearing people talking with excitement and fear at the same time.
"Have you heard? Cang Lan Sect, Li Yundi, got hooked."
"Li Yundi? What… The genius of Cang Lan Sect who reached level two of Dao Origin Stage when he was younger than thirty?"
"That's right. That's him. He was so confident, arrogant as if the fruits belonged to him. That's what I heard. Well, we know what truly belonged to him… Ha…"
"Gosh… Confidence doesn't get you the fruits. If confidence does help, there will be countless invincible figures in Qing-Yun Realm…"
"Let's not talk about others. Now, after we get up there, let's just observe for a while. Do not take any reckless moves before everything is assured. Life is important. You only talk about the future when you are alive."
"Absolutely."
