Chapter 315: Who Is The Queen?

What kind of person was Tang Ling?

In men’s eyes, as long as he considered someone as a friend, his friends could simply entrust him with their lives. He was a trustworthy person even though people could barely understand his thoughts and he would sometimes dissociate himself from others.

However, his odd behavior did not stop others from trusting him and entrusting him with their lives.

In the eyes of women, he was still a trustworthy person although the thin layer of distance from him was unbreakable.

If Vian was still alive or if Ro Xin was around, they would know how it felt because they had experienced the distant feeling themselves.

Had Tang Ling never cared about Vian at all?

No, he would have died for Vian in a heartbeat. He had returned to the Hope Barrier and challenged the entire First Reserved Camp even though he knew his life would be threatened. He had gone back because he had sworn to avenge Vian and kill the people who were responsible for her death.

Had Tang Ling never cared about Ro Xin?

No, he had been willing to bear the burden of the Ro family just because of Ro Xin, and if anyone dared to lay a finger on Ro Xin, he would have fought back with all his life.

However, what did it all really mean?

His attitude represented his pure and kind heart.

The layer of distance could not be broken because deep inside him, his softest protection was only for his sister. He would only open his heart to San San. The wounds remained and no one could ever overcome the distant feeling he exuded.

How long had it been?

When San San was first born and her soft and tender hand first caught Tang Ling’s finger, he had felt electrocuted. Life was born fragile and soft. The moment her tiny little hands gripped his finger, it was a sign of trust and reliance, and the feeling was branded in his soul.

The girl was the daughter of his beloved uncle and aunt. She would be his dear sister that he loved later in his life with all he had.

Was it appropriate to describe the relationship and feeling between him and his sister like this?

He had no idea either.

In short, San San was the most important girl that had ever appeared in his life.

Tang Ling had once been young, but he would always carry his tiny and weak little sister. He had taken care of her meticulously besides staying with her and overcome the difficulties in the settlement. Every second and every minute that he spent with her had been warm.

Both of them depended on each other and neither one of them could be replaced!

Therefore, San San’s death caused an irreparable wound in Tang Ling’s heart. It was like a part of his life had been dug out and could not be recovered.

This was the reason behind the distant feeling. It was a door that was shut forever from the moment his sister left him.

Tang Ling believed that if things had been different that night and he was the one who had died, San San would have felt the same.

They were a part of each other’s lives! Tang Ling believed it strongly, even until now!

However, why did his belief change with Higan’s appearance?

Frowning, he smoked in a secluded and quiet alley under the night sky. After having earned some money, a pack of cigarettes was acceptable. It had been over an hour, and he was still outside. He did not care what Boss Huang would do to him because…he had money now!

Higan squatted down beside Tang Ling, gazing at him with a tilted head. She was wondering what was going through his mind.

Meanwhile, Han Xing was also squatting down beside Tang Ling and Higan with his head cocked too as he fixed his gaze on the two of them. They seemed strange to him. One of them frowned and acted cool whereas the other tilted her head and enjoyed the other person’s cool act.

The exuberant Han Xing was going mad!

Tang Ling ignored everything around him because he was still pondering upon the question in his heart. Something had invaded him silently like microorganisms. One would not feel the existence of microorganisms even when they already settled down inside one’s body.

Since when did he get used to Higan’s presence?

He had only known her for two days, yet he allowed her to follow him around, fooled around with her naturally, and even cared about her feelings to the point that he broke his own principles.

Tang Ling was so smart to the point that people would consider him as a wicked genius or something more. However, a high IQ did not equal high EQ. At just 15 years of age, he failed to figure out the complicated questions.

The only thing that he could confirm was that the feeling was not related to love between genders, not yet anyway.

Others might have thought that Higan liked him, but it was not the case.

No matter what people thought about their relationship, Tang Ling was certain that she did not have lovey-dovey sentiments for him either, at least not yet. What they had was something instinctive and he could not find the words to explain them now.

“Ahh! Whatever, I give up!” Tang Ling frustratedly scratched his head and stomped on the cigarette. He stood up, stretched his body, and stroked Higan’s head, messing her long black hair up a little.

Damn it, I can’t help it! The more time I spend with her, the more natural and closer my actions get. I can’t find an explanation for it!

“Giving up on the question is the right thing to do.” Higan smiled and stood up as well.

“Do you know what am I thinking about?” Tang Ling raised a curious brow. If she knew what was on his mind, things would take a bizarre turn from there onwards, and he might have to believe in things such as past lives or whatnot.

“I don’t know.” Higan pocketed her hands in her dress and swirled around casually.

“Then, why is giving up on the question the right thing to do?” Tang Ling pressed on.

“I don’t know either. I’m always like this. If I feel like it and it makes me happy, I’ll just do it. Will knowing the reason why change your decision?” Higan simply replied.

“Sis, you really do live a carefree life.” Han Xing finally got the opportunity to join the conversation.

Unfortunately, Higan ignored him completely.

“Bro, this is a really deep conversation.” Han Xing was not embarrassed at all by being the third wheel as he talked to Tang Ling this time.

“Go away! I’ll beat you up if you keep following me!” Tang Ling glared at him.

What is with this guy? He is like a wad of chewing gum! He has been following me since we came out of the cabin area. I even asked the Wailing Pierrot for a secret exit just to avoid trouble, yet Han Xing was able to follow me?!

No matter how great Tang Ling’s calculation was, he would never have expected Han Xing to be so capable to wait for him and Higan at the secret exit.

Of course, Han Xing would never tell him that he had spent all his wealth and bribed the Wailing Pierrot for the information.

Han Xing was stripped poor once again, but he believed he made a sound investment because he found someone with Precise Instinct, albeit this person not being Tang Long.

No matter how stupid Han Xing was, he was still able to pick up the details and he realized that the person that he followed was not Tang Long. If it was not Tang Long, who could this person be? As a matter of fact, the answer was slowly coming afloat from the veil of mystery. All Han Xing needed was verification.

“I’m going back.”

“Beat me up or whatever, but I’m following you and from now on, you are my bro forever!”

Higan and Han Xing spoke at the same time.

However, Tang Ling ignored Han Xing completely. As for Higan, he somehow felt heavy about her leaving. “Do you want me to send you back?”

“No, I might have caused a lot of trouble today.” Higan shook her head.

“Then, don’t go back,” Tang Ling said.

Higan was stunned. Don’t go back? Stay by Tang Ling’s side?

The idea was a huge temptation to Higan, but she ultimately could not free herself from the shackles. Besides, she thought of another pair of eyes, the eyes that were always kind and loving to her, the eyes of…Tang Long.

If Tang Long doesn’t see me today, he’ll be sad…

With that in mind, guilt followed by grievance and anxiety popped in Higan’s heart. What I did today, Tang Long will be sad about it, won’t he?

Being the smart girl she was, she looked at Tang Ling, she shook her head in silence.

“But you’ll get into trouble if you go back, won’t you? I’ll follow you.” Tang Ling did not ask Higan about the reason. If she did not want to talk about it, he did not want to put her in a difficult position either.

“If you come with me, it will be…even more troublesome.” Higan did not know how to lie, yet she tried her best to force a smile at Tang Ling. “Maybe it’s not that troublesome…”

“Then, I’ll see you tomorrow?” Tang Ling chose the safest way to part with her because he still wanted to see her.

“Yeah, see you tomorrow.” Higan nodded strongly as if letting him down was an unbearable tragedy.

“Bro, you are really something. That’s the queen! If I were you, I ain’t afraid of lousy trouble. I would have just gone with her. I would never allow a girl like the queen to let go of my hands.”

Han Xing kept following Tang Ling after they parted with Higan and he had been walking for 20 minutes without pause. From boarding the car to getting off the car, he even shamelessly clung onto Tang Ling’s sleeve and asked him to pay for the transportation fee of 2 Black Wind coins.

Tang Ling was bothered by some questions in his heart. He was worried about Higan, so he barely cared about Han Xing.

However, when Han Xing mentioned the queen, Tang Ling’s interest was piqued. “Queen? What queen are you talking about?” He furrowed his brows.

“Bro, my dear bro! Are you a caveman from the mountains? How can you not know anything about the queen? In this entire world, other than the queen, what else can you find such a beautiful girl? She is the queen, the queen of Starstay City!” Han Xing was certain that the young man before his eyes was not Tang Long.

Tang Long would never be this stupid.

I knew it! Tang Long is such a handsome guy. There’s no reason for him to wear some lousy dog-headed face cloth!

“Starstay City? Where is that? Queen? Are you saying Higan is the queen? Is it because she’s beautiful?” Tang Ling fired a barrage of questions in a single breath.

Tang Ling and the Stardust Council had a deep hatred for each other, but due to some strange circumstances, he had no idea that the Stardust Council headquarters was in Starstay City. His impression of the Stardust Council was that the council was a force, one that spread throughout the world. He never thought the council would belong to a certain safety city.

It was partially Tang Ling’s fault for not finishing ‘The Purple Moon Chronicles’. Otherwise, he would have known a thing or two about Higan’s identity.

“The queen is known as the queen because other than her beauty, she is powerful, so powerful that she is invincible. At least, she has no worthy opponents in the teenage range,” Han Xing exaggerated his explanation.

As for Starstay City, Han Xing was too lazy to bring Tang Ling up to speed. Only bumpkins would ask such a question and unless Tang Ling instantly modernized himself, it would be a waste of energy for him to explain.

“Are you saying that Higan is powerful?” Tang Ling found it difficult to believe.

“Yes, absurdly powerful! It’s because her talent is one of a kind and it’s invincible,” Han Xing answered seriously.

“What talent is that?” Tang Ling was curious.

“That’s a secret only a handful of important figures know. How the hell would I know?” Han Xing looked around awkwardly while scratching his head. He found himself in a new place. It seemed like a lively street, and in front of him was a building named Dvesha Moha.

Hmm, why does this place look so familiar…Wait a minute! Didn’t I get scammed around here when I first arrived in Darkness Port?

Wait, who is that man with a rod in his hand in front of Dvesha Moha? Why does his smile look so sleazy and filthy like an old fox?

Damn it, is this one of those badger games again?!

With all the thoughts running through his mind, Han Xing stole a glance at Tang Ling uneasily, but to his shock, right after Tang Ling glanced at the building, he turned around and ran for his life without saying anything!
