Chapter 500: Incognito (2)

/*unedited*/

Shin Jiao has a glint of cleverness in his eyes as he has already seemed to have a grasp of the person lying on the side of the carriage's identity.

"This guy is royalty and was supposed to be in disguise. However, it seems that his enemies found out about it. Try to hide in plain sight… that would only work if there are no spies in your camp…" Shin Jiao thought as he began to observe the handsome young man.

He extended his arm and slowly absorbs the poison which has already invaded the young man's meridians and heart. However, to detoxify this kind of poison is not a problem for Shin Jiao as it has only been a while since the young man was infected.

Not long later, he stopped and heaves a sigh of relief. Everyone can now see the wounds on the young man's body slowly closing.

"It's healing, your ma… Young master's wound is already healing." The captain said and changes his address to the young man in the middle.

"I'm so happy that you're okay now…" the anxious Song Xie has an expression of relief now.

She truly didn't want to lose her friend like this. So she carefully held his hand and slowly caresses it. She didn't notice that the young man's face is already blushing while looking at her with tenderness in his gaze.

Shin Jiao and the rest noticed this and suddenly seem to understand what is happening. It seems that this guy likes the young woman but has not confessed his feelings towards her.

"Senior brother Deming, you should be okay now, with Master Ji's ability I'm sure you will be fine." She said as she lifted her gaze to look at the young man.

When the young man saw her lifting her head, he immediately shifted his gaze somewhere. Everyone around the two giggled at this scene.

"Junior sister Xie, where are you going?" the young man asked to disperse the awkward situation.

"Oh, this… I'm planning to go to the capital city to see my parents… I have already found someone to help them." She said as she pointed her gaze at Shin Jiao.

"Ah… So this master is the one who will help with your parent's problem… that is awesome. I hope that this time they would be cured. It's been many years since they have been suffering." The young man said.

"Anyway, we are going now senior brother Deming… See you at school!" Song Xie said as she stood up and wave goodbye to the young man.

However, the young man has the expression of the unwillingness to be separated from the young woman. It is seldom that he would have this chance to be alone with her. In school, they would always be together with their friends so he could not do anything about it. Even though he wanted to be together with her at all times, he could not, so he felt helpless.

He truly likes Song Xie and her vibrant personality and seemingly naïve personality. Plus he could not deny that she is a very talented alchemist. Many are saying that she would be the second great alchemist just like princess Qin Lou or the Xi Empire. Has only bolstered his feeling to work hard to be worthy of her.

Even though Deming Er is the crown prince of the kingdom of Er, he did not casually show his face in public and would always wear a mask. He is only a crown prince in name and has not gained merit for himself. However, ever since he was young he was interested in alchemy and its intricacies and formulae. Hence, he truly wanted to be a great alchemist someday.

And Song Xie has caught his attention due to this. Hence having the same passion the two immediately clicked as friends until now.

With reluctance in his eyes to be separated from her, he suddenly extended his hand to grab hers.

"Wait… I… I want to go with you." He said while forcing himself to stand up.

"Your… young master, please be careful… Your wounds are not yet fully healed." The captain of the guards said with a worried expression.

"It's okay captain… with the pill, I am already aware that my wounds have recovered around 70%, so I can move now." He pacified the captain.

"The poison that they have in their weapon is a new poison, right?" suddenly Shin Jiao asked in curiosity.

Hearing the question from his benefactor, Deming Er didn't want to be rude and just nodded his head.

"Yes, Master Ji… it's a new poison developed to counteract the healing properties of the rapid hemostatic pill. Thus if you are infected with that poison, instead of healing your wound will not close. That is also the reason why no antidote would work on him." This time Yao Mai was the one to explain everything to Shin Jiao's inquiry.

"Oh, I see…" he muttered.

Shin Jiao has already absorbed the poison and is slowly analyzing its component inside his mind. And to his surprise, he discovers the flaw of the rapid hemostatic pill.

However, the guards around Deming Er turned silent. They didn't know that the poison has such an effect. If they do, then they would have not feed the crown prince the pill. But how could they know? They are just fighters and not doctors or alchemists.

But the young prince didn't bother with the down and a bit guilty expressions on his guards. He wanted to ask something and would let this chance pass by.

"Umm… Junior sister Xie… Can… can I come with you? We are also going to the capital…" he asked with reluctance.

"Hmm… Okay, at least with us you can be safe." She said with a proud smile on her face.

Shin Jiao could not help but shake his head. He knew that the young woman is a bit naïve and sometimes simple, but he still needed her to reach the capital city of Er kingdom hence he just smirked.

And so the group agreed to travel together. However, since they are now a large group, Song Xie and Yao Mai suddenly found a problem. But before they can say anything, Shin Jiao waves his hand and a large ship appears in the air.

"That… that is a warship… Wow! How? Master Ji, how did you get one?" Song Xie asked with excitement in her eyes.

She has seen large ships like this which are usually used by the soldiers or mercenaries. However, she knew that these things cost a lot of money and resources to buy. So right now she was too excited to think of anything.

Without a second thought, her figure suddenly floated in the air and boarded the ship. She began to scrutinize the ship as if seeing something really interesting for the first time.

The others followed and didn't have any comment on her action. Yao Mai already knew her disciple's innocent and curious heart so she just smiled and followed to board the warship.

"Alright, I don't know the way to the capital, so I will leave everything to you guys." Shin Jiao said as he walked to the bow of the ship and took a chair then sit down without any care in the world.

When the people around him saw his action, they were all a bit stunned. But Deming Er showed a smile on his face. He just nodded to the soldiers and everyone immediately began to move. Not long later, the warship began to move towards the direction of the capital city.

"Wow, Master Ji, your ship is really fast! Plus it has a barrier, this is awesome!" Song Xie said with a happy smile on her face.

This is the first time in her life that she can ride on a warship.

"Umm… Master Ji, this warship seems to be missing any armaments…" suddenly Yao Mai asked.

This question is also in the mind of Deming Er who is sitting next to the group.

"Well, the truth is I took this ship from a mercenary clan. They have offended me, so I took their ship away… Hahaha…" Shin Jiao said casually.

Why would he need to lie to these people? And they already saw his strength, so it's okay to tell them these things.

But when the people heard his casual words, all of them almost trip. How can a person take over a battleship which can carry hundreds of people? Not to mention fighting, even if a middle stage infant soul realm cultivator tries to fight against a warship they are sure that the infant soul realm could not defeat them easily.

But judging from the state of the warship, it seems to have not faced any battles, hence it only means that a powerful cultivator suppresses everyone in one go and took the ship with ease. Thinking up to this, the people in the ship shuddered.

If this is true then the only possible reason is that the simple-looking man before them is actually a nascent realm cultivator. Now even Deming Er is looking at Shin Jiao with a widened eye. However, Yao Mai and Song Xie just showed a smiling face as they already knew of Shin Jiao's strength.

"Master Ji… Are you… are you a nascent realm master?" Deming Er could not help but inquire.

Although he can see or meet with nascent realm cultivators in the palace, he treats those powerful figures with respect and he can also see the proud expression on those people's faces. Even his father the king has a proud aura as a nascent realm.. But the man before him is very young and simple looking, so he is really curious.
