"Really?" Fade glanced at her.

"In that case, please enjoy it alone!"

All of a sudden, he narrowed his eyes and dashed forward, instantly putting a distance between himself and Yura.

Sure enough, she didn't expect this abrupt move from him.

"You, you..." She stomped her foot and immediately chased after him.

Upon seeing her pursuit, the corners of Fade's mouth twitched before he suddenly stopped in mid-air.

She didn't see that coming at all. She tried her best to brake but failed. As a result, she slammed into his arms. Although she immediately pulled herself away, the soft collision had imprinted in her mind.

Her cheeks flushed red as she stared at him.

She bit her lip and snapped, "What's your problem?"

He remained expressionless, in spite of facing the gorgeous beauty. He said lightly, "Why are you following me?"

She looked at his stern face and couldn't help but glare at him angrily.

"Does it have to be a malicious intent to have me following you? Can't it be out of good intentions?"

He paused for a while, then shook his head. "It's always good to be cautious in this realm."

Upon hearing this, Yura burst into tears and began to cry in front of him.

"I only meant good. I wanted to help you out, but I never expected you to be so overly sensitive that you would suspect me." "Help me?" Fade eyed her with a mixed expression of shock and suspicion. "Why would you help me?"

She glared at him with tears in her eyes. "Why? If it wasn't for Junior Kelly who was

constantly praising you in front of us, do you think I would have stayed with you in the Xuan Valley?"

"Do you think I will give up on the idea of fighting with Wagner and the rest, just to stay with you until now?" "Kelly told you to help me," he muttered as he looked at her.

She asked, "Other than that silly junior sister of mine, who else would give you a helping hand?"

"You saw it as well. Shamos would rather go against his master's orders than waste time here."

However, Fade was still doubtful.

Yura couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. She glared at him, gritted her teeth, and hissed, "I really don't know what kind of spell you have placed on my junior sister." "She has been talking about you all the time ever since she came back."

"If it wasn't for her constant nagging, I wouldn't even care about you!"

He stared at her for a moment but he didn't seem to find anything unusual.

At that moment, he felt a little embarrassed to have taken her good intentions wrongly.

It seemed that he had become overly sensitive over this period of time. Whenever he met someone, he tended to question their intentions.

It might be safer this way, but undeniably, it would hurt those who really cared about him.

Thinking of this, his expression softened and he smiled warmly at her.

"I'm sorry, I was being too cautious."

"If you don't mind, let's continue the journey together!"

After receiving his apology, Yura's expression lightened up a bit.

However, she still glared at Fade angrily and said, "We are behind for so long; it's impossible to catch up with them anymore. It seems like I can only be last with you."

Her words might sound arrogant, but she seemed to have accepted his offer.

He raised the corners of his mouth

and said with a smile, "Being last doesn't mean that we won't be able to gain anything. In fact, we may probably gain more than those before us."

She rolled her eyes at him and snapped, "Stop daydreaming."

"There used to be plenty of treasures in the first level of the Xuan Valley but many people have come and gone over the years. The treasures that are easily found must have been taken away."

"We won't be able to find anything good in the first level."

He didn't bother to bicker with her. Instead, he dashed forward for a few hundred meters.

"What are you doing? Not again..." She was once again shocked and immediately followed him.

She was about to scold him again.

Suddenly, he stopped and bent down to pick up something from the ground. He then turned around and handed it over to her.

"This is for you!"

"What?"

Yura gaped at him in surprise, then her gaze fell on a plant in his hand that looked like a piece of dry grass.

"What's this?"

Fade merely smiled.

"It's the Stoney Salvia."

"If I'm not mistaken, you didn't seem very comfortable at the spot near the Tianchi acupoint when you were practising kung fu," he suggested. "This herb can cure your problem."

"Ah, how did you know about my..." Yura was taken aback as she gawked at him.

He smiled and continued, "Didn't Kelly tell you that I'm a traditional Chinese medicine doctor as well."

"My medical skills are quite good."

With that, he stuffed the herb into Yura's hands.

This had changed her impression on him and her attitude towards him slowly changed.

She was thinking of a way to thank him.

However, just as she was thinking, she looked up and only to find that he had rushed forward again.

He didn't take long to discover a few other things. He then grasped them in his hand.

There were dried grass- like herbs, a few strange-shaped stones, and even a few ugly insects.

"Fade, what are you doing?" Yura strode to his side and asked.

Fade put away the things he had collected and explained, "I'm searching for treasures! These are all useful things. They are absolutely rare herbs in the outside world." "I'm quite lucky. We are only in the first level and yet we have found so many valuables."

When she heard this, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

She took a deep breath and said, "Fade, I know you are a doctor and you have a lot of interest in unique herbs."

"I also know that these things are useful and they definitely worth a lot if you bring them outside."

"But do keep this in mind, the main purpose of us coming to the Xuan Valley is to comprehend the martial essence. That is the path that will lead us to the Lord Level." "These treasures are not even worth mentioning as compared to that."

"Fade, you should be clear about your priorities. Stop wasting too much time on these things!"

After hearing her comment, he nodded to her and said, "I understand. Thank you for your advice."

"Then let's hurry up and move

forward. If we don't go now, it'll be too late. She nodded her head. She then looked in the direction where Shamos and the others had left and was prepared to move forward.

However, he had no intention of leaving at all. He shook his head at her and said, "I don't want to leave yet. I would like to stay on the first level for a bit longer."

"You..." She was slightly furious and she glared at him.
