Chapter 937: Chapter 937 Striving Goals

Waking up early in the morning, Gu Fan felt listless, and then he glanced at Mo Yun, who was lively and stretching languidly. Gu Fan couldn’t help but sigh.

Mo Yun noticed Gu Fan and asked, "What’s wrong with you? With those dark circles, did you have insomnia last night?"

"Yeah, I’m used to having a room to myself. How about this, Master, let’s split up tomorrow evening and each take a separate room," Gu Fan suggested, looking at Mo Yun with hopeful eyes, only to see Mo Yun squinting at him, which sent a shiver down his spine.

Mo Yun questioned, "What do you mean? You want separate rooms, so you can slip away when I’m not paying attention?"

"How could that be? I’m still relying on you, Master, to teach me Martial Arts," Gu Fan immediately put on a display of loyalty and then yawned uncontrollably, truly exhausted.

Of course, Mo Yun disagreed. She always felt that this Gu Fan was too slippery and needed close watching, lest he slip up.

Having no other choice, Gu Fan had to endure and decided to have breakfast first and then find a way to deal with his lack of sleep.

So Gu Fan and Mo Yun left the room, walked out of the inn, found a roadside stall, and ordered some food.

Looking around at the bustling crowd, Gu Fan asked, "Master, if we keep waiting and they don’t show up, are we just going to wait indefinitely? There should be a time limit, shouldn’t there?"

Mo Yun nodded, "We wait for a month, and if those people don’t show up, we’ll move on."

Thank goodness, at the moment, Gu Fan’s mind was wholly set on finding Lin Xi. He had no interest in Mo Yun’s affairs and certainly didn’t want to encounter another batch of vampires.

"Then, Master, if we don’t find them, are we going straight to the Martial Arts Competition to compete for the throne of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader?" Gu Fan finished with a look of anticipation.

Mo Yun was baffled, "I’m telling you, kid, with Martial Arts as poor as yours, why do you have such an unrealistic dream of becoming the Martial Arts Alliance Leader?"

Gu Fan gave a reasonable rationale, "Since I’ve come to venture in the world, of course, I need to have a goal."

"You make that sound so reasonable," Mo Yun said as she drank some water and then noticed people lurking around, which made her frown instantly.

Seeing Mo Yun’s unusual expression, Gu Fan asked, "What’s wrong, Master?"

"Someone is watching us. Just act as if you know nothing and keep eating breakfast as usual," Mo Yun said, putting on a smiling face as if she were having a delightful chat with Gu Fan.

Gu Fan got the hint and played along with Mo Yun, pretending to chat and eat heartily.

In fact, Gu Fan was very nervous inside. He couldn’t understand why he would be targeted for no reason; he had only arrived in ancient times not long ago, which made no sense.

In a corner, a disheveled middle-aged man pointed towards where Gu Fan was sitting and said to Lord Xiong, "Was it this kid who was spying on you guys yesterday?"

Lord Xiong took a glance and his brow furrowed slightly. He remembered; right after he and the Western Blood Clan entered the small town the night before, he had seen this kid fighting with two others, one fat and one thin.

"It really is this kid, but why? That night I only saw him once. I didn’t provoke him," Lord Xiong couldn’t figure it out. What had he failed to do right to attract the other’s pursuit?

Suddenly, Lord Xiong noticed that a few other people were watching Gu Fan, and he immediately hid, his mind filled with doubt, "Who exactly is this kid, he is inquiring about my whereabouts, why are there people watching him?"

"Interesting, I didn’t expect to come across such an intriguing kid just after arriving at this small town. Good, I want to see what you are all about." Lord Xiong decided to treat it like a game and kept on watching Gu Fan.

At this moment, Gu Fan felt more and more people watching him, which made him feel uneasy, and then he noticed those two, the fat one and the thin one, had appeared again, realizing that things were not looking good.

"Let’s go!" After Mo Yun paid the bill, she pulled Gu Fan and left.

Gu Fan hurriedly followed, saying to Mo Yun, "Master, I saw those two who attacked me last time, the fat one and the thin one."

Mo Yun nodded, "It looks like this time they have brought many helpers, we are in danger."

"What do we do, Master? Can we escape?" Gu Fan was not very familiar with what these Martial Arts experts were capable of, so he could not make the correct judgment.

Regarding this, Mo Yun said, "If we escape the city, it would be easier for them to make their move in the wilderness. If we don’t escape, we are just sitting ducks."

Hearing this, Gu Fan felt somewhat desperate, "No way, we can’t escape and we can’t beat them, why are we so unlucky?"

"Yes, why would we run into such a situation." Mo Yun felt that the other party wouldn’t be following her and Gu Fan for no reason, and she suspected it might be because they were after the treasures of the Devil Cult.

Mo Yun’s suspicions were correct. Originally, the fat and the thin men just wanted the secret script of Martial Arts from Gu Fan, but after discovering Mo Yun was with him, they thought the Devil Cult must possess many valuables, and that Mo Yun definitely knew about them.

Although they were greedy, the fat and thin men did not lose their heads. They knew Mo Yun was formidable and that the two of them alone could not take her down, so they had called many more to gather here.

Seeing Gu Fan and Mo Yun move, everyone else followed. Gu Fan glanced briefly and noticed, wow, there were quite a few people?

"No way, with so many people, even if they aren’t experts, they must be stronger than me, a nobody." Gu Fan looked at Mo Yun beside him, wondering if she would abandon him in a moment of crisis, which would complicate things.

What to do, what to do? Gu Fan knew he couldn’t put all his hope in Mo Yun; he had to come up with a way to escape on his own.

Going back to the inn would mean cutting off all his escape routes?

Leave the city? Gu Fan thought if it were him, someone would have likely been set up at the city gate. Once he left the city, a large group of people would surely follow and it would be more convenient for them to make a move in the wilderness.

Even if he used the crowd and the alleys to shake them off, the city wasn’t large, and as long as they were within it, they would eventually be found again.

"Master, I have a plan, do you think it could work?" Gu Fan’s words made Mo Yun’s expression turn grave, and then Mo Yun looked at Gu Fan with a disbelief as if asking whether this plan could really work?

However, Gu Fan did not believe that their current situation gave them a better choice; they had to take a chance no matter what.

"Alright, kid, I’ll trust you this time." Mo Yun decided to go all in and signaled Gu Fan to carry out his plan.
