Chapter 1610. Being Followed
“Blergh!” Han Sen coughed up some blood. The last punch from Outer Sky King had still caused him pain. Of course, he didn’t show it while he had his audience, as he had wanted to appear strong.
Han Sen hid inside an empty cave to heal. Before the healing process was complete, though, he heard a tapping noise. His face went slack with dread.
The tap-tap noise was fast, and when he looked towards the cave’s entrance, he saw a pair of Crystal Shoes. They were the Crystal Shoes from Eastern Palace.
Han Sen was afraid of those shoes, and he didn’t want to find himself being controlled by them again. As soon as he saw the shoes he ran, but it was like they remembered who he was. They pursued him, and the tap-tap noise followed.
“Why are you chasing me? Tell me what it is you like about me, and I’ll change that aspect!” Han Sen did not have the strength to run far. He placed himself behind a tree and looked back at the shoes in misery.
No matter where he went, though, he could not escape the tracking shoes.
The Crystal Shoes walked in front of Han Sen, but they did not attempt to attach themselves to his feet. All they did was follow him.
The Crystal Shoes came before him, but Han Sen realized that they didn’t want to control him. It was a big relief, so he was able to just ignore them and rest by the tree for a while.
The shoes settled next to Han Sen. Whenever Han Sen chose to rest, the shoes rested. Whenever Han Sen walked, they followed suit If Han Sen had not been able to confirm that there was nothing in the space above them, he would have believed the shoes had an invisible wearer.
