Chapter 894 - 15.113
Weeks passed, and the relationship between Han Shun and Bai Shijue cooled down a little.
There was a strange awkwardness whenever they were together, mostly because Bai Shijue always thought that Han Shun was hiding something, while Han Shun would react strongly whenever Bai Shijue asked him whether Han Shun was hiding something.
"Bai Gege, I will never hurt you! Why would I hurt you? You’re the most precious person in my heart. You ARE my world!" Han Shun claimed insistently whenever Bai Shijue asked if he had a secret that he couldn’t tell.
Bai Shijue knew that he couldn’t pry more. But he grew alarmingly suspicious as Han Shun often dodged a few topics, like how fast his cultivation developed and how smart he was for knowing every part of Lost Mist Forest.
[Pupa, do you think he is hiding something?]
[Pupa: That’s fairly obvious. Han Shun was never the best at keeping secrets. He is a simple-minded brat in the end.]
[Pupa: But I don’t think you can pry more. Just let him be if he didn’t want to tell you. The more you pressed about it, the more Han Shun will withdraw himself from you.]
[You’re right, I’m just worried...."

The Looming Forest Celestial Beast hunting was held during the harvest season in the immortal world. Where the forest fruits ripen, and the celestial beats were all out of their hiding, many high-ranked celestial beasts were wandering around the Loom Forest, searching for food or hunting for one.
Han Shun with Bai Shijue was already present with the other sect elders. They met with the rest of the participants from other sects in Plum Blossom Immortal Sect’s training ground.
