Purple Dawn Till Dusk : Dearest Through The Time Chapter 388
Advertisement
Days passed as Senja and Xiao Tianyao moved forward toward the Mountain Sui Sword Sect.
Fortunately, nothing harmful happened along the rest of their journey. As predicted, they were late by a day from the appointed time.
By the time they arrived, Xiao Jun had burned with anxiety and irritation. Especially when he saw Senja came along with Xiao Tianyao.
She could tell that Xiao Jun put the blame on her head for their delay. But, Senja could be careless since it wasn't her fault.
Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun agreed to meet in the nearest village at one of the quiet restaurant near the Mountain Sui Sword Sect.
From where Senja was standing she could see the Great Mountain Sui and the magnificent building on top of it that she assumed was the remaining of Sword Sect.
She couldn't help, but thinking about Uncle Su. The last time when she handed over Xiao Wang Wei's token, He told her that he would visit the Mountain Sui Sword Sect. Could it be possible that Uncle Su used the token for digging some information?
After all, Uncle Su was Greenhill Mountain's people and Xiao Jun apparently was a part of them.
Senja dismounted her horse and follow Xiao Tianyao entered the restaurant. In the corner of the room, Xiao Jun was sitting uncomfortable beside a window while spacing out.
Yet, when Senja and Xiao Tianyao came closer he raised his head and glared at Xiao Tianyao, but the moment his eyes caught a girl followed behind his brother, his glare turned into question and then glared again.
"Why did you bring her?" Xiao Jun asked Xiao Tianyao in dangerous low voice, the menace behind his tone wasn't going unnoticed by Senja.
"Because I can't leave her." Xiao Tianyao answered his brother with the same tone as he gestured Senja to sit beside him.

The prejudice from Xiao Jun made Senja uncomfortable as she sat beside Xiao Tianyao under his brother scrutinized gaze.
Didn't know what the idea was running through Xiao Jun's mind, but Senja could be sure all of them was about her unexpected arrival. Probably he thought Senja was clinging onto Xiao Tianyao and act like spoiled little brat to force his brother to let her come along.
Well, Xiao Jun didn't have good impression since he knew that Senja has the same ability like Luna and Senja also didn't impress by his attempt to murder her, the last time they met.
Even though, they were act like nothing was happening and there wasn't any antipathy between them, but actually they were always on guard with each other.
"We are on mission not vacation." Xiao Jun commented.
It was rare to see Xiao Jun was so irritated like this, but he made sure that his disapproval of Senja's involvement was crystal clear to see.
"I don't know which part of almost killed is like a vacation for you." Senja snapped back at him.
She had gone through many troubles and dealt with much despair moment that she thought, she couldn't handle for the rest of her life, so she wouldn't give a chance for Xiao Jun to talking like that to her.
The furrowed on his brows, showed them that he didn't grasp with the meaning of Senja's word.
"Xiao Wang Wei attacked us and he poisoned your brother." Senja blurted out. "And if it wasn't because of me, He would have been died by now. You have to thankful for that." Senja said clearly. How long did he want to think that she wanted to harm his brother?
Shock apparent in Xiao Jun's expression while Xiao Tianyao grimaced at the way she conveyed her words. It was indeed because of her that Xiao Tianyao still breathing in this moment, but why it sounded a little bit off?

Xiao Jun averted his gazed from Senja and gave questioning look to Xiao Tianayao, asked him to elaborate further.
Xiao Tianyao's expression returned to his normal calm self before he answered Xiao Jun's inquiring gaze. He summarized the things that had happened before, as short as he could.
Senja wondered if Xiao Jun could grasp the detail by the very short explanation, but seemingly he was fine with the way Xiao Tianyao recited the event.
She shrugged nonchalantly. They were indeed brother.
"… By now Xiao Zi and Xiao Wang Wei have known about Senja's ability." Xiao Tianyao said.
"It's not good." Xiao Jun mumbled.
Both brothers seemingly communicated in silence after a terse comment while Senja was sipping her tea and eating an apple.
If Xiao Zi and Xiao Wang Wei had known her ability then nothing they could do to conceal it, moreover they would go to war, so it shouldn't have many effect, right?
"We need to go now…" Finally Xiao Jun concluded as he stood up. "Are you sure you will bring her?" He nodded at Senja's direction.
Yet, like usual, Xiao Tianyao was too lazy to answer the obvious question. He stood up and held Senja's wrist as he ushered them out of the restaurant.
Xiao Jun followed them, with irritated tone he talked to Senja. "I hope you don't trouble me."
Upon hearing Xiao Jun statement, Senja turned around and faced him. "Don't worry, I don't have intention to trouble you, the only person that I would like to put in trouble for the rest of my life is your brother, not you."
After saying that Senja hugged Xiao Tianyao's arm and pushed open the door.
In the other hand, Xiao Jun was speechless by her declaration and couldn't help, but chuckled.

Tales from the Triverse
Tales from the Triverse is part detective drama, part fantasy adventure and part space opera. I’m influenced by the likes of Iain M Banks, Isaac Asimov and ND Stevenson and work including The Wire and Gotham Central. It begins with an incident two hundred years ago which crashed three parallel universes together. Portals open up in 18th century London, sending England down a very different path. We pick up events in the 1970s, with the Metropolitan Police having established a new department to handle portal-related criminal activity. The story is about intolerance, immigration, multiculturalism and power. It’s about what happens when incompatible viewpoints are weaponised to seed discontent, and the efforts of some to create a fairer world. In the tradition of the best science fiction, fantasy and crime fiction, I’m using the setting to examine themes that matter to me in the real world. Who is it for?If you like science fiction or fantasy, or a mix of both, this is for you. It’s my first foray into crime fiction, but I hope if you’re a fan that you’ll enjoy yourself - especially if you’re looking for something a bit different. I write fiction that is optimistic, progressive and empathetic. Bad things can happen to good people in the stories, but the overall arc tends to be hopeful. Note that if it were a movie, Tales from the Triverse would be a 15 certificate in the UK.
