Chapter 24 Almost died again
"Who dares to sneak into my place? You must be tired of living!"
Leon, who was about to run into the bush on the other side, came to an abrupt stop when he heard the loud angry voice of Quin Xuxu that rang from behind him.
Her voice showed that she was still inside the house, then who was approaching his room from the bushes then?
'Crap! Could it be an assassin?' Leon's furs stood on end and his thoughts ran wild.
Without a moment of hesitation, he turned back and jumped back into his room through the open window; changing into his human form, he hurriedly closed the window.
At the same time, Leon's ears picked up hushed voices.
"Looks like we've been discovered; everyone retreats!"
"As expected of a seventh-level martial artist, we will return for now"
At this moment, sounds of footsteps on the roof could be heard as Quin Xuxu arrived above Leon's room; looking beautiful under the soft touch of the moonlight and with a sword scabbard on her waist.
" Humph, don't even think about leaving!"
Quin Xuxu's voice echoed through the night as she unsheltered her sword and dashed forward.
Soon, the sounds became further and further away until Leon was unable to hear anything anymore.
He lay on his bed, trembling from fear.
" That was close; I almost ran into assassins; I would have died for sure," Leon mumbled to himself, his face pouring out sweat.
A thought suddenly flashed in his mind.
Does this mean that he would die if he tried to escape? Was staying here and preparing for the duel against that prime disciple the only way he could stay alive?
"Guess I'll have to train obediently; I still have a month so I can increase my strength," Leon said to himself with determination.
After a while, Quin Xuxu returned and came to look for Leon.
She told him that the assassins had formation flags with them and they managed to escape before she could catch them. She instructed Leon to be careful with his movements from now on and avoid going down the mountain until he was officially recognized as a disciple of the Falcon sect.
"I understand, master." Leon cupped his fist in gratitude; he would have died if not for his gorgeous master.
But that didn't mean that he would forget a crucial matter.

"Hahaha, yes! A wonderful material, I'll do great things with such a weapon!"
The cloaked figure laughed like a maniac at the sight of the struggling woman.
"Just you wait, Quin Xuxu, I'll get my revenge"
.......
Morning soon came, and rays of sunlight washed over the mountains and valleys of the falcon sect as disciples moved about with their daily training and other duties.
On the mountain of the Grand Elder, Leon's eyes opened slowly.
His mind was clear as water after having a good night's sleep, but he was suddenly thrown into confusion.
The feeling under him didn't feel like his bed, it was...very soft.
Turning his head, Leon saw a face staring down at him with a gentle gaze.
"You awake now little guy? Long time no see." Bai Quing smiled at Leon, who was in her embrace.
Leon "..."
Crap, when did this woman come into his room?!
Leon's heart raced, and his fur stood up; Bai Quing was holding him, and he was in his cat form!
'Call down, calm down, she won't suspect a thing if I'm calm'
Leon recited inwardly and his heartbeat rate slowed down to normal.
It is a good thing that he didn't change into his human form immediately after waking up; it would have been a disaster.
"I was wondering where you ran off to back then, so you came here. Is this brat your owner? Where did he even go? He left you all alone" Bai Quing raised Leon and asked with a bright smile on her face.
Leon was stunned by her expression since he didn't imagine her showing such a face; she was always so serious when around him, but that wasn't the issue right now.
'Unhand me, woman!'
Leon struggled a bit and Bai Quing released her hold on him, confused as to why the cat was suddenly struggling.
Immediately after he touched the ground, Leon turned toward the window and jumped out.
Bai Quing "???"
