Awakening of the Ancient: Rise of the Fallen 69 Chapter 65: I'm not leaving

Suddenly there was pin-drop silence.

The girl had her mouth open as she looked at Xu Ming in shock.

"Y-you watched me last night?" She asked with an impossible look on her face. Her face was getting red and it looked like she was about to lose control.

"I... I saw you leaving when I was coming here to take a bath. " Xu Ming hurriedly thought of an excuse and lied.

Although he didn't understand why she was so mad, he still felt like that was the right thing to do at the moment.

The girl's anger somewhat calmed down as she heard his explanation.

"I'm willing to forgive you for what happened today. Get out right now." She said to him.

" I can't leave." Xu Ming replied as he shook his head.

" Leave right now, I'm telling you! Don't make me use force." She said with an annoyed expression on her face.

"I..." Xu Ming fell into deep thought.

His ring was still going through the process, thus he couldn't leave.

"I can't leave. I haven't finished my bath." He said.

" Your bath is over. Leave right now or I'll throw you out of the water." The girl said as she looked at him.

Xu Ming didn't move in the slightest. He completely ignored her. He has decided that he wouldn't leave, no matter what. Letting his ring complete the process was the most important thing for him.

"Y-you! You're forcing my hand." The girl was angry and began using his cultivation.

She extended her hand and caught Xu Ming's hands as he pulled him. She wanted to throw him toward the edge of the lake.

Xu Ming felt the force and realized what she wanted to do.

He also used his 9th stage Body Refining Realm strength as he opposed the girl and pulled her towards him.

"Huh, "The girl let out a surprised noise as she was pulled towards the boy she was trying to throw out.

Her body collided with Xu Ming. Her breasts stuck to his chest while her hands wrapped around his back in surprise.

"Y-You bastard!" She raised her hand in an effort to slap Xu Ming, but Xu Ming caught her hand as he glared at her.

"I don't understand why you're so angry, but I'm not leaving before I'm done here. If you want to, then get out yourself. "  He said as he slightly pushed her backward.

The girl just gazed at him with a stunned look on her face.

After their initial exchange, she was clear about the one.

The boy that was in front of her, was definitely stronger than her.

What she didn't know was that Xu Ming only had the strength, but no skills.

She understood that she wouldn't be able to take him out. She also couldn't call for the guards as she herself wasn't allowed to be here.

She wondered if she should leave, but immediately gave up on this thought.

'I'm not wearing anything right now. If I leave, he'll see everything.' She thought.

Although she knew that Xu Ming had most probably already seen her nude, she still couldn't let him see her again. Even if he was a kid, she didn't want to leave.

She stayed in her original position and didn't leave. Her body was covered in water up to her neck. Only her head was outside water.

Xu Ming stayed still as he let his ring absorb the Origin Energy.

The time was spent in pure silence as no one said anything. They both just kept looking at each other.

Half an hour later, Xu Ming finally noticed that his ring had stopped absorbing.

He waited for ten more minutes, just to be sure that there was no change.

Nothing happened and Xu Ming was sure that whatever his ring was doing, was completed.

"I'm done. I'm leaving." Xu Ming said to the silent girl.

He started swimming towards the shore.

He came out of the water and got dressed before he left.

Finally, the girl started moving. She was relieved as she saw Xu Ming leave.

"That bastard. Finally, he left." The girl said as she also swam towards the shore.

" Fortunately, the water wasn't cold, or I would be having a really hard time right now. " She muttered as she came out of the water.

She dried her body and wore her clothes as she left.

Xu Ming entered his hut and fell asleep. He slept for a few hours and at 6 am in the morning.

Since today was the Outer Sect disciple exam, There were no classes.

Xu Ming didn't have to go clean.

In fact, he had a more important thing to do. That was to participate in the exams.

The Exams were supposed to begin at 8 am in the morning.

He got dressed and left his place as he walked towards the outer arena. This was the place where the exams were supposed to begin.

He walked towards the place with his participation badge in his pocket.

When he got there, he was stopped by an outer sect disciple.

"Wait. You can't enter. Only the ones participating in the exams are allowed to leave."  The guard informed him.

" I'm a participant." Xu Ming said as he showed him his badge.

The disciples couldn't help but be surprised as he saw the badge. Surprisingly, Xu Ming was the youngest participant they had seen so far.

"You can enter." They told him.

Xu Ming entered the place and saw that there were already a few people there. Most of them were older than 10 years of age.

Surprisingly, the girl was there as well. 

"You!!!" The girl let out in shock as she noticed Xu Ming.

Her words attracted the attention of others as well.

A Murmur started in the place as everyone looked at Xu Ming with shock. 

Xu Ming was confused as to why they were looking at him like that.

'Did the girl tell others about last night?' He thought.
