Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 515: I know someone who can help

The torches at the military camps have lit up as the sun has set long time ago.

After the trip to dungeon and watched the children that would be used by Modama, Senja could guess roughly what he was planning to do, but still there were loopholes here and there that she wasn't able to connect with each other.

She needed more information and the only person who could provide it wasn't there.

While waiting for Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun returned, she ordered her dinner to been brought inside the tent.

Later on the dishes that brought by a soldier came, she gestured him to go after he put the dishes and asked if she needed anything.

When Senja was in the middle of savoring her meal, the curtain of the tent opened and it revealed Xiao Tianyao in his traveling cloak, looked spent but handsome like always.

Senja felt ecstatic when she saw him, but her bright smiled dimmed when there was someone followed behind Xiao Tianyao.

Xiao Jun was just walking into the tent when he sensed something shimmering lunged toward his direction, out of instinct he tilted his head to dodge it. He saw a silver spoon shivering right before his eyes. He missed it by an inch.

His head abruptly whipped to the direction where the silver spoon was coming from and Senja's angry figured loomed in his line of sight, she was holding another silver spoon in her right hand and threw it at Xiao Jun again.

This time, Xiao Jun simply caught it mid- air and gave a chuckled. "This is how you greet your brother in law?"

'"Brother in law your head!" Senja snapped angrily while Xiao Tianyao simply gave her a kiss on her forehead that eased her tense slightly. "How dare you set me up!" She still annoyed by Xiao Jun's schemes.

"I didn't set you up." Xiao Jun made his way into the tent and sat on the chair in front of Senja while Xiao Tianyao took her right side. "I help you to increase the progress." He said lazily with a sense of humor.

Senja didn't heed his jovial words as she tried tugging on Xiao Tianyao's waist and reached for the sword that still hung on his hip.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Tianyao flustered with Senja's hands was on his body.

Without lifting her head, Senja replied coldly. "Make you a single child." She said begrudgingly.

With that answer, Xiao Tianyao burst into a fit laughter. His laugh ringing in Senja's ears melodiously that made her stopped groping him.

"I would love to be a single child." Xiao Tianyao said while kissing her forehead and patted her head lovingly.

In the other side of the table, Xiao Jun was speechless, he was tongue tied by their bantered. "Did you just plan on my murder right in front of me?" He asked incredulously.

Senja sneered at him and continued to eat, forgetting her previous intention.

Afterward, two soldiers came with other dishes for both of them as they were eating in silence.

"What you got?" Xiao Tianyao asked Senja when they had put down their bowl. "I heard you visited the dungeon."

Senja nodded. "Modama used those children to fight against you."

"How he used them? They are only a child." Xiao Jun refused the idea that Modama could use those children to harm his soldier, let alone in the war.

Children in the battlefield? It was simply didn't make sense.

"He wanted to make you think that way." Senja filled her glass to the brim and chugged the water down. "You will not guard yourself against children."

Xiao Jun and Xiao Tianyao looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes, still hard to decipher Senja's statement.

"Using children for war?" Xiao Jun arched his brow. "That's hard to believe." He mumbled, deep in thought.

"I think that's make sense." Xiao Tianyao spoke, "L Clan and Mystic Clan are his accomplice and they have been using children ever since my first encounter with them."

"It's hard to believe, but the children inside the dungeon said it." Senja mumbled, remembered what the little girl had screamed. "Those children are talking in Ki language."

Upon hearing Senja's statement, both Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun recalled that Senja could speak Ki language. Their eyes lit up while eagerly asked her.

"Did you get something?" Xiao Jun leaned forward. "Did they start to talk?"

"Yes, but only one word."

Xiao Tianyao tilted his head questioningly. "What is that?"

"Shoot north tomorrow." Senja said emotionlessly. "I think Modama had drugged them with something to keep them obedient."

"Doctor Lin had checked on them and there was nothing abnormal about them." Xiao Jun said, contemplating. Maybe he missed something.

"Even doctor Lin didn't know what happened with them" Senja mumbled, but then her eyes shining brightly as she shot Xiao Jun a look. "I think I know who can help us" She said carefully, but before Senja could say anything Xiao Tianyao had cut her off icily.

"No." He said curtly, with a simple word like that it could contain with assertiveness, anger and disgust when he said it.
