Avery made her way towards Kylo. Kylo did not even turn around when he heard her happy laughter

"Hehehe, my dear master, don't you know the basics??"

Avery asked cheerfully. Without even giving Kylo any time to reply she continued in her teasing tone

"A cultivator cannot be a coward." She said in an enlightening tone.

This was definitely nonsense! True a cultivator cannot be a coward. But that does not mean they should foolishly risk their life.

There is a difference between being a fool and being a coward.

It is foolish for three cultivators of Qi condensation stage to fight a divine core stage expert.

But it is cowardly if you do not fight three Qi condensation stage experts even though you are a Divine Core Stage expert!

That was how drastic the situation was right now.

And in that situation Kylo definitely made the right choice. And Avery knew it!

But why would she let go of a chance to get a little payback? She was not a fool to let go of this opportunity.

She looked at her master, Kylo, who did not even bothered to reply.

It seemed as if he was immersed in studying the formation, or as if he was thinking about what happened just now.

One could even mistaken it as someone who was scared shitless.

[Or maybe he is just embarassed to show his face after running like that.... that maybe why he is ignoring me... hehehe]

Avery could not help but feel a degree of schadenfreude.

She walked slowly but rythimically. Just from the sound of the footsteps it would seem as if a great master was just arriving.

She stopped and stood beside Kylo.

"*sigh* how come I got such a coward master...." She continued in a mock sad tone.

She closed her eyes in 'grief'. Even her expression seemed too real.

But the tone at which she was talking with Kylo, just showed how much glad she was feeling at that moment.

But before she could continue with her teasing...

*pah*

... another crisp sound of a slap resounded through the cave.

"D-Dammit!!" Avery woke up from her 'reverie' and without wasiting a second immediately retreated with a grunt.

[I got careless.] She got more furious when she saw Kylo grin at her from ear to ear.

It would be a lie to say Kylo was not enjoying slapping her butt again and again. He was even opening and closing his fist as if imagining the sensation of her butt.

[Ahh! I feel refreshed!

I should just spank her whenever I am in a difficult situation....] decided Kylo solemnly.

Avery suddenly got chills and shivered even though there was no wind. She looked and blinked her beautiful eyes at Kylo and thought

[What is this feeling....?]

Kylo looked at her and then shook his head letting out a lamenting sigh and said

"You should really go through the basics my little Avery...

A cultivator should learn from their past mistakes."

"ugh!" She was speechless.

It was because, it was actually her who started this 'learn the basics' teasing. Who knew it would be turned on her in less than a minute.

And what was even worse was that the situation this time made it sound even more authentic than when Avery spoke.

At the end, with an angry face she returned to her original place puffing her cheeks, this time without letting her guard down.

Seeing the cautious look on her charming face, Kylo could not help but let out a chuckle which did nothing but earn him another angry glare.

Kylo shook his head with a smile and flushing out all of his thoughts, he beckoned the claymore which was lying on the ground.

He once again started walking towards the formation, this time with the sword held in his hand.

Avery once again glued her eyes on Kylo, this time even she got a hint or two about what was going on.

[It seems only the chosen ones can enter the formation.] She pondered with a thoughtful face.

[Maybe those orbs are really something great.]

She squinted her eyes at the formation before once again looking at Kylo.

Kylo this time walked straight and only stopped ten metres away from the formation. The formation, as expected, started glowing once again.

Kylo, with a little hesitation, pointed the sword towards the formation.

Avery who was watching Kylo attentively was stunned with what happened.

The formation which was almost threatening her life vanished!

[Where did it go?!]

Yes from her point of view, she could see the formation, which was glowing suddenly vanish in thin air in less than a second.

[Was this his doing...?] Avery looked at Kylo in shock.

She could see Kylo had already expected this since he was simply standing there and in the next second something unbelievable happened!

Something that made her forget the little pain she had on her butt.

Something that made her doubt her life.

Her eyes were wide opened with what was happening in front of her

"W-wh-WHAT THE HELLLLL?!?!?!"
