Chapter 78: Mission complete.

The orange glow of the sunset covered the pagoda's entrance. rigid as a stone, Zheng Li stared at it. Xunhue watched him, he did not move from the position since Zhi Rui entered the pagoda. it's been more than an hour.

Xunhue bit her lips, she closed her eyes and started meditating. This was the first loyal man she met, She kept having thoughts about him. But Zhi Rui's scary grin. appeared on her mind every time she tried to start a conversation.

BOOM!

The ground shook. Xunhue snapped her eyes open.

Zheng Li ran into the pagoda's entrance.

Boom! boom! boom!

Everything shook, Zheng Li was already weak due to fatigue and his foot sliped.

An absurdly amount of energy surged above them. The clouds dispersed in a circular form, a mirror of at least twenty meters in diameter formed above the pagoda.

Zheng Li ignored it and he threw himself inside the pagoda. two steps inside, He felt an impact on his chest, he looked down. the familiar black hair belonging to Zhi Rui shine in his eyes. He felt the smell of Zhi Rui. momentarily he stayed in the position until he heard the soft sound of steady breathing. The world around trembled fiercely, but his eyes turned soft. He picked her up.

Zhi Rui's hair dropped over his chest. Feeling the tremor shaking the whole pagoda. He walked out with the sleeping Zhi Rui.

Going out of the dark hallway the setting suns' last rays of light shined on his face.

Xunhue, blankly stared at him holding the sleeping Zhi Rui.

"This is so beautiful." She couldn't hold it back. her cheeks glowed red and she looked to the side."

Zheng Li, heard it and looked at her, He then looked back at Zhi Rui and his smiled grew gentler, He spoke softly to not bother Zhi Rui.

"There's a girl, that stayed outside, a few hundred meters from here to my left. She only saw the other two. I struck her unconscious from the back. Zheng Li rose his head to stare at the confuse Xunhue "Use her well and start to work on your end of the deal."

Zheng Li Finished talking. He turned away and walked to the middle of the forest. "Zhi Rui fatigues herself while fighting the demonic cultivators. I'm taking her home to rest. Tell that to the elders on the way." Xunhue watched dumbfoundedly as his image disappeared. "W-What about Zhi Rui's end of the deal?" Her mutterings wen away with the wind.

The breeze passed by her dazed face. "Cough!" startled She turned around, floating in front of her was two old men and one old lady, wearing a deep green robe, they were the inner elders of the sect.

Xunhue sighed and understood, why Zheng Li took Zhi Rui away so quickly, Her mind was in such disarray that only now, she noticed the cold wind and the moonlight shined in her skin. It was too late, they couldn't risk staying any longer. Xunhue sighed and opened her mouth to speak. But she stopped midway, the elder's faces were somber. they were all staring at the place above the pagoda, the old lady, appeared to grow old several years as she waved her hand. the result o her movement created a small wind. insignificant.

Yet when it reached the pagoda, everything on its way turned to nothing Xunhue eyes shined.

The old lady looked at Xunhue "It wasn't my attack That destroyed it. Whatever was holding it whole. is gone. I just sent the dust away.

Xunhue was incredulous. Her mind went to Zhi Rui and her promise. Then her benefactor's voice speaking about using itself to keep the seal for another hundred years. Xunhue connected the dots.

Covering her mouth in surprise Xunhue thought.

She not only took the rest of the legacy, but she also took everything inside!

-----

Zhi Rui woke up, feeling the presence beside her, She sighed.

"You act like a creep. That's why you scared the old Zhi Rui." She spoke without caring for his feelings.

Zheng Li chuckled, He reached out and held Zhi Rui's hand.

Feeling the warmth and care, Zhi Rui narrowed her eyes. "You got quite bold for a guardian dog."

Zheng Li stopped and his eyes shined. "If you don't give the dog his treat, then he'll take it himself."

Zhi Rui pulled her hand back with revulsion, her eyes turned bloodshot.

but slowly she calmed down, He did just saved her, and proved to be an idealistic moron. Zhi Rui tried to find a way to reard and punish at the same time. Her eyes glowed and Zhi Rui could feel his subconscious feelings and the color of his aura.

Zhi Rui smiled, She got up and sat on the edge of the huge bed, standing face to face with him. Zhi Rui grinned. her thighs opened and the robe she was wearing loosely fell to the side revealing the spring underneath.

Zheng Li froze. Zhi Rui held his hands and brought it over her smooth thighs. His breathing went rough like a dog in heat.

Zhi Rui cackled. She then raised her left leg high. Zheng Li was entering in a frenzied state. Zhi Rui saw his eyes, and with a malicious glint in her eyes she shoved her leg down on his chest, THUMP!

Zheng Li hit the couch on the other side of Zhi Rui's bedroom. Before getting up. Zhi Rui stepped on his chest. "You might've proved your loyalty. but that doesn't mean I'll let you hump me as a reward. Do you think I'm a whore?"

Coughing blood ZHeng li looked at up.

Zhi Rui. stood in a way that his head was between her feets and the scenario made him crazy.

Zhi Rui's eyes shone red. she stomped on his chest "AM I A WHORE!?"

Zheng Li coughed blood yet his gaze remained, and he screamed "NO!YOU'RE NOT!"

With a smile, Zhi Rui crouched down. "It doesn't matter how I treat you as, nobody, not even the closest person to me, can take liberties with me without my consent. Talk one more time about taking your treats willfully and I'll have to discipline you again. as Zhi Rui spoke her eyes shined with energy. She saw clearly, what turned him on.

She spoke with disdain in her eyes. "Since my dog is not obedient. I'll have to visit my other subordinates. Looking straight at his eyes. Zhi Rui spoke. slowly. "And the first one I'll meet will be Izaya."

Without another look at him, Zhi Rui got up went to her bathroom.

Zheng Li heard the water splashing. But his blood did not stop boiling. He did not understand it himself. But What Zhi Rui just did, gave him more arousal than anything before. His face turned red in shame of himself. he got up. and in a second disappeared from Zhi Rui's room.

-----

A hundred meters away, Zheng Li appeared inside his own room. with a thought, a crystal ball floated in front of him. the room was dark, only the dim light of the crystal ball shined through the room.

Bianca appeared on the crystal ball. She looked at Zheng Li's red face and chuckled.

"So, Did you managed to prove yourself to her? did you made the death of my disciples worth?"

Zheng Li scoffed with his stone cold face. "You saw it all, no need to pretend to save me from shame."

Bianca laughed out loud."Right, I saw everything. And I know it's not my place as a mother to say this, but son, you quite liked it, you should be more sincere with yourself."

Zheng Li felt his blood boil, and after a deep breath, he shoved the crystal ball back onto the storage pouch.

-----

tears stained Bianca's face as she laughed. her head bent back. and she held her stomach. Laughing at Zhi Rui's pitiful future's plan, laughing at Zheng Li's indecisiveness between herself and Zhi Rui and his faith.

And even more. She laughed at Herself, for not foreseeing, the amount of damage Zhi Rui could cause. She expected the sect to grow aware of demonic cultivators, but with the underground trial portal here. Strong people with extreme backings, will rain down on this part of the continent.

Bianca becomes tired of laughing and sat back down o her throne.

"Level six, once you reach that level. I can finally become venerable. even more, I'll be the one blessed by lust then". Bianca laughed visualizing her future.
