Chapitre 140: That Can't Be Good

I clench my fists and quickly go back inside. I walk over to the bed to find Little Bun peacefully sleeping so I carefully crawl over and scoop him up before pulling the covers up over me. I'm not gonna think about it. If that woman shows back up in my dreams, I'll ask her to clear things up!

~~~~~

I frown when the sun hits my face so I turn over and pull the covers up. "Master! Bad news!" Little Bun says pulling at the covers. I frown and pull the covers back to look at him in question. His fluffy little tail twitches as he says "The barrier is cracking! They don't think it'll hold for another day."

I quickly sit up and ask "Did Bai Lei come back last night?" Little Bun shakes his head and says "I don't know. I just woke up and overheard the servants talking outside. What do we do?" I frown a bit before quickly getting out of bed and getting dressed.

As I walk out of the room, Little Bun jumps to my shoulder and holds on as I rush to the meeting hall. As I try to leave the courtyard, Ren suddenly appears before me and says "Did you forget what he told you before? You are to stay in the courtyard, no matter what."

I glare at him and say "I wouldn't leave unless it was important besides, everyone already knows I'm here. What's the point?" Ren grinds his teeth as he says "My hair has just started growing back, please stay still."

I sneer at him and say "If you don't move, your eyebrows are the next to go!" Ren's hands snap up to hide his eyebrows as he says "You truly are a monster! You can't leave the courtyard! The barrier has begun breaking so it isn't safe."

My face falls as my heart starts to race. I step closer to Ren and ask "What are they planning to do? Do they have enough people? What about weapon?" Ren nervously backs up a step as he says "Master isn't dumb. He and the other leaders are preparing to handle the people from the Under Realm but he won't be able to focus if he thinks you're running around causing trouble."

I bite my lip and nod my head as I try to remain calm. My head snaps up as I say "I'm going to go visit Lady Xue." Ren jumps at my sudden movement then nods his head as I start walking to her courtyard.

As I reach her courtyard, Biyu stops and glares at me with disdain as she turns to me saying "Lady Xue just left to check on her son." I sigh and roll my eyes as I turn to walk away. "You cause him nothing but trouble, you know." She says with hatred.

I freeze mid-step and grit my teeth. 'Not the time, not the time.' I tell myself as I decide to ignore her but before I can take another step, a large explosion is heard as the ground starts to shake! I reach out to the wall next to me as I look around in fear. What the hell!? A massive wave of power hits me, causing me to stumble back as I struggle to keep standing. It felt like a shock wave!

"Master! The barrier!! It broke!" Little Bun cries out and clutches onto my hair for dear life. "Shit!" I say turning around to find Biyu holding onto the wall as well. The shaking stops as sounds of battle are heard.

Biyu looks over in the direction of fighting before crying out "Bai Lei!!" She takes off running in the direction with a look of fear causing me to panic. I reach out and grab her as I say "Are you insane! You just got done bitching at me for causing him trouble and yet you run headfirst into danger!?"

She jerks her arm away from me and sneers at me with hatred as she says "I'm not you bitch! I can handle myself and help Bai Lei." She turns around to leave but something lands in front of us with a large cloud of dust.

As the dust settles, Biyu and I both stumble back in shock. A large man slowly stands up and smiles at us with an eerie look. His eyes were pitch black, not even the whites of his eyes were showing! Blood red markings are seen all over his arms and up the side of his face.

He cracks his neck and says "I can't tell you how nice it feels to be free again and look, two little beauties are here to welcome me." Little Bun's body shivers from fear as he quickly ducks into my hair to hide. Biyu clenches her fists as she quickly pulls power to her and attacks the man.

The man easily blocks the magic, letting it roll off him like it was nothing before attacking her. Biyu screams in terror as I race to her side. I hit her from the side, causing both of us to fall to the ground in a roll. The blast of power flies past us and hits the wall, shattering it to pieces. She pushes me off and says "Don't touch me!" She reaches out and slaps me across the face, shocking me.

Did this bitch just slap me for saving her!?! She quickly jumps to her feet and turns to attack the man again but a bloody hand suddenly appears out of her back, splashing me with warm blood! I stumble back as I struggle to stand.

The man slowly removes his hand and lifts it to his mouth as his tongue slowly begins licking the dark red blood. Biyu stumbles back and clutches her chest as she turns to look at me with shock. My hands tremble as I look at her in shock, mirroring her own.

The man moans as he savors her blood but what happens next, has me questioning my decision in coming back to this world. Her large eyes look to me in fear as she reaches out to me. I lift a shaky hand out to her but her face suddenly contorts as her skin starts sinking in!
