Chapter 265: Memories of the past Part6

"What??? Are you being serious? This is suicidal!!!" Charlotte couldn't believe her eyes.

She had heard about several different types of body tempering but had never heard anything as crazy as this.

"Umm… It's okay. Don't worry about it." Tang Yue smiled. 

She was about to ask her for help when she couldn't help but notice the obvious lash marks on Charlotte's back.

Back in the forests, she hadn't seen it properly, but now that she looked at it closer, it looked extremely brutal.

Tang Yue immediately felt bad.

She knew very well just how prideful and pampered Charlotte was.

She really didn't have to endure all of this to such an extent. How could she not be moved?

She silently walked towards the woman and took the bottle of wound healing potion from her hands.

Tang Yue then helped Charlotte lie down and carefully undid the clothes, revealing only her upper back.

Charlotte's face flushed immediately and the woman turned into a ripe tomato, but she didn't oppose any of Tang Yue's actions.

Charlotte silently smiled and enjoyed the small gesture of affection as Tang Yue gently applied the potion on her back.

Any wound healing potion acted very fast, not to mention the high end ones which Charlotte carried around.

Besides, Charlotte herself was a Saint realm expert, and her body was extremely tempered.

This being the case, all the wounds were merely superficial flesh wounds.

So the wounds and the scratches disappeared almost as soon as the potion touched the skin, not even leaving the smallest of scars behind.

And within seconds, Tang Yue was already done applying the medicine to her back.

But the woman on her lap seemed to be very comfortable lying down and didn't exhibit any intention of getting up.

Tang Yue chuckled in amusement. She didn't mind it and decided to pamper the girl some more.

She took out some herbal oils and started massaging the elf's smooth and silky skin.

It felt heavenly to Charlotte and she had a blissful happy expression on her face.

But unfortunately, Charlotte had reaped quite a bit of bad karma and the heavens didn't allow her to enjoy the moment for too long.

Not long after the massage session started, the smithy door creaked open and a little kid stepped inside.

He saw Tang Yue smiling and absentmindedly massaging Charlotte's back.

And then he saw the blissful look on Charlotte's face.

Xander's rage instantly erupted. He clenched his fists and  a villainous look appeared on his face.

He was in an extremely foul mood. He felt as if he was slowly and surely losing Tang Yue to this scheming vixen.

"Big sis, my back is also aching." He pouted and without any hesitation, directly jumped onto Charlotte's back.

He didn't show any mercy and even used some of his strength while doing so.

Charlotte let out a loud yelp. That hurt you little bastard! 

Wait, how did this imp manage to hurt an actual Saint realm expert? 

Her eyes widened in surprise and she quickly sat up straight in alarm.

Tang Yue didn't expect that the small rascal to directly jump onto her lap and even she was surprised.

But she could only laugh at the child who now laid on her lap, similar to how Charlotte had been lying before.

She shook her head in amusement and gave the little one a massage as well.

Xander sighed helplessly. Once upon a time, or rather just a few weeks ago, he was a lofty existence.

He was the revered Crown Prince of Eldoria, an existence who everyone feared and respected.

But now… somehow… things had come to this point.

In the past, Xavier had often told him that love changes a man, but he had always rebuked him by saying mean things in return.

And now, Xander, somehow found himself competing for such petty and small things.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. 

After indulging these two for a while, Tang Yue finally returned back to her grind.

She requested Charlotte to stand guard for her and stepped into the center of the rune formation.

Tang Yue then rotated her cultivation base and used her mana and blood to activate the rune formation.

A bright light instantly flooded the small space, but mysteriously none of it leaked outside.

To any passerby, the smithy would only look like its plain old normal run down state.

But inside the building, more precisely inside an oval shaped boundary, like a dome, a small storm was brewing slowly.

Even Charlotte and Xander were unable to observe anything happening inside. Only Tang Yue knew what was happening within the barrier.

Xander especially was extremely curious. If he as a Demi God couldn't observe the domain and use his soul sense to poke a hole in it, the domain rune had to be of extremely high quality.

How did a serpentine spirit beast get a hold of such high quality rune? 

Before he unraveled one secret, ten other secrets popped up. This snake was truly a sly woman!!! 

He knew that Tang Yue would have never in a million years revealed all of these secrets to him voluntarily, especially considering his reputation.

Xander felt that he had really lucked out by choosing the disguise that he did. 

Otherwise, Tang Yue wouldn't have let her guard down and revealed things like this. 

Everyone had a weak spot. And the snake's weak spot was clearly her parents.

Xander could tell that everything about her parents affected her.

She saw that the kid was an orphan and she immediately took pity on him.

She saw that Kosa was a kind father and she immediately showered love and affection on him, even settling some of his problems.

Though the woman was extremely tough and strong mentally, she really had this one big weak spot.

Xander didn't look down on her though. Instead, he thought that this weakness actually made her stronger.

It meant that she hadn't completely closed herself off from others and shut herself off emotionally.

She still had the ability to be kind and generous to others, despite how she was treated by her own family.

Xander sighed. He wished that he could embrace her tightly and make her feel secure and loved.

A warm smile surfaced on his face as the little kid lovingly watched the translucent dome, which trembled and crackled occasionally.
