Don't Speak Anything

Zhi Chang kept looking after her wounds, her bare skin was covered with extra cloth, the time seemed slower down its usual pace, the moments of grief usually prolong.

He cleaned the previous remedy and applied anew, third day Jen woke up, she was embarrassed to see her tattered clothing, "I was here, you don't need to move that fast," he gestured toward her wounds and she nodded.

He stood up and walked out of her room but before leaving he halted at the door, "The extra strips are for the wounds to wrap," since she was unconscious he did not wrap the strip but kept look out at the small remedy covers.

He left while closing the door behind.

Zhi Chang was glad that she woke up but now he was about to search that succumb who tried to ambush, he would make sure that fat bag equally suffer.

He was flaming with fury in his heart, he was not thinking anything.

After some time, Jen came out of her room, she has changed her dress and no one can tell that her wounds were still there just that new dress hide them well.

Jen did not directly looked at him but during walk casted a glance for short moment, she was shocked to see how messed up he was looking now, it seemed he was not eating anything nor he bothered to change his dress, his robes were got tainted when he clutched her in his embrace and it was still there that means it was same dress, he was holding her all the time, how could he dare to leave her alone and care to change his dress.

His stomach grumbled just when he was about to show anger, now she found out why his lips were looking dry.

He sighed purely.

"I am hungry, we should eat first," saying so she hurriedly brought out all the fruits and meals which she bought and stored during shopping with Lin'an.

She was unconscious but he was awake all the time without taking care of himself, one could easily notice the changes.

And it was Jen who cannot neglect even a minute detail.

"Since you are better, I will be going to find out that fat man who tried to ambush," he spoke after taking some food.

He saw Jen eating still, Jen was usually hungry after she recovered, she would eat lots of fruits and full meal to replenish her health, he was quite surprised and pleasantly noticing her.

"Mm, that fat man is not heart cultivator, and senior cannot fight with someone who has some bleak cultivation base," she ate her bite and spoke.

"Don't speak anything if you are not going to tell," he spoke.

Jen was speechless, she did not considered that Zhi Chang would be this angry but what made him angry? Perhaps she knew the answer or she was really unaware, it must be because she never thought it could cause him angry.

But since he has said so she choose to listen him.

"What does it means a bleak cultivation base?" he was puzzled by her answer.

"This, I am not sure but this is only reason that I suffered much," she answered while taking pieces of fruits.

Zhi Chang remembered her suffered, he was also curious but who would have thought that fat man was not only aiming ambush but using a bleak base.

"I understood but can you answer me why did you throw yourself in the danger?" he grimly spoke this time.

Jen heard and stopped because of his grim and worried tone, she has no answer.

"You cannot keep silence, you have to answer, who gave you permission to make this choice?" this time his tone showed how much he was angry yet he was asking serene and soberly.

Jen looked left and then right, probing on answer but there was nothing for excuse, what she was supposed to say? It was instinctive and impulsive, there was no time to make any decision.

Under his constant gaze, she instinctively stood up but then again sat down, she was unable to decide whether she should remain stand up or sit down, now she was standing again.

He took deep breathe and stepped ahead, and embraced her, "Can you behave like a junior even for once?" Jen closed her eyes.

"Explain what bleak base is?" he was still focused on his first thought.

"I don't know that's why I am thinking to challenge that fat man after I get better," she answered without thinking that Zhi Chang was not happy to hear her.

He sighed, he just told to behave junior for once but it seemed he need to remind her again and again until she learn it by heart.

Jen noticed and immediately smiled, "Alright, I don't know about the bleak base but I wanted to know about it, perhaps it could be the strong reason behind the present situation in this Manias, senior Zhi Chang is newly learned and the battle prowess is also unstable, in this situation facing such dominion might not bring any benefit, as long as we work together, we will be able to understand what was the cause of this strange difference, but I have to admit…" she stopped for a pause because she was biting on her lower lip, why because she was about to admit her mistake.

"Probably that dominion is dangerous for a supreme cultivator," she lowered her head because she just now claimed that she will be going to challenge that fat man.

"I will make sure he equally suffer," Zhi Chang spoke grimly.

"But I will go look for him after two days because I wanted to prepare strongly in these two days," he closed his hand into fist.

Jen heard and nodded in approval, it was serene decision, the enemy was level higher so Zhi Chang should be prepared to face any situation.

She was silent, someone was going to take revenge for her sake, despite knowing the strength of his enemy, she was not sure whether she should be happy or worried.

Zhi Chang went in his room and changed his dress then he walked out and took a tour to the market, soon he returned and started to practice the sustainability of his dominion, his stay inside the crystal bead was proving quite problematic and he finally could understand why Jen was worried for him.

But he can't always come up with this excuse, he has to work hard to make up for the loss.

Jen returned back in her room, while dressing her wounds she was curious where Zhi Chang got these herbs, these were definitely expensive.

Then she remembered that he got some gold pins in advance that means he spent all to buy these herbs?

Jen stood up to see him during his practice, she don't want to rest since his words were reverberating, after two days he would be challenging that fat man.

Zhi Chang controlled the flow of his dominion and increased the force then slowly spread in his surrounding, after making sure that he has marked his territory, his rage gathered up under the dominion forming a massive beast of rage, this was his first technique whish he learned in his home sphere.

He now knew what he should do, he needed to bring this technique equally higher level just like her present cultivation level, if the level of the technique and the level of cultivation complement then the dominion itself would become strong and invulnerable.

And it was only a first step according to Jen, the more he would practice it and learn, the better grip he could show.

Jen saw him practicing, she could observe how naturally he was familiar with his own cultivation base after all he was a genius of Yellow River, he must have learned many skilled to control his dominion back then those methods after a small study can be improved with the essence fiber of this sphere, just like she did during her first challenge, but she learned indirectly from her opponent.

No matter, what method you apply to learn it, the basic was the learning, as long as a cultivator was dedicated, one could learn it.

She did not speak anything because she was not interested to distract him, he was amid in his practice as well as learning, a distraction might not be good.

She was wandering around different Manias and learning though it was much difficult but it gave her much experience, if compared to her age she was much experienced with the ways of the world and how cultivators behave selfish usually in this sphere, the stronger could take whatever he need and the weaker can only choose to stay behind.

Jen was not sure if Zhi Chang could see or hear when he was inside the crystal bead but after he has seen people in the void and in this Manias, he was learning fast.
