25 You Can Feel Good Being Alone, but Not Happy.

You Can Feel Good Being Alone, but Not Happy.

Inside her now renewed quarters, Zhi Rui was standing in a space she cleared by throwing things aside. Zhun Xuying looked attentively at her

"You do this part slowly and steady, then you follow by fast and swiftly."

She glanced at Zhun Xuying. "Have you understood it?"

Zhun Xuying hesitantly nodded.

"Let me see it then."

Zhi Rui watched her doing it from the beginning.

When Zhun Xuying came, after shopping with Izumi Zhi Rui did not ask anything, but simply gave her a healing pallet and led her into training.

for a person who suffered similar things in the past, she knows what is good and what is not. And she needed Zhun Xuying motivated.

then why not give a little?

"Am I doing right miss?"

"You have to be steadier and swifter. keep trying, you'll know it when you hit the spot."

Zhi Rui took a book and sat on the couch.

"Young miss where did this came from?

Zhi Rui di not raised her head" it's an exercise for the outer disciples of the light sect. it's the only one who does not require consuming crystals, or cores."

feeling a lack of reaction Zhi Rui frowned and looked at Zhun Xuying.

She was glowing slightly pink and was effortlessly doing the exercises.

her eyes seemed to be in a trance

She had a warm feeling around her as she finished the last movement.

Zhun Xuying looked at her own hands then atZhi Rui, She couldn't describe it,she just felt sowonderful she could feel her core attracting energy from around her, nourishing her body

Zhi Rui stood up and grabbed her arm softly they both closed her eyes.

Zhi Rui the inner core of Zhun Xuying was pink almost white, the color of the cultivators from the light sect.

'Grade A talent. Only grade A talent could possibly understand and reproduce the exercise this fast.'

Zhi Rui opened her eyes an looked at the joyful woman. 'She doesn't understand her situation, or she wouldn't be like this.

If someone discovered her talent right now she would at max, reach level five, and that is using treasures and unending training and meditation.

'But who'd invest so much?'

But for Zhun Xuying it's the best option getting rid of me and my father and staying under the wings of an immortal sect

While just a branch in the far corner of the continent, for her, is nothing short of paradise. The biggest fish in bucked is still king.

If I don't tell her she'll find out on her own, and resent me for it. at that time I won't be able to take her in. But if I do tell she'll jump right at the opportunity, and I lost her anyway... Or do I?'

Zhun Xuing felt the state she was in disperse, she then looked at the pensive face of Zhi Rui.

She cleared her throat.

Zhi Ri looked at her

Zhun Xuying took a deep breath as she started to explain everything that happened to her, before coming here, she felt that in this good feeling she won't be affected by the memories.

Zhi Rui listened calmly as Zhujn Xuyin spoke

When Zhun Xuying concludedZhi Rui closed her eyes.

'Really, the crown prince? of everyone, it had to be the crown prince.

And not only the crown prince but my father also, he will without a doubt Found a way to punish me.

Zhi Rui sighed

'At least I know who's the one giving the orders now.'

Zhi Rui looked at the woman in front of her.

"Zhun Xuying I have a proposal for you."

Zhun Xuying tilted her head.

Zhi Rui continued.

" You were born with a high aptitude to cultivation.

Now, normally you would do a test by the age of twelve to thirteen and enter a sect. and have a realistic chance of becoming an immortal.

But as you know, you're not lucky. You're thirty years old, thirty wasted years, in their eyes. You can at most reach the maximum of level 4 with high investments, Maybe level five if you manage to find a precious treasure, but you would not become immortal.

Be that as it may, life as a level four cultivator is infinitely greater than you what you ever dreamed of having.

and to get that life all you have to do is appear at any sect's gates, and let them examine you. You would be free of me, my father and any danger that plagued you before.

Zhun Xuying eyes opened wide, she was hearing the words but could not treat them as reality, she thought it was a plot. if it's true why someone like young Miss was telling her this.?

Seeing the confusion on her face Zhi Rui explained

"If I don't tell it you'll remain here helping me, but in the long run, you'll become useless. and to be honest I can find a substitute for you right away. You can no longer acquire information on my father, and you are not strong enough to help me significantly. So I decided to bet."

Zhi Rui stared at her intensely, she spoke loud and clear

"Go to the sect tomorrow you'll study it the cultivation and the sect itself.

If possible form your own network.Three months from now,

I'll be going there. At that time I'll need someone who knows where to go and what to do when I give an order."

Zhi Rui slowly neared Zhun Xuying who was still frozen in time.

"It doesn't matter if you did nothing against me, or if you give me some advantages and call it even If you refuse to follow me I"ll destroy you."

Zhun Xuying saw the green abyss on Zhi Rui eye's turn red, her own breathing became ragged.

Zhi Rui whispered in her ears "From the moment I undid the ropes tying you to that stake, you belonged to me!"

Zhun Xuying started trembling with red-rimmed eyes she gently embraced Zhi Rui. Leaning her head on Zhi Rui's shoulder

Zhi Rui could feel the rapid breathing on her skin, something inside her turned on.

She looked at the woman on her arms. 'After all why not?'she thought to herself

Zhi Rui pulled Zhun Xuying's hair backward, strongly but not enough to hurt. She looked at the woman's intoxicated eyes,

"You're thirty, have you no shame, seeking warm on twenty years old woman?"

Zhi Rui suddenly joined lips with her in a long deep, breathless wet kiss.

"If the time comes and you choose anything other than lord over this country with me, you'll die."

Zhi Rui could feel the other woman's trembling body.

The lust took place of her senses.

---------------------

Afternoon, Zhun Xuying felt the warm sun on her face,

with sluggish movements she opened her eyes and looked around.

'This is Young miss's room!' suddenly the memories of yesterday assaulted her mind.

She put both hands on her head.

'What was I thinking?' she saw a pieace of paper at her side. seeing it she widened her eyes "It was tasty!? thank you?! This brat!"

Zhun Xuying was flustered, weirdly enough she felt good, too good in fact,

she looked inside herself.

Her core was deep red, almost black. she could feel it, she was multiple times stronger than before. thinking back at the slaves, She understood.

it was a gift from her or a guarantee that she won't betray her when the time is right. She looked around the room and felt the need to clean everything, but she remembered that Zhi Rui liked it like this.

She looked at small baggage by the side of the door, she walked to it, in the nude, she did not care. There was another piece of paper on it.

'The light sect will abolish any kind of luxury for new people. But as you enter there you can get it back, after some time .

There's a carriage at the door they'll bring you there.

PS : You can either rule under me, or you can die."

Zhun Xuying felt weird, she could not trust Zhi Rui, no matter what they had last night. But still, she also could not doubt the words in the letter.

She looked at the sleeping robes from Zhi Rui thrown on the floor, she Remembered Zhi Rui tearing it apart instead of just undressing.

She walked toward it, she could smell Zhi Rui in it, nothing beautiful or poetic, like in the books only her sweat and the perfume lingered in

She brought it to her nose and deeply inhaled and as if opium her mind went reeling, with a blush on her face she put it inside the bag and went out.

To the light sect.
