25 Pillar of the Country 4

Days have passed since their last meeting.

Xi Sheng integrated herself in the temple quite well.

There are nearly a hundred people living in the temple. Half of them are the people she interacted within the daylight and half of it in the night time.

All of the residents in the temple are named Xi. Though, Xi Sheng isn't entirely sure whether it was the old man who named all of them or his ancestors. However, there's one thing that she is confident about, that old man as the royal advisor is no joke. His life force is way too huge!

From days living in the temple, she also gathered some information. The people living in the day are called Sol Keepers, while people in the twilight are called Night Runners.

Xi Lan, for example, belongs to the Sol Keepers. His main duty is to protect the temple or do some errands.

Night Runners, as the name suggests, it is for shady purposes. She's not sure what they do, but it's definitely not good.

Xi Sheng blurted out:"Open windows."

A transparent window appeared before her.

『Fragment's Profile 50% Complete

Backstory:???』

Xi Sheng stumbled upon this piece of information. The details weren't hers, but from the body she possesses currently.

She only has some vague understanding of the temperament, skills, and quirk.

"Awooo..."

The tiny cub in her arms scratches the transparent window.

Although shock that the cub could see it, it gave an even more surprise to Xi Sheng because the cub could actually touch it!

Xi Sheng had a suspicion. While the cub continues to scratch the window, Xi Sheng gulps and pats the wolf's head. Her eyes glistening with hope.

"System Eight?"

However, the cub didn't react.

Sensing some abnormality coming from its owner, the black wolf cub tilted its head:

"Awoo?"

Xi Sheng's expectation was quickly extinguished.

Nevertheless, Xi Sheng kisses its forehead while thinking:'How disappointing...'

The cub licks Xi Sheng in return.

...

"Junior Sister Sheng! Junior Sister Sheng!"

Inhale... Exhale...

Xi Sheng changed her position from sleeping swan pose to pigeon pose.

Inhale... Exhale...

Focus on the tranquillity of nature...

Calm the-----

Bam! Bam! Bam!

"Junior Sister Sheng! Junior Sister Sheng!"

---mind.

Inha---

"Junior Sister Sheng, are you asleep?!"

Exha---

"Junior Sister Sheng, why aren't you speaking?! Did something happen there?!"

Xi Sheng quickly inhales and exhale.

Calm down self. We must maintain equilibrium about ourselves. We must practice---

"Junior Sister Sheng, I'm barging in!!"

Boom!

The door was only made from oak so when Xi Lan thrashes the door, it burst into pieces.

---peace.

She clearly put a note not to disturb her, so why...!

The remains from the destroyed door created a smokescreen, and some of it went to her eyes.

Since the word 'berserk' is attached to her character, she thought she should practice her temper by the use of mediation in the form of yoga.

"Junior Sister Sheng, are you all right?! Why is your body twisted like that?!"

While Xi Lan is busy being concerned to her, Xi Sheng is also occupied in her murderous mentality.

Seeing the person who disturbed her serenity, Xi Sheng now understands why her temperament is a calm berserker.

Why? Because right now, she's thinking how to rampage, how to efficiently apply her insanity clearly without any remorse.

Her last thought before her body moves was:' This is dangerous. There's something wrong with this body!'

...

The ruckus coming from the extended courtyard caught a lot of attention. Part of it is because of its dweller. When Xi Sheng was first brought by Elder Xi, it already caused an uproar. Being held by the elder so gentle and dearly was one thing, the other reason was because of the grave injury she had acquired. Such a small and frail child, it evoked all kinds of sympathy.

And that frail child suddenly leaps off the courtyard.

Bam!

Suddenly, a body flew to a near hut made of sturdy materials.

"Ack!"

Xi Lan was caught off guard so he sustained more damage. However, he didn't care about his injuries. His eyes are concentrated on a slender and nimble body that caused him to fly.

"Junior Sister Sheng, what's wrong?!"

Xi Lan saw the expression in her face. He was alarmed upon discovering it.

He tried to communicate with her, but the response was a swift and full of killing intent directed towards his vital parts!

Xi Lan dodged Xi Sheng's attack and jump far away from her. When he thought he's already on a safe zone, a figure flashed in front of him. A kick landed on his stomach causing him to be pushed back, but it didn't stop from there!

An unrefined set of moves was displayed directed to his veins. In which he only dodged each of it.

"Junior Sister---!!!"

Swisshhh!!!

Just a moment of carelessness could put him at death's door. Xi Sheng successfully landed a hit to his shoulder and neck. It wasn't really life-threatening if it didn't hit the sensitive part, however, it will be very very dangerous if it strikes the veins. If it does... that's really bad news.

"Awoooo..."

Seeing Xi Sheng closing the gaps between them, Xi Lan ran out of ideas to wake her up. He only hopes that his next move will work.

His hand caught and swoop up a plump black-furred animal. He hid his face behind the animal and prayed into his heart that it should work. It needs to work!

The slender hands swinging down suddenly halted.

"Don't move!"

"Any movement and we won't hesitate to stab you!"

"Awooo!!!"

Xi Lan slowly opens his eyes.

Xi Sheng's hand was stopped midway, just before the cub's face.

Not only that, metal spears and swords are also pointed to her. Some of its tips already wounded her neck, a crimson liquid slowly dripping.

Xi Lan slowly unravels Xi Sheng's expression. Upon confirming Xi Sheng's state of mind, Xi Lan breathes a sigh of relief.

Junior Sister Sheng is back!
