Chapter 276: Tianlong Hu Die (2/2)

Just as she entered the alley, a big hand suddenly appeared out of the shadows and grabbed her by the back of her neck.

She could feel and hear her neck bones cracking for a moment there. It was really painful and scary, this was the first time she had been in this position.

Not to mention that she was supposed to be all alone following this guy. Someone who was so much powerful than her.

Right at this moment, she heard his voice, it was a cold and screechy voice,

The Manager:" Well, well, well what do we have here? Why are you following me, little mouse?"

The guy was a bit surprised by this encounter, because he was having her head in his hands, but couldn't quite sense her there. It was really strange.

Furthermore, he was using more power than that of a normal person on her, and yet she was having no clear sign of pain.

This meant only one thing, this little girl must be special, she must have some special power. He couldn't relate to her being a cultivator right now.

But then again, why would such a little girl follow him in this place. He had been able to notice her only after entering through half of the red district.

She had followed him until here and was even going to follow him inside the alley. It was her appearance that made him suspicious of her.

This little girl was wearing nice clothes, so that took away the idea of her being just a street kid. Was she part of some organization following him?

Tianlong Hu Die, on the other hand, was doing her best to keep herself from screaming or even showing a particle of pain in her face, and just said calmly,

Tianlong Hu Die:" You seemed interesting walking in here, and I just got curious."

The manager didn't seem to be convinced by her words though, so with a bad grin he said,

The Manager:" Don't you know that curiosity killed the cat?"

He didn't know who she was, but he couldn't take chances. He either had to kill this little girl, or kidnap her and sent her to his boss.

The second option was much more profitable for him, but also more dangerous if this kid had companions.

There was also a third and more tempting option though, what if he just kept her to himself. He really liked little girls, playing with them in different ways, and breaking them.

This was even the reason he was in this place. This alley was actually a door to a young girl's house, but only members of that place knew about this.

He had been a member here for a long time, and it was his deepest secret. Not even EITS had any information about this hobby of his.

He was really tempted by this third option. Even though it was really risky, this girl seemed to be worth it, she seemed so good and juicy.

Tianlong Hu Die was clearly unaware of the options of her future, she was just fighting hard against the feelings of fear and powerlessness, and thinking of a way to escape.

While the manager was contemplating these thoughts though, a shadow appeared from behind him and pinched him with a pin on his neck, while a handkerchief was on his nose.

In no time, the manager released his grip on Tianlong Hu Die who fell on the ground and then lost consciousness, but his body was still kept standing by the shadow behind him.

Tianlong Hu Die, on the other hand, was on the ground coughing and trying to recollect herself.

She didn't know what happened, so she raised her head to look towards the newcomer.

It was just that she was stunned by what she saw, because right there in front of her was her Big Sister Xia, looking towards her with a reproachful look.

She didn't know if she should feel happy for having been saved, or terrified at what was coming up next. This was her first time seeing her Big Sister Xia mad at her.

Tianlong Xia was looking at her with the reproachful gaze of a big sister, while this looked really cold on the outside, inside she felt the warmth of that look.

Without losing any time Tianlong Xia let the guy there on the middle of the alley, and grabbed Tianlong Hu Die away just like a small wrapped gift under her right arm.

They were on top of one of the red district buildings by the time Tianlong Hu Die opened her eyes to have a look at that mad face for a second time.

For a few moments, there was only that look directed towards her, and total silence. It was a murderous silence though, Tianlong Hu Die couldn't handle that silence.

It was eating at her mind and soul. Just by the presence of Tianlong Xia in this place, saving her, she knew that all her thoughts until now were wrong.

She didn't need to work more than she could handle, she didn't need to rush things and show she was the best to be part of the clan.

She was already an important part of the clan, and while she had to work hard to help her clan, the fact that she was one of them was never in doubt.

Tianlong Hu Die was a really intelligent girl, she didn't need words to make her understand things. Sometimes one look is all it takes to understand everything.

This was totally Tianlong Hu Die's case, that one look on Tianlong Xia's face made her feel for the first time the kind of love and care she had never felt before.

Perhaps even her love for Tianlong Yun might have been due to her fear of abandonment, and trying to tie him up with something more, but right now she had one of those moments.

One of those rare enlightening moments, and everything seemed to fall on its place.

With this conclusion reached, Tianlong Hu Die jumped in Tianlong Xia's arms and started crying like a little kid, for the first time since she had joined the Shadow Clan.

In the meantime Tianlong Xia was a bit startled at first when this little girl jumped in her bosom, but hearing her cry and feeling her hot tears, she just started patting her little head.

Feeling the pats of her Big Sister Xia in her head, Tianlong Hu Die just started crying more. She was like a licking pump, more and more hot water was coming out of her eyes.

In between her cries, Tianlong Xia could hear words like, ' I'm sorry, I was scared, I want to always be part of the family'. It was truly a mess of emotions.

She cried there in Tianlong Xia's arms for more than 15 minutes. But finally after all that she was able to recollect herself and stop her crying.

Even then she didn't immediately release her hug on her Big Sister Xia, she wanted to feel the warmth of her body, the warmth of someone beside her.

Tianlong Xia didn't say a thing all this time, only now seeing her like this she said,

Tianlong Xia:" You finally behaved like a kid for the first time. I was getting worried for you, and the Patriarch too."

Hearing those words, Tianlong Hu Die finally sobered up fully and said,

Tianlong Hu Die:" Please don't tell him about this, he will think I am a little kid, and my love is not true."

Saying that she had those pleading eyes that only girls could have, it was a truly critical emotional hit on everyone with a heart.

Seeing her face, and hearing those words, Tianlong Xia started laughing and said,

Tianlong Xia:" Don't worry, just grow up, and I am sure you will win hubby's heart!"

If some normal person heard that, he would be really stupefied by those words, but Tianlong Hu Die had a dazzling smile on her beautiful face.

She felt really good, relieved and happy right now. Then as if remembering something she said,

Tianlong Hu Die:" Oh right, Big Sister Xia what about your work at the headquarters. Since when have you been following me?"

Tianlong Xia was reminded of the reason she was mad at her in the first place, and pinching her checks with her fingers, she pulled it out and said,

Tianlong Xia:" From the beginning, how could I let a brat like you go alone! Now I hope you have learned your lesson, otherwise punishment is on your way, little brat!"

At the moment Tianlong Hu Die was still in her child mode, and not to mention the fact that she couldn't confront her Big Sister Xia after she had saved her life, so she just prayed for forgiveness.

Tianlong Hu Die:" Ouch, ouch, ouch! Big Sister Xia please forgive me, it will never happen again. I will never do something stupid like that, ever again.

Please let me go!"

Hearing her pleads Tianlong Xia released her soft checks, and giving her a hug she said,

Tianlong Xia:" You are a really important part of our Clan, and family. Please don't do anything stupid! You don't have to try so hard to be the best, because you already are!"

Tianlong Hu Die was caught unprepared by this sudden attack of tender love and care, and just hugged Tianlong Xia back, and could just make an 'mhm' sound.

It was a really touching moment. Sisterly love at its best, but suddenly Tianlong Hu Die jumped out of her embrace and said,

Tianlong Hu Die:" Oh, but don't think of this as my lose, I will win our little competition, and then ask for a nice hot kiss!"

Her last words went with the flow, and it was like a little self implosion, because she revealed her reason for wanting to win this competition with her big sister.

Hearing that Tianlong Xia was stunned for a moment, and then started laughing the next. She had never expected Tianlong Hu Die to want to win for such a motive.

It was truly ironic, one of the biggest information networks on Earth was about to be created, just so that its founder could ask for a hot kiss.

Processing her self implosion, Tianlong Hu Die started screaming at her Big Sister Xia,

Tianlong Hu Die:" Oh, forget that, you didn't hear me say that, please!"

Seeing her cute reaction Tianlong Xia just wanted to laugh more, and tease her more, but then her senses caught on something, and she said…
