17 A Fake Slave And Betrayal!

Anna suddenly jolted up straight, as if she did something she shouldn't have, it had been a long night, so I assumed she was just exhausted, and paid no mind to it. It was currently extremely late, and I had to cultivate, in order to protect her, and then teach her myself. She looked incredibly soft and delicate, sitting there as I set up a bed for her, although it wasn't really considered a bed due to it being made from a few blankets and sheets, it was still far comfier than the floor.

I sat down and began cultivating, and she immediately laid in bed, she looked exhausted, although she didn't sleep for almost three hours until finally she fell asleep. I began deep meditation and lost sense of all my surroundings, all I felt was the flow of qi surrounding me, and the hard floor beneath me. The flowing qi coming through, in and out of my dantian, until finally finding its place. Hours passed, all merely spent on improving my base which will soon allow me to rapidly breakthrough after I hit the martial warrior realm.

The smell in the air suddenly came back to me, as it was finally morning. And there was several more days until I left he outer disciples area, where I made my first memories of even entering a sect! I needed to cultivate even more, and I sent out Anna to go buy as many qi collecting pills as she can with my remaining five million spirit stones. She left in a hurry, and I immediately sat back down. My base for the qi collection was far too built for my second layer to handle. Even if my body was as strong as a qi cultivation realm, my qi was only just at the beginning, and expanding my base too far could result in negative effects.

I hastily changed my focus to upgrading my cultivation, I needed to reach at least the fifth stage of qi collection, the peak, in order to continue expanding my base at the rate I already am. Additionally, these pills are going to help me get an even stronger base! The unknowns of expanding your base was truely a mystery, additionally, was there a secret realm to every layer? I was only told about the body building secret realm, but I don't know about anything else, how strong could these secret realms possibly be?

Many more hours passed, the expanded base aiding in cultivation far more than expected, I easily reached the fifth layer without a hitch. Finally, Anna came back from the market, at almost the most perfect timing she could ever have.

"I've... I've got the pills!" Anna breathed heavily.

"Thanks a lot! You can take a break, and just enjoy your time!" I smiled, it was so great seeing Anna being productive, and I couldn't help but let out a slight blush.

I took the pills from the ring I gave her and immediately consumed ten of the many hundreds remaining. The effects were better than I expected, The qi stored inside them was almost twice as much as the qi i absorbed in an hour, which is far more than the average intake. These pills seemed to be high quality pills, and I expected no less then from an elf's super sharp and keen senses.

I cultivated for another few hours, and eventually consumed all the pills except a few, that could be kept for when Anna reaches the qi collection stage. My base was expanded to the absolute max, it seemed as if it was impossible for me to even attempt to go further, so it was finally time for me to sleep. Cultivators don't need sleep they can gain the energy they need through cultivation, but the feeling of sleeping is far nicer than sitting there and cultivating, whilst also giving you time to refresh your qi naturally.

I went into my bedroom, I was almost surprised at the fact that i'd never even used my bedroom before, the bed was untouched and seemed as if it had collected a little bit of dust. I swept all the dust off and then finally laid down, the comfort the bed gave me was so warm, after not sleeping for over a hundred years, you cant help but tear up a little in the moment. It was a little uncomfortable in the bed since it was only for the outer disciples, although that might be all those years talking instead.

I passed out within only thirty minutes, and felt amazing, however that feeling wasn't staying for long.

Sphhhlt!

"AAAARGHH!!!" I let out a cry of pain, and looked down, only to see I had been stabbed. "A.....nna?"

Anna started mumbling, my head was spinning and I felt that I lost too much blood.

"How could you... betray me?" I asked her

She started laughing maniacally, "You think that my crest was real? and here i thought it was obvious that it was fake! hahahahaha!"

"I.... I only treated you right! why do this, why now!" I yelled truly emptying out my heart.

"You said you absorbed your spirit, if I could just get my hands on it then...." Anna paused, "Then i'd become one of the richest women alive!"

I looked at her with a strong sense of guilt, if only I listened to the stone! It warned me about her, yet I let my foolish puppy love get in the way! I jumped up, almost screaming from the pain, it seems she bought a poisoned dagger with the extra money, which is why there were only several hundred pills there. I ran behind her, thankfully due to the secret realm, she couldn't even notice me before I struck.

"AAARGRAGAAAARGHHG!!!" She let out a scream, as I pierced her heart with a sword from my ring.

"Is it... over?" I asked myself, walking over to her laying corpse.

All of a sudden, the poison finally acted up "blarrhggh!"

I coughed up blood all over the floor, my vision slowly blurred until finally, I collapsed.
