Chapter 59 - The agreement 2

She'll work hard.

Before disappearing, Dorothy told her she'd be able to summon things from her former world which is earth.

If that's possible does it mean that one day she might be able to summon her parents here?

Dorothy said anything but Kim Tae Hyung!

She just has to work hard to cultivate.

She'd suffer any pain for it.

See? Ren has some use now. I need him to teach me how to cultivate. Then I'll be able to summon my parents here just like Han Fei did."Theresa thought a smile finally appearing on her lips.

All she has to do is work hard!

She finally decided to have some sleep.

"Just let that silly pet continue his 'prayer'."

After 20 seconds she fell asleep.

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

Theresa woke up in a familiar surrounding.

She recalled it very clearly.

This was the cold palace that she had escaped from.

Why then was she back here.

That evil pet deserves ten thousand beatings by the rod.

He dared bring her here just because she refused to break the contract.

Theresa swore silently that if she sees him, he'll be dead meat.

She got up from the shay bed and wanted to step forward when light appeared in front of her.

She was startled that she sat back on the shaky bed.

What is this light that's here before her?

She was scared especially since Ren was not here.

Where did he run off to when she needed him at this critical moment.

She feared that her life might be at stake here.

The temperature in the room then began to drop rapidly.

Theresa was almost frozen if not for the necklace on her neck which was gleaming fighting against the intense cold.

So Ren left her this and escaped?

No worries so long as she survives, she can always summon him back.

Theresa looked at the light before her that was changing it's blue color slowly to red.

Theresa also noticed that the temperature of the room was rising slowly so she thought the necklace was responsible for it.

She began to thank her stars silently.

She looked towards her left at the corner of the room lay a scroll and a book.

Both were levitating in mid-air and glowing slightly.

'What is this?"Theresa asked internally.

She did not wait long for an answer because a voice belonging to someone she does not see replied to her internal question.

'Theresa Williams, I know you are angry that I summoned you here but you have to finish the mission I assigned you. I can't fully close my eyes to rest if you continue this way. You were in the palace. Aren't you supposed to deal with Han Fei? Instead, you started from Han Ling after running out of the cold palace. You must fulfill this mission for it represents your life. You wouldn't have been summoned if you had no spiritual roots. You have supreme grade roots and can cultivate once you open your meridians and cleanse your body of the impurities. You must fulfill this mission or you will die. The scroll and book shall be your beginner's guide. Your pet Long Ren is a Demon Lord feared by every saint level cultivator. You must treat him well and break the contract at the right time. Remember, fulfill the mission and be free." said the unknown owner of the voice.

Theresa felt the temperature rise higher than before and it continued to rise with no stopping.

The light had disappeared and the temperature kept on rising.

Theresa felt so hot and uncomfortable.

"This isn't a cold palace anymore. It's a furnace," she muttered and got down to her feet dashing towards the door.

But it was at that moment that she felt a severe headache and her knees went weak all of a sudden resulting in her crashing to the ground which was as hot as boiling water.

Her cheeks were flushed red and her tears were running down her face.

She held her head in frustration as the room's temperature kept increasing so that even the bed caught fire along with the scroll and book which were still levitating in mid-air.

Theresa was close to fainting as her vision went blurry.

"Since I can't make it. Let me just die here. I'll die. Let me die" she shouted hitting down on the hot floor.

Behind her, a 3-headed dragon snake appeared with his mouth open baring his fangs at Theresa's back.
