Chapter 172 - 172

Luo Ye kingdom.

Theresa's house.

Ju Wei appeared with Princess Wang Jiao at the extreme of the room and both saw the two geezers(old Long and doctor Fu Jin) seriously engaged in a drinking competition. The table made of acacia wood was wet with the liquor together with their robes. There were even some that spiled on the floor. Ju Wei shook his head and turned to face a stunned princess Wang Jiao.

"Immortal Pei, why are we...here?" she asked.

"To help someone"replied Ju Wei.

"Who are we gonna help, immortal Pei?"Wang Jiao asked again. Honestly in her imagination, she was thinking they'd go to the skies or someplace filled with rich qi. This place indeed had good qi but where were the clouds and fairytale stuff?

Pointing at the two geezers who were drinking from two big jars of wine that never seemed to get empty anytime soon,(presumably it's a storage wine jar.) Wang Jiao asked again"Are we here to help them?"

Ju Wei shook his head and pointed at the bed on which lay Theresa. She wasn't in a critical condition no more since the scales and fox fur are no longer present on her body but she still had the black and pink veins that were still fighting albeit in a slower manner.

"Her?"Wang Jiao asked in shock and Ju Wei nodded.

"She..."

"I know you're angry but on account of the fact that your hair is back, please help her," said Ju Wei.

"You...that means you must be a demonic cultivator" Wang Jiao mumbled.

"No! You're wrong. You see, my master was trying to resurrect my mistress mother and she won't let anyone or thing hinder the process.I'm sorry for all you had to go through. Look at her. She lost 5 stages of cultivation for her mum. What is more filial than that?" explained Ju Wei.

"Ok. She lost some cultivation. But why is she like this? From what I know, those things on her face can't be the backlash of cultivation loss right?"Wang Jiao skeptically asked.

"It is indeed not. You have to enable her to pass through this and I'll greatly reward you" said Ju Wei.

"Fine! I'll help"Wang Jiao walked to the bed and sat on a chair.

"Lady, even with the veins on your face, your beauty is still blinding. Forget it. On account of Lord Pei, I'll help you out."Wang Jiao said before placing her two hands on Theresa's left hand.

"All living things bear me witness, with vested power of my element, let me help someone lighten up their dreams" chanted Wang Jiao.

Immediately her hands radiated pink light which entered into Thersa's eft hand speedily for 3 minutes. Only then did Wang Jiao get up.

"I'm done," she said. "Where's the reward you promised me?"

"You did it just for the reward?"Ju Wei asked.

"Lord Pei, three minutes is the farthest I can go for a bad lady like her. I think she deserves it. Heavens are punishing her for her sins. And lord Pei I want my reward doubled. I'll leave by myself. I don't need you to send me off" said Wang Jiao.

"Fine!"Ju Wei took out a wooden hairpin from his storage ring and put it on her hair.

"This is your reward," said Ju Wei with a smile.

"You must be kidding me right? I'm princess, Wang Jiao of Cherry kingdom, if there's one thing I lack not, that's hairpins. Why give me that cheap hairpin?"Wang Jaio sked unhappily.

"You don't like it? But that's what I prepared"

"Give me something else" Wang Jiao threw the hairpin on the floor an Ju Wei picked it up and caressed it.

"What a pity, this hairpin was supposed to absorb 93 percent of the enemy's attack. Since you don't like it, let me..."Before Ju Wei could keep it back in his storage ring, Wang Jiao took it from him.

"Err...i think this hairpin is good. Thanks, lord Pei for the reward. When you need my help again please call me" With that, she put the hairpin on her air and teleported out of the house.

This was possible because the seal was weakened a bit or else she wouldn't be able to leave.

Ju Wei finally let out an evil smirk.

"Girl, next time don't play with fire. That hairpin was given with sincerity. Now I've given it to you with revenge in mind. Stupid"Ju Wei thought before walking towards Theresa to sit beside her.

"Great mistress, please be well soon and reconcile with my ex-master. I'm willing to accept the new guy. Please don't be worried" he said in a whisper before resting his head on the bed and falling asleep.

All this time, the two geezers ( old Long and Fu Jin) still engaged heavily in their drinking contest. None wanted to back down.
