"That was some nasty game you learned from your friend!" Jun'er scowled. Even Tang Yuehua didn't look any better. Meanwhile, with hair finally sprouting on his face and head, Ja Sun smiled gave more wood to the fire.

She meant the Value of Life.

Oscar looked a bit ponderous and Tang Yuehua didn't dare look at anyone this moment. The other five from the group could relate to the trio's emotions currently.

They had been on travel for four days now. Each day would be productive. Each day, everyone learned something new, even Ja Sun did. And although Xie Xan was still studying the Asura Sight Technique to make sure he doesn't accidentally take a wrong step, his eyes were opened to a whole new world of strength. With Ja Sun giving Xie Xan free reign to the technique, Xie Xan had much more help from the others.

As expected, Bibi Dong and others refused to practice this technique. Even Liu Erlong was the same while Oscar couldn't practice it. Once again, this was all because of the technique's requirements and methods. But with continuous discussion with Bibi Dong and Hu Lana, who only encouraged his drive to get strong instead of letting their own inhibitions be the blocking factor for someone else, Xie Xan was almost prepared to start it.

The group had yet to set up a camp. And from the looks of it, this was just one of the days where they wouldn't set up a tent and would find their own spots to rest close to one another.

"I would like to go first then," Tang Yuehua mumbled.

Ja Sun and everyone looked at the woman. Despite her origin and courtly manners, and etiquette training, Yuehua had proved herself to be quite a surprise. She didn't act out of place for little things or discomfort brought by such a way of living, and she even helped teach some etiquettes to others in the group in the passing. Finally... she played harp seldom and it was enjoyed by the girls a lot, which included Xie Xan.

"Personally, I have never attacked anyone much less taking other's life. It is not hard to admit that my father raised me quite protectively but I don't dislike it. Outside the clan, my brothers took care of me well, too. Even with my more restricted nurturing, I have never harbored curiosity for such actions.

But now, seeing you all. Seeing my brothers and thinking back on how my father actually is... I wonder if the path of a Spirit Master is tied to killing someone else. From the very beginning, a spirit master has to take a life for the advancement of the path and I cannot help but wonder if there is another way.

I understand that this game is to speak up your mind to better understand those around us and not truly about who we killed. It's about the 'why?'. So... here it is. Why can I not stop wondering if the path of Spirit Masters can have more than one route or not... If there is an individual who doesn't like to kill aside from the necessities of life, like eating, will he or she remain spiritually weak forever?"

Everyone grew silent. This was truly a fantasy for someone.

"But long story short, I have never killed anybody or anything personally. But I do eat... like everyone else, technically."

Jun'er and Oscar looked at each other before shrugging. It's not like their killing history was long or personal. They were the same as many other Spirit Masters out there.

"We haven't killed personally either. But I guess it's just the way of the world that we don't find it hard to take a spirit beast's life."

Everyone nodded while Ah Yin's lips twitched momentarily.

"Can I ask something?" Jun'er inquired while hugging Oscar, "Brother Xie and Sister Hu are obviously a couple like me and Oscar. But what about the rest? Brother Ka-ul, until now, don't you have anyone you like? Hmm, Erlong, Yin, and Teacher, what about you?"

Now Jun'er was asking some important questions. Tang Yuehua's gaze lit in curiosity while Ja Sun looked around, finding many gazes settling on him.

'This isn't some random school camp you hell bitch,' Ja Sun rolled his eyes before he sighed and nodded.

"I do hold affection. And for an entity, I don't think I can ever meet again."

Seeing Ja Sun being so forthright about it, only the newbies felt curious. The veterans, however, knew better.

"Who?" Jun'er inquired in excitement. Struggles are the bread and butter of romance and seeing even Ja Sun, the being she felt simply overpowering even with a single arm lost, she couldn't help but wonder what sort of existence could make him feel so somber.

"I remember the touch... and I loved it," Ja Sun shook his head as his shoulders slumped.

"I loved... my left arm!" Ja Sun suddenly laughed and the others followed except for Jun'er, Oscar, and Tang Yuehua grew daze before gazing at their laughing teammates. Everyone felt different. Oscar and Jun'er recalled their previous team and how they would use to have such a good time. At least, things didn't seem too different here. On the other hand, Yuehua felt refreshed and a little excited.

Everyone walked on their toes around her brothers and those who were calm were either too strong or too old. But here, although she did not appreciate Ja Sun's vulgarity, in the end, she began to found it endearing because more often than not... everyone laughed.

It was enjoyable, not hurtful.

Though recalling Dai Taiyin's situation, she couldn't help but sigh involuntarily. That was diabolical.

"Now that we're asking questions," Ja Sun smiled, "I have to ask," Ja Sun looked at Oscar and Jun'er.

"Ah Yin told me that you had an encounter with the one Titled Evil Grandson. Ja Sun, is it? What did you think of him? Is he strong?"

Everyone looked at Jun'er and Oscar. Controlling the urge to roll her eyes, Ah Yin glanced at Ja Sun with a sigh.

"Ja Sun... I don't like to think about him. But... he isn't a spirit master and he still defeated all of us. A team of five with the strength rivaling a Spirit Emperor."

"Really?" Liu Erlong inquired, "By the way, who is this Evil Grandson?"

"The one with the bounty of a 10000-year-old spirit bone on his head from the day he awakened his martial soul," Bibi Dong gazed at the flickering flames, "And also the one who left a lasting mark on my master."

Ah Yin and Ja Sun both looked at each other.

'See?' Ja Sun's gaze seemed rather smug about it while Ah Yin shook her head.

"What mark?" Jun'er inquired while Oscar elbowed her and shook his head.

A warm and weary couch that would creak every time you lie on it. An old but comfortable woodwork with lots and lots of defects but something you simply accept. A bed so comfortable that nothing could ever match its love...

Ja Sun sighed and sat down silently. Letting his palm reach for the creek and enjoy the cold water flowing around them.

"They used to call me their highness. An Empress... but now, they call me their Goddess. I have never felt so loved and so longed for in my entire life... thank you, Ja Sun."

"It's... Jason..." he pursed his lips and whispered before shaking his head, "No, Ja Sun is much better..."

He turned around to see Ah Yin sitting cross-legged and already facing him.

"We both owe each other favors that we cannot repay. You owe me your life... and I owe you my martial soul."

"Which is the same, isn't it?" Ja Sun chuckled.

"No, it isn't. Your debt can be easily be taken from me. By anyone smart, strong, and unscrupulous enough. But my debt to you... cannot. The third ability of my domain is that even if die. As long as my corpse is intact, I will revive in 49 days or so it would have been before my evolution. Now, it is merely 7 days."

"Are you worried that I might plot to kill you?" Ja Sun inquired curiously.

"Don't make me laugh," Ah Yin's smile receded, "Because it was hardly funny."

"What do you want me to say? I cannot revive no matter how hard I try. If I die, I'm gone completely."

"I know..." Ah Yin smiled with a slightly pained look that made Ja Sun look away momentarily.

"By the way, I call my third ability Rooted Immortality."

"Oh, that's a good name."

Silence once again ensued after this moment. It persisted for a few minutes. Ja Sun and Ah Yin continued to look at each other until Ah Yin groaned softly, "Just spit it out. You already know something, don't you?"

His eyelids jumped in surprise, "Am I that easy to read?"

"Others can't, but I've seen enough of you to know what's going inside your head," Ah Yin scoffed.

"Well... it started from when we met Violet. And then your insistence of reaching rank 60... and how much importance you place in this rank when ordinarily, rank 70 is the true focus of a spirit master because of our True Spirit Avatar.

You're... retarded, aren't you?"

Ja Sun sighed. He couldn't do it in the end. It wasn't his news to expose.

Ah Yin's expression turned a little cold.

"Stop it. I want to hear you say it. Or you would even deny the truth and facts? Is it that repulsive?"

Ja Sun blinked before shaking his head.

"You misunderstand. And do you really think I would find it repulsive? Come on, the only thing I find repulsive are fruits that should be hard but sometimes end soft and weird. Like a soft apple... or a rotten banana. Well, I don't mean soft like you. I"

"Alright, alright, I get it..." Ah Yin crawled forward before sitting right in front of Ja Sun.

"This is my birthplace. As a Blue Silver Grass... as a Blue Silver Queen, and as a Blue Silver Empress. And as Ah Yin."

She held Ja Sun's palm with both of her hands and then looked down. Her heart feeling a strange force making her feel a sense of discomfort. It wasn't embarrassment. But a sense of fluster and anxiousness.

"I see..." Ja Sun leaned forward. His head equally lowered and touched Ah Yin's forehead with his. "I want you to know. I really wasn't comparing you to a soft apple or a rotten banana. You look the best the way you are."

"You've lost your touch in complimenting others."

"Who said I was good at it... I'm good at other forms of verbal wars," Ja Sun chuckled.

"I still haven't gotten my sixth spirit ring..."

"Yes. I see. Hmm, I, Ja Sun, am going to kiss you. If you do not consent, then any action other than a slap will be considered as a matter of a formality and not actually resistance."

He whispered. Consent is always hot.

His lips leaned downward and Ah Yin slowly raised her head up. Her hands holding Ja Sun's palm tightly as their lips brushed past against each other. With eyes closed, under the large Blue Silver King, their bodies basked in the glow of the sun and their hearts so anxious, they simply melted against each other the moment they gently pecked each other's lips.

Tender, both of them realized.

Caring and kind, they further realized, at least, towards each other. But that's the only thing it mattered, right?

Ah Yin finally let go of Ja Sun's hand and raised her palms. She felt anxious and wanted to stop it at once. This was too much of an excitement for her yet she only held Ja Sun's cheeks from a little closer to his jawline.

Ja Sun simultaneously stroked her cheek with his hand, finally feeling the true loss of his left arm. He could have touched something else simultaneously!

"This doesn't mean anything... until you grow back your eyebrows," Ah Yin pulled back for a moment.

"Jokes on you, I'm into kissing women without bearing any responsibility," Ja Sun snickered before reaching out once again.
