Chapter 104 Xiao Ring

Xiao Ring sat in the grass atop the mountain, plucking juicy berries off of a bush and popping them into her mouth. A contented smile spread over her face, "Tasty," Then she looked around and frowned, "Sister should have find me? What happened?"

Xiao Ring finished the last of the berries, then stood and wiped her hands on her dress. She squinted in the bright sunlight, looking for any sign of her sister. After an hour of searching with no luck, she reluctantly turned away from the mountain and started her descent.

"Why isn't she came to find me?" Xiao Ring said to herself walking a down the mountain. After a while, a smell rushed into her nose, she sniffed and frowned then her eyes wide open, "Blood."

Xiao Ring's chest heaved as she sprinted towards her home, Ignoring the rivers of blood flowing from neighboring houses, she kept running, pushing herself beyond her limits. With a final gasp for air, she reached her house.

As she approached the door, it swung open slightly, revealing a scene that made her heart drop. Her sister lay still on the floor, surrounded by a deep red lake that pooled around her shoulders and spilled onto ground beneath. The world around her drained away as she took in the sight, her mind ceasing to function as she processed what had happened.

"Sister," Xiao Ring called her but no answer, She stood there not moving for long time, then she heard something bouncing coming at her, then a voice of something dragging.

She turned her head and saw a red jelly-like creature bouncing here and behind him was a naked woman getting dragged.

Xiao Ring saw the naked woman and the word come out of her mouth, "Mother "

A red jelly-like creature looked at this innocent girl that was in state of shock and he couldn't believe that this girl had a tremendous talent for cultivation. This creature was watching the girl for some days and today he got the perfect opportunity to form a pact with the girl. Then with this girl, he would unify the continent fastest and would rule this world.

Xiao Ring was frozen for a some moment, then she took a deep breath and closed her eyes as she chuckled and tears roll down from her eyes, "Even I stay as mortal you will steal away my happiness, you really want me feel loneliness, don't you?"

Xiao Ring took a deep breath and looked at the red creature, "Your the Blood Slime aren't you? One of toy of those ants."

"They sure like to play these conquering games," Xiao Ring walked to Blood Slime and said, then crouched down and touched the Blood Slime, "You know, you came at correct time, form slave pact."

"Do you know me?" Blood Slime's voice transmitted into Xiao Ring, as he could only talk to others through touch or by forming a pact.

Xiao Ring understood and she nodded, "Blood Slime give me your powers, anyway, you were planning to make me chosen one aren't you, and my mother, you also bring her here in thought that I want revenge and guardian pact."

"How do you know? who are you." Blood Slime was a visible shock, even though he didn't have any face.

Xiao Ring blinked and then made her mouth round as she realise, "Yes, I'm just child, hmm... I was suppressing this but well... mother and sister is dead so isn't matter much," Xiao Ring said and she looked at Blood Slime with a smile.

Blood Slime stared at the young girl who smiled innocently up at him, and he felt a chill that ran all the way down to his core. She had bright eyes and rosy cheeks, but for a fleeting moment, he saw her as a bloodthirsty warrior, maniacally cackling as she hacked through the corpses of her enemies. He could barely believe it was the same person.

"Form a slave pact," Xiao Ring said as Blood Slime like an obedient pet formed the slave pact. He doesn't has the will to disobey this girl in front of him.

pàпdá-ňᴏνêι.сóМ "Well," Xiao Ring saw her body surging with power, she closed her eyes to feel this power, and guiding this power effectively she continuously broke through Martial Art Student, Master, GrandMaster, and Soldier.

"Weak," Xiao Ring sighed. She was expecting to reach the Martial Art King or even Emperor but this Blood Slime was too weak for that.

Xiao Ring sighed and looked at her mother and sister, "Revenge," Xiao Ring closed her eyes and thought about her previous life and she chuckled, "Revenge is only poison, forget it, reviving mother and sister will be ideal goal, but.. don't end up in front of me otherwise whoever it is will wished fate worse than a death."

Xiao Ring stepped into the dark, musty house and her eyes began to adjust to the shadows. She spotted a large clay pot filled with cooking oil and a pile of stones that had been used for kindling fires in the past. Gently, she grabbed the oil jug, took some stones from the pile, and set them aside.

After finding oil and stone to lit up fire, Xiao Ring pulled her mother and sister's cold bodies together to an empty place.

She searched near a cluster of trees and found long sticks. She wove them together, creating a makeshift bed. She placed her mother and sister's bodies upon it and covered them in oil, before igniting the fire with a single spark from her flint stone. The burning aroma filled the air as the flames licked their lifeless skin, consuming their remains.

The smoke from the burning Xiao Ring filled the air with an acrid smell, and tears welled up in her eyes. Her throat tightened as she watched the flames slowly consume what remained of her mother and sister's bodies. When all that was left was ash, she carefully scooped it into a jar.

"Mother and sister, just wait, I revive you," Xiao Ring said with a smile. She truly wanted to live the life of a normal mischievous girl and was grateful to have this mother and sister, however now that this life had been stolen away, she had to do anything to revive them and have that life back.
