"...So after they had attacked your village, they brought you here?" Asked Luke, while he was walking beside the brown hair girl, the girl who apologized to him first. After the three girls heard the whole story of the boy, Nu Zia, how he met Luke and why they were in the bandits' lair, the three of them immediately apologized as well.
"Yes, the guards around the village couldn't hold them off.. The two silver armored cultivators had overwhelmed the guards in our village easily." Answered the girl. She has introduced herself as Xu Lang, a herbalist of the village and well known by everyone in t
Arriving back to the village, a few girls began to cry when they saw the condition of their home in such wreckage. The place used to be familiar scenery, one they spend most of their lives interacting with their neighbors, friends, parents, or lovers. Now, it was only a reminder of an awful event. Leading them to become playthings for those who had the power.
[On the night when Luke, Hong Ming, and all of the Three Headed Serpent sect members left the cave of the ancient ruin.]"Tsk."Clicking her tongue, the young w
[Back to the present.]~"Good, keep going."~ Taking a big chunk of ore, glinting with silver hue under the sunlight, Luke stared towards the ore and said, "This leftover is more than what I had expected.""Saint's Steel, It's a rare material that could only be obtainable in the Warrior of the Deep Earths' territory. Thankfully, I had some connections back then. I had a lot of it." Answered Rein as he glanced to the ore in Luke's hand. His gaze deepened, seemingly recalling something from the past.The Saga of the Unbroken 131. Repair
"Fancy, now that you have fixed your android, what next?" Questioned Rein while he crossed his arms nonchalantly, "And let's end this spell. We can't waste your energy just because I would like to be outside of your body even for a minute longer.""Ah, alright." Cutting the link to the magic spell, Luke cancelled the spell instantly and let Rein come back to his consciousness. Although the Astral Projection spell seemed to be splitting his soul and Rein's, but in fact they only made a sort of a copy of Rein's consciousness by using the spell, so Rein
*ROAR!!* Threading above the clouds, a shadow of a gigantic being could be seen. Flying unhindered as his form was one of the feared races beneath the heaven, the black dragon shifted his body while he was flying at unnatural speed. Unlike his massive form, he was faster than he looks, as well as tougher. Yet, he was controlled by someone who wasn't even bigger than his claw. This person has commanded him through his own mind, diminishing any thoughts of retaliation. In fact, the moment he thinks of how to escape from the person's grasp, his head would have an unbearable headache and his physique would squirm in pain, as if thousands of bugs were eating him alive. "Over there." Just like the usual days, the person who would order him whenever he pleased. The blood in his body started to boil by the thought of being put into a slave to something much inferior than his bloodline. However, the pain and mind control has been proven effective, no matter how much rage and anger that has
"No, it's like this." Slowing her movements to show Luke how it was done, Xu Lang gently grind the dry leaves, making crunching noises as they started to become powders. Lifting the paper that holds the powder gently, Xu Lang pour them down towards a cup of hot, sterilized water. Taking out a wooden spoon to dissolve the powder, Xu Lang took out a plant similar looking to a ginseng. Putting it inside the wooden bowl, Xu Lang began to reach out for a wooden pestle and pound the ginseng to paste. Sniffing the scent of the mixed herbs, Xu Lang smiled in satisfaction and her hands held the bowl to a small cauldron. Letting the liquid to flow into the cauldron, Xu Lang took a little peek inside, checking the amount of space that was filled by the half-done medicine. Lit the fire beneath the small stone shaped stove, which was holding the butt of the cauldron, both of them watching the medicine boiling as the medicine's odour began to spread the atmosphere. It has been nine days since Lu
*Knock knock!* The sounds of someone's knocking could be heard from the door. Turning his head towards that direction, Luke uttered, "You can continue with the herbs, Xu Lang. Let me check who it is." Giving a quick side glance to Luke, Xu Lang replied, "If it's Lin Yi, tell her that the ointment to heal her feet is yet ready. I should have time until tomorrow morning." Nodding in acknowledgement, Luke said, "Got it." Then, Luke started walking towards the door calmly. Before long, he opened the door and saw who it was, but the figure who stood in front of him was drenched in blood from head to toe. Her face and hairs dirty in dust and mud, while her expression was weary to behold. "Yi Mo?" Spoke Luke in an unbelievable tone, the person that the whole village has been waiting all this time was finally here. But her appearance was far from what Luke had expected. Her eyes looking unfocused and absentminded, she muttered softly before fainting to the floor. "Help.." Catching the
