Ronghua was entertained by his dread, “Are you terribly scared?”

Xu Xin shivered, fearing that her sword would move closer, “Of... of course!”

Then he heard the evil response from Ronghua with an angel smile, “When you tortured Mo penally, had you ever thought about this moment? You teased him when I was absent, but now I am back. I will avenge all the wounds he was suffering from on you. Considering his unhealthy state, I think it must be a huge price for you to pay.”

Xu Xun could not help quivering for fright. He could only feel panic since this woman showed up in front of him.

He did not know who she was and what she would do to him. He only heard from the people back from the mysterious territory that Xia Pumo was accompanied by a powerful woman. They had planned to kill him after entering the mysterious territory, so they ambushed along the road, whereas things did not go on as they expected. They were defeated by that woman on the contrary.

She managed to trap them all alone and treated them ruthlessly, which was much more than they could bear.

Was that woman the one next to him?

Those people were punished by her even though they did not do anything while he had commanded his man to caught maimed Xia Pumo and penalized him when she was not here. He even destroyed his Dantian, and this woman was likely to know this. What would then happen to him? What should he do?

An idea suddenly came to his mind, “Father! Yes, I can ask my father for help!” A string of beads was wrapping around his wrist. Beyond Ronghua’s sight, he hid his hand behind his back, moved the beads in his hand, and crumbed one stealthily. Then he began to make time for his father to come.

“We did not torture him! Those wounds were made by others instead of us!”

Ronghua raised an eyebrow, “Well, do you mean it was some else that harmed him?”

Xu Xin smiled obsequiously, “Yes, yes! They abused him, and I am just responsible for bringing him over for judgment.”

Ronghua looked at his hypocritical face with her constant fake smile. Did he treat her like a fool? There were both old wounds and new scars on Xia Pumo, which was not likely to be made by the same person at the same time apparently. Was not he trying to conceal his atrocity by killing Xia Pumo in advance?

However, he insisted that he had nothing to do with it. This human was really ludicrous.

Ronghua sneered, “His injuries, some are old, but some are new. There’s one newly added. Do you mean the new ones are made by himself?”

Xu Xin was wordless. He just said that to put off her movements.

“Do you think I am easy to dupe?” Ronghua asked.

Xu Xin immediately shook his head, “No, absolutely not!”

Ronghua questioned him coldly, “No? When I left, Mo was strong and healthy, without one scar. Only after a few days passed, now he had wounds all over his body, and his Dantian was damaged. How do you explain?”

She finally explicitly stated the point.

Xu Xin was sweating. This woman would not give up until she found the one to compensate for Xia Pumo’s damaged Dantian. However, he knew it better than anybody that the Golden Pellet in his Dantian was destroyed and could never restore!

Ronghua did not want to waste time on this meaningless talk. Her sword turned into the whip and wrapped more and more tightly around his neck. Xu Xin could feel his throat was pressed, and he was hard to breathe. He realized that she wanted to kill him.

“Come... come and save me....” He screamed exhaustedly to let his men hear him.

They shouted, “Release our young master! Quickly!”

Then they rushed forward with their swords promiscuously.

Ronghua would be willing to fight with them for a while when she was in a better mood, but now, she was not. She was furious for Xu Xin’s behaviors.

Ronghua looked at Xu Xin. Her eyes turned red again without knowing when. She played with her fingers and did not give those people even a glance, “I found Mo’s Dantian did not react, no matter how much spiritual power I transferred to him. He might lose his life if I were not highly cultivated with ample power. Tell me the truth. What have you done to his Dantian? Who took his Golden Pellet away?”

Ronghua clapped another hand to the air, and then a dark blue flame flew towards Xu Xin’s followers, who were burned to ashes at once.

Xu Xin was stunned and even forgot there was a whip around his neck. How could this fire be so terrible! Even Samadhi True Fire could not be compared with it!

“In my view, only your death can make up for the pain Mo had suffered!” After saying that, Ronghua added power to her hand, and Xu Xin could not make any sound now. His eyes bulged, and he had less strength to struggle.

“Let him go!” Suddenly, there sounded an august but old voice from the air. A flash of lightning dropped upon them along with that voice. Ronghua noticed that and dragged Xu Xin to stay away. Only a deep fissure remained at the place they stood on before.

Interesting! Ronghua raised her head and saw a large number of humans standing in the void and holding a long sword, respectively. The man who stood in front of them was in his forties with a black whip in hand. Ronghua guessed that he was the leader.

Hearing that, Ronghua increased the strength of her hand instead, and Xu Xin’s face grew paler.

That wrinkly couldn’t stand by anymore. He dashed towards them, “You monster! Leave my son alone!”

Ronghua japed at him, “If you came one step closer, I might be frightened and lose control of my hand. With a sudden shake, the head of your son may not be on his neck.”

He took a step back angrily due to her threat and did not move forward again. Someone had heard about Ronghua’s cultivation, so he came close to that man’s side to report, “Patriarch, this woman was high-cultivated. The Gaos were all defeated and still lay there because of the severe injuries. We need to be careful.”

The patriarch felt funny about the advice, “Ugh! The Gaos? They were just the dogs of our family. Just let them die.”

“But her fire....”

Ronghua looked back at those three humans. They were lying on the ground and seriously injured. None of the people above wanted to save them. Neither did she. She would not waste effort on those that attempted to kill her.

Ronghua pointed at him and decreased a little strength of the other hand, “Why didn’t I see my zither? Where is it?”

Xu Xin’s father looked at her, “What zither?”

Ronghua pulled Xu Xin forward and slightly loosened the whip, “Tell him what I want?”

Xu Xin coughed severely as soon as he could, “Daddy, help me! Now! Give... give the zither to her. The one belonged to Xia Pumo! The zither had the soul of Mu Rongzhe inside. Give her now, or I will die! Dad!”

His behavior was such a disgrace!

Even Ronghua felt shameful for him. Xu Xin said that with tears and sobs, which made Ronghua frown. How much did he fear death?

“Bring me that zither!” The patriarch of the imperial clan of Sword gave the order quickly and then lowered his voice, “Inform the people of the imperial clan of Zither!”

“Yes, master.”

Ronghua watched their communication. She did not know their ideas, but she was not afraid of that!

The plots on the platform were full of high lights and excitement, and the crowd below witnessed these with delights. The fight between superiors was really brilliant! But should not they hide to a safe place now? Why did they remain here?

Xia Pumo was lying on the ice bed. He was too feeble to open his eyes and could not see things clearly. Was Ronghua fighting for justice for him? Then something like smog was floating around his body. Is he...Murong Zhe?

“Mo, how do you feel?” The fog seemed to make a sound, which proved that he was Murong Zhe!

Xia Pumo became nervous, “Why did you come back? I told you to go!”

The fog came near to his ear, “If I were injured like you and asked you to go, would you do it?”

“Of course not!” Xia Pumo answered, without any hesitation.

The fog chuckled, “That’s it! Why do you ask me to go if you won’t?”

Xia Pumo fell to silence. He was frail now and did not want to make too much explanation.

A few spots of golden light appeared near Xia Pumo’s feet and then slowly went around his whole body. The wounds were healed as the golden light passed by. Xia Pumo sensed the power of these light spots.

He was surprised, “What is this? Its effects were even stronger than the elixir!”

Murong Zhe smiled, “These are Ronghua’s innate golden light, which could cure all the injuries, regardless of number and severity.”

Xia Pumo noticed the word innate and realized that the golden light should be hard to obtain.

“What’s the price you paid?”

Murong Zhe anticipated that he would ask about this, “Not much. I just signed a contract with her.”

“What contract?” Xia Pumo suddenly had a gloomy prediction.

Murong Zhe hesitated, “It’s fine. Just share my life with hers!” It’s the soul contract!

Xia Pumo was shocked, “What?”

Then he fell to silence and did not speak anymore. Murong Zhe became anxious, and then he heard Xi Pumo whimpering.

He was panicked immediately.

“Mo, don’t cry! Please! It was my own free will, not compulsory. It’s true! You can ask Ronghua if you don’t believe me!”

Xia Pumo wiped tears away with a recovered hand, saying with a trembling voice, “Come out! Let me see you.”

Murong Zhe paused, but the fog still changed to his figure next to Xia Pumo. They stared at each other.

Xia Pumo looked at his pale face and stretched out a hand to touch his face. Murong Zhe’s temperature was different from that of an average human body.

“Why did you do this? You have lost your freedom ever since. Aren’t you eager for freedom the most?”

Murong Zhe smiled, “No, you’re the most important in my heart.”

Xia Pumo was so moved that he pressed Murong Zhe’s head closer and kissed him. When their lips met each other, Xia Pumo could not help kissing him harder. As time passed at the place isolated from the outside, their erotic feeling grew.

Murong Zhe temporarily forgot Xia Pumo’s wounds. In fact, he forgot anything else and could only focus on the man in front of him.

Their sexual passion gradually raised, and that emotional fluctuation conveyed from Murong Zhe’s soul to Ronghua.

Ronghua amazed about what she felt. What were they doing? Even she could feel the strong desire of Murong Zhe.

Xia Pumo was biting Murong Zhe’s lips.

This made it much harder for Murong Zhe to control himself, “Baby... that’s too much...baby!”

However, Xia Pumo was already erotogenic and could not stop at all, not to mention what Murong Zhe had done for him, which could only make him crazier.

He left Murong Zhe’s lips and moved to kiss his neck. Murong Zhe had tried hard to calm down, worried about his health, but now found Mo was too energetic to receive any extreme care!

Ronghua cut off the connection with Murong Zhe directly but still warned him, “Mo was still weak. Be careful! Otherwise, his injuries might be worse.”

Ronghua cared so much that she even forgot Murong Zhe could share her golden light after signing the soul contract. Besides, Murong Zhe was not an ordinary monster, so he had his way to apply the golden light to Xi Pumo. Xia Pumo was nearly recovered after that and was okay to take some exercise.

Even though he knew this, Murong Zhe still cared for Xia Pumo’s physical condition and restrained his force, only letting Xia Pumo vent his lust on him.

“Mo, all the thing I want is your safety, even the price is my life. Even if I could never get back, it’s enough for me to know you live well in this world!” He said so in his heart.
