*gik* Tears streamed down Zhao Ying's cheeks as she used her light energy to heal Zhao Tian who was sitting on the couch "T-Tian'er, your chest..." she stammered her heart heavy with pain.
Zhao Tian gently lifted his hand to brush away the tears cascading down her cheeks "Don't worry... it's alright."
"No! It's not alright at all... see all the b-blood in your dress...." She muttered as she concentrated her light energy on healing him with tears streaming down her eyes.
*tap* *tap* "Master!" Fei Ziyu hurriedly came over with some water in her hand. Zhao Tian took the glass of water from her hand his eyes catching sight of her eyes moistened with tears.
After drinking the water, he gave the cup to her and saw his chest fully healed. He raised his left hand to pinch Zhao Ying's cheek showing off that there was no lingering pain or injury "See, it's gone!"
"Tian'er!' Zhao Ying plunged into his arms and Zhao Tian hugged her back with a soft smile on his face. Fei Ziyu also wiped away the tears seeing him all right.
*tap* Xia Shenyi came out of the room and Zhao Tian glanced at her "Shenyi!" With a sigh, Xia Shenyi walked to him and sat beside him leaning in for a kiss.
*smooch* After planting a sweet kiss on Zhao Tian's lips, Xia Shenyi pulled back, "How is she?" Zhao Tian asked and Xia Shenyi shook her head helplessly "That woman is good. I gave her a healing pill... I am shocked that you didn't die during the fight."
Zhao Ying raised her head wiping away the tears "That bitch! How dare she hurt my Tian'er!"
Xia Shenyi spoke looking at her "Ying, don't provoke her... She actually has a cultivation base higher than me."
"H-Huh?" Zhao Ying's eyes trembled in shock as she turned to Zhao Tian "T-Tian'er, how did you even defeat her?"
Zhao Tian spoke with a frown "She couldn't go all out and her body was quite weak. She didn't use any elemental attacks and her astral energy..."
Xia Shenyi continued "Her astral energy flow is uneven. It's because her cultivation base was almost broken. Someone has broken her cultivation..."
Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow "That's why she is weak?"
Xia Shenyi gave a nod "If she went all out, your whole Middle Star would be destroyed."
"Wha-" Both Zhao Ying and Fei Ziyu's eyes widened in sheer shock. Their whole earth would be shattered?
Zhao Tian asked with a frown, "What about that flame?" Xia Shenyi shook her head "I don't know about that, when I touched her body it was cool...not burning."
"I see..." Zhao Tian muttered and Zhao Ying spoke nervously "T-Then, Tian'er... why did you bring her here and heal her? You should have dropped her in a forest or desert...with no water and let her die. If she is here, she would destroy everything..."
Zhao Tian shook his head "No, she won't... she is my slave now."
Huh? The three of them were surprised to hear this "Your slave?"
With a nod, Zhao Tian leisurely leaned back on the couch"A blue flame was burning her whole body, so she pleaded for my help to cool down with my ice. So in exchange for her life, I turned her into a slave. Fair deal, don't you think?"
Xia Shenyi squinted her eyes "A blue flame... guess we will only know after she wakes up."
*swish* At this time a black scroll appeared on Zhao Tian's hand "Sheny see this scroll. I got this in the ruin but it is empty."
Xia Shenyi took the scroll and opened it to see. her eyes narrowed looking at the plain scroll "I will look into it, Tian!"
Zhao Tian gave a nod "Then, I am leaving!" Huh? Zhao Ying shook her head and hugged him tightly "No, you are not leaving... you might get hurt again." In her heart, she couldn't bear the thought of him enduring any more pain or suffering.
Zhao Tian gently cupped her face within his palms and planted a kiss on her lips "I told you not to worry anymore." Seeing his soft eyes a sigh escaped her lips "Please don't get hurt again Tian'er...."
"I won't" he chuckled softly and Zhao Ying got down from his arms. Zhao Tian stood up stretching his hands "I will go and change my clothes before leaving."
As he walked to his room in the mansion, Zhao Ying swiftly followed him to help him with the dressing.
*smooch* Zhao Ying gently hugged his neck, his lips still nibbling on his lips as Zhao Tian hugged her waist softly. "Tian'er..." She whispered his name softly as their lips continued to meet in a sweet embrace.
A little later, she pulled back the kiss, her eyes full of concern "Be careful Tian'er, what would I do if anything happened to you?"
Zhao Tian's eyes softened, his fingers caressing her cheek and with a soft sigh Zhao Ying fastened the last buttons on his shirt.
Zhao Tian planted a soft kiss on her forehead "I'll be going, Ying'er!"
...
Ling Xin looked around the treasure room which was almost empty. What was left remaining here were some cultivation techniques and some pill bottles.
A sigh escaped her lips "He disappeared a while ago. Why is he still not back yet?"
*swish* At this time, Zhao Tian appeared there and a look of surprise flashed across Ling Xin's face seeing his casual attire like normal humans.
"You look cool in that." She muttered softly and Zhao Tian just showed a small smile. Wha-Ling Xin was stunned seeing his smiling face, this was the first time he smiled over their entire time together.
"Maybe, you should smile like that more often... you look cute!"
Zhao Tian didn't mind her and looked around seeing the almost emptied treasure room. "Time to leave, I guess..."
Ling Xin gave a nod looking at him "Do you know the exit?" Zhao Tian nodded and walked to the side of the room and saw small stairs leading down.
After a while of walking, *creek* Opening the door, Zhao Tian came outside and it was already dark outside with the night sky.
Ling Xin took a deep breath of fresh air and a heavy sigh left her lips again recollecting the things that happened inside the Ancient Ruins which almost took her life twice.
Her eyes glanced at the handsome young man standing beside him, his white hair fluttering in the gentle breeze and her eyes grew tender "Mr.Tian."
Zhao Tian turned his head to her and Ling Xin walked near to him, removing the storage ring from her hand "You can take this."
"You saved me inside the Ancient Ruins, so you can have this since you were curious about this storage ring. I don't know how else should I thank you."
Zhao Tian shook his head "I don't need that. You can just keep them."
Eh? "R-Really? I mean this is a storage ring... which is really valuable, so..." As she spoke Zhao Tian raised his hand and a ring appeared in his hand "I already have one."
"O-Oh, I see..." Ling Xin muttered as a sigh escaped her lips. then is this the last time I see him? "Uh, Mr.Tian, if you have time please drop by our Sect."
Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow "Your sect? The name is Blossom something right?"
Ling Xin smiled wryly "Lunar Blossom Sect, Mr.Tian."
Zhao Tian nodded his head "By the way, What is your name?"
Gah! Ling Xin's lips twitched upon hearing this "My name is Ling Xin."
"Oh! Ling Xin...I'll remember it!" He said and disappeared from there. *swoosh*
Ling Xin shook her head wryly "I should also go and meet my Sect people they should be worried too."
...
Outside the Ancient Ruins-
"W-We have to return to our Sect..." A woman muttered and another woman beside her let out a deep sigh "Our Sect Master."
*swish* At this time, Ling Xin landed beside them from the air "Girls!" Seeing her teh women's eyes widened in shock "S-Sect master?"
They quickly hugged her, their eyes moistening with tears "I am glad that you were alright, Sect Master"
Ling Xin giggled softly patting their backs "I am also glad, you came out without injuries... How did you come out?"
A woman shook her head "We don't know Sect Master...we heard a loud sound and suddenly everyone is outside the Ancient Ruins."
Ling Xin frowned hearing this, Loud sound? Is it the walls? It transported everyone after we entered the treasure room?
"What happened to the other Sect people?"
"Seems like the people from Frozen Peak Sect and Silver Lance Sect people were alright, But Golden Flame Sect lost some of its members and we can't see people from Stormweaver Sect here."
"I wonder what happened to them?"
"I see... Let's leave"
