Chapter 30
Chapter 30: The tea-cup in Quanzhi’s hands fell down and shattered?
While Naagina was guiding Angelea on how to entrap Shenshah in their conspiracy, he along with Shao was merrily walking towards Quanzhi's cave.
"Heyyy?"
"Hey?"
Seeing no response I decided to change my tone.
"Oyeee?"
"What's the use of those antennae like big rabbit ears if you are still deaf?"
Shao puffed her cheeks.
"What?"
She spoke in an annoyed tone, stopping in her tracks.
In impulse, she mocked and spoke shit about Naagina but it was only later when she came out of Xenia's cave, she realised that she had lost one of her important customers.
She had been thinking of how much spirit stones she might have lost by losing Naagina as her regular weapon buyer, so she didn't bother answering Shenshah's call.
But he is going too far, her rabbit ears are so cute, everyone always praises them. Lots of people are willing to die to just touch them. How dare he mock them?
Her soft and cute Rabbit's ears are bottom line~
Looking at her strong gaze, I knew I might have gone far.
"I was just saying instead of walking continuously, Why not directly teleport us? Then once I am done with Quanzhi, you can teleport me back to my house down the mountain."
Hearing Shenshah's innocent words, Shao sneered.
"Hehe, seems you really know nothing!"
"Do you even know how much energy it takes for that much teleportation? I can only teleport through a very small distance and that too just once a day. Even your scammy Naagina is the same."
"Unless we master space laws thoroughly and breakthrough to a higher realm we can't do such things."
'I see! From her words, I got the clue: their realm is high but not that high!'
Given her grumpy mood, I didn't bother asking her anything more as we soon arrived next to Quanzhi's cave.
"Is this your other girlfriend's place?"
Shao asked nonchalantly.
"Go in and do whatever you want to do. I will wait outside. Remember, don't spend much time inside, my time is limited."
Shao glared at me as if trying to warn me.
I could understand her plight.
She has to escort me at least a safe distance outside. Who knows if that Naagina suddenly has a change of heart and comes for revenge?
If I get hurt then she, because of our bond will by default suffer the damage.
Without wasting any further time, I went directly inside.
Inside, a woman in pure-white robes was sitting cross-legged, meditating diligently.
She had her unique charm.
Her face was clear as water, those prominent-sharp eyebrows and her silky-loose black hairs vibed well with the dark background of the cave, making her look even more enchanting.
"Quanzhi?"
With a soft sound I bent a little and touched her shoulders to give a little stimulus.
"Who dares?"
Her eyes instantly opened.
Feeling a sudden touch on her shoulder, she was about to take an alarming position but when she saw who the culprit was, her actions paused.
"Shenshah?" josei
Her eyes were full of disbelief.
"Is it really you?"
Looking at her, whose eyes were staring at me so deeply as if it was a dream, I waved my right arm.
"Of course, it's me!"
Hearing my affirmation, her worries subsided.
She hurriedly got up and quickly prepared a place for me to sit down as she started preparing tea.
Looking at her slightly trembling body, I knew she was trying to hide her panic.
I kept looking at her small actions and did not say anything.
After a few minutes, she finally sat beside me and handed me a cup of tea.
"Shenshah, so why are you here?"
There was an unhidden smile on her perfectly oval face.
Since the last time she visited Shenshah at his house, for some reason, his shadow became even more firm in her maiden heart.
She regretted why she didn't confess to him earlier? Now someone else married and stole him!
But she can't do anything, people are already married and expecting their first child. She will be a third wheel if she spoke out her feelings aloud.
Maybe she might even cause a rift between Shenshah and Saharika? She didn't want to be a home-spoiler.
So she left his house that day and decided to cut all ties, thinking firmly in her heart that in future, she will never bother him!
Let him live happily while she tries to live her own life.
But no matter how hard she tries, she can't get his picture out of her mind. At that point she realised how deeply she had already fallen.
Whenever she thinks of Saharika happily snuggling in Shenshah's embrace, a part of her heart hurts so bad.
It twitches and brings so much pain…
But…. at least…..
Xenia, who is just like her…having a secret crush on Shenshah, too didn't end up with him.
In her biased mind, this fact alone is enough to put a solace to her agitating heart.
Therefore, she was happy to see Shenshah.
She thought Shenshah specially came from the village to visit her in the sect. Last time she left in a hurry, maybe Shenshah was worried and came to see if she was okay?
The thought that he made this journey just to see her, alone made her heart so inexplicably sweet.
Like all women, she too is inherently duplicitous when it comes to love and hate.
Even though she said, she has cut ties and willl never see or bother Shenshah in the future, but him visiting to check on her made her face instantly rosy. How ironic!
When there are feelings involved, no matter how good the relationship is, competitiveness will naturally arise.
Like Shao, who considered Naagina as her biggest rival; for Quanzhi, Xenia was her biggest rival.
Since even her rival didn't get Shenshah's love then it's okay.
At least, she won't be alone in the sect who failed on her first love.
Her good sister Xenia shall accompany her on this sad yet long cultivation journey.
She will try her best to find a suitable medicine for her.
But Shenshah's next words were destined to spill cold water all over her little thoughts.
I knew just like Xenia, this girl too wanted to be with me but unlike Xenia, Quanzhi was much more reserved and shy.
Only way to stimulate her was to give her a big shock.
And a big shock is what I planned to give her.
Taking a deep breath, I spoke in one sentence,
"Quanzhi, I and Xenia got married yesterday!"
Snap~
Instantly, the tea-cup in Quanzhi's hands fell down and shattered.
