A Tale of Chase and Love s1

Chapter 27



Fu Jin need not wait for his brother’s answer as he walked back to his stage and picked up the cauldron he had brought.

“Big bro, as one of the guardians of this library, it’s not nice for me to cause havoc in it. I shall wait for you at my place today. Do you dare to come? Please don’t fail to arrive or else I’ll view you as a coward.” said Fu Jin. Then he turned to face Han Liang, who was trying to shout but did not produce any sound since Fu Jin had sealed his voice.

Han Liang could also not believe what he was facing. Who in this life wants to be crippled?

No one!

Not even the weakest cultivator In the whole of Luo Ye but not only did he get crippled once, but it was also twice. The miraculous pill his master gave him did return his cultivation. The price he had to pay was eating so much pain.

But he endured it. He endured all of that pain because he wanted to return to Golden core stage level 1 which a great feat in history. But now, all that he worked hard for was gone! If he managed to recover the first time, then, it was certainly not for this time.

He cannot explain the pain he’s going through right now. Not only is he unable to move any part of his body except his eyes, but he is also unable to fall to the ground because Fu Jin’s spell rooted his to his stage firmly. On top of that, he has become blind!

Why was Fu Jin doing this to them? He also recalled him saying he saved him from the two-headed demonic bull in the forest ten years ago. But then, why does he have no recollection of that? All he could vividly recall was that Master Fu Tian saved him from the gates of Death but this Fu Jin claimed to be his savior.

Was there anything behind the scenes that he did not know about? Han Liang was confused about this whole mess. All this time Fu Jin never broke into Master’s home, why did he suddenly come here and start killing them slowly?

All this time Han Liang was thinking, Fu Jin watched him with interest, an evil smile remained on his lips. He did not care about the pain that Han Liang was going through right now. To him, this was a movie.

“You look really hot when moaning. Unfortunately, I don’t have the mood to enjoy it well. Fu Tian, see if you can treat him,” Doctor Fu said as a beam of light towards him and stayed still atop his hand.

It dimmed to reveal human hair which made Alchemist king Fu touch his head and of course, nothing was there. All he felt was bald skin and even his eyebrows were gone. So his brother had taken all of his hair just like that!

What did his brother want? How did his lazy brother get so powerful? From what he noticed, Fu Jin was not affected by his aura at all. He then also remembered that Fu Jin was able to break in without disrupting the array set by his friend, Qu Huan, a 7th level array master.

An array master is rarer to find than an alchemist. You could say 1 in 10, 000 is an alchemist but for an array master, it’s 1 in 100, 000 people. An array set by such a powerful person is not easy to break. But then, his brother came in so easily, hiding his presence so perfectly.

Now he was beginning to doubt if he was still stronger than his brother. Currently, he could not even see his brother’s cultivation. Could this mean that his brother is in emperor stage level 2 or was he wearing something that his cultivation?

Fu Jin chuckled a little as he watched this pair of Master and disciple suffer before him.

“Jin Ehuang, you finally trigger me to take revenge. I should thank you for that.” he muttered before burning the human hair in his hand to ashes which he sprinkled on the marble floor.

“May your hair rest in pieces,” Fu Jin said finally before disappearing with the cauldron in hand.

Fu Tian was finally free from the spell cast on him and he immediately rushed towards Han Liang who was close to dying from the pain. Seeing his once energetic disciple like this, Fu Tian gritted his teeth.

“Your right little bro. We should fight to the death.” Fu Tian shouted startling Han Liang who immediately vomited blood, staining Fu Tian’s white robes.

Fu Tian immediately removed all the seals in Han Liang’s acupoints and legs and he immediately fell towards the floor but Alchemist king raised his right palm and bent his pinky finger and his thumb resulting in Han Liang’s body covered by white light, making his levitate in mid-air.

“My son, let’s go treat you. You must hold on for this useless master.” Fu Tian muttered before disappearing with Han Liang and their two cauldrons.

************

Theresa continued surveying the new home that Long Ren had bought for them. It had four rooms minus the living room, kitchen and bathroom. There was also a small garden in the backyard.

“Not bad. Not bad. You did a good job,” she said as she patted Long Ren’s back but he flinched and moved away from her. Theresa was confused.

“Why are you like this? Is something wrong?” Theresa asked. She needs to show some concern for this pet or else how will she fully subdue this wild pet of hers?

“Mistress, it’s nothing. I am just sensitive to touch,” Ren lied resulting in Theresa applauding him.

“Well said! Well said! I can see you’ve learned to lie without blinking. Wonderful” said Theresa, a sly smile on her lips. Ren shivered when he saw that smile.

What is Mistress planning to do now? He hasn’t fully recovered from having periods yet. He did not want to be punished once again. Without wasting time, he prostrated before her, shocking Theresa.

“This silly pet, what’s wrong with him now? I just wanna tease him a little. Why then is he prostrating before me? I am not a god and neither his mother. This pet…” Theresa thought, frustrated at Ren’s silliness.

“Ren, get up,” she said to him, kicking him slightly in the face.

“Mistress, I will only do so if you please promise to break the contract,” said Ren, his face on the floor.

“What are you saying?” Theresa nearly shouted when she heard those words. Her free money bank was asking for permission to disappear from her life. Who would accept such a thing?

“If so, then you can continue praying” she said before kicking his head and marched away towards her room in anger. Ren shook his head and got up from prostrating.

This Mistress of his is not kind at all. He, the feared demon Lord Long Ren, prostrated before a woman today and she did not appreciate it.

Isn’t he handsome? Isn’t he obedient to her every want? Why then does she not want to fulfil all the one thing he seeks? Is it that hard for her to give up?

While Ren was lost in thoughts thinking of how to make his master willingly break the contract, Theresa was in her room lying on the soft bed.

It’s such a nice bed! She wondered what kind of material was used to produce it. It was so comfortable. She never knew that it was one of Long Ren’s untouched beds taken out from his storage ring.

Beside her bed was a cupboard containing some novels that she could read when bored. But she isn’t a fan of novels that much. She is a fan of Kim Tae Hyung!

Oh! How she missed him. She can’t ever see his face anymore neither can she even hear his voice. She couldn’t even see her friend Marabella or her parents. She is missing them now so much.

She’s used to getting a goodnight call from Marabella and goodnight kisses from Mom and Dad. Now she can’t get any kisses nor a call from her Bestie. She wants to go home now.

She really wished Han Fei would appear before her and then she’d beat the hell out of her. Because of her, the plane crashed, those passengers and pilots and hostesses, they all died.

She felt guilty for their death. Those people had families waiting for them at home but all they’d get was their corpses. How much she really wanna kill her self now.

As for her mum, Aarti, she doesn’t know if she’s okay now. From what she knows about her mum, she’d have a headache if she had a slight injury.

Now they must have assumed her dead even though they can’t find her dead body because she is alive in another world.

She seems to have travelled back to an unknown dynasty in a continent called Huo. She has not learned much in the past two days. She’s been fooling around with Ren in order to hide her pain and grief but it so seems she can’t push it away.

She’d have to face it.

Life without her bestie, her parents and Kim Tae Hyung! No, she mustn’t cry. it doesn’t solve anything.
