The night ca and went quietly inside the room. Then, in the first minutes of the new day, Ruri slowly awakened. She stretched, feeling the soft and warm bed she was in. Then, she opened her eyes and found herself in that elevated place, and the bloody and agonizing mories flooded her mind.
She quickly focused on her master, who was completely unconscious, showing no signs of waking up anyti soon. But, despite still being red, a new layer of skin was already subtly covering him. Seeing that, she sighed in relief. She had seen her master’s recovery ability before and knew that since he got to this point, her master would eventually go back to normal.
Then, she noticed a strange gaze upon her.
Ruri turned around, and her eyes t Almin’s. He was completely ensnared by earth runes. Even his mouth was sealed. He wasn’t fully recovered yet, but even if he were, he wouldn’t be able to easily get out of there.
"Hm?" Ruri felt his strangeness without understanding.
She then jumped off the giant and soft mound of fat. Turning to her master; only then did she realize. Both of them were completely red... and her master was without clothes... again. How many tis did her master end up without clothes because of so ridiculous situation? She already lost the count. Her gaze then quickly shifted away.
Almin was there, still focused on her with a strange expression, while Ruri tried to calm down from the shock. After a few seconds, she took steps in Almin’s direction gently.
"Master, for so reason, wants you as a... pet. I’m already enough, but if he insists..." She murmured, unsure if she was speaking to Almin or to herself.
Almin felt a chill on his back after hearing those words. ’He... he truly wants too!’ he thought.
Ruri closed her eyes, feeling sothing, then opened them slowly with a smile. She didn’t know why, but now she could use the array whenever she wanted, and a small amount of earth runes was transferred to her.
After a while, Alm and Bruno would realize that Ruri’s soul had reached a whole level above a cultivator in the sa realm as her. It seems that, due to the overflowing power of their divine soul being poured through the array, she was slowly nurtured by it. With that, a small part of their soul rged into hers. Thus, she could manipulate the array slightly.
Ruri used so of those earth runes that were restored along with the whale’s body and managed to release the part covering Almin’s mouth. She wanted to seize the mont.
Ruri then asked firmly, "Master seems to like you... you’re a dual cultivation practitioner... you’re only interested in won, right?"
She looked closely at those eyes that trembled in astonishnt. She had to know the truth once and for all. Or she wouldn’t be able to dispel this unease.
It took a few seconds for Almin’s mind to process, and he exploded, "Where the hell did you get that damn idea, you brat! Your grandfather, I, am very straight!"
Ruri instinctively took a step back. But... she seed to feel sothing strange in those words... and in that look... and in that aura...
’They are... extrely similar. Even the way of yelling.’ Ruri ntally concluded, surprised.
Ruri then sighed, astonished and, at the sa ti, relieved. It seems there’s sothing there that she didn’t know. ’In the future, when master trusts more, he will tell the truth.’ She concluded.
Soon, her eyes turned to Almin, who was still emanating intense fury. Then, an innocent smile blood on Ruri’s face as she thought of sothing. She imdiately turned into a cute and innocent little girl. Almin’s aura was disard imdiately, and he felt sothing very strange... sothing he thought had died a long ti ago ca back alive in him.
’Hm... indeed, very similar.’ Ruri confird again. This was the most effective weapon against her master. Just be a bit more incisive and pretend to cry a bit, and Bruno would do whatever she wanted.
She then spoke calmly and sweetly, "Why were you looking at like that? Do you also have those hidden inclinations of my master..."
Almin had no idea what she was talking about but felt extrely annoyed being compared to that fat lolicon.
"I’m not like that guy, don’t be stupid."
Ruri covered her lips, smiling, understanding his earlier look. Indeed, the scene was very strange if one didn’t know the context. But strangely, she didn’t want to clarify completely.
She then had an idea and said, "Master isn’t that bad, not exactly what you’re thinking. But I won’t be small forever, so I just have to eliminate any others that co close, and everything will be solved." She spoke with a sinister smile.
Almin sighed, seeming to understand sothing more. "This whale must like those Montide girls. My master also likes them a lot and takes better care of them than usual." Suddenly, Almin stopped, feeling a killing intent directed at him. One must rember that Montide was Ruri’s ho country, the sa one conquered by the Divinestone Clan.
"You... does your master have people from my land with him? Did he kidnap them?" Ruri asked seriously.
"Not exactly. We got lucky. When we were adventuring a few months ago, we encountered a caravan heading towards the Three Extres Sect. They ca from the West, and strangely, they didn’t have much protection. There, we found a dozen Montide won, all already slaves."
Ruri imdiately made the connection and couldn’t believe her luck. Exactly a few months ago, and exactly twelve won from her land. "From the west?"
"They belonged to so young cultivator who was in the West, and he sent them to the central sect. But he didn’t personally protect them; it was a great find by my master." Almin spoke calmly.
Ruri now had certainty and gave a smile. Those were the slaves that the Divinestone clan gave to Innoa; their screams when Innoa violently took them in a fit of rage echoed in her mind for several nights.
"Are they here in the sect?" Ruri asked sowhat anxiously.
"Yes, my master likes them; he even avoids hurting them too much. When they behave, of course," Almin replied without much interest.
Ruri then clenched her fist firmly, trying to calm herself. That old man was taking advantage of them... but at least they weren’t killed or being tortured too much. Now, she had the opportunity to save them.
"Don’t think anything strange, my master..." Almin was quickly interrupted.
"Master here, master there... why do you still call that old bastard like that?" Ruri asked, making Almin look at her strangely.
"You are now the pet of my master. He even slapped that old man and made it clear that you wouldn’t co back... if you try, he will kill you for sure." Ruri laughed maliciously, recalling Alm’s words to the old man.
"What?!" Almin was astonished. But from Ruri’s look, he was sure she wasn’t lying.
"Don’t be so dramatic. Master will treat you well and won’t let that old man touch you. Just be obedient when he gives you a dark look... and be..."
Ruri continued talking to Almin for quite a while. Without Alm or Bruno asking, she took it upon herself to establish so relationship with this new mber. She already knew her master well enough to know that he wasn’t very tactful in building relationships.
It didn’t take long for Almin to start talking without realizing about the location of the girls. And Ruri subtly started extracting many other things, like tips on the sect’s dual cultivation technique. Almin easily beca an open book in front of her. And that was her greatest success in manipulation; perhaps it’s because Almin was strangely similar to her master, whom she knew well.
***
Three days later, Alm and Bruno woke up. Their physical cultivation once again demonstrated its power. The level of those wounds should take one or two months to recover for any ordinary cultivator. But in a few days, they were physically perfect.
Alm and Bruno got up from the floor and found themselves covered with a blanket. Soon, the image of Ruri on the bed in a ditative state appeared.
Then, to their total surprise, Almin was in the corner of the room, fully recovered and without any earth rune binding him. He was also ditating silently and didn’t even notice their awakening.
’That brat is already showing her manipulative claws. Excellent,’ Alm thought to himself, laughing sinisterly.
Bruno then comnted awkwardly, ’Well... she helped a lot. We didn’t really know how to deal with that troubleso brother since we couldn’t keep him sealed forever.’
They then focused on their bodies. They confird that the separated world they used as an inventory continued to emanate its power. They only had to use the two techniques from ti to ti to restore its power.
So, they fully absorbed the Yin and Infernal Laws from inside the crystals. After everything was consud, their cultivation only increased a bit. Well, they still reached the second level of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, and the second wing was finally completed. Although it seed slow in their minds, it was actually crazily fast to anyone else.
Another point was that, to their surprise, their bloodline beca incredibly denser than before.
’A second drop of bloodline, now running in our veins... how is this possible...’ Bruno comnted.
Upon careful analysis, Alm and Bruno realized that the Infernal Laws, the abyss, the queen, and everything inside that place were connected to the Behemoth bloodline.
They almost died for not knowing this before. But now, they have discovered a thod to beco incredibly more powerful quickly and enhance their bloodline. Obtaining crystals beca an absolute priority, and knowledge about these things would co as they grew stronger.
