Corrupt Creations

"What happened? How was it?"

Seth didn\'t intend to keep her in the dark, so he told her the outcome.

"It\'s done. She is healed."

"What?! But it has only been an hour... How can she possibly be healed already? That poison was something so strong, that none of us could help her containing it.. It was a poison from a Mana Sovereign Cultivator... How is it possible for her to be healed in a single hour?"

Palace Master Yushui couldn\'t bring herself to believe his words.

"Palace Master Yushui, please go there and look with your own eyes. My words won\'t be enough to convince you."

Yushui nodded and did as he had proposed. She left in a hurry to check if that was true or not.

Seth calmly entered the palace, going directly towards Rina\'s room. He was about to give her the Glazed Lily to improve her elemental affinity with the water attribute. After that, he would study that poisonous purple mist together with Lexi.

Rina had already returned to her bedroom and was touching some wind elemental weapons she had, that were stored in the spatial ring her mother gave her. What she was doing was part of a training to enhance her elemental affinity with the wind attribute.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Suddenly, she heard someone knocking and went over to open the door. She expected it to be one of the girls, thinking it was probably Jiayi coming to have another conversation. She was quite enjoying the presence of her new friends, so she didn\'t delay on opening the door.

But to her surprise, it was Seth.

"Hi there Rina. Did you miss me?"

"Of course! Come inside, I just finished training and was thinking about visiting you."

"Oh? Really? I came in the perfect time then."

After Seth entered, he closed the door behind. His mind was struggling not to think about immediately doing dirty things with her, since he didn\'t have the opportunity to pass some time together with her after they entered the Glazed Lake Sect, but each second inside that room made it harder for him to continue sane. That\'s why the first thing he did after they were inside, was to quickly take the Glazed Lily out of his spatial ring and present it for her, hoping that part would be done quicker.

"Rina, look at this. It is a gift I acquired for you today. This flower called Glazed Lily and it is a very special item able to awaken your water elemental affinity."

"Eh? For me?"

"Yeah. I hope you like it."

She took that beautiful light blue water-type flower in her hands, feeling the rich sweet smell it had and the powerful energy flow around it.

"I love it! How do I use this?" She had just opened her mouth to ask about how to use it, when suddenly the flower started to emit a shining light. In less than a second, it dissolved into water elemental particles, entering her energy veins and starting the transformation process.

Rina felt the need to sit down and concentrate as a relaxing water attribute energy revolved around her.

Seth watched by the side, amazed by how fast things had happened. All his dirty thoughts slowly died down, since Rina\'s affinity transformation process had started and couldn\'t be interrupted for now.

He planned to turn that night on something special, since his and Rina time inside the Glazed Lake Sect was coming to an end and soon, they would have to restart their journey. But since she started the affinity unlocking process, it was pretty much ruined.

Seth kept accompanying Rina for about two to three hours, before he decided to leave. At first, he kept standing by her side, making sure he could support her in case it was necessary, but after some time, he noticed the process was happening in a really slow and mild pace. There were no risks involved as well, so he decided to leave and let her peacefully complete the process.

It was already a bit late and everyone was already resting inside their rooms, so Seth went back to the room at the second floor while talking with Lexi and planning their next steps. Lexi told him she was already analyzing the purple mist and that it wasn\'t necessary for him to do anything. In due time, she would present him the important information she found about it.

Seth entered his room, expecting it would be empty. On his conception, what happened between him and Jiang Yi was a one-time thing that wouldn\'t repeat, but just as he opened the door and saw that naked figure touching herself on top of his bed, his bloodstream accelerated like a racing vehicle, pumping blood to every cell inside his body and preparing him for the next battle.

Seth entered the room, closing the door behind him and sealing it with a Sound Isolation Barrier. He realized he didn\'t teach Jiang Yi enough manners, so he would give her the second lesson.

Wu Martial Kingdom.

Caizhi\'s father, the current king of the Wu Martial Kingdom had just received the complete report of the current situation inside the Blazing Phoenix Country. His army had conquered the enemy lands, but there were two pieces of information that was keeping him awake.

There was a permanent frown on his face and he was worried by some things that were incongruous.

The first one, being the fact that his most loyal and trustworthy general had mysteriously died in the Blazing Phoenix City, but no one knew what had happened with him. He was even wondering if the other officials were hiding something from him.

The second thing and the one that was what actually mattered the most, was the fact that the whole battalion he sent to Misty Horizon had abruptly vanished. He sent his men there to investigate, but they weren\'t able to find anyone, just a huge crater in the place where the purple Skystone mine existed.

Right now, his mind was fully concerned by the possibility that someone had actually discovered about the purple Skystone mine. His next moves were crucial, since he had to secure that area and guarantee his harvest, but at the same time he could not alert the powerful entities that had their eyes on what was happening there.

He was wracking his brains while thinking about what to do next, when he heard the door of the throne hall opening. There was only one person allowed to do that, but she has been missing for the last few days, so he was about to criticize and possibly attack whoever was doing that, but he noticed that it was the person that was allowed to enter anytime. Wu Cuifen.

"Where have you been all this time?"

As Cuifen came approaching, the king was already inquiring her about her disappearance. She was inwardly displeased, by the simple fact of hearing his voice, but she didn\'t show it externally. However, there was a crazy light hidden in the gaze she directed at him.

"I was resolving a particular business."

"Particular business? We are in a very delicate situation and you\'re telling me you were resolving a particular business? Is this the time to be doing shit like that?" The way he aggressively talked, reflected the instability he was feeling inside.

Wu Cuifen didn\'t even bother to answer him. She was so focused on her revenge, that she abandoned her character very quickly and started to ask him some very strange questions.

"Hehehe... Are you perhaps worried about the disappearance of your hidden troops?"

"!!!"

The king stood up and asked: "How do you know about it?"

The king realized she knew something about that, but it was not something she was supposed to know, since that news arrived by the time she had disappeared. Suddenly, he started to think of a possibility.

"Do you have something to do with it?"

But before she could answer that question, a blonde man opened the door to the throne hall once again. Behind him, there were dead bodies lying on the floor. They were the unfortunate guards that tried to stop him.

The king felt some alarm bells ringing inside him, since he wasn\'t even able to hear the battle sounds between him and his guards. But the fact they were all dead, showed that there really was a battle.

"Who are you? Identify yourself!"

"Ahaha! You do not deserve to know who I am, but I will tell you the name of the person responsible for your death. My name is Qiao Duyi, ranked number one in the Eight Lion Guardians from the Lion\'s Pride Golden Palace."

The king was about to make a move, but before he could even properly react to that revelation, a powerful golden blast occurred right where he was.

Bang!
