Chapter 38 - A Tiger's Pursuit (2)

Shi Rong stood elegantly across the hallway away from Elder Shin's chambers.

She designed her medications to immediately turn poisonous against those who wanted to use her for their own benefit, should the medication react it would immediately bubble signaling a toxic form. Of course those who are far to greedy would never notice this and simply think its the medicine.

She smirked as she walked across the hall away from his quiet doors.

"Elder Shin's intentions are pure after all." She giggled as she walked. Should there have been screaming from pure agony it would have signaled to her his true reasons.

Truth be told he could have just drunk the whole bottle and be down with it but this method was a small matter of torture towards his words in the meeting. She wanted him to suffer from the fear of over drinking the medicion and also teach him a lesson in listening to her every command.

Upon exiting the building she immediately saw Xiandi waiting by the doors. He leaned against the building as his long silver hair fluttered in the wind with his eyes closed.

He sensed a familiar presence and immediately opened his eyes revealing a red and yellow pair.

He looked at her with an expressionless gaze. "Little girl I have a request which can benefit us both."

Shi Rong lifted her brow slightly signaling him to continue.

"I have sensed another Divine Beast moving across this mainland about a three days journey from here, based off the familiar feeling I would guess it's the cunning hare. With her attitude she would reside within the area for a few days before she leaves once more. But be warned she is highly perceptive and very trickly."

Shi Rong was greatly interested indeed but lacked a sense of determination from his words. "How would that benefit me?"

Xiandi folded his arms across his chest. "It would benefit you the most due to your goal in obtaining power, she can be another card in your possibly ever growing collection if you can fool her correctly into a contract."

"And your benefit?"

Xiandi raised his face toward the sky with a longing expression. "Consider her my other half, we are connected in a sense so having her agree would not become an issue. As for identifying her it would be pretty simple once you see her for we are quite the same."

Shi Rong stared at Xiandi for a second.

"Xiandi meet with Ling Yiyao and bring him to the gate we shall leave immediately upon your arrival."

Xiandi bowed wholeheartedly as his eyes wavered with a sense of relief. "As you wish…...Master"
