Zhi Rui looked to the filled pond she turned to the people around her
"I'll start." She announced
Zhi Rui walked to the pond, with a step after the other inside, she felt the
warm blood around her skin. contrary to her own beliefs it did not feel bad.
She looked as Izaya walked behind Gray while Shizu went behind Julius.
they put daggers to their throats, Julius had a malicious grin, and gray already seemed like a lifeless corpse. Zhi Rui closed her eyes and spread her arms, took a slow breath and nodded.
At the same time, they cut their throats and the hot blood gushed on Zhi Rui.
She whispered. "Innocence, death, life, and corruption are birthed from chaos. together it results in mankind, therefore mankind is chaos."
As she finished the enchantment, she could feel the blood on her feet begin to boil
The air around her changed, she could feel the life leaving Julius and Gray.
She opened her eyes and looked at them as the life vanished from their eyes she could see the remnant of their soul; the spirit. The blood under Zhi Rui started to evaporate.
She reached for her chest made grabbing motion and stretched it forward, her core materialized in front of her and the spirit inside Gray and Julius went toward it as if entranced. As they enveloped the core, she stopped the process and felt the area around tremble. 'The people are riled up and high on the drug. Zhi Rui felt her core energy start to condense and from pink it was becoming dark red.
She smiled.'it's time'
"Demon hu, the incompetent young brother, who was locked away in a beast hide in a pathetic attempt to bring down the object of his jealousy; His brother."
(Wha-What!? How did you know!?")
Demon Hu spoke suddenly, he was anxiously waiting for the chance to possess her, so he tried to ignore it
(Child this is your only lifeline, do not think about useless things and keep on!)
Zhi Rui sneered. "Because you're an incompetent imbecile you must've believed every word the voice inside that parchment spoke, you believed every single lie and that sweet hope of actually becoming something other than pathetic made you fall for it like a duck and you been locked away."
(SHUT UP! SHUT UP! I SURPASSED THESE SIX MISERABLE LEVELS THAT YOU PEOPLE SO ADMIRE! I WAS A VENERABLE!.)
Zhi Rui continued to provoke, with blood running down her wicked smile.
"But at your time and at that place. A venerable was merely the entry level for any sect, your brother two days older than you, was a Divine, a whole realm above yours. and you claim you were something? As pathetic as before I see."
(YOU SLUT, WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE I'll TAKE OVER YOUR BODY AND AARRGHH-)
Zhi Rui Used her overwhelming core energy to pressure demon Hu inside her core.
Zhi Rui continued, "Your other mistake was to not understand the spell.
you told me it needed blood and people of high talent as sacrifices but you forgot one thing about the spell. it demands the blood of the Innocent, and the corrupt. but it also demands life and death."
Zhi Rui concentrated part of her energy on her nail and tore her veins of the neck and pulses apart.
(ARE YOU CRAZY!? DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GET ME WITH THIS METHOD? YOU JUST FINISH TO BREAK YOUR CORE!?-)
As the blood ran down her body, she closed her eyes and saw her energy reaching the deepest shade of red. She opened her eyes
"That's my point. the spell demands death and rebirth."
(CRAZY WOMAN YOU WILL NOT GET TO ME!)
Slowly the blood left her body, her vision blurred and she felt numb.
she bit her lips.
"Either I succeed or I die." With a thought, she detonated her own core
its pieces spread around and the dark spirit of demon Hu appeared in mid-air he was unprotected and surrounded by dark red condensed energy.
(NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!)
Zhi Rui's eyes grew red and she Yelled "AHHHHHHH!!"
With the last amount of force, she gobbled the demon Hu's spirit.
she couldn't see or feel her flesh anymore.
but due to the spell, she could feel the ethereal spirit energy.
She commanded the broken spirit of old Zhi Rui inside of her to outside to use as the base of the assimilation.
The people saw the pale and bloodied Zhi Rui standing with no sign of life. She looked like a corpse. But the blood on the pond kept evaporating forming a red gas, it mixed with the pieces of the broken core and the four spirits. it slowly condensed and took the form of a shiny small crimson ball. it slowly entered her chest.
They saw her wounds heal and her skin regained a healthy color, and except for her dress, every red spot from her body evaporated into that red gas.
Zhi Rui opened her eyes. Shizu, Izaya, Hilda and Zhun Xuying jumped forward.
Zhi Rui looked at the people around and smiled, completely ignoring them she looked inside herself
Her core from before was white, but now, it's is dark red in its the entirety
the energy inside beside denser it's abundant like a sea.
And her flesh and bones became absurdly tougher.
'I must've at least reached rank three.' Zhi Rui thought
But with excitement boiling Zhi Rui decided to examine herself after she celebrated.
She opened her eyes and looked at everyone else.
Zhi Rui smiled, amidst the bodies and the lingering smell of blood she started to laugh, she held her belly and laughed hysterically.
Hilda, through the mark of the slaves, could fell the joy Zhi Rui was feeling.
and her own inner energy turned denser and she herself felt like laughing, she chuckled. which infect the other's as everybody started to laugh.
Shizu who was still an outsider looked at the scene and a chill ran down her spine.
Zhi Rui looked at them again she cleaned the tears of laughter from her eyes she turned to the tunnel where the carriage was and beckoned with her hand.
Azula bowed from the carriage and rushed forward to join them.
Zhi Rui smiled.
"As they are my slaves I can feel their happiness and satisfaction, so I'm guessing they managed to loot, a lot."
Izaya saw as the smile disappeared from Zhi Rui and the air around her changed as she continued.
"And that will become the Foundation of our power. from today on, we're not merely a small power inside a small empire. My plan is to be the powerhouse of this side of the continent, I'll take this whole domain as my grounds, that includes the barbarian lands beyond the forest, the forest itself and the light sect."
Zhi Rui looked at their eyes
"You might not believe it, but you will be right under me as we grow. And when I reach sovereignty. you will be there with me enjoying every pleasure this world can possibly offer."
Zhi Rui smiled again. "After all, in some ways, you are all bound to me."
"In what way am I bound to you?" Zhun Xuying spoke.
Zhi Rui turned to her. Seeing the malicious smile on Zhun Xuying.
Zhi Rui scoffed and walked in front of herand grasped her into a deep forced wet kiss. after some minutes Zhi Rui pushed the woman away,
Zhi Rui grabbed the hands of the blood faced Zhun Xuying and roughly carried her to the carriage. before entering, Zhi Rui looked at Izaya's topless muscular slightly hairy chest.
"You come too" she stared at his eyes "to lose some nerves"
She turned to Zhun Xuying and gently asked: "Is that fine with you?"
Zhun Xuying looked at her in the eyes, feeling strange for having someone ask for her concern for the first time.
"No, I think it'll be fun," she answered
Zhi Rui smiled, then she coldly turned a stern look to Hilda
"You'll come and watch but you can not participate or touch yourself"
Hilda feline eyes went round.
Zhi Rui smiled, her innards was itching to see this woman be lost in pleasure and yet can do nothing about it.
Zhun Xuying entered first, Zhi Rui looked at Izaya who was still hesitating.
she smirked "It's fine if you don't want to, I won't force. but when your daughter grows a little, I'll tell her about the time you failed to satisfy two women."
Izaya looked at her, he snarled and rushed with his beast blood pumping.
Izaya grabbed Zhi Rui a threw her inside the cushioned carriage. and followed right after.
Hilda sighed, she signaled for Azula and Shizu to be on the driver's seat.
and delivered herself to the demons inside the carriage.
As the carriage went forward Hilda stayed on the corner of the carriage watching as wild roars and loud unrestrained moans started nonstop the noise of flesh hitting flesh the smell that reached her nose. and even more, she could feel Zhi Rui's passion through the slave's brand
She slowly tried to reach the wetness between her legs but a green light suddenly aimed at her.
She saw a sweaty Zhi Rui grinning at her.
Hilda took her hand back and sighed 'I wouldn't suffer like this at Prince Robert's side.'
