Chereads / Against the Demons and Gods / Chapter 10 - Beast Core

Chapter 10 - Beast Core

He had married such a beautiful wife yet on his wedding night, he could not touch, caress any part of her body, or even sleep on his own bed. He could only silently hug his knees as he leaned against a wall in the corner of his room…

Danny now had really felt the maliciousness of this world.

The red candlelight reflected against this newly transformed room, making it seem lovely. The two people in red dress entered a long silence, one sat at the edge of the bed and the other huddled pitifully in the corner. The only sound heard during this dragging silence was the vague sound of their breathing.

After a while, Danny finally could not help but say: "You will not….really make me stay here all night?

Emma's long eyelashes fluttered and the graceful curve of her body turned slightly to lie down on the bed. She released the scarlet curtain and it fell, hanging down. Danny could only make out her vague blurry shadow under the dim candlelight. Suddenly, Emma waved her hands and a windy breeze extinguished the two red candles simultaneously….making Danny sit in the dark shadows of the room.

"..." If it wasn't impossible for him to beat this woman, even though she was as cold as her appearance, he still would have jumped her.

"I was just joking earlier. Not only am I not drunk, I did not even drink one sip this entire afternoon…. You can't even take a little joke, you have no sense of humor." Danny resentfully muttered.

"I knew you weren't drunk." Emma replied coldly: "But I really hate men who could defecate and urinate anywhere."

Defecate and urinate… anywhere?

Could it be… when he was trying to get the wine out of the Xtermas Virus?

F*ck!!

Danny's eyes widened as he jumped up from his corner: "You said that I indiscriminately urinate anywhere? Which eye did you see that with! You only heard the sound of me pouring wine! Pouring wine… pouring the wine! As a dignified man of the Radd Clan, I would never do something as uncultured and filthy as that. You are allowed to look down on my Profound power but not insult my noble character and personality!!"

A little white after Danny roared at her, he heard the leisurely sound of Emma's voice: "I was only joking too."

"! # $… " Danny had almost vomited out his blood.

Depressed, Danny went back to his corner and became silent again… This woman really knew how to joke around!!

Usually he would sleep comfortably in his bed but on his wedding night, he had to sleep in a corner… There was no way he could fall asleep! After holding in for a long time, Danny let out his voice again: "So, when are you going back to Joyful Flower Palace? Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow?"

Emma: "!?"

Danny laughed with a light expression and calmly explained: "Although I know very little about the ways of Joyful Flower Palace, I do know that they only accept women and treat men as slave. There are countless beautiful women in Joyful Flower Palace and I have never heard of anyone there getting married, I heard of them using men as slave's for yang cultivation, I also heard of having their own men harem and man favor's. in Joyful Flower Palace women do not see men as their equals so marriage is out of question for disciple's of Joyful Flower Palace, But you married me. Looks like even among the people of Joyful Flower Palace, your talent and gifts are a rarity. You are perhaps a talent that they have only seen once in hundreds of years. Otherwise, why else would they break such a precedent in your favor?"

Emma: "..."

Danny raised his head and looked up at the darkness of his ceiling and continued: "For someone like you, they would do all they can to recruit you into their Joyful Flower Palace in the shortest time possible. There must be countless strong practitioners that study the way of the Profound Ki that an ordinary person would never see in their entire lifetime, and countless treasures as well. Under these circumstances, your Profound Ki power and status would sky rocket. You are probably going to leave soon, am I right?

Emma remained silent for a long time. After a while, she answered in a vague voice: "In a month."

"A month?" Danny's surprised expression became a smile as he lowered his head and whispered: "Thank you."

Emma: "?"

"You must have asked them for this month. I doubt that Joyful Flower Palace would willingly let you delay your recruitment and let you stay with a useless person like me against your wishes. One month is quite a long time and you are their treasured talent. In the future, you may even reach the same level and even be on par with the Mistress of Joyful Flower Palace. Others may laugh at me, mock me, and never put me in their eyes, but someone like you who would improve to unimaginable lengths in the future, was willing to marry me. You tried to protect and maintain the pride of a laughable man like me… Although I know you are doing this to repay my Mother's kindness, I thank you just the same."

"No need." Emma answered unemotionally. But she sneered inside her heart as He was not wrong at all, for even her master told her that talents like her were as rare as can be even in Joyful Flower Palace. Her master even said that once Emma entered Joyful Flower Palace, she was confident that she could breakthrough the Profound Ki Grand Master Realm and even reach the Profound Ki Earth Realm… A level that not even the number one practitioner in Floating Stone City, Danny, could reach.

Reaching the Profound Ki Earth Realm before the age of twenty… To the people of Floating Stone City, that was an unimaginable feat.

"Before I married you, I thought you would be like all those people who hold me in contempt and ignore me, but you are better than I thought you would be. Not only are you beautiful, you are also talented and kind. As a woman, you can be considered to be flawlessly perfect.

Emma: "..."

"Well, since you are so kind, you certainly won't let your husband sleep in the corner on your wedding night, right? My bed is quite large and it definitely would not be crowded if two people slept on it…."

Before Danny even finished his sentence, a threatening and murderous aura blew across the room and he shivered. "If you keep talking rubbish, I'll throw you out!"

Danny crooked his mouth and obediently shut up as his stiff bottom bitterly went back to where he sat before.

"Somebody's here." Emma suddenly exclaimed.

After a while, Danny heard the soft faint sound of footsteps. If he did not deliberately try to hear it, he would never have noticed those footsteps. The owner of those footsteps seemed to have suddenly stopped in front of his courtyard. The careful footsteps stopped right in the middle of the courtyard and went no further… because in the room was the untouchable Emma. After sneaking around the courtyard for what seemed like half a day, the owner of those footsteps left as quietly as they could, the same way they quietly snuck in.

It was night and Yates could not sleep. He looked out his window with a frantic expression on his face from time to time.

The door opened and Yanni's hurried footsteps had come in. Yates narrowed his eyes and asked: "How is it?"

"This…" Yanni carefully looked at Yates expression and spoke with great care: "I just came from Danny's place, Danny seems… to not have been locked out."

"..." Yates hopeful expression dropped off his face.

Yanni's heart thumped and he hastily said: "But you don't have to worry Boss. Emma even views the guys from the governor's mansion and the Yas family with a contemptuous disregard, how could she even like that Danny of a wastrel. Although he had not been driven out, it's probably because… because she pitied him. She probably does not want him to get laughed at…. although he is in the same room as Emma, I doubt they are lying on the same bed. He's probably laying on the ground right this minute… that must be it.

Yates dark uncertain face cast his eyes in the direction of Danny's courtyard. He clenched his fists: "Emma is the woman I want, and no one can meddle in my affairs! I will personally check out what had happened. Absolutely do not let him touch Emma !!"

"Yes!" Yanni quickly answered.

The small dwarf-like Danny who was rolled up in a ball was still awake in the corner of his room in the middle of the night. He opened his eyes and raised his collar to look at the center of his palm. In the darkness, there was a striking faint golden light that came from the Xtermas Virus.

In Earth, with only the power of the Brains, he alone stirred the world's wind and storms, but also incurred the wrath of the entire Earth… however he was finally successful in achieving his goal.

The Xtremas Virus had fused with his body to become a part of him, and he could feel the presence of its usual toxicity.

Today's Sky Poison Pearl only had the most basic of detoxification, refinement, and fusion capability… but once he fused it with the Profound Ki Cultivation it would show heavenly results.

With his Profound Ki Vein disabled he would never be a viewed as an important person in this small little city.

The most intolerable fact was… that he did not even have the ability to consummate his marriage with his own wife!

If he wanted to have strength, the most basic step he should take would be first to repair his destroyed Profound Ki Vein.

Repair his Profound Ki Vein…

Emma was certain that she could repair his Profound Ki Vein and he could use them in ways an ordinary practitioner would use, but she seems to have angle for that making it very hard for him to trust her. He was certain that Emma did not marry him to repay his mothers kindness she seems to have some thing planed for him. But for him, repairing his Profound Ki Vein was not an impossible feat because he was the Mad Chemist! His had always told himself When in the face of a problem, one must remember that there is cause and effect. If there is a problem, there must be a solution. If there are people suffering, there must be healers. In this world, there is no incurable disease and if people say there one, it was only the healer's own lack of ability.

Regarding how to repair his Profound Ki Vein, Danny had been thinking about that to this very day. His Profound Ki Vein had not been an inborn disability, but was damaged by another at birth. After growing up, his Profound Ki Vein has now been thoroughly crippled, making him unable to even use the most conventional of methods to restore it.

In order to destroy his old disabled Profound Ki Vein and re-cultivate another, he needed at least three things…

"Wife, are you asleep yet?" Danny asked.

After a long period of silence, he still did not receive a response.

"Cough cough, wife you aren't really asleep right?" Danny asked again.

"My name is Emma Ross!" Emma replied in a cold soft voice.

"I know your name is Emma Ross." Danny scratched his eyebrows and strangely asked: "Wife, I have something to ask you."

"Call me Emma!" She said in anger.

"Oh, okay!" Danny nodded. With a poker face on, he asked: "Wife, after you go to Joyful Flower Palace, are you able to obtain a beast core of the Sky Profound Ki Realm? Are you able to get a hold of it?"
