Lust, like Vengeance, Demands Red 170 You're mine.

Bai Hui Nodded with a straw cigarette in his lips. His wife Yu Yan, sipped her tea elegantly and smiled at Rain. "Well, what did you expect? She's a carnivorous beast, you're a talented barbarian in the third level, why would she let you go?"

Rain's eye turned to disbelief. "I understand that. I used that to get what I wanted from her, but the deal was that I should be following her side by side! Also, everything that she plans to do with the barbarian lands must pass by me first!"

Bai Hui just smirked.

Yu Yan shook her head and continued "She conquered the land, she doesn't have urgent needs from there right now. The small issues are being solved by the sect, and the subordinates of Zhi Rui, she doesn't have to do anything for now. And about following her steps? she probably doesn't even remember that."

Rain clenched her teeth. For days now she has been chewing on that subject. At first, she just waited for Zhi Rui to come and get her until frustration overtook her chest. Then Zhi Rui finally came. But as if she had forgotten Rain's existence, went away without a word.

Her neck and cheeks were red with anger. "If she doesn't want to uphold her part of the deal then I don't have a reason to keep mine!" She exclaimed valiantly.

Bai Hu nodded firmly with a proud smile.

Yu Yan slapped his arm softly and looked at Rain with a serious expression.

"Think well before doing that, Zhi Rui isn't the reasonable kind, every one of us here is bound to her in some way and don't care for what you do. But you have to prepare for her."

With that Rain's eyes turned red she was already plotting how to get out of there and reach her family and tear the deal was off.

Suddenly a soft step echoed. Above the table, they were seated around a beautiful, elegant woman appeared.

Wearing a spotless white robe Zhun Xuying sighed and looked at the couple with an annoyed frown."Would you please stop stirring her up?"

For the first time, Bai Hui spoke. "I'm just following my wife's whim. She threatened me with a sex strike." A thin Icicle of one meter sprouted from the ground right in front of him, smeared with red blood.

The ones around, together with Bai hui looked down, it had sprouted from the ground, priced through his feet and reached the height it was now. Tn the silent, his neck veins bulged like worms.

Yu Yan looked at Zhun Xuying with a smile. "Sorry, won't do it again~"

Zhun Xuyin sighed, "What if I didn't come and she followed through with her plan?"

Yu Yan smiled again, this time with some malice. "Then, we would have another chance to have that place to ourselves."

She hadn't hidden anything. so Zhun XUying simply shook her head annoyed "Ugh, I-"

"WOMAN, ARE YOU CRAZY!?" A fireball exploded and the couple went away fighting.

Rain looked at Zhun Xuying confused. But before she got an answer, s giggle came from above.

Looking at Hilda lazily lying on the thick tree branch, Zhun Xuying narrowed her eyes.

"Amusing much? You could've stopped them." Zhun XUying said. Berating her for letting the husband and wife manipulate the gullible barbarian girl.

"I owe no duty to her," Hilda said sternly.

Zhun Xuying squinted her eyes "You wouldn't be doing it for her, but to Zhi Rui."

They stared at each other, the tension rose. Even Rain who was exclaiming in rage until now grew wary.

"Maybe I should ask Zhi Rui for an hour alone with her Kitty..." Zhun Xuying said with a smirk.

Hilda laughed and suddenly appeared right in front of Zhun Xuying touching breasts. "I can give you that right now."

A sudden tremor broke the tension. On the entrance of the camp, Izaya stood on the shoulder of Zhi Rui's ape, followed by His daughter on the serpent's head.

Izaya smiled. "Please, don't fight."

"Since the first, the reach the fourth spoke..." Without finishing her sentence Hilda turned to walk away.

With a smirk, Zhun Xuying waved her hand a clear smack resounded. And Hilda's swaying beautiful butt trembled.

ZHun XUying had sent a wind slap.

In a second, Hilda reappeared in front of her, but the dagger stopped one finger away from Zhun Xuyin'gs neck. Izaya was holding her arm, with a helpless expression.

Hilda looked at Zhun Xuying's smile, snorted and disappeared.

Ignoring Izaya. Zhun Xuying approached Rain and threw a small storage pouch.

"Inside, there's the materials and blueprints for the production of low-grade glass weapons, since the war is settled there's no reason for the sect do not agree with Zhi Rui's deal. With that, you can trade and grow in a power similar to the empire with time. Take someone with you, and deliver it in the hands of your people."

"Zhi Rui also spoke about the famine issue.." Rain said.

"It's all inside. Also, she's training right now, and can't have you following her around."

Zhun Xuying sighed "Don't be so gullible. That couple had eyes on the barbarian lands. If you fall for their words you'll end up handing your people over to them."

Stunned, Rain held the storage pouch tightly.

Zhun Xuying received the report from a slave and looked upwards at the sky.

'It still a few months away. And more than half of the slaves reached the third level... Now, us, the ones right under Zhi Rui, must focus on getting strong ourselves. In these few months left, we must all reach the fourth level.'

She took the blueprints for a different forge and sighed. She also had to provide them with weapons herself.

Fifteen days later, after hunting every day. Ren Zu felt a resonance of energy from the lake. tired, and dirt she freshened up anxiously and waited for Zhi Rui.

Suddenly the lake froze. cracks formed on the surface, as Zhi Rui puled herself out. Her skin was blue with ice all around her body and hair.

Standing on her own two feet, she released her inner energy and took all the ice away, her white skin and bright blonde hair were pristine under the sun's light.

Ren Zu saw the beautiful naked body of Zhi Rui. Her heart palpitated.

Anxiously she spoke. "M-Miss I-I discovered a goal for me. A selfish one."

Zhi Rui still relishing on the sun's heat showed no reaction.

Anxiety crept on Ren Zu's chest and she bit her lips, her eyes turned red.
"I-I want to be with you, I want to keep serving, I want to see you as you become a goddess, I want to struggle by your side, I want you to praise me, I-If I'm going to suffer anywhere. Then I want to suffer under you.."

Her cheeks flushed red and she stuttered.
"I-I want to be used l-like Miss Zhun Xuyin, and Hilda .. I-I heard stories from Miss Izumy. I-I promise to think more and be more aware from now on. So p-please." Tears were streaming down her cheeks. "D-Don't discard me. Use me, abuse me for eternity, but please don't throw me away."

She sniffled and pleaded.

'Fear of being discarded. This is where the root of her madness lay...' Zhi Rui thought.

She smiled sympathetically.

"Then I'll do just that. I won't let you die, I'll keep you by my side. You'll be my hound, my maid, my sex slave. I'll use you in whatever way my mood desires..... For eternity."

She embraced the woman tightly and as the soft words resounded Ren Zu broke tears.

'Now, that I know where your button is, it doesn't matter if you become stronger than me and the slave mark doesn't function. As long as you don't heal from your abandonment issues, you'll be my slave forever.' Zhi Rui thought and kissed her cheek.

She slowly caressed her hair, as if soothing a child. A rare gentle smile surfaced on her face and she looked into the sobbing woman's eyes.

"From now on, you're truly mine."
