That perverted man had captured her and brought her here but had not used any form of torture on her or done anything untoward against her, ordering people to take good care of all her meals and drinks instead. Besides being imprisoned in this place where her movement was restricted, she was treated very well.
Ha, it will be naive to think that she had been brought here as a guest.
This pool of water…..
Qing Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly and then spread her palm open. A reddish curled up ball materialized on her hand, seemingly soundly asleep.
Upon seeing that, Qing Yu curled up a corner of her lips as she snorted derisively. Turning her palm over, that red ball immediately fell into the pool. In a moment of shock and panic, a gurgling sound was heard and it swallowed several mouthfuls of water.
“Ugh….. Cough cough cough….. Cough cough…..”
In the span of a few breaths’ time, a red topped head popped out through the surface of the water sputtering and dripping wet, its small tender skinned face twisted up from choking as tears streamed down his face, an frightfully pitiful sight.
However, the culprit continued to stare expressionlessly down at him, without the slightest hint of remorse on her face.
The little thing had initially been about to jump up in thunderous rage but when he saw the expressionless face looking straight at him, he immediately hung his head timidly, and said in a soft voice: “Mist….. Mistress, what are your orders…..”
“So you still realize that I’m your Mistress? !” Qing Yu stiffened up a corner of her lips in a disdainful smirk, her voice scornful.
“Of course I know that! You are my one and only MIstress, my savior and benefactor who pulled me out of untold misery! !” His tone of voice was highly worked up, like he was eager to profess his loyalty to her.
Qing Yu arched up an eyebrow, knowing that the little fella was referring to the time when he was still just a seed and was trapped in the cover of the Heavenly Insights into Medicine, where he came to be freed by a single drop of her blood.
When that thought came to mind, she suddenly smiled and her eyes glinted meaningfully as she said: “Good that you remember that, because it is now your turn to save me from misery and calamity.”
Hearing that, the red coloured little creature transformed from a Earth Fire Devil Vine then blinked his eyes in bewilderment before he asked: “In what way can I be of assistance to my Mistress?”
“Of course you can. At this moment, I can only depend on you.”
Qing Yu curved up her lips and said: “I heard that creatures like you thrive among the lava rocks at the earth’s core which make your bodies impenetrable by sword or spear and are highly resilient against all sorts of attacks…..”
“That is a matter of fact of course! We Earth Fire Devil Vines are the strongest and most powerful species among all plants and humans have even used us to forge as weapons as well!” Upon hearing how he was praised, the little creature could not help getting excited and stoked, his face flushing a rosy red.
