...L.O.S.E 118 - Beautiful Night...
Unlike Shu En whose cultivation had reached the God Realm, Xhin Diao and the woman named Jia Xiang Yi were said to have extremely weak body conditions. Both of them were not cultivators and when exposed to the Demon Curse, the two women were unable to undergo activities like Shu En.
Xhin Diao and Jia Xiang Yi could only lie in bed all day and go through a gloomy day after Shu En explained everything to them. However the two women felt lucky that Shu En and Hong Zi Ran were trying to save both of them.
After chatting Shu En finally found out if Jia Xiang Yi was the wife of Jia Song and had been subjected to abuse for several years since Jia Song controlled Ling Shan.
“So Young Master is Emperor Shu? I had heard the news that the Blue Moon Continent would also be the target of that group of savage beings, but I did not expect that Young Master had killed them all.” Jia Xiang Yi said to Shu En while trying to get up from his sleep.
“Mrs Jia, don't be too formal. You can call me Ener or my name.” Shu En scratched his cheek as he looked at Jia Xiang Yi's face.
“Then you can also call me Aunt as you did to Aunt Hong.” Jia Xiang Yi smiled amiably.
Shu En simply nodded his head before coming out of the room to make some body strengthening potions for Jia Xiang Yi and Xhin Diao. Meanwhile inside the treatment room, Hong Zi Ran chatted with Jia Xiang Yi and Xhin Diao.
“So he is the kid you always talk about, Zi Ran?” ask Xhin Diao.
“True, Diao. Ener is the son of my late senior. Senior is five years older than me. I didn't expect him to have grown into a reliable boy.” Hong Zi Ran smiled remembering his past.
“After experiencing that heartbreaking incident, to be honest I wanted to end my life but what En said was true, I could not abandon the responsibility as a person who has imperial blood. Jia Empire needs me.” Jia Xiang Yi muttered as he recalled Shu En's words some time ago after he came to his senses.
Hong Zi Ran and Xhin Diao looked at each other hearing Jia Xiang Yi's words. What the two felt at this moment was the same, they understood the suffering and burden that Jia Xiang Yi was enduring.
Eventually Hong Zi Ran, Xhin Diao and Jia Xiang Yi became more familiar and open. These three women experienced similar conditions and situations in the past, leaving the three of them open to each other and supportive.
“I'll prepare dinner. I stay a while.” Hong Zi Ran said goodbye to go to the palace kitchen.
“Zi Ran, please bring me the Ice Apple you brought this morning. My body feels healthier after eating it,” Xhin Diao said.
“Alright, Diao. In the kitchen a lot of fruits that En.er brought, I will bring other fruits as well.” Hong Zi Ran smiled then looked at Jia Xiang Yi and said, “Do you not want anything, Xiang Yi?”
“I... It seems that I don't really want anything,” Jia Xiang Yi said as she shook her head.
Then Hong Zi Ran went to the kitchen and before long Shu En came to bring warm drinks for Xhin Diao and Jia Xiang Yi.
“Aunt Xhin, Aunt Jia, are you two interested in practicing mastering Demon Energy?” Shu En opened the conversation and tried to offer.
Jia Xiang Yi choked at Shu En's words and was shocked.
“Enter, I'd rather die than be a Devil like them!” jia Xiang Yi said with a stern look.
Shu En smiled and shook his head.
“Pardon my words, Aunt Jia. I mean..” Then Shu En explained to Jia Xiang Yi and Xhin Diao who were intending to teach the two women to master Demon Energy and start cultivating under his direction.
For the sake of suppressing the rapid spread of the Demon Curse, it was the most effective way for the two especially if they had mastered the Demon Energy then Jia Xiang Yi and Xhin Diao could control the spread of the Demon Curse.
While saying that, Shu En actually felt Hong Zi Ran's presence behind the door of the room, but he was curious as to why Hong Zi Ran did not enter and instead moved away from the treatment room.
The expressions of Xhin Diao and Jia Xiang Yi appeared paled. Both of them realized whatever they were trying to do in the end they would still become an Immortal Race.
“I think it's better we have to master Devil Energy, Xiang Yi.” Xhin Diao said before adding, “Then in the end whatever we do is in vain..”.
“In the end we will still be Devils... Mindless and sucking human blood.”.
Xhin Diao looked desperate. Jia Xiang Yi was also like that. Seeing these two women, Shu En wanted to help them and help but he couldn't possibly tell Xhin Diao and Jia Xiang Yi about the advantages of the Demon God Body.
“Tomorrow, I'll be back here.” Shu En said goodbye to feeling guilty to Xhin Diao and Jia Xiang Yi had informed the conditions of the Devil Curse spreading on their bodies.
After Shu En's departure, Jia Xiang Yi subconsciously shed her tears and felt so desperate. The woman cried and made Xhin Diao who was next to her cry.
Hong Zi Ran who was about to enter the treatment room also abandoned his intentions because he heard the two friends crying in a desperate condition.
‘Is there nothing I can do for both of them?’ hong Zi Ran said in his heart.
That night after having dinner with Jia Xiang Yi and Xhin Diao, Hong Zi Ran ventured to meet Shu En who was on the top floor of the palace.
In a room that had dragon ornaments and was made of gold, Hong Zi Ran opened the room that Shu En used. There was no Shu En and there were only the clothes Shu En had on the bed.
‘Where is En?’ hong Zi Ran said inwardly and chose to tidy up Shu En's clothes then stood near the window staring at the moon as seen from Shu En's room.
“I shouldn't have said that to Aunt Xhin and Aunt Jia... I'm really a bad and useless guy.”.
While enjoying the view from Shu En's room window, hong Zi Ran suddenly heard Shu En's voice coming from the room inside the room and before long the door of the room opened and revealed the figure of a handsome young man who had just cleaned his body.
“Aunt Hong? Why is Aunt in my room?”
When Hong Zi Ran was about to say something, his voice was swallowed and mute as his eyes fell on Shu En's figure revealing his body shape. The young man only covered his lower body using a white cloth.
“Why are you here, Enhancer?!” Hong Zi Ran panicked and immediately hid his face that blushed in embarrassment.
Shu En frowned in surprise.
“This is my room, Aunt I just finished taking a shower and I should have been surprised to see Aunt in my room.” Shu En looked at Hong Zi Ran meaningfully and walked up to take his clothes.
Then Shu En put on his clothes and sat on the bed.
“Auntie, I know what you want to talk about. Sit.” Shu En asked Hong Zi Ran to sit next to him.
Hong Zi Ran followed Shu En and sat down beside the young man. The two were silent and no one started the conversation until Shu En finally ventured to speak to Hong Zi Ran.
