13 Vampire's Rage
Far away,
[Doesn't his physical features change once he's in "Vampirification"]
"Half his hair turns white and his eyes have a red hue" the seven year old answered nonchalantly.
[I see so he's never been fully enraged before, I think I understand his transformation now, of course as a genius I would know this.]
"I know that already, the only way he would probably fully transform is if a loved one died in front of him such as me" the seven year old replied confidently.
[I-I knew that it's just I wanted to refresh your memory. U-uh your brother if his transformation is complete how strong do you think he would be?]
"If what I saw is half his strength then perhaps he can challenge anyone below the Incarnation realm, once he's at Nascent realm" the seven year old answered carefully.

The last pirate plunged his sword through Rury's lower abdomen and sent Qi through the sword destroying the surrounding organs.
The Pirate pulled his sword and kicked her. Rury had no more strength, she fell to the ground with shallow breaths.
Rury's vision was beginning to blur, as she she fell to the ground she stared at Ning Fan.
"Perhaps this is fate for me to die." Rury vision became more blurry as she shed tears of blood while trying to smile.
Ning Fan saw Rury's eyes slowly losing their light. Ning Fan felt consumed by rage. The pirate quickly turned and faced Ning Fan staring straight in his eyes. As soon Ning Fan's eyes met the pirates, Ning Fan's mind collapsed and was filled with killing intent.
Ning Fan's eyes turned as red as a bloody moon. His hair became completely white. His Qi fluctuations were as calm as the tranquil sea, but was filled with killing intent.
Ning Fan paced himself towards the pirate while sheathing his sword.
The pirate felt fear in the depths of his heart. The pirate tried to escape, but couldn't, his body turned as stiff as a statue. The pirate felt fear and despair consume him every step Ning Fan took.
PSSSHHK!
As soon as Ning Fan reached him he plunged his hand through his chest. Ning Fan slowly squeezed his heart giving him the most agonizing death while staring at him straight in his eyes.
The pirate was internally screaming, the pirate couldn't let out a single scream, couldn't move, or express his pain. The pirate felt undescribable pain and discomfort, he questioned if he was still alive or if he was in the purgatory. The pirate died from shock before his heart was crushed.
SPLAT!
Ning Fan crushed his heart and the pirate was still ass soon as Ning Fan removed his gaze the pirate fell to the ground.
Before Ning Fan's anger could quell a woman with a cloak walked in.
"Your still alive, you two seem to never die, enhanced Pressure that should've instantly killed you, five Ming realm pirates. The only one dying seems to be trash. I should tell you the name of your killer, it's Rong Mei the Super Granddaughter of the Owner of the Black Market." Rong Mei glared maliciously.
Rong Mei, didn't pay attention to Ning Fan's change and considered it to be a form of intimidation.
Yu Lin stood quiet and didn't make a noise, she was afraid, Ning Fan lost his sanity and would attack her.
Ning Fan heard the perpetrator that tried to kill him and the one who brought Rury to death's door.
"HAHAHA... Of course it's Rong! DIE!" Ning Fan maniacally laughed as he lost all sense of rationality.
Ning Fan's consciousness was fading. He felt as if though he was drowning in a Bloody Sea. Slowly forgetting who he is, his purpose, everything but one thing, he wanted to kill the person in front of him.
Ning Fan stretched his hand facing Rong Mei and slowly closed his hand. It appeared that Ning Fan was crushing an insect.
Rong Mei felt something was wrong and moved as quickly as possible. She suspected he might still have a treasure he stashed away for an emergency.
Before Rong Mei could completely leave that spot she felt an invisible hand tightly clutch her left arm being. Rong Mei felt the pressure in her left arm. Rong Mei's noticed that it wasn't a treasure but Ning Fan himself and began regretting her actions.
Rong Mei glanced at Rury's dying body and had an idea, "W-wait b-be reasonable. H-how about I become your woman, my body is pure and has never touched a man and I'll offer you all the treasure's in my storage ring."
Ning Fan stopped his hand from mid-way. Ning Fan released his grip on her and slowly walked towards her.
"Do you have a treasure to save Rury" Ning Fan pointed at Rury.
Ning Fan was still enraged, but when he heard treasure's, he instinctively thought the daughter of the Black Market owner must have some miraculous items. Although Ning Fan's consciousness was drowning, he managed to pull himself up as soon as he felt their was a chance to save Rury.
Rong Mei stared at Rury's dying body and sighed, she knew right now she has no right to refuse.
Ning Fan doesn't know anything about the medicinal treasure's Rong Mei has or which could save Rury, so he could only compromise. If he wastes too much time Rury could die, even if he had a way it's useless if she's dead.
"Her Dan Tien is damaged, I don't have anything that can heal it, but I have a Medicinal pill that could save her, it will circulate throughout her body even if she falls unconscious soon after. Once she recovers she would be no different than a peseant" Rong Mei handed the pill to Ning Fan, hoping Rury would not die.
Rong Mei knew if Rury died, she would die along with her.
Ning Fan took the pill and quickly threw it in his mouth. Ning Fan lifted Rury's head upward as he kissed her. Ning Fan pushed the pill into her, mouth to mouth, since she was too weak right now.
Rury swallowed the pill. She felt a warm current flowing throughout her body. Rury passed out soon after.
Ning Fan was still worried, he checked her pulse.
As soon as he was certain he called Yu Lin, "Take care of her."
"I'm a man of my word" Ning Fan said before he bit her neck with his sharp fangs.
Rong Mei panicked, she started crying and shouting. Rong Mei knew she had no chance to escape much less win in a fight.
She kept asking for forgiveness, "I'm sorry I was wrong please let me live, I'll be you slave and do anything, please don't kill me."
A few seconds later Ning Fan pulled away, "You said you'll be my slave right, this is a contract that binds your soul, and forces you to be my slave, from now on your job is to protect Rury"
Rong Mei wiped all her tears away, "You can count on me!"
Rong Mei felt relieved and thankful. To her death was the worst outcome. To be alive for her is a blessing. She wouldn't blame Ning Fan for killing her. Rong Mei held no grudge either, she knew she started this feud and has no right to complain.
Ning Fan's body slowly turned to normal. His hair was raven-colored returned and his eyes weren't red anymore.
Ning Fan felt exhausted as he fell into Rong Mei's arm's, "Keep us safe until I wake up"
Ning Fan passed out, he exhausted his soul, mind, and body from using his power. What Ning Fan needed most right now was rest.
Rong Mei didn't rebel, she didn't know what Ning Fan did and she didn't want to learn first hand. Rong Mei took out a Medicinal pill and a Qi rejuvenating pellet. The Qi rejuvenating pellet allows one to recover their Qi faster, even if their unconscious.
Rong Mei threw them in her mouth as she blushed. She pressed her prestine lips against his as she slightly opened his mouth.
Ning Fan swallowed the pills instinctively. Ning Fan's body was quickly recovering, but his soul needed time to recover. Ning Fan overused his soul by using powers beyond his own.
"T-that was my first. Even if I said I'd be yours you should still be grateful, it's not everyday you get a beautiful woman's first" Rong Mei whispered.
Rong Mei threw two rings towards Yu Lin, "These rings have a built in Array Formation they camouflage the wearer. The array uses the constellations to camouflage the wearer's presence, Qi fluctuations, etc. Only downside is it needs an open sky to function, without an open sky the array won't activate."
Yu Lin understood and placed the ring on Rury's hand and her own. Yu Lin didn't doubt her since she trusted Ning Fan's words and Yu Lin was sure Rong Mei wouldn't do anything that would risk her life.
"After an hour I will fly us out of here wear these on top of the building, we'll sit back to back" Rong Mei placed a ring on Ning Fan's ring finger and her's.
Rong Mei flew Rury first to the top of the building, following Ning Fan, then Yu Lin. Since Rong Mei is in the Foundation realm, she can easily fly everyone, but she decided to be careful.
Since their was no ceiling anymore all four of them remained unnoticed with the help of the rings.
Rong Mei and Yu Lin heard a huge explosion. Not long after all of the pirates left. Rong Mei and Yu Lin decided to stay the whole day until one of them recovers.

One day later,
Rury woke up and noticed she was on the bed of the Patriarch of the Phoenix faction with Ning Fan beside her, as well as another beauty clinging onto Ning Fan's left arm.
After a few seconds Rury recalled all that transpired. Before she passed out she remembered Ning Fan saved her life. Rury was thankful that her journey hadn't ended their.
Rury felt something was wrong after gazing at Ning Fan lovingly. Rury tried circulating her Qi but realized she couldn't. Rury started panicking, after thinking about her problem for a while she realized that her Dan Tien was damaged and she's crippled.
Rury felt as if a black hole was swallowing her heart.
"If I can't cultivate then, I won't be able to go with Ning Fan. He may even fall in love with someone else and forget me." Rury thought.
Rury grasped his right arm tightly while wishing this was all a dream. Rury glanced at the beauty next to her frequently as she despaired.
"Perhaps she will be his future wife and I'll be an ex that was thrown away." Rury negatively thought.

Inside the Yu Royal Palace,
Seima smashed a round table that adorned elegant decorations.
"This is all my fault if I wasn't consumed with anger and realised the situation this would have never happened!" Seima shouted.
The Pirate Captain was sleeping on the bed in the Kings chamber. Besides the Captain there were four others in the room.
"It's not your fault if I was stronger this would have never happened!" Vara blamed herself.
"No one's at fault for what transpired. He should wake up in three more days. He overexerted himself too much." a scholarly middle-aged man said.
"Sui Li is right, we should do what we can and that's protect Captain." A young pretty boy with golden hair agreed.
"Tai Mu I was already planning on protecting Captain with my life. I didn't need that reminder" Seima remarked.
Everyone smiled and the tense aura around them was gone. They assigned pirates to guard every entrance of the Palace. The four made sure at least one of them with the Captain at all times.

At the Phoenix faction's Palace's kitchen in Area seventy-two,
"I'm sure Rury will be hungry when she wakes up, I hope she won't feel too bitter about losing her cultivation." Yu Lin sighed.
Yu Lin enjoyed having freedom and loved cultivation. It was hard for her to imagine what it would feel like to lose her right to cultivate.
Yu Lin carried her homemade meal to the Patriarch's chamber. Yu Lin knew Rury should be awake by now. Rong Mei informed Yu Lin around the time Rury should regain consciousness.
Yu Lin slowly walked to the Patriarch's chamber unsure of how to comfort her.
