Jianghu [2]

Next day Long Lei was completely refreshed and decided to visit Bai Yu. She wanted to know more about this place so he is the best person to ask. In this house other than the two of them, there was no one else. Bai Yu liked to live in seclusion.

"Hey! Pretty uncle, are you busy?"

Bai Yu shook his head and asked her to take the seat. "What is it, little ancestor?"

Long Lei pouted again to hear this nickname but still didn't throw a tantrum but choose to ignore it.

"I want to know about the history of this place. Don't ask me any silly question I don't know anything because I had lost my memories so I am as good as a newborn child."

Bai yu raised his eyes at her words. "What do you want to know?"

"Everything you can imagine and tell me."

So Bai Yu did just that he told her the continent they were right now is known as Longduan. This land has a rule that strong are respected hence there are various powerful sects. The royal family rule is still strong and there are overall three kingdoms but one is like a master and other two kingdoms are the subordinates.

The powerful royal family is of Great Qin and it has two subordinating kingdoms and they are Da Xia and Da Zhou.

"The place we met was in Great Qin and now we are in between Da Xia and Da Zhou."

Long Lei heard him and guessed that the body of the person she is residing in is related to the Prime Minister of Great Qin, the powerful kingdom.

Now she has to be more careful.

Bai Yu saw her worrying about this matter and came near her on impulse. "Don't worry no one can hurt you now. You are safe here. This is my Bai Yu's territory."

Long Lei came out of her stupor and gave a deep look to the handsome middle-aged man. She knew he was in his hundreds or may be in thousands but because of his cultivation, he still looks young.

She knew that he was just not only the owner of this jianghu but has some other identity.

"I am fine. Who is scared of them? Not me. Definitely not me."

Bai Yu chuckled at her antics.

"Can you teach me martial arts? I really want to learn." Long Lei asked him.

"Of course, it is necessary to survive in this world. I know that you have space attribute although there are not many people who have space manuals I am different from them. I will arrange it for you till then you should try strengthening your fighting progress. I suggest that you should join the arena here."

Bai Yu gave her permission to join the arena and also started teaching her various techniques to her that was helpful to her.

In this way, she spent her days in jianghu learning fighting and space law in front of Bai Yu. After all this, she used to sneak inside her space to learn beast taming and alchemy. She also gave time to soul cultivation which has really improved her fighting progress. The Yin Yang lake was the source of spirit pool in the cave which made her soul quite powerful.

She had formed her core after coming to jianghu within two weeks this shocked Bai Yu and his subordinate to their core. Technically it was not the truth she told them because she had developed her golden core by reaching High martial core stage within two hours on that day but they all thought that it was because of her strong talent in cultivation.

After that, she was disturbed as her progressing speed was too fast because of the cheat called space ring. Although Bai Yu knew about her attribute he asked her not to reveal this in front of anyone because of the rarity of space attribute.

In these two years, she has turned into a beautiful lady who is just like a calamitous beauty. Her peach blossom eyes and her thick hair was the major feature which has enhanced her beauty further. Long Lei started trusting Bai Yu more like her elder and told him about that she had indeed received the inheritance and would help him in whatever he wanted to do by using it.

As she was living with him she knew that she could not hide her secrets from him completely so she disclosed some of the things which were not harmful to either of them like pretending to lose her memory.

It was not entirely a lie as Long Lei really didn't have any idea about her former life as Senior Xuan told her that she entered inside this body when the host was long dead for a while so her memories were not present in the consciousness of the body.

So she had informed Bai Yu about her alchemy talent and then Bai Yu decided to check about her other attributes by using a crystal ball. At that time Long Lei didn't know about the function of a crystal ball so she followed Bai Yu to check her attributes as the bowl was somewhat similar to the lock inside the space ring which she had used to open the mansion. So she thought that again she will receive some treasure.

When they both checked her attribute Bai Yu was astonished to see all kind of dazzling colors emerging from the ball and Long Lei was disappointed that she had not received anything from this rusting ball.

"You are elemental." Bai Yu said like praying about a deity.

"What are you talking about handsome? Isn't it just a rusting ball which is not giving me any treasure and here I thought I would get something but this ball is nothing but a crass."

Bai Yu was bewildered to see her disappointed look. What is she disappointed about? She is so talented that the likes of her are born in ten thousand years and all she is showing is this sad look like someone has scammed her.

"Do you even know what is elemental? It is a treasure which is dreamed by every cultivator. If you have this attribute then no one can stop you in this world to reach the top. You are blessed, little girl." Bai Yu lectured.

"Is this not a lock of some treasure? Why are you behaving like you had received an amnesty?"

"Girl this is not a lock but a ball determine about your spiritual roots. I think you had lost your brain during that attack. You are an elemental which means you can practice anything except soul and space law. Oh, right you had space law too." Bai Yu informed her but then a thought came to him about the cave inheritance.

"Don't tell me that you can cultivate soul art too." Bai Yu asked horrified.

Long Lei had a sheepish look on her face which even more horrified Bai Yu. "You can. Heavens! Where did you come from? You are a monster."

Bai Yu was crazy and hope bloomed in his heart. If it is true then Xin'er can be revived back.

After their little escapade, Bai Yu told her that she should only use wood and fire attribute in front of people so as to protect her. He gave her a spirit illusion bracelet that would not allow others to see her real cultivation nor her attributes.

Since then Long Lei created havoc inside and outside of Jianghu. Her fight was awesome and her pills and concoctions were even more mind-blowing. Long Lei was known as the Devil King who can both give them life and take it back in an instant.
