25 Clouds and Thunderbolts? II

"…"

"Fuuu~"

It had become obvious to Xia Feng Zi that her Master, Bei Ling, not only knew her Xia Family from somewhere but that it also might have some relation with her family.

She wasn't particularly interested in her master's origins as neither was Xia Feng Zi interested in her Xia Family. However, if her master's family and hers had some kind of history, and if it turns out to be a bad one, it might become a real pain.

'… Whatever, I guess. If it is good all good, if it is bad… then, I think nothing will happen before we are done with our deal; by that time, I will have thought of a way out…

'but I guess, I can't really be sleeping or immersed in my own things anymore, haa-'

"I hope isn't that painful," she replied, at length.

"And if it is, that it is a success or I don't know what I might do… Suuu~"

"… If you go mad, you will forget whatever pain there was," Bei Ling said as a matter of facts; though she knew there was more going through her disciple's mind, she followed their actual line of business.

Bei Ling made a beckoning motion with her right index finger and a transparent jade bottle came out of the black necklace hanging on Xia Feng Zi's neck.

"Hold it.

"As it is the blood of another family, I have to do a formation. Good thing that there are Aurora Borealis Godly Crystals here."

Xia Feng Zi held the transparent jade bottle with her free left hand and could see a small bloody crystal of the size of a drop.

'For her to have her Ancestor's blood, her position couldn't possibly be low up there… how can both families be related? I may be overthinking, again…'

"Fuuu~"

"Can I take it out?" She suddenly asked.
