Chapter 45 - Under the Blanket?

Shen Ming glared at her with anger, "Why would patriarch give this position to you?"

Shen Xiu released her legend rank aura, Shen Ming and the other two felt the suffocating pressure. They had a look of disbelief on their face, "It is because I have reached the legend rank. Brother thought if I am sitting at this position then, dealing with snow wind family would become easier."

Shen Ming looked at her with a dumbfounded expression, "You... you... how could you become a legend rank?"

A smile appeared on Shen Xiu's face, "Tatsuya is more useful than I ever thought. He had quite a few good things."

A trace of envy and jealousy appeared on Shen Ming and other elders' faces. Shen Xiu was just Gold Rank before now she was legend rank that they couldn't even dream. They were already Black Gold. They wondered if they used the same resources that Shen Xiu got then, he would surely reach Legend Rank.

Shen Ming coughed, "We can agree with you being the proxy leader, but you must contribute to the sacred family."

Shen Xiu agreed as if Shen Ming had said something very reasonable. She took out a book from her ring and placed it by her side, "This is the improved cultivation technique. You can all practice it."

Shen Ming picked the book with trembling hands. Other elders were also looking at it with intense desire.

Shen Xiu watched the scene and said, "Although so, but brother got injured after practicing it. I think that Tatsuya didn't completely lose his sanity. He left a backhand that if someone other than me practices it, they will feel the backlash. You must make sure to prepare healing items and practice the technique with care."

Shen Ming's eyes twitched. Legend rank was just one step away from him but, when he thought that Shen Hong was injured, he was not sure. He didn't believe that Tatsuya was enough to lay down such deep traps, but Tatsuya was a mysterious person for him. They didn't find much information about him.

When he was in a dilemma, a black vortex appeared in the hall. Two youth wearing black and white clothes entered. The one in white was a handsome youth and, the one in black looked severely injured.

Looking at these two, Shen Xiu was surprised. Soon she thought they must be from the Dark Guild.

Long Sha and Gui Sha, who came to the sacred family for information, were surprised. Both of them looked around then their eyes fell on Shen Xiu. They could tell this woman was strong, "Who are you?"

Shen Xiu eyes examined Gui Sha. She could tell he was seriously injured, "I am Shen Xiu, proxy head of the sacred family."

Long Sha looked at her with surprise. They didn't pay much attention to anyone in the sacred family other than Shen Hong, "Where did Shen Hong go?"

Shen Ming wanted to say something but, then he looked at the book in his hand. If he desired to reach the legend rank, then he would need Shen Xiu's help. He decided to watch the changes.

Shen Xiu narrowed her eyes, "Brother was injured by the backlash while trying to breakthrough to legend rank. He is currently healing from his injuries. He can't meet you."

Gui Sha laughed, "Tell him Gui Sha want to meet him." He felt something was wrong. He never knew they had a legend rank in the Sacred Family.

Suddenly a smile appeared on Shen Xiu's face, "You must be Lord Gui Sha, then the other one must be Lord Long Sha. Brother told me about you. He asked me to help the Lords in any way I can." Just now, she heard Tatsuya's voice in her head.

Tatsuya had been paying attention to both Gui Sha and Shen Xiu. When they appeared he told Shen Xiu all she needed to know about them.

Long Sha was astounded after hearing that, other than Shen Hong, no one in the sacred family knew about them. He still decided to be careful, but he also wanted information about the boy Gui Sha fought.

Gui Sha saw a nod from Long Sha and said, "Do you know the adopted son of Ye Zong?"

Hearing Tatsuya's name, the elders were surprised. Shen Xiu surveyed Gui Sha's body with a peculiar gaze.

An annoyed look appeared on Gui Sha's face after seeing her gaze, "What are you looking at?"

Shen Xiu looked at him as if watching an idiot, "By chance, you didn't attack Tatsuya? Right?"

Both of them were startled. Gui Sha was annoyed by the look she was giving him but still said, "How did you know?"

That was all the confirmation Shen Xiu needed. She stared at Gui Sha as if seeing a wonder.

Gui Sha became even more irritated, "You!! what are you looking at?"

Shen Xiu shook her head, "You attacked Tatsuya and, you are still alive. That alone is a wonder to me."

Long Sha stared at her, "What do you know about him?"

Shen Xiu had a sexy smile on her face, "Everything, after all, I am his lover."

Gui Sha assumed the defensive position after hearing that. He was worried that Tatsuya would attack him in the next moment.

On the contrary, Long Sha was calm, "What do you mean by that?"

"Tatsuya is a prodigy, maybe even the greatest genius ever. He is calm, meticulous, a tactician, an alchemist, inscription master. In terms of strength, he possesses overwhelming power. But, you would know about his strength more than me."

A name appeared in both Gui Sha's and Long Sha's head. Long Sha narrowed his eyes, "Does he have pale skin overflowing soul force?"

Shen Xiu's looked confused, "He doesn't have pale skin. His soul force is also very calm. Why would you ask that?"

"Before I tell you that. Tell me, what is the relation between you two?"

Long Sha was curious about what she said before. He didn't feel like she was the enemy or, Shen Hong wouldn't have told her about them.

If she had attacked Shen Hong, then she wouldn't know about them.

Shen Xiu looked at both of them, "As I said, Tatsuya is a prodigy but, that doesn't change the fact he is still young. He has a weakness."

Long Sha stared at her, "That is?"

A proud smile appeared on her face, "Women, His weakness is women. He is lascivious that it the only time it becomes easy to manipulate him."

Gui Sha and Long Sha were stunned. They were experts- they used the Spiritual Constellation Technique. Their blood boiled and pain-filled their soul. The only thing they thought about was reaching the peak of this world. Tatsuya was already so strong. Only the demon lord could defeat him.

But, they understood, if this was Tatsuya's initial life, then he was already at the peak of life. They had seen many people like that who, after becoming strong, indulged in things like this.

Gui Sha laughed, "Fine!! How much do you know about his powers? How is he so strong?" He was very interested in how strong Tatsuya was.

Shen Xiu shook her head, "I don't know much since he never fought before. I knew he was strong since even after I reached the legend rank, I felt danger from him. If you truly want to know, then I can ask but, at a price."

Long Sha nodded, "what do you want?"

Shen Xiu thought for a bit, "A defensive artifact."

Long Sha agreed to her request. Knowing about Tatsuya was more important also Shen Xiu had reached Legend Rank. When the Demon Lord comes out, they can place a soul seal on her.

Gui Sha said, "How long do you need?"

A seductive smile appeared on her face, "Few hours!! I will come back in a few hours."

With that, she slowly walked out.

After Shen Xiu left, Long Sha looked at Shen Ming, "What is going on with Shen Hong?"

Shen Ming raised his hand, "I don't know! just before you came, she told us that Patriarch is injured and healing in his room."

Long Sha nodded towards Gui Sha. Gui Sha knew what he meant. A black vortex appeared, after some time, he appeared in Shen Hong's room.

Shortly he came back to the meeting hall, "It's empty."

Everyone was surprised, two of them even knew where Shen Hong was. They were the ones that guided Shen Hong to his room.

Long Sha started thinking of other possibilities. He took out an artifact, "Gui Sha, come with me. We will secretly follow her. With this artifact, she won't be able to realize that we are also there."

Looking at them disappearing, Shen Ming and other elders were confused. They didn't understand what was going on. Patriarch has disappeared, Shen Xiu became legend rank. Leaders of the dark guild appeared. Even the one's who knew Shen Xiu took over couldn't help but be confused, Since they left Shen Hong in his room.

Gui Sha and Long Sha silently followed Shen Xiu. They were surprised when Shen Xiu entered City Lords Mansion without anyone stopping her. They couldn't get too near but, they found a window view inside the room.

Both of them were surprised. A boy was lying on a bed with a beautiful girl on each side. Shortly, Shen Xiu entered the bedsheet. They could see something move under the blanket.

Seeing Shen Xiu in action, even their mouths and eyes twitched.

Although they only saw it from a hazy angle, they saw Shen Xiu throwing her clothes.

Shortly, there was a movement of another body under the blanket and, then the darkness covered all the windows. They couldn't see inside anymore.
