Chapter 15 - A Piece of Rock!

“This is……” Gu Qingyu stared at the piece of rock. The rock gave off a red glow, and lit up the whole room……It looked as if it was a precious treasure, extremely beautiful and dazzling.

“This is the Blood Life Jade. For some, it’s just a useless piece of rock, however for others, it could be a life-saving treasure!” The man said as he handed over the rock to her, “It has its own will. It told me, that you were from another world……Take it with you, and it will tell you how to proceed……”

“I don’t like to follow others instructions, especially from a completely useless piece of rock with no uses.” Gu Qingyu shrugged her shoulders, “It knows my origins? I am here and now, and my squadron is amazing! Nothing wrong with coming all the way here to the ancient times and traveling the world!”

“Just a piece of rock that has completely no usage?” The man suddenly laughed, “You actually said it’s a useless piece of rock? A piece of rock? Rock?”

……What’s his problem! Now I know why they said he clearly has some mental issues!!

He suddenly flickered his hands when she was about to interrupt him, “A piece of rock! No! It’s not just merely a piece of rock!!”

Just as his voice faded, the rock suddenly emitted an intense red radiance. Gu Qingyu couldn’t help but cover her eyes……

Rays of red light shoot out and the light scattered, Gu Qingyu opened her eyes again.

She saw…an entire world that was dyed in red…and before her, stood a man dressed in a red robe……

He had a beautiful and delicate face, his mouth curved into a devilish smile.

The pressure…is really heavy!!

“Wh-who are you?” Gu Qingyu subconsciously took a step back.

“Heh, you just said Revered One was a piece of rock, now you’re wondering who Revered One is?” His voice brimmed with charisma.

“Y-you’re the Blood Life Jade that he was just talking about?” Gu Qingyu found it unbelievable, she opened her eyes wide and stared at the pretty man, “No way……”

“What else, then?” asked the man,  “Heh, this is the first time someone has said that Revered One was a useless piece of rock……”

“So, you’re really a piece of rock!” She stared unbelievably at him, “I heard him say, not only do you know my origins, but you also choose me? What kind of selection method did you use?”

“Heh, not only does I know your origins, I even know who killed you in the past.” The red-clothed man gave her a devilish smile, “Would you like to know……”

“I don’t”, Gu Qingyu immediately spurted out two words, “Is it useful for you to know my origins? It’s not like you can send me back! And I don’t even want to go back even if you offered! My comrades are wonderful and I’m still going to go on an adventure! Don’t you know that this is a precious body? There are countless of people that could only wish for magic! So please, stop bothering me, ok?”

“I’m bothering you? How dare you say that I’m bothering you?” He didn’t get angry nor annoying, instead his face carried a mocking look, “Ridiculous.”

“I don’t think you’re that funny either!” She remarked sarcastically, “Let me tell you, my friends are very powerful! I advise you to be sensible and let me go!”

“Oh? Powerful?” The red-robed man’s originally calm and collected demeanor seemed to have been upset by Gu Qingyu’s words, “I would actually like to know, exactly how powerful they are!”

“My god, you’re so annoying!” Gu Qingyu didn’t seem so calm either, “Alright, you win! I’ll accept whatever you tell me to do! Just let me go, ok?!”

“It’s very simple,” The man smiled enticingly, “From today and forwards, you must carry the Blood Life Jade with you at all times, that’s all.”

That’s it? “You even dragged out the whole day for such a simple task! Couldn’t you tell me from the start?!” Gu Qingyu glared fiercely at him.

“Ey, Revered One haven’t finished yet.” said the man unhurriedly and calmly. His palm suddenly beamed, and the rock appeared. “You are allowed to tell your friends about this, but never must you tell them or anyone that you’ve seen Revered One.”

Che~, he actually knows how to feel bad. Gu Qingyu looked at him in disdain, and nodded, “I can promise that, but you must tell me the reason why I’m here!” If she didn’t ask for anything back, wouldn’t she be too much of a goody? She, Gu Qingyu, definitely wasn’t someone who didn’t take advantage of people!

“That I can do, but now is not the time.” He said with a coquet smile, “I forgot to tell you, the Blood Life Jade is a unique and matchless treasure. Many would love to get their hands on it, and there isn’t a single martial artist that wouldn’t want it.”

“Eh? What should I do then?” Gu Qingyu frowned, “It’s not like I’m a martial artist expert, and I can’t have Jia Qizhe or Qi Yichen to protect me at all times. Am I not screwed then? Hello? I  cherish my own life very much!”

“Psst, I won’t allow my own people to get harmed.” He leisurely picked up a piece of rock on the floor, then slowly and steadily crushed it into dust, “Those people, I’ll help you take care of them.”

My people? Alright, I’ll allow myself to be one for the time being……’Take care of’? Why does it sound so dreadful! Kk, I won’t investigate this for now.

“Then…why do you keep calling yourself ‘Revered One’?……Who are you even?” She asked curiously.

That guy actually slightly lowered his eyes, “This Revered One was previously……the Flame Revered.”

Previously?

Gu Qingyu wanted to ask clearly, but the red-robed man lightly swung his sleeves, “Forget it. Let’s stop here for today, I’m tired.”

Gu Qingyu still wanted to say something, but she suddenly felt the skies and earth tumbling down. She closed her eyes and didn’t sense anything anymore.
