The Eternal battle

"It's rare for you to smile like that. Has something good happened? "

Shi Tu drove his eyes away from his phone screen to see Arcana that had already woken up.

Although Arcana was sleeping, her hair was still neat and she didn't show any signs of drowsiness, she may have woken up some time ago.

Shi Tu hid his phone and asked, " I see that you woke up. How is your body, are you okay? "

Arcana stood up and stretched her body a little temptingly, " I feel weak, as if anything can take my life. "

" This is normal after you lose all the power you used to have. "

Shi Tu found an intense urgency in Arcana's eyes as there were so many questions on her mind but she refrained from asking.

Shi Tu pointed to Arcana to come and sit next to him, and as soon as she approached him, he grabbed her by her waist and pulled her towards him.

" I didn't lie then, not totally. "

"I was almost dying there, " Arcana replied in a faint voice as if she didn't want to talk about the matter.

Shi Tu looked at Arcana in his arms and said with confidence, " If there was a danger of death, I would never have sent you, no matter what happened. It is true that I used you, but there was no slight chance that you would die even if they violated my expectations and really tried to kill you. At that time, they would all have died for trying to harm you. "

Arcana leaned on Shi Tu's chest and said in an almost whispering voice, " Well, I will not ask more. "

Arcana is not stupid, after all she is an old monster, she knows that Shi Tu is lying, if he had the strength to deal with them, why would he need her as bait? Even if he could, the price he has to pay must not be cheap and he definitely won't waste it for her.

There was a little silence in a bit embarrassing atmosphere because Shi Tu refuses to explain everything to her, this is like saying 'follow me and shut up'

She can say that Shi Tu will not tell her anything so there is no sense in question.

After some seemingly eternal time it seemed that Arcana had made up her mind.

" By the way, Konrad, did you make that breakfast? Smell good "

" Shi Tu " Shi Tu replied with the usual smile, " Yes, I prepared it. I haven't had breakfast yet. What do you think about eating together? "

" Sure .... Shi Tu "

Arcana seemed a little happy that Shi Tu was starting to show some consideration to her, regardless of his sincerity.

Arcana sat at the table and tasted the dishes.

" It's strange, there is something strange about these dishes. "

" Is it bad? I don't think your taste have changed, or do you no longer prefer lighter dishes? "

Arcana was a little surprised and looked again at the dishes in front of her, as Shi Tu said, it matches her preferences.

" On the contrary, despite the simplicity of this breakfast, it is the most delicious thing I have eaten in my life. "

Arcana tasted more then looked at Shi Tu and said, " How did you do it with the ingredients in this world? These are definitely normal ingredients because I don't feel any energy from them, and the level of these dishes is different from what you served yesterday. "

Shi Tu simply replied, " Nothing big. Have you forgotten that I became the greatest alchemist just to be able to prepare the most delicious dishes to satisfy my cravings? What I made you eat before, I didn't make it with all my effort and it was only some of the things that I randomly prepared, but this breakfast made to be perfect. "

" You know, you don't have to force yourself. "

Shi Tu avoided answering and said, " What are you going to do now? Would you rather adventure on yourself or accompany me? "

"I will accompany you at the moment, because I also want to join an academy. I also didn't have the opportunity to do this because I was the heir from birth since everything was learned privately. "

Arcana took her stocking ring and gave it to Shi Tu.

"It would be better if you kept it, it would be very good for you. "

This storage ring contains most of Arcana's personal possessions, treasures, cultivation resources and weapons that cannot be described and only a few in the world can possess such wealth, in the current Shi Tu situation, this will be a great support for him.

" No need " Shi Tu refused to take the ring without hesitation.

" Whatever the cultivation resources inside, they will not benefit me anymore. "

" What do you mean? You may not be able to use most of the cultivation resources because of your low cultivation, but there are a lot of resources suitable for you "

It is normal for Arcana not to collect low-level cultivation resources with her, but these things will naturally accumulate after each battle, and it is not bad to have some if she decide to get a disciple.

"You'll know when we get to the Yin-Yang World. "

If Shi Tu breakthrough in Qi Cultivation System and didn't do so in the Primordial Chaos Cultivation System, the balance in his body would be upset and currently he couldn't do so unless he found a way to defeat the two gray Shi Tu so it doesn't matter how much resources he possesses because it will not benefit him at all.

" Well as you want "

Arcana got her ring back, and they both finished breakfast, After that, they changed clothes and got ready to leave.

" By the way, " it seemed that arcana remembered something and asked, " Aren't you intending to deal with the people behind that person from yesterday? They probably won't give up easily. "

" oh, it is true , " Shi remember Tu Yang Chengfeng yesterday and continued, " Don't worry, his boss is one of my followers. He is most likely now fleeing to another country and leaking information about in an attempt to deal with me. "

Shi Tu seemed extremely happy talking about it, "Why do you look happy that one of your followers betrayed you?" asked Arcana.

"Well, you know my way of gaining blind loyalty, right? His dear brother and friend have died at the hands of some of his friends who have turned them into fanatical followers of me so he blames me for that, but he has not tried anything stupid because he knows that the matter is hopeless as there is no one to cooperates with him, he probably thinks I intend to kill him so he decided to risk his life since he would die anyway in order to destroy me .

" Are you still doing these things? forcing friends and brothers to kill each other, your methods have not changed after all this time "

Arcana said this while remembering the fanatical looks on the faces of Shi Tu's army in the past, they were so fanatical that they might kill their family and friends if they felt any resentment from them towards Shi Tu.

Shi Tu responded, " Don't say this, I didn't force them nor command them to do so, they just felt that they were intending to flee and that would be a problem for me so they eliminated the danger on their own, and even though Bao San had resentment against me but I didn't kill him, how could I be so cruel? "

" Heh, then with whom is he cooperating? I don't see any benefit in finding a party that might destroy your plan. "

Here, Shi Tu smiled happily and said, " I don't know, and I didn't plan for this. "

" What?! How is this possible? Do you want to convince me that there mortals who have exceeded your expectations and that you cannot know who they are? "

Arcana began to be a bit surprised because they knew Shi Tu's abilities and he usually takes all possible loads as he is not the kind that despises mortals so it's unlikely that this happened due to a miscalculation from Shi Tu.

" I didn't know they were there until a this morning when I received reports of bugging devices being found, either ..."

Shi Tu gave a look like a child who found an amusing toy, " Since their presence was surprising, why spoil the surprise? I want to see where they are going, what they will do, and what is their goal. "

" You are really strange. Usually everyone, including old monsters, hates that things get out of their control, but you are enjoying? "

" Yep, that is me "

Shi Tu responded with pride and didn't seem to feel at all ashamed of his unnatural personality.

They both left the VIP room and left the hotel.

When Shi Tu and Arcana got out of Mengzhu Hotel, they noticed that the hotel was surrounded by many black cars.

All of the cars were bulletproof cars, inside each car there were many husky men in black suits with sullen faces.

As soon as Shi Tu and Arcana were noticed, they all got out of the cars and surrounded Shi Tu and Arcana.
