d.a.m.ned death G.o.d? Huang Qiuyan looks up at Sung NMil . How daring is this girl to curse the death G.o.d?

"Don't blame someone without any evidence . " Fu Sheng stares at Sung NMi . "It might be him, but the method is too crude . The souls are not reaped from this world . I am guessing that even the reapers cannot enter or leave this world right now . He's most unlikely to be the one behind this . "

Huang Qiuyan scratches her head . They are talking about the G.o.d of death . The real G.o.d of DEATH? 

[Why are you surprised? Sung NMi is immortal human . Fu Sheng is a pureblooded vampire . You are a converted vampire-zombie . Of course, there are G.o.ds present too . ]

NMi lets out an exasperated sigh . "That G.o.d is a manipulative jerk . We don't know what he can or cannot do . He doesn't like my father either . His archenemy is my cousin-in-law . "

"NMi, Reis and Arius are not enemies . " Se-Yong tells her, "You know how it is . The G.o.ds often get bored . Even I get bored sometimes and stir things for my amus.e.m.e.nt . "

"Each time you stirred trouble, it was I who cleaned it up . " She stomps his foot . "If it is that G.o.d, I swear that I will steal my father's scythe and cut him into half . "

She's feisty . Klyn finds her more intriguing with every pa.s.sing minute . He keeps forgetting the fact that she can use the scythe on him if he does anything wrong .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt"We will start by inspecting this location first . " Fu Sheng points at the closest gate from the castle in the map . "We will leave tomorrow morning . "

Not bothering to hear any more question, he grabs Huang Qiuyan's arm and walks out of the throne room . Seeing him leaving like that, Sung NMi frowns deeply . She crosses her arms and looks at the map . Why can't they leave right now?

"It's already evening," Aiken exclaims .  

She gazes out of the window . Crimson rays of sunlight are breaking through the sky . It will be night soon . Those creatures are most active in the night . It's not a good idea to leave right now . Her brother pats her back . "It will be alright . Our family will return soon . "

"Tomorrow, it is then . " She sighs . Being cautious is better than being foolish .

***

Fu Sheng takes Huang Qiuyan to her room . "Take some rest . "

He pauses to take a glance at her . He pats her head once and turns around to leave .

"Wait . " All she has been doing is taking rest . "I am going with you tomorrow, right?"

He turns around and looks at her . "You are not . "

"Why?" She widens her eyes . "I want to go too . It could be dangerous . "

"It is dangerous . " He looks into her eyes . "You are not strong enough to accompany us . Stay in the castle with Fu Mian and practice your magic . "

"Fu Sheng, I can be helpful . " She meets his gaze . "Take me with you . "

If she stays back, she will keep worrying . It's better if she goes with him . She wants to be useful to him . Fu Mian is safe as long as she stays inside the castle . But, n.o.body is safe outside the castle . Though he's a lot stronger than her, she is afraid of letting him leave .

[If he dies, you will die too . ] Xiao Chun Dan reminds her . [You should stop him from going . ]

[Xiao Chun Dan, shut up . ]

[He's right though . You nearly died when you fought with the rank 3 vampire-zombie last time . He killed several vampire-zombies in a short time . Do you think that you can support him at your level? You will be a hindrance to him and the others . ]

Her lips tremble when she registers Xiao Chun Dan's words . She's weak . What should she do? 

Fu Sheng notices her sadness . He pulls her into his embrace and strokes her back . Taking his mate along with him will never be his first choice . The hunters are interested in her . The Sung sibling might do nothing because of the blood deal . There's no telling what hunters will do if they find out about her condition . "Be good and stay in the castle . "

She doesn't reply . He lifts her chin and bends down his head to kiss her . He stops only a few centimetres away from her lips . His eyes s.h.i.+ne with amus.e.m.e.nt when he sees waiting for him to kiss her . He's not giving in too soon . He rubs his finger on her soft lips .  

d.a.m.n! He nearly kissed her . She almost won . Her eyes snap open . "You want to kiss me . Why are you being stingy?"

He lets out a laugh . "How do you know that I want to kiss you? Can you feel what I feel?"

"Tch!" How will she feel it? There's a giant wall around his heart . The bond has some uses, after all . It's fine . She doesn't need the bond . She can feel it with her lips . She stands on her toes to reach his lips .  

Laughing louder, he moves his head back and covers her mouth . He chuckles with a light tone . The woman is quite bold . He grabs her b.u.t.t and squeezes it hard . She freezes . It's so sudden . He tilts his head a little . She closes her eyes again and moans when his cool breath tickles her ear . Her bones are melting like hot wax . "While you are waiting for me, you should focus on how to make me kiss you back . "

He pinches her b.u.t.t to wake her up from the daze before letting her go . She falls back on the bed . Looking smug, he whistles a playful tone . Huang Qiuyan gawks at his leaving figure .  

He played her!

[You are easily seduced, Elder Sister . I don't know what to do with you . ]

"Xiao Chun Dan!" Huang Qiuyan's face is flushed . "Give me all those skills . I want to subdue him . "

He appears in front of her . "You don't have enough points to buy them . Do you know how many points you need to buy a basic french kissing skill?"

"How many?" She asks .

"2000 points . " Xiao Chun Dan inserts his hands in his pockets and chins up . "The bed skills are quite wanted . I can get you some erotica or manuals on these skills, but I don't think that they can help you much . "

"I have read plenty of erotic novels . " Huang Qiuyan waves her hand . During her free time at her workplace, she used to read erotic novels online . She has enough theoretical knowledge . She doesn't know how to apply them . In addition to that, Fu Sheng makes her brain mushy with that look in his eyes alone . She's sure that she will gain the upper hand someday . Practice makes one perfect .

But, there's another serious matter .

"How do I become strong, Xiao Chun Dan?"
