2 Chapter: 2

Yun Che had a forced smile on his face as he stood in front of Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu, both glaring at him with smirking faces. He didn't need anyone else to tell him that they didn't come with peace.

"You finally stopped running, brat!" Xiao Ba shouted in annoyance. "We are in a good mood right now. So break your legs and we will let you leave."

'Even with CQC and Swordsmanship, not forgetting that I do not have a sword, I doubt I can pose any danger to them. With their strength, they can very much squash me like a bug.'

"Can we not solve it with any other method?" A forced smile appeared over Yun Che's face as he prayed for Jasmine to wake up already and save him from this mess. She was the only saving grace for him right now. "How about letting me go for some money?"

"Bha! As if a trash like you would have enough money to satiate our request." Xiao Jiu sneered and said. "Be a good kid and break your legs."

"..."

A bout of silence initiated between them.

Both parties stared at each other.

"Dafuq are you staring at, trash?! Did you not hear us already? Or do you want this uncle to do it personally for you? It would only be legs at that point then!"

Finally reaching his patience, Xiao Ba shouted irritatingly. He was getting annoyed with the constant silence from Yun Che.

Yun Che had a focused expression on his face, like someone who had shit to hold before reaching the bathroom. His mind was racing with different ideas but the best one indeed sounded to run away.

'Then again, with their cultivation, catching me wouldn't even pose them any trouble! I'm royally fucked!'

"Forget it, Brother Ba. This brat is just wasting our time! Let's break all his limbs and throw him within the forest. Young master should be waiting for us. He might get displeased if we took too much of our time."

"You are right." Xiao Ba nodded.

Both of them looked towards Yun Che who took a step backward in caution. A grin appeared over their faces as they walked towards Yun Che.

'Fuck! Why isn't she waking up already!?'

Maybe his desperate prayer was finally heard, a pressure descended enough to make the world creak and shriek loudly. The dust around him was blown away and the ground started to crack from the sheer weight produced by the pressure.

Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu didn't even have time to appreciate the beauty of the girl that appeared behind Yun Che even for a second before a crimson line appeared and their bodies were divided into two! They still held the same grinning expression even till they were nothing but cold bodies.

"To make this princess make a move against such insignificant ants! It seems like this princess's luck has been wasted to meet a person like you!"

Yun Che almost had tears in his eyes staring at the red-haired little girl that appeared beside him. Her body glowed with greenish light which he presumed was the purification light of the Sky Poison Pearl.

Her red hair swayed beautiful under the moonlight and her abyssal black eyes stared down at Yun Che with disgust and disdain. Obviously, she wasn't pleased to have his presence beside her.

Despite her being petite and the size of a 13-years-old, Yun Che sucked a deep breath knowing nothing he had ever seen could match her beauty.

'These Chinese authors… The only good thing about their novel is definitely the heroines! All of them are just breathtaking!'

"What are you staring at this princess for?" The red-haired beauty asked in annoyance and irritation.

"... Do I have the owner to know the name of this princess?"

As a person who came from a world where a thing called "cooperation slave" existed, Yun Che adapted to the red-haired beauties behavior rapidly.

Right now, he was as weak as a mortal. His main if not only source of becoming strong as the red-haired girl in front of him. So approached her with the best approach he could think of—bootlicking!

'An ancient technique essential for a person living in 2023! Don't take me lightly, little girl!'

"Humph! You aren't worthy to know the name of this princess!" She went quiet for a second or two before speaking. "But since this princess is feeling generous, you are allowed to refer to this princess as Jasmine."

"Jasmine then."

"Don't call this princess with such familiarity!"

Yun Che's brow twitched. He finally understood how hard it was to talk with her.

"What are you looking at?" As a lapse of time passed in silence with Yun Che staring at her and her back at him, the red-head finally asked in an irritating voice.

'What do you mean why am I staring at you?! Isn't this the time where you ask me to become your disciple and bestow me Heretic God's Inheritance? Why are you suddenly so silent?'

Though of course he couldn't say it out loud, leaving him staring at her, waiting for her to say something.

"Well… For starters, who are you? And why were you poisoned?"

Since it was going nowhere, Yun Che decided to ask a question that should have been natural in the current situation.

"You dare to ask about this princess's identity?"

'Then whatthefuck you want me to do?!' Yun Che wanted to shout, but the fear of her power kept him quiet.

Even though her life was bound to him that didn't mean she would tolerate his behavior. Such was the case with original Yun Che when he declined to accept her as his master resulting in him prostrating in front of her.

Current Yun Che was someone who learned from the mistakes of others. As such, he decided to remain silent.

"This princess sees that you are cripple and don't have intact profound veins." Jasmine looked at him with her dark eyes and stated. "If you promise to fulfill three of this princess's requests then this princess won't mind helping you restore your veins!"

Yun Che acted surprised and exclaimed.

"You can heal my crippled veins?!"

"Humph! Healing a cripple person is as easy as crippling them for this princess." She snorted and puffed out her chest with pride before stating. "Now choose. Will you accept this princess's offer?"

"Ugh… What's the offer?" Yun Che hesitated a little and inquired. He really wanted all of this to end already so he doesn't have to act to make the current situation natural and to not arouse any of her suspicions.

'Though she doesn't really have another choice, does she? In any case, if she wants to have her own body, she has no choice but to give Heretic God's Inheritance to me.'

"It's simple." A demonic smirk appeared over her cute little face as she stated. "First, to gather a stalk of Netherworld Udumbara Flower, three Profound Beast Cores no lower than that of the Tyrant Profound Realm, and at least thirty five kilos of Purple Veined God Crystal, second to reach the Sovereign Profound Realm within thirty years!"

She halted, waiting for his astonished response but was caught off-guard seeing impassive expression over his face. No, the right words would be boring. He looked bored!?

'Were my calculations wrong? Isn't this a mortal world? Just the mention of Tyrant Profound Realm Beast would be enough to scare them let alone becoming Sovereign Profound Realm within thirty years. Why does he look so bored?'

The red-head couldn't understand what was going on within Yun Che's mind.

"As for the third one, this princess wants you to kneel down and worship this princess as your master! If you do all these three, then this princess will gift you with the profound veins containing the power of God!"

The moment she finished speaking, she was left stupidfed and with a blank state of mind staring at the kneeling Yun Che. He didn't even wait to give her request a second thought and kneeled the moment she finished. It looked like he was waiting for the current opportunity his whole life!

'Does this person even have his own pride? How can he kneel in front of someone so easily?'

Of course, she wouldn't understand the intricate thought process of a reincarnated person looking for an easy route to reach apex!
