The awakening of bestotted love

Xiao Lei

If any cultivator from the future had seen the sword, they would have started to beg for their puny life. After all the number of people who could rival the sword's owner could be counted in one hand.

Even though the worker did not know that but he was still scared. A sword against one's neck can make even the strongest petrified and if you had to add the strong killing intent and spiritual pressure of the wielder, you can do nothing but pray to the Gods above for your safety.

"Lan Zhan lower your sword. Why taint your sword with this demon's blood I'm sure that this trash will soon face his doom." Wei Ying says with a sadistic smirk.

Lan Zhan understands the look and lowers the sword. He knows that his lover can be quite evil when it comes to punishments. He is sure that by the end of the month the worker would be begging for his death.

As soon as the swords was withdrawn the worker's legs gives out and he slumps down. Never before had he ever felt this small and helpless. As a worker he had come across many cultivators but non of them had ever been this strong.

Such display of power soon attracted attention. Many workers that were working on other floors came rushing down. People from outside too peered from the door to check the source of such strong spiritual pressure. Everyone present were stunned when they saw two children along with a worker whose neck was bleeding slightly.

"Aiyo.... I get it that we are two unearthly beautifully children but we don't need such a big audience. We are here to buy a servant for our master and hence can't give you any fan service. So go along with your life..." Wei Ying says shooing people.

Everyone started to leave as they didn't want to anger the young cultivators and be the next victim. They being mere mortals could not understand and compete with cultivators. The group of workers that came down too started to leave after some hesitance. The only one who remained was a middle aged man who appeared to be the supervisor of the place.

"We are honored to have such esteemed guests come here to our pavilion. If our servant has offended you and failed to show our hospitality then I, Wang Sun ask for forgiveness. I shall punish him accordingly. " the middle aged man whose name seemed to be Wang Sun says.

The worker that was still in a haze suddenly comes to his senses. He was scared to face the people present in the room. He flinched when Wang Sun orders him to go and bring some acceptable slaves and refreshments for the cultivators. He hurriedly stands up and leaves.

"Please take a seat, refreshments will be  brought any minute now. " says wang sun gesturing to the nearest table.

"You did not have to trouble yourself. We could have just left after buying a slave." says Wei ying as he proceeds to sit in the table along with Lan Zhan.

Wang Sun smiles stiffly and does not reply. The refreshments were soon brought by a new worker. Wei Ying pours himself and Lan Zhan tea. Lan Zhan drinks the tea quietly whereas Wei Ying grumbles about how the green bean cakes being bland and unflavoured.

Soon a group of slaves were brought by the worker. They looked quite fit and healthy compared to the ones outside. They were all young and the oldest of them who was a male was barely over twenty eight years.The youngest was a girl and she was nineteen at most.

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan had 6 males and 2 females to choose from. They had already discussed the gender of the slave they very buying therefore they had to select one from the group of males.

"We are looking for a male slave who is atleast twenty five years and literate. If you met the criteria please step forward." Lan Zhan states after putting down the cup. Three males step forward after listening to Lan Zhan.

Wei Ying studies the three male slaves intently. The slave in the right was timid and submissive , he had a delicate demure and was trembling. The one present in the middle was the oldest out of all the others and was impassive. The last one was smiling vaguely at them.

Wei Ying looks at Lan Zhan who was busy sipping tea. "Done? " Lan Zhan asks Wei Ying when he catches the other looking at him.

"Lan Zhan aren't you worried that I'll make the wrong choice. " Wei Ying says grinning broadly.

"hmm. " Lan Zhan replies.

"tsk...what a boring reply." Wei Ying says and walks towards the slaves. He stops in front of the oldest slave and questions,"What's your name? "

"This low born's name is Xiao Lei." the slave answers as he bows down.

Wei Ying smiles and turns towards Wang Sun. "We will take him."

Wang Sun gives a nod of acknowledgement and informs the worker to bring the required papers. Soon the slave/life contract is brought by the worker and presented to Wei Ying. Lan Zhan without any instructions takes out a pouch containing money. The worker checks the pouch and nods at Wang Sun.

"Congratulations on finding a suitable slave for your master, honourable cultivators." Wang Sun says.

"Since our work here is done we shall take our leave." Wei Ying says as he and Lan Zhan bows slightly for farewell.

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan starts to leave even before Wang Sun could bid them goodbye. The new companion of their tailing slowly behind them. They soon get out of the slave market and walk into an inn. Wei Ying orders some food while Xiao Lei is taken by the inn-worker to bathe and change clothes.

Since today the worker(Han) of the Black Hall experienced great pain all over his body. Han felt like his body on fire and that his inside were being crushed over and over again. He went to different doctors and prayed at various shrines but got no results. Everyday his pain got stronger and more intolerable . It only stopped after 3 months when his soul left his body.

But that has nothing to do with our innocent Wei Ying (○ﾟεﾟ○)
