Ju-long used telepathic communication to call Ai in a hurry.

"Ai, go see what's going on over there."

"Yes, Dono-sama." Ai quickly vanished after given the tasks.

Ju-long impatiently waited Ai's report while gazing intensely at the area surrounded by the abnormal clouds above.

Then a childish voice belong to a female communicated with Ju-long. "Do-Dono-sama! Miss Khalid....Miss-"

Ju-long anxiously ordered. "Take me there!"

Ju-long vanished from his office and appeared in a crowded street. The heavy rain, the abnormal clouds, and roaring thunderstorms caused a gloomy and cold atmosphere. In front of Ju-long were crowded pedestrians whispering to each other while others had expressions of horror shown on their faces.

Ai stopped and immediately turned around and to spot Ju-long slowly walking towards them. The atmosphere changed drastically turned cold, causing the nearby people to turn around to where the source is from, but what they did not expect to see a handsome man with raven black hair making his way to the dreadful scene. His wet suit clutched onto his tone body, making the ladies blush and and giving him lustful eyes while the males show admiration and envy. But no matter what their thoughts were, they stepped aside to form a path to the unconscious body.

Ju-long did not care about any of them as he made his way to the fragile body lying on the wet cement. The woman lying on the road was deathly pale, and the side of her head facing down is bleeding excessively. There was a horrifying road abrasion on the side of the face, her left lower leg twisted outward where the completely fracture femur ghastly protruded out of the skin. It also seemed that there was also blood in the lower region. Her hands were still on her tiny bump, like she was protecting the precious life forming in her stomach. Her blood was mixed with the heavy rain, giving the air the smell of death and iron. This body was Qin Shimei's!

Ju-long's pupils constricted, both of his hands forming a tight fist to the point that blue veins were popping out and visible to the eyes. Ju-long's body trembled, his heart quickened, and he felt like he couldn't breathe while his mind blanked out. The only thing that Ju-long could hear was the high pitched ringing in his ears, blocking the sounds of pedestrians and wailing sirens.

Ai, who has been watching Ju-long the whole time, felt a dangerous killing intent leaking out from his body.

When Ai saw her lord's eyes change to a familiar red, the rain from the ground slowly floated up with layers of ice forming around the water droplets. Ai quickly froze the time, right before the whole C-City mortals could find out.

"Wait! Dono-sama, stop! We are in public!" Ai telepathically reminded Ju-long.

Ju-long snapped out from his chaotic emotions and the red glow reverted back to their original color, but his eyes never left Qin Shimei's lifeless body. He took a couple steps forward and bent down to gently carry Qin Shimei's disfigured body. Ju-long slowly stood back up, afraid that she will slip from his arms. He stared down at her face. His lips quivered and his vision became blurry. It didn't take long before tears fell down his face. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

In a cold voice, he ordered Ai to inform An Zhu to meet up with him at the underground laboratory STAT. Although he sounded calm, his hands were trembling uncontrollably. After giving some more orders, Ju-long and Qin Shimei's body disappeared along with Ai.

At the underground laboratory, An Zhu wore his white lab coat. He held his grey tablet in his hand and stared at two healing tanks in front of him. He had some of his assistants prepare the sterile field for surgery and got the preparation ready for the healing tanks.

Ju-long and Ai appeared behind An Zhu in a flash. Ju-long quickly headed to the operating table and gently placed Qin Shimei's lifeless body down.

An Zhu gave a glance around as soon as he felt his boss' presence. He knew about the situation from Ai but he did not think that it will be to the point that Qin Shimei's body would be a disfigured corpse! She is immortal, along with the fact of being Amira Khalid, the granddaughter of Alaric Khalid, the god of heaven and planes! But what An Zhu did not know was that Qin Shimei (Amira Khalid) not only have memory loss, but also became mortal ever since that incident.

An Zhu places the grey tablet hovering on top of Qin Shimei to scan her body. After the scanning was done, series of holograms' diagnoses popped out from the screen. An Zhu read each diagnosis and every time he read them, his eyebrows furrowed deeper.

An Zhu looked at Ju-long and spoke, "Boss, the surgery is going to take hours to complete for her to return to former condition."

Ju-long clenched his fists. "As long as Shimei'er and my baby is alive, I don't care how long the surgery is going to take."

"Yes, Boss."

An Zhu and his assistant immediately scrubbed their hands and tossed their gowns on. The surgery lasted for twenty-three hours before placing Qin Shimei's body and the baby, surgically separated from her, in the healing tanks filled with clear green liquids.

Ju-long did not leave the area but instead watched the whole operation from beginning to end. Ju-long stood in front of the two healing tanks, one on the left containing Qin Shimei's body while the right contained a four month old fetus floating in green liquids. Finally, Qin Shimei's condition was back to her former state. And there wasn't an inch of bruises on her.

While having his hand on the recovering tank containing Qin Shimei, Ju-long monotonously says, "Ai, start the soul mission."

Ai was surprised.

"Dono-sama, no immortals have done the soul mission for centuries! Plus, it is a very dangerous mission! Your soul can obliterate if missions fail three times. Please reconsider!"

"Ai, I had been traveling to different planes searching for her and now I finally found her. Because of me, she... This time I will not let her suffer again." Ju-long removed his hand from the tank and turned to face Ai and continued with a mocking tone. "And besides, the soul mission rules does not apply to a taboo god like me."

Ai knew how stubborn her lord is. With a deep sigh, she straightened up and replied, "I will go and start the soul mission."
