Babel Novel
Chapter 93
Forbidden Mountain.
Long Ren placed Theresa who was half-conscious, on his bed in his room and vanished. He came back 2 minutes later with a bowl in his hand. In that bowl was a black sticky liquid that smelled bad.
He forced Theresa to open her mouth and drink the medicine. After she had drunk it, he took out a small glass bottle containing a white cream that smelled fragrant. He began to apply the cream to her , hands and legs.
“Mistress, sorry for going against the rules again.” he muttered.
When he was done applying the cream, all the injured parts vanished and now her skin was clear and smooth. Long Ren sighed and disappeared
10 minutes later.
Theresa opened her eyes slowly and felt her temperature.
“I’m really okay. But I feel… yeah. I really did lose some cultivation. I wonder how mama is now? Where is Long Ren?” she thought as she got out of bed.
She saw herself in an unfamiliar room but for some reason, she wasn’t scared. Maybe she had really come to trust Long Ren.
She walked to the door and opened it. She saw a passageway and followed it, climbing down the stairs.
Suddenly, she heard the groan of a man.
“That’s… is Long Ren fighting with Ju Wei again? Those silly boys.” she thought with a smile and continued climbing downstairs slowly only to hear a man’s cry.
“What’s happening? That sounded like…” she quickened her pace and ran down the stairs where she found a room that was locked from the outside.
“The cry is from this room but… who is it?” she thought.
“AHHHHHH”
She heard the miserable cry once more. Theresa felt her heart race.
“This voice is Long Ren’s. What happened to him? Why is he crying?” Theresa thought and started knocking hard on the wooden door even though it was locked from outside.
“Mistress, don’t come… in here please” she heard Long Ren telepath her.
“Why? What’s wrong?” she asked him telepathically.
“Don’t bother. I’m fine. I’m just going through something that our fox clan normally goes through. Don’t worry, I’ll be out in ten minutes. Go back and wait for me.” he explained .
“Okay. But please be careful and don’t give up, Ren’er.” she replied to him.
“You… called me Ren’er?” he asked.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes. I’ll wait for you,” she said and then he didn’t say anything back.
What she heard was a blood-curdling scream from Long Ren and her heart nearly jumped to her throat.
“Long Ren is lying to me. Why will he? I’m going in now.” she thought and then gathered a fireball.
It was far from what she expected. Just a small flame.
“How will I get in now?” Theresa thought.
She felt distressed for Long Ren. He’s her everything here in Luo Ye and she can’t let anything happen to him. Suddenly, the flame on her hand enlarged and in the middle of the fireball was a small yellow fire.
“I’ve still got my healer destroyer flame,” she exclaimed happily and then without hesitation, she shot it at the door which crumbled to pieces.
She found another door made from iron instead.
“This pet of mine!” Theresa launched another fireball at it and it melted down.
She stepped into the room and saw Long Ren rolling all over the floor completely naked and bruised all over.
At his abdomen, there was a wound.
“Ahhhhh!” she screamed and immediately turned around.
“Mistress… why did you come in? I… told you not to… ptui,” he spat out blood and clutched his severely aching tummy.
“I… why are you naked? What’s happening to you? You have a wound in your abdomen.”
“Mistress, I lied to you earlier. My cultivation was low; not because of demonic rats.” Long ren said with a hoarse voice.
“Clothe yourself please. I want to help you.” she begged and refused to look back.
“I’m too weak, mistress. Please, go. I’ll be out in ten minutes.” Long Ren urged her with gritted teeth.
“Long Ren, please be okay. I’ll wait for you outside,” Theresa said and ran out of the room.
He removed his hand from his abdomen and blood flowed out. Not far away from him was the corpse of a demonic rat that had two horns. Long Ren stared at it with hatred and a tear slid down his left eye.
“Cao, I will take revenge! I will…” Long Ren muttered before mustering some strength to get up and slowly walk towards another door in the room which he managed to open.
That door led to a pool containing extremely hot water. He jumped into it and the door closed by itself.
10 minutes later.
Long Ren came out of the room to meet a worried Theresa who paced up and down.
“Long Ren?” Theresa ran to him and sized him up.
“Are you alright?” she asked.
“I am… ptui” he spat out blood staining Theresa’s dress.
“I’m sorry!” he apologized.
“Are you okay? Your body temperature is abnormal.”
“Mistress, please sever the contract. I know I promised to stay by your side forever. But please, help me.” he begged with a hoarse voice.
“Long Ren, you are sick. What did you encounter? Your skin is pale too. Long Ren, please tell me what happened?”
“Mistress, I promise that I’ll return when I’m okay but please, sever the contract now. I beg of you,”
“How do I do that?” she asked.
“Bite my shoulder. It’s the quickest way.” he said.
He shifted the collar of his robe revealing his shoulder.
“You are already in this much pain. I can’t add to it.” said Theresa in concern.
“I’ll give you as many pearls that you need,” said Long Ren.
“Long Ren, I don’t view you as my money bank anymore. I am willing to sever the contract but not in this way.”
“I’m already suffering. A little bit more pain is nothing. If you really care about me and take me as your Oppa, you’ll do this”
“I… it’s quite awkward for me.”
“Mistress, why are you doing this to me? It’s just a simple thing. What do you take me for? I… I lost my… forget it!” he pushed her down and stormed away.
“Long Ren!” Theresa quickly got up and ran after him but he kept pushing her away.
“Mistress, I cannot hate you. But I’ll tell you this to your face even if you’re gonna punish me. You are an ungrateful lady that is as insatiable as the grave. You are a wolf in sheep’s covering.”he said and finally stormed away, leaving Theresa standing.
Her mouth was opened and her eyes widened in disbelief.
