Chapter 279: Defense Against The Demons 6

A New Quest Part 6

/*unedited*/

The figure of Shin Jiao walked inside the room towards the side of the huge royal bed. He had been standing by the door for a while and heard what the people have been discussing.

He heard the doctor talking about a flower, which has gained his attention.

Suddenly the voice of the Black Dragon echoed through his mind.

"His soul is damage because of the Shadow Void. Actually that creature did this to make it easier for it to extract both our souls from inside that young man. Since his soul was damaged, then his will is now weakening. The Golden Dragon's soul would automatically be released from the prison of God's blessing after a few months, killing that young man in the process. Then the Shadow Void would absorb his soul along with the Golden Dragon, making that Shadow Void stronger… To prevent this, he needs the Soul flower… The Soul flower can fix his broken soul and regain control of the seal."

When Shin Jiao heard the words of the Black Dragon he immediately decided.

So without a second thought, he volunteered to help in this situation.

Well, the reason for this is because the Black Dragon soul is already in his mind dantian.

"I am willing to help. The crown prince is not responsible for this as he was possessed by the Shadow Void. So, in his place, I will do the errand." Shin Jiao walked beside the princess while looking at the unconscious Li Yan Xi.

"Master Shin… this… you've already helped us a lot. We… we can't trouble you anymore than we already have." The crown prince immediately said.

The people around the room were quiet as they are all in deep thought.

"You need the Soul flower, right? That is one of the missions that were originally given to me. But since I have found another way to create a detector, then I will just get that flower."

Shin Jiao's expression became serious at this time. This is because the Black Dragon said something.

"Haha… the Soul flower is one of the ingredients you can use to fix your dantian. Besides that, you also need an infant soul beast's flesh. With these two and some common herbs, I can help you grow a new dantian. Although it would not be as powerful as your old one, it's still rather better than this 'thing' inside you."

They were all convinced by Shin Jiao of this mission as he began to prepare.

Back at the academy, Shin Jiao called Ai Ji and Tong Lei and gave them some instructions and some blueprints to advance their work.

Qian Li gave her instruction to the rest of the group who are staying in the academy as she too prepares to depart with Shin Jiao.

When Shin Jiao visited his mother Aye Muyan and the rest of his family in the city of Wu, they were all against him going.

This is because the Soul flower can only be found at the boundary of the cultivation land and Beastia. They knew of the danger in that place so they are unwilling to permit Shin Jiao in going to that place. As they were informed the Soul flower can only be seen in a place with thick yin Qi. So the border between the cultivation land and Beastia is one of those places.

That place is where millions of cultivator armies and beast clan members died. With the number of corpses buried in that place and the thick blood stench, it is the best place where soul flowers would bloom. However, since it is a place bathed in blood and much resentment unknown creatures might be living there.

But Shin Jiao is unfazed because of the Black Dragon words. If he can regain his dantian again, it would be a great blessing for him. So now, Shin Jiao is very excited to find a Soul flower.

Not only can he help the 2nd prince, but he can also gain something for himself.

"We will set up tomorrow, are you prepared?" Shin Jiao asked Qian Li who is currently sitting beside him on the terrace.

This is Shin Jiao's new house inside the Jiao estate. This villa was constructed exclusively for him.

"Yes, master… I'm… I'm excited to be traveling again with you master." she said with a smile.

Upon noticing her smile, Shin Jiao blinks his eyes unconsciously as if he was entranced by her beauty.

"Damn, this woman is really beautiful." Shin Jiao thought.

Right now, against the backdraft of the moon, the silver hair of Qian Li made her look like a goddess who has descended from the heavens and stayed beside Shin Jiao. Plus her sweet scent which would occasionally grace his nose, made Shin Jiao truly feel that his life was not wasted upon coming to this world.

Qian Li already noticed the changes in her master's gaze towards her, and she actually likes it. It has been a long time that she had a crush on him. If her master would ask for her tonight, she would not reject it.

"Wait… will he ask for me?... tonight?" she thought as suddenly a red blush appear in her pretty face.

The sudden awkward silence made Shin Jiao feel uncomfortable.

"Umm… how… how was your stay in the city? Did you like it?" Shin Jiao diverted his mind into something.

This is because he didn't know if he can control himself anymore if he would look into her already blushing face.

"Yes… this city is nice and peaceful… Umm… master… Did… did you miss me… I mean us... when you were alone in this place?" Qian Li's expression suddenly changes as she didn't expect to have a slip of a tongue and her heart began to race.

Upon hearing this, Shin Jiao showed a contented smile.

He knew what's in her heart, but right now he could not act upon his thoughts as he is still feeling conflicted.

He would resolve the problem with his return to the Shin county then deal with his feelings towards the two women. That way he can hit two birds with one stone.

With her question, Shin Jiao just nods his head in agreement.

The conversation between the two didn't escape the ears of a young woman who stood behind a door. Within her eyes, two streaks of tears suddenly appear. She already knew that she and Shin Jiao are impossible because she notices the way her master treated her.

With a heavy heart, she stealthily walks away.

Unknown to the young woman, Jie Yi who just entered the place, saw the young woman wiping the tears from her eyes.

When she saw this scene, she can't help but sigh.

Jie Yi knows the feeling of her friend Jiyi towards Shin Jiao, but she is helpless to help her.

"It seems that being too outstanding would always attract many women or men towards one's self." Jie Yi muttered as she stretched her neck towards the two figures standing outside the terrace.

She decided to not disturb them and turn around.

…

The next day after completing their preparation, Shin Jiao and Qian Li boarded the small airship that Shin Jiao took out from his spatial tool.

This is the basic airship he used upon completing the mission he had from the academy. However, he had already modified this airship to be like a small passenger plane. He also installed a simple short-range radar-like thingy in it so that he would not worry about any ambushes and unexpected attacks.

Shin Jiao decided to not let anyone know that they are leaving because he is bad with goodbyes. But once they went out of the city, above the wall a line of people stood there in attendance.

The two were dumbfounded upon seeing these people.

Unlike most of his missions, this one is very special, because this talks about the famous 2nd prince's life. Plus this involves even more danger and many things are on the line.

Although they didn't want Shin Jiao's life to be in danger, they also knew his ability to survive any dangerous situation. So they are all here to bid the two farewells.

Aye Muyan, Jiyi, Jie Yi and her two children, the princes of Wu, some of the researchers and student assistants, Ai Ji, Tong Lei, the women who survive the Nian clan warship attack, his friends when they were attacked by the zombie horde and escaped, and even the king of Wu stood there and waved his hands along with the others as Shin Jiao's airship slowly flew away.

The people that are not in the crowd are the princess Yun Bo Xi and the crown prince of Xi.

Shin Jiao felt a warm feeling spreads through his heart as he saw this scene. Although he wanted to leave in secret, he didn't expect that his plan would be exposed to these people. But still, this situation is not bad.

"I feel like they are waving their farewell because they are expecting me not to return." Shin Jiao muttered as he smiled sheepishly.

"Master, please don't say those inauspicious things." Qian Li reprimanded as she suddenly felt Goosebumps in her arms upon hearing her master's words.

"Hehe, just kidding. Who am I? I'm the great researcher master Shin, right?"

As the airship flew farther, the group within that wall slowly dispersed.

After everyone was gone a single figure slowly walks out from a dark corner while looking at the slowly vanishing airship on the horizon.

"Do you think you can save him? I won't let you… if he dies, then I will blame it on you… you will be my scapegoat. Hehe…" the man said while wearing his hood.

The sinister smile on his face can make one feel a dark evil aura seeping from within his body.

As that person turns around and left, someone saw him and showed great shock on her face. This woman is Qilin Xiemen, the woman who had a crush with the old Shin Jiao but harassed by him hence her clan chased him to death.

She went to this place because she is one of the admirers of the current Shin Jiao who has his name already spread and known everywhere in the city.

"That is the crown prince of Xi? Why is he hiding?" she muttered.
