Li Ming shivered. She tried to free herself out of the tight hold but she was no match to Ruoshan.

After trying for a full minute, she finally gave up.

"Look! I'm doing this for your own good. There is no spiritual energy inside this place. Even if you wait for an entire year, without spiritual energy you will still be same as now. The only way for you to cultivate your powers back is the outside world. Although this spell is risky but it still worth the risk." Li Ming said her words carefully. She was actually right though.

Ruoshan looked at the girl in his arms and just looking at her cute face, his heart melted like wax. He had never felt like this before in his life.

"Fine!" He finally said.

Li Ming's face broke into a beautiful smile at his agreement but his next words nearly made her heart stopped beating. She had expected a threat or something like that but he said something very opposite of that.

"I trust you!" Ruoshan said as he looked at the shocked expression on her face. He finally let her go and sat down on the couch.

Even he was not sure why he said those words. But he was sure about one thing and that was, he meant those words.

"What are you waiting for?" He asked while raising his eyebrow when he saw that Li Ming was still staring at him with a frown.

His words brought her out of the trance. Li Ming took out the box that she had prepared last night and set it on the table.

She took out a piece of glittering black chalk and murmured a spell. After that she drew a rune on the table and put a bowl with Latin words inscribed on it, in the middle of the rune.

Ruoshan silently looked at the girl who was busy with her full concentration on something that was completely out of the reach of his mind to grasp.

Being an immortal lord and a genius in spiritual powers, it was the first time in his life when he was feeling completely clueless about something related to magical prowess.

Li Ming emptied a complete bottle of ice dragon's blood in the bowl. Then she put a single drop of unicorn blood and added a blue colored leaf.

She took out a safety pin to pierce her index finger and added one drop of her own blood in the bowl.

Then she looked at Ruoshan and said, "I want you to channel your spiritual powers to me. Can you do that?"

Ruoshan nodded his head and put his hand above hers and then He closed his eyes.

Li Ming also closed her eyes and felt the extra powers which were boosting her own. She started chanting the ancient spell again and again.

A blue light appeared around the bowl and then it rose above a few inches from the table. The rune that Li Ming had drawn earlier converted into blue colored ribbons and flew inside the floating bowl.

After a minute everything went silent and still. Li Ming slowly opened her eyes and looked at the bowl which was again resting on the table.

Ruoshan heard a loud squeal as his own eyes flew open. "What?" He asked Li Ming who was beaming with happiness.

She picked out something from the bowl and hold it in front of him. As she slowly opened her closed fist, Ruoshan saw the sparkling blue stone in her hand.

"This...?"

Li Ming smiled and said happily, "We did it!"

She took his right hand and put the stone on his wrist. She covered his wrist with her hand and again murmured a spell.

When she retracted back her hand, there was a small blue moon tattoo on his wrist.

"It's done. For next six months, your location is safe. Now you can come with me in the outer world but remember to be within 100 meter radius of me." Li Ming told him in a strict voice.

"Hmm." Ruoshan only hummed softly as he looked at the beautiful tattoo on his wrist.

"When are we going back?" He asked after a minute or two.

"Let's go back now. There's no point in staying here. It's still noon, so we have a few hours before the sunset." Li Ming said as she hurriedly put away everything.

"Hmm. But it will still take us a week to finally came out of the Thundering Peaks." Ruoshan said.

Li Ming smirked as she looked at him, "Let me show you something interesting today. I'm full of surprises."

10 Minutes Later.....

Black Jade Inn

The moment Li Ming appeared inside the inn, all the staff and the Huang family came rushing to welcome her.

"Miss Li, it's been weeks since you last came here. The whole black market was missing you!" Madam Fu said as she took Li Ming to a table and made her sit down.

Then she poured coffee for Li Ming and offered her the cup.

On the other hand Ruoshan was still not able to come out of the shock that he was teleported by a little girl who was still a second level middle cultivator.

He observed the group of the people who were welcoming Li Ming with pure love and respect.

Even the customers looked happy to see her.

He couldn't believe that he had been neglected like that. Not a single soul was paying attention to him.

Although Li Ming had changed his appearance, just to be extra safe, but it still didn't mean that he should be treated like air.

He went towards where Li Ming was sitting and talking with an elderly couple. He cleared his throat as he sat down on a seat opposite her.

All of them suddenly turned towards him and rather than feeling awkward like a normal person, Ruoshan actually felt relieved in his heart. But his face didn't reveal anything and still looked cold as usual.

Li Ming poured coffee in a cup and signaled Madam Fu to offer it to Ruoshan.

"Miss Li, this...Young Lord is.....?" Elder Fu asked curiously.

Ruoshan chocked on his coffee when he heard the old man calling him a Young Master.

'Young Master your a** !'

"Oh! His name is Li Ruoshan. He's from my clan. My father sent him to inquire about my current situation and development. So, he will be staying with me for sometime."

Li Ming told everyone as she looked mockingly at Ruoshan.
