Lin Mei and Wang Wuji were travelling day and night to the north.

Of course, they had to pass to several small cities in the way to the Imperial capital.

From time to time, they also camped outside in the forests ;

" wuji, let's stop here tonight to rest. "

" En ... "

Wuji , along the road was dead silent. From time to time he answered, but he was not talkative at all.

That rose suspicions in Lin Mei's heart, why would her father tell her to take care of him and trust him along the way?

But since it was her father's last wish, she didn't dare question it.

Wuji on the other hand was simply following Lin Mei without saying a world, he didn't even glare at her not once this last few days. Of course when they were sleeping Lin Mei kept an eye open in case if he did something to her. But even so, Wuji didn't lay a hand on her.

Of course she was joyful at first that nothing happened, but a small sadness was lingering in her heart. Was she really that inattractive? But then again, she shook her head and didn't bother with him.

Girls in this age were just begining to develop, body and mind. They keep thinking about their beauty, the way they talk change, but for Lin Mei even tough she knew that was going to happen to her, she was unwilling to change.

As to why? the tragedy that occured not long ago, her brother who left with the unknown demon, her father who died while passing her his legacy. She was emotionaly still unstable.

Trying to forget about the past events, she kept practicing the first chapter of the Heaven Sealing Art secretly when wuji was hunting beasts in the small forest. Until some days ago when she finally broke through the 9th layer of the warrior realm and finished the first chapter.

When the user finishs building his new body, the cultivation will decrease by two folds.

That means that right now Lin Mei incredible progress in the martial art will slow down at a pace that even normal people can easly outrank her.

Lin Mei wasn't sad at all, she was excited.

Of course the reason was because now she can enjoy the benefits of cultivating with a perfect body, that also means that right now she can fight against someone who broke through the mortal realm first layer without loosing ! Fighting quantity with quality .

However to her surprise, the Second chapter popped immediatly in her head!

" Unsealing the chains ", cufflinks appeared in both her hands with small broken chains , she was at first surprised, she didn't know how to explain this to Wuji when he came back.

When he appeared , he too was shocked. Apparently the chains were visible.

But what shocked her the most , was the uneasyness in wuji's eyes. He looked like a fearful beast who refuses to go near this chains.

What was this chains for?

Lin Mei couldn't tell him everything so she only told him that it was her cultivation technique without giving details, and he didn't seem bothered by her explanation. But he still kept his distance from her, afraid somewhat.

The first chapter intituled "unsealing the body" was essentially talking about building anew the meridians and the muscles inside the host's body. Making it strong enough to withstand the "side effects" of the technique.

Were this chains side effects? It didn't seems so, but then again this whole book is a secret manual from the ancient times.

The chains were the legacy that was left by the ancestors to the new possessor of the Heaven Sealing Art manual. It seems that the second chapter talked briefly about it, they were simply unbreakable as long as the user didn't use it on someone on a high realm than himself.

The cufflinks and the chains will appear on the 9th layer of the warrior realm, but by reaching the 5th layer of the mortal realm, the user can hide it and make it appear whenever he choose to.

But the chapter didn't end with the brief paraghraph about the chains.

The chains lenght was about 20 inchs (half meter) ; but they could change and become longer as long as the user wishs to.

Lin Mei tried to test this out to see the maximum she can reach, so she went somewhere far from the camp and then began her practice.

She tried to concentrate in her mind until the image of her chains appeared, she oppened her eyes and the chains lenght went from the 20 inchs to 200 inchs in the blink of the eye ( 5 meters, let me know if you like to read inch or meter in the comments ).

After testing out various ways to use the chains, Lin Mei went back to the camp so as to not worry Wuji .

Wuji didn't seem bothered by her absence, in fact he was sitting on a stone with his eyes fixed on the fire.

Lin Mei was convinced that his attitude was weird, she really wanted to help him so she tried to initiate a conversation with him.

" Wuji ? "

But he didn't respond.

" ... "

" Wuji, i know that what happened to our home must have left some really bad memories in your heart. But you have to ..."

She didn't finish her sentence, and wuji suddenly stood up.

His eyes were red as a flame of fire, he roared like a beast with all his might, and then he began punching the stone where he was sitting.

Lin Mei was frightened but she still stood up and tried to stop him from hurting himself, but when her hands tried to reach his back, he turned around and took her by the wrists, then both of them crumbeled in the floor.

Lin Mei was beneath him, she tried to get up but she couldn't muster any strengh.

" Wuji, stop! please get a hold of yourself! "

But wuji didn't listen at all, he was like a mad beast.

" You, you and you're damn brother! If it weren't for you my family would still be alive ! "

" ... "

" Why , just WHY GODDAMMIT! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO TAKE MY PARENTS ! "

Lin Mei couldn't respond to what wuji said, she was feeling depressed and sad. The scar in her heart began to open again.

" I shouldn't have tried to bring up this topic again ... it's my fault " was what she was currently thinking.

Then silently she took his head with her arms and embrassed him withing her chest.

Wuji was suprised at first, he cried madly on top of her, and so did she .

Lin Mei wasn't bothered by him, she felt that this guy was the same one she encountered the first time. For the first time she finally found someone who shares the same pain as her.

And then they slowly began to fell asleep....
