Hilda smiled at Zhi Rui question.

"I'm sorry miss, but I'm a mercenary and time is money. I only stayed to watch the show, here's what you wanted."

Hilda gave a thick envelope to Zhi Rui.

Zhu Rui took it on her hands but didn't look at it. She frowned

"If you're not here then it'll be no fun."

Zhi Rui reached inside her waist and took out a letter and extended it to Hilde.

When Hilda took hold of the letter, Zhi Rui acted. She caught Hilda's arm and pulled herself into Hilde's body and forced her lips onto Hilda's.

It was a hot wet deep kiss.

After a minute, they separated. Both with a blush on the face, Zhi Rui smiled cleaning a little saliva from the corner of her mouth with her thumb.

"I didn't think young miss swung this way," Hilde said, staring at Zhi Rui gesture.

Zhi Rui settled her breath before answering.

"I swing in any way you can feel the pleasures of life."

Zhi Rui stared at Hilda's eyes intensely, after while she spoke.

"Xuying, let's go." After calling her trusted maid, Zhi Rui turned away

Hilda stared at Zhi Rui's back while she settled the payment for the room.

What a heartless woman. Hilda thinks to herself in a playful tone.

----------

Zhun Xuying didn't talk the whole way back, She could only think of her current situation.

It's true, she's vicious. But she never had to deal with this level of people.

She feels like, she jumped out of the tiger's mouth, only to find herself, in a wolf den.

It's stupid to believe in the promises of Zhi Rui, but believing or not there's nothing she can do. Zhun Xuying sighed in resentment.

Soon they entered on the main street. But Zhi Rui didn't take the direction of her house. Instead, she went to the center of the marked.

Zhi Rui and Zhun Xuying stood in the front of the beast core's store.

Zhun Xuying didn't find it strange after all Zhi Rui is at the first level,

besides the innate abilities of her body, she needs to refine cores to gain abilities and nurture her own inner core.

they both went in.

While cultivation is common, it's not to the point where the store of cultivation material are full, there are two clerks, the free one immediately went to the two woman

"How can I help?" the slightly fat but amiable clerk greeted.

Zhi Rui didn't bother with formalities.

"I'm General Cheng's daughter, Cheng Zhi Rui. This time I came here to purchase level one cores for my maid, so you talk with her, also she's a complete amateur, so please be patient and solve her difficulties."

Zhun Xuying was astounded, she observed as Zhi Rui went to the counter and boringly flipped through the catalogs.

Zhun Xuying cannot understand this move. Isn't it common sense to keep the people under you, weaker than yourself?

Forget about it, this is an opportunity. I must get ahold of it.

The clerk saw Zhi Rui's way of doing things, and adapted to it, being curt and straightforward. "How can I address you, lady?"

"I'm Zhun Xuying."

"Miss Zhun this is the catalog for level one beast cores." the clerk offered.

Zhun Xuying hesitated before taking the catalog, "H-hmm I didn't form a core yet. I don't know how it works."

"Oh," the clerk answered. "Then I will explain it, miss Zhun can stop me to clear any doubts." The clerk continued.

When you just form your core, the best thing to do is check what abilities were uncovered from your body. That way you can choose a more suitable core. For example, a person might have an innate strong body, then he would have to choose a core that complements his strength ability or since he is inherently strong, he can choose a passive type of beast core to support him.

At level one. Which is the level, you'll be when you form your core.

You can refine one beast core to assimilate one of the abilities left within.

"Wait, how come it gives abilities?" Zhun Xuting asked.

The clerk answered faithfully.

the core is the essence of a living being. the moment your body forms a core you're a spiritual being, connecting with the world, the inner core is the very essence of your being. When a living being dies, his core remains.

inside it is the essence of the living being.

And thus, when you manage to refine it you can feel the attributes of the beast who own the core had.

you can either chose to refine the whole core as nourishment to your own inner core, or you can refine one of its attributes/abilities, making it innately yours, but you have to choose wisely, what kind of abilities you refine, otherwise your future will be doomed.

you can also use the core as disposable, you put it inside your inner core's aperture. but do not refine it, instead, activate it with heavenly energy.

That consumes the essence inside the core so once it runs out it disappears. of course, once you use it that way, you cannot assimilate it nor use it as nourishment.

Zhun Xuying heard all that but was still confused, her eyes unknowingly went to Zhi Rui.

Zhi Rui didn't even lift her head while answering.

"Don't look at me. I'm studying it myself.

why don't you buy a simple one then when the time comes you can choose to refine it as nourishment or take an ability from it. You can also leave it as an active ability, but after you activate it once, you cannot refine it to either nourishment or the skill.

"It is as the young lady says," clerk complemented.

Zhun Xuying didn't know what to do, this chance might not come again in the future.

As if seeing through her mind. Zhi Rui's voice passed through her ears.

"If you serve me well, you'll be rewarded, purchasing cores won't be a problem. Soon it's gonna be recruitment time for the light Sect.

If you come with me, naturally you'll need a certain level of strength, so you can be of use to me. You might not even have to spend your own money to get strong.

And if I spread the news that I'll teach you cultivation, Father will understand that I'm offering you this much, hence he'll be obliged to spend more on your reports. Hell, you can rip him off, you're betraying someone who's giving you a new life, And that's expansive.

Zhi Rui stood up went to her side and whispered.

"you're already in hell might as well embrace the devil, and try to get the most of it."

Zhi Rui then distanced herself and spoke, as if talking to herself.

"Who knows, maybe if you act strongly then you might actually gain freedom and fortunes. But if you try to act timid, that'll be your death sentence.

With Zhi Rui words, Zhun Xuying went into a trance. After some minutes, she finally decided, she pointed at the catalog and exclaimed, "I want that one!"

Zhi Rui looked at the chosen core, and couldn't help being amazed at her choice.
