《Heavenly Will》Chapter 28 - Extreme Yin Body
Advertisement
Before anyone could say anything, the black clothed man turned towards the three men group, his tone was cold, “Why are you still here?”
Tao Kun face contorted in an ugly expression, however, to everyone surprise he beckoned to the two middle aged men and left without saying a word. His head was lowered as he tried to avoid looking at the black clothed man.
Old Lan smiled lightly towards Tao Kun’s action. After all, the later was a symbol master to, he must have sensed something from this mysterious man.
To the side, Jia Xinyi was still absent minded and seemed as if she was pondering something. The strong feeling of familiarity she felt towards this person didn’t faded but grew stronger.
They watched as the three men group left the room.
“This sir, how may our Jia Auction House help you?” Old Lan smiled at the black clothed man after inviting him to take a seat.
…
Tao Kun and the two men walked out of the building with dejected faces.
“Sir Tao, why do we have to leave like that, who is that man?” The tall and lean middle aged man asked.
Tao Kun shot the man an annoyed look before speaking, seemingly to himself, “I need to send a message to the sect, that man may be the rumored hidden expert.”
“That man is the hidden expert?” The two middle aged men faces turned grave after hearing Tao Kun’s words, the lean man continued, “Then it’s true? But why would such an expert be in Tianlong City?
Tao Kun frowned. He thought back to the sect master’s words. Back then he was warned many times about some hidden expert that lived in the Tianlong City. He was told to send word to the sect immediately if he were to meet someone like that. However, he was still not convinced. What kind of expert would hide in this backwater place. Even if that was the case, he still didn’t believed that this so called expert could contend against their Crimson Pavilion.
What a joke. What kind of existence was Crimson Pavilion? It was one of the four overlords of the Divine Wind Empire. Who would dare to stand before them in this empire.

What astonished him even more was the second person he was warned about… Qing Yun. Even now he felt indescribable feeling towards this name. If there is a young man named Qing Yun in Tianlong City you are to kill him immediately! Those were the sect master’s words. His face at that time was even more grave than when he spoke about the hidden expert. Tao Kun was perplexed, he couldn’t understand why his sect master would be wary of some hidden expert and even more so of some Qing Yun.
In his eye, no one could contend against their Crimson Pavilion. However, he still had his orders and had to act accordingly.
He turned towards the rough looking middle aged man that hasn’t spoke a single word till now, “Qing Guo, what about that brat Qing Yun, I told you to kill him, why haven’t I heard any news about this?
Qing Gou showed a meek expression which was quite hilarious seen on his rough face, “Sir Tao doesn’t have to worry, I already sent my men, however that brat didn’t took a step outside of Su Clan in the last days. Once he does my men will make sure to end his life.”
“You have one month till the seniors from our Crimson Pavilion will arrive, make sure to take care of it till then!” Tao Kun spoke with a cold tone, the was a hint of disdain in it, he then turned towards the lean man, “Xiao Hai, send your men to, I don’t care if you have to annihilate the Su Clan, I want that brat killed in the next month!”
The two men looked at each other and saw the doubt in their eyes. They couldn’t comprehend why Tao Kun would pay so much attention to Qing Yun. They knew about the incident that took place at the Xu Ya Inn and were astonished by it. Even more so for Qing Gou as he knew that Qing Yun should be a cripple. He could be considered a genius in the Tianlong City but in the eyes of the Crimson Pavilion he shouldn’t amount too much.

“Mn, let’s get this out of the way first.” The black clothed man said before waving his hand and taking out two jade bottles, “I want the Jia Auction House to help me sell these.”
“Haha, this is our job after all, it won’t be a problem!” Old Land laughed and reached for the two bottles, however his expression changed once he took a closer look at them. He waved his hand and the two serving girls away.
Taking out the lid of one bottle, he took a sniff before he did the same with the second bottle. At this moment his expression had already changed several times.
Jia Xiniy was watching this scene from the side with wide eyes. It was the first time she saw her grandfather act like this because of some pellets.
After a while, Old Lan put the bottle back on the table before looking at the black clothed man, “Mister, these pellets are to precious to be auctioned in the Tianlong City, if mister doesn’t mind our Jia Auction House is willing to buy them. Of course, we will offer you a satisfactory price!”
“En, I’ll leave it to you then,” The black clothed man nodded than continued, “Now then, I think you have something to ask me?” His tone was very relaxed and amiable.
Old Lan glanced at Jia Xiniy then asked the black clothed man with a serious tone, “Mister, do you know of my granddaughter condition? Is there any way it can be treated?!” His body quivered. After so many years he may have finally found a cure for her, even with his many years of experience he still couldn’t keep his cool.
Jia Xiny, however, sat to the side with a calm expression on her face.
“Indeed, I happen to be knowledgeable in that regard,” The black clothed man chuckled then continued, “I came here today because my disciple spoke of something interesting that he witnessed. Still I never thought I’ll see an Extreme Yin Body in this secluded place!” His voice contained some astonishement at the end of the sentence.
Old Lan’s face showed great excitement. Although he never heard of this Extreme Yin Body it was still the first time when someone could identify his granddaughter condition.
Jia Xinyi on the other hand reacted more to the mention of said disciple, though even she didn’t know why.
The black clothed man continued, “However I don’t see why would you want to get rid of such a great cultivation resource!” He didn’t pay any heed to the two astonished people and continued, “I see that this lass’s life force has been eroded by the Extreme Yin Qi. If nothing is done she won’t live past thirty years. However there are many ways to resolve this without getting rid of the Yin Qi.”
Old Lan was astounded. It was the first time he heard that Jia Xinyi condition could be beneficial to her. She was seen by many doctors already and no one could do anything about it, but now this person said that there are many ways to cure her!
He tried to keep his composure and asked, “Then, Mister, are you willing to help us with this matter? If you can cure my granddaughter I will reward you greatly!” Old Lan voice lacked any confidence. At this point, he already believed that this man was an expert much stronger than any he has ever seen. Just the way he dissipated the Yin Qi with his voice alone left him speechless.
He didn’t know if he could take out something that could please this man. However he couldn’t miss this opportunity, no matter what he had to get him to treat his granddaughter.
“Unfortunately, I can’t remain in this place for too long. I’m afraid there won’t be enough time to treat her,” The black clothed man said and immediately saw Old Lan’s expression sank, he then continued, “However, you don’t have to worry. While I’m not able to help you, my disciple will stay a period of time in this city. If you wish to cure your granddaughter you can go to him.”

Please note: the Sexual Content tag is there due to a single brief plot-relevant scene, which has a warning at the beginning. For other details, read the full description below. Rating breakdown, since that should be public info: 5 x 5*, 2 x 4.5*, 1 x 0.5* During a blackout, a frail and ragged old woman stops to ask for a glass of water from a backyard barbecue party. Given a good supper instead, she looks around the group, and tells them, "Be who and what you truly are." Days later, seven of the people from the barbecue find themselves drawn into a trap laid by a pair of wizards and their accomplices, who kidnap them into a bubble reality. All seven, who have known each other all their lives, are informed that they are not in fact entirely human: they have active fae blood, due to a series of conditions culminating with the blessing of the elderly fae woman. The transformation into fae form comes as a shock: all seven, whether originally female or male, find themselves now unreasonably beautiful women. More urgent even than that, though, is their captivity. Getting back to the real world is a higher priority than this metamorphosis that rapidly begins to feel natural... but this is only the first step, as the diverse types of fae blood they carry begin to surface. With no resources except themselves, how can they escape this prison? If they succeed, how can they possibly reclaim their lives? Just how many other faelings have been kidnapped, anyway, and what happened to them? And is there a way to make sure that their captors never put anyone else through this? Back in the real world, Kayla, who learned long ago to trust her gut instincts, is absolutely certain that something is very wrong. The pattern in the list of missing friends is easy to spot, but makes no sense at all. Then a young woman turns up at the backyard gate who knows more than she should, and even though her explanation makes even less sense, every instinct tells Kayla that Riley is her only way to get them back. If they're not quite what they were, well, that's a bridge to cross later... Just a little note: I'm a big believer in endings that are upbeat but not candy-coated, and not a fan of grim-and-gritty or of glamorized violence. These are adults in a difficult situation. However, no one gets raped, and the physical violence is, all things considered, fairly minimal. There is some harassment, sexual and otherwise, and also some mild restraint and mild verbal abuse. Complicating factors are generally wizardly or fae in nature. If I need to warn you about gender in this being all over the map, some of it reality-based rather than fantasy-based, highly diverse sexuality, or that there is (especially later) some indirect fetish/BDSM imagery and honest character discussion, then you probably should just avoid everything I write. :-) Also available on Scribble Hub.
