Life Drain System

Chapter 131 - Life Threatening

    Catching the sleeping and injured male tiger, her eyes widen from surprise. Setting the body down, she says. "Do not throw another and just get back up here would you." And this time not letting him answer or do anything, she lifts all the bodies in the hole, including her brothers out of the hole. 

    Once all of them were out, Yue thinks to himself as he looks at 8 of his subordinates laying around him. 'Well that is certainly convenient, sadly I am not strong enough to do that yet. Also, I wonder how she lifted that huge meteor. Either way, if it were not for our ship, as well as the array of this place the meteor probably would have taken the whole place out.'

    Looking around at each of Yueliangs friends, Ai Lan says. "It looks like you friends will need dads help. They are in pretty rough shape. Shall we get going or is there something you need to do here first?"

    "Are they life threatening?" Yue asks?

    "No, well, not yet at least. They all have loads of broken bones, including their ribs on 6 of them. The tigers will not be able to walk due to their spinal injuries, and will not be able to cultivate without dad healing them, as they impact was clearly to much for them to defend against with their weak cultivation." Ai Lan says not with holding anything, as she feels it is best to know the full situation and not sugar coat anything.

    Not wanting to waste anymore time, Yue says. "Then with nothing else that needs to be done here, time to leave. Thank you for doing this sis."

    Thus Ai Lan searches her storage bracelet for a talisman, and pulling one out, she senses someone coming towards them, and asks Yue. "Where you expecting someone? There is someone coming quick."

    Turning to face the direction Ai Lan is looking, he answers. "I am not expecting company."

    Oddly enough instead of choosing to leave the two decide to wait a moment longer to see who it is. As they wait, a figure comes into view, and sensing that he is not hostile, Ai Lan decides not to leave yet, as maybe it is a friend of Yueliangs'.

    A few seconds later, Patriarch Shin stands before them, and says to Yueliang. "It seems you have not forgotten about us, yet you have brought this calamity to our door step. Care to explain?"

    However just as Yueliang is about to open his mouth, Ai Lan says. "How dare you speak to my brother that way. Are you trying to offend the Guang family?"

    Hearing this name for the second time today, Shin mumbles to himself. "What have I done to deserve such unfortune that I meat not one but two descendants of the emperor? Or am I supposed to see it as my fortune that I survived the first encounter already, or would this be the third encounter?"

    Ai Lan quickly comments. "I would say it is your fortune to both meet us and survive. Now how do you know my brother Yue here, and Bao?"

    Thus Shin goes to explain. "Well your brother Bao threatened my entire sect shortly after the meteor strike, which seems to have happened because I decided to take under my wing your brother Yueliang here." Shin replied without honorifics or much respect as he feels he is likely to die for having offended one or more of the emperors descendants.

    Seeing such blatant disrespect, Ai Lan does not really care as she is not here in an official capacity anyway, and it is troublesome. Thus she just says. "Well thank you for taking care of my brother, I will send a gift later for your troubles. Now since we have some people who need urgent care we should get going."

    "Have safe travels your highnesses." Patriarch shin says with a smile, as he is excited to get rid of the bringers of calamities. 

    Yueliang comments happily. "Thank you for your care while I was out of commission. Maybe we will see each other again some day."

    Hearing this makes Shins smile turn forced, but regardless, he says. "One day, maybe."

    With that said, Ai Lan activates the talisman, thus shifting Yueliang, Yin, Shen Hu, Huoli, Victoria, Orslaine, the other 5 and herself back to the room where the gathering happens to be ending right about now.

    Appearing inside the dinning hall, Ai Lan walks up to her father, kneels and asks. "Daddy, there are some injured people and beasts that need healing if you would. I am sorry that it took longer than expected. Things were slightly different than expected."

    "Different how?" Her father asks with his interest piqued, and with curiosity about the half lich laying before him.

    With this, Ai Lan explains what happened. "To sum it up, they were beneath a large meteor that brother Bao attacked them with, and it seems the two tigers were the ones that saved this small group. Anyways, they all are in rough shape as you can tell. Just as we were about to leave we met the man who took in brothers friends who seem to have been taking care of him at the time. Therefore it seems I must send a thank you gift later. Anyways, that about sums up our trip."

    Hearing this, the emperors eyes widen as he asks. "You mean to say those two tigers with their weak cultivation managed to block such an attack and live to this point? It seems my grandson has picked up quite the talents."

    Ai Lan nods in reply.

    With a smile growing on his face, the emperor snaps his fingers. Then just as before, bones mend, limbs regrow, blood flows back into the body clean and proper, the skin, muscle, tissue, and etc heal extremely fast, and even the tattered clothes grows back its missing pieces until it is good as new. Then seeing them healed, the emperor snaps once more, healing the broken cultivation of the tigers as well as reinforcing it a little.

    Seeing that his work was good, he smiles and says. "Well they should be good as new, right as rain now. Anyways, it is probably time we show our guests to their bedrooms right? I am sure they are tired by now from the long day they had." 

    Ai Lan answers. "I will lead them to the guest rooms now, and you can go back to your work or go to sleep daddy. See you tomorrow."

    "See you tomorrow little Ai." The emeperor said before walking off out of the room.

    Seeing that her father is gone, Ai Lan announces. "Everyone please gather over here, I will be leading you to your rooms momentarily."

    With that said, everyone immediately stands and rushes over, as they cannot wait to get into bed. Especially with their curiosity of what sort of bedrooms such a high degree of royalty must have.

    After everyone has gathered, without saying another word she heads for the door while motioning for everyone to follow. Meanwhile Yueliang speeds along to the front to talk to his sister. Once he is by her side, he says. "Hello, so I know you helped me out before, but you wanted something. I would like to return the favor, so if you could tell me what I can do to make it up to you that would be great."

    Giggling, Ai Lan replies. "It is alright for now. How about we just say you owe me a favor. Of course if you are worried that I will ask you something that you are uncomfortable with, you may refuse. What do you say?"

    Feeling much more at ease he answers. "Thank you, I agree. By the way, if you do not mind, could you tell me why you were so excited to meet me? Not that I am complaining, more out of curiosity."

    "Well it is not really a secret. You see, I like to play, but I think it is more or less just an excuse. While I may not be a social butterfly, it is embarrassing, but I want a friend that I can play with and talk to all the time you know. I mean it is nice to hang out with my dad and well my brother, but I am sure you understand the feeling of wanting that person who is on the perfectly same wavelength, you know what I mean right? Or is it just me?" She asks.

    "No, I get what you mean. Hopefully one day I can find that as well. That person who just brightens your day effortlessly, who makes you feel as if everything is easier with them around. The one who you feel you could give your ultimate trust and know they would never break it. Or at least that is what I feel, but maybe it is just me." Yue speaks his mind.

    "It is not just you. Anyways, that is why I was... am excited. To see if you were that person. Of course, I do not know yet, but we will see.." Ai Lan comments.
