100 Chapter 100
"So what do you think, could we be allies?"
Xiao asked, the situation had now defused itself and Valencia was back to how she is, she nodded her head to his question,
"Indeed, I see more worth in our collaboration, since you know the truth, it will be much easier for us to work together"
"That's true"
Xiao agreed with Valencia, feeling a bit appreciative of how she's able to grasp the situation and change according to it,
"Since we are 'allies', do you want my help with your sister? I could help you now for a lesser 'price'"
"No need, I have my own ways for it"
Xiao replied with a stern voice to Valencia's offer, who didn't fight back, knowing what Xiao possessed, with it maybe he might be able to get his hands on something that might help his sister, Valencia even under her growing calculating mind, felt a small hinge of interest for the boy in front of her, for the first time in her life, a mystery that she couldn't see through appeared and her innate bloodline desire roared to find more about the secret the boy in front of her was hiding.
Xiao who felt her gaze, felt his body shrivel up from Valencia's invading gaze, he felt as if she was just waiting for the right chance to catch and cut him up for his secrets,
"Please withdraw your gaze it's really creepy"
Xiao spoke with a disgusted expression, making Valencia's eyes and brows twitch, her bloodline that granted her the greatest beauty felt offended, and for a moment she felt the desire to remove her veil and see the smug boy's stuck-up expression but just as that thought came up she suppressed it, trying to hold her feelings as she tried to be herself.
It was then that the door to the room they were in was knocked,
"Young Master, you have a visitor"
The servant's voice was heard from the other side,
"Who is it?"
Xiao asked,
"It Li Lun, young master's fiancee"
"Li Lun?"
Hearing the servant's words Xiao was surprised but he soon broke out of his thought as he replied,
"Let her in"
And just as his words were heard the door to the room opened and a girl in a wheelchair came in, the current Li Lun was miles different from how she was in the past, the three months changed her completely, she no longer has her dead eyes focused to the ground, her eyes no longer having their dark circle.
The aura around her was now much more lively and strict, her expression was much more commanding and calm, and she gave off a more authoritative look, even in the wheelchair she looked more charming, and the clutches of depressions that had threatened to sink her disappeared,
"This is a surprise"
Xiao spoke, as he walked up to Li Lun, these months have truly made him see Li Lun as a close friend, he didn't develop any feelings for her, after all, she is still a child, and the case of Yurou was something that only happened due to a glitch of fate that brought together the past and the present into a link that created a future that shouldn't exist,
"Well I missed you"
Li Lun spoke, her face breaking down into a blooming smile, while a hint of blush adorned her face, the other thing that changed was the fact that Li Lun no longer tried to hide her feelings, she made use of every opportunity to show that she was Xiao's fiancee, truly she was growing into a more headstrong and refined woman,
"Seriously you are getting better and better at making me speechless"
Xiao replied, to this Li Lun just smiled, she actually had a deeper reason for coming and that was because of the rumors she had heard, she came precisely for Valencia! by now she was the talk of the town, everyone knew about the child whose beauty even without being seen is said to be otherworldly.
And this created a small sense of danger in Li Lun's heart, hence she rushed to Xiao and she was right! he was indeed talking to the very girl alone in a room all alone! Li Lun quickly 'focused' on the other person in the room, while she couldn't see, she could still tell the 'aura' of it and just one 'look' at Valencia told Li Lun that she was special and more importantly......dangerous.
While Li Lun gazed at her intensity, Valencia looked back at Li Lun with a deep surprise filling her eyes, she was able to peer into Li Lun's fate and see what others couldn't,
'A world bending fate!'
Just Li Lun's talent was maddening and her fate complimented it too, there was no doubt that she would grow up to be an expert that could affect the cosmos as a whole,
'What the hell is up with this lower realm?'
This time Valencia was truly shocked, just meeting someone of Xuanyin's talent is rare now adding Li Lun was making things messier, after all, they weren't like heavens chosen one for the position of Heavenly Immortals, where they would grow from nothing to everything, no they were just normal mortals fighting against the fate of death,
'And both of these girls are related to him'
Valencia's eyes narrowed when her thoughts reached there, two people with such talents being related to one is rare, this would mean that the related person itself should have a fate that would affect everything as a whole, and this is also where Valencia came to realize that even she was now in a way related to him, her eyes focused on Xiao, now deep in her eyes a gleam of light flashed,
'Just what secrets do you hold?'
For the first time, she was truly curious, curious about the fate the boy in front of her holds,
'His fate might affect the cosmos as a whole, keep an eye on him'
Adria's voice was heard in Valencia's head, who agreed with her master's notion and due to this innate true desire of hers, something hidden deep within her soul clicked, something which even she nor her master was able to see, something which didn't exist in the line of fat before or after.
After it clicked destiny started to change for the girl named Valencia, what it would result in, has yet to be seen....
"Darling, who is this?"
Valencia spoke in a coquettish voice, while a light of mischief flashed in her eyes, this was something she had yet or shouldn't have gained. Valencia's words surprised Xiao, Li Lun, and even Adria,
'What the fuck just happened?'
Curiously the three other people in the room had the same thought for three different yet similar reasons.
