A Tale of Chase and Love s1

Mr. Wen did not see where the fire came from because his eyes were closed. Feeling the intense heat and pain from his hands and feet, he opened his eyes to see the fire burning the ropes to ash.

Did this mean that he was now free or was it a trap? He looked at them suspiciously.

“Quick take off your clothes. Hurry and make sure to tie that cloth between your legs. You must be tired, you need to rest before we continue the other part of the lesson, sir. You see my hands are sore and my sister is dizzy from hearing your screams and looking at your now miserable self, I’m afraid she and I might get sick tonight or even land on the hospital beds, and we have no money to pay the bills. And we could even be your daughters. So please help us with some money for the expenses. If you don’t have all the money right now, you can sign an IOU for both of us. Here’s mine.” Lan brought out a paper from her pocket and Mr. Wen’s eyes nearly fell out when he saw the money.

“Minus the earlier 130, 000 yuan you didn’t pay us earlier, this…” Lan pointed at the figures in the IOU and continued “is the money for our treatment. Think of it as helping the poor.”

Li Hua also got up and walked to Mr. Wen. Then she showed him her own IOU and Mr. Wen was about to faint for real when Li Hua lashed at him with her whip making him too stunned to react.

Only after a few seconds did he fell the pain.

“AHHHHHH” he screamed out in agony.

“Shut up. If you continue, we’ll give you another one with higher figures.” warned Lan.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Forgive me, my daughters,” he begged with tears flowing from his eyes and snot from his nose. He was also sweating heavily. All the while that Lan flogged him he had been unhappy but now with just one lash from Li Hua, he understood that Lan was a rookie and was more merciful than this Li Hua.

Of course, he knew from the moment they met him at the alley who they were but he played dumb and thought he could taste them. After all, men were stronger than women, right? He just didn’t know he’d end up in this situation. Ah, there’s no medicine for regret.

He couldn’t call the police and despite his high screaming all this time, no one came to his rescue so he could only do as they said, to keep his head because he was sure that these two had killed before and that he was worth nothing in their eyes.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

“We are your daughter? In what way do we look alike, huh? I tell you, if you were my dad, I’d have sent you to Yama at the age of 5.” Lan angrily said.

“You made my sister angry. Now I need to teach you a lesson on her behalf.” with that, Li Hua shot several low-grade fireballs at a stunned Mr. Wen.

“This girl can shoot fire from her bare hands?” he thought and looked at Lan but she only responded by shooting fireballs at him also, making his heart nearly jump outta his chest. These two had superpowers. Then, he’s toast!

“Please, don’t kill me. I beg you please,” he begged earnestly. Now he knew why they said he shouldn’t bother with the police, even special forces will not be able to handle them easily.

They had an endless supply of fire in their bodies and he was sure these kinds of girls knew martial arts. He’d really kicked an iron plate this time and was only 2 percent certain that he would leave here with his life.

“Please, don’t kill me. I’ll pay any amount you want, even if I have to sell all I have,” he said frantically, almost running outta breath.

“Okay. We’ll think about it” they said in unison and stopped shooting fireballs at him. The fireballs didn’t touch him but from the heat he felt on the floor, he knew he could be killed by those fireballs.

Li Hua went back to sit on her chair and crossed her long legs. Lan walked to her and began to massage her shoulders.

“See what you caused, Mr. Wen. If you had just been obedient, things would have gone smoothly but you forced us to waste our powers on you. You need to pay.” Lan complained and Mr. Wen frantically nodded.

“Yes, I will pay as much money as you want,” he said.

“Good! But we must still punish you or how can we face our ancestors later. Get up!” Lan commanded.

“Yes, Yes, I’ll do it. I’ll do it.” he quickly rose to his feet and struggled to stand despite the pain he felt all over his body.

“Mr. Wen, you’re too fat. We’ve always been disgusted by that big belly of yours for a long time now. How about you do us a favor and run around this living room for a while? Don’t worry, if you are tired, we’ll give you some special motivation.” Lan suggested, making his knees go soft and he crashed to the floor in a pitiable manner.

“Aiya, the pig cannot stand anymore. What a pity. I’ll have to roast it then,” Li Hua casually said.

“No, No, I’m sorry. Don’t roast me. I’ll stand. I’ll stand!” he begged while trying to stand to no avail. Right now, he wanted to die and be free of all this but at the same time, he still wanted to live and see tomorrow’s sun.

********

Luo Ye kingdom.

Theresa’s house.

Ju Wei appeared with Princess Wang Jiao at the extreme of the room and both saw the two geezers (old Long and doctor Fu Jin) seriously engaged in a drinking competition. The table made of acacia wood was wet with the liquor together with their robes. There were even some that spilled on the floor. Ju Wei shook his head and turned to face a stunned princess Wang Jiao.

“Immortal Pei, why are we here?” she asked.

“To help someone,” replied Ju Wei.

“Who are we gonna help, immortal Pei?” Wang Jiao asked again. Honestly in her imagination, she was thinking they’d go to the skies or someplace filled with rich qi. This place indeed had good qi but where were the clouds and fairy tale stuff?

Pointing at the two geezers who were drinking from two big jars of wine that never seemed to get empty anytime soon, (presumably it’s a storage wine jar) Wang Jiao asked again

“Are we here to help them?”

Ju Wei shook his head and pointed at the bed on which lay Theresa. She wasn’t in a critical condition anymore since the scales and fox fur are no longer present on her body but she still had the black and pink veins that were still fighting, albeit in a slower manner.

“Her?” Wang Jiao asked in shock and Ju Wei nodded.

“She…”

“I know you’re angry but on account of the fact that your hair is back, please help her,” said Ju Wei.

“You… that means you must be a demonic cultivator.” Wang Jiao mumbled.

“No! You’re wrong. You see, my master was trying to resurrect my mistress mother and she won’t let anyone or thing hinder the process. I’m sorry for all you had to go through. Look at her. She lost 5 stages of cultivation for her mum. What is more filial than that?” explained Ju Wei.

“Ok. She lost some cultivation. But why is she like this? From what I know, those things on her face can’t be the backlash of cultivation loss right?” Wang Jiao skeptically asked.

“It is indeed not. You have to enable her to pass through this and I’ll greatly reward you.” said Ju Wei.

“Fine! I’ll help,” Wang Jiao walked to the bed and sat on a chair.

“Lady, even with the veins on your face, your beauty is still blinding. Forget it. On account of Lord Pei, I’ll help you out.”she said before placing her two hands on Theresa’s left hand.

“All living things bear me witness, with vested power of my element, let me help someone lighten up their dreams,” chanted Wang Jiao.

Immediately, her hands radiated pink light which entered into Theresa’s left hand speedily for 3 minutes. Only then did Wang Jiao get up.

“I’m done,” she said. “Where’s the reward you promised me?”

“You did it just for the reward?” Ju Wei asked.

“Lord Pei, three minutes is the farthest I can go for a bad lady like her. I think she deserves it. Heavens are punishing her for her sins. And lord Pei, I want my reward doubled. I’ll leave by myself. I don’t need you to send me off.” said Wang Jiao.

“Fine!” Ju Wei took out a wooden hairpin from his storage ring and put it on her hair.

“This is your reward,” said Ju Wei with a smile.

“You must be kidding me right? I’m princess, Wang Jiao of Cherry kingdom, if there’s one thing I lack not, that’s hairpins. Why give me that cheap hairpin?” Wang Jiao asked unhappily.

“You don’t like it? But that’s what I prepared,”
