YIN-YANG DEVOURER

It was night when a spiritual sailboat began to descend in the middle of a hidden valley... The valley was surrounded by a fog that made visibility difficult for those curious. Even if a cultivator extended his spiritual sense he would be surprised to realize something would block him.

The Spiritual Sailboat slowly began its descent through the fog until it finally landed completely on a platform made of stone. Nearby the silhouette of a person waited calmly for the people inside the boat to descend to the surface.

A ramp extended across the deck of the spiritual sailboat allowing its passengers to descend comfortably, as if it were protocol Natia was the first to disembark from the sailboat. It was normal for guards to do that to guarantee the perimeter of their protectees.

Natia descended and nodded with a smile to the person waiting for them. Followed by Natia, Xiong Mei also descended.

“It has been almost five hundred years since you last visited me…”

“I thought you had already forgotten about me” Said a charming voice that sounded resentful towards Xiong Mei.

“Come on Jena, you know I almost didn't leave the Sect” Xiong Mei said with an uncharacteristically friendly voice.

"And good? “Aren’t you going to give your old friend a hug?” The woman said with her arms open. Ruvan, who had also started to get off the sailboat, could see her clearly and was pleasantly surprised. This woman was a true beauty that could only be described as a mixture of elegance and authoritarianism rarely seen in a single person.

The woman had night-black hair accompanied by a pair of beautiful purple eyes which combined perfectly with her small but beautiful face… Her curves were in the right places with the right dimensions. A tight dress hugged her figure, making her look even more beautiful under the glow of the moon.

“Come on, don't be so cold~” Jena said as she tightly hugged a stiff Xiong Mei who clearly looked quite uncomfortable with physical contact. Xiong Mei just patted the Jena on the back a few times before walking away completely. 

“As stiff as ever,” Jena mocked as she let go of Xiong Mei.

“And you're always so energetic…” Xiong Mei replied with a complaining tone but the expression of affection in her beautiful green eyes betrayed her.

"And good? Where is the boy who became your apprentice?”

“Who was the lucky brat who managed to attract the gaze of the powerful and mysterious Grand Matriarch of the Thousand Desires Sect?” Jena asked as she looked at the figure of Ruvan who had been standing silently in the corner while watching the two women interact.

“This is Ruvan” Xiong Mei said with a slightly proud tone as she introduced Ruvan.

“Ruvan greets elder sister,” Ruvan said as he bowed respectfully. A flirtatious smile formed on his lips as he was the target of the gaze of a beauty of Jena's caliber.

“Oh wow~ The boy sure is handsome.”

“Don't tell me you like young boys now?” Jena asked with a playful smile while teasing XIong Mei. She knew her friend's character better than anyone, but she still didn't pass up the opportunity to play a joke on her.

“Shut up Jena… You know I don't have time to play” Xiong Mei scolded with a somewhat bitter voice. Jena quickly fell silent when she noticed that her friend's mood was darkening, so she preferred to change the subject to lighten the atmosphere. 

“Then you need me to train the boy while pretending that he is my personal disciple… You sure trust me~” Jena murmured with a smile as she walked around Ruvan.

'Mmm, this boy is a real sweetheart... Even I can say that if I were younger I would surely have gone after him' Jena thought ironically while remembering an old rivalry she had had with Xiong Mei when they were both still young maidens.

“That's right… as you well know, I have many eyes watching me in the Sect” Xiong Mei said with an annoyed tone as she remembered the restrictions she had within her own Sect. 

“It seems that Davos is still the same bastard as before ehh” Jena murmured with annoyance as her head filled with different emotions.

“That's right. You know how he is… He won't rest until he finishes what he started. But this is a topic that I wouldn't want to bring up in front of Ruvan” Xiong Mei said through a spiritual transmission to which Jena nodded. 

“I can promise you that I can pass him off as my personal disciple who has been hidden from the world, after all several sect masters have that kind of whims” Jena said with a smile.

 "However…"

“I can't fully guarantee their safety after all you know the situation the Sect is in right now” Jena said with a serious tone. 

She herself knew that the conditions her friend was going through were not entirely simple after all Jena had suffered many injustices from the Main Sect due to her rebellious attitude towards the Grand Patriarch of the Sect.

Jena now not only had to deal with problems outside her sect but also with those within after all, many council elders viewed her position as sect master like hungry wolves. Many of them were surely in cahoots with the Grand Patriarch of the Thousand Wishes Sect.

“I understand… You can use of him however you see fit.”

“Ruvan is more than capable of defending himself… Don't hesitate to test his skill, I'm sure you'll find it more than satisfactory…” said Xiong Mei with a confident tone.

'Hmm I wonder if his prowess in bed can also be tested' Jena thought to herself as she saw the perfect specimen in front of her.

 “Oh wow~ It seems like someone is quite satisfied with their disciple,” Jena joked while internally laughing at Xiong Mei's proud but childish performance.

'Although Mei continues to maintain her cold facade, it is good to see that she still retains that sweet and childish personality that always characterized her' Jena thought with a smile as she saw her friend who was covered from head to toe by a veil, only revealing her beautiful green eyes. Many people would have a hard time deciphering Xiong Mei's expressions through her eyes but to Jena her friend's eyes were like transparent windows.

“Well if that's the case then there's no problem.”

“Are you going to stay a little longer? I wish we could catch up a little longer…” Jena said with a smile but to her misfortune Xiong Mei had to reject her.

“I appreciate your intention but I have already been away from the Sect for too long. If I continue to be absent, Davos may become suspicious,” Xiong Mei said with a bitter tone as she walked towards Jena.

Xiong Mei hugged Jena without warning while whispering close to her ear in a tone that no one present could hear.

'Thank you for always being there for me even when the rest turned their backs on me'

‘I hope this situation is resolved soon so we can return to how we were before,’ Xiong Mei said before releasing the still surprised Jena. Xiong Mei wasted no time and quickly boarded the spiritual sailboat followed by Natia who said goodbye to Ruvan with a slight smile.

'I will be waiting for you at the Sect'

‘Do not disappoint me’

‘And don't sleep with so many women...’

A spiritual transmission filled Ruvan's mind just before Xiong Mei disappeared inside the Spiritual Sailboat.
