12 Chapter Eleven (1/2)

Yu You Lei didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she stared at the shaking fish. The thing was idiotic enough to be sucked into a whirlpool it itself created, making Yu You Lei doubt whether it was actually the majestic dragon she'd seen earlier.

”Explain! Hurry and give me and explaintion! Where did all my treasures go?” Yu You Lei anxiously asked, glancing around to check whether her treasures had suddenly returned.

The fish in the water stopped shaking, and coughed, making Yu You Lei doubt how the laws of nature worked in her world.

It was then she remembered, she controlled the elements and environment in her world.

A smirk growing on her face, she waited another minute to see if the fish would explain itself.

When it didn't, Yu You Lei simply raised her hand, and the water surroundings the fish flew into the air, brining the fish itself along.

”W-wait! Don't cook me!” It began swimming in circles again, irking Yu You Lei to no end.

Yu You Lei just wanted to know where her treasures went! She didn't want anything to do with this idiotic fish!

”Just explain yourself already!” She lost her patience, and would probably cook this fish/dragon creature if this went on. She didn't want to risk injuring it in a moment of anger, though, which was why she was so infuriated.

First of all, the fish might be a dragon, and there was no way Yu You Lei would risk killing an ancient creature in a moment of anger.

The second reason she needed to hold herself back was because of the stupid contract she made with the ring.

It was probably this fish whom she made a contract with.

Hurting or killing it would be the same as hurting herself.

The contact meant they were connected, and if the fish got hurt, then Yu You Lei herself would also be impacted. If the fish were to die, then Yu You Lei would follow it in death. This worked the same the other way round.

The only reason the two were reunited in this life was because it was a soul contract, so unless one of their souls disappeared, they'd probably just reincarnate over and over again with each other for the rest of eternity!

Just thinking about spending the rest of her life with such a pathetic fish made Yu You Lei want to spit out blood.

Seeing the murder in Yu You Lei's:s eyes grow more intense, the fish hurriedly tried to calm her down.

”I-I'll explain, calm down, Mas- Wait, it's Mistress. . . Calm down, Mistress, I can explain!” Its attempt at calming down Yu You Leo seemed to only infuriate her further.

”Okay, okay, fine. . . In your previous life, you never noticed me for several reasons. First of all, when you establish a contract with me, I automatically take your current cultivation level as a base. Each colour rank is considered 1 Grade. When you found me, you were at orange high level, or in that case, Grade 1. At Grade 1, I would appear as a fish, which is why you overlooked my existence so many times, despite me making trouble to get your attention!” The fish was ready to cry thinking about it.

It was actually an ancient creature, and actually had to do such immoral things to get the attention of a young lass like its mistress. . .

”Anyway, with each rise in Grade, I would become more and more powerful, eventually becoming a dragon which you saw just now at Grade 5. The environment in this ring will also grow along with me, and what you see now is still the Grade 1 environment. Since getting the ring, you haven't broken through a single rank, which is why everything remained the same. Anyways, how was my dragon form? Amazing, right? After that, I can grow even more, but I can't seem to remember what I will transfer into.”

The fish somehow puffed up its chest in pride towards the end.

Yu You Lei ignored the last two comments the fish made and stared at it, dissatisfaction clear in her eyes.

She brought the ball of water closer to her, making the fish back away as far as possible.

”So, I must cultivate, and only then will you become that dragon? And, as I cultivate, the environment will become better than it was in the past?” Yu You Lei asked two questions first, wanting to clear things up.

The fish nodded frantically, thinking it would be free from the clutches of the female devil after answering that.
