123 New Home (2/2)
”Jasmine, my immortal sect is called Ten Thousand Flower Valley. It is in a remote province and I only have a few but trustworthy disciples. You'll be safe there, I'll protect you. I promise, it will be an amazing new home. Will you join my sect?” He said earnestly.
”Mmmm, that's much better.” Jasmine said, while still munching on a pork rib, ”I will on one condition. Since I am much older than you, also much wiser and intelligent, naturally I should be the grand sect master.”
”Absolutely not!” Chen Wentian said immediately.
”Chen Wentian!” Jasmine pointed her dainty jade fingers at him, ”Why are you so stingy!”
”It is simply a matter of principle. I created the sect, I am the sect master. You can join as my disciple.”
Jasmine choked on her food with laughter, ”Hah! You? Hehehe, that is so funny!”
Chen Wentian crossed his arms and said with an evil glint in his eyes, ”If you can beat me in a fight, you can the grand sect master. If I beat you, you can just be my disciple. How about it, do you dare to bet?”
”Master...” Wu Qianyu was worried he would end up chasing Jasmine away.
But she didn't have to worry as Jasmine saw the problem the same way as Chen Wentian. Naturally, only the strongest could be the master and the weaker had to be the disciple! If she could make Chen Wentian her disciple, then she could have Chen Mo play with her everyday!
”Agreed!” Jasmine stuck out her hand.
Chen Wentian took her hands in his for the first time and shook it firmly. Her hands were extremely delicate and beautiful, they were small compared to his but held a mysterious energy as his skin touched hers.
”Agreed.”

They didn't want to fight in human territory so they arrived in Red Bamboo Province and headed south until they were at the border between it, Rich River Province, and the wilderness. There were no humans around for thousands of miles. Chen Wentian knew this since all Beast God Sanctum members had pull out of this area due to the brawl between the two factions. Wu Qianyu didn't come to watch them as she had returned to her monster fighting competition. She had been distracted by Chen Wentian for almost two weeks so she had to go and regain her ranking.
Chen Wentian faced off against Jasmine in a desolate patch of ground that was relatively flat with a few rocks and dead trees.
”Are you ready to fight?” He asked.
”Fine, but Momo can't help, and neither can your other critters. And no weapons!”
Chen Wentain agreed and then stepped back ten meters before collecting his blue flames around himself. Jasmine's new clothes mysteriously melded into her body as she returned to her nine tailed fox form. Even in her beast form, she was petite, barely taller than his waist.
Chen Wentian extended his hand and beckoned her to attack.
