127 Side Story: Jasmine (1/2)
”Wrong, try again!”
”Wrong!”
A stern voice echoed through the forest. It kept repeating a similar phrase over and over again for a long time. Until finally…
”Chen Wentian! You bastard!”
A sharp cry startled the birds in the surrounding and they bolted for the safety of the sky. The calm serenity was broken by a dangerous and angry beast!
Chen Wentian laughed as he ran around a large ancient tree, a certain white clothed and petite lady chasing after him. He was trying to help Jasmine complete a full human transformation but so far it was a total failure. She couldn't walk everywhere in a poofy skirt and a large hat all the time or else people would get suspicious. Try as she might, her tails and ears stubbornly remained. He got really bored and finally grabbed the tip of her tail.
He might have given it a slight pinch but to Jasmine it was bloody murder. Nobody touched her tail! He was not allowed!
”Asshole! Stop!” Jasmine yelled, ”I'll kick your ass!”
”Hahaha! Come on then, use those palm arts I taught you. If you can kick my ass, I'll give you a reward.”
Chen Wentian ran into a clearing with Jasmine hot on his heels. He turned, and expectedly, a swipe came towards his head. He noticed with some dismay that it held quite a lot of power and could probably knock him out if it landed.
”So rude towards your master!” Chen Wentian muttered as he blocked at the last moment.
”Noisy!”
They joined together in close quarters combat as Jasmine showed off her newly acquired Nineteen Demon Subduing Palms. She was quite intelligent and learned the entire palm arts in a couple weeks. She still needed a lot of work to master the forms but her basics were quite good due to her divine beast physique.
Unlike with his other disciples, Chen Wentian didn't need to hold back the power of his attacks and he could showcase the full might of the palms to her. He focused on teaching, adjusting his pace to match hers. He used the same moves she did, showing her the correct forms, the rhythm of attack and defense, as well as usage of spiritual energy.
Jasmine had never learned or used any proper martial arts. She had merely used her raw speed and power. But after losing their first battle, she took training seriously and soaked up everything he taught.
She began to wear out eventually as she was not used to fighting in her human form. She still used too much spiritual energy unnecessarily. It was a bad habit from never having anybody teach her for over five hundred years and letting instinct drive her movements.
Still, she did not give up. Fully intent on landing a blow on his smug face.
Sweat began to drip down her forehead. Still she persisted.
Her thin dress gradually became wet from her efforts and became plastered to her skin. Chen Wentian could see more and more of her barely budding bosom with small pink pearls on top. Eventually, it was on full display behind a thin layer of fabric, and it was all just for him! He greedily memorized this timeless scenery.
He pulled his eyes away before Jasmine noticed anything and stopped the bout. ”Okay, okay… you improved a lot in the past few days. As promised, I'll give you a reward. Meet me back at the sect.” Chen Wentian said and flew off.
Jasmine watched him leave in confusion. She looked down at her state of dress and was suddenly in a panic.
