Chapter 57 – Sealed (2/2)

Although a bit scared, Ye Wei opened the training room doors without hesitation.

Expecting to see a fight, Ye Wei was shocked to see the massive Qi surge coming from a gentle figure. There was only one person in the room apart from himself, and it was Lin Zi Yan sitting in a lotus position. She was sitting quietly in the middle of a large carpet.

‘How can she generate energy of this magnitude?’ Ye Wei was first shocked by what was occurring in front of his eyes, and then his face flushed when he took a closer look.

Lin Zi Yan was wearing nothing but a thin silk gown. Damp with sweat; it was almost transparent. Ye Wei was embarrassed and surprised to see this. He couldn’t move nor could he take his eyes off her.

Her flawless skin, her pale and delicate arms, the curves at her chest, the slender waistline, and the muscular but slim legs. Ye Wei could see that her body was a product of years of hard training, and his eyes were drawn by every bit of it.

He couldn’t help himself; no young boy could either.

Ye Wei froze in confusion. He didn’t know if he should leave this scene or not. It was clear that she was in some kind of trouble, but he was also sure that he walked in at a very private moment.

While Ye Wei was pondering, Lin Zi Yan’s moan caught his attention. She looked like she was in great pain, and her slightly loose hair was drenched. Drops of sweat were dripping from the ends onto her body. Aroused by these drops of sweat running down her skin, Ye Wei’s face turned completely red.

As Ye Wei was frozen by the sight, he considered how to apologize when Zi Yan opened her eyes and learned that he had been looking at her barely dressed figure. Suddenly, an intense wave of energy came from Lin Zi Yan’s body and snapped him out of his daze.

Followed by the explosion of Qi, sequences of runes burst out of Lin Zi Yan’s body and started spinning around her. Millions of runes merged in a long chain and formed a purple vortex.

The whirl of runes projected a violet runic pattern onto her. She didn’t look human under the purple light.

After taking a closer look at the whirl, Ye Wei discovered that most of those runes contained massive amounts of energy, and were stronger than Myst stance runes!

It was a mystery to Ye Wei how and where Lin Zi Yan could store that many runes inside her body. This kind of energy would tear one’s body apart if they were below the condensed prime Warrior level. But then a couple of strange looking runes caught Ye Wei’s eyes. ‘Those are dimensional runes! They are only used for sealing!’

It struck Ye Wei that Lin Zi Yan was either a vessel, or her power was being sealed by a sealing stance for some reason. That she was actually much stronger than people believed her to be.

The power surges coming through the seal were filtered and weakened. Ye Wei could not imagine what would happen if the seal was to be broken, how strong would she be.

It has long been apparent to Ye Wei that Lin Zi Yan’s family background wasn’t ordinary, but today was the first time he was scared and intimidated by it. It was becoming more obvious that she grew up around some very powerful people.

Ye Wei hadn’t really known Lin Zi Yan for that long, but he opened his heart to her a little bit without noticing, ‘To be strong enough to match her and protect her.’, This had become his goal after Ye Wei started to get to know the kind-hearted beauty.

This was a wake-up call. Ye Wei learned right now that he needed to multiply his efforts to reach his goals.

“I will not give up!” Ye Wei was determined although he had no idea how much catching up he would need to do.

The whirl did not stop revolving, it suddenly expanded and released an even stronger wave of energy akin a mini-tsunami.
