A Tale of Chase and Love s1

She’ll work hard.

Before disappearing, Dorothy told her she’d be able to summon things from her former world which is earth.

If that’s possible, does it mean that one day she might be able to summon her parents here?

Dorothy said anything but Kim Tae Hyung! She just has to work hard to cultivate. She’d suffer any pain for it.

‘See? Long Ren has some other use now. I need him to teach me how to cultivate. Then I’ll be able to summon my parents here just like Han Fei Fei did.’ Theresa thought and a smile finally appeared on her lips.

All she has to do is work hard! She finally decided to have some sleep.

“Just let that silly pet continue his ‘prayer’.”

After 20 seconds she fell asleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~Theresa’s dream~~~~~~

Theresa woke up in a familiar surrounding. She recalled it very clearly. This was the cold palace that she had escaped from.

Why then was she back here?

That evil pet deserves ten thousand beatings by the rod. He dared bring her here just because she refused to break the contract. Theresa swore silently that if she sees him, he’ll be dead meat.

She got up from the shaky bed and wanted to step forward when light appeared in front of her. She was so startled that she sat back on the shaky bed.

What is this light that’s here before her? She was scared especially since Ren was not here. Where did he run off to when she needed him at this critical moment? She feared that her life might be at stake here.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

The temperature in the room then began to drop rapidly. Theresa was almost frozen if not for the necklace on her neck which was gleaming fighting against the intense cold. So Ren left her this and escaped?

No worries so long as she survives, she can always summon him back. She looked at the light before her that was changing it’s blue color slowly to red. She also noticed that the temperature of the room was rising slowly so she thought the necklace was responsible for it.

She began to thank her stars silently. She looked towards her left at the corner of the room lay a scroll and a book. Both were levitating in mid-air and glowing slightly.

‘What is this?’ Theresa asked internally.

She did not wait long for an answer because a voice belonging to someone she does not see replied to her internal question.

“Theresa Williams, I know you are angry that I summoned you here but you have to finish the mission I assigned you. I can’t fully close my eyes to rest if you continue this way. You were in the palace. Aren’t you supposed to deal with Han Chunhua? Instead, you started from Han Ling after running out of the cold palace. You must fulfill this mission for it represents your life. You wouldn’t have been summoned if you had no spiritual roots. You have supreme grade roots and can cultivate once you open your meridians and cleanse your body of the impurities. You must fulfill this mission or you will die. The scroll and book shall be your beginner’s guide. Your pet Long Ren is a Demon Lord feared by every Saint level cultivator. You must treat him well and break the contract at the right time. Remember, fulfill the mission and be free.” said the unknown owner of the voice.

Theresa felt the temperature rise higher than before and it continued to rise with no stopping. The light had disappeared and the temperature kept on rising. She felt so hot and uncomfortable.

“This isn’t a cold palace anymore. It’s a furnace,” she muttered and got down to her feet dashing towards the door.

But it was at that moment that she felt a severe headache and her knees went weak all of a sudden, resulting in her crashing to the ground which was as hot as boiling water. Her cheeks were flushed red and her tears were running down her face.

She held her head in frustration as the room’s temperature kept increasing so that even the bed caught fire along with the scroll and book which were still levitating in mid-air.

Theresa was close to fainting as her vision went blurry.

“Since I can’t make it. Let me just die here. I’ll die. Let me die” she shouted hitting down on the hot floor.

Behind her, a 3-headed dragon snake appeared with his mouth open baring his fangs at Theresa’s back.

The snake’s three heads had only one eye making it 3 eyes which were as large as saucers. One could only say that the eyes were black as there was no other color. This is a divine dragon that has 3 elements- fire, ice, and blade.

It is very close to mutating into a supreme dragon which is the 3rd highest grade for a dragon snake. Now to complete its mutation it needs to eat a human with no cultivation and must be a female. Theresa here, meets all those requirements and so it was very glad to finally have a meal.

Since this girl was in the cold palace, it meant that she had committed some wrong and so if she dies, no one would care a bit about her. He is so lucky today!

He must thank his ancestors for their blessing after mutating. He’ll give this girl a nice and unreachable burial place right in his stomach. Just a little bit closer and she’d be his sacred meal!

~~~~~~~~~~ reality~~~~~~~~~~

Long Ren, against his mistress orders, is sitting on a couch in the living room and eating apples while reading a book taken from the library in the house.

‘Who said one needs to obey? When she’s not here; I can do whatever I want.’ he thought while munchingon the delicious apples.

Suddenly, his left wrist began to glow with red light and he felt pain in the right wrist. He understood what this means. You don’t need to tell him what this represents.

“Mistress,” he muttered before he got to his feet and headed for Theresa’s room. The apple he was eating earlier was now on the floor.

What is wrong with her this time? Can’t she even let him enjoy his apple at least?

~~~~~~~~~

Long Ren reached his mistress room and found out that she was shivering badly. The lower part of her body was cold and the upper part was hot like boiling water.

Geez! When did this happen and how come the danger signal only alerted him now? This mistress of his, even in her sleep she’s still in danger?

To calm her down he’d have to transfer some internal energy into her with one hand and use his low-grade green fire on her. It was super risky!

Any mistake and his Mistress might burn to ashes, or she might end up getting internal injuries which will be very hard to treat. Either way, he’ll also suffer a backlash.

But he had to do something. He can’t be like last time. And also he was sure someone was trying to mess with his Mistress. Who were they and what do they want?

His spatial ring began to glow and the scroll and book flew out on their own accord levitating in mid-air. Long Ren immediately understood.

Mistress can cultivate and so in order to fulfill the mission the deceased Han Fei Fei gave to his mistress, he must be her tutor in cultivation.

If it is so, he’ll accept it. It will also be a way to punish her for all the crimes she committed. Unknowingly, a smile formed on his lips.
