Chapter 345 - 345: Stepping Stone Of The Future
"Ling Clan of Beijing!"
Eric didn't need to think much of it to understand the meaning of that line as he finally understood the common enemy of all these lost lives in this place.
Since he had been concentrated only on Japan at the moment, he had no idea just who these guys were, or what was their strength, but he still made an oath inside his heart.
One day, in the near future he would most certainly make the Ling Clan pay with their blood for their actions.
He didn't care who was right and who was wrong, that was part of his Martial Path. All he cared about was that the Puppet Clan had helped him and given him a huge benefit.
So even if they weren't his people, they were at least his benefactors, and since he had accepted their offer, he would certainly help accomplish this wish of theirs.
There was no innocent or pure person in this world. Each and every one of us has done something bad at least once in our lives.
.Even more so a family that had enough strength to create a Realm 2 puppet or the enemies that it couldn't face against.
There was no innocent and sinless human being or any other being for that matter, everyone is stained.
So, it felt stupid for Eric to understand who was right and who was wrong in this matter, as the only thing that mattered was benefits and benefactors.
Since he had received the help of the Puppet Clan then he would certainly pick their side and help them get their revenge.
As for being afraid of the power and strength that the Ling family might have, he felt that it was a big joke.
He was planning to go towards the Immortal World, and fight the whole world, so what existence was just an Earthling Ling family.
In his eyes, they were nothing more than another steppingstone for him towards new heights, and he couldn't help to clash with them.
But even though he was thinking like that, it didn't mean that he had any intention of clashing with them without knowing their strength, and their abilities, as he wasn't a suicidal fool.
As this room seemed to be bigger than the others by at least 2 times, he was curious to know what they kept in here, but then something appeared on his mind, it was most probably a medicinal storehouse.
When they were left with no other food, these guys had most probably tried to eat everything they could in desperation, and the herbs in this room couldn't escape their desperation.
To be honest Eric felt that it was a bit wasteful for those guys to eat these medicinal herbs just to clench their hunger.
But thinking that they were desperate and that was the only way that they could extend their already fleeing lives, he felt that it was understandable.
Most probably should he have been in their place he would have done the same thing. In fact, he felt that even those ores and minerals wouldn't have escaped his grasp.
So, he quickly put off any stupid thought that might enter his mind because of it, and then once again appeared in front of the third room.
Without losing time, he quickly took out anything extra from inside his space ring, and then placed the box of diamonds in there, while he left the gold and silver in its place.
There were a few reasons why he took only the diamonds and left the gold and silver in the two storerooms.
Firstly, the gold and silver took too much place, and he wouldn't be able to stuff all of them inside his space ring, as the current one was too small for that.
Secondly, the value of the gold and silver was nowhere near the value of those diamonds despite having a much larger amount, and volume.
Last but not least, he felt that the diamond's value was enough for the moment, and that would suffice for him to start with his plans soon.
As he did that, he soon felt that the blood clone he had sent to receive Ren Jia had fulfilled his duty and was now returning back with Ren Jia in tow.
They were close to the inner entrance of the tunnel, and right now Eric was quite curious about how the Realm 2 puppet would deal with Ren Jia.
Or to be more precise he wanted to know if that white shadow would appear once again, so he quickly got out, and then appeared over the arena where the Realm 2 puppet stood.
Since the puppets couldn't surpass the inner entrance of the tunnel, they left the blood clone and Ren Jia pass inside, and Eric had to control his puppet to pass first, and then Ren Jia.
The moment his clone entered inside, the Realm 2 puppet didn't react, like it knew that the puppet belonged to him.
But the moment that Ren Jia took a step inside, the Realm 2 puppet immediately reacted, as a generic robotic voice was heard,
"Intruder! State your reason for trespassing or die!"
Ren Jia was caught unprepared from this, and she didn't feel much of a threat from that puppet, in fact, she felt like it was the weakest among all of them.
She couldn't feel the presence of her Master either, as she thought that he would be inside, and waiting for her, so she was expecting his instructions.
But the moment 10 seconds pass by without an answer, the puppet seemed to have branded her as an unlawful intruder, and its generic voice was heard once again,
"Intruder! Intruder! Intruder! Alert! Exterminating the Intruder!"
The first three sounds were like an alarm for Eric, the area, and then the city, as the sound increased with each time, the fourth was an emergency signal, while the fourth was towards Ren Jia.
Hearing that Ren Jia couldn't help but furrow her brows, as she thought that this puppet acted only as some kind of alarm button.
The next instant though, she saw that weird puppet have an extremely intense aura, and she felt in danger, even more so when she was that time when she almost lost her life.
If she had to compare the two experiences with one another, then the previous life-threatening experience was nothing more than a dust particle in front of a terrifying carrier.
If the first time she had the opportunity to think about what and how it would happen, this time she didn't even have time for that, as she felt a cold object almost pierce her heart.
"Master I am Sorry!"
Even at such a moment, all she could think about was to apologize to her Master for not being able to serve him well before she died.
A small blazing teardrop left her left eye, as it fell on her cheek, and then towards her neck, as her eyes were closed waiting for death to take her away.
But even though she couldn't see around her as her eyes were closed, she found out that she was still able to think, and she could still feel her heart beating.
She had thought that she had just died that quickly and that she was unable to understand how she died, but she felt no pain.
The first option was that she had died without pain, but then feeling her heartbeat made that thought disperse, as to how would she die if her heart was still beating, and she could still think.
That didn't make any sense to her, and probably wouldn't make sense to anyone else, as an expectation started building inside her heart, as she tried to open her eyes.
Surprisingly she was able to easily open her eyes and look in front of her as that puppet was standing in front of her, with its hand turned into a katana, and its tip right at her heart.
The tip of the katana had passed through her clothes, but it hadn't touched her silky-smooth skin, as it was trapped by two fingers.
Following the hand behind the two fingers, then the arm, the shoulder, and finally the face of the man that had blocked the tip of that katana she couldn't help but jump in his arms.
She was so happy that she forgot all her grievances at that moment, she didn't care whether why or how what happened had happened.
She was just extremely happy to have survived and have been saved by her Master once again. Her lips quickly found his, as her body was rubbing against his without shyness or any other obstruction.
Eric didn't seem to mind her advances as he quickly dispelled his clone, and then ordered the puppet to walk back, and guard the area, as he followed the advances of the beauty in his arms.
Neither of them seemed to have the intention of breaking their kiss, despite the fact that Ren Jia was slowly losing her breath, as a trace of saliva was formed between the two.
Eric didn't stand on ceremony either, as his hands started running through her body, touching and rubbing every nook and cranny, making Ren Jia unable to contain her moans.
Slowly the whole arena was conquered by the passionate, and blazing moans of a beautiful lady, and a handsome man.
When they finally gave release to their feelings, and emotions of the moment, Eric took Ren Jia in a princess carry and sent her towards the City Lord Mansion.
When finally Ren Jia was unable to bear his attacks and fell asleep tired, Eric quickly started to set up a small network inside the Nightless Stone City, and make contact with the outside…
