Corrupt Creations

Seth silently arrived behind Rina, making sure to not alert any of her senses. With his level of cultivation, he could do that as easy as the unconscious process of breathing.

"Ahhh!"

Suddenly, Rina felt two arms grabbing her from behind and lifting her from the ground. She desperately tried to see who was lifting her and tried to use her Mana to escape, but she felt her energy veins were totally sealed. Luckily, she was able to recognize the good smell of that person, a sensation she has been dreaming to feel again on these last few days.

"Seth!" Rina exclaimed and Seth decided to put her back on the floor. She immediately turned around and hugged him. Her excitement at that moment was almost uncontrollable.

"How are you doing Rina?" Seth felt breathless after seeing her face once again. She was beautiful beyond any measurements and every time he was able to see her face, he felt refreshened.

"You're finally back! Thank god!"

"I'm back. Ahaha... Did you miss me?"

"Of course! I didn't think this trip of yours would take that long. I almost started to think something might have happened. Luckily, Palace Master Lan Xue returned some days ago and told Palace Master Yushui, that you would be coming soon."

"Is that so? I missed you a lot as well. There were days that all I wished for, was to see you again or feel the warmth of your lips." Seth suddenly went forward, going on the offensive.

He really missed everything about her, even the intimate contact they had together. Of course, he would've missed the best part... Else it wouldn't be the beast of harassment called Seth; the one Lexi had given many hideous titles already.

Rina wanted to feel it as much as Seth wanted to. She wanted to enjoy his company as much as she could, now that he was back. The time he was far away from her, doing his secret mission, she realized how small were her past worries, when comparing with the hollow sensation his absence caused in her being.

After a warming intimate moment, Seth and Rina separated and he decided to tell her about his future plans.

"Rina, aren't you tired of staying here? I was thinking about visiting Arwen and bring you back to your homeland. What do you think about it?"

Rina's eyes sparkled after hearing his words. She was indeed, missing her mother a lot. The time she spent outside the Elven Territory, made her realize how much her mother was precious to her.

"I want to return too. Mother must be really worried about me now and I don't want to preoccupy her anymore."

"That's good. Then after a few days, were going to return." Seth was talking with Rina, telling her about his adventures and the dangers he encountered, when he suddenly saw the Eleventh Palace Master, entering the palace with a deep frown on her face.

She seemed to be really bothered by something and Seth felt it was a bit off. Yushui was a very serious but calm person and if something was bothering her, it would actually be something that wasn't that simple.

"Rina, I need to talk with Palace Master Yushui for a bit. I will come back in a few minutes."

Rina nodded and watched as Seth went after Yushui.

Seth followed Palace Master Yushui to her office and realized that there was certainly something very wrong with her. She hadn't even realized his presence, until he decided to knock on the door of her office room.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Yushui heard the knocks and asked: "Ruolan? Is that you?"

Instead of Ruolan's voice, Palace Master Yushui was surprised by a male voice; a voice she had heard before.

"Palace Master Yushui, it's me, Seth."

After Seth identified himself, the door opened for him and he entered.

"Seth, you came, just like Lan Xue told me."

"Oh? How is Lan Xue doing? Where is she now?" Seth wanted to see Lan Xue again, to at least understand what had happened back then.

"She seemed to be doing good... Actually, I should be the one asking about what had happened... Why is Lan Xue so different?" Yushui sked while making a strange expression. She was confused by how different Lan Xue seemed to be.

"Different? Different how?" Seth didn't understand, but it should have been expected. Even though he knew that Lan Xue was a cold and unapproachable person prior to their adventure, there wasn't a way for him to know the extent of that.

Actually, Lan Xue didn't like dragging on her conversations and usually tried to say things the shortest way possible. However, this time, she actually sat down to have a chat with Yushui. She even asked if Yushui had any experience with men.

"Well... She was kind of warmer and more receptive..." Yushui replied while observing him.

"Is that so?" Seth made sure to not expose any different-than-normal reaction, but he was inwardly surprised about that.

"Sigh... I don't know what have happened, but it won't change anything. Right now, I have many other important things to do, so please state your business here." Yushui assumed her Palace Master stance and brought them back to the topic.

"You're right. Palace Master Yushui... This might be a be intrusive, but you seemed to be a bit down... Did anything happen?"

Yushui looked towards Seth, but she didn't know why he was asking something like that.

"Why do you want to know about it? It is a matter that concerns the Higher Grounds and I don't think you're the kind of person that usually meddles in other's business..."

"Ahaha... You're right. I came here to tell you that I will be bringing Rina back to the Elven Territory soon, and since I can't help you with anything, I will be taking my leave then." Seth realized he was trying to dive in the matters of the Glazed Lake Sect, what would be kind of improper.

After understanding his position, he decided to leave and prepare for his departure in some days.

He was about to turn around and go away, but Palace Master Yushui's voice made him stop.

"Wait... This might be a restricted topic and something that affects the entirety of the Glazed Lake Sect, but I guess I can tell you a little bit about it."

Seth nodded and sat down to hear about what she had to say.
