Deal With The Devil [Dropped]

C8. Continuous Breakthrough

Waking up with the beautiful Nuo Ling in her hands, Abigail rubbed her temples tiredly and started recounting what happened last night. When her memories reached the part where she kissed Nuo Ling, Abigail froze like a statue for what seemed to be forever, her entire face paled by several shades as she looked again at the woman beside her. Her terrified experssion lasted as long as it came though as Abigail quickly calmed herself down.

With a wave, 'Primordial Chaos' gathered around hers and Nuo Ling body, materialized a completely new set of clothes for both of them. It was around this time that Nuo Ling also woke up, her face contorted in pain when she tried to stand up, but due to her numbed lower-part, she fell toward Abigail, crushing the little devil under her weight.

[I know it feel good, dear, but don't you think it's a little too soon for another round ?] - Abigail said with a smirk, this small joke of hers earned her a glare from Nuo Ling though. But due to her red face and shy expression, this glare didn't scare Abigail at all, not that she'll be scared even if Nuo Ling did use her normal expression anyway.

Sighing tiredly, Nuo Ling gaze lingered on Abigail for awhile and she said, her voice held a hint of sadness. [There goes my job...] - Lifting an eyebrow up, Abigail bursted out laughing uncontrollably, if not for Nuo Ling who was almost two times her size laying on top of her, Abigail would have fell down to the ground. [You have a god as your mate and you still want to be a small staff in the Merchant Guild ?] - After that small fit of laughter, Abigail finally managed to get this question out of her mouth.

Rolling her eyes, Nuo Ling replied, her voice full of sarcasm. [Of course ! Unlike someone who doesn't even need to eat or sleep and can just create things using her power. I'm just a normal human being and i need money to live.] - Abigail has just opened her mouth to say something but she was immediately blocked by Nuo Ling. [And i don't want to leech off of you either. It wouldn't feel good to spend someone else's money, not to mention i'm also not that kind of woman.]

Smirking a little, Abigail responded. [Who said anything about that ? I just wanted to ask do you want to be hired by me or not ? I actually buy a land to open a small coffee shop and haven't had any candidates in mind for the waitress role yet.] - This new made Nuo Ling eyes brighten, with this not only could she stay with her beloved, she also doesn't need to worry about others calling her leecher in the future.

All would be perfect if not for Nuo Ling inability to understand Abigail, and before she even realized it, her mouth already blurted out. [Why ?] - As if knowing everything she wanted to ask, Abigail replied. [Why would i create a shop if i can have the entire empire if i oh-so wanted ?] - This time Nuo Ling did not respond, she just looked at Abigail with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, waiting for an answer.

[It's because spending money that you made using your own hands is way more fun. Beside, believe it or not being the strongest being in existence can be quite boring sometime.] - Unbeknown to Abigail, this answer of her confused Nuo Ling even more. I mean, how can being the strongest boring in anyway possible ? But there were many strong and eccentric people in the world so Nuo Ling didn't dwell on it too much, she decided to push the thought to the back of her head.

When Nuo Ling turned back, she was greeted by a smiling Abigail with the capital map in her hands. She was pointing at a piece of land on the map and it didn't take Nuo Ling long to figure out what Abigail wanted. Nodding, Nuo Ling went back to being all professional, she told Abigail the price and Abigail soon found out that this piece of land certainly wasn't cheap.

After they finished all the papers needed, Nuo Ling walked out just to be stopped by Abigail. [Wait a minute, dear.] - Her hands that were waving, creating strange signs didn't stop in the midst of saying this, in fact she even accelerated. When it reached the part where she acted as if she was pulling something, Nuo Ling could feel a slight resistance in her body, then suddenly, a black liquid substance flowed out from her skin.

Her newly made clothes were immediately dyed black, this felt extremely uncomfortable for her, as if her whole body was restricted by something, she couldn't move normally at all. Before this substance could turn solid, Abigail quickly willed her power to wrapp around it, and like a hungry beast, the 'Primordial Chaos' greedily ate the substances away.

Nuo Ling body returned to normal in less than minute, but there were many obvious changes. Her skin became more tender and whiter than before, while her body felt much lighter, it was as if she had just shed away a heavy boulder. No matter who, male or female, one natural scent will always smell bad even after they had washed their marrow, but Nuo Ling has this rose-like fragrance instead, which confused her greatly.

After a quick check up on her body, Nuo Ling also found out that her spiritual veins have been upgraded to a whole new level on par with the so-called geniuses, while her cultivation just directly broke through 'Nascent Soul' stage. [Wha-What did you do ? How did i...?] - She looked at Abigail as if she was looking at a monster. Abigail quickly tucked away the smug smile on her face, feiging ignorance even though she already saw the joys in Nuo Ling eyes. [What ? You don't like my gift ?]

Like a tiger, Nuo Ling pounced on Abigail and gave her a passionate kiss. She had always wanted to be a cultivator but her family circumstances and her natural talents didn't let her. And so although she was very beautiful, Nuo Ling couldn't find a fitting suitor due to her crappy talent, she was a little bit over twenty-three years old and had just broke through to 'Body Strengthening' third stage, even a rogue cultivator was said to be better than her by many times.

Now that she suddenly broke through to 'Nascent Soul' stage, of course she would be happy. After raining kisses all over Abigail face, she hugged her while rapidly saying 'thank you' and she even has tears in her eyes. Returning her hug, Abigail hand kept stroking Nuo Ling back but she didn't say anything, she didn't want to ruin this beautiful moment.

[But how can my cultivation suddenly went through the roof like this ? I don't remember seeing you do anything to me other than upgraded my spiritual veins and washed my marrow.] - In the midst of her happiness, Nuo Ling blurted out the question that has been on her mind. Hearing this, Abigail almost bursted out laughing, then she said with a perverted face. [Are you sure i didn't do anything else to you ?]

A blush crept itself on Nuo Ling face as she finally understood how her cultivation made so many improvement in just one night. The two shared some intimate time together and went out of the private room. But when they came out, Nuo Ling was once again surprised, everything hasn't change one bit compared to last night. It was still dark and the staffs were the same as last night. [Oh! I forgot to tell you i stopped time while we were doing it.]

Hearing the vague explaination Abgail provided to her, Nuo Ling facial expression became extremely weird, her mouth and left eye twitched uncontrollably as miasma gushed out from her body, this type of aura even managed to scare Abigail for a moment. After she had retreated behind a pillar Nuo Ling, Abigail poked her head out, asking with a terrifield expression, her whole body was trembling. [N-Nuo Ling ? Are you alright ?]

This comical sight made Nuo Ling unable to be angry anymore. She shrugged her shoulders, plastered on her face was a tired but somehow happy smile. This cute moment of the two was soon interupted by the manager of the Merchant Guild though, a branch manager like her normally doesn't have much power or influence but this was THE Merchant Guild ! Even their dogs were more important than a commoner life.

The bitch was pretty old, about sixty-something years old, for a normal person to survive until they're sixty in medieval ages like this was pretty rare. Keep in mind that this was medieval ages, there was no medicine or hospital like modern time, not to mention healer, alchemist and light mages alike certainly won't help someone for fun.

The mortality rate was also extremely high, most people die as a teenager due to various reasons, many even die the moment they just got out from their mother womb from the lack of medical attention. For a woman like this ugly manager here to live til this age and even become the manager of a branch of the Merchant Guild, Abigail knew her backing must be extraordianry.
