Considering the Possibility of Falling in Love With the Villain

Chapter 26 I’m in love with you [1]

 “Daren, let’s go, the glorious future of the Zhu family is waiting for us!”

Zhu Ming’s whole body trembled from excitement. He took two steps forward and saw Zhu Ai squatting down and smiling slightly at the girl in his arms.

“Danger!”

The beast-like intuition from the level 4 mastery made Zhu Ming subconsciously take a step back as a storm of wind in the cavern, centred on Zhu Ai, exploded and a protective shield quickly took shape, enveloping both of them.

The protective cover is not large and it can only accommodate the bodies of the two people who are squatting down. However, the colour is dark blue and almost black and the translucent protective cover almost makes it impossible for outsiders to see what is inside. Obviously, this shield is composed of unbelievably strong energy!

Zhu Ming’s face changed, “Everyone, attack the shield!”

The level 4 ability user attacked the protective cover but only making one after another ripples and the small protective cover was indestructible.

“It’s useless, with your strength it would take at least two minutes to break this shield. This move requires too much energy to build up and takes too long to activate, the cost effectiveness is so poor that I normally didn’t use it.” Zhu Ai smiled faintly and returned Zhu Ming’s previous words.

The index finger of her right hand was like a knife and with a flick of her wrist, fresh blood came out like a fountain, dripping into the wound at Shen Qingjia’s heart. Time seemed to be reversed, as Zhu Ai’s blood flowed into Shen Qingjia’s wound. As Zhu Ai’s face became paler and paler, the hideous wound at the heart healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally disappeared completely, the skin smooth as jade, without any trace of injury.

“Blood Incarnation!” [2] Zhu Ming widened his eyes in disbelief, “Someone in the Zhu family actually practised it…”

Blood Incarnation is a forbidden technique of the Zhu family. It is said that if this technique reaches the highest level, it can even reverse the cycle of life and death. According to the rumours in the Zhu family, this is a lost art. Zhu Ming usually takes it as a joke but he never expected to see this almost miraculous secret technique today.

“If Zhu Hui was here, I would definitely not dare to take such a risk. As an ability user, even if Qingjia’s entire body is penetrated, she will not be in a coma within a few seconds. Zhu Hui will definitely be able to guess that I suppressed her central nervous system with water ability.”

Zhu Ming almost clenched his teeth, “Tell me why you do this!”

“Of course it is to fight against you!”

Zhu Ming, “…Daren better not to be complacent too soon, have you forgotten that this is a thousand metres high and that there are higher lethality locating shells below?”

Zhu Ai was too lazy to answer him this time. She waved her hand to Heise who was still whimpering in agony. She quickly took out the crystal core and said to Heise, “I release you from pain, now go reincarnated.”

Seeing the grey crystal nucleus taken from the black monster bird’s brain, Zhu Ming’s face was completely distorted, “Space attribute crystal nucleus!!”

He waved his hand suddenly and shouted: “Everyone, use your life force and attack with everything you have!!!”

No matter how much ruckus happens outside the protective cover, she just focuses on fusing the space attribute crystal nucleus with the level 4 mutant animal leopard-shaped crystal nucleus. The blue light keeps shining and the two red and grey crystal nucleus gradually fused into one dark red crystal nucleus the size of a fist, but the colour is somehow muddled.

The leopard-shaped mutant animal swallowed the secret realm orb before it exploded and absorbed a lot of its power. The energy contained inside the crystal nucleus is much higher than ordinary level 4 crystal nucleus but it is still not enough, still not enough…

“Tell Zhu Hui that sooner or later, I will find her to pay back for today’s game.”

Zhu Ai turned her head and said lightly and immediately jumped off the cliff with Shen Qingjia in her arms without hesitation.

The water-attribute power shield looks like a bubble and carries the two of them in the air as they floated and fell slowly.

“Not enough, the energy is still not enough ……,” Zhu Ai muttered as she looked at the somewhat spotted and cloudy coloured crystal nucleus in her hand.

After pondering for a while, Zhu Ai’s right hand became a claw shape and suddenly grabbed into her belly. Before long, she took out a bloody blue crystal nucleus, which is Zhu Ai’s water ability crystal nucleus.

The crystal nuclei of mutated animals and evolved creatures are all in the brain, while the crystal nuclei of human beings are in the upper abdomen, three inches below the umbilicus, which is often referred to as the Dantian in martial arts novels. This is the place where human energy is stored, and if a psychic is damaged in this area, the psychic power level will drop or the psychic power will be completely lost, not to mention pulling out the ability crystal nucleus from the Dantian, which is not something that a normal person can do! [3]

The naturally fused water ability crystal nucleus blended into the previous dark red crystal nucleus, and the mottled colours in the crystal were quickly removed and filtered out, eventually turning a nice clean and translucent lead grey.

The sound of the violent wind was blocked out of the shield and the weightlessness of falling from a great height continued to assault her, as Zhu Ai held Shen Qingjia tightly in case she felt uncomfortable in her sleep.

“Boom!!!!!”

The shield, deprived of the energy supply from Zhu Ai’s ability core, began to become unstable and at that moment, a high altitude positioning pursuit shell struck the shield and a sound like glass breaking rang out. Although the dark blue protective cover was not broken immediately, it was absolutely unable to withstand the impact of the second shell. Now, the two were still at a height of 1000 metres.

Zhu Ai took off the space ring on her hand, wiped off the spiritual imprint she left on it, thought for a moment and put it on Shen Qingjia’s index finger with a smile.

Looking at her quiet and beautiful sleeping face, Zhu Ai’s heart was soft, something that had been repressed before suddenly broke through the ground, and now she finally pushed open the closed door of her heart, as if a colourful world was unfolding in front of her!

At this moment, she finally saw what was inside her heart…

Gazing longingly at the young girl in her arms with a clean and beautiful sleeping face, in this moment between life and death, a light smile bloomed on Zhu Ai’s lips, “So that’s how it is, so …… I am in love with you ……”

Why I am willing to die for you, why I am willing to go through fire and water for you, why I am willing to travel the world for you… All of this is because I love you, so any sacrifice is insignificant as long as it is for you.

What do I want…

What am I craving…

Zhu Ai found that all the answers in her life were found at this moment… All the regrets in her life were fulfilled at this moment.

Doesn’t matter if it is taboo or a sin. At this moment, everything doesn’t matter, I am so eager to imprison the person in front of me in my arms!

After gently placing a kiss on Shen Qingjia’s forehead, she crushed the crystal nucleus that was made of multiple crystal nuclei in her hand, whispering, “Teleportation.”

Shen Qingjia’s whole body was enveloped by the extremely soft light, her body disappeared and appeared, flickering indefinitely, like the image received when the signal on the TV screen was unstable before finally disappearing completely in Zhu Ai’s arms a few moments later.

Zhu Ai was stunned for a moment, her eyes were slightly moist and a sadness finally flooded into her heart.

“Ci…Ci…Ci——!!!” [4]

The shield, which had lost its energy supply, shattered with a crunching sound and disappeared as a dot of light, and the completely unprotected Zhu Ai fell even faster to the ground!

At that moment, in her line of sight, another high altitude pursuit shot came at her with a destructive force!

The wind swept through her hair and clothes in mid-air like a dead leaf in a storm and the whole world flew backwards in her eyes.

An upside-down world, an invisible future…

She covered her eyes with her palms and smiled lightly, “This world is too big and lonely and I really just want to be with you…”

“Boom!!!!!”

On the outskirts of the city of Y, there is a large classical-style mansion with pavilions and courtyards.

A snow-white pigeon rests on the pavilion’s railing, cooing as it gathers its wings and feathers. Although the bird looked like a normal pigeon, a closer look showed that it had a violent breath, scarlet eyes and sharp claws – this is a mutant animal.

A young man dressed in black went over and caught it, pulling out the slip of paper from the bamboo tube on its leg, but not daring to look at it, he respectfully handed it to the woman in blue sitting in the pavilion.

“Master Zhu [5], did something happen?” The middle-aged man sitting across took a sip of his tea and smiled.

The woman in blue nodded, “I asked the Zhu family’s first ability team to bring someone back to the Zhu family and now it seems that there is news coming back.”

“Well, surely with the Zhu family’s ability team it must be a successful task.”

“If we are talking about someone else, maybe, but this person is not that easy.” The blue-clothed woman shook her head gently.

The middle-aged man was slightly surprised, “I’m now a little curious hearing you say that.”

The woman in blue unfolded the piece of paper in her hand and looked at it for a moment.

She laughed lightly, the paper in her hand was crushed to ashes, “Aiya, what should I do, it’s really bad news.”
