Safe Now

A sea of white flashed before my eyes. Dizzily, I steadied myself as my vision came back to me in patches. Everyone was in a large gold room. The doors were open, and attendants in the National Aurra Bank's uniform came in, providing everyone with refreshments and aid. "Where are we?" I asked. "In the main Kunwu branch. I have some paperwork to do now. Yun!" she shouted. "Yes, master." a young man promptly appeared. "This is Miss Ying I told you about. She's going to be living here from now on. See her to her quarters and get her settled in. Ying Yue, I'll see you as soon as I can. In the meantime, this is my subordinate, Yun. Find him if you have any problems." she said before flying off.

"Miss Ying, please follow me." Yun said. Not having much choice, I followed after him. We went into another transporting formation. This time, because there was time to cast properly, we didn't end up being dizzy and blinded as usually happened during emergency castings. I looked around. This was clearly the same bank, but a whole different part. Instead of a business, it looked like a glided, luxurious palace. Handmaidens and servants travelled in the hall, and elaborate treasures were displayed. "This is National Aurra Bank's accommodations. VVIP customers who need our help stay here as long as they want." he said, smiling. It looked more like what I envisioned a cultivation sect to look like.

"One of our Nascent Soul grandmasters also stays around this area, so it is very safe. I hear you've had quite a journey." he said. "Journey? How do you know?" I asked. "When the Valerias Branch launched its emergency alert, the main branch was notified and we came to receive the evacuees. The level 10 alert is the highest possible. We've reached your new quarters. You can stay here as long as you like under National Aurra Bank's protection. Rest assured, our Nascent Soul grandmaster has sworn a blood oath to your parents. You can meet him later. I'll leave you to settle in now. Please use my token if you need me." he said.

After such an eventful day, I was only happy to be left alone for a while. My room was more like a penthouse. The first door opened to a large, luxurious sitting area. This was the area where attendants were allowed to go. After that, there was a bedroom, concocting room, library, kitchen, cultivating room and all sorts of things. Everything was already fully stocked. I opened the wardrobe, and was shocked to find it full of robes and items in my size. Everything was in a pastel color theme. There was a note on the bed with the National Aurra Bank stamp. "To Miss Ying Yue, we hope you find your stay satisfactory.".

Seeing everything was done, I went to the bathroom, which was more like a hot spring. I was shocked when I looked at myself in the mirror. I looked like a beggar. It was a wonder no one stared at me when we walked through the corridors. I laid a defensive formation in the room, to prevent anyone from coming in, then took a bath. After that, I leisurely picked some clothes from the ready wardrobe, and promptly fell asleep.
