CHAPTER 82: JUNSHI

Junshi appeared at the scene

"What is going on here?" He asked staring at Jia's lifeless body

"Brother Junshi," Raijin said in surprise

"You don't have manners, do you? Killing your little guest. So like, what's the point?" Junshi mocked with a sadistic smile

"I didn't mean to," Kagutsuchi said

Tsuyokomi didn't say a word and disappeared

Kagutsuchi was trying to escape

"Where do you think you're going? By the way, where's Maat?" Junshi asked

"Maat has been missing for a while. She and Ryujin went missing around the same time" Raijin answered in fear

Junshi carried Jia's body

"She's not even a martial Honor yet. So I'm asking you again, what's the point?" Junshi probed again

His questions solicited no answer so he left with Jia's body

He put her down and started to channel his energy into her body. Repairing her damaged body and her damaged divine soul

He repaired her forming Musubi that had already been damaged

He was surprised that she had already started to form Musubi

Jia stirred and awoke

"What are you doing here?" Jia asked

"Little you almost died. Cute isn't it?" Junshi said with a devilish smile

"That's not cute," Jia said in horror

"All I ask is you stay with me as long as you are here," Junshi said calmly

"Why?" Jia asked

"The fire damaged your soul and I fixed it with a part of mine so we're pretty much soul bound. " Junshi explained

"And why should I come along with you? You seem boring" Jia taunted

" Well, we have no choice," Junshi said dramatically

"Are you trying to lure me into something I don't want to do?" Jia asked skeptically

"I gave you most of my soul. Until that part grows back, we're stuck with the soul ties" Junshi said with a sigh

"Why why did you save me?" Jia asked clenching her fists

Junshi stared at her with a puzzled look

"Are you sick or something?! Aren't you supposed to be ~ There's nothing we can do about it?" Junshi said walking away

He clenched his chest in pain as he walked away. A mouthful of blood spilled from his mouth

Jia also felt the same pain

"See, you die, I die. I get hurt,you get hurt. It is better for us to stay together until my soul heals and then I can let you go. What do you think little princess?" Junshi asked

"It's not like I want to do this but... Fine I'll come with you" Jia said sighing deeply

"Thank You. Come with me" Junshi said extending his hand to Jia

Jia took his hand and he pulled her at a very high speed into a very beautiful place

"What is the meaning of this ~ This is amazing. What is this place?" Jia asked a dreamy smile

The place had lots of flowers, trees, insects, and singing birds.

A pristine building stood in the middle

"This is my little place" Junshi said with a mischievous smile

They both entered the building. Jia's mind dampened instantly

"Really?" Jia asked with a scowl

"What?" Junshi asked pretending to be innocent

The inside of the building was empty.

" Come on. Don't be so narrow-minded " Junshi said facepalming

He snapped his fingers and lights appeared

The place was fully illuminated and richly decorated like a sort of palace

Jia murmured something under her breath with a red face

" Whatever you want, Ask them. This supreme needs to rest" Junshi said faking a yawn

He waltzed out of sight

Three scantily clad girls appeared shortly after

They eyed Jia but she ignored them and lounged on the sofa

Jia snickered internally and slept off despite being threatened. She was a kind of person who didn't care about whatever anybody thought about her

Jia awakened shortly after. The three girls had vanished from sight.

She heard moans coming from a particular section of the house but she ignored it as usual

Supreme Xue flew in shortly after. Jia wanted to yell her name but Supreme Xue held her mouth tightly

"Shhh don't shout. I'm intruding" Supreme Xue cautioned in a low voice

"Ok why are you here" Jia replied in an equally low voice

" I heard about what happened. How did you get here? " Supreme Xue asked

She sighed and read Jia's memories

Her eyes widened in shock

"Uh gotta go," Supreme Xue said disappearing as fast as she had come

Junshi appeared shortly

He was topless. His well chiseled body was on full display

Again, Jia pretended he wasn't there

" Good morning " Junshi said flashing a smile

" Hi," Jia said looking in another direction

Junshi nodded and disappeared from sight

Supreme Xue appeared again with a very red face

"What is wrong with you?" Jia asked seeing Supreme Xue blushing heavily

Jia sighed in realization

"Xue, don't tell me you are ~," Jia said with a mischievous smile

"I didn't say anything" Supreme Xue said with a red face

" Well, if you're willing to be fourth, there's no problem," Jia said flicking her sleeves

" What do you mean fourth? " Supreme Xue asked in indignation

She hovered around Jia

"Oh, you should be able to join the party. I heard a few noises this morning. Yeah, you should be fourth. I think" Jia taunted with a smirk

" Don't talk about it shorty " Supreme Xue growled

The jealousy in her eyes grew to another level

"Chill," Jia said trying to pacify Supreme Xue

"I see Junshi gave you a part of his soul. What does he want?" Supreme Xue inquired

"Really? Oh well Kagutsuchi hit me with a fireball and Junshi woke me up with a part of his soul and he says I have to stay with him till that part of his soul grows back" Jia explained

Supreme Xue nodded in understanding

"Fair enough" She mouthed

"So why did you run away then" Jia inquired

" You know the reason so forget about it, " Supreme Xue said disappearing

Jia facepalmed in frustration
