Rebirth: Her Sorrow - Chapter 10

Shufen didn’t know how the hell did she endure the medicine. And now is her last day for that torture. Well she called it torture. Still Shufen didn’t felt any regret. Besides that she will be cured her body is also getting strong. She could now feel the spiritual energy, And for the first time in her life. She was grateful that she was kicked here. She was starting to cultivate, although it’s a bit late. It’s better than never.

“Ready?” Yaling was also there with Master Mu. The water they prepared was alot more strong than she could imagine. She could smell the strong medicine and it hurt her nose. In Shufen’s eyes she could see little demons floating in the tub. But there is nothing really. She just viewed the medicine as an evil creature that hurt her.

“What choice do I have?” Shufen talk back at Master Mu. She was too nervous and her Master’s continues teasing is annoying her. And there is her sister , She was trying to stop herself from laughing. Shufen quickly lay down at the tub making the two shut their mouths. In reality they are both nervous. They’re just trying to ease Shufen including their selves. They were too tense.

Who would know that Master Mu can feel fear? He felt pathetic that his disciple had to experience this pain before getting cured. And tomorrow is alot more painful. Ahh, My good disciple is pitiful.

Shufen felt like she was in purgatory. She feel like she is being burn. Inside and out. Her flesh, her blood it was boiling. She felt like she was about to explode. Help! It hurts!! Her tears are falling, heavy breathing. She wanted it to stop.

“Make it stop. please.” Shufen didn’t know that she unconsciously said that. Yaling was about to get Shufen out of the tub but was stop by Master Mu. Master Mu can also feel the pity that Yaling felt but they must not interrupt Shufen or else her focus will disappear.

Master Mu went beside Shufen and said some comforting words. Master Mu knew it wouldn’t help but he tried his luck. He was hoping that it could atleast lessen the pain a little.

“Shh. It’s okay. Shufen. It’s okay” Master Mu was still saying words when Yaling also went beside Shufen opposite to Master Mu. Yaling started to hum, it was Shufen’s favorite song when she was a little child. It was her lullaby. Master Mu heard it and smiled gently.

‘Their sister relationship is good. I hope it won’t be broken’ Master Mu never wished for anything but right now he made an exception. Because once he felt this. Being loved by a sibling. Master Mu never thought that he will do it and could obly shook his head.

“Please endure” Yaling was begging though she was just whispering Master Mu could hear it quickly. Even if it’s just a little bit sound, Master Mu could hear it. They could see that the clear water was now red and something black and violet. The poison was now coming out. Shufen puke , Yaling then put a cloth at Shufen’s face to wipe the black blood.

After a little while Shufen stopped puking and fainted. Master Mu carried her and lay her at the bed near them. Master Mu then went out of the room staying at the door. Yaling went to grab the clothes that were folded neatly at the table. She changed Shufen’s clothes and tidy her up. Yaling could have called a maid and make her do it but then that person who poisoned Shufen will know.

So they made it a secret. When it was done, Yaling smiled and called Master Mu to come in. The creaked open and Master Mu came in. Closing the door immediately before anyone could see what was happening inside.

“Make Shufen drink this. I’ll get going I still have to do something. Oh, And tell her that if she was already feeling okay contact me.” Yaling took the pouch and nod. Saying her thanks to Master Mu. He went out after saying his goodbye. It seems that Master Mu is really busy today. He was rushing to go out.

‘I have to report this’ Master Mu was too happy. He wanted to say this to that person proudly. His disciple is now cured. He was smiling while walking fast. Would he be happy? Master must be happy!!

Yaling was nervous. Shufen was still unconscious for nine hours. It was already noon and she was starving. Yaling didn’t have time to eat. The door suddenly opened it revealed her father. Yaling’s face darkened. How dare he set his foot here!? Yaling wanted to scream at her father.

“Greetings father” Yaling was clenching her hands tightly, she forced herself to smile gently. General Ning nodded and just went to see Shufen who was laying at her bed.

“How is she?” Yaling didn’t know if her father knows that she was cured. She doesn’t want to tell him. What if he was the one who poisoned Shufen? Yaling raised her head and stared at General Ning and sighed.

“The poison in her body is too strong. I’m afraid she will be crippled in her whole life” Yaling lied smoothly. She was already used to it. Not that her father can see through her. General Ning smirked before faking a sad face.

“What a poor child. Why must my child experience this king of torture??” He was lying with his eyes open and that made Yaling mad. She really didn’t like her father, He was not a loving father like everyone says. He’s a hypocrite and a disgusting pig in a human body. Though General Ning really loved Yaling. It was a love for money and power.

Why must this man be Shufen’s father. Shufen was already awake by the time that General Ning arrived. She was pretending to sleep and just listened to them talking. Shufen heard the hatred within Yaling’s voice. Does this man knows what hypocrisy? Such an actor. No wonder Madam Ning is his Wife. Birds of the same feathers flock together. [1]
