PRECIOUS PRINCESS

ONE HUNDRED

The door of the house was opened featuring a white-haired person with a beard that was also white.

"Grandfather Shi!" strangled prince Zhan and Xuan Lan together.

Grandpa Shi just smiled. He then allowed two people in front of him to go inside.

"Sit down, I'll get you guys a drink" grandfather Shi said kindly.

Xuan Lan and prince Zhan obeyed what Shi's grandfather had said. They both sat on the floor because there were no chairs in this house. Shortly after, Shi's grandfather had already brought a tray containing bamboo glasses on it.

"Drink, you must be thirsty" said grandfather Shi again.

Xuan Lan and prince Zhan immediately drank the water. They both felt instantly refreshed and not tired anymore.

"So what's your purpose here?" ask grandpa Shi.

"Is the grandfather the person being talked about in the book?" asked Xuan Lan.

"What book?" asked grandpa Shi not understand.

"I-I don't know the title but my purpose here is to unseal the seal that is inside my dantian" Xuan Lan said.

Grandfather Shi simply laughed in response to Xuan Lan's remark. He did not say anything that made Xuan Lan feel confused.

"How's cake?" asked Xuan Lan.

"Yes, your goal is right to come here and see me" said Shi's grandfather.

"Has the seal on your arm gone?" ask grandfather Shi again.

"It's cake" Xuan Lan said.

"Now you need to rest. Xuan Lan you sleep in there and Zhan you will sleep here" Grandpa Shi said then left.

"What does this mean Xuan Lan?" ask prince Zhan.

"Okay, maybe we really need to rest first and ask again" Xuan Lan said then entered the room meant by grandfather Shi. They then went into their own dreamland.

The next morning Xuan Lan opened her eyes. He walked out of his room as it turned out that Prince Zhan was already outside with grandfather Shi. They seemed to be talking, Xuan Lan then walked up to the two of them.

"Are you ready to unseal in your dantian?" grandfather Shi asked directly to Xuan Lan.

"Sure, cake" Xuan Lan said steadily.

"Alright, now sit on the rock" said grandfather Shi as he pointed at the rock near the waterfall near Shi's grandfather's house.

Xuan Lan simply obeyed him. He started walking there. Once there he began to occupy himself in the lotus position. Grandfather Shi then caught up with Xuan Lan, prince Zhan only watched from a distance as grandfather Shi had told him not to come any closer when Xuan Lan and grandfather Shi would try to unseal Xuan Lan's dantian because grandfather Shi did not want the prince Zhan's bothering them.

"Are you ready?" asked grandfather Shi who was reciprocated by a nod of the head by Xuan Lan.

Grandfather Shi began to attach both of his hands to Xuan Lan's shoulders.

"Hold on it" grandfather Shi said with a slightly quivering tone.

Xuan Lan closed her eyes. As grandfather Shi began to stick his hands together, Xuan Lan felt warm and felt nothing else but that. After a long while he began to feel there was a stream gripping his shoulders firmly but he could still hold back for this level of pain. Over time the body until the head feels pain.

Xuan Lan still closed her mouth tightly. He felt like his body was fitted with a bomb that could explode at any time. Prince Zhan looked at Xuan Lan who was in pain to be heartless. He now knew the reason Grandfather Shi forbade him from approaching because if he was near them then Prince Zhan would instantly remove grandfather shi's hand from Xuan Lan's body. Prince Zhan chose to flip his body so as not to look at Xuan Lan who was enduring the pain.

Time had already passed for several hours yet the activities performed by grandfather Shi and Xuan Lan had not been completed. Prince Zhan became extremely anxious. He just paced back and forth to relieve his anxiety but it didn't work. He then glanced slightly towards Xuan Lan and grandfather Shi, both of them trembling with faces that looked just as pale.

Grandfather Shi then raised both of his hands then he patted Xuan Lan on the back in the end. Upon seeing the clap it was indeed not loud but Xuan Lan felt like her back was being thrown by an enormous and sharp stone and she had to endure it.

"Ahh" shouted Xuan Lan in the end.

"Uhukk" Grandfather Shi coughed and spat blood out of his mouth. He then wiped the blood and spoke to Xuan Lan.

"Already, you can open your eyes" grandfather Shi said as he adjusted his breathing.

Xuan Lan opened her eyes. His body felt crushed and did not have the slightest strength, he finally fainted from not being able to withstand the pain in his body. Grandfather Shi then called Prince Zhan to come closer.

"Why sister?" prince Zhan asked frantically when he found Xuan Lan unconscious.

"He was just exhausted, quickly bring him inside" Shi's grandfather told prince Zhan.

Prince Zhan then nodded and carried Xuan Lan towards the mansion that belonged to grandfather Shi.

"Will he be okay?" asked Prince Zhan for the umpteenth time against grandfather Shi.

"You take it easy, he'll soon wake up" said grandfather Shi very casually.

"Grandfather always said that but since seven days ago he was still unconscious" the prince Zhan who was feeling despair with Grandfather Shi's reply said.

Xuan Lan blinked her eyes slowly. His head feels very dizzy. He then looked around, there was Prince Zhan arguing with grandfather Shi but grandfather Shi did not respond.

"Water" said Xuan Lan.

Prince Zhan instantly turned his body around. He then took out some water and helped Xuan Lan to drink that water.

"I've already said that he will wake up soon" Shi's grandfather said as he sipped on something like a cigarette.

"You okay? Do you want to eat? Does your body feel weak? How are you feeling now?" asked Prince Zhan streak accompanied by his burning worry.

"I'm fine" said Xuan Lan.

Prince Zhan was relieved. He then took the food and fed it to Xuan Lan. After he finished, grandfather Shi returned to his voice.

"Zhan, let your sister rest. We're out first"

"He's been resting for a week is it still lacking?" ask the stupid Prince Zhan.

"According to your brother or sister won't be any better than now" Shi's grandfather threatened to leave.

Prince Zhan with his unwillingness of heart finally left Xuan Lan alone in his room. He came out with slow footsteps. Xuan Lan then closed her eyes again. He felt very weak after waking up.
