Strongest Lady's

Ch. 34-The Oath of Faithfulness

“I will help you for the rest of my life,” the snake woman said with confidence.

Weiruo raised his eyebrows, certainly feeling astonished because the snake woman before him could now say that so easily.

“ ‘Sisa live’? looks like you're dying?” Weiruo smiled faintly.

“It ... I'll be dead soon, so I want to at least live a quiet life for a moment. I will repay your kindness before I die, I promise.”

“Do not be pathetic.”

Weiruo lowered his sword, removing the boundary between the two.

“You are so strong, how can you die so easily?” ask Weiruo.

“It's been long enough...”.

The snake woman began to tell a short story about her life before arriving in this small valley.

Five years ago, Shema, the snake woman in front of Weiruo now, lived as a warrior in the Silver Snake Tribe, a snake demon tribe whose reputation was quite famous in the Shui Empire.

Having an enemy was natural to the Silver Snake Tribe, but the tribe was unaware of who their opponent was.

The chief accidentally offended a black-flow sect that was expert in the field of poison. At first the tribal chief only thought that all the problems would be solved easily as usual. However, it was unexpected that the sect came with hundreds of high-level warriors and carried out a massacre on the Silver Snake Tribe.

Shema was the only survivor, but she also had an attack that resulted in severe internal injuries and deadly poison embedded in her body.

Black Blood Poison, a poison that would eat away at one's body and make him suffer from time to time.

It was a fortune for Shema because she had survived for five years. With the help of pills he was able to withstand the growth of the poison for three years.

However, Shema had a bit of trouble two years ago so having to fight and sustain a deep wound, the poison within her body had become so ferocious from that day on.

Shema found the slopes full of spiritual weaving by accident and decided to look for a suitable plant to hold the poison within her.

The quiet end of life Shema thought, but the last few months enough people have come to disturb Shema's calmness and try to take the valley from her.

“This is the last wound of them.”

Shema stroked the soft left abdomen with an incision wound that had not dried.

“I just want to die quietly in this place, no more.” Shema smiled wryly, looking sorrow in both of her eyes.

“Black Blood Poison?”

Weiruo sat down and took out a book, opened and read each page carefully. A moment passed and Weiruo closed the book, a smile etched on his face.

“What would you do if I helped you cure that poison?” tanyanya slow.

A short question, but made Shema's body tremble instantly. If Weiruo can heal his wounds, it is not impossible that he can return to his figure five years ago.

However, a moment later Shema came back lethargic. He smiled faintly, looking at Weiruo blankly.

“I ... have been so tired of this world,” he said slowly.

“Well if so.”

Weiruo kept the book and stood up from where he sat. There was no more business between the two, Weiruo did not mind the previous attitude of Shema and Shema did not mind Weiruo's presence either.

There was nothing to do, Weiruo also had to return to the Medicine Hall immediately.

“Ah, wait .. I...”.

Weiruo stopped his steps, turning around as Shema called out to him.

“... sword ... I will be your sword and shield, so please heal me.”

“My sword and shield? Doesn't that mean you're ready to die for me?”

“Yes .. but I want to enjoy my chance to live this time. My life will be yours completely.”

“After you swallow this pill, the poison will become a little more tame.”

Weiruo threw a jade bottle containing three Lotus Pills. The poison present within Shema's body was more or less the same as the one in Da Feng's body earlier, but Shema's possession was much stronger.

After taking one grain, Shema could feel her body condition immediately improve, her wound also slightly closed due to the effect of the pill.

“From now on I, Shema, will become Miss Weiruo's subordinate. With the sky as a witness, I swear this allegiance I promise will be the sword and shield that always protect her.”

A sudden thunder struck in the bright sky, quite surprising to Weiruo, he had not expected that there would be lightning in such a bright day.

“What will there be a storm?” ask him to yourself.

“Not, it is proof that the heavens bear witness to my oath. If I have an intention to betray you, then I will get punishment from the sky,” explained Shema.

Weiruo was surprised, based on Shema's explanation, to mean that the woman would be Weiruo's subordinate who could not betray.

“The sky oath will end when the person who receives the oath wants to end the oath, after which the person will not get the same oath from the same person,” Shema continued as if knowing the heart of Weiruo.

“Why do you do such an oath?” ask Weiruo.

“Entahlah .. I feel so calm after doing it.” Shema only smiled faintly before greeting Weiruo as a loyal subordinate from now on.

“Suach to you. Hmm ... may I take some spiritual plants there?”

“Sure, you can take everything because it is from now on no one controls this place.”

“Good.”

Weiruo left Shema and returned to Gohu City. Then as he said, Weiruo returned the next day with Qi Jia.

Initially Qi Jia was confused as to why Weiruo brought her into the forest, her confusion turned to shock when she saw Shema who was in her snake form.

“She Shema, you could say she is my subordinate.”

Qi Jia hesitantly introduced herself, after a few conversations her alertness decreased and her fear also slightly disappeared.

Weiruo asked Qi Jia to help her pick spiritual plants, as well as introduce some kind of spiritual tanamaan to her.

***

There were so many preparations before opening the Medicine Hall, besides the spiritual plant Weiruo also had to find some people to take care of the ministry in the place.

“It's good you take all the plants here.”

“Isn't it better to let them keep growing? I can harvest them in the future.” Weiruo plucked out a spiritual tanama and arranged it in a prepared basket.

“This place is so far from the city where you live now. Then from now on I will follow you, so it is better to take everything without leaving anything.”

Weiruo thought for a moment before confirming Shema's suggestion, after all the spiritual plants in the valley were not rare spiritual plants.

“Isn't that Qi Jia? What happened to him?”

Shema noticed Qi Jia who was running towards the two with quite a chaotic state.
