The Princess And The Lord

Using their abilities it didn't take long until they arrived at the Manor even without a carriage, everyone seemed to know what was going on and they all rushed over to check on Lory's condition, they had seen how crazy Zhao Li Xin had been when he found out Lory almost died, if not because of Lory persuasion through the letter that day perhaps all shadow guards who responsible for Lory safety that day will be dead and everyone else will be punished since then everyone gets nervous every time Lory was harm under they watch, soon they all breathe a sigh of relief when Lory comes home unscathed. 

"Madam, are you hurt?!" Yuan Xue An came in a hurry, she was with Jin Hao when they got an emergency warning from Mong Yi, so as not to slow down Jin hao's movements, Yuan Xue An waited in the manor anxiously when Jin Hao and the others ran to the rescue.

Lory patted Yuan Xue An's shoulder and smiled "I'm fine, Jin Hao came at the right time so nothing happened to me" 

"Anda perlu istirahat Nyonya dan biarkan Tuan Jin Hao memeriksa kondisi Anda" Ling Zi yang telah melayani Lory sejak mereka berada di kota Yun Dao sangat cemas dia hampir berlari mengejar Jin hao ketika mendengar kabar darurat tentang Lory.

Lory barely opens her mouth when she heard a high pitch shouted "Lory, are you okay, are you got hurt?!" 

Lory Saw Bei Li Yan look so tense, and behind him, Wu San Bo was also running as he also looked very depressed, their expressions relaxed only after they saw Lory look safe and sound. they didn't know how they would face their lord if anything happened to Lory, even their four life was nothing compared to the single wound on Lory's body. 

"Sorry we came late, we were out of town when we received the message, are you okay – you weren't hurt, right?" Bei Li Yan's eyes searched for any visible cuts or wounds on Lory's body.

Lory was silent at the same time he felt a surge of warmth in her heart "I'm fine, but I think we need to talk about Wu Ze Tian" Lory reminded their priorities.

"Yes, young madam" Jin Hao agreed. This is what he likes about Lory even though she is a woman she is always calm and cool-headed whenever she makes a decision no matter how stressful the situation is. 

"Fortunately, milord is still cultivating within the mystic realm, otherwise he might face Wu Ze Tian's head and burn everything to the ground" Bei Li Yan shook his head in fear, it might sound exaggerated but he knew Zhao Li Xin and Wu Ze Tian's characters. very well, those madmen never had any consideration with their surroundings when they were fighting.

Wu San Bo let out a long sigh "Yeah, I think the whole town will be destroyed when they are fighting, everything will be gone…..and so my money" Wu San Bo mutter the last sentence with a helpless look, the income in Sun Jan city is one of the biggest for his business, although one can replace the business when it's gone but losing so much money was still painful for Wu san Bo.

Lory scratched his head as she had no words to defend Zhao Li Xin "Yeah...let's talk in the garden" he beckoned for them to follow her.

They followed Lory into the garden before they thought the main garden in the manor was too messy, disorganized, and had too many bushes and flower trees but after Lory decorated the garden with lanterns, tidy few branches, and flower bushes then adding some paving stones, the garden turned into a quiet and serene place. 

When Lory added a small table, a few chairs, an arhat chair, and a small furnace it became the perfect place to relax. Soon the four Kings of the palace decided to make a place similar to this one in their own palace. while everyone was enjoying her cozy little place Ling Zi was busy helping Lory wipe herself and change her clothes, Ling Zi rarely served Lory because Lory liked to do everything herself but today she insisted on helping Lory and Lory couldn't help but refuse her sincerity.

Thanks to Ling Zi, she felt much better after she wiped her face and neck with a warm towel and then changed her dress. Because of Lory's simple style, it didn't take her too long to get dressed, she just tied half her hair with lace then tinted her lips with rouge to keep her from looking pale, and she was ready in no time.

As she walked into the park alone Lory had undone her shapeshifter spell, she felt better when she faced her friends with her true appearance. Once she arrived at the garden everyone had found a comfortable place for themselves, for a moment Lory forgot that they were gathering for a serious discussion as it looked like they were having a tea party, though Lory didn't mind as she didn't like being too serious. Lory walked across the garden and plopped down on the arhat chair and leaned back lazily on the armrest.

"Okay, tell me what's the matter with Wei Zu Tian" Lory pulled her leg on the sofa comfortably before Bei Li Yan handed her a cup of tea.

Handing Lory a cup of tea, Bei Li Yan replied: "Wei Zu Tian is the sect master of the Heaven's Gate sect located on the Hwang Wu continent, the headquarters of the sect is on a green jade mountain, the Heaven's Gate sect is known as the most powerful sect on the Hwang Wu continent, and for the past six years no one has been able to match them." Bei Li Yan then sat on the chair beside Lory's couch. 

"How did you all meet him?" Lory asked again after she had sipped a cup of tea.

This time it was Jin Hao who answered Lory's question, "It's been a long time, I thought milord was only sixteen - seventeen years old, that was before Wu San Bo and Jiang Jin Wei joined us, at that time we were all looking for a cure for My lord poison, so I recommend going to the Hwang Wu continent to find the Duan clan."

"Big mistake, indeed…" Jin Hao sighed as he was deep in thought.

Jin Hao remembered that those years were the most difficult for him, Zhao Li Xin, and the others. At that time Hei Shen was not as strong as today, they were also still too young and inexperienced moreover they were all hiding from their own families as Jin Hao was hiding from the Mystic lake clan, Zhao Li Xin hiding from the Jiang Wei royal family, and Bei Li Yan…well, she was also running from his past. 

Although Tian Meng Ji gave them help from time to time, alas he had his own problems so he couldn't always be there to guide them so everyone depended on Zhao Li Xin wisdom to carry on, thus they become adamant to find a cure for Zhao Li Xin as soon as possible. 

"The Duan Family is another big clan from the Hwang Wu Continent, they live in the southwest region they are famous as a family that is expert in poison, in fact, they are the only family that knows the secret way of cultivating 'Gu', you know about 'Gu' right? " Jin Hao asked. 

"Gu? Didn't Lao Min Na poison Zhao Yi Chen with Gu?" Lory thought she'd heard this before. 

"Yup, he did…poor guy~" Bei Li Yan sarcastically said then chuckled lightly "That's why I'm pretty sure that Lao Min Na somehow has ties to the Duan clan, though I still not know how or when…" Bei Li Yan feel miffed about it. 

"O-kay….but what does Wei Zu Tian have to do with the Duan clan?" asked Lory. 

"The famous Queen of poison Duan Shu Shu is the legitimated daughter from the Duan family and she also Wei Zu Tian's biological mother," said Jin Hao, "I thought that if anyone knew about the origin of the cold poison it was the Duan clan, so we went there with hope to find clues about the poison inside the Duan family, alas our search was in vain so we pinned our hopes on Duan Shu Shu who is the most skilled in the poison field, and so we were looking for her…." Jin Hao let out a harsh breath, he regretted his decision that day if he could turn back the time he would never set foot on the Hwang Wu continent in the first place.

Bei Li Yan continued, "Later we found out that Duan Shu Shu has married the Wei clan patriarch, the sect master of the Heaven's Gate sect so we took a risk and we went there" he gave mirthless laugh. 

"Big mistake" Jin Hao muttered as he took a sip of his wine.

Bei Li Yan raised her index finger as he agreed with Jin Hao "Right... but we went there anyway, that's how we met a crazy but strong man named Wei Zu Tian,​ then we found out that Wei Zu Tian inherited Duan Shu Shu skilled so we make a bet on asking him for help" Bei Li Yan made a stupid expression as she felt that way when she explained it to Lory, he didn't know how or who proposed this stupid idea? 

"Big Mistake," Jin Hao said again then sighed deeply.

"Yes…." Bei Li Yan scratched his nose once again he agrees with Jin Hao.

Lory was confused why everyone was silent "Is he said no?" Lory spread her arms waiting for them to continue.

They all made inexplicable expressions as if they were hesitating about something, Lory raised her eyebrows, she won't let them stop now. Having no choice, Bei Li Yan bit his lip and said, "No, he… agrees buuuut…." Bei Li Yan prolonged. 

"Buuutttt?" Lory squints her eyes as she grew impatient.

"He wants him!" Bei Li Yan made an expression like he was eating a fly.

Lory's brows furrowed gradually, "What does he want? Wanted as what?" Lory was still having a hard time digesting Bei Li Yan's ambiguous words "Is he wanted Li Xin as his subordinate, servant, slave, or what?"

Bei Li Yan's face got stiffen and his smile become weirder "Uhm….not really, he wants milord as his a, you know…..to be his…." Bei Li Yan make X gesture with his index fingers.

Lory scrunched her face, anger welled up inside her like a wave, "No, tell me, this is not what I think it is!" Lory pounds the armrest violently.
