The Princess And The Lord

Jin Hao was in the carriage on his way to Zhao Li Xin's house, he came to deliver the news about Guan Men Niang but on the way, he suddenly gasped, he looked out the carriage window and his forehead creased slightly.

"Stop!" Jin Hao raised his voice.

The coachman quickly stopped the carriage not long after Jin Hao got off the carriage. Jin Hao turned his gaze to the deserted alley for a moment, Yuan Xue An who was also in the same carriage poked her head out the window, "Master what are you doing?"

"You go first, I'll catch up!" Jin Hao said briefly.

Yuan Xue An was reluctant to leave Jin Hao alone, "Master, we can wait..." she told him

"No" he cut him off, "Go..." he said firmly.

Even though she liked to talk back at him and jokes sometimes, but when Jin Hao got serious, Yuan Xue An didn't dare to argue, she pursed her lips knowing Jin Hao was hiding something from her, "Okay..." she said weakly.

Just before Jin Hao took a step, Yuan Xue An shouted, "Be careful!" she bit her lip anxiously.

Jin Hao smiled faintly at her before he turned around and left while Yuan Xue An watched Jin Hao back until the carriage moving further away and Jin Hao's figure disappeared as he entered the alley.

"Miss Yuan, don't worry about Master, he is very strong and cunning!" said the coachman who was also a member of the White Dragon Palace, obviously he had a lot of confidence in Jin Hao's strength and ability. 

"I know, I'm just worried about the opponent," he said lightly while pretending to be joking.

Meanwhile, Jin Hao stepped into the alley, he opens his fan, then saunter calmly as if the quiet dark alley was his own backyard. Jin Hao stared at the crumbling wall in front of him the walls were covered in stains and dirt, also covered with cracks here and there but he could still see the painting of a childish owl covered with smudged and dirt on the wall.

He just stares at the owl picture for two seconds then he continues walking, Jin Hao leads further inside the alley then not long after he stops at an abandoned dilapidated house, he sees the same owl painting at the old door.

Jin Hao then pushes the old weathered door, he looks around at the abandoned courtyard, the walls half wrecked and the floor cover with weeds and moss, it was clear this place has long been abandoned.

Jin Hao closed his fan, his expression remains cold as always, Jin Hao's face darkens a little as he felt a flicker of irritation inside him then suddenly he shouted in a mild tone "Come out, I don't have time for this!" 

A moment later from behind the dilapidated building, a young woman in a soft purple dress came out, although she didn't have a dazzling beauty she had a gentle and calm demeanor that make a man felt comfortable around her. 

The woman's eyes sparkle as she was overcome with happiness.

"Brother…" she held on her voice not to crack from tears.

Jin Hao was taken aback, he never thought he would meet her again however Ji Hao quickly calmed himself down, "I'm not your brother anymore since I was banished from the Misty Lake," he draws a clear line between them but not because he hates her.

The young lady was startled by Jin hao cold answer, although she feel sad however she had no word to refute him, "To me, you have always been my brother" she forced a smile against Jin Hao's refusal.

The young woman was Jin Hua, she was the daughter of one of Jin Hao's father's concubines. Her mother is very beautiful but she comes from a lowly background that's why Jin Hua's mother's life in the Misty Lake clan is not easy and Jin Hua was also bullied many times by the other concubines and siblings, only Jin Hao and his Mother who treat her and her mother well, Jin Hao Mother use to send food and clothes for Jin Hua so so they don't starve or get cold in winter and Jin Hao was the one who teaches her to read and write secretly so she was not left behind completely.

Unfortunately, Jin Hua's mother did not live long like Jin Hao's mother who also died at a fairly young age, for her losing Jin Hao's mother was like losing her second mother, it was a very painful and heartbreaking moment in her life, Jin Hua always felt grateful to Jin Hao Mother warm and kindness so she decided to treat Jin Hao Mother like her own mother especially after her mother died, but as everyone said 'Good people don't live long' and that's true, especially in a place like the Misty Lake clan.

Just when she thought life couldn't be more difficult, several years later she lost Jin Hao because of poison, everyone thought Jin Hao died, and because of his grave crime he was not allowed to be buried in the Jin family cemetery, and they decide to cruelly bury Ji Hao body in the wilderness,

Since then Jin Hua has become completely alone, without anyone's protection Jin Hua must learn to protect herself. 

undoubtedly it was a harsh life, however, her situation suddenly changes as she develops her skills as a beast Master, since then her position rose among the other daughters and slowly she gains a few followers.

But still, it didn't change her hatred toward the Misty Lake clan. Jin Hua never forgot that this place had killed everyone she ever loves, from then on Jin Hua determined to avenge her two mothers and Jin Hao whatever the cost. 

However, a miracle happened suddenly he received news that Jin Hao was still alive and more than that he had become one of King Hei Shen Palace, he was overjoyed by the news but because of Jin Kai, he didn't dare to look for Jin Hao right away, afraid she just brought him more trouble. 

"Why are you looking for me, Jin Hua?" Jin Hao's voice sounded cold and distant, it made Jin Hua's heart pang with pain.

Jin Hua acts cool as she pretending it didn't bother her "Brother... Would you be willing to return to Misty Lake clan?" 

Jin Hao's brows furrowed, "What for?"

Jin Hua knew Jin Hao despised the Misty Lake, well, who can't blame him, even so, she still hope Jin Hao would return to the Misty Lake clan because she thought that was his rightful place.

"Brother, Misty Lake has been...weird lately since that lady Lao Min Na came "Jin Hua squeezed her hand together. 

"At first we were all amazed by her talent and intelligence she was also very beautiful as a goddess so many of us immediately liked her including the arrogant elders, they all so mesmerized by her they even against the sect rule and allowed Jin Kai gave the precious phoenix for him" Jin Hua shook her head in regret.

Jin Hao suppressed a smile, "Did they receive pills from Lao Min Na in exchange for the phoenix?"

"Yes," she nodded.

"Did you take the pill too?" Jin Hao's expression got stiffen.

Jin Hua quickly shook her head "No, those precious pills are only given to elders and some are distributed among talented sons and grandsons, you know they don't value women as much as men" she sneered disdainfully.

Jin Hao's expression relaxed slightly after he heard Jin Hua's explanation then he turned around to mock them, "Ha, things haven't changed!" Jin Hao mocked their pettiness then he turned his gaze to Jin Hua, "You're quite lucky aren't you?"

Jin Hua didn't understand she looked at Jin Hao blankly.

"Tell me, how many crazy people are in Misty Lake?" he lifted his chin with a knowing look.

Jin Hua was dumbfounded, It seemed that Jin Hao knew something that he didn't know, but Jin Hua still answered Jin Hao's question obediently, "Most of the elders have gone insane over the past few months and some of the other members have also experienced severe delusions they attacked many innocent people without a reason" Jin Hua subconsciously wrapped her arms around herself as she remembers the madness in their face.

The situation in Misty Lake was devastating, many people went crazy, and worse than that they suddenly became extremely violent that one of the elders killed all his wives and daughters thinking they were all demons.

In order to avoid the same thing happening again, some elders who were still healthy gave orders to lock all the mad members in a secret dungeon to hide this fact from outsiders.
