The Princess And The Lord

Elsewhere Lory and Zhao Li Xin were right in the middle of a barren desert as if they were a barrier between a green forest and a volcanic area, Lory could smell the pungent smell of sulfur and hot smoke scraping against her skin.

Unlike Zhao Li Xin the heat only make him stronger on contrary this weakened her, therefore, Lory made circular motions with her hands soon the transparent barrier covered her to block the heat from her.

"You're still wearing the necklace I gave you, right?" Zhao Li Xin asked.

Lory showed me the little bluebell flower pendant that Zhao Li Xin gave her once, "I'm wearing it now, just in case"

Zhao Li Xin smiled smugly, "Although I know you have a powerful Gift but….just in case" maybe he just wanted to think a little no matter if he continued to protect her.

"I see, you also wore the talisman I gave you right?" she narrow her eyes.

Zhao Li Xin then showed the blue diamond amulet hanging around his neck, the diamond shining faintly as a sign of the dark power around them is thicker than normal.

Lory grabbed Zhao Li Xin's talisman, she held the stone between her palms while closing her eyes soon after a light appear and a rune glow within the diamond before slowly disappearing.

"What are you doing now?" Zhao Li Xin asked curiously.

Lory opened her eyes then her beautiful purple eyes curved into a crescent as she smiled "Something that will make it easier for me to track you down if we separate"

"Oh, is that the same as what I did with your necklace?" Zhao Li Xin's face shone with amusement.

"Yes, look at that, we have the same thoughts..." Lory flicked a smile at him.

"We are" Zhao Li Xin holds Lory's hand and then cast his gaze at the mouth of the cave Yin Shan "Are you ready?"

Lory looked back at the capital, he could imagine how chaotic the capital was today, how many victims would fall because he had lived in those days and even worse, even Yang Xi Ying's fate was unclear, if possible he wanted to find Yang Xi Ying together with Li Mo Zhen and the others but unfortunately found the ancient Sword far away. more important.

Zhao Li Xin understood the concern in Lory's heart, she had always been a kind-hearted person even to strangers she only met once let alone to Yang Xi Ying who was more like a sister to her.

"Don't worry, Li Mo Zhen won't let anything happen to his wife besides once we get the sword, we can kill Lazarus and all this evil will be over" Zhao Li Xin reassured her.

[Girl, Lazarus, and Lao Min Na are probably already inside...] Girsha whispered through telepathy.

Lory took a deep breath, she knew this wasn't the time to be hesitating she should focus on her goal, Lory held onto Zhao Li Xin's hand tighter, "Come on, let's end this now!" there was determination in her voice.

"We will end this together" Zhao Li Xin looks at the mountain with eyes as steady as glass

___At Yu Jin city___

Chaos was still going on in Yu Jin city, the once majestic capital was turned into rubble, and corpses were scattered everywhere, both humans and monsters, meanwhile a Demon parasite wiggle out from the Beast corpses searching for another host to dwelling when suddenly the parasite stabbed by the tip of the sword.

The Parasite Demon let out a high pitch squealing before turning to dust, Tao Ji Fang's brows twitched in disgust, who would have thought a creature like this exist in this world.

Suddenly he was startled by one of the subordinates that run toward him in a hurry, "Master, bad news Master...Young Master, Young Master has gone!"

It feels like being struck by lightning in broad daylight Tao Jiang was stunned for a second before he managed to squeeze words from his trembling lips "Wh...what?!" Tao Ji Fang is almost unable to hold his sword.

Not long after Yang Zhou came dragging several men with him and then threw the man in front of Tao Ji Fang like a piece of trash, "They saved their duty and left the young master while saving their own life!" Yang Zhou gritted his teeth in anger.

Although Tao Bing Wen is spoiled, weak, and a bit stupid but the nature of the boy is basically very kind, loyal, and honest although he was a little naive but that's because Tao Bing Wen is overprotected by his parents and recently Tao Bing Wen has started to change his attitude for the better, secretly his hope toward Tao Bing Wen increasing but who would have thought that this would happen.

These people were actually members of the Sword Saint sect, they were given orders to protect Tao Bing Wen but these people were dissatisfied with being given the task to babysit such a useless young master therefore when the situation got dire they didn't hesitate to leave Tao Bing Wen.

You guys leave me alone!" Tao Ji Fang's face was ravaged with rage his black eyelashes flashing as if he was going to swallow them whole.

The people who left Tao Bing Wen trembled like scared animals they didn't dare to look at Tao Ji Fang, it was a misfortune that they accidentally ran into Yang Zhou when they were surrounded by dozens of monstrous monsters, when Yang Zhou and the other members rescued them for a second they feel relieved but then Yang Zhou realized that Tao Bing Wen was not with them.

When Yang Zhou asked about Tao Bing Wen's whereabouts they tried to dodge but Yang Zhou knew something was wrong with their story, Yang Zhou used every means to make them spill the beans as expected their story started to crack finally they had no choice but, to tell the truth.

"Ma...Master, we are guilty, please forgive...forgive us"

"Forgive us, Master, we didn't mean to abandon young master!"

"Master, we're just scared....we don' meant to?"

One by one they banged their foreheads on the ground repeatedly pleading for mercy even though in their hearts they knew it was futile, Tao Ji Fang might be a loving husband and a dotting father but he was a strict ruler, he was firm to the point of being merciless and ruthless after all if he was a weak leader he wouldn't able to brought Swor Saint sect to become one of the strongest sects on the Hwang Wu continent.

Tao Ji Fang grabbed the man's neck and hissed coldly, "Scared? What do you think my young son is feeling now?" anger surged through his whole being "You have one job....is to protect my son, that's all you have to do but you failed...." Tao Ji Fang tightened his jaw, The son that his wife painstakingly gave birth to, the son he had longed for, how could he tell his wife he lose his son and at the hands of his own men nonetheless?

He knew many people were dissatisfied with his Son, he knew many people were jealous and envying his Son's position but he ignored them thinking they will not dare to harm his Son beside is good to motivate Tao Bing Wen to improve himself, but he was wrong....very-very wrong.

Tao Ji Fang tightens his grip on the man's neck until the man's face turns white and red when his airway is blocked, the panic raised in his throat he hit Tao Ji Fang's hand in order to free himself from his grip but Tao Ji Fang's hand did not budge.

Tao Ji Fang's face remains stoic as he looks at the man struggle for air desperately, the grip becomes tighter and tighter until the sound of bones breaking loudly is heard.

Soon the light in the man's eyes dimmed and his hands fell limp at his side, Tao Ji Fang threw the man's lifeless body among the other traitor as those who saw it shuddered in horror as their faces lost their color knowing they would suffer the same fate.

From a distance they heard the roars of Hybrid Beasts marching towards them, Tao Ji Fang lowered his gaze to the light in his eyes dimming within he looked ten years older, how could he not have just found out he had lost his only child, he should have sent his child away from this continent after received Hei Shen Sect's warning but he was so overconfident he thought he could protect his son.

"Feeding them the Beast" Tao Ji Fang's voice filled with malice.

"NO, Master please forgive us!"

"Master, please this is not my fault I just follow their order!"

"Master please, NOOO!!"

Fear rushes over them like a dark suffocating wave as they were dragged away, they pleaded desperately but Tao Ji Fang turned his head while Yang Zhou signed the other members to quickly drag them away. Everyone who followed orders without saying anything in fear would provoke Tao Ji Fang's wrath.
