The Princess And The Lord

Lory is not weird in bad ways on the contrary she looks….oddly beautiful, Yes, she looks different but when he remembers the story he heard when he was a child about a fairy or diety about their odd and mesmerizing beauty he imagines it would be something like her.

Pale skin like snow, dark bluish wavy hair like a blooming flower, clear big eyes with purple iris-like an amethyst gem and small pink full lips, her face is small and delicate and when she's sleeping she looks like a jade statue, flawless and unreal, secretly he was glad that Lory hides her appearance this far if not, who knew how many men would be spellbound by her unique beauty.

"There's nothing weird with your face" Zhao Li Xin chuckles as he pulls the blanket away from her face "And you've been sleeping for days and nothing on your face that I haven't seen before so why bother to hide it now?"

Her pink lips pouted cutely, well at least for Zhao Li Xin she looks cute you want to get out of here?" he asked softly.

Lory nodded, she wondered what it was like outside, Zhao Li Xin helped her stand on her feer then she led her outside and they descended on the spiral staircase, Lory then saw an amount of precious gemstone and gold scattered away on the floor just like trash because the casket was too full, Lory never blinded by luxury but still, she was shocked by so many treasures inside the room.

"Is it all… yours?" Lory is blown away with so much gold in one room as if she lives inside the 'King Midas' castle, this place is insane!

"Yes…" he replied casually "You like it? just take whatever you like…" he said indifferently.

"No, I'm good…" she shrugs her shoulder.

If there is anything Lory and Zhao Li Xin have in common is their lack of interest in wealth but strangely wealth always sticks on them like glue whether they wanted it or not.

"Where did you find all this gold?" she wondered since she rarely saw him working other than cultivating or hearing reports from his subordinates with half-absent expression, Lory never saw him doing anything business-like.

"Some gold is has been here from the start and some of it I got it from my business that Wu San Bo took care of" Zhao Li Xin then led her out of the bling-bling room since his eyes started to get hurt.

"Oh, how's the business going? you never said anything about it..." asked Lory as she rubbed her eyes because the bling's made her eyes a little bit blurry.

"Normal as usual, we have moved our business from the Jiang Wei Kingdom to the Liangzu Kingdom and we thrive even more since we got the 'brat' approval to expand our business, well that was expected since that means we help Liangzu economy as well, in the end, is a win-win negotiation for both of us," said Zhao Li Xin.

"So, in short, you got richer…" Lory squints her eyes.

"WE got richer" he emphasizes the first word.

Zhao Li Xin opened the door and the warm wind graze her face Lory was stunned by the sight in front of her, THERE'S A SEA! They are in the middle of the sea! turns out they are inside a golden pagoda, the whole pagoda is made of gold from the top to the bottom, which is insane! who built the place and why the hell they are on the island in the middle of the sea? Lory was so dumbfounded, her mouth slightly loose in shocked

"Are you sure we are inside the ring?" Lory was astonished, what kinda sorcerer could create a place like this?

Zhao Li Xin patted her head to reassure her but suddenly the seawater rippled violently then something burst out from beneath the sea, the first thing she saw was giant red scales glittering as the light touch the scales surface, suddenly the water splashed on her but Zhao Li Xin quickly covers her face with his sleeve before wetting her face.

Lory subconsciously grabbed Zhao Li Xin's arms as two giant red ruby eyes stared at her intensely "You finally awakened" Huo Long says in relief

Lory's mouth opened slightly she was shocked because the creature sounded gentle, but why he looks awkward in front of her?

"Thank you…..for your concern?" Lory still doesn't know how to react in front of the creature.

The Dragon's eyes turn soft "I'm sorry for scaring you, My name is Huo Long I'm the Azure Dragon who resides in this boy's rings" he said with a low voice.

"Dragon?" Lory was stupefied, she unconsciously held her breath when the image of Nazareth suddenly flashed in her mind, and then she got nervous.

Huo Long seemed to notice the change in Lory's expression "Wait, I'm a good Dragon, look! I won't hurt you I never hurt anyone, no wait there was a guy….but he pissed me off first, and the other guys, No, wait! Trust me, I'm a good Dragon!" the more he spoke the more he got flustered and Zhao Li Xin didn't try to help him either he even stare at him with doubt when he said he never hurt anyone.

Huo Long never like humans other than Zhao Li Xin but after he knew about Lory and what she had been through he can't help to attracted by her, it had been a very long time since he met a human with a bright soul like her so he can't help wants to get to know her better and moreover, she is the woman that could change that ice block.

Huo Long didn't want her to hate him because she thought he is the same creature as the mad dragon in her world that was responsible for the destruction of her world and the deaths of everyone she loved.

Lory never saw a Dragon in panic mode before and he doesn't look like a dragon that she knows of, the appearance and the body shape of this dragon are totally different from the dragon in her world especially those gentle warm eyes.

"I believe you…" Lory said softly.

Huo Long who was in a state of panic suddenly paused and sigh in relief "Thank You, why don't I transform myself so we can talk easily" Huo Long body engulf with light, and a few seconds later a man with lavish red robes, red hair and listening golden eyes appear in front of Lory "How do I look?" he opened her arms and posed like a model in front of Lory.

Lory's mouth twitched then she gives a forced smile "You…..look HOT…" Lory raised her thumbs awkwardly.

"Annoying!" Zhao Li Xin cut in.

"Thank you, thank you!" he smiled proudly while ignoring Zhao Li Xin's disdained gaze "Let me show you around, this is your first time right? here take the map, see I marked all the good spot in this place" Huo Long acted like a professional 'tour guide' he make sure she knows all the best places in this realm.

"Look, here the spot of the hot spring, next to it is the fiery fruit orchard, and here is the place od red flaming flower garden, the flower is so beautiful like fire but it won't hurt you, by the way, you like flower don't you? ok, good, and this spot…"

Zhao Li Xin's mouth twitched, he was shocked by the disparity treatment between him and Lory! he remembered the first time he came here Huo Long threatened to eat him then he tried to trick Zhao Li Xin to be his servant and where was this flower garden, he never saw it before!

"By the way do you see Girsha?" Lory asks Zhao Li Xin.

"Don't worry he is here, he checks a few times before you awake?" said Zhao Li Xin.

"Don't worry princess, the great ancestor love this place, he has been flying all day" Huo Long laughed happily, it's an honor for him that an ancient creature like Girsha values his 'home' in a beast world Girsha status is like a King because the ancient blood on his veins is a lot older and noble than any creature he ever met.

Even though Huo Long knew about Girsha's existence but meeting face to face with him personally put too much pressure on his faint heart. Is the same feeling as a commoner meeting with the emperor he almost fells on his knees when they met the first time, no wonder the baby phoenix becomes like that is good enough that the bird didn't die from utter shock.

"Is that so?" Lory looks up, the sky is vast and wide and the realm is filled with strange energy she was certain Girsha would having fun in this kind of place.
