"They're's something off…." Zhao Li Xin murmured.

"Milord?" Mong Ki startled but he maintains his composure. ​​

Zhao Li Xin pickup the winecup "The Liu Yan Emperor seems to be quiet, I thought he would do something more…stupid" he sips his wine elegantly.

Mong Ki and Mong Yi sighs inwardly, the news that they found Lory in Ching Su city still hasn't reached them so they don't know if Lory is still alive and well, they not dare make assumption just in cased is a hoaxed news if they're Lord hopes increased but if the news turns out to be a lied they don't know how devastated they're Lord would be and not like normal person Zhao Li Xin didn't know how to handle this kinda loss, he never experience attachment to other people like he felt to Lory so if she loses her again for the 'second time' the result would be unimaginable and so everyone decide to hide Lory news until they found her and bring her to they're Lord face.

"That because Empress Ming Yue Ying suppressed the Liu Yan Kingdom for supporting the Lu Clan, Liang Zu kingdom show their support to our sect and she told everyone Hei Shen is their benefactor so they will support all of our action and condemn the Lu Clan as powerful clan dare to lay their hand to a weak woman who unable to protect herself just for a mere jealousy and even refuse to admit they're fault, it shows the 'real face' of Lu clan people," said Mong Yi.

"The Empress told everyone Lu Yao underhand method to hurt young miss and it make commotion in the public and tainted Lu clan reputation and this accusation to Lu Clan also have been clarified by Jiu Yun sect they also justify Empress Ming accusation and they also show their support to our Sect and they ready to help us anytime we want," said Mong Ki with faint smile.

All of them is people who were helped by Luo Ri Yi they all show they're support not for Hei Shen but rather for Lory herself, Mong Ki could imagine how sad Ming Yue Ying when she heard about what happen to Lory, she's so angry with the Lu clan she blocked the trade agreement between the Liang Zu Kingdom and the Liu Yan Kingdom just to make the emperor of Liu Yan kingdom retract his support to the Lu clan.

Jiu Yun Sect also pressuring Lu clan because more or less they used Yang Xi Ying to hurt Lory so they also not quiet about it, no wonder Lu Clan have to run to Sacred jade peak for help.

Who knew a simple problem like woman jealousy would be escalated become a war between two powerful groups and involved two kingdoms also a lot of sect in the mix, at the end they all blame all of this to Lu Yao and Tang Mei Yi stupid decision, maybe is a good thing they already dead if not how could they face the consequences of they're action.

Zhao Li Xin hear the report with indifferent face, he only feel pain in his heart, he wondered why evil people like him and the Lu Clan could have a long life but kindhearted person like Lory should die, this is not fair the God is not fair so why should he?

"How long until we breach the first gate of Lu clan?" Zhao Li Xin asked with a flat face.

"It takes another three days milord," Mong ki said.

Zhao Li Xin straighten his back "Make it two days, I'm bored" he said lazily.

"Understood Milord!" Mong Ki cupped his fist than he excused himself.

Zhao Li Xin turn quiet again, he becomes even quieter than before he met Lory but he got no purposed at first he wants to heal his poisoned so he wouldn't be dead in the hand of stupid woman like concubine Ying or whoever the real culprit was but after her poison is healed than his purposed is to find the one who heal him the first woman who make him feel something than after he met her he learned that he able to feel a lot of different emotion and the world becomes brighter but than that light is taken from him than he realizes how dark his world was….but the light is gone and he left in the dark.

"Milord, I heard the rumor that the Sacred Peak Mountain searching for someone and they used Lu Clan to search for that person is for exchanged they're assistance against us but we don't know who is that person is and why they use Lu clan and not using their own people?" Mong Yi reports another news.

Zhao Li Xin put down the winecup on the table "It doesn't matter when they come we killed them as simple as that" he raised from his seat "More people would arrive for and they will be stronger than the previous one...Mong Yi if this too much for you I will release you and Mong Ki from you're oath"

Mong Yi falls on his knee "Milord please don't"

Mong Yi pressed his head on the ground "In this lifetime I belong for you, me and my brother belong with you and we will follow you in a good and the bad times, we follow you until we die, that my oath and my brother oath, please don't desert us Milord!" he begged desperately.

Zhao Li Xin turns silent his dark eyes stare at the man who is kowtowing on the ground, his head still pressed on the ground showing his determination, Zhao Li Xin flicked his robes "So be it…" he said calmly than he turns around and walks away.

A simple word from him make Mong Yi heart elated and relief "Thank you Milord!" he kowtows a few time again until Zhao Li Xin figured disappeared.

Lu Jiang Yi shakes his head "No it's good, very good but this pill is very valuable…." He feel apprehensive using the expensive pill because he got nothing to return.

"Than what's the problem? Isn't pill is made to be used…..than used it" Lory shrug her shoulder carelessly, she doesn't understand what bothered him.
