Lory giggles are like a blade poked Nan Yu Wei heart, she gritted her teeth it took every strength she need not strangle Lory in the spot, Lory calm demeanor is like mockery for her, she feel Lory ridiculed her and Nan Yu Wei never been humiliated like this before, she looks away from Lory she afraid she can't control her anger and killed that wretched woman on the spot.
On the other hand, Lory only test the water she wants to know what's make her tick turns out Nan Yu Wei is not as collected as she used to be like the first time there met, so something must have changed and Lory guess is something wrong with her cultivation.
and it got something to do with the Providence Sword, the sword's power coming from the Trinity fragment and the fragments might give the owner some benefit just like the sacred tree. could it be Nan Yu Wei's talent that came from the fragment inside the sword?
The power from providence sword might help Nan Yu Wei to cultivated faster but when Lory holds the sword she awaked the trinity fragments from it dreams and the fragment recognizes Lory as it real master so when Nan Yu Wei touches it anger the trinity fragment so it rejects Nan Yu Wei strongly. That's why without the fragment, NanYu Wei cultivation has regressed to a pitiful level.
Nan Yu Wei must be desperate to have the sword back, she might think her cultivation would be back to normal if she has the sword again, what a pity…the sword is no more, she already absorbed the fragment. What would Nan Yu Wei do if she knew the sword is lost?
'Crazy woman would do crazy thing…..'
"Is that you're maid?" Yang Wei Lan suddenly asks.
Lory needs to lean forward to see Yang Wei Lan's face, she follows Yang Wei Lan's gaze to Ming Yue Yin "She is my maid…." Lory replied with friendly smiles.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYang Wei Lan still not forget the women who can make her beloved tender gaze when he looking at that woman, she had pleaded and begged her father to make an arrangement with Yuan family but Yuan Shao firmly rejects the arrangement firmly he even said he rather leave the Yuan family then mary her, fortunately, no one knows about this except the elder of her family but still its embarrassed her and hurt her heart deeply.
"When I met her at Tancu teahouse I thought she is a noble lady but who knew she just a maid" Yang Wei Lan sneer.
Ming Yue Yin didn't have time to bother Yang Wei Lan she maintained her concentration for Lory safety. But lory irked by Yang Wei Lan's comment, she tilted her head than say "Is she like a maid for you?" she make a vague question.
"Is she not?" Yang Wei Lan snort in contempt.
Nang Yu Wei glance at Lory, she also feel Ming Yue Yin is not just a simple maid and she also feel the maid appearance a bit familiar to her, unfortunately, Nan Yu Wei didn't recognize Ming Yue Yin as the same valiant Empress who fight against the Lu clan, maybe because Nan Yu Wei put too much attention to Zhao Li Xin or perhaps she was traumatized by the lost of her weapon and humiliated by Lory or maybe she just not that observant so she failed to recognize Ming Yue Yin.
"Not everything looks as it seems…" Lory smiles than she sips her tea calmly.
"If she is not a maid why she dresses like a maid, do you want to say she pretend to be a maid?" Nan Yu Wei probed Lory farther.
Lory beautiful big eyes blink a few times "That because she wants to be my maid"
Nan Yu Wei stifles coldly "Miss Luo why you always talk with riddles, can you just speak clearly or are you just want to make a fool of us?"
"Oh, I would not dare" Lory pretend to be stunned than she presses her chest lightly with an earnest expression "I always being honest and I always speak clearly maybe miss Nan has misunderstood my words, I apologize than...." Lory words might sound humble but for Nan Yu Wei it sounds like she mocking her for being a fool.
"Misunderstood?" Nan Yu Wei voice become stern "Just like when you still my divine weapon!" she hit the armchair loudly "Do you know how precious providence sword is, the sword was worship and honor by Sacred mountain peak for hundreds of years and you use Long Ming to took it away from me!" she raised from her seat in anger.
Lory put down her cup of tea on the table gentle without looking anxious "Miss Nan, I think their's something wrong with you're memory" when she said that Girsha flaps her wing he suddenly awoke by Nan Yu Wei murderous aura.
"I don't still you're weapon, the weapon has rejected you, don't you remember?" Lory tilted her head.
Her words shocked everyone in the rooms, they begin to murmur to each other again even the empress's long thin eyebrows gradually furrows, Nan Yu Wei's expression suddenly becomes somber.
"Did I told you to touch you're weapon if you can but in the end, the sword rejects you harshly and you're cultivation regressed ever since, am I wrong? although their's a lot of witnesses who can justify my words, but it might be useless because the witness is from sacred Mountain Peak and Hei Shen sect, people would say they have a conflict of interest so there testimony will not credible, don't you agree Miss nan?"
Lory speaks confidently, she didn't anxious or nervous she speak eloquently every statement she makes is logical and make sense and people begin to believe her and they throw suspicious stare at Nan Yu Wei. Feeling the suspicious glare from other people make Nan Yu Wei infuriated but what make her angry more is how precise Lory guessed is, she becomes terrified how much more Lory knows and who else knows about this.
"You….you speak nonsense!" Nan Yu Wei bit her lips she tries to remain calm if she overreacted she only make other more suspicious.
"Am I?" Lory blinks her eyes innocently than she quickly covers her mouth "Than I'm sorry for my careless words to miss Nan" she makes apologetic smiles but that's smiles only inflame her anger.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You…" Nan Yu Wei clenched her jaws she balled her fist tightly, the calm facades she painstakingly holds almost crumbles luckily the empress suddenly cut in before nan yu Wei make a fool of herself.
"Miss Luo…" the empress suddenly raised her voice slightly, makes everyone inside the room suddenly stiffed.
"Yes, you're majesty" Lory answer calmly and again her calmness irked the empress.
"We don't know what had happened at that time but the fact you are their is undisputed when the holy lady lose her weapon, a lot of people accused you of stealing her weapon, Sacred mountain Peak and Hei Shen are two enormous power and we don't want the fight between the two disrupted our peace, should I propose the solution to end this?" the Empress solemnly said.
"Oh, what are you suggestion you're majesty?" her compliance smile satisfied the Empress.
"You have a quite beautiful pet miss Luo" The Empress stare deviously at Girsha on Lory's laps "Why don't you give you're pets as a peace offering for the Holy Lady" the empress earnestly smiles no one would see the vicious glint in her eyes.
Lory hand froze for a second and her gaze turn cold "You're majesty wants me to gives my friend to compensated something I never do?" Lory quipped as her hand continues stroking Girsha back.
The Empress surprised Lory dare to question her decision, she feel beyond upset but sadly she can't hurt her openly or Zhao Li Xin will have a reason to attack her and The emperor would blame her for being reckless.
"You right, I can't let anyone think I'm being unfair" The Empress sigh, she pinches her chin and pretends to be awry than suddenly she lifts her head "How about this. The Bird is not you're contractual beast so it can be said that beast does not completely belong to you, so what if he was subdued by someone else? Just like providence sword who suddenly abandoned it, master, you can't be mad if you're beast suddenly abandons you" the Empress stifles than she smiles widely.
Lory furrow her eyebrows "You're Majesty thought my bird friend would abandon me?"
"Why don't we see ourselves?" The empress makes triumph smiles, Lory bird didn't look special other then beautiful, powerful beast will exude amount of Qi it depends on there level. The higher there level the more overwhelmed there Qi power around the Beast but the empress feel nothing from The bird Luo Ri Yi brings with her.
Stealing the bird from her grasp is only The empress way to gives Lory a lesson, so she will not be impudent and remember who she is and where she's coming from.
