The Princess And The Lord

Zhao Li Xin wrapped his hand on Lory's shoulder "Something bothering you…"

Lory eyes remain on the carved on the door "The letter said about a meteor that weakens the beast, I think the meteor is trinity fragments, my fragments….." Lory leans her head on his shoulder "That beast was hurt because of my fragments, he might hate me, but I need to go inside to get the remaining fragments" Lory grumble to herself, she doesn't know what should she do.

What if she accidentally released the angry first kind?

This world will fall in chaos like her world, she can't responsible for the calamity befall to this world but with Lazarus lurking and waiting in the dark, what choice does she have?

"What should I do?" she looks at Zhao Li Xin as she feel lost for what decision she should take.

"I don't like it when you look depressed like that," he said with a frown but his word filled with indulgent, Zhao Li Xin stroked her head dotingly "If something happens, I will take responsibility," he said lightly as if it was nothing.

"You can't do that" Lory disgruntled as she looks at him.

"Yes, I can! I'm a tyrant remember" Zhao Li Xin chuckles. He was used to be hated by the society he had no qualm about it, especially if it's for his princess. He can die for her so what a big deal being hated by the entire world and after all that feeling is mutual.

"No!" Lory hit Zhao Li Xin's chest "Stupid Lord!" she is obviously annoyed. She will never let anyone take the blame for her especially Zhao Li Xin, people have misunderstood him too much.

"When you finish the love bickering, take a look at this!" Girsha rolls his eyes.

"What's up?" Lory looks into direction where Girsha points with his beak.

"Keyhole" Girsha shortly reply.

"What The….." Lory swallows her cursed as she tries to remain calm, she takes a deep breath and massages her temples, but is no use, she is beyond agitated "How the hel* we find a key in this SHIT HOL*S!" she cursed to the ceiling.

Just when she finishes venting her anger, she hears an earth-shattering roar, Lory jolted in surprise. Zhao Li Xin put her behind her in a protective manner while Girsha perch on Lory's shoulder "Why don't we asked to the old residence here" he said jokingly.

"Ah, shut up!" Lory scoffed.

Lory raised her palm and the ice around them turn to water droplets then engulf them, instantly they figure disappear in thin air. This is the same camouflage spell she used when she hid from Chen Hu Yin.

The giant beast enters his nest, the beast becomes furious because his nest wrecked, the beast vents his anger by hitting the wall and roaring in raged as he bares his Long sharp teeth. Zhao Li Xin and the beast eyes meet but the beast eyes look through him only then Zhao Li Xin realizes the beast didn't saw them.

Zhao Li Xin looks at Lory with widening eyes, Lory make smug face then wink her eyes. Zhao Li Xin make a sign as he questions her if the beast could hear them or not.

Lory shakes her head, she make a hushed sigh in her lips. With her small amount of mana, she can only create a thin barrier that she created from water, the barrier function as a two-way mirror so the beast can't see them but they can see the beast, sadly the barrier is too thin so if they make a sound that beast will hear them.

[Why that thing look so angry?] Lory disgruntled as she watches the beast throwing tantrum.

[Normaly when you got home and see your house wrecked you will get furious] Girsha stifles.

Lory nod if Girsha says it that way she cannot disagree [You right, but….isn't Zhao Li Xin lost his home numerous times, he seem doesn't bother with it" Lory peek a glance at Zhao Li Xin beautiful side face.

[I said Normally, emphasize the words 'Normal'] 

[Aaah…right] Lory nods in agreement.

Zhao Li Xin didn't know that his princess and her bird is talking bad about him through telepathic, He observed the furious beast as he calculated the strength between them then something caught his eyes. he patted Lory's head to get her attention then he points at his teeth then points at the beast. Lory stares at the beast confusedly, she doesn't know what Zhao Li Xin means.

Zhao Li Xin then throw a pebble to the beast face, when a sage cultivator throws something is not a simple throw but more like a bullet, the Peebles hit the beast temples hard. The pain agitated the beast, it roars furiously the beast giant jaw open widely as he bares his teeth and long fangs.

Lory and Girsha squint their eyes, they thought the saw something between the beast front teeth. Her legs become limp, she unconsciously grabs Zhao Li Xin sleeves, Lory wants almost burst to cry from what she saw.

"T…th…that" Lory index finger trembles as she points to the beast.

"I think so..." on the contrary Zhao Li Xin was remain calm.

"Lory, please tell me you didn't see what I saw" Girsha perplexed.

"How could it stuck there?" Lory weakly whines.

"Well. That thing eat everything isn't it" Zhao Li Xin said indifferently.

But Girsha lost his composure so he screams "HOW THE HELL THAT KEY STUCK ON THE BEAST TEETH!"

'WRAAAAAAAR!!' the beast roar when he heard Girsha loud voice, but the beast saw no one so become frantic and hit everywhere aimlessly.

Lory scratch her head "Aaah, FU*K This!" Lory stomps her feet exasperated and the mirror around them crumbles into a puddle of water and the snow ape beast could see them.

"I'm gonna bash your head!" Lory points her dagger toward the Beast with bloodshot eyes.

The beast marches towards them at high speed as he let out a thunderous roar, Zhao Li Xin carry Lory then make a long leap, he bound between the half wrecked ice pillar while the beast chassed them in frenzy.

"Li Xin, can you transfer the little cub back to your spatial ring?" 

"Oh, yes I can" he looks at Lory as he just remembers about the little cub existence, with one swoop the little cub disappeared and safely transfer to his spatial ring.

'Then why you make me carry the little cub all this time?' Lory stares at Zhao Li Xin with incredulous looks, but she forgot that no one asked her to carry the little cub, not even the little cub himself.

"Put me down, it's time to fight that giant ape!" Lory nudged Zhao Li Xin collar.

"NO, you should hide!" he strongly rebuked. 

But Lory stares at him with the cute expression "And miss all this fun" she grinned mischievously then jumps from Zhao Li Xin arms "NO WAY!" she hit the ice and the ground and icicle appear from the ground and pierce the beast feet and arms.

"GOT YA!" Lory exclaimed excitedly.

On the other side, Zhao Li Xin facepalm and Girsha patted his head with his wings.

"There-there"
