The Princess And The Lord

Ming Yue Yin then took out a crystal bottle that was slightly larger than the size of her palm, the bottle looked normal from the outside but when light touched its surface, one could see strange rune carved on it.

Ming Yue Yin opened the small bottle cap carefully then suddenly a black shadow dot under the border was sucked into the bottle, after a while Miing Yue Yin quickly closed the bottle again.

Ming Yue Yin examined few of the black leech-like creature wriggling inside the bottle with an expression of disgust.

"Is that the remaining Demon parasite?" Shui Xian asked.

  "Yeah, what about the other demon parasites?"

"It turns to dust when it comes into contact with a weapon made of spirit stone" Shui Xian replied.

Ming Yue Yin breathed a sigh of relief, however, just like Zhao Li Xin, she was also troubled by the lack of options for killing demon parasites while there were very few weapons that spirit stones could make and this Demon container can only be made by Lory. Therefore what would happen if they faced a beast horde that was bigger than this, what would happen if this happened to other countries wh knew nothing about Demon parasites.

"Uncle wants to experiment with this demon parasite, maybe he wants to find another way to kill it" Ming Yue Yin store the bottle back to her spatial ring.

"Well, if my master believes he finds his way," said Cha Hua confidently.

"You really believe in your Lord, don't you?" Ming Yue Yin was amused by her confidence towards Zhao Li Xin.

"Yes, because My Lord is smart and most of all he was very persistent" Cha Hua give assuring reply.

"Yes, when My Lord wants something, he will not stop until he gets  it." Shui Xian also nodded in agreement.

Ming Yue Yin scratched her nose as she couldn't deny it, inwardly she also agreed with them, who is crazy enough to find someone just by their voice and smell? If you put aside the romance and love story between Lory and Zhao Li Xin, it's actually quite a daunting story, luckily they fell in love in the end.

Not long after the battle finally ended, then Fu Ying and his subordinates also came, he glanced at the half-dead Xiao Wan Zu then he looked at the jade pill and Jiang Jin Wei's content expression Fu Ying immediately knew what had happened to Xiao Wan Zu, for a second Fu Ying almost felt sorry for Xiao wan Zu's misfortune.

Fu Ying cupped his fists and knelt in front of the boulder "Your Majesty, we have killed all the Xiao family spies in Sun Jan city"

The whereabouts of many spies from the Xiao family had been known to Ming Yue Yin for quite a while she purposely didn't get rid of them to use them to give false information to the Xiao family, who would have thought that her spies had watched over the Xiao family spies and that was how Ming Yue Yin found out about the coup that Xiao Bo Jie together with several noble families was dissatisfied with her rule.

Ming Yue Yin casually sat on a rock looking at Sun Jan city then she said: "Good, lest anyone know that Sun Jan city is safe for the time being"

The captain looked at Ming Yue Yin blankly he got too many shocks for today, first, there was a strange beast then the Xiao family tried to revolt, then, he saw the King's palace and Hei Shen sect members for the first time and now he saw the empress of his country with his own eyes!

Empress Ming had a youthful appearance but her presence was like that of an old King, just by sitting leisurely with her legs crossed on the boulder she had created it was as if she was sitting on the highest throne looking down on them like ants, the extraordinary charisma radiated from her made the captain and his subordinates overwhelmed with amazement and fear.

Ming Yue Yin noticed the captain's presence, then Ming Yue Yin turned her gaze to the man, even though he looked a bit old but he had already proven his loyalty and bravery, compared to appearance, background, or talent, Ming Yue Yin valued loyalty and courage more because those two things are the most difficult to obtain from subordinates.

"You, what's your name?" Ming Yue Yin pointed at the captain.

The captain immediately woke up from his daze and immediately knelt on one knee and simultaneously with his subordinates they saluted in unison to Ming Yue Yin.

"Greetings to the mighty empress may Your Majesty be blessed with long and prosperous life!"

This was the first time the Hei Shen sect realized that the 'brat' that Lory often teased and play with was the true Empress, because of the way Lory and Zhao Li Xin treated Ming Yue Yin they always forgot Ming Yue Yin's reverent identity.

"Reply Your Majesty, this ordinary soldier's name is Sang Yun, I am the captain of the city gate guards of Sun Jan city!" the captain answered firmly even though his back was drenched in a cold sweat. He feels more nervous facing the empress than hundreds of beasts.

"You have proven your courage and loyalty to the country as well as to this empress. You have also shown extraordinary ability in commanding troops even under the dire circumstances therefore I will raise your position from captain to lieutenant colonel" Ming Yue Yin bestowed her decree and the Su sister who was present immediately noted it as the witness of the decree it only needs imperial seal from Ming Yue Yin to make it official.

The sudden reward stunned Sang Yun, he was almost fifty years old so he didn't expect to have a promotion at this age, this was truly blessed in disguise he quickly kowtowed to Ming Yue Yin "Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty"

"I also rewarded all the soldiers who fought today with bonus ten times the salary, and free medical treatment for your injuries and If any of your comrades died today, send a report to your superiors for military financial support for their family that was left behind" Ming Yue Yin add-in.

Instantly the faces of all the soldiers lit up as they felt their sacrifices today were not in vain and the empress acknowledged their efforts, what more could they hope for soon they all kowtow and praised Ming Yue Yin's benevolence and generosity.

Hence the matter of Sun Jan city ended without too many casualties on their side, the city didn't even have a scratch as their enemy had no chance to enter.

"What about Jing An city?" Jiang Jin Wei asked.

Ming Yue Yin chuckled without the slightest worry in her eyes, "With all the generals under Uncle Fu's leadership and, no one can break through my city beside...he also coming" her cheek slightly blushed.

"He? Aah, he arrived just in time, I guess." Jiang Jin Wei's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Yup, With Yuan Shao's help, I have nothing to worry about!" Ming Yue Yin gave a confident statement.

In Jing An city, Xiao Bo Zhi releases a hybrid beast to destroy the city. He and several military commanders and generals who had defected with him had gathered thousands of troops to attack the capital.

but when the beast approached the city gate, thousands of arrows shot swiftly followed by a hissing sound, and then pierced the space between the hybrid beast's eyes, because of their large size it was not difficult to hit their heads.

the hybrid beasts fell and ended with black smoke coming out of their ears and noses.

Yes, the arrow head is made of spirit stone.. Wu San Bo got the idea to minimize the manufacture of weapons with spirit stones, compared to making swords or daggers making the arrow head is far more efficient.
