The Princess And The Lord

Shin Jiu is so happy he becomes Hei Shen member and soon he will visit the Underground Palace, the Hei Shen elusive Head Quarter that no one knows no wonder because the place is underground, Lory than told him how big and grand the underground palace is, she promised him that place will never make him bored even if he locked inside that place for years.

At that place, Shin Jiu would be provided with the best tools people could only dream of for cultivating and learning the only downside is Lu Jiang Yi his Grandfather can't accompany him because the secrecy of the underground place, Shin Jiu feel nervous slightly but he understands he has to be strong if he wants to survive so accept the condition and he wouldn't feel too lonely with three sacred beasts allowed to come with him, with this Lu Jiang Yi can also relaxed.

Bei Li Yan and Jin Hao also leave back to they're duties leaving just Lory and Zhao Li Xin inside the study room. Lory sips her tea than she smiles sweetly at Zhao Li Xin "Thank you for accepting my disciple"

"Is there need thank you between us?" said Zhao Li Xin slightly disappointed she still acted courteously in front of him.

Lory giggles watching him sulking, she put down the teacup than she peck Zhao Li Xin cheek "This is your reward for being generous" Lory grinned.

The smack from her lips automatically lifted his mood "I don't know I would be given such rewards, then I will make you thankful with me all the time" he pulls her head closely than he kissed her lips softly, its a slow kissed he nimble her lips gently, Lory mind become blank she can't hear anything but her strong heartbeat, he caresses her napes make her tingling all over her body she feel like mush, Zhao Li Xin take advantage of her limp body he pushes her down lay down on the sofa.

After few minutes of fooling around Lory force herself to push him slightly because her top already falls under her shoulder showing only her 'dudou' and with slender shoulder, Zhao Li Xin groaned exasperatedly not to her but to himself, why he couldn't control himself when he with her? he pulls himself from Lory reluctantly than he helped her to sit and fixed her dress first.

While he fixed her dress Lory gulp when he sees his bare chest behind his crumple collar, Zhao Li Xin gloats when he realized her passionated glare to his bare skin "You can touch more if you like it" he tased with a seductive smile.

"Shut up, I already had"Lory embarrassed he caught her red-handed.

"Then what stop you? Touch more if you like, is yours afterall" he whispers on her ears when his lips touch her earlobes lory thought her heart is jumping out of her chest.

"Stop joking!" she huffed, just wait until she can get rid of this mark than she would 'eat' this beautiful man clean from top to the bottom. Lory puffed her cheeks while fixing her messy hair.

Zhao Li Xin somehow has a comb in his spatial rings he takes out the comb then he helps her comb her hair and fixed her hairpiece calmly, it becomes a natural habit for him. Only a very close aide who knows about his weird hobby and it gives shiver to everyone who knows about it so no one dares to talk about it. they treat it like a bad omen.

"I got the old map from General Yuan this morning" Zhao Li Xin suddenly said.

"Oh, the map to the crimson Lightning sword?" Lory guessed.

"Yes, that the one" he finishes fixing her hairpiece "I show it to that old Lizard, Huo Long, he make sure the authenticity but we only have two-piece from the original eight-piece"

Lory turn around her head "So we need six more?"

"Yes, but we don't know who else owned this map but Huo Long said there is a record about this sword, the owner of this sword leaving this piece of the map to his subordinated but we don't know who are they so we need to investigated this piece of record"

Zhao Li Xin suddenly quiet, Lory watched him with a frown "Why I feel there would be a problem?"

He takes a deep breath "Because the place of that record is at Sacred Mountain peak Head Quarter"

"That's not a problem that is a huge problem" lory rubbed her forehead tiredly "Can we send someone to investigated"

"I'm afraid they would know and if they know what are we looking for they might investigate it themselves and that's not good for us," said Zhao Li Xin.

"Who else knows about this map?" this matter just got more complicated.

Zhao Li Xin pinch his chin he immersed on his thought "You, me, my King palace and….Lao Min Na"

"How could she know about this, we wouldn't know this if not because Huo long mentions it" Lory feel perplexed, why Lao Min Na seems to know a lot of things, Lory knew Lao Min Na for quite sometimes and she knew Lao Min Na never left her dilapidated courtyard only the last two years she finally able to leave her courtyard but she has to sneak around so she can't leave for too long if not someone would notice her absence. So how could she know so much?

"I don't know, you're not the only one wondering about that" Zhao Li Xin try to unmask the power behind her but until now he still can't figure it out.

"But at least we have upper hand because the map that Lao Min Na have is faked is a forgery made by Yuan Shao to deceived Lao Min Na, fortunately, he doesn't like her and he becomes suspicious with the valued of the map so he make forgery and keeps the real one just in case"

"Why Yuan Shao hated Lao Min Na in the first place?" Lory was baffled, Lao min Na is so beautiful is not exaggerated to say she is one of the most beautiful women in the world, she could understand if Zhao Li Xin hates Lao Min Na because his weird nature but why Yuan Shao also harbor the same hatred?

"I think is because of her eyes…." Zhao Li Xin cover his mouth in utter disgusted "Greed, so much greed, hatred, hunger as if she swallows the whole world and still couldn't satisfied her, can you feel it when that woman staring at you?" he drinks his wine to get rid his revulsion from imagine Lao Min Na face.

Lory lean her head on the couch "I wonder if Lao Min Na told other people? what about that man…. Jin...Jin Kai from the Misty lake, she would need a lot of help to find this map so it's not weird if she used Misty Lake power"

"I don't know how much she would tell Jin Kai, she is a paranoid person so I don't believe she would tell Jin kai everything" Zhao Li Xin takes a seat next to Lory than he leans his head on the top of her head "I need to figure it out how to infiltrated sacred mountain Peak place"

"Is it so hard to infiltrated the place?" Lory asked.

"They are very careful, my spies still can't enter the upper residence even after spend three years inside that place"

"Upper residence?" Lory stunned.

"Yes, that place is called the cloud city because the place is near the top of the mountain, is like a small city inside the mountain, and it divided to three, the lower place is for commoner and merchant, on the middle layer is for high-rank family and disciple of Sacred Mountain Peak and the top layer is for the inner disciple, the elder and the ruler of sacred mountain Peak"

"And we must find whatever record in that place" Lory make along heaved, what an arduous job.

"My spies said the record probably at the forbidden Library on the top layer inside the private Xie family library," said Zhao Li Xin as if he tells good news.

"That would make things easier…" she sarcastically said.

Zhao Li Xin chuckles, he rubs his cheeks on her head "at least we know where to search" he comforts her.

"But how we get the top layer, you're spy already their for three years and he unable get to the middle layer how long we need to get to the top layer" Lory whined in desperate.

Zhao Li Xin plays with Lory's finger while muttering with a soft voice "I don't have idea…..yet"
