Chapter 159: Sung clan
Chapter 159: Sung clan
In a forest, outside the Shizi Empire, with the illumination of moonlight, one could see a man wearing white robe laced with gold, his waist tied with a red jade amulet was standing on top of a coffin tree. The cold night wind, making his long hair and white robe, sway with it.
The usual playfulness from the man's face was gone and if Gao Lan Mei could see him at that moment, she would've wondered, if he was the same happy go lucky Fa Li, that her uncle liked a lot.
He immediately raised all his senses when he noticed the scent of opium poppy in the air, using his ability to check the entire area but was not able to find anyone else in the forest aside from him.
After a while, an angelic voice said, behind him, "That's some nice view." The smell of the opium poppy was still strong, lingering in the air, especially coming from the woman.
Fa Li froze and turned around, to look at the alluring lady behind him, he smiled charmingly, but his eyes did not show any warmth, "Sung Zhi Ruo..." uttering softly like a man that had not seen his lover for a long time.
He had left Gao Shen and the rest earlier, as he received a message that Sung Zhi Ruo was on her way to the Mortal Domain.

The woman was undoubtedly beautiful, with her angelic face, she could be easily labelled as one of the most beautiful, in the Immortal Domain.
The most women her age would act shyly and demure but Sung Zhi Ruo couldn't be compared to others.
Wearing purple sleeveless robes, with the front of it hanging low making it very easy for anyone to take a peek on the valley of her breast, any man could get allured like prey in a spider's web. The woman being a spider, luring and then gobbling everything until none is left.
She also heavily smoked opium poppy due to her sickness. Her smoking pipe was always between her lips when not a lot of people were around and only removed it for a short period of time, when she needed to pretend to be normal, like the rest.
So what sort of sickness will need someone to regularly take a drug, that would normally make a mortal die quickly?
It was pure madness. All the evil things that she did were always being covered by her clan, because of her sin of madness and the only way for her to be as normal as the rest was, to keep on smoking opium poppy.
If others were afraid of the curse madness, Sung Zhi Rou will welcome it like the best gift of her life, if ever someone was angry enough to act on revenge.
Just being close to the woman, Fa Li knew he was playing a dangerous game, but he had no other choice left. It was necessary.
"Did you travel so far just to visit me alone?" he asked softly, wanting to know very badly if she was alone. He almost cringed on the fake warmth laced in his voice.
"She is not alone." another man spoke, voice harsh laced with mockery. Like saying that Fa Li was stupid to expect her being alone.
Which was one of Fa Li's problems, it was very difficult to detect the presence of any member of the Sung clan.
Fa Li was not sure when did the man arrived, "Elder Gu, where have you been?" He cupped his fist and made a slight bow out of respect.
Elder Gu's was a lean man, taller than Fa Li, both of his hands were at his back while holding a wooden cane.
The cane was heavily designed by colourful runes and on both ends, black crystals glimmered when enough light hits it.
