The Princess And The Lord

"Five hundreds of Gold Lion soldiers have infiltrated the Yun Dao city while the rest one thousand other soldiers waiting outside the city, and they are all equipped with the new weapon as you order" Jiang Ji Wei cupped his fist firmly.

"Send an urgent message to your people at the spirit stone quarry, tell them that young madam Guardian beast would come and no one should disturb him," Zhao Li Xin said calmly as he crossed his leg and leaned his back comfortably.

"Right away, Milord!" Jiang Jin Wei signed his subordinate who was in the corner of the room to carry out the Lord's order, the man with silver armor cupped his fist before he leaves the room in hurry.

"I have another report milord, the crown prince subordinated was able to steal a few pills from the Queen Dowager cabinet, it was the medicine given by Lao Min Na after I conduct experiment I able to conclude that the pills have strong ability to influenced the recipient mind," Jin Hao said with wary looked, then Jin Hao continued "Although the pill provide benefit on one body just like normal medicine should do, but if someone takes the pills regularly it will slowly affect their mind, it will increase their paranoia, fear, and aggressiveness that will lead to excessive violent" 

"Just like the hybrid beast" Wu San Bo stunned.

Jin Hao shook his head "Not that extreme, but it similar"

"I never heard of anyone who could make drugs that can heal and deathly at the same time, why doesn't anyone notice about this?" Wu San Bo said in deep concern, not entirely because he cared about other people well being but because he feared the chaos that would happen in the future.

"Well, like I said before the drug did give benefit to one body and the side effect was not instant people might think the person was in a bad mood or influence by their sickness so one would suspect the drugs" Jin Hao shrugged.

Jin Hao gracefully flicks his face and muttered to himself "Even I almost missed it, luckily I know what Lao Min Na could do so I conduct the experiment thoroughly" Jin Hao exasperated when he remembered he almost missed the crucial evidence if Lory didn't tell him about Lazarus he would never expect this either, a drug that could heal and harmed their victim at the same time, he has to admit that idea is genius.

'A wolf in sheep skin'

"Effect one mind…." Zhao Li Xin stroked his lips as he contemplated "There something Girsha told me when he talks about Lory…"

"Is there something else?" Jin hao scrunched up his face, Is he literally still missed something?

"Girsha once said to me, the scariest things about Lazarus was not his destructive power but his ability to control the mind of people, but for him to able to control someone mind could only do if the person accepts a part of the demon itself if Lao Min Na put something that belongs to Lazarus inside the pill and elixir that she made what would you think would happen to all of the people that consumed Lao Min Na medicine?" Zhao Li Xin narrows his eyes. 

"Milord, do you think they all under Lao Min Na influence?" Bei Li Yan gasped in horror.

"No, Not Lao Min Na, it was Lazarus...." Jin Hao's faces turned ashen, the idea of Lazarus slowly creep into the world made him feel restless.

Bei Li Yan was not a sentimental man, he also far from benevolence and kind but he still dumbfounded by what Lao Min Na had done, Jiang Jin Wei, Jin Hao, and the Mong brother's expression also not good.

They are not Saint but they will not send random people in the hands of a demon, what if the recipient of the drugs were innocent children, the elderly, or simple women who just want to get better, what would happen with them, how could Lao Min Na lived with that?

Zhao Li Xin took a deep breath "This is just an  assumption, we need Lory to confirm that…" 

However, if this is true then Zhao Li Xin understanding of Lazarus will get deepened again, not only the demon are strong and merciless but he also slick and cunning, maybe all Lao Min Na knowledged came from Lazarus, maybe the whole planed came from Lazarus and Lao Min Na was nothing but a chess piece that moves by Lazarus order, if that so that would explain a lot about Lao Min Na sudden talent. 

"There also alarming news Milord" Mong Ki abruptly chime in "After I left Lao Min Na, there was a rumor among her own people that Lao Min Na suddenly disappeared"

"Maybe she knew we watch her moves, even if we can track her, we can track her people and the result will be the same so she left her people….it seems she planned something big" Zhao Li Xin stroke his chin as he ponders but he didn't look scared on contrary he rather amused.

"She came for us…" Jin Hao concluded.

Zhao Li Xin smirk "I believe so…"

"What about Lazarus?" Bei Li Yan looks rather anxious, he's not afraid of Lao Min Na or her hybrid beast but Lazarus is a different matter, that demon is the only reasoned Lao Min Na's head didn't separate from her body yet. 

"We'll see…" Zhao Li Xin calmly said, even though is a big risk but he was curious what would Lazarus do this time.

"The boy survive?" 

"Yes, elder sister" 

Two beautiful women were sat around the wooden table without the present their servants, even though they are in their late thirty but they still look beautiful and youthful with supple and firm skin just like a woman in their mid-twenty, the two women have a similar appearance but they have a distinct charmed when one of them looked graceful and gentle while the other looks haughty but elegant. 

They were the Zi clan's daughter, Zi Yi Ru and Zi Quan Mei. Zi Yi Ru came to ask the matter about Zhao Li Xin, she wanted to know how Zhao Li Xin is still alive and well, didn't Zi Quan Mei promised her that the boy will have short and painful life. How could he not only look perfectly healthy but he was also a cultivator.

On the other hands, Zi Quan Mei was in closed-door cultivation for five years so she didn't know what happened during that times, the last thing she knew about Zhao Li Xin, his life in the Jiang Wei Kingdom was awful not only he was shunned and hated by his own mother and the emperor he also belittled and shunned by the imperial family and official, he was constantly sicked and bedridden almost his life, Zi Quan Mei was sure Zhao Li Xin will not live long.

That's why he never pay attention to Zhao Li Xin life, she never sent her people to watch Zhao Li Xin either since she thought it was a wasted of time so is hard for her to believed Zi Yi Ru words "Are you sure, he is Qin Mu Yi Son?" she looked at her younger sister with a complex expression.

"Of course, he looks similar to my husband how could it be wrong?" Zi Yi Ru feel upset, did her elder sister think she was stupid.

"That can't be true, he supposed to be dead right now, perhaps someone cured him? but that impossible! That boy was only a sick prince!" Zi Quan Mei still unable to believed that Zhao Li Xin is able to survive this long. 

"Elder sister, what do you mean prince….I'm talking about Lu Xin the wretched boy, why are you talking about some prince?" Zi Yi Ru perplexed because she thought Zi Yi Ru's mind was somewhere else.

This time Zi Quan Mei is the one who looked baffled "Lu Xin, who is Lu Xin? Qin Mu Yi's son's name was not Lu Xin….what are you talking about?" Zi Quan Mei and Zi Yi Ru stare at each other with the same confused expression, do they talk about the same person?

"But….but he said his name was Lu Xin?" Zi Yi Ru's eyes widened in shock as panic surged through her.

"No, that boy's name was Zhao Li Xin, not Lu Xin, he was the abandoned sickly prince of the Jiang Wei Kingdom!" Zi Quan Mei shook her head, she realized something wasn't quite right.

"You mean… Zha…Zhao Li Xin the sixth Prince of Jiang Wei kingdom!" Zi Yi Ru was frightened down to her feet she has to grip the edged of the table to prevent her from falling.

"Yes.." Zi Quan Mei didn't understand why her sister overreacted.

Zi Yi Ru's face turned white as a sheet and her body starts to tremble "Zhao Li Xin, that can't be…Long Ming!"

Zhao Li Xin identity was only discovered three years ago when Zi Quan Mei was in closed-door cultivation so she didn't know about this matter, she was too conceited and underestimated Zhao Li Xin resilient, she thought the pained from the poison and the ostracized by his family and society enough to break Zhao Li Xin apart, he thought it's enough to kill the little boy but she didn't know that she only make him stronger than he ever be.

Before she enters closed-door cultivation Zi Quan Mei did hear a little about Long Ming's infamous reputation but she never related Long Ming with Zhao Li Xin, that was ridiculous! 

Meanwhile, her people forgot to tell her about the recent news because they were drawn in celebration after Zi Quan Mei reached Sage level, so no one told her about this but it wasn't their fault because Zi Quan Mei never told her subordinated to pay attention to Zhao Li Xin and not many people in her sect know she involved the matter with Qin family, not even Bai Xue knew about this.

Overall, Zhao Li Xin was lucky because of Zi Quan Mei's recklessness.

"Was Zhao Li Xin knew Long Ming, is Long Ming who cured Zhao Li Xin?" Zi Quan Mei was still unable to digest the information. The last time she saw Zhao Li Xin when he was twelve, the boy looked skinny and paled, he looks very frail as if he would fall when the wind blows to hard on him, so how could she related that weak boy with the infamousLord like Long Ming.

Zi Yi Ru becomes frantic as panic overwhelmed her, he massaged her temple and cried "Zhao Li Xin is Long Ming!"
