A few days later after Mong Yi poison Nan yu qi for the second time her condition worsened, because her skin was not healed yet from the previous poison it becomes uglier after she infected the second time, the rash is increasing her face turns red and slightly black like sunburn then the acne and pimples appear on her used to be flawless skin, not even Nan Yu Qi herself dare to look at her own face right now.
Frustrated and disgust by her own face she smashes all mirror in her room, she doesn't let anyone enter her courtyard only a few of her personal maidservant.
She refused anyone, including hee parents, and especially Xie Hua Ling, she knew man love a beautiful face so how could she show her face in front of him even though he said he doesn't mind but how could she trust him. Xie Hua Ling had left his childhood sweetheart Chen Yi Xuan to raised his position it was obvious how selfish Xie Hua Ling was as a man, there's no way Nan yu Qi would belive his words.
Even though Nan Yu Qi didn't has a deep feeling for Xie Hua Ling but she will not let herself thrown away like trash and let other people mocked her.
Nan Yu Qi screams in anger she smashes a small vase in the room the sound of glass shattering resound it has become a norm recently after her illness becomes worst. The maid stopped being shocked after two days, the maids sigh then continue their jobs as if they heard nothing.
Suddenly they hear Nan yu Qi holler to one of them, they exchanged a helpless glance then one of Nan yu Qi close maid enters the room, the room was pitch black since Nan Yu Qi cover all the window with thick curtain, the glass shattered on the floor so she must walk in tiptoe to avoid the shards glass.
The maid recognizes Nan Yu Qi's shadow behind the screen divider "What do you need young miss" she carefully asked since Nan Yu Qi becomes temperamental lately.
"Find Mo Ning Yuan, told her to come immediately, don't make me wait for any second!" she shouted.
"Ye…yes, young miss" the maid scurry away from the room.
A few days ago Mo Ning Yuan offers her help to get rid the poison but at that time she was almost healed so she thought she doesn't need Mo Ning Yuan help, Nan Yu Qi knows Mo Ning Yuan have hidden agenda to help her so she doesn't want to involved with Mo Ning Yuan who obviously hides her malice behind her innocent face. Unfortunately, her condition worsened even the nan family physician didn't know how to heal her he can only ease the burn and itch on her face but to returned Nan Yu Qi skin condition to normal, they admit it would take a very long time and there's no guarantee it would back to normal.
The Family head Nan Yu Feng who also Nan Yu Qi father was disheartened not only because he's great daughter become useless he also terrified to lose the engagement with Xie family, he already dream to become the father-in-law of the next sacred Mountain peak leader, and now his dream is crash and burn how could he accept it.
Nan Yu Qi knew she would lose her value and position if she disfigured, worst to come she only a concubine daughter without her engagement she would have no position in her family much less to the society so she needs Mo Ning yuan help, and she will not hesitate to give Mo Ning yuan everything if she can heal her.
Mo Ning Yuan was in front of the dressing table, she combs her luscious dark hair when her subordinates enter the room.
"Nan Yu Qi maid just sends a message to invite to come to nan manor, it seems the rumor about Nan yu qi condition deteriorated is true" the male subordinated smirk in content.
Mo Ning Yuan's face remains calmed as she saw her subordinated from the mirror reflection "Well. Someone is helping us" she chuckles softly.
The young subordinated approach Mo Ning Yuan, he took the comb from her hand then he helps her comb her hair "Who knows, someone like Nan Yu Qi would incite a lot of enemies, someone like her will not raise to her position just base on her talent alone"
"You right, what about Chen Hu Yin, did his heart ached for what happened with his beloved woman" her words are gentle and sweet is a contrast with her cold expression.
He finishes combing her hair then he put the comb on the table as he said "I don't think he cares, he busy helping Xie Xian Zie to approach other families to support Xie Xian Zi, he had no time for Nan Yu Qi"
Mo Ning Yuan sneer "So much for love isn't it…"
"What would you do with Nan Yu Qi?" he leans forward as he whispers intimately.
He giggles then said "I'll help her, it a good chance to get the key from Nan family" she c.a.r.e.s.s her young subordinated face "it's time to send the news to Miss Lao…"
The young subordinated mouth pursed as he complains like a kid "I don't like that woman"
"Me too, but wee need her strength…..at least for now" Mo Ning Yuan sigh "Now tell that Nan yu Qi maid we will come after dawn, make sure no one in her family knows about this"
"Yes, mistress" he gives a deep kiss on Mo Ning Yuan's neck, the girl giggles softly as she pushes his face away from her lightly. When her subordinated left, she approaches the desk and writes something she blows the paper to let the ink dry then she scrolls the paper and puts inside the small bamboo tube.
She opens the window then she whistles suddenly a goshawk perch on the window then she attaches the bamboo on the bird's feet then she shoves the bird away, Mo Ning Yuan watch the bird fly to the sky for a second before she closes the window.
Unbeknown from Mo Ning Yuan a shadow figure watch everything from the tallest trees, he make a long whistle and eagle flew down toward him, he make a sign and the bird flew to the sky in high speed seemingly chassed the goshawk then the dark figure take a long leap and his figure disappeared.

After he finishes his breakfast with lory he let the beautiful princess resume her rest. He was in the living room where Bei Li Yan, Wu San Bo, and Jin Hao finally arrived. The three king palace was leisurely drinking their wine without care on their face, they don't look warry even though they are in the enemy territory.
"Everything has gone according to your plan milord," said Wu san Bo, "Jin Wei said he ready anytime you gave him a sign and so is my people" he solemnly said.
"I also bring my best flower to deal with sacred mountain peak people, they must be feel blessed" Bei Li Yan smiles wickedly. The flower he brings is his best assassin from the Red Vermillion palace, the same four woman who he brought to crash the royal banquet at the Jiang Wei royal palace.
They are strong, cruel, merciless, and loyal to Zhao Li Xin and Bei Li Yan, if Zhao Li Xin told them to jump to the cliff they will not hesitate and jump with all their might, that how loyal they are to Zhao Li Xin.
"So you bring all that crazy woman with you" Jin Hao quipped.
"Hey, it just right to bring the crazy to the circus!" Bei Li Yan saluted with his winecup.
Jin Hao tilts his head as he agrees with Bei Li Yan "True…. this place is like a circus, a.d.u.l.tery, i.n.c.e.s.t, murderer, no one seems normal in this place" he scoffed in disdain.
"Not to mention a powerful beast who reside under the mountain, what Princess said…' the first kind' isn't it?" excitement apparent on Bei Li Yan face.
"Hum.." Zhao Li Xin hummed indifferently.
Unlike Bei Li Yan, Wu San bo was more anxious knowing the existence of such creature "What should we do about it Milord, is unwise to release such a creature?"
"Boooo, you joy killer!" Bei Li Yan voice his annoyance, he wants to see the first kind what is it look like, the Princess bird looks normal but Ming Yue Yin said that because he hides his real appearance, Ming Yue Yin also added that Girsha appearance is nothing you could ever imagine, is beautiful and scary at the same time but absolutely enigmatic. Bei Li Yan's curiosity burst to whole another level, he wants to see it even if his life is on a stake!
Wu San Bo gives Bei Li Yan side-eyes, not like his stupid brother Wu san Bo still wants to alive to enjoy his luxurious life. Jin Hao, on the other hand, doesn't care, he has a simple plan 'fight it if you can, runs if you can't' easy right.
"What Lory said then…" Jin Hao asks.
"If the beast poses a threat to humankind she will strengthen the seal to locked the beast for eternity but if it's not….she will talk to the beast," Zhao Li Xin said casually, but deep down he was not sure with Lory plan, the idea to talk with legendary beast sound absurd.
When they having breakfast lory told him that not all first kind is hostile, as long they don't invoke his territory or challenge his power some First kind can talk with reason, and afterall with Girsha with her the beast will not take her lightly. She hopes there would be honor among the same kin.
Lory plan sound unreliable but then girsha said that just how Lory used to make a plan, her plan is obscure and reckless with a hint of craziness so 'Voila'
