Chapter 564 - Finally Arrived

A black figure suddenly appears from a thin air, he sits on the lotus position right above the bed, the man eyes remain close as he slowly stabilizes his breathing, his long dark hair dr.a.p.ed on his shoulder and the black robes he wears make his well-carved appearance become more distinctive, his eyelids slowly open and the dark onyx marble eyes stare coldly to the wall.

He suddenly heard a commotion outside his cabin then faintly he heard the sound of giggles that too familiar for him, the corner of his mouth slightly lifted and the coldness in his eyes reduced tremendously.

He raised from the bed without hurry, he fixed his robes for a second before he walks to the door, when he open the door the sound of cheering and cursing suddenly hit him, he only frowned for a second then he goes out of the room, he follows the sweet melodious voice that was become his sole obsession.

Lory could feel Zhao Li Xin's presence the mommet he come, he face beamed then she quickly got up from the chair and pounce him excitedly "What took you so long!" she complains but her eyes filled with longing that make his heart race.

he does spend inside the mystique realm longer than he used to, she surely missed him like he does, his eyes stare tenderly to the pair purple eyes that stare at him with longing, "Sorry, the stage level is more difficult than I thought" Zhao Li Xin said with sorry look as he wrapped his arms around her small waist.

Such an intimated scene which is rare to witness in this conservative world but in here everyone already got numbs especially Hei Shen sect member they only glance a second before turn away as if they saw nothing.

Zhao Li Xin finally realizes what the commotion about "Should I asked this?" he squints his eyes.

Lory chuckles lightly "They just exercise their combat moves but we bet on them just to make it fun, I bet on Yue Yin though" 

"Oh…" he replies vaguely seemingly uninterested.

Suddenly they hear the loud cheers, Lory turn her head in reflex "Whose win?" she yells at Bei Li Yan.

Bei Li Yan laughs "No one, today is a draw!" 

Lory stunned then she opens her arms "So the house win?" Lory perplexed.

Because they making a bet under the hei Shen territory is normal that hei shen become the 'house'

She elbow Zhao Li Xin c.h.e.s.t lightly "I can't believe it, you win" Lory mouth twitch, Zhao Li Xin just got here and he doesn't know anything still he managed to win, talk about great luck no one has better than Zhao Li Xin.

Lory stride towards Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Ying in a calm pace, she rubs his hands together then she opens her hand and purple flicker orbs burst from her hands and fly towards Yang Xi Ying and Ming Yue Yin than instantly the bruised on their skin disappear instantly and so the pained.

"Take it as my treat today" Lory grinned.

The two girls examined their skin who become flawless not even a slight pain left for them, it feel so magical they stare at Lory with agape, everyone also dumbfounded but Lory clapped her hands "Let's have dinner!"

Without they realize the time goes by quickly as the sunset dyed the sky with orange and red colors, Hei Shen members and Ming Yue Yin subordinated already prepare two small tables to serves their master why two small tables? Because larger table would not fit on the deck. The group immediately divided between the couple and single no one realizes this until they have a seat and then look at each other with tacit understanding 'No more dog food for today' 

Ming Yue Yin also at the single table, stay with that couple make her remember Yuan Shao more that she used too and that's annoyed her. 

"What are you looking at brother?" 

Mong Yi voice snapped him back, Mong Ki gives his brother a quick glance "Nothing…I just watch our Lord"

"What's wrong with him?" Mong Yi darted his gaze to Zhao Li Xin and see nothing strange "Milord looks fine…" he mutters.

"He is…but do you remember, two years ago we would never dream that he would share his meal with other people, listening to their jokes with loud voice without frowning, he used to hate loud voice and noisy people, he always detached with the world around him but look at him now….he looks like he enjoyed his life" Mong Ki gaze turn warmed as he watched Zhao Li Xin who change so much from two years ago.

Mong Yi sighs heavily "Yes, you right…I don't realize it doesn't look weird anymore when I saw Milord smiles or laugh, he make a lot of expressions and do a lot of silly things since Miss Lory came, just like a normal human would" his voice is mix with joy and relief, as if a giant burden left his shoulder.

Ming Yue Yin and Yang X Ying practice motivate everyone to improve their combat skill, suddenly everyone starts to practice with each other and exchanged tips and trick, especially Bei Li Yan and Jin Hao, who knows they have so many trick on their sleeves the different is Jin Hao trick is more subtle but vicious while Bei Li Yan is more blunt but deathly overall is a good trick, Lory also learned a few things about cultivator move by watching them practice.

Then two weeks later they arrived at harbor city Jiang Dong, the arrival of the black ship stirred everyone curiosity but what the people curious the most is the identity of the people who got off from the board, every single one of them not only handsome and beautiful but they also have domineering aura just from a glance everyone knew that these people are not ordinary.

"Oh, we finally arrive!" Ming Yue Yin exclaimed excitedly.

"Thank goodness, I have enough with seafood, I want meat bun…like a meat bun!" Lory said abruptly.

"We don't have time, if we delayed one more day we would be late for the auction" Yang Xi Ying remain them.

"Yeah, that's true…" Lory sighs helplessly, she really craving beef or pork, whatever animal who doesn't have fin.

"Madam I will buy it for you, but I might get the meat bun from the random stall so I can't guarantee the taste" Mong Yi suddenly appear in front of Lory.

"That's fine, I'm good with everything!" Lory raised her thumb happily.

"Okay, madam!" Mong Yi bows his head slightly then run in a jiffy.

"Ah, Su Jin follow Mong Yi, buy me meat bun too!" Ming Yue Yin holler to her subordinate.

"Can you buy me vegetable buns too?" Yang Xi Ying asked Su jin politely, even though Su Jin is Ming Yue Yin servant but her true identity is the Empress personal guard, she Ming Yue Yin deathly sword no one at Liangzu Kindom treat them lightly.

"Yes, your majesty! Please wait miss Yang!" Su Jin bows her head as she replies with cheerful smiles then she quickly left.

Soon after a handsome young man about twenty years old, he wears soft blue robes with bamboo embroidery and he knotted his hair neatly with a piece of gold hairpin approaching them, he looks like a gentleman with a mild temperament. He walks towards them with two men following him.

The man's face brighten up when he saw Zhao Li Xin, he immediately cupped his fist and bow his head courteously "All hail Lord Long Ming" he said solemnly.

"You are?" Zhao Li Xin asks shortly.

"My name is Wu Zhi Xiao, I'm under the red vermillion palace, is great to finally meet you milord" he humbly said.

"He is my subordinated, his father is the Marquess from the Yunmo Kingdom" Bei Li Yan grinned widely as he casually introduces Wu Zhi Xiao.

Yang Xi Ying and the other shocked, their eyes grew so wide it almost fell from its socket, they stare at Wu Zhi Xiao with a disbelieved expression 'The Marquess son is Hei Shen subordinate? How this happen?'

Not only then who are shocked even Wu Zhi Xiao servants also stunned, it seems they never saw their master acted like this before, they stare at Zhao Li Xin for a second before they look down because of their master glare at them with a warning.

"I already prepare the carriage, please follow me" Wu Zhi Xiao expression remains calm.

Because they arrived later than on schedule they have no time to dilly-dally, Wu Zhia Xiao has prepared four carriages because he heard there would be honorable empress Liang Zu and Jiu Yun Sect master, he thought they would like to ride alone, every monarch is proudful and overbearing none of them like to share their space no matter how close their relationship is, well Wu Zhi Xiao is wrong this time.

Lory knows Zhao Li Xin would have a discussion with Wu Zhi Xiao and the others so she chooses to ride a different carriage, Ming Yue Yin takes this change to stick on Lory. Yang Xi Ying also want to ride the same carriage with Lory but Lory reminds her not to neglect her poor husband any longer, Li Mo Zhen face lit up like a light bulb he appreciated Lory sensitivity, he does feel neglect by his wife on this journey and so Li Mo Zhen and yang Xi Ying ride a different carriage.

They're also a certain Lord who feel neglect by his wife, he wants to stick with her but his beautiful waves shooed him. Lory is not in the mood to watch her husband work, she rather spends with Ming Yue Yin at least she can tease this brat until she pouted.
