Chapter 621 - Never Make A Deal with the Demon

The sounds of heavy breath overlapped with m.o.a.ns floating in the air, the smelled with strong incense and illuminated with dimmed red candlelight, one woman entangled with two men's on the giant bed cover with sweat as the bed making racket sounds nonstop, one would fear the bed would break from the heavy movement on the top of it.

But they do not care as they engaging in the steamy atmosphere, they scream and cry like an animal in heat, touching each other in an o.b.s.c.e.n.e way oblivious with the presence of a strange man who watches them from the coach, the man hides behind the shade, he drinks his wine comfortably while watching the salacity scene with an amused expression that hides behind the dimmed light.

The door suddenly opens, and woman with soft sky blue hanfu enters the room, her face filled with disgust as she watched the abhorrent scenes, she takes a deep breath then quickly avert her gaze from the people who are too consumed by their owned l.u.s.t. The man on the couch ignores the disgust on the women's face then he casually beckoned the woman.

"Aah…My sweet Lao Min Na, please come in…" he sweetly called her.

Lao Min Na swallows her nausea as she walks towards the man at a slow pace she obvious;y reluctant to enter the room but suddenly she heard the sound of the woman scream in p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e and Lao Min Na flinched, if she could she would be vomit right here, right now but she knows it only amused the man in front of her so she let out a long exhales and pretend she didn't hear anything.

Lao Min Na takes a seat on the single chair beside the couch, she bites her lips trying to ignore the revolting noise from the bed that not too far from them.

"Why are you make a face like that, this is what normal humans do, isn't it?" he asked nonchalantly it sound almost innocent, however, the man's face hidden behind the shadow only the line of his white teeth.

"Why you call me here?" Lao Min Na ignores his question, she just wanted to get over and left this room immediately. 

"Tsk, why are you so hurry" the man clicks his tongue, he points his finger to the people who are doing atrocious position without a sense of dignity, the man sneer "Do you know, that the two men are brothers and the woman is their aunt?" the man chortled as if it was a hilarious fact.

The color drained from Lao Min Na's face, she bulged her eyes in shock then immediately covers her mouth to stop herself from vomiting on the floor. The man chuckles lightly when he saw her reaction as if he conveys a joke.

"Do you know what I did?" he snickers like a mischievous little kid who eager to tell about his mischief, he raised his hand to the side of his mouth and whisper "I told them I spike their drink with an aphrodisiac so they had no choice but to release they're urged with each other, they are furious but they had no choice….or so they thought" he chuckles in an eerie sound that sent a shiver to a person.

Lao Min Na unconsciously grips the arms chair as she waiting what other awful things he would tell her again, the man moves his head from the shades, the man yellow elliptical eyes glow under the dimmed light as the dark scales appear unnaturally on his skin, the corner of his mouth lifted "But, I was lie….I only spoke a little bit on the women's wine but is not even a strong aphrodisiac, while the brothers only feel slightly intoxicating from the alcohol on the wine, and look what happened…." 

The men and woman conjoined their body in the most abhorrent way even without looking at them Lao Min Na could guess what they are doing, the sound of something wet slamming at each other make her feel sick to her stomach, she wants nothing more but to leave this room but her body refused to listen to her.

Lao Min Na's hands tremble profusely her eyes filled with anger, hatred, and disgust then she looks at the man who already leans his back on the couch as he avoiding the dimmed light leaving only his little silhouette.

"What is your point Lazarus" Lao Min Na's nose flare, she tried to compose herself.

Lazarus tilted his head slightly "Do you know what Demon do? I never asked a human to do bad deeds neither I force them to do something they don't want to do, the only I do is give them a reason, a reason to vent their d.e.s.i.r.e, a reason for them to kill, and a reason for them to sacrifices other, I let them blame me for all the bad thing they had done" Lazarus open his arms like he play a role as a saint and Lao Min Na could see his complacent smiles behind the darkness.

"Human do all the savaged thing they have done and w.h.i.n.ed that because I don't give them a choice but the truth is there always a choice, like that two brothers, if they really don't want it they should realize my little trick, or they could hurt themselves to stop themselves from doing this ludicrous acted, they can even choose to break from this room despited what would other people think if they knew what has happened, however, they choose to stay….." Lazarus shrugs noncahalantly.

"The beautiful aunty could kill herself to preserved her dignity but she's not, the brothers could run or killed themselves but they don't…..they blamed me and the aphrodisiac for their atrocious acted – just like you…."

Lao Min Na trembles hands flinched, Lazarus crosses his arms and he props his chin with his other hand then he chortled "I wonder…do you still remember the sounds of your helpless baby cried, so you remember the sounds of his little body when you drop him on the water, by the way, did you give the boy names?"

"SHUT UP!" Lao Min Na shouted exasperatedly.

The three people on the bed suddenly stop is like they were hit by cold water, they finally regain their sense. They look at each other with bulging eyes and quickly jump from the bed and gather their messy clothes on the floor. Lazarus waved his hand then black smoke came from his hands and engulf the three fl.u.s.tered people then the next second they all fall like a fallen leaf on the floor.

Lao Min Na looks down in forlorn, she cries but there no tears came from her eyes. They said tears are the sign of human remorse, some said is the human pure atonement and God would send his mercy to that person, but Lao Min Na can't have tears, not since she delivered her own Son to the Demon fangs with her own hands, one could only guess that she had fallen from the grace of God.

"Do you blame me too, little one?" Lazarus slide close to Lao Min Na, then gently raised her chin "It's okay – I don't mind, if blaming me could make you sleep easier at night then why not" Lazarus smiles warmly, Lao Min Na see his eyes that filled with gentleness and kindness is a total lie but why she drawn so much on those eyes.

His voice sweet and melancholy, slightly bitter if Lao Min Na didn't know who he truly is she would believe he has adored her, Lazarus held her chin and rubbed her cheek softly "I will take your sinned from you, you have nothing to worry about when you die you don't have to worry for heaven or hell because you soul belongs to me…"

The stillness of the air seemed to suck every noise leaving everything in nothingness, the stars hide behind the cloudy sky as the sky starts to rumble and the rain pouring. The air turn to chill and everyone lit up their furnace to prevent the coldness. Lory feel the night is darker than it used to be but she blames the heavy rain for that.

Girsha already sleeps in his magnificent birdhouse that just to luxurious and too big for a single bird but then Girsha answer smugly saying because he worth it, Lory respond him with rolling eyes however she does feel her friends is worth it, he even worth even more because he is the only thing that connects her with her old world, without him she would feel disconnected with her past.

Lory couldn't sleep, she brews herself tea then decide to read a book on the couch until she gets sleepy. The book is about social norms for woman, is about how they conduct and behaved themselves in the society, she knows the book from Yang Xi Ying and asked the housekeeper to bought one for her since Zhao Li Xin library didn't have such a book, woman and mannerism is the least of Zhao Li Xin concerned.

"What do you read?"

Lory startled, she lifts her head and surprised "Why are you here, I thought you stay at the inn?" Lory closes the book and rests it on her l.a.p.

"I told you I would return at night when nothing happened" Zhao Li Xin scooted beside her then put his arms around her shoulder "You haven't told me what did you read?"

Lory feel a bit shy, but she didn't stop him from flip the book to see the title "The art of woman Grace" he murmured then scoffed "What a piece of junk, why you read something like this?" he took the book and throw it on the table in front of them "You don't need to read this piece of garbage!"

"Heyy, I want to read that" Lory complained.

"You don't need to learn anything, you are PERFECT!" he holds her waist to stop Lory from taking back the book. Lory yelp and laughs when he starts tickles her, Lory jolts and falls on his c.h.e.s.t while Zhao Li Xin keeps tickles her mercilessly.

"Okay – okay, I will not read the book again, stop it~!" she begs between her laughter,

"Good..." only then he stops tickles her, then wrapped her inside his embrace then raised his chin on top of her head "Why you suddenly interested in this trash?" he obviously has no appreciation with the book.

"Well, I realize after I marry you people would have some kinda expectation from me….I thought I have to learn a little and not to embarrass you…" her cheek slightly red, she is quite embarrassed when she explained herself.

"Their expectation should be I'm not terrorize them anymore since I'm busy with my little wife and what were you thinking you will embarrass me?" Zhao Li Xin genuinely thing Lory have a wild imagination, Zhao Li Xin shifts her chin with his long finger and gently kissed her lips, her lips are always so smooth and soft he savors his time to nimble her sweet lips for a minute before he reluctantly stops "You will never embarrass me" he looked at her lovingly.

Her lips slightly swollen because of the long kiss then she make cheeky smiles "Really, what if I get drunk and dance provocatively on the table, will you mad?"

"Like in the public area?" Zhao Li Xin probe.

"Yes," Lory wiggle her eyebrow in jest.

Zhao Li Xin smiles devilishly "Then a lot of people would lose their sight that day" 

Lory pout her lips in doubt "Do you really gonna do that?"

Zhao Li Xin chuckles and poked her nose lightly "It's adorable how you doubt my ferocity all the time" maybe only Lory who never realizes how crazy Zhao Li Xin could be when it involves her, the truth is Zhao Li Xin cannot be said sane in the first place, he only has better control after he met Lory nonetheless he still as deathly as he was.

"Fine, I'm kidding anyway" Lory push him slightly then raised from the couch, suddenly Zhao Li Xin called her.

"Uhm Lory…"

"Hum?"

"How provocative the dance is?"

"…."
