Chapter 104 - Missing

On the other side Zhao Li Xin still burned in fire, figuratively and literally every beast near him was burned to crisp before they can get closed to him, he has lost his temper and vent in to anything available, not even his subordinated dare to walk close to him, their master right now is like ticking bomb who knows when he would explode and its all because the Huang sibling, they wish they can resurrect them and kill them again.

Jin Hao fanning himself with special fan imbued with snow crystal, it's helped him relieved some stemmed. Bei Li Yan watches his selfish brother who only cares about his well being can he see how much he sweat right now.

Zhao Li Xin ignores everyone his mind has run wild he keeps question where she is? Is she alive? Is she got hurt? She can't be dead, isn't she? His heart is distraught he can barely think even though he got the map but it took so much time to get where she is not to mention if she still in the same place or moving on somewhere.

She only lost for a few days but it feels like forever for him, he did not rest since she was gone he can't rest he can't stop moving or he would be crazy from distressed. They have been following the winding road and intricate maze until they reach the place where he and Lory separated.

"Milord I think this is the tunnel way out," Mong Yi said.

Zhao Li Xin doesn't see anyone other than cold stones wall his begin to race, he entered the tunnel slowly his pace suddenly become heavy, he feels bad premonition his fist clenched and her expression become more tensed something very wrong in here suddenly his pace halted in front of him the floor had crumbled down, when he looks down an iron spikes emerged from below he sees many corpses pierce by the spikes and his heart drop.

What if one the corpses are his Luo Ri Yi, his hand trembles everything become dark his legs become soft for the first he feel like so weak he almost falls on his knee but he grit his teeth he can't give up now, she might not still alive, SHE HAS TO!

"Milord, I think Miss Luo went this way!!" Mong Ki shouted, he never shouts at Zhao Li Xin but he saw the chaotic Qi he knew he must do something before too late.

Zhao Li Xin didn't care who is shouting all he heard that his little savior is alive, he runs to Mong Ki with haste. Jin Hao crouched in front of the boulder with a rope tied on it with a strange knot.

"I think she went down there" said Jin Hao after he makes sure this is the rope Zhao Li Xin give it to Luo Ri Yi, Zhao Li Xin never give anything ordinary for Luo Ri Yi even a simple rope is the best rope made from special material that's not common for ordinary people to find.

Zhao Li Xin sees the boulder tide with a weird knot, he easily recognizes it was his savior he had seen this weir knot at Lao Manor when he first time met Luo Ri Yi at that time she tied the knot to the broken hoe to climb Lao Manor wall.

Zhao Li Xin sigh in relief at least she still has a chance to be alive, his chaotic heart slowly calmed again his mind becomes clearer, he realizes he needs to find her fast before something more dreadful happened to her.

Without wasting more times Zhao Li Xin jumps down and the others follow their Lord hastily, it's not too far for Zhao Li Xin and the other to reach the down but they knew for normal people especially women she must drain his stamina, deep down they admire her resilience and strong will.

When they reach down they see the small bridged, they feel their heart shrink they scared if Luo Ri Yi crossed the small bridge if she does is she alright? they look at each other their eyes fear the same things. Zhao Li Xin also fears the same thing but he did not dare to think about it, he leaps once on the bridge and reaches the end then he looks around trying to find any sign about her survival.

Without being told everyone immediately spread out looking for a clue, a few seconds later Jin Hao shouted

"Someone was here!"

Zhao Li Xin and the others half running toward him, they all see the boot marks on the ground it's a small boot mark it's new and from the size of it's they sure it's a woman and this must be Luo Ri Yi, because no woman they knew who enter the tomb with boots except her.

They see the footprints lead them to enter the cave, inside the cave the ground is slippery and everything pitch black but fortunately for a high cultivator like them is not a problem, then they smell something awful and they all have a bad premonition.

Something fall from the ceiling with heavy sounds turns out it's a cocoon they all frowned in disgusted Mong Yi quickly stab whatever inside the cocoon, a gooey liquid flown down from inside the cocoon and they realize they are inside the cave worm nest.

Cave worm is a spiritual beast level for them the beast is not strong but for Luo Ri Yi….how could she survive this. They can feel their back drenched with cold sweat, they immediately scattered they pray for a miracle the 'Great Lady' is alive or there's a fat chance they all kill by their Lord frenzy.

"Milord, there's another boots marks and I think someone fighting here!" Mong Yi report to his Lord quickly, he doesn't care with manner anymore, he shouted loudly at his Lord carelessly.

Normally Zhao Li Xin would mind this type of behavior but in this situation, he doesn't care or even realize it the truth is no one realize it, who cares anyway as long they can find their 'Fire Extinguisher'

Mong Ki also examined the footprints on the ground, from the distance between the marks it shows the young madam running away, and another mark on the ground shown something big chasing her it's doesn't need the genius to guess what it is, then they see a burn mark on the ground and they become hopeful again, perhaps she's managed to stay alive.

They follow the footprints who lead them to the end of the cliff and they heart fall on the ground again, Bei Li Yan almost cursed out loud, this up and down feeling is killing him he never felt distressed like this before and he has been through a lot.

Zhao Li Xin forces himself to remain calm, he reassured himself his little savior is still alive somewhere she got to be because he didn't know what would he do if he lost her, with his keen eyes he see another entrance across this cliff and when he looks up the hanging root tree looks like it had torn apart.

Ignoring everyone he leaped towards the root tree he only needs to grab the hanging root tree to swing him across the cliff, the others follow him without question, no one dare say anything Zhao Li Xin look down they can't see what kinda expression he had but they're guessed for the worst.

Suddenly Zhao Li Xin chuckles "She's alive…." He murmured.

"Milord?" Mong ki afraid his Lord has lost his mind, he nervously approaches him, he carefully scrutinizes his Lord expression his Lord didn't look sad or crazy but instead, he looks relief, Mong Ki follows his Lord gaze then on the ground he sees half-eaten grapes fruit and a small meat bun leftover meat.

Mong Ki overjoyed by what he saw he assured miss Luo Ri Yi was here a few hours ago and not just her who survive even her pets also alive and well.

"What's wrong?" Mong Yi nervously asked.

"Miss Luo still alive, looks!" Mong Ki points his finger on the ground, everyone follows his direction and elated from what they see.

"She really is alive!!" Jin Hao shocked with disbelieved maybe if Luo Ri Yi is a cultivator he won't shock as much, wrong! If this happened to that stupid Liang Zu Princess Ming Ru Yi she won't manage to go this far, in this unexpected situation the thing that makes people survive not a strong cultivator but a clear mind person who can make quick and smart decision without given up under great pressures.

But people who can do this are someone who has strong-willed combined with a lot of experience especially when they don't have an upper hand like Luo Ri Yi, he can't imagine what kinda mental strength she had to able become so resilient.

Jin Hao believed this is not something you were born with but it was something you were honed all your lives, the question is, what kinda lives she had been through until she becomes like that?

"I think she rests here" Bei Li Yan adds in "The footprint show she stays here under the big stones"

"She's eating and she makes time for rest….she's patience, calmed and careful, our future madam is not ordinary after all" Jin Hao smiles with a satisfied look.

Bei Li Yan also agree with Jin Hao, Luo Ri Yi looks easy-going and frail from the outside but inside she's decisive person, she also quick-witted and very smart even though she's a wasted without cultivation she's not weak and she never acted pitifully, she might come from lowly background but she had no greed with wealth or power, she is the best candidate for their Future Madam and after all she's the only one who can move that 'Demon Lord'
