Chapter 171 - Great Performance

Zhao Li Xin and Jin Hao startled, they look each other with dismay Jin Hao know Zhao Li Xin order everyone to watch Lao Min Na movement if not because he knows his Lord head over heels with Luo Ri Yi he might thought his Lord interested with Lao Min Na, he never have high opinion about Lao Min Na, is not like he never seen talented woman before, someone like her is rare but she's not the only one compare to Luo Ri Yi...he more interested to Luo Ri Yi.

"I think she knew about the cursed but how did she know it, I don't know? but I'm sure she deliberately put Li Mo Zhen under the cursed and the hairpin is also with her" Lory also puzzled by this situation.

"Mong Ki!" Zhao Li Xin called and he enters the room.

"Yes Milord" he cupped his fist.

"Called Li Mo Zhen!" he commands him.

"Right away Milord!" Mong Ki left in haste.

Lory stretches her arms upwards sleeping too much her limbs sores "I underestimated her cruelty" Lory grumble while massaging her shoulder.

Zhao Li Xin feel bad for her so he helps her to massage bot her shoulder which she gladly accepted "Lao Min Na?" he asked "Did I told you what she did to the young Prince of Liu Yan Kingdom?" he reminds her.

"I know, even though he hurt that prince eventually he helps him too right, at least she didn't mean to kill him so I never thought she would….wait a minute" Lory tapped Zhao Li Xin hand "Do you think she tries the same trick to Li Mo Zhen as she did to the young Prince?" she gasped.

"Is not hard to guess isn't it?" he said in relaxed manner, this time he takes out a hairbrush from his ring and begin to brush her hair, Lory was too immersed in her though she didn't realize how odd Zhao Li Xin behavior right now only Jin hao who watching it with frowned, why he feels his Lord acted like he's playing with a doll, it's quite creepy…

"Is she wanted to be Jiu Yun Sect savior so she can't take advantages of them as she does to White Moon tower Sect?" the more she thought about it the more make sense Lo Min Na schemed is, Zhao Li Xin right she didn't feel enough just become an Empress for the Jiang Wei Kingdom, she wants more…so much more.

"Is she do this so she can against you?" Lory turns to Zhao Li Xin but the man remains indifferent he move lory face back to the front again while braiding half her hair, Jin Hao mouth twitch watching his Lord new talent.

"She does gather a lot of power to oppose me…" he said calmly he put a tiny hair clip on the first braid, then he makes another braid, while talk indifferently "She does work very hard…"

"But you cannot underestimate her, she witty, smart, cruel and capable, she might not match you for now but we don't know what happened in the future" Lory reminds him firmly.

"Is my princess doubting my ability?" Zhao Li Xin look hurt while putting big flower hairpiece with a string of pearl to adorn her braids.

"Of course not, I always believe your capability and how the hell you do my hair so fast?!" Lory uses a hand mirror to see her hairstyles and she was amazed and shocked also slightly worried.

"But you still need to be careful…" Lory said sternly while putting down the hand mirror on the table while ignoring his boyfriend's weird talent.

Zhao Li Xin looking at her gently while admire his owned handy craft "Well maybe its time to messed up some of that woman plan" he smiled weirdly, unbeknown by Lory when Zhao Li Xin say messed up he didn't think about Lao Min Na but he thinks about something PG-18 to his beloved Princess, without her notice her boyfriend developed weird fetish about her.

"Uhm, okay….but do it fast!" she encouraged him.

Zhao Li Xin smiles deepen "No, I like it slow…"

"Why?" Lory disagree.

"Huh?"

"...…"

Jin Hao ignores both of them he sits on the corner table, drinking wine while crossing his leg leisurely he read a book he developed immunity for whatever his Lord weird behavior developed since he met Luo Ri Yi, just like people said 'out of sight, out of mind' that exactly what he does now.

A few minutes later Li Mo Zhen enter with Yang Xi Ying who was holding his arms carefully she still very much worried about him although her worried is unnecessary because all the high medicine given by Jin Hao nonetheless being taking care of by beauty is not a bad thing.

"Greeting Lord Long Ming, Miss Luo" said Li Mo Zhen politely, Yang Xi Ying also bow courteously.

"Master Li and Miss Yang, please have a sit" Lory invited them with kind smiles.

Lory didn't waste more time she immediately straight to the point "Master Yang, you said earlier to me that you know about the existence of this white sword from a rumor, can you explain exactly how did you know about it?"

Li Mo Zhen rubs his chin his eyebrows furrow try to remember what happened a few months ago "At that time I was visiting Fu Hua tea house then I hear two men talk about the missing holly sword owned by the immortal swordmaster"

"Lory, Zhao Li Xin and Jin Hao look each other secretly when they hear about Fu Hua, Li Mo Zhen then continue "Because I'm interested about it I asked them if they mind sharing the information with me because they say they didn't mind we talk for hour about the sword" Li Mo Zhen face turn grim, only now he realizes there something wrong about it.

In the cultivator world where everyone is naturally suspicious and greedy how could they trade information easily "Miss Luo do you think someone deliberately wants to hurt me?" Li Mo Zhen asked with a quiet voice.

"But why? Is someone want to take down Jiu Yun Sect?" Yang Xi Ying nose flares with anger.

"Yes and no…" said Zhao Li Xin calmly "The perpetrator didn't want to destroy Jiu Yun Sect but she want to subdue it"

Li Mo Zhen faces turn dark "How?" his word becomes sharp.

"Inflict you a weird illness that no one can't cure and come as your savior," Zhao Li Xin said casually as if it was natural.

On contrary Li Mo Zhen face become stern because the plan will be worked, everyone will be in a great debt if the perpetrator could save his life, he knows how desperate he is more than once he thought to kill himself to end the pained, this perpetrator is so cruel and vicious but he must admit, it is a very good plan.

"Who did this to me?" his voice filled with animosity.

"Lao Min Na" Lory said shortly.

"Who is she?" Yang Xi Ying never heard that name before.

"The third Prince Jiang Wei Kingdom fiancée also the goddaughter of the leader White Moon Tower pavilion and the leader of the Immortal tower," said Jin Hao with mocking toned, for him her accomplishment is not something to be brag about.

"The hairpin we need to calmed the sword is also with her" Lory also added.

Li Mo Zhen wants to cursed if only Zhao Li Xin is not here, his fist clenched so hard until it turns white Yang Xi Ying face also turn red these past month is hellish for her, Li Mo Zhen and the elders she thought it's only an unfortunate accident but turns out someone deliberately put them in this situation how could she not be furious.

"We talk about revenged later, for now, we need figure it out how to get the hairpin because time is running out…" said Lory reminds them.

"But it gonna take some time to find Lao Min Na now" Yang Xi Ying bites her lower lips in worry.

"Fret not!" suddenly Bei Li Yan enter with bright and charming smiles "Apologies to surprised you" but his face show he didn't feel sorry at all.

"This master is…"Li Mo Zhen realizes this rude man is one of Zhao Li Xin subordinated because no sane man dares to provoke Zhao Li Xin.

"This humble one name is Bei Li Yan, I'm Milord lowly subordinated and also the king of Red vermillion palace," he said without being humble and flaunting his red lavish robes that only royalty could wear it.

"Explained…." Zhao Li Xin ignores his subordinated antics behavior.

"The news spread Lao Min Na and her entourage come to cured Master Li," said Bei Li Yan grinned widely showing his white perfect teeth.

"Is she already here…" Lory exhilarated.

"Approximately in the next hour she would be here," said Bei Li Yan unhurried.

"She really comes to make a fool of us" Li Mo Zhen furious.

"But this is good" Lory smiled mischievously "She must come with the hairpin"

"We can also figure it out what her real porpoise to obtain Jiu Yun Sect" Zhao Li Xin pour some wine for himself.

"Let's smoke the hole and see what coming" Lory giggles excitedly.

Li Mo Zhen's anger dissipated when the hear Zhao li xin and lory conversation, they right there's no used to be angry right now it's a good thing for him to found this earlier.

"I will talk with the elders and tell them what happened, you can inform us if you have an idea," said Li Mo Zhen who already back to his previous calm state.

Lory then tilt her head while look at Li Mo Zhen seriously "Master Li, can you act?"

"...."
