The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 1016 Entering The Last Round III



The man stopped right in front of Li Mo Zhen while panting heavily he said to Li Mo Zhen "Master, Yu Jin city is under attack!" The man's voice was strained with panic.

​ Everyone was dumbfounded they gave each other confused and shocked looks, Li Mo Zhen's face was filled with fear "My wife, what about my wife?" he grabbed his men's shoulders.

"The protective array around the residence managed to temporarily deter the beasts, but not for long but still allowed enough time for the madam to escape with some of the other Jiu Yun members to protect her. while the others remain to stop the beasts from trying to hunt madam" his breath hitched erratically as he tried to explain.

"Beast?" Lory's expression turn rigid, "Is it a Hybrid Beast?"

The man looked at Lory in shock at his unique appearance but seeing her with the others he thought Lory must be a friend, so he replied with a nod, "Yes, but not only that there are also weird creatures like human-like but with horrendous appearance, I... I have never seen anything like that!" the man didn't understand the plight of the situation either."I'll look for Xi Ying first!" Li Mo Zhen left in a hurry without waiting for the others to speak and his men hastily followed him.

"Yue Yin, help Li Mo Zhen to find Xi Ying" Lory's voice was calm but the worry in her eyes was clear.

"Don't worry, I will find her!" Ming Yue Yin grabbed Yuan Shao's hand then call their flying beast and then jump onto the beast's back.

"He summons all of them…" Girsha suddenly speaks with his calm voice that conveying concern about what might happen.

"Lazarus" Lory muttered in a heavy tone.

"This is different from what happened in Sun Jan city, this time it wasn't the human schemed…. this time it was the Demon himself who summoned the darkness" Girsha purposely spoke in the same language so that Zhao Li Xin and the others could understand how dire the situation was.

There was a long silence between them as Lazarus' threat became very real, Lory's expression became heavier for she couldn't stop worrying about Yang Xi Ying and the safety of the baby in her stomach, luckily she had already blessed Yang Xi Ying baby with light protection so she and her baby will be protected from the dark spell but there was still another danger out there coming from a man so Lory's worries didn't lessen much.

Before long they were startled by thick billowing smoke followed by the sound of an explosion, and from the sound, it seemed to be coming from the city of Yu Jin.

"The beast tide is coming" murmured Girsha.

Lory stared at the gray smoke "And we can't stop them this time" Lory's voice was coated with anger and regret then her expression become heavy with emotion "What once happened, will happen again...is this what Arthea meant?"

"I don't know, but I think we'll find out soon enough," Girsha said with a solemn look.

"What's your command, my Lord?" Jin Hao looked at Zhao Li Xin waiting for his orders.

Zhao Li Xin's face remained calm and composed maybe because of the dream he had seen these past few nights he had predicted this much chaos would happen but what Zhao Li Xin was most worried about was the woman beside him. The thought of what happened in his dream might become reality made Zhao Li Xin ball his fists until his palms bled slightly.

"Mong Ki, Mong Yi, go find Tao Bing Wen and tell him what is about to happen, ask for his assistance if he is in doubt tell him… this is the end, if we fail today there is nothing will be left for us humans" the word from Zhao Li Xin made the Mong brothers gulp as they realized now was the deciding round, whether they would win it all or lose it all.

Mong Yi and Mong Ki cupped their fists and replied simultaneously, "Yes, my Lord!" they turned around preparing to leave but then Mong Ki turned around again and he took a deep look at Lory and Zhao Li Xin "Please take care, my lord, madam"

Lory then nodded and smiled "You too.."

Mong Ki and Mong Yi saluted again and then they left in a hurry and behind them, dozens of shadow guards followed them implying how serious the situation was.

The thunderous roar of Beasts from far away filled the air and shook the ground, they could feel the number of dark creatures increasing significantly.

"You think the dark creatures we're dealing with before are only a small part of it?" Bei Li Yan frowned.

"They went all out this time" Wu San Bo's face became tense.

Guan Men Niang felt her heart constrict in her chest, her hand subconsciously grabbed Wu San Bo's hand. The warmth from Guan Men Niang snapped Wu Xan Bo back, he then looked at her and the anxiety on his face disappeared "Stay here, wait for me" he softly said.

Guan men Niang's eyes reddened, she took a long deep breath to hold back her tears "Come back soon..." she forced a smile.

Jin Hua who was silent for a while did not dare to make a sound afraid that she would bawl her eyes, Jin Hua bit her lower lip while pressing her chin against her chest, she was afraid that if she saw Jin Hao's face she would not be able to let him go.

Jin Hao could feel her sadness then he patted Jin Hua's head gently, "Don't worry too much, I'm not going anywhere before I can marry you off" Jin Hao joked to lighten her mood.

Jin Hua weakly nodded then she glance at Bei Li Yan, seeing Jin Hua's gaze he grins mischievously and said "Don't worry a beautiful man like me won't die as a virgin cause that will be a tragedy" Bei Li Yan lifted his chin proudly and Jin Hao rolls his eyes.

Lan Hua pursed her lips then she nudged Jiang Jin Wei's arms once he turn his head at her Lan Hua then say "Don't die before I took your virginity okay" though it sound like a joke, but why her expression was so serious?

Jiang Jin Wei could feel everyone's eyes fixed on him, even though he was embarrassed Jiang Jin Wei cleared her throat and then answer quietly "Okay..."

Immediately everyone suppressed a smile, Bei Li Yan gave a nod of approval while Lory raised her thumbs up. only Zhao Li Xin remained stoic as if he doesn't hear anything. Their shenanigans instantly lessen Jin Hua's heavy mood, she then looked at them one by one and then place a strong smile on her face, saying: "Please, come back safely, remember we are all waiting for you... all of you" she looked at Lory meaningfully.

Lory nodded quickly then Girsha merge within her soon after a pair of giant wings spread out behind Lory's back, she then fled while Zhao Li Xin and the others followed behind her.

Meanwhile, Jin Hua, Lan Hua, and Guan Men Niang watched them leave until they disappeared in the distance.

"They will be fine" Lan Hua held Jin Hua and Guan Men Niang's hands.

"Yes, they are the most powerful men and women in the world, no one can beat them" a hopeful smile spread across Jin Hua's face but only she knew the fear that was prickling away her heart.

"What should we do now?" Guan Men Niang suddenly asked.

Jin Hua sighed then turned her gaze to the gray smoke from the city "There will be many innocent people who will need our help..."

"Let's save as much as we can, Madam will definitely want that," Lan Hua chimed in.

"Is... is there anything I can help you with?" Guan Men Niang was embarrassed, she wasn't a cultivator, a physician, or anything so she didn't know if her presence would be of much help.

Jin Hua and Lan Hua looked at each other and smiled broadly, "Of course, we will need all the help we can get!" Lan Hua giggle and wrapped her arm around Guan Men Niang's shoulder.

After that they decided to gather with the other members of Hei Shen, before leaving Jin Hua cast her gaze in the direction of the departure of Jin Hao and others, she clench her fist and then go after Guan Men Niang and Lan Hua.
