Chapter 358: Prophecy

"So, you meant to say that such a thing really exists?" Tang Li was still trying to wrap her mind around the information provided by Mo Yuhan.

A thing that has the power to destroy the four royal families, but at the same time, the person who owns it will become the ultimate ruler, someone who will always stand on top. 

This was the prophecy that has been known to only a few people.

Tang Li shook her head in disbelief, "I don't believe in such things. What prophecy? What century are we in? How could such supernatural things even exist? Do you know how that thing looks like?"

Mo Yuhan said, "I don't know."

"So, after retiring from the military, what was your connection with them?" She asked.

"I don't know where that thing is but the map that leads to it…has always been with me. I was cooperating with the military to keep that thing safe and hidden," He answered.

"A map?" She was suddenly reminded of the piece of paper that she acquired in front of that hidden bar; it looked like a map.

"Yes but I have six pieces of it with me, the seventh piece is not found," He replied.

"And you're searching for it in States? How sure you are that you will find it here? And why would you suddenly search for it when everything was going well?"

Mo Yuhan shook his head, "When my connection with the military was revealed, Kingsman Faction spread the word to all the various factions and powers who were already looking for that thing. Then, there were rumors that one of the powers have already acquired a map which leads to it…"

"But there was no second map," Tang Li completed the sentence for him, "Despite that, the higher-ups in the military became restless and decided to look for that thing before anybody else could reach it." 

And as much as she knew Mo Yuhan, he would not have participated in all this mess if it wasn't for her. Kingsman Faction tried various methods to deal with her and because they were so secretive, Mo Yuhan chose this way to find their mastermind and deal with him for once and all.

Looking at his handsome face, she could feel her heartache, "Mo Yuhan, is it worth it?" Is it worth it for you to do all this for me?

The man glanced at her with an indifferent face but his azure eyes seemed to be sparkling.

After a long time when he did not reply, she smiled, "Come, sleep with me."

He raised an eyebrow at her suggestive words.

"Mo Yuhan, what are you thinking that got your ears all red? Don't try to take advantage of a poor patient alright?" She rolled to the side to give him some space.

As Mo Yuhan laid beside her, she scooted closer to him. He pinched her chin before capturing her lips, nibbling and devouring a bit slowly and torturously, he sucked her lips a little before parting. And that fleeting yet hot kiss left her hanging just like that.

"Isn't it you who is always ready to pounce on me?" He whispered in a husky voice that made her tingly all over. His hand glided down her stomach before making its way inside her hospital gown. His two fingers glided over her panty as he continued, "Look, you're wet already."

She closed her eyes to let the pleasure drench her a little more….only to be drenched by cold water instead. The man cruelly removed his fingers after teasing her.

"Mo Yuhan, can we…?"

"No."

"What about a quickie?" she pleaded.

"No," He sternly replied looking at her bandaged arms and legs.

She glared at him before kneading his member with her knee, "Look, you're hard already."

But the man gritted his teeth to restrain himself.

Tang Li felt hopeless. Why couldn't God make him a little ugly?

God: "_" You double-standard hypocritic superficial human being. Don't drag me into this. Didn't you chase him because of his looks in the first place?

"One chocolate…Two chocolate…Three chocolate…"

"What are you doing ?" Mo Yuhan asked as he looked at the woman who was looking at the ceiling while counting non-existent chocolates.

"I am counting chocolate to control myself from pouncing on you... Four chocolate…Five.."

He said, "You are supposed to count sheep," And that too when you are unable to sleep.

She sighed. Why was she distracted anyways? She had many things that she wanted to ask. "Mo Yuhan, tell me, are these factions a fool? Why would they chase after a thing so blindly which can turn out to be a scam in the end?"

"Human beings have always been greedy creatures. Even if there was a small probability that this thing really exists, they would give it their best shot to get it. It is like a lottery to them, they believe they can turn their luck overnight if they acquire it."

She couldn't help but ask, "So, right now, they are all after your head?" The answer was pretty obvious but she still asked it anyway.

He nodded.

Tang Li was a bit speechless. They were taking such a big risk by offending the Crown Prince of Mo Family for a thing that may exist in legends only. 

"You're like a hot potato right now," She murmured, "I think such prophecy and magical things only exist in legends. Do you believe it?" 

Mo Yuhan was silent for few seconds before speaking, "I have not seen it before so I can't speak about its existence. But there have been many rare occurrences in the royal families. Do you remember when you deformed Meng Zhilan's ring with a gun in the amusement park?" he asked.

Tang Li nodded. How could she forget that women who popped out to show off that she was her husband's fiancée? Now that she thought about her, that woman did not bother her at all.
