Chapter 40 - Frivolous Lord

"When would I see Lao Min Na fights?" Lory suddenly asked everyone was praise Lao Min Na talent she wants to know how good she is.

"I don't know" Zhao Li Xin beckoned Mong Yi to come, he cupped his fist respectfully before approach Zhao Li Xin "Second Miss Lao would fight after two more competition" Mong Yi said.

"En…." Zhao Li Xin grunted after he hears what he said.

'Milord can you at least answer normally, this subordinated feel hurt' Mong Yi lament to himself. But before he left Lory stops him "Brother Mong I heard Lao Min Na doing great at the Black Forest, do you know what happened?" Lory asked excitedly.

"Yes, we heard she manage to kill a pack of snow beast Ape" Mong Yi said.

"Oh, is that beast hard to kill?" Lory becomes more interested.

"Not really, it's only profound level Beast" Mong Ki said "The beast is a bit more clever than a normal beast at their level and they like move in a pack, so it's hard to handle"

"Is Lao Min Na kill them all by herself" Lory amazed, Lao Min Na is really good no wonder she always so confident.

"She did not kill the whole pack, she used sleeping powder to make them unconscious then she took the 'frozen fruit jade' frim their Nest, she only kills a few apes who was still awake"

"What this fruit used for?" lory hear another interesting matter.

"It's...…."Mong Yi suddenly feels the cold air around him, when he raised his head a certain Lord glared at him viciously. Zhao Li Xin annoyed Lory speaks too much with Mong Yi and ignoring him watching her smiling and being friendly with other Man make him irritated. Mong Yi knew he just touch a land mine, he feels cold sweat on his back he smiles awkwardly at Lory "That...you must ask our Lord, he knew more about it than this servant" Mong Yi bow at her before he left swiftly.

'Sorry sister Luo, these servants still want to live!!'

Lory stunned how fast he was gone, she suddenly remembered about her Friend Radcliff or Cliff he also can come and disappeared as Mong Yi does and their temperament almost the same too, she unconsciously smiles when she remembered her naggy old friend.

Zhao Li Xin sees her bitter smiled this is not the first time he saw her like that, she always been cheerfull and bubbly but sometimes she makes that kinda expression. Lory clapped her hands abruptly "Okay tell me about this…fruit!!" she smiled cheerfully at Zhao Li Xin, she swiftly back to her happy mood her quick change make Zhao Li Xin perplexed.

"Frozen Jade Fruit used to accelerate cultivation but they must at least at Knight level at perfection stages" Zhao Li Xin said with expressionless face, he never interested with this kinda things not like others Zhao Li Xin never used boosters like pill, elixir or 'food supplement' to help him cultivated other than to suppress his poisoned he never eat that kinda stuff but Zhao Li Xin probably the only one who does that in this world and this could work because 'Divined Body' he had.

"Lao Min Na probably already reach Master level" Zhao Li Xin said lazily, others make said Lao Min Na is a peerless genius at the age sixteen she already Master level most people who reach this level are already in their twenties and Lao Min Na not only strong cultivator she also talented alchemist, if the elders knew about this they might fights each other to recruited Lao Min Na into their Sects but for Zhao Li Xin Lao Min Na talent is only so-so at her age Zhao Li Xin already at the peak stage Grandmaster level and he also suppressed by his poisoned.

"Is it so hard to raise your level?" Lory always curious about this, cultivators always secretive when it comes to their cultivation level.

"Depend on your talent and your luck, some people need six to eight months, some a year or two but there also someone who needs a decade to breakthrough. The higher your level the harder to raise it"

Lorry nodded, she slowly begins to understand more about cultivation.in her world people who have 'Gift' not try to raise their power but instead to control it and it also depends on their talent and also a lot of hard work. People who born with great potential like Lucient must learn how to control their power or their power would control them, some people got scared with their own power and they choose not to explore their power further worries about the consequences.

At the end Lory conclude cultivate is easier than 'Gift' at least all this cultivator do is deliberately and they have full power to control their power not like 'Gift' if not because of that 'Mana controller' were never created, it's created in different size and different color just like mobile phone, even the function was also updated every year.

Suddenly there's an uproar on the stage, people screaming and cheering at the stage. Lory wakes up from her daze her attention back to the competition, on the stage two women against each other one wearing fiery red robes she looks beautiful and fearless with the red dress she smiles with confidence, that woman is Xiang Feng Ran, Zhao Li Xin crazy admirer. While the opponent is a woman with a yellow dress she is a bit shorter than Xiang Feng Ran but she also looks beautiful but in a 'cute' way.

Zhao Li Xin doesn't have an interest in the fights he sees Xiang Feng Ran with blank looks he had been forgotten about her these few days, only now he realizes that woman is still here…whatever. His attention back to the excited girl beside him, he pours sweet tea for her then he sighs sweet tea, sweet snack, sweet pastry, she really loves sweet. He should make her wash her mouth with his mouth elixir so she doesn't have a toothache. Zhao Li Xin still thinks what he does for her is normal but for someone who used never care about other people's existence, his attitude is mind-blowing. He already crosses the boundary between Master and servant even boundary between friends with this he just pushes his boundary to another level and he did it unconsciously.

The fight between two women is quite fierce, Xiang Feng ran moves is sharp and swift one quick move she already hit the yellow woman twice one on her shoulder an another on her stomach, she was pushed backward until she kneeled on the floor but she did not give up, she swallows some pills and her face regain her color then she raised from the floor and attack Xiang Feng Ran with her fist, her strong attack easily dodge by Xiang Feng Ran. In a quick moment she raised her leg and kick the yellow dress woman, people can hear the sound of bones breaking the yellow woman push out of the stages then she hits the ground with loud voice, the referee stop the fights and Xiang Feng ran becomes the winner while the yellow girl is unconscious on the floor a few seconds later she was taken by people with the same color with her.

"What is she eating before?" Lory asking while her eyes still glue on the stage and her mouth busy munched pastry.

"Just a pill to relieve her from pain temporary" he wipes crumbs on her corner lips gently, his sudden action makes Lory stunned and then blush heavily "T…thank you" she shifts her gaze from him swiftly, at first she wants to complain about his frivolous gesture but when she saw him lick leftover crumbs on his finger and smiled at her gently the princess knocked out on the spot, she feels someone do 'Karate chopped' on her fragile little heart, once again she was lost.

On the stage people cheering for Xiang Feng Ran. Her father Xiang Wu Ci is on the podium with other elders he nodded with a proud look, his daughter doesn't disappoint him.

"Congratulation Master Xiang" said one of the Elder

"You have a talented daughter" another one comment.

"She still young and need a lot of things to learn" he said with humble smiles. Deep down he sneered at them they know they hated to see his daughter succeed after what happened between Xiang Feng Ran and Zhao Li Xin her reputation was ruined he never understand why his daughter so obsessed with the useless Prince it's even more humiliating when the weak Prince himself rejected his daughter, he hated Zhao Li Xin so much because of him he becomes a jokes within his circle one day he would make that useless Prince beg for his daughter and he won't give her to him, his talented Daughter can only married with amazing man like 'Long Ming' the Hei Shen Sect Master. If only Xiang Wu Ci knew whose that 'Long Ming' real identity is, he might cough with blood and faint on the spot.

Xiang Feng Ran smiles proudly when she got off from the stage her eyes caught the Man with a white mask on the second floor, the man doesn't pay attention to her, he busy flirting with the woman next to him. For some reason, his figure looks familiar to her but she doesn't know from where. The woman beside him inadvertently looking back at Xiang Feng Ran but a second later the man beside her holds her chin gently and shifts her gaze back at him, his frivolous action makes Xiang Feng Ran frowned, she continues walking and forget about the frivolous couple.

While Lory screaming inside 'Mind my heart...mind my heart PLEASE!!!!'
