Chapter 463 - Misfortune

The next day comes, Zhao Li Xin rests his back on the headboard while reading the book lory read about the myths and legend about the beast who dwelled on this mountain. The book gives him a little knowledge about the best although he is not certain if the story is true or not, his Princess might think the same but learning the story he has a little hint of how strong the beast was.

He finishes the book then put the book on the small table next to him. He rose from the bed then he put on his pants then he took the scattered clothing on the floor and folded neatly on the table. He was too excited last night, he impatiently undresses her and pushes her on the bed, he practically devours her. 

Zhao Li Xin is a man with a few d.e.s.i.r.e, frankly, his few d.e.s.i.r.e is close to nil, but after he met Lory he realizes his d.e.s.i.r.e is multiply and increasing to leaped and bound. After he met her he becomes notice with the amount of wealth he gathers through all the years, the money who used to be kept unnoticed inside the treasury now has its use. Then he realizes he needs to acc.u.mulate more if he wants to dotted her to the max.

When he knew Lory identity as Princess his need of money becomes more apparent, as a Princess lory must live in luxury to the point she might numb with it even though Lory keeps remind him that her family is frugal and she was not spoiled with luxury but still, how frugal royalty could be especially when he heard Lory story that implies that she was dotted by everyone in her Kingdom.

Later she might have harsh life but half her life isn't she lives comfortably in her palace, no wonder Lory always calm whenever he gift her jewelry she might use to see something like that in her old world.

Later he want power, he is someone who can breakthrough just by breathing so he never cultivated as much as other people but when Lory came he want to be stronger, he knew he is only powerful in this continent so what about in other continents, is he still the strongest man and what about the Demon that stalked his Princess, is he stronger than that demon?

Then he learned about fear, anxiety, sadness and most of all love. In the past, he thought there's only black and grey on his heart but know, he felt there's a colorful dot on his heart, it feel weird to feel a lot of thing at the same time, he still needs times to understand his own feeling but this doesn't feel bad, for changed he finally able to related with other people when they heard people complain about their life or when they talk about their wife…..it's weird but also comforting.

Zhao Li Xin takes a seat at the bedside, he c.a.r.e.s.ses Lory cheeks gently "Lory is getting late now, the sun is raising…weak up princess" he softly said.

Lory groan as she pulls the blanket above her head, such a childish move make him chuckles "Don't you want to have breakfast with me? come on weak up…"

"Unnn no! my back aches, my stomach cramped, my hands sore, I'm tired….." she w.h.i.n.es from behind the blanket angrily. She lay face down cover in the blanket as she tries to hide from Zhao Li Xin nags.

He admits this is his fault, well he is only a man, after all, he massaged Lory back to make her feel better "You will feel better after a hot bath" he coaxed her again.

She finally lowers the blanket but then she shouted at Zhao Li Xin "STOP squeezing my butt!" Lory scolded, it feel better when he massaged her back but why his hand got lower and stop in her but instead, is he try to provoke her!

"Oh, sorry.." he doesn't realize where he put his hand, he retracts his hand reluctantly, no wonder it feel so...plump.

Lory sighs her head plop to the pillow again, she feel exhausted. Why this always happens is it because she is not strong enough, should she get exercise again? could everything change if all her power return?

One day Lory would learn the hard truth that her power means nothing against Zhao Li Xin's eagerness in bed.

Zhao Li Xin put on his white inner robes then he turns around "You want me to bath you?" he raised her brows.

"Don't you dare.." she glare at him. She is not a baby and she like to bath alone.

Zhao Li Xin laughs lightly, he lifts a cup of wine while lean on the table watching her with sly smiles "I never realize my princess can be so lazy" he teased.

"Who fault is that?" she pouts, she obviously blaming him.

He calmly sips his wine then snickered "That because you keep asking me more, I just do what you told…."

Lory blush as an imaginable smoked burst from her head, she does say something like that last night. He throws a pillow to Zhao Li Xin but the Lord smoothly evade the pillow, he put the winecup on the table then he walk toward him "I will take a bath at another room then we shall have breakfast together, okay" his s.e.xy voice make tingling and her anger dissipated in instant.

"Okay…" Lory helplessly concedes, who told her to marry a s.e.xy husband.

At the bathroom, Mong Yi helps him taking off his robes, Zhao Li Xin soaked himself on the tub only Mong Yi and Mong Ki who help him bathing. Other than Lory only Mong Ki and Mong Yi who was given permission to see him in this situation. There was one time an eager female Hei Shen member who wants to serve him, she foolish enough to sneak into his bathroom, what happened next is her eyes gauged and she was thrown to White dragon palace and become Jin Hao human experiment.

Zhao Li Xin is anything but kind, the truth is he become a lot soften after he met Lory. the old Zhao Li Xin perhaps is crueler than Lao Min Na and Mo Ning Yuan combined. 

"Milord, That Mo woman is having a meeting with Nan Yu Qi," Mong Ki said.

Zhao Li Xin rests his head on the tub with his eyes close seemingly indifferent with the news "How is That Nan woman condition.." he said in a lazy tone.

"A thousand ants poison effect only lasts for two weeks although her skin was still slightly red and become s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e from the sunlight but her condition is improving," said Mong Yi there's a blatant annoyance in his face because he thought Nan Yu Qi punishment for humiliated Lory is too light.

Zhao Li Xin opens his eyes his dark cold eyes stare at the ceiling as he immersed in his thought then he said "Add the poison dosage for that Nan Woman"

"Really, Milord" Mong Yi exclaimed excitedly but then he realizes he overreacted he composed himself then bow politely "Understood Milord"

"That Mo woman is working hard, why not lend a hand for her…" Zhao Li Xin let out a long exhales as he relaxed.

"Milord?" Mong Ki doesn't understand Zhao Li Xin's word, what he means helping Mo Ning Yuan.

"There are two keys left, one in Chen family which she almost has it the other is in the hand of Nan family which she never has connection before, I think that sly Mo wants to take advantage of Nan Yu Qi condition. I certain that vain woman is in a state of panic because her ugly face, beauty is a weapon for someone like her, Mo Ning Yuan as a woman must know about this" Zhao Li Xin said with his eyes close as if he talks to himself.

"Mo Ning Yuan offered herself to help Nan Yu Qi condition but if Nan Yu Qi condition improving…." Mong ki lift his head abruptly "That's why Milord want us to poison Nan Yu Qi again?" he finally understands 

"If her condition drop again she had no choice but to accept Mo Ning Yuan help and Mo Ning Yuan might exchange her help with the keys!" Mong Yi was flabbergasted.

Zhao Li Xin sneer "Depend if Nan Yu Qi knowledged about the key or not, with this we can estimate how many people knew about the keys, also..." he raised from the tub, Mong Yi hands him a clean towel. 

"Thousands ants poison is not deathly poison but hard to get rid completely and the antidote is very rare, if Mo Ning Yuan want to heal it she will need help, soon or later she need to contact Lao Min Na, we can track Lao Min Na location through her" Zhao Li Xin walk calmly behind the screen divider. Mong Yi followed his lord to help him dress.

Meanwhile, Mong Ki left in shock, he doesn't think this far. They have lost Lao Min Na track for some time and that woman is very sleek for hiding from them this long. The truth is he had lost idea how to track Lao Min Na but Zhao Li Xin created the opportunity from the unexpected situation.

Mong Ki admiration Zhao Li Xin increase further, he had served him for years but still Zhao Li Xin able to amazed him, if only his Lord is more determined and less lazy, he might rule the world someday….Mong Ki shakes his head, his lord is way too lazy to do that.

On the other hand, Mong Yi who is in the middle helping Zhao Li Xin dress can't help but pity Nan Yu Qi. That beautiful woman who was adored by many men was poison by his Lord…..twice, one time because she provokes his wife the second is to bait his enemy. Although he hated Nan Yu Qi but still he secretly lit a candle for Nan Yu Qi misfortune.
