The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 1135 The Monster Arrival



Owen was annoyed at how nosy Lory was thus he shouted angrily at Lory "Stop being nosy, what else you can you do, huh? with little strength you got you will only drag us down, you should realize you are nothing but a dead weight for us!"

Zhao Li Xin's expression darkened, inadvertently the Qi inside him burst fortunately Zhao Li Xin still managed to control it moreover his power has greatly weakened so no one noticed it except Garrof and Lyod who could feel the air around them suddenly turn thin and sharp like a edge of a sword graze their skin causing Garrof and Lyod stumped while subconsciously cold sweat flown down their backs.

Simultaneously Garrof and Lyod's gaze shifted to the man who was sitting quietly with his head covered by a hoodie, they weren't sure if this threat was coming from him or not. but one thing is certain that the man is not what he seems.

all of a sudden a thunderous roar shook the place they were in, Lydia and the others reflexively covered their ears while Lyod hurriedly turned off the light stick and Lory follow suit.

"SH*T!" Owen cursed.

"Sssh!" Dan quickly covers Owen's mouth, he put his index finger on his mouth to sign his brother to shut up.

Zhao Li Xin closed his eyes and then enhanced his five senses, so he could perceive the movement and energy radiating from the creature

[The creature is quite big, I heard the sounds of wings flapping and heat radiating from the beast] Deep wrinkles formed on Zhao Li Xin's brows.

Once again the Beast makes a thunderous roar, Lory ponders for a second then her eyes widen [Ah, I know what it is...]

"The Zhyger is here!" Garrof holds his breath.

"It's really here!" Lyod's voice tightens.

Lydia peeked from the window and she gasped "It's so big!"

"Miss Boyd come down!" Owen pushed Lydia's head out of the window at the same time the creature moved its large head in the direction Lydia was, though only for a moment the creature could sense another presence other than itself.

"Everyone quiet!" Lyod shut them up and everyone became silent.

[What's that ugly creature?] Zhao Li Xin muttered.

[Oh, that's Zhyger, shaped like a tiger but has wide feather wings and strong feet covered with sharp claws like an eagle, very agile despite the size of its body but what's annoying is that he has a sharp sense especially his eyes] Lory explained in a whisper.

[Is it strong?] From the energy he pick up, Zhao Li Xin didn't feel that the beast was more dangerous than the beasts he fought in his world.

Lory shrugs nonchalantly, she wants to say it is but again they have fought against numerous powerful beasts including Lazarus so...what kind of standard she should use.

"Lyod, can you fight now?" Garrof needed all the help he could get.

Lyod grabbed the double-edge saber lying beside him, "I'm as ready as you are!"

Garrof smiled in relief, he did not dare to say but it's gonna be hard to fight without him cause the two boys though they are strong will not be enough to face Zhyger. Garrof then turned to Lory and Zhao Li Xin "Miss Boyd and you two wait here, beasts are sensitive to sound so don't make any noise" he warned sternly.

"Okay, you guys have to be careful!" Lydia warned them worriedly.

"Don't worry about that Miss Boyd with me here nothing bad will happen!" Owen said confidently but Lydia just smiled dryly thankfully Owen didn't notice.

Owen then turned to Lory and Zhao Li Xin "You guys just stay here and don't bother Miss Boyd, okay!" he acted like a possessive boyfriend.

Lory raised her thumb 'OK!'

Garrof rolled his eyes at how silly his boys is but he didn't have time to reprimand the young lover, "Dan gets behind the Zhyger, Owen found a good position to aim the beast's eyes, and Lyod you come with me, we attack head on!" after he gave instructions, they simultaneously storm out.

Lory watched the scene unfold before her with a slightly nostalgic yet put all aside she thought Garrof was quite a good leader and he seemed used to giving orders, furthermore judging from his age and demeanor he probably participated in the dark age war, perhaps...soldier, a captain or commander maybe?

"Don't be afraid Miss Jane, Garrof was an ex-commander of Ultima's infantry during the Dark Age War so he is definitely able to kill that beast" Lydia reassure Lory cause she thought Lory's quietness is because she was terrified.

"That's great" Lory answer with a smile.

Ultima's special infantry was created by combining soldiers from various countries to deal with the rampant Demon Beasts, they were usually sent to raid Demon Beast nests, and sometimes they were tasked with capturing certain Demon Beasts that would be used as experiments so they could study the creatures' abilities and weaknesses, they also given the task of saving someone in a place infested with Demon Beasts simply because the higher-ups consider that person valuable.

because of the difficulty of their mission, many people called them a suicide squad, and because of that, Harland became one of the countries that vehemently refused to join the force.

At that time, Lucas saw how they used Ultima infantry recklessly and sometimes without a proper plan, which caused most of them to die.

Lory also agreed with Lucas' decision because she also didn't like how they easily sacrificed the soldiers' lives and sometimes for pointless results, therefore none of Harland's soldiers joined Ultima's infantry.

Then again Lory understood why Garrof was pressing her to go apparently not only to hide their mission but maybe Garrof genuinely didn't want to see anyone else die in vain.

[That' beast didn't look too strong?] Zhao Li Xin watched how the creature moved and attacked, and he was even more sure that the creature was only so-so.

[Yeah, but I feel something strange about this creature] Lory walked to the barred window of a side building, she removed the old curtains from the window after that Lory could see the battle clearly.

Lory pondered what was bothering her then she remember [Oh yeah this creature is smaller than the ones I've faced before, why is it though?] Lory tilted her head as she ponder, could be because it was the Dark Age time? but the Zhyger she faces is not affected by the demon parasite so the size should remain the same right?

Feeling bored, Zhao Li Xin averted his eyes, [Maybe this one lacks nutrition so it stopped growing] he turn around after giving a perfunctory answer.

[That could be true...?] Lory shrugged, she honestly didn't really care, luckily this one was smaller since the one she faced before was twice as big and if memory serves right, the Zhyger she fought was a lot stronger too.

Zhao Li Xin lost his interest, therefore he had no intention to waste more of his time watching the boring fight. After all, he didn't care about Garrof and the others well being.

As cruel as it might sound, Zhao Li Xin wouldn't even flinch even if they all end up dying, so in the meantime, he rather uses his valuable time for something more useful

[I will cultivate over there then, who knows I might jump to the perfection stage tomorrow morning] Zhao Li Xin said like it was nothing.

Lory scrunched up her face once again she felt fortunate that no cultivator heard this, she finally understood what a true 'Peerless talent' looks like, heck, even Lao Min Na with Lazarus's help didn't possess this kind of Heaven-defying talent.

No wonder Jin Hao and the others often said that watching Zhao Li Xin's progress was an infuriating yet humbling experience and that was also the reason why the four Palace Kings even though each of them could be considered one of the best cultivators in the world were not dared to boast about their abilities and that was because they had someone like Zhao Li Xin as their ideal.

[Okay, don't worry about anything, go over there and cultivate!] Lory immediately chased this leaving cheat away.

Zhao Li Xin walked leisurely to a corner of the room and then sat in the lotus position, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath before being immersed into a meditative state.

Lydia didn't know what Zhao Li Xin and Lory were talking about, but she thought about how relaxed they were, was it because of what she said about Garrof? Well, she wasn't lying indeed Garrof and Lyod were very strong if it wasn't for Owen Lyod wouldn't have been hurt.

Lydia let out a long exhale she can't help worried with Owen's hot temper and rash actions, thus she hope he wouldn't cause any more trouble this time.
