The Princess And The Lord



It is not difficult for Zhao Li Xin to follow Lory because the giant Beast left obvious marks all over the place due to its massive body.

Zhao Li Xin could guess Lory deliberately lures the beast as far as possible so that she could use her power freely without inciting anyone's suspicion and at the same time save them from the impact of the battle that might occur especially for the three stupid youngsters that seem weaker than the other two.

Zhao Li Xin still had a hard time understanding why Lory cared so much about the strangers she just met, especially that annoying boy with the strange hairstyle... what's his name again?

As Zhao Li Xin grumbled he quickened his pace to look for his troublemaker wife, meanwhile, the princess was busy luring the furious Zhyger when she saw an open field perfect for fighting the beast, Lory immediately summoned The Trinity's staff then turned it into a bow,

The wing on her back spread and with a quick movement, she released several ice arrows toward the beast.

Ice arrows rushed and pierce the giant beast's body causing the beast to stun then the Zhyger roared soon his body engulf with flame as the result melted Lory's ice arrows. The beast ember eyes glistening then glare at Lory.

"Oh, you can still hold on, not bad" Lory changed his weapon to a long sword "Let's see how strong you are!" Lory dived at great speed, and Zhygre felt a threat coming towards it and the creature opened its wide jaws and flames burst like torches, but Lory was unfazed because she expected the beast's movement.

Lory raised the Lucient shield soon after a transparent purple shield appeared and then blocked the flames.

"You call that fire!" Lory sneered.

she raised the sword that was imbued with ice power and then slice the beast's head causing the beast to scream in agony as it fell to the ground with a loud thud.

The beast's head opened and blood flowed onto the ground creating a small puddle. Lory landed on the ground smoothly and cooly stared at the dead beast. As expected it didn't take long to handle the beast with her real power.

[Lory!]

Lory was startled to hear a cold familiar voice [Li Xin?] he waved his hand at Zhao Li Xin who had just arrived, [I thought you would cultivate until morning]

[Luckily I didn't, otherwise, I wouldn't know what you were doing] Zhao Li Xin flicked Lory's forehead.

Lory pursed her lips while rubbing her forehead [It's not a dangerous thing, you know I can deal with something like this without breaking a sweat] Lory lifted her chin acting cocky.

Suddenly a black shadow loomed over their heads, Lory and Zhao Li Xin looked up reflexively, and immediately the pride on Lory's face was replaced with an annoyed expression [Whhyyy...?]

The Zhyger that was supposed to be dead somehow got back up and the head that had been split open overgrow with a strange-looking root that slowly merged the head back together, miraculously the beast alive again then the beast's orange eyes turned completely white and tree branches growing from inside the beast and like vines, the branches moves then envelop the entire beast body.

[Ohhh...I do not expect that...] Lory looks at the beast incredulously.

The beast let out a long roar and then pounced towards them but Zhao Li Xin swiftly jumped while carrying Lory to the air.

The Zhyger furious from losing its prey again and the beast roared at Lory and Zhao Li Xin soon after the creature's entire body was covered with flame.

[The beast increased its power...] said Zhao Li Xin.

[But I have split the head of the beast even the parasite beast won't live after I split their head!] Lory didn't understand what happened that beast wasn't the Zhyger she knows.

[What is that?] For the first time, Lory failed to recognize the enemy before her.

Zhao Li Xin remembers what the spirit sword warning, [Doesn't matter, we need to kill that thing first!] Zhao Li Xin landed on the ground then put down Lory and say: [Let me handle that]

Lory's eyes bulged in fright [No! are you crazy, you are not strong enough, your cultivation still...]

[That's the reason why…] Zhao Li Xin interrupted [How do you think I became strong, you can't possibly believe I'm just sitting around cultivating right? like you said everything has its cost, this is what I have to do...] Zhao Li Xin patted Lory's head [Don't interfere, Lory, I need to do this alone...I'll be fine] he reassured her again.

Lory was still hard to accept but she couldn't refuse Zhao Li Xin's wish thus Lory could only silently let Zhao Li Xin have his way.

Zhao Li Xin understood Lory's worries, but if a cultivator wanted to become stronger meditating will not be enough, especially if she want to awaken his immortal flames, for that he had to do to the extreme!

Zhao Li Xin took off his jacket, he then grinned at the beast [You will be a stepping stone for this Lord to regain his strength, you should be honored]

Anxiety squeezed the air from her lungs as Lory watched Zhao Li Xin fight the Zhyger, unconsciously she clasped her hand so tightly her knuckle turn white at the same time her eyes follow Zhao Li Xin's movement intently without blinking, Lory remained vigilant just in case Zhao Li Xin was in danger she would immediately step in.

The beast swung its forelegs but Zhao Li Xin managed to dodge then jumped on the back of the beast but he was hit by the beast's wings and he knocked to the ground.

[Li Xin!] Lory screamed in panic thankfully Zhao Li Xin managed to land on his feet even though it was clear to see his left arm tremble due to the strong hit, [Back off, I'm fine!] he raised his right palm to stop Lory from coming.

Lory's movements halted, her eyes filled with fear, anxiety, and helplessness yet she didn't dare to move because Zhao Li Xin didn't allow her to interfere so she can only reluctantly comply.

Only now she understood how Zhao Li Xin felt whenever she forced Zhao Li Xin to trust her when she took the risk, she just realized how selfish she was and how it must hurt him.

The situation reversed, now Zhao Li Xin had lost almost all of his strength, and like her Zhao Li Xin also had to work very hard to regain his strength perhaps more because at least at that time she still had Girsha that more or less shared her burden and protected her at the same time.

However, it was not the same with Zhao Li Xin because whatever hardships he faced to gain his power he had to face it all alone and there are very little she could do to help him as she was not a cultivator.
