The Princess And The Lord



When Zhao Li Xin discovered the underground palace, he found an abandoned library that contained many ancient secret books whose whereabouts were unknown but that was because the palace used to be one of Emperor Lei Yu's summer palaces but due to the passage of time there were also many natural disasters and wars that cause the palace sank to the face of the earth unknown to its whereabouts until the last descendant of the emperor found it by accident…however, there is no coincidence as everything was carefully calculated by the last Seeress that ever live in the universe.

In that place, Zhao Li Xin found not only a spatial ring where Huo Long had been waiting but also the final inheritance from her own ancestor even though Zhao Li Xin was unaware of it then.

Zhao Li Xin found an ancient scripture that taught about the Eternal Flame but unlike the records scattered around the world that Zhao Li Xin had were the original records made by Emperor Lei Yu about the Eternal Flame.

With the Immortal Flame in his possession, Zhao Li Xin emerged as the strongest cultivator ever but there was an obstacle, to use the Immortal Flame he destroyed his weakened body due to the cold poison that had polluted his body since he was a child but Zhao Li xin had no attachment to this world so why should he care? as long as he can get rid of all his enemies so he becomes Long Ming the tyrant, the monster.

He didn't even bother learning to control the Eternal Flame maybe he didn't care if he ended up dying under his own power because it might be a better choice for someone like him.

But everything changes when he meets Lory, a mysterious girl with sad eyes but a carefree personality. Lory was everything she wasn't and she did everything she wouldn't, she showed him that life is a gift, no matter how hard your life is, life must be fought for.

'You lacked heart...' Huo Long said.

He's right other than anger what other emotion does he recognize? flame is not only about hatred, it was also passion, grief, love... That is why it's impossible for Zhao Li Xin to control his flame until he met Lory.

"Li Xin be careful, don't hurt yourself!"

"Call my name if you need my help, okay!"

"Don't act tough! just say it if you need my help, you know if you get hurt I'll get pissed, right?!"

Zhao Li Xin stifled a laugh when he heard Lory shower him with concern that was almost like a warning, in the past he would have felt offended when someone doubted his strength but now he felt warmth seep through his cold heart. Actually, he no longer felt so much hatred or anger that tormented him to the point of numbing his senses anymore.

He wasn't sure since when did this happen? perhaps most of those negative feelings had been left behind in his old world as if he had been reborn again, and in a world where no one knew him nonetheless. He lost his fame, wealth, and authority as a Lord but he had Lory by his side he even regained his power bit by bit so perhaps it was a blessing for him so that he could start over.

Though he is still not sure nevertheless he will take this chance so everyone's sacrifices will not be in vain.

Meanwhile, the beast fix its gaze closely on him, Zhao Li Xin tilted his head seeming unbothered by the beast's intimidation then suddenly the beast spat a green liquid at him.

Zhao Li Xin take a quick step to avoid the attack, the beast got irritated then swung its four arms towards him ready to tear him apart but with his light footwork Zhao Li Xin dodged gracefully but sharply like an eagle gliding in the sky.

The beast's claws grew significantly as its body doubled in size almost to the ceiling of the cave, but that didn't hinder its movements.

The beast whisk its massive claws making deep marks into the ground every time it missed to hurt it. Facing the powerful attacks he was unfazed instead he became more focused and his movements became swift with every second simultaneously he co could feel flames filling his veins at rapid speed, and unstoppable energy flowing through his body.

Zhao Li Xin lunged and then threw a heavy punch at the beast's head causing it to stagger but it wasn't enough therefore he prepares to launch another attack but the beast opened its jaws and released a frozen breath in his direction.

"Li Xin!" Lory screamed anxiously.

Zhao Li Xin made a circular motion with his hands soon after the wall of fire blocked the gust of the freezing wind, still the attack was so fierce Zhao Li Xin push to the ground and barely could hold on.

His immortal flame is only at the first stage so he is no match for the beast's power but it's not enough to discourage him.

He gathered strength in his legs, he gather his qi to protect the vital point of his body then let himself be blown away by the monster's strength.

But only for the moment  Zhao Li Xin pressed his feet on the ground and then shot up with all his power once again he land multiple hits to the creature right between the beast's eyes then on its throat, chest then right at the beast's stomach.

However, his numerous attack give so little effect only make increased it wrath then the beast swung his hand towards Zhao Li Xin and then managed to grab Zhao Li Xin's body and then hauled him against the ground very hard.

Zhao Li Xin coughed up blood and Lory who witnessed Zhao Li Xin in such a dire state immediately rushed towards Zhao Li Xin without caring if it caused it would reveal her identity or not.

The Maren's eyes glinted ferociously as it saw  Zhao Li Xin slump on the ground then the beast raised its giant feet to step on him at that time Zhao Li Xin's eyes snapped open, and a smirk played on his pale face as he punch the soles of the beast's feet soon after a red flames run from the soles of the beast's feet to its thighs, abdomen, the chest, then the head and a flame suddenly emerge and devour the giant beast's body.

The beast writhe in agony as yellowish flames enveloped the beast's body making it like a giant torch.

Unfortunately, the intense heat was not only felt by the beast but also by Zhao Li Xin who already used up all of his power so he is unable to control the fire from hurting him but at that dangerous moment Lory came then wrapped her arms around him within a second a transparent water bubbles protected them from the wild flames.

At the same time, Lory used healing powers to heal Zhao Li Xin's internal injuries. Like fire doused by cold water, Zhao Li Xin immediately felt the scorching heat that torment his body gradually subsided together with the excruciating pain.

The Writh got intimidated by the flames that filled almost the entire cave, they immediately backed away with their tails between their legs.

Garrof and Lloyd watched the blaze with their mouths agape, their hearts pounding only to realize the depth of the man's strength.

"Will the fire kill us too?" Lloyd's voice shook.

Garrof gulped "I..don't know"

The flames leaped up to the ceiling melting the once-frozen cave, but it didn't stop but instead grew bigger as if wanting to show off what it could do.

[Li Xin, can you control your flame] Lory whispered and his soft breath tickled her ear.

a smile spread across her beautiful face [Yes...don't worry everything will be fine...] Zhao Li Xin closed his eyes then slowly took a deep breath, not long after the flames seemed to be sucked away by a vacuum soon the sea of fire disappeared in a matter of seconds as if it never existed in the first place if it hadn't left scorched marks at all the cave they might have thought it was all just an imagination.

Apart from the lingering hot air Garrof and Lloyd felt that just overcome a dangerous situation even more than a Maren itself.
