This is another thing he never understands before, how can something so sweet can be scary at the same time. Falling in love with Lory is the most fulfilling but the scariest thing he ever has done, to love something that can disappear at any moment is not an easy thing to do especially for a control freak like him. 

The next morning Lory feel lethargic, her gift could heal her soreness but not her fatigue because fatigue is not an illness that's why Lory keeps yawning, she even let Ling Zi help her dress and do her hair and jewelry, lory is too tired to think what to wear right now.

​​

on the other hand, Zhao Li Xin is in a great mood, although his expression remains the same but for anyone who knew him they would say he was glowing. Because he is going overboard last night lory didn't let him do her hair just in case she accidentally raised the beast again and so Zhao Li Xin kicks out of the room and has no choice but wait in the main hall with everyone.

"You look tired..." Yang Xi Ying came with a steaming bowl "Here, eat this first"

"What's that?" 

"Chicken herbal soup, master Long asked the manor chef to made this special tonic, I just deliver it for you" Yang Xi Ying smiles warmly.

Yang Xi Ying put down her tray when she opens the lid the fragrant hit her nose and it rises her appetite "Are you not eating with me?" she realizes there's only one bowl on the table.

"I dare not sharing Hei Shen young madam precious soup" Yang Xi Ying pretend to be scared.

"Haha~ so funny miss Yang, come on help me to finish this, my god this is a whole chicken" Lory was stupefied, she hopes Zhao Li Xin didn't expect her to finish the whole bowl, she is a glutton but not a pig.

Yang Xi Ying guffawed and she waved her hand "I already eat, this is specially made for you to restore your condition after being bullied all night by the great Lord" she teases Lory while grinned widely as a married of course she knew what happened, and she happy for Lory because Zhao Li Xin never changes regardless Lory real identity and secret.

Lory's face turns bright red, thankfully it was only Yang Xi Ying in her room because Ling Zi was kindly left when Yang Xi Ying comes "Shut up!" Lory pursed her lip angrily but it only make Yang Xi Ying laugh louder. 

"Where is Ming Yue Yin?" Lory asks while scooping the soup to the small bowl.

"With general Yuan" she replies casually.

"Ah, is about time" Lory smiles before she slurped her spoon.

"Lory do you know general Yuan is very famous on Zhuan Dong continent, you maybe didn't know this but that continent is the worst compare to other continents that we know of, the truth is that the Zhuang Dong continent is rich with gold mine, diamond mine, crystal, ruby and so much more but because of that place in never peaceful, all tribe is fighting to each other for the mine ownership not to mention the outsider who also came to take a piece of Zhuang Dong wealth, that place is chaos and lawless, it's amazing Yuan Shao could make it this far..." Yang Xi Ying let out a long sigh. 

Lory waiting for more info but Yang Xi Ying seems lament to herself "Annd... what general Yuan do?" Lory twirls her fingers as she make a gesture for Yang Xi Ying to continue the story.

"Oh yes, General Yuan has subdued twelve great tribes only in a year and he made them served him as their superior, you know everyone called him 'the King of the tribes' how amazing is that!" Yang Xi Ying hit lory arms excitedly.

"Ouch!" Lory whines, a simple hit from cultivator still hurt.

"Sory, I just got excited" she apologizes while rubbing Lory arms "If he truly becomes the King of tribes and takes over Zhuang dong continent, no one can stop him marry Yue Yin" she is very happy for Ming Yue Yin because Yang Xi Ying and Lory marry with the man they love she hope Ming Yue Yin could also marry the man that she loves but unlike them, Ming Yue Yin status is more tricky than them so Yang Xi Ying always worries for her best friend slash superior.

"I know he will not disappoint Yue Yin," Lory said confidently but honestly she also worry if he ever returns for Ming Yue Yin so sometimes she asked Zhao Li Xin about Yuan Shao's situation. if Yuan Shao dares to broke the brat heart she would use Xin Shen token for the first time to drag Yuan Shao to Liangzu palace so Ming Yue Yin can slap his face until she content, thankfully Yuan Shao is an honest and righteous man.

Lory finish her breakfast, she feel better after she has a meal but then she realizes the sun is high it seems they would come late to the banquet "I think we are going to be late"

Yang Xi Ying snort in disdained "Who cares, it's not like they invite us with kind intention anyway"

"That's right" Lory wipe her mouth and hands, she doesn't need to be punctual when the Sanguan family is obviously holding a grudge towards them.

[Girsha, are you coming or what?] 

Girsha flew from the window then transform to a white orb then penetrated to her chest [I will not miss it!] the bird sneer through their telepathic connection.

"Shall we?" Yang Xi Ying squints her eyes as anticipation flash in her eyes.

"Let's go!" Lory fixed her sash then smiles brightly.

At the main hall Lory and found everyone is very casual, none of them is overdressed or they wear normal robes like they used to except Ming Yue Yin, the tomboy Empress dress more feminine this time, although it still in red color but the white and silver lily flower embroidery on her sleeves make her look more delicate and girly.

Yang Xi Ying pulls Lory sleeve and smiles meaningfully, both of them know for whom she dresses for, certainly not for the Banquet but Ming Yue Yin hard work seem successful because Yuan Shao can't stop looking at her even when he talks with Li Mo Zhen her eyes darted on Ming Yue Yin from time to time.

The rest is dressing conveniently, Zhao Li Xin still wears his long dark robes with gold and black embroidery and cover his face with a gold mask, he sits lazily on his respective chair with an indifferent expression but his cold aura is lessened a lot after having his good time last night.

Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan also wear the same robe as they used to. Li Mo Zhen and Yang Xi Ying also dress moderately are not like they try to impress the Sanguan family however Lory thought they are dress quite...nice so it should be appropriate, right!

'Yeah, Right!'

"Are they haven't come yet?" Sanguan Liu Wei sit on the elder chair, he had step down from the patriarch chair five years ago and give the authority to his first Son.

"No, not yet" Sanguan Jin Sheng shakes his head, there's worry flash in his eyes. he had met with Dongcheng auction house manager about the old map and why is not put on the list before. The manager casually said it because the item came at the last minute so he had no time to inform them, Sanguan Jin Sheng was annoyed by the manager's explanation but he did not dare to reprimand the manager harshly because the man behind the Dongchen house is not someone he can trifle.

Once he knew is a map from the mythical emperor Lei Yu, this news distraught Sanguan Jin Sheng and Sanguan Liu Wen, there was a secret inside the Sanguan family that only share between one patriarch to his successor so no one other than the patriarch knows about this secret, not even their wives.

"We must take the map from Long Ming!" Sanguan Liu wen clenched his fist and his expression turned grim.

"I understand father, don't worry Long Ming might be big at Xing Fang continent but this is Gui Hong continent his power would not shake our hundreds of family foundation" Sanguan Jin Sheng is confident with his family power, even the weakest in his family is on heavenly King level at the profound stage while himself, his father and his Son Sanguan Wu Ci is at Sovereign level so why must they afraid for a mere visitor like Long Ming although he heard the man is rich but money is the only number in the eye of a cultivator at the end power is everything. 

Sanguan Jin Shen refused to believe that a mere Sect that established less than a decade could match hundreds of years the Sanguan family legacy.
