Sanguan Wu Ci visit Tie Shan Manor to solve Lao Min Na matters, he came with six powerful cultivators with him two of them are the Sovereign cultivator at the beginner stage after he faces Zhao Li Xin at Tin Cu island he didn't dare to underestimate Zhao Li Xin and his people for that he came fully prepare for the worst outcome

When Sanguan Wu Ci arrived at the main hall he surprised how rigid the room décor is, there's not much painting but if there is only a mountain landscape even though is beautiful but is too plain and too stiffed it make the room less vibrant and cold. There not much decoration anywhere in this place, but it does suit Long Ming cold temperament however it doesn't suit that woman – is she truly happy living with this man?

​​

"First young Master Sanguan, what an honor to have you here" Bei Li Yan cupped his fist and smile kindly.

Behind him Zhao Li Xin walks in wearing his usual black robes and gold mask but for today he wears a half mask that shows his mouth and chin and behind him, the mong brother and Jin Hao follow, Zhao Li Xin only give a slight nod to Sanguan Wu Ci then he takes a seat on the respective chair, he leans his back on his chair and crosses her legs lazily, his behavior is considered to be rude and improper but who dare to reprimand him, this is his home.

Sanguan Wu ci swallows his irritation, he normally greets with enthusiast and treats respectfully however at Tie Shan manor no one cares about him they just treat him with minimum courtesy no one try harder to please him, it's a mind bogle experience however he came here under his father order that's why he must curb his arrogance "Good evening, Master Long Ming, Master Jin, master Bei" he bows his head slightly.

"Please have a seat" Bei Li Yan make a polite gesture.

Sanguan Wu Ci takes a seat and his six subordinate stands behind his chair remain vigilant at all times, they knew everyone in this place is not a weak cultivator. 

Then a few male servants enter the room, one by one they put the wine cup and the wine flask on the small table next to their chair then slowly they pour the wine flask on the small porcelain cup, no one speaks only the sound of water pouring was heard. After the male servant finishes his service he bends his waist deeply to Zhao Li Xin before he left the room.

Zhao Li Xin takes a sip of wine slowly, without hurry he put down the cup on the table then clasped his hand on his stomach then he look at Sanguan Wu Ci "Where's that woman head?" he asked casually just like asking about the weather.

Sanguan Wu Ci expression change slightly but he quickly regains his composure "That's why I'm here, there something I want to tell you, we can't fulfill your request" he puffs his chest he braces himself for Zhao Li Xin outburst but the man himself expression remains placid there's not even a slight fluctuation in his eyes.

"Oh," Zhao Li Xin response briefly. He took another sip of wine then he fiddles the winecup with an indifferent look "So why you here?" he sounds annoyed because of wasting his time.

Sanguan Wu Ci tamped down his anger "Lao Min Na is an honored guest of my family and queen dowager also value her a lot, we can't kill her just because you tell us so, you might not notice but we are not working for you" Sanguan Wu Ci show raised his chin arrogantly, the truth is there is another reason why the sanguan family reluctantly to kill Lao Min Na but he can't say that in front of Zhao Li Xin.

"I know – if you work for me I will just give you a day to finish the job" Zhao Li Xin stifle. He takes a deep breath and says: "It seems our deal is off, you can go now Master Sanguan" he drives out Sanguan Wu Ci without a second thought it clear as day that Zhao Li Xin didn't take Sanguan Wu Ci seriously.

Sanguan Wu Ci feel absolutely offended and so his people behind him, normally people would treat them with utter respect that not even dare to talk back even the Prince and princess choose their words carefully in front of Sanguan Wu Ci but Zhao Li Xin is not like them, not only he is rude he also belittle them, they feel Long Ming is too arrogant.

"Are you sure, we can make another arrangement – I think you also want to solve this matter peacefully is it not?" he peers at Zhao Li Xin reaction after he bluntly threat Zhao Li Xin

Zhao Li Xin tilted his head and mutter to himself "Am I?" he sneers coldly "What I want is simple, you want the map, give me that woman head" he opened his arms and smirk.

"YOU!" one of Sanguan Wu Ci subordinated can't hold his anger he wants to berate Zhao Li Xin right on his face but Sanguan Wu Ci raised his hand to stop his subordinate.

"Are you sure there is no other way?" he squints his eyes dangerously.

Zhao Li Xin shrug "I want her head, how hard it is for you to understand?" Zhao Li Xin rolls his eyes tiredly.

Sanguan Wu Ci faked his smile "Don't blame me for not give you a chance" 

"Sure…" he response perfunctorily.

Sanguan Wu Ci gnashes his teeth, he raises from his seat and flicks his robes before he left however he suddenly stop and turn around, he looks at Zhao Li Xin for a second then ask "How is your wife?"

Zhao Li Xin frown for the first time since they talking "Fine…." He answers briefly.

He paused for a moment the continue "I heard your wife hurt a lot since she with you…." he cynically said.

Zhao Li Xin's expression got darken, his upper body leans forward in motion "Leave while you still can…." The air in the room suddenly become heavy and a cold waved embalmed them as the hair rose in the back of their neck, this overwhelming feeling infuriated Sanguan Wu Ci at the same time embarrassed him, he feel ashamed for being afraid of Zhao Li Xin, maybe he should take Lao Min Na offer after all.

Sanguan Wu Ci snort in disdained then turn around and left with all his men. Zhao Li Xin heaved and look up to the ceiling as he struggles to control the rage of anger inside him.

"The sovereign cultivator he brought – I saw a swelling vein on their neck and their eyes is slightly red?" Jin Hao rubbing his lips while pondering.

Bei Li Yan deliberately shifts the conversation to ease Zhao Li Xin's anger "What do you mean?"

"I think their breakthrough is boost by a pill and the breakthrough also happen recently" Jin Hao eyebrow furrow.

"Pill, is it because Lao Min Na?" Bei Li Yan stunned "Is that the reason why the sanguan family dares to threaten us?"

"Among other reason – I guess so" Jin Hai give half-shrug.

Bei Li Yan snicker "A pill for a breakthrough…what a stupid decision" he mocked the Sanguan family.

"No one knows using pills to raised your cultivation is like building a castle from the sand, it quick and easy but it also fragile and make their foundation unstable, it will be sooner before they hit a bottleneck in their cultivation though" Jin Hao sigh but he not feel sorry for them, people who used pills to build their cultivation is impatient and a lazy person so why he feel sorry for them

"If only they knew what we knew…." Bei Li Yan smiles flirtatiously while shifting his glance at Zhao Li Xin meaningfully.

The reason Hei Shen member is very strong that because Zhao Li Xin assistance, just like people know an array master is very – very rare and the talented one is even rarer and Zhao Li Xin is the talented Array master everything he knows about array he learns on his owned using the knowledged inside the Underground palace, normally people cannot do that they still need guidance but Zhao Li Xin turns out to be a genius not only he thought himself he even able to create a new type array that never exists in any book before, one of his creation is created 'Qi Gathering formation'

This array function is to accumulate the Qi around them inside the array and it make people who cultivate inside the array could easily absorb the Qi just faster and in large quantity it almost like when someone meditated inside the mystique realm although is not as effective as the mystique realm but it still gives a better boost than pills and without a side effect. 

That's why people inside the Hei Shen sect is very strong because Zhao Li Xin created one room with Qi gathering formation in it to help Hei Shen member to cultivate, still talent in one person give different progress. However even for the mediocre one if they cultivate inside this array their progress still double compare to normal people who cultivate outside the array.

Zhao Li Xin only gives this knowledge to the king Palace and three other people outside the Hei Shen which is Ming Yue Yin, Yang Xi Ying, and Li Mo Zhen, and that because of their close relationship with Lory, he never teaches this method to his own master Tian Men Ji because his close relationship with Lu Yao and Tang Mei Yi, he knew if he teaches Tian Men Ji that old man would teach his 'crush' and Zhao Li Xin didn't want that.

"Do you think Lao Min Na returns to sanguan manor?" Bei Li Yan asks.

"I believe so, she might use this pill as leverage," Jin Hao thought is very possible, every cultivator greed for power more than wealth, no one could refuse the temptation a shortcut to raised one cultivation.

"Milord, should I check the Sanguan Manor?" said Mong Ki.

Zhao Li Xin looks calmer now, he tapped his finger on the armrest for a few seconds later he looks at his subordinate "Just see how many people turn to Sovereign level this few days. Don't get close to Lao Min Na, we still not know what that creature inside her could do not even Lory knew how strong that Demon is – and all of you should start to cultivate from tomorrow, I'll set the array and all of you must work hard from now on"

"Yes, milord!"
