The Princess And The Lord

'Fire Demon' was the proper name to describe Zhao Li Xin at that time, the ruthlessness he displayed and the power that no one had seen at that time, many people joined hands to stop Zhao Li Xin but none of them succeeded.

"Do you know what else that more surprising?" Lao Min Na's brows arched as she smiled faintly, "Do you know that two of Zhao Li Xin's favorite servants died at the hands of the four Palace King and the four Palace Kings died at the hands of Zhao Li Xin...isn't that shocking?" she glances at Lory playfully.

Lory's eyes went wide as his face turned white as a sheet, she couldn't believe it even more than Zhao Li Xin mindlessly killing all those innocent people, how could that be?

Lory knows how close their relationship is even though they like to argue and fight with each other but it comes from brotherhood and love so how can they end up killing each other?

"I don't believe you…" Lory said in a muffled voice.

Lao Min Na snorted "It's up to you to believe it or not I'm just telling what Lazarus said to me," Lao Min Na rolled her eyes he really doesn't care, whoever will destroy this world has nothing to do with her, her fate has set in stone after all so why bother.

"Nevertheless, more than people with weak hearts, what Lazarus likes most are men without hearts, and empty men… sound familiar to you? Zhao Li Xin is tailor-made for Lazarus's vessel." Lao Min Na glanced at Lory expectantly, she wanted to see how Lory received this news.

As expected, anger flared in her purple eyes, the surrounding wind around them suddenly became chaotic and a sharp wind whistled towards Lao Min Na like a sharp blade instantly a dark red barrier enveloped Lao Min Na and protected her.

Lory gasped "Cursed Blood!"

The surface of the transparent red sphere that protected Lao Min Na slowly rippled mimicking a water flow but the thick red color made it more like blood instead, Lao Min Na moved her fingers as if she was dancing and the blood poured down then morphed into thousands red thorns that run towards Lory.

Lory swiftly took a step back and then created a high ice wall in front of him but maybe because Lao Min Na's strength was so strong the ice wall was destroyed along with Lao Min Na's blood thorns.

"So that's the gift he has given to you" Lory's expression darkened.

Lao Min Na smiled proudly "Do you like it, it's pretty great right?!"

One should know how someone receives the Gift of cursed blood from the demon, one has to eat hundreds of human hearts not only it will give demonic power beyond human comprehension it also gives one's body fast healing power and also eternal youthful but the side effects the person who possessed this power can't stop eats the human heart otherwise that person will lose their beauty and then her sanity.

But because the original demon that can give this power doesn't exist anymore in lory's world so only learned about it through the old book she found in the cestine royal palace library, therefore Lory didn't think she would find anyone who has the power of cursed blood in this world.

"You can't be saved anymore" Lory sighed weakly.

"I never asked" Lao Min Na curtly replied.

"I should've known" the wings behind Lory expanded she jumped high into the air then waved her hand then dozens of giant icicles fell from the sky however Lao Min Na took a high leap into the air meanwhile the icicles managed to damage the edge of the tower causing a rumbling sound of bricks collapses.

Lao Min Na raised her hand and her blood turned into thousands of insects that swarmed and rushed towards Lory, seeing Lory flapping her wings forming a whirlwind that swept the bugs away.

This time the two of them drew their swords and attacked each other producing the sound of metal colliding and echoing in the air creating a violent gust of wind. Lao Min Na and Lory attack each other relentlessly and they managed to inflict wounds on each other but because Lao Min Na's body is able to heal quickly and Lory has healing power, therefore, their wounds didn't hinder them too much instead it makes them fight faster and fiercer eventually their power crash at each other and the violent impact push bot them away to the ground.

As they pushed towards the ground, their eyes locked on each other, the wound on Lao Min Na slowly closed while Lory's wound disappeared as soon as she sighed.

"You're pretty good" Lao Min Na smirked.

Lory's brows rose as she replied nonchalantly, "You're not that bad either."

They both knew the fight was far from over as this was just the beginning. All of a sudden they were surprised by a loud explosion. Immediately Lory jerked her head at where the sounds were, then her forehead creased tightly because she knew it was most likely coming from the fight between  Zhao Li Xin and Wei Zu Tian.

Worry?" Lao Min Na suddenly asked.

Lory only glanced at Lao Min Na for a moment before his gaze left again.

"After so long you've known him, I don't understand why you still doubt his strength? You know Wei Zu Tian is no match for him". Lao Min Na looked at Lory with a confused look. She didn't understand why Lory thought she needed to worry about the man who had become the strongest man in the world.

Lory's gaze returned to Lao Min Na as her eyes assessed Lao Min Na's face carefully. "Since you know Wei Zu Tian is not Zhao Li Xin matched, why are you letting him fight Zhao Li Xin, what is your purpose?"

"You really want to know," Lao Ming Na smiled sarcastically.

"You are right, it's necessary". In a blink of an eye, Lory lunged at Lao Min Na while drawing her sword. Lao Min Na swiftly blocked Lory's attack with her sword and soon the sound of metal clashing rang in the air for a long time.

The fight is fierce again. Lory thinks of finishing off Lao Min Na as soon as possible before she plans another heinous thing. Lory had lost her sympathy for Lao Min Na ever since finding out she received the gift of cursed blood from Lazarus.

[Lory would be very dangerous to do this with your incomplete powers] Girsha advised Lory

[It's okay, as long as I don't use it for too long] Lory's eyes brimmed with unwavering determination.

Lory created a barrier of Lucients around him first, then she closed her eyes in full concentration. Soon the wind around them started to howl, then, followed by dark gray clouds that rumbled as if to announce the horrors that would come soon after, lightning started flashing and striking each other, causing echoes that shocked all who heard,

The Hybrid Beast roars into the sky as they can feel Lucient power, and the critters scatter frantically because their instinct told them they were threatened.

Meanwhile, the people left in confusion. They stopped their fight and looked up at the sky with puzzled looks.

"Is a storm coming?" Guan Men Niang, who was hiding on the roof with Jin Hua protected by a protective talisman, looked up at the sky with a frightened and confused face.

Jin Hua, who was beside her, was also surprised by the sudden change in weather.

She immediately remembered Jin Kai but there was something different about this. The power felt much bigger, stronger and most of all it felt more...divine.
