Fu Yun restaurant has gain popularity at the short time, the great food and nice ambiance easily attract peoples not to mention the building is well known as one of the most valuable property who is belong to the Xie family so for anyone who wants to curry favor of the Xie family would come to this place who knows If they would stumble with the Xie young master himself.

Late at night, Fu Yun restaurant was still packed with customers, the sounds of people talking and laughing fill the room while the servant busy running around to accept the order and served the food. Zhao Li Xin enter the restaurant with a frown, he hated noise but he knew this is what happens when you live above the restaurant. The Hei Shen members knew their Lord mood is not good but they are in incognito so what else they can do.

Mong ki bravely approach his Lord and whisper "Young Madam is waiting upstairs, milord"

When he heard Lory is waiting for him his expression become soften and his mood lift slightly, he hummed and take a long stride to the stairs, the other members stare at Mong Ki with probing look, they want to know how to coaxed the 'Demon Lord'

Mong ki suddenly has an urge to be benevolence and so he said "When the Lord is in bad mood, bring up young madam name if it does not work we plead the young madam to coaxed our Lord, it's never failed" he gives his sect Brother reassurance looks.

And the whole Hei Shen member was making 'O' expression, they feel they just got a precious hidden technique to save their life.

Zhao Li Xin who didn't know and didn't care what his subordinated talk about can't wait to meet his princess, when he opened the door the beautiful girl is laying on the couch, she read lazily with her head leaning on her fist. The window next to her left open and the night breeze blow her hair gently. The pale moonlight illuminated her hair make the bluish color more apparent, her long eyelashes fluttered as she realizes someone enters her room, she lifts her head, the light from the candle make her skin more flawless just like snow.

Her big purple eyes blink and turn to crescent when she smiles "What are you doing there?" her voice is gentle and sweet make his heart thump, he wonders when he stops acting like a fool in front of his princess, sometimes he thought he forgot to breath when she smiles at him.

Zhao Li Xin smiles as his dark eyes stare deeply on her. Lory blush she unconsciously averts her gaze is like a sneak attack she can't handle it.

Zhao Li Xin takes a seat behind her, he make her lean on her chest "What are you reading?" he rests his chin on the top of Lory's head.

"Myths and folklore about the beast who used to live here" Lory show him the painting of the beast from the book "The beast looks scary isn't it" she shows him a painting of beast who looks like a wolf with long fang and dark fur, in the picture the wolf was shredding human and eating their head in a menacing way.

"Hum, it does look scary" he perfunctorily said as he took the book from her "If the princess scared, this Lord will kindly accompany your highness when you are sleeping" he whispered on her ears with a low husky voice, he said in an ambiguous way and Lory felt someone hit her heart with an arrow. 

"Shut up!" she hushes him, since they sleep together Zhao Li Xin seems to have his breakthrough on flirting, and just like his cultivation his flirting breakthrough also faster than normal people would.

He chuckles lightly then he put his arms around her waist and pulls her closer "As you wish…" he still not stop teasing her.

She elbows his stomach lightly "Annoying!" Lory stifles in annoyance.

His laughter becomes louder, the coldness who seems permanent on his face dissipated without a trace in front of Lory. at times like this even if the Hei Shen was under attack no one dares to bother their Lord. 

Lory remember she got something serious to talk about she raised her back and turn around to face him "Li Xin about that creature who reside inside the forbidden library, Girhsa though it might be the same kind like him"

"Same Kind?" Zhao Li Xin tilts his head slightly.

"Yes, the first kind" Lory nods then she continues "The first Kind is the first creature that the God created before human, legend said the first created with God's blood that's why they are strong but they also have a volatile temperament and easily provoke. the story said the first kind is hostile between each other and because of their violent and territorial nature they fight each other even more than humans that's why their kind eventually extinct, Girsha and Nazareth are the last of them…as far as we know" she cannot be sure.

"Is Girsha sure about it" he never met a creature like this before so he can't comprehend their strength.

"Yes" Lory firmly nod "Mo Ning Yuan seems to know about this creature and my guest is, she wants to used parasite Demon to control it"

"Is that so" Zhao Li Xin mutter "You think she able to do that?"

Lory sigh "I,m not sure…the parasite belong to the Demon and the only demon who can control it, if the demon follows Mo Ning yuan order it because the demon allowed her to do so, in the end, it was Demon who control everything, I'm worried if the parasite Demon takes over the first kind it will not Mo Ning Yuan who control it but it would be the Demon himself" this is what anxious her the most, what is Lazarus want? Is he want to resurrect the next Nazareth?

"You worry it would be Lazarus, the Demon that haunts you?" Zhao Li Xin's face turn darken as he thought about the danger that lurks around her.

"Yes, the truth is there is not much demon in the world, Lazarus is the only Demon I know" and she hopes it keeps that way for the eternity. Lory takes a deep breath she immersed in her own thought then she lifts her head and said: "You think Mo Ning Yuan able to get a hold on the key?"

"Well, there is a possibility that Mo Ning Yuan killed Elder Xie," said Zhao Li Xin.

Lory was stunned "Really, why?" she gasped.

"My guess is, he had outlived his usefulness" Zhao Li Xin casually shrug. He rose from the seat he puss the book on the round table to the side then he takes out a jar of wine and winecup from his spatial ring "From what Mo Ning Yuan told me, I think the key is not one but four and it's given to the four families" he pours himself a cup of wine, he took the wine cup then he returns to the couch "You read yourself that the four families subdue the beast but turns out the Beast is still alive inside the forbidden library so that means they've not killed the beast but sealed it instead" then he takes a sip slowly.

"That…make sense, no wonder Mo Ning yuan knew about the beast, perhaps she heard it from her family and so is about the key if the key shared between the four families then she already has one from her own family" Lory bites her lower lips as she becomes worried.

"And another one from elder Xie, that's the only reason why she killed the old man, to cover her tracks" he smirked "When the Xie family knew the key is gone no one would know who took it even if they figure it out it was elder Xie doing what can't they do when the man himself disappeared"

"She used the old man as a furnace to increased her cultivation then make him betray his family and after he has no use anymore she killed him….that's cruel" Lory can't believe someone so young can be so vicious.

"Is not so hard to believe, woman cultivator, tend to be cold and merciless, you must be careful when you meet one" he raised his brows as he warned her seriously.

"Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Yin is nice" Lory pursed her lips.

"There always be an exception but you can't let your guards down" he patted her head gently "she already has two key then she need two more keys to released the beast" 

"Nan and Chen family will be the next," Lory said.

"She already got halfway with the Chen there's only Nan family key left" he rests his head on the couch seemingly indifferent.

Lory frown confusedly "Should we stop her? we can't let her get all the keys" 

He shifts his glance on lory with half doze eyes he smiles deviously "Why not? let her gather all the keys and when she has done we took the key from her, simple right..." he pinches Lory chin softly "Let her do the hard job"

Lory dumbfounded, so this is how is Zhao Li Xin domineering the world even though he always been so lazy? Lory sigh heavily she thought she is quite smart but compare to him she's still nothing, she really wants to introduce him with Fred. 

While Lory on a daze Zhao Li Xin suddenly holds her hand "Lory, the bed seems cold" he make seductive smiles as his finger grazes the back of her hand lightly but enough to electrify her skin.

"Milord, what are you propose?" she narrowed her eyes, she tries to remain composed.

Zhao Li Xin grin "Isn't that's ashamed"
