The Princess And The Lord

Jin Gu might never understand but Jin Kai never had fatherly love for him in fact, Jin Hao and Jin Hua also didn't have that kind of feeling towards their real father, and for once unbeknownst to them, they actually had something in common.

It happened because Jin Gu had too many children to raise and they came from different women and every woman fought for her father so one can imagine the relationship between siblings would not be good, Jin Hao and Jin Hua were the only exceptions.

Jin Gu treats women like collectibles, if he likes them he will treat them well but if he gets bored he leaves them and moves in with interesting new ones, he also treats his sons and daughters like chess pieces or investments that he can use in the future for to his own advantage that he inevitably does not have a deep relationship with his children which he never realized because everything he cared about had to be left for his children to control and obey.

Unfortunately, Jin Gu failed to realize the matter of his actions, he was too arrogant to realize that there was no wife who did not have deep feelings for him and they only wanted to use them to gain a foothold in their clan and sensitive children. knew that their father was only kind to them when they followed his orders or when they proved useful, therefore there was no such thing as unconditional love between parent and child in the Jin family. So it's no wonder the child will take revenge when they have a chance like Jin Kai.

  Jin Kai looked at his father indifferently, there were times when he desperately wanted to be recognized by this man not because he loved or respected him but he was afraid that he would be abandoned like his other children who could not live up to his expectations.

Luckily his mother was smart enough to use her female charm to seduce Jin Gu and use him to her advantage, his father had many flaws still his biggest weakness was women, therefore his mother tried very hard to maintain Jin Gu's affection she even went to the famous brothels for meeting the number one courtesan and from her she learns a lot of tricks and tips how to satisfied men body and ego.

It is disgraceful for an aristocratic woman to seek advice from a courtesan but Jin Kai's mother, Zhuang Wei Wei doesn't care, she is an ambitious woman and she will get whatever she wants at any cost including taking advantage of her own child.

Jin Kai was disgusted by his mother for a long time and he was jealous of Jin Hao who was born from Zhuang Yao Xi, his mother's older sister, he thought if he was born by Zhuang Yao Xi would he grew up like Jin Hao and if Jin Hao was born by his mother would he grow up like him ?

Jin Kai knows knows this was a ridiculous thought, stupid and useles even but sometime he just can't help it.

"How far his progress?" Jin Kai turns his head and Elder Zheng.

The old man's face was beaming with excitement as if he couldn't wait to talk about it then he stroked his beard and replied easily "The progress is quite good, the injection worked" he smiled evilly "Miss Lao Min Na's solution is good, if we can't force them to drink Devil's blood or swallow it as a pill, we can inject it into their bloodstreams and it will be just as effective if not more." he smirks.

"So the syringe method is useful?" Jin Kai frowned, the first time he heard about the tool called syringe he was doubtful but he followed Lao Min Na's advice anyway, and turn out it worked out better than he expected later on he didn't have to trick or force anyone to consume demon blood orally again he could just inject them.

"Oh very useful, it's a shame we didn't know about this tool for a long time" Elder Zheng replied while muttering annoyed, feeling as an alchemist close to the scope of science he considers himself as genius scientist therefore he felt a pity he never thought to make a tool like this, one can imagine what could he do if he had a tool like this since the beginning.

"How long will it take for him to turn into a Little Demon?" his voice was calm and steady as if it wasn't his real father he wanted to turn into a monster.

"Sometimes it will take some time but it won't be too long, his emotions are already unstable as long as he follows the final ritual he will become a Little Devil in no time," Elder Zheng's eyes lit up he had a satisfied expression. . looks like he can't wait to see it happen.

"Why…." a low voice came from Jin Gu, his face was deathly pale and shrouded in hatred and heartbreak "Why did you do this to me, what... what have I done wrong?"

Jin Kai's eyes widened and he suddenly chuckled, then Jin Kai looked at him with an expressionless face "For you to ask me that question makes me know how far you are from the reality around you, do you still think that I love you as a father, you think I care no one actually loves you, not me, not Jin Hao, Jin Hua or your other children, just like you see us as a tool to gain profit, we also see you the same and all the women you keep in your harem... do you think they care about you, do you really think they really love you, please tell me you are not that stupid?" Jin Kai said in a pitiful tone, but indeed right now he felt a little sorry for this stupid man who thought the world revolved around him, how pathetic this man could be.

Jin Gu's eyes were flooded with tears, he didn't understand where this deep hatred came from, he never treated Jin Kai badly, he even sacrificed Jin Hao for him but why… why did he hate him so much? Maybe if Jin Hao or even Jin Hua did this to him, he would be felt so betrayed.

Jin Kai didn't bother explaining knowing for certain that Jin Gu would never understand how much he hated being born as a 'Jin' how much he hated to had a disgraceful mother like Zhuang Wei Wei that he hated his parents who made him live this life.

Elder Zheng watched the father and son then he grew bored he was not interested in hearing other people's family matters as he thought it was a waste of time, therefore, he rather excused himself "First Master, it seems you will be him for a while, I have a matter that needs my assistance so farewell"

Jin Kai knew this crazy old man had no other interests other than carried out experiments and gained more knowledge by the way he shared similarities with Jin Hao but the difference was that Jin Hao still had a bottom line that he didn't want to cross was different which is his conscience as a human being but it wasn't the same with Elder Zheng, in fact, the real reason Elder Zheng supported Jin Kai is because Jin Kai shared the foreign knowledge he got from Lao Min Na and Jin Kai let him do any kind of experiment on whoever or whatever he wanted without any restrictions.

"Do what you need to do, Elder Zheng, oh, by the way, Fifth Elder agreed to participate in our experiment and so did his family" Jin Kai smiled mischievously.

"Is that so!" Elder Zheng was so excited that he subconsciously raised his voice a second later he realized his overreaction then he cleared his throat and spoke more calmly "I will arrange the preparations then.." he clasped his hands behind his back and left happily his steps almost looked like it bounces.

Jin Kai watched Elder Zheng until he closed the steel door behind them then he heard Jing Gu's panting voice "Why did you…do…this? You can hurt me but why do you hurt other people too… why, what… made you… do this, no matter how much you hate me… and this place… this is your birthplace?" he asked very confused.

Jin Kai glanced at Jing Gu slightly and the corners of his mouth curled into a wry smile, "Hate? I don't hate this place, you misunderstood me Father then again it was expected from you…" Jin Kai spoke sarcastically, he stifles a chuckle while casually fixed his long and wide sleeves then he summons a small stool from his spatial ring and sat majestically facing his kneeling and bound Father. 

"Believe it or not I care about this clan… for some reason though" Jin Kai turned his gaze to the wall, for a moment he stared for a long time as if he was deep in thought.

Jin Gu didn't understand what Jin Kai was talking about and the intense silence lasted for a few seconds until Jin Kai continued again "What I've been doing here is to ensure our survival in this world, our continued existence in this world cause when the world becomes dark and the sea is filled with blood nothing will be left, nothing at all but us… and our clan will be the only thing remain in this world…"

He looked at his Son with growing fear, "What... what are you talking about, son?"

He looked at his father stonily, "The war will come for all of us father, and nothing we can do to win it....hence, it will be our end"
