The Princess And The Lord

Lory felt she got enough information about the Saintess, at least for now, Lory then continue to look for more information about what happened in the world over the last seven years and also to find out where she and Zhao Li Xin are now.

It turned out that the place they were in was called Eagle Rock City which was quite far from Harland, it would take a two-day trip by car to the nearest airport to enter Harland but without money, an identity card to make a passport it would be impossible to go anywhere.

Lory realized they had a lot of things to prepare and it would require a lot of money which they didn't have.

So the main problem that needs to be fixed now is how to get money and the fastest way to raise money is to become a hunter. Lory then looked to see if there was a guild around here luckily she found one!

"The Beast Slayer Guild..." Lory never heard of the guild name before, maybe it's a new guild because many guilds were destroyed during the dark ages war and many hunters died as well.

Lory cleared her browser then saw Zhao Li Xin who was still meditating with his eyes closed, Lory lean her head on his fist while staring at her handsome husband she was suddenly reminded of the god statue she once saw in the museum when she was kid, she remembers an exquisite eastern god statue, every feature of his face was perfectly carved on his face be it lips nose even eyebrows, no matter from which side she looked at him it didn't diminish his perfect beauty.

Sometimes she still couldn't understand why this man fell in love with her and only her, is like he wear a blinder he never pays attention to other women's existence albeit is a good thing for her but still, Lory find it a bit weird even though Mong Ki and the others said that just how Zhao Li Xin was.

Zhao Li Xin felt a piercing gaze in his direction he then slowly opened his eyes then a pair of glittering purple eyes stared at him immediately the chill in his heart was swept away by a warm breeze.

[How do you feel?] Lory asks worriedly.

Ever since Zhao Li Xin lost more than half of her powers Lory couldn't stop feeling guilty that the reason Zhao Li Xin came to her world was mostly because of her.

Moreover, Lory knew how difficult it was for cultivators to increase their cultivation and how important that was that many people in the cultivator world didn't care if they have to abuse their bodies with pills and potions in order to increase their strength even Zhao Li Xin had forced himself to cultivate even though his body was tortured with a cold poison, therefore, Lory could only imagine how important this is for Zhao Li Xin.

On the other hand, Zhao Li Xin was actually unbothered by his own situation though he admitted that he was a bit upset after finding out he had lost most of his powers but if losing his powers was the price he had to pay to be with Lory then he had nothing to regret.

As a matter of fact, Zhao Li Xin felt that his situation was better than he thought because this is not a permanent situation cause when he was meditating he could feel pure energy similar to Qi floating around him like mist and surprisingly the energy was quite dense just like in the Hwang Wu continent therefore in just a short time Zhao Li Xin managed to fill his veins with Qi then he circulates the flow of the Qi in his body and slowly filled his dantian so it didn't take long for him to gain his old power perhaps sooner since he doesn't affect with cold potions that use to slow him down.

[I'm fine?] His thin lips curved into a dazzling smile the moment he saw the worry in Lory's eyes.

Lory didn't know if Zhao Li Xin was pretending to not worry her, even so, Lory determined no matter what Zhao Li Xin would do she will do anything to support her just like he did to her in the past.

[Okay, I got everything I need so let's get out of here!] Lory looked around him and saw more people coming.

[Should we pay before we go?] Zhao Li Xin thought since they were using the facilities of the place it was expected that they would pay something.

But Lory pursed her lips and said [Nah, it's fine this facility is provided for free...] Lory waved as she brushed it off like it was normal, inwardly, she didn't dare say that usually as a courtesy they should buy something from the shop. since they were allowed to use the facilities of the place for free, unfortunately, they had no money at all.

Coincidentally, a group of students came in and asked the shopkeeper something as a result of which the shopkeeper's attention was immediately diverted to the group of students, seeing the opportunity Lory grabbed Zhao Li Xin's hand and they both slipped away easily from the front door.

Once they got outside Lory began her search for the location of the Beast Slayer guild as it was clear they had an urgent need to fulfilled, which is MONEY!

Lory who had never been good at direction got lost in the new city.

Once she faced a three-way intersection, Lory blow her cheeks tiredly, normally in this situation Girsha would have helped her or given her some insight into where she should go but now without that old bird Lory was completely lost. and Zhao Li Xin who just came to this world also couldn't help her, it was then that Lory realized how much she depended on Girsha all this time.

Lory took a deep breath, It wasn't even a day but he already missed that annoying old bird and at the same time made Lory even more determined to free Girsha from that place.

"Let's go over here!" Lory took Zhao Li Xin's hand to an alley while looking for street signs for directions, without the knowledge of Lory and Zhao Li Xin a pair of eyes had been watching them intensely then a sly grin spread across the young man with spiky yellow hair face then he nudged one of his friend's hand. their arms and they whispered to each other later they both smirked while glancing at Lory and Zhao Li Xin.

They looked left and right to make sure no one was watching them, nor the CCTV cameras that could catch them, after making sure they were safe they jogged towards where Zhao Li Xin and Lory go while the rest of their friends joined them behind.

Soon the gang of thugs followed Lory and Zhao Li Xin like a beast stalking their prey.

Lory scratch her head with an uncertain expression and then walked into a small alley with Zhao Li Xin. At the distance, the thugs were overjoyed by their stupidity for voluntarily entering a remote area that had no security camera at all.

The yellow hair man shouted abruptly "Are you guys lost"

Lory and Zhao Li Xin halted their pace and then turned around soon after they were greeted by a bunch of thugs with a strange emo-punk style, but at the same time, the thugs were stunned by Lory's appearance, because Lory wearing a hoodie they couldn't see her face moreover from afar so they didn't expect they will meet a very beautiful woman that even more beautiful than any celebrity they have seen before.

Lory's purple eyes, sparkled like a precious jewel under the sunlight as she stared fixedly at the thugs without a hint of fear.

The thugs gasped when they saw the color of Lory's eyes but soon realized that it must be just a mere soft lens because who doesn't know that purple eyes are only owned by Lucient descendants and the only woman who has those eyes has long died, therefore they believe Lory is just one of the fans of the Lucient family who likes to imitate their features whether it's their eyes, hair or clothes, these type of fans didn't care even though it has been strictly forbidden to mimic the lucient family features in various places.

Lory doesn't need to guess what this bunch of idiots want, feeling robbed in a small alley reminds her of similar incidents that often happened when he just left cestine palace with Lucas and others therefore Lory now feels really at home.

"Who are you?" Lory asks innocently.

"We are only local residents who care" replied the man with yellow hair.

Her green-haired, emo friend with her bangs covering half her eyes grinned slyly "Yeah, we were just trying to help"

"Oh you guys are so kind" Lory smiled sarcastically but this bunch of idiots didn't seem to notice.

"Yes, this place is dangerous for a beautiful woman like you to roam around," said the red-haired man with a punk gothic spike collar.

Yellow, green, red...

Are traffic light colors trending now? Lory's eyes twitched, she could never understand fashion either then or now.

[Lory, are they trying to rob us?] Zhao Li Xin was surprised and amazed to be robbed for the first time in a very very long time.

A sudden gust of wind suddenly took off Zhao Li Xin's head scarf, Zhao Li Xin's black hair fluttered to reveal her delicate face with a sharp nose, a pair of dark eyes like the bottomless abyss, and thin red lips that stood out too much against his fair skin, the man's beauty was utterly captivating, especially with a mysterious aura that seems drawn them.

The bunch of idiots seemed completely seduced by Zhao Li Xin's mesmerizing beauty

The alarm in Lory's head rings she immediately realized what was happening thus she clapped her hands loudly which startled the stupid thugs.

Lory's gaze turned icy "Are you guys going to help us?"

They were taken aback and then realized what they were here for, suddenly the big man with purple mohawk hair suddenly speak in a threatening tone "If you want us to help you have to pay us!"

Lory's brows arch in confusion it seems it's not a traffic light color but rainbow colors.

Zhao Li Xin frowned, even though he didn't understand what they were talking about but he understand enough that these idiots were threatening his wife. Zhao Li Xin's face darkened, even without his usual power he still had his martial arts ability therefore it should not be difficult to teach these idiots a lesson.

Lory  furtively tugged Zhao Li Xin's hand then signal him with a glance to be patient, Lory  then turned her gaze  back to the stupid colorful thugs with a scared face

"But what should I do? I don't...I don't have no money at all" Lory clasped her hands pretending to be scared.

The yellow hair sizes Lory from top to bottom, only now he realized that the clothes Lory was wearing were cheap clothes and seemed to be worn out it dawned on him that she might say the truth.

Refusing to leave empty-handed, the yellow-haired man glanced at Zhao Li Xin and his face suddenly turned red like a boiling crab.

"Then.. then, leave everything you have and… leave him here!" He pointed at Zhao Li Xin.

Zhao Li Xin tilted his head as he wondered what this idiot yellow hair wanted.

A wave of rage raised inside her, she can't believe how outrageous this stupid gank could be, Lory's lips curved into a sinister smile as she glare at the yellow hair man while cracking her knuckles her eyes glinted dangerously "Is that so..."
