The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 168 - Monster



"Milord, Miss Luo heart race increasing" Jin Hao checks her wrist.

"As long is not dangerous, let it be…" Zhao Li Xin said with a low voice as his eyes remain on her face.

​​

meanwhile, inside the dream Lory try to hold her anger and nausea, is hard to maintain composure when weak heavily pregnant woman beaten to a pulp right in front of her face even though she knew it's just memory fragments but it doesn't make her feel better, suddenly she notices the old man family placard fall on the ground but the old man is too excited kicking the half death woman to realize it.

With the last strain of her strength she took the token and hide it under her sleeve, she knew she would not make it she used her strength to tell his husband what happened to her.

"Elders Quan, the woman is dead" one of the elders subordinated brace himself to talk.

The old man finally stops, the woman lay on the ground covered with blood, her face was beaten beyond recognition and her body….not even the cruelest subordinated who was there dare to look at her, it was too inhuman.

"You know what to do…" the old man's hands were covered with blood as well but there's no remorse on his face only hatred, he spit on the woman's corpses before he left stomping his feet on the ground.

Lory never seen such cruelty, she feels chills down on her spine no wonder the cursed created only this level of cruelty could create such resentment.

The scene in front of her changed again this time she sees a man froze on his spot his eyes bulged then Lory hear a loud heart-wrenching scream, the man runs to his wife corpses he holds her while calling her name, his wife damaged corpses only deepen his sorrow, day after day he keeps holding his wife mourning her death, then something suddenly slips down from his wife sleeve.

His hand trembles, the green jade token looks familiar but he doesn't want to believe it although he knew his family hated her but he didn't want to believe the animal who slaughters his family and unborn child is from his family, no matter how much they hated her, she still pregnant with his child, this their owned family, their blood, it can't be...

Her hand rub the green token, tears fall on his face, all this time they send outsider to killed his wife he should have known how far they would do to make him returned, he is so foolish thinking if he has a child their hatred would be dissipated a little bit or at least they would reluctantly accept his wife no matter what they still his family, how stupid he is this is all because his soft heart, his family died because of him!

The man stifles then he laughs he gaze up to the sky and his laugh gets harder as he laughs while tears flow down his dreadful face, Lory watches him her heart beating faster she realizes that man is not the same man from that morning he has changed and he changed for the worst.

The man stops wailing and gradually his eyes become empty he put down his wife rotten body on the ground, slowly he walked towards the red plum tree, he hit the ground with his palm then a big hole appears from the ground, he staggering back to his wife corpses he carries her lifeless body then carefully he put her inside the hole, together with his unborn baby fetus into the hole, the mother and the baby buried in the same hole.

He stood there in front of his wife and child's tomb, he didn't cry anymore in fact there's no humanity left in his eyes just like a dead man. He walked in slow pace back to his house suddenly the fire lit up then he walks out calmly with a steady pace and white sword on his hand, his face filled with malicious intent like a devil crawl from the hell itself, they want him to come home so be it…he will come home and will make them wish he never come home.

He takes a long leap to the sky and disappeared in a dark night.

Lory brace herself after this the memory only get darker, she can feel the coldness in the air she takes one deep breath to calmed her nerves, she reminds himself Zhao Li Xin waiting for her and she make promised to return, this time she must fulfill her promised.

The scene changed again it make her slightly dizzy, Lory closes her eyes and shaking her head. When she opens her eyes she saw a man's corpse in front of her feet, she looks around and she notices the winding stairs and raw of lampion the blood flowing down from the stairs, this is like her dream only this time is more vivid.

And that eerie feeling return just like in the dream if is not worst because this time it feel very real, she climbs the stairs one by one, the blood becomes thicker and the corpses increasing all of them died violently, enough to make anyone hair behind their neck stand up.

Once again she reaches to the half wrecked front gate, Lory let out long heaved before she enters and just like she thought more corpses everywhere, the water inside the pond turn red and corpses floating everywhere and not just men but also women and young children, is like horror movie only a lot more worst because it's real.

Suddenly she heard screams from inside main building, Lory walk faster towards the building but before she arrived a black figure roll on the ground, Lory pace was halted, she looks down an she notice this is the same crazy old man who killed the poor lady before, Lory hated this old man very much so she doesn't pity him when he falls on the ground cover in blood she just wonder who cut his right arms.

Someone got out from the main building with white sword soaked with crimson blood his left hand carry a fresh cut limb, he smile gently at the old man on the ground "Uncle Quan, where would you go without your hand?" he asked calmly if only that man didn't hold a piece of hand and cover with blood Lory would think he genuinely cared for the old man.

The old man stares at him in horror "You….what have you done…?"

He smiles devilishly "Something I should do when my wife still alive…"

"What….what are you talking about?" he still refuses to admit what he had done.

He throws the green jade token to the old man's chest "You must be so…..excited killing my wife for not realizes you lost your identity token" he sound creepy because he talks with a friendly tone as if he talks with his old friend.

The old man body trembles 'He knows!' he cursed himself, his nephew although his stubborn but he is kind that's why he never retaliated even though he send a lot of people to kill him, he might feel guilty because of his daughter suicide but this time he pushes him too far, the man who stands in front of him is not his gentle nephew…..he is a demon!

"You know uncle your grandson is quite cute, he looks like your second son isn't it?" he said casually while throwing the piece of hand on the side as if he throwing a rock.

"What….what did you do to him" the old man clenched his fist his breathing becomes erratic. "That child….he is your nephew!"

"I know" he looks wronged by the old man's accusation, the old man heaved on relief but then his nephew make eerie smiles "That's why I killed him faster, he didn't even realize when I cut his head," he said proudly.

The old man's face become white as a sheet, he was so distraught his body become numb, meanwhile, the demon in front of him giggles with the same gentle face he used to make when he was young.

"Uncle isn't it great, he can be my son's playmate!" he said excitedly "It must be fun watching them playing together if he like the second cousin brother he must be smart, but wait…..he had no head…" he sounds disappointing.

The old man realizes his nephew has gone crazy and he is the one who make him crazy, the wholes clan dies because of him, because of his greed and anger, everyone dies because of him!

"Wei…..Wei Han, I'm sorry…."the old man said with low voice.

He suddenly froze, his gentle face suddenly changed, he shifts his gaze slowly toward the old man "Sorry for what…" his voice becomes hostile.

The old man gulped his saliva "I...I….." he stutters.

He walks toward the old man with slow pace his eyes filled with blood lust

"What are you sorry about?" he repeated the question as he stands in front of the old man, he used to look at the old man with respect and admiration although sometimes mix with disappointment but at least something reflect on his eyes but now he stared at him with empty cold eyes, he felt his nephew might not recognize him anymore.

The old man tongue-tied, his body drenched with blood and sweat "I….hurt….I hurt…your wife…" he painstakingly make his words.

"Hurt my wife…?" he stifles, he raised his feet then he stomps on the old man's stomach repeatedly while screaming at him "You hit her, you kick her over and over again until my unborn child pushes away from his mother stomach, you hurt her! BASTARD! You torture my wife and child, YOU MONSTER! MONSTER!"

The old man screams and begging him to stop but it's only increased his anger because he knew his wife must ask the same thing but this old man didn't stop so why should he, then he raised his white sword he begins to chop the old man in a rage.

Lory looks away, she can bear to see more, that man has drowned in madness but can you blame him after what happened to him can anyone blamed him?

Now she appreciated more of Zhao Li Xin's cruelty to his enemy, she understands why he's so stern and harsh to other people especially to anyone who would threaten her safety, Lory realizes she was like that village woman who falls in love with a powerful man.

Without power and protection, anyone can hurt her so they can hurt him if only that man had half Zhao Li Xin's volatile temperament he wouldn't end up in tragedy like this.
