The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 238 - The Holy Lady



The mountain is cover with white rug, the snow slowly fall from the sky and the fog cover the mountain with thin smoke high on the sky a giant goshawk flapped his wings and the wind graze the bird wide wings on the back of the giant bird old man with green robes sit firmly than gradually the white cloud that covers the sky slowly subside and the white tower appeared majestically right at the peak of the mountain.

The goshawk dived slowly than smoothly landed on the stone floor right in front of the entrance and the guard keeper immediately open the massive black wooden gate with giant sea dragon carved on it and the sound of metal shifting clearly heard when the gate is open a woman with soft blue dressed greet him gracefully. ​​

"The Holy Lady has waiting Elder Second Elder Lu," said the lady with gentle smiles.

"Thank you!" Elder Lu nods his head politely.

They walk across the hall with high ceiling painted with colorful koi fish and beautiful pink lotus flower and the floor is cover with white marble floor and the wall is carved with the mountain scenery, Lu Zhai Quan heart raised a little bit the grandeur of this place make Lu Clan seems small.

This place is called the Sacred Mountain peak the location is far from Lu clan territory and can only be reached by flying divined beast level and above, not like other Sect or clan the people in this place never involved themselves with other people matter not because they like living in peace but because they feel they're above them so get involved with them only diminished their position but today Lu Zhai Quan offering something that hard to refuse.

Finally, they reach the white door with two women guarding it, when they see the lady and Lu Zhai Quan they nod there heads and open the door for them, they seem had been waiting for him.

Inside a woman with long wide hanfu stand near a small round pool with four pillar around the pool withstand the high ceiling, the room is big as a ballroom without anything inside it only a small round stone table and two stool near it, the woman feeding the fish from silver bowl, her hand is pale and dainty, her face is small and her skin smooth like jade without any blemished and her lips red as rose, with slanted eyes and long thin eyebrows she looks like beautiful but scary at the same time.

The lady bow respectfully at her and she gives the silver bowl to the lady then he shifts her gaze to Lu Zhai Quan, her cold gaze make him feel gulp unconsciously.

"Holy Lady" Lu Zhai Quan cupped his fist and bow courteously.

The holy Lady name is Nan Yu Wei she only sixteen years old but already reach emperor level at transition stage this is something that never happens before for five hundred years her father is the leader of the Sacred Peak Mountain with her talent she easily become the second most powerful person in here and awarded the title of 'Holy lady of sacred peak'

"Master Lu let's not beat around the bush, tell me what you want," she said calmly but there's a hint of mockery in her tone.

If this other people Lu Zhai Quan would be furious but because this is the holy Lady he can only maintain his indifferent face "We here to seek for your assistance, Hei Shen has gone too far they want to stick there claws to my clan please grace us with your assistance"

Nan Yu Wei giggles softly like an innocent young girl "Gone too far, is it because you're stupid daughter Lu Yao killed Long Ming woman and refuse to admit her wrong and you provoke him?"

"That…" Lu Zhai Quan faces suddenly turn red, maybe everyone had known it was his clan fault from the beginning if only they swallow their dignity and genuinely asked Long Ming forgiveness the situation might not escalate this far.

"When you asked for help the least you could do is being honest Elder Lu" Nan Yu Wei sit on the stool and the lady next to her pour her some wine and the sweet scent spread in the air.

Lu Zhai Quan becomes awry he didn't know if he offended the holy lady, asking her help is the last resort to fight Long Ming if he failed now then the Lu clan would be destroyed.

Nan Yu Wei sips her wine elegantly then she put down the cup on the table and tilted her head "Is Long Ming gives you trouble to avenged his fiancée?" he suddenly asked.

"We believe so…" he said in a grimace.

Nan Yu Wei scoffed "I don't believe it, I know what kinda man he is, how can someone like him knew anything about love even created havoc because of her….it sound ridiculous for me" she had met Zhao Li Xin a long time ago she also one of the women who had seen his face before he begins wearing that gold mask.

She admits her heart was shaken when she met him the first time but his cold empty eyes awaked her from her daze and send a shiver to her bones, she immediately knew no one could melt this man's heart that if he has a heart at all.

She admired and feared him at the same time she keeps her distance because she knew the dire consequences if she dares to get too close when she heard he have fiancée she feel something is not right, she wonders what his plan to suddenly have a fiancée and why her?

"Is milady think he lied?" Lu Zhai Quan frowned.

"Someone cold and calculated like him suddenly has a fiancée out of nowhere is very suspicious don't you think?" She rests her hand on the table and props her chin.

"Holy Lady, whatever reason he had he adamant to destroy my clan, so please…." Lu Zhai Quan didn't care what Long Ming reason to have fiancée maybe he does have a greater plan but the fact he wants to eliminated the Lu clan still not change.

"True…."Nan Yu Wei smile innocently then she raised from her seat and approach Lu Zhai Quan with a devilish smile "My request remains the same, find the blessed child and we will help your clan"

Lu Zhai Quan clenches his fist, he has mobilized all of his men to find that boy but he still didn't have a clue where he is and Hei Shen troops are getting closer to his place, he scared when he eventually finds that boy everything is too late.

"Understood" he swallows his worry and cupped his fist.

Nian Yu Wei smirked then she waves her hand lazily "You may leave…" she said with bored toned and the lady who leads him to the room smile at Lu Zhai Quan then she raised her hand politely proceed him to leave the room, Lu Zhai Quan has no choice he takes a deep breath and leave the room.
