The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 943 - Welcome To The Belly Of The Beast



On a cold night, the sound of the wind howling loudly, the branches of the tree swaying, making the sound of rustling leaves, sharing the whispers of people, but this gives two women the advantage to bounce between the branches of the tree, their movements are very fast, agile but quiet that's why none of Jin Kai's underlings noticed the two of them moreover they had wore talismans to hide their presence, therefore, Jin Hua and Lan Hua were able to bypass all the guards in ease.

Jin Hua's contractual beast track led them to climb a steep rocky cliff thanks to the fact that these two women had high cultivation so it wasn't difficult for them to climb the cliff swiftly.

Still, they had to be careful as they reached the top because there were many guards guarding this place, Jin Hua knew this place led to a forbidden place at the top of the mountain that only clan leaders and elders could visit if they got permission, of course.

Lan Hua clicked her tongue impatiently, she saw the tip of one of the guard shoes who is standing near the edge, since Lan Hua didn't feel the presence of anyone else near that person, she then grabbed the man's ankle and she pulled him off the cliff, the man's scream immediately was cover by the howling wind as he fell at high speed.

Lan Hua smirked then she quickly reach the top meanwhile Jin Hua follow behind her. Jin Hua and Lan Hua used shadows and shrubs to make the place where the building was, what made Jin Hua shocked was the number of guards that has been patrolling in this place even though Jin Hua had never visited this place personally but she had never heard that so many guards were guarding this place, however, what made her even more baffled was why Jin Gu let Jin Kai tarnish this place whether it meant Jin Gu supported Jin kai's plan or something else happened.

when they were sneaking Lan Hua suddenly pressed Jin Hua's shoulder to keep him from moving, Jin Hua instinctively followed Lan Hua's orders then not long after they saw Elder Zheng climbing the foot of the mountain with a few members of the Zhuang family, Jin Hua face instantly become dark.

The old man was one of the reasons why Jin Hao's mother's life was so miserable, elder Zhuang hated Zhuang Yao Xi simply because she had dignity and honor she refuse to used her position to harmed Jin Gu's other wives and son's she also refused to involve Jin Hao in the bloody fight for the clan leader position, as a result, the old man shamelessly married his other daughter to Jin Gu so that his ambition could be fulfilled. 

Jin Hua saw that Elder Zhuang's sturdy back, his posture look like he got ten years younger and his cultivation seems increased greatly too, however, Jin Hua knew that probably cause by Lao Min Na's drugs effect, she knew it was only temporary before the drugs slowly devouring his sanity, although it sounds cruel but Jin Hua wanted to be there when it happens.

"It seems that elder Zhuang also used Lao Min Na's medicine, I heard he was in a bottleneck for a decade now his cultivation has suddenly increased greatly no doubt it must be because of Lao Min Na's pills" Lan Hua muttered in a hushed tone.

"Served him right" Jin Hua scoffed, "I guessed all the Zhuang family used Lao Min Na pill but if that true that means they  didn't know the truth about Lao Min Na drugs" 

Lan Hua snickered "Or perhaps they knew but they just don't care"

Jin Hua grimaced because it was possible. In a world where strength and power are valued more than life, no wonder people will take a great length to gain it still Jin Hua convinced that Jin Kai didn't tell Elder Zhuang everything about the pill or Lao Min Na, that's why elder Zhuang dared to take this risk.

Jin Hua couldn't believe Jin Kai would tell elder Zhuang all about his plans just because they were related by blood. Jin Hua knew that the relationship between Jin Kai and Elder Zheng was never deep after all they were the same type of people, ironically that was the reason elder Zhuang choose Jin Kai over Ji Hao.

"Let's go!" Lan Hua poked Jin Hua's shoulder to follow him. They kept sneaking between the bushes, and in the shade to get past the guard until they finally arrived at the main gate to the place of the forbidden building was, unfortunately, the entire area of ​​the building was protected by a protective array so they couldn't sneak in while in the front gate was guarded by two gatekeepers who seemed quite strong.

They then watched behind the tree trunk as one of Zhuang's elders showed the letter to the guard only after the guard checked the contents of the letter they took out a paper talisman then pressed it on the surface of the gate then the giant gate automatically opened after they let Elder Zhuang and his people enter the gate. 

Jin Hua narrowed her eyes as she watched them from afar then she turned to Lan Hua "They use talismans as keys to deactivate arrays around the building, I don't think hallucinogens will work you know" Jin Hua pursed her lips in annoyance.

"Well, it seems we must do the hard ways now." Lan Hua blows her cheek cutely.

After Elder Zheng passed through the gate, the two guards continued their duties, their watchful gazes swept the area around them they also sharpening their senses to make sure they didn't miss anything then suddenly they heard a rustling sound from the direction of the trees.

They then caught a woman who was startled as their eyes meet the woman then turned around and fled in a hurry, the guards immediately shouted: "STOP THERE!"

Of course, no one would stop when someone shouted at them like that, the guard chased the mysterious girl into the grove of trees then suddenly the girl stopped then she calmly turned around.

"Who are you, don't you know this is a forbidden area?!" the guard scolded with a gruff voice.

the girl tilted her head and smirked then suddenly their necks split open and dark red blood spurted from their necks, they make a choking sound before their lifeless bodies fell to the ground.

"Well, that easy..." Jin Hua raised her brows in surprise after she slid the two guards without trouble.

Lan Hua's grin then shows a perfume pouch on her hand "They don't realize they were poisoned by the numbing effect when they chassed me that's why it easy to kill them, they were actually quite strong.."

"That's smart" Jin Hua's eyes lit up in admiration.

Lan Hua smiled while raising her chin proudly "Well, madam said one must fight smarter not harder"

"Master Long Ming said that?" Jin Hua never saw Lory fight so he didn't know he was really wondering if Lory could really fight because he didn't see the flow of Qi around him so it was clear that Lory wasn't a cultivator but he heard Lory had his own mysterious power which made him very curious.

"According to Master Bei, what makes Madam dangerous is not only her mysterious power but also her fighting skills, Madam is resourceful and cunning, she is someone who has calculated her opponent's moves even before she fought them, therefore even without her mysterious power Master Bei said she's not an easy opponent" Lan Hua's eyes lit up as she told about Lory what she had heard from Bei Li Yan and the others.

"I couldn't imagine, madam seems like a 'Happy go lucky' person I always see her smile in a carefree manner," Jin Hua tilted her head as she remembered her meeting with Lory.

"Don't let that fool you, madam carry a burden that none of us could've imagined" Lan Hua said while rummaging the body corpse to find the talisman after she found it she turn to Jin Hua "Let's go now!"

"En!" Jin Hua nodded.

They both reached the front gate, they placed the talisman on the gate then a mysterious mark appeared on the gate immediately connected with the mark on the talisman a few moments later they heard something snap then suddenly the gate opened slightly, they saw each other before they pushed the gate together, Lan Hua then took talisman from the gate before he pushed the gate closed again, finally, they entered.

"This is my first time here so I don't know what we will find inside" Jin Hua's face becomes tense from nervousness.

"If it's Jin Kai, we'd better expect demons and monsters to welcome us" Lan Hua gave a half-joking answer.
