The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 701 - A Slip Of The Hand



One of the shadow guards leads the two young women to safety, while Lory continued in a direction the two young women had shown them. As they get closer the pungent smelled hits their noses immediately, this familiar stench was recognized as blood, rotting meat, feces, beast odor combined into one so it's not pleasant! Everyone covers their nose and mouth with a cloth without being told.

The sounds of people singing, shouting, and bickering increasing as they get closer. Lory surprised they found more pirates than she originally expected, based on the camp that scattered all over there at least thirty to forty people are around the island, in the middle there was a quite big bonfire where the pirates drink and circled around it.

​​

"How long have they been doing it, why are they taking so long with the girls?" the gruff voice suddenly rang out near the bonfire. The man got a rough appearance with terrible scars run from his temple to his jaw, the words 'I'm a bad guy' clearly written all over his face.

"Who knows, it's been a long time since they tasted woman flesh they might be too excited," said another pirate with a scrawny body and yellow teeth.

"Hump, they are not the only one!" the man with the scars scowled in upset "I also have a need and that two young girls are still young and tender, I don't want them ruined the girls before I do!"  he speaks as if the women nothing more than a tool than a person.

"No one should ruin those girls, we still need them to feed that creature inside the cave…" another pirate with dark skin remained them.

"You right, someone should check them and warned them not to hurt the girls too much. That things like it meats fresh!" the men with scars said in a grimace.

Lory saw there are only ten or twelve people around the bonfire, it wouldn't hard for them to get rid of them, Lory sign Bei Li Yan and the others to prepare to attacked then she summoned her bowed from the ring, she take two arrows at the same time and pull the strings.

She marked the two people who stand the furthest from the bonfire simply because she thought these people would be the ones who would easily getaway. Lory squinted her eyes and focus her aimed, she takes deep breathes for a second then she released her arrows.

The arrow flew with buzzing sounds, and perfectly Pearce the men's forehead, instantly their body falls in the ground, it's all happened so fast the other pirated thought they fell because they're too drunk, the fellow's pirates laugh at them until they notice the arrow tore the men's skull and blood has flown from their head.

"INTRUDER!" one of them shouted in panic.

They didn't have the time to draw their swords when Bei Li Yan and the others rammed towards them at lightning speed. Bei Li Yan smashed one of the prates head to the ground and give the poor man instant death. While Mong Yi slash one of their arms and stabbed the man's chest in a single move, only took five seconds for Hei Shen members to kill a dozen people.

Lory didn't flinch from the scene in front of her, she had no pity to these bunch of nasty pirated if there something in this world that she hated as much as Lazarus it would be rapist and pedophile, Lory never had problem killed thousands of men's like them, it won't even bother her good night sleep. Lory lands her feet on the ground smoothly then she walks towards Bei Li Yan.

"They talked about a creature inside the cave," Lory said.

"It could be the Hybrid Beast" Bei Li Yan's expression hardened.

"It seems they're feeding the beast with living human" Mong Yi gritted his teeth, although he had killed a lot of people, however, he never killed innocent people especially people who can't defend themselves when he recalled the two young women from before Mong Yi can't face hardened.

"We need to know what kind of monster they cooked inside that cave" her eyebrows knitted closely as she immersed in her thought, she didn't want to lead her people to unpredictable danger, she needs to be careful.

"Let's kidnapped one of the pirated and see what we can squeeze from them" Bei Li Yan waggle his eyebrows mischievously.

"Shall we?" Lory cocked her head with a big grinned. 

And so they search for another poor pirated in the island which is not hard at all, it only took one minute to find another drunken pirated leaned on a tree trunk, one of the shadow guards sneaked from behind then choked the drunken man with his arms until he fainted and dragged the drunken pirate somewhere secluded.

The man awakens with a bucket of water throw on his face, the man coughs violently perhaps because he inhales some of the water but then he realizes he fell into a dire situation. He was shocked when he was surrounded by a bunch of men in black uniforms, It's finally dawned to him that they are not part of his crew.

The pirate looked at Bei Li Yan who he thought the leader of this group simply because he looks more imposing compare to others even though he can't see his face because Bei Li Yan's face cover with a black cloth and everything is too dark so it only shows Bei Li Yan silhouette.

"Who….who are you?" The pirate raised his voice to show his defiance.

However the pirated was drenched and the anxiety in his eyes was too apparent so everyone knows the pirate is only pretending, Bei Li Yan chuckles lightly, the pirated brave acted is quite amusing for him.

"This not your place to asked, it's mine" Bei Li Yan mocked the pirate stupidity.

One of the shadow guards kicks the pirated back of the knee and he falls on her knee with loud sounds, he withstands his body with his hands as he looked at Bei Li Yan with utter fear "What…what do you want from me?"

"What creature you had inside the cave?" Bei Li Yan asked.

The pirated stunned then shook his head "What creature, there….there's nothing inside the cave…" he lied.

Bei Li Yan sighs heavily, they don't know why people always lie in this situation. Bei Li Yan nod at Mong Yi then without further explanation Mong Yi takes a step forward then punches the stupid pirate, the man slammed to the ground with bleeding lips.

"Please don't bother to lie, it's tiresome…" Bei Li Yan whines, he doesn't want to waste more time with this idiotic man.

The pirate spat blood on the ground he looked at Bei Li Yan's dark figures, although his words were gentle and soft almost sound feminine, but he could feel the chilling aura came from the man and his heart sank, even though he was scared, but he didn't dare to betray the people that had hired him, that person was too scary.

"I don't know what are you talking about, I think you are crazy?" he clenched his jaw.

Bei Li Yan rolled his eyes feeling tired already "Well, you are not the first person who told me that…"

"Let me go, you don't know who I work for if you knew you all will be sorry, I don't care who you are, you all will be dead, you hear me, ALL OF YOU!" the pirated pour out his anger, he thought his words will be enough to make them hesitated a little.

If only he knew what kinda person he had provoked, but soon he regretted his action when another punch land to his face. A tooth dramatically flew from his mouth then His body swayed like a bamboo tree then his shoulders were pressed by two peoples to keep him from falling, he was still in a daze when another punch came, and more punches follow until his face cover with blood and bruises. 

The pirate's face was hit beyond recognition, the ugly face had become uglier, then the shadow guards stopped pressing his shoulder, immediately his body falls on the ground like fallen leaves.

"Can you be honest now?" Bei Li Yan calmly asked, but the man didn't answer.

Bei Li Yan shifts his glance at Mong Liu "You don't accidentally break his jaw, do you? because we still need him to talk" Bei Li Yan worriedly said.

Mong Yi feel annoyed by Bei Li Yan's question "I'm not stupid, I don't even use Qi when I hit him!" he rebukes strongly.

"Then why can't he speak?" Bei Li Yan cocked his head and opened his hands.

Mong Yi got curious too, he crouched down in front of the pirate who seemed to pass out, to check his condition Mong Yi stretch his hand to check the man pulsed, suddenly the pirate jump towards him with a blade in his hand because of reflex Mong Yi grabbed the pirated hands and gave a fatal blow to the man chest, and then the stupid pirate threw three meters back and crashed into a nearby tree trunk.

The sound of broken bones was loudly heard and the man flumped to the ground, and everyone was silent for a moment. 

'That's it?'

They can't believe that the stupid pirate would die just like that so they wait for that man to make some reaction, but judging by the amount of blood coming from the man's mouth and his unmoving chest there's a high possibility that the man has died.

"Wait, is he dead - REALLY?" Lory emerged from behind Bei Li Yan, she didn't show herself before because she didn't want to interfere with their interrogation method, but what kinda a method is this?

"I think so…?" Bei Li Yan subconsciously leaned his body forward then he snapped his finger to sign someone checked the stupid man condition.

One of the shadow guards who stand closer with the seemingly dead pirated checked the man pulsed then a second later he lift his head "His dead!" 

"Whaaatt…are you sure?" Lory's shoulder slumped, she hasn't asked anything yet.

"Yes madam, the dead man is dead!" the shadow guard answers firmly.

Bei Li Yan clicked his tongues exasperatedly "It's your fault!" he gives Mong Yi side-eye.

"It's my bad, I apologize madam" he bowed his head, Mong Yi  have to admit it does his faulted, he cupped his fist towards Lory "I'll find another pirate to interrogate"

"Yeah…I think you should…" Lory let out a long exhales.

"Try not killed them before we interrogate them this time!" Bei Li Yan sarcastically said.
