The Princess And The Lord

"What creatures" Lory drew a sharp breath.

Jin Hua weakly shook her head, "I don't know I never seen anything like that before?"

"Can you describe it…?" Lory ask again, even though she look calm but Zhao Li Xin could see how tense her whole body is.

"It…it had wrinkled dark green skin, big head, like a lizard,  with wide jaws and very sharp yellow teeth, it also got two hands with claws but…." Jin Hua trembles as she describes the creatures.

"Are there membranes on their hands and fins on the underside?" Lorry guests.

"Yes!" Jin Hua was shocked.

"Does it stand on two legs and have legs?" Lory explained further.

Jin Hua's eyes widened in shock, "Yes, that's right! That creature had hunchback too"

"Does the creature have scales, like fish?" Lory narrowed her eyes.

"No, just wrinkled skin like someone who's been in the tub for too long." Jin Hua explained as clearly as she could. 

Lory clasped her hands over her stomach, she pursed her lips feeling a little doubtful, "It's a little different from the creature I know but the creature that Miss Jin described is similar to the 'Swamp Snatch' I know." Lory massaged her forehead. Why it seems that Lazarus' creativity flourished after he arrived in this world? 

Everyone showed their surprise and Jin Hao throw a straight question, "Is this creature strong?"

"No, not really….as long as you know the creature's weakness" Lory explained calmly "The real Swamp Snatcher lives in… obviously in the swamp, that's where the name comes from as you know my folks is not very creative with naming" Lory embarrassedly admitted it, even Girsha can't deny this.

Lory awkwardly cleared her throat and continued, "The swamp snatcher is a scavenger type of beast, it is possible that another beast killed the Jin Hua beast and left a part of the carcass and the swamp snatcher…." Lory realized how concerning the creativity level of people in her old world was.

Jin Hua looked at Lory in surprise, "Madam, have you seen a creature like this before?" didn't mean to belittle Long Ming's wife but Jin Hua didn't expect that she would keep so many secrets, as expected for Master Long Ming's wife, obviously, she couldn't be an ordinary woman.

"Yeah...among other things that I don't I want to see again" Lory didn't look proud on the contrary she looked restless.

Lory knows Lazarus wants to destroy this world for whatever reason but what Lory doesn't understand is why Lazarus created a Hybrid Beast if the end result is to devour everything and everyone so why is he trying so hard, did he troll Lao Min Na…. for what? Lao Min Na has become nothing but a puppet dancing under his thumb, Lazarus doesn't need to force Lao Min Na to do anything, by now Lao Min Na needs Lazarus more than Lazarus needs her.

Lory shook her head to ease the tension, Lory knew she had to collect her thoughts and focus on the situation before her eyes first, "After your beast is killed, what do you do?" Lory continued her questioning.

"As madam said, those creatures are not that strong but they are very agile especially when in the water, some of my men who were dragged into the swamp didn't have a chance to fight back" Jin Hua's voice cracked a little.

"At that time I thought of retreating but… if I did that I felt my subordinated sacrifices will be for vain." Jin Hua smiled bitterly as she realized her folly.

Jin Hua take a deep breath before she continue again, "We walking into the forest towards the temple, on the way we met other strange creatures but luckily none of my members were seriously injured, after what happened we became more alert but nothing could prepare us for what we saw inside the temple ." Jin Hua's voice edged in fear.

"What do you see?" Ming Yue Yin could feel how scared Jin Hua was.

Jin Hua's hands became wet and damp as she endured the tremors that swept over her body, "I saw a lot of humans gathered in one large courtyard maybe it was used as an outdoor ceremony or something, I'm not sure. ...it doesn't matter, what matter is the people that were gathered they were all unconscious, all of that men and women were lying in the yard... at first, I thought they were dead but then….they started to wake up and suddenly they start attacked each other like crazy, they punched, kick and bite no matter who their opponent was they not even bother to ask a question as if they were possessed, and they don't stop until their opponent is completely dead" Jin Hua shuddered in horror.

"And I saw Lao Min Na and Jin kai and their subordinates just staring coldly from afar as if this is nothing strange to them" Jin Hua subconsciously wrapped her arms around her body to calm herself.

"After they have done, only a few were still alive but they weren't in good condition either but they didn't seem notice what happened to herself...not long after Lao Min Na's subordinates came and they gave them drinking bowls" Through all of this incident Jin Hua left the baffle, nothing seems Which makes sense, why were they given a drink after they killing each other? Is it a reward?

"What kind of drink?" Lory ask.

"I don't know, I don't remember" Jin Hua shook her head.

"Relax, remember carefully, a cultivator has a high sensitivity so you must see something.. maybe the color of the liquid or the texture, how they react when they drink the liquid, do they like it or hate it" Lory slowly directed Jin Memory Hua for more details

Jin Hua furrowed his brows as she tried to remember, "It's black liquid!" she clapped her hands excitedly "It's like ink but it much thicker?" Jin Hua rubs her fingers together as she remembers a man dripping the drink on the side of his mouth, and thankfully with her high cultivation, Jin Hua can clearly see what that man drinking and she remembers.

As soon as everyone in the room exchanged glances, they could guess what those idiots were drinking.

"You didn't tell me about this before?" Jin Hao looks disappointed for missing the crucial information.

"I just remembered...is this important?" Jin Hua looked confused.

Even though Jin Hua had told his story to Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan before, he remembered a lot more after she was led by Lory, it was as if she pulled out the corner of her brain and pick up all the memories she thought she had forgotten, thus Jin Hua's admiration for Lory instantly increased.

"Alright then...Miss Jin when you saw all those people, was there anyone you might recognize?" Lory didn't react much, on contrary she seemed calmer and his voice softer than before, but Zhao Li Xin knew the calmer Lory looked on the outside the more anxious she actually felt on the inside.

"I saw a lot of people from my clan, then I saw some people from the Iron sect, and the Sacred Lotus sect but I didn't recognize the others, they might be from the Xin Fang continent or maybe another continent or sect that I don't know"  Jin Hua looked regretful , she wished she had paid more attention.

"I saw a lot of people from my clan, then I saw some people from the Iron sect, and the Sacred Lotus sect but I didn't recognize the others, they might be from the Xin Fang continent or maybe another continent so I don't 'don't know' Jin Hua looked regretful because it can't be helped.

"Don't worry it's okay" Lory immediately comforted her, "Then tell me what happened after they drank the liquid?"

"They suddenly became quiet and calm, too calm actually it was as if they didn't realize what they had done earlier, they all looked empty and they were taken by Lao Min Na's people to another place….and the remains corpses was..." Jin Hua furrowed his brows to contain his disgust, "Lao Min Na released her strange creatures to eat the remains of the corpses in the yard"

"Then what happened ?" Ming Yue Yin couldn't help but tense up.

"And then we were caught, Jin Kai's subordinates chased us and you know what happened?" Jin Hua sighed heavily.

The room fell silent for a moment. Jin Hua has lost her subordinates and contract beasts, and if Bei Li Yan didn't come on time Jin Hua would definitely be dead by now, realizing this Jin Hao had a heavy heart to admit that he owed this flirtatious sissy….but that didn't mean he would give up his little sister.

'Hump, this and that is different matter'
