The Princess And The Lord

At Past midnight,  the fight between Hei Shen and Jin Kai's men broke out in the Misty Lake area, Hei Shen sect members attacked the guards who were on patrol they also attacked the residences of the elders who supported Jin kai including the Jin family residence.

The sudden attack shocked everyone who was unprepared, screams and clashes of metal resounded throughout the clan, several clan members who realized they were not Hei Shen sect opponents hid in their homes and luckily none of the Hei Shen members attacked the ordinary clan member's residence, however, they were warned not to leave their homes until everything over, who knows when that will happen.

Elsewhere shrouded in the darkness of night, two white and red shadows moved at lightning speed from tree to tree then streaked down the path towards a forbidden place where only the Misty Lake leader was allowed to enter.

On the way, they were confronted by a group of Jin Kai's men.

"You are not allowed to enter this place!" said one of Jin Kai's men.

"If you don't want to die, get out of here!" another shouted.

What was different about this group was that they weren't like the rest of Jin Kai's men. This group of people looked confident in the face of Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan who clearly had cultivation far above them, surprisingly they didn't show the slightest bit of fear as if they were sure can beat Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan.

"I didn't know Ji Kai's dog could bark so loudly!" Bei Li Yan sneered.

"You dare insult us, you will regret it later!" the youngest of them pointed his finger at Bei Li Yan.

"Oh my gosh, huh?" Bei Li Yan mocked them.

"YOU!" the young man was infuriated but the older man raised his hand to stop the young man while saying "We better show this arrogant man, the true strength that Master jin blessed to us," He opened his eyes wide as if they held some dark warning, everyone in the group suddenly smirked towards Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan.

Sensing that there was something odd about this group, Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan took out their weapons from their rings, if there was one thing they had learned after meeting Lory, it was not to underestimate their opponent.

"I have a feeling this going to be fun~" A wild, dangerous glitter in Bei Li Yan's eyes.

Jin Hao then raised his chin arrogantly, "The injured will lose"

"You want to make a bet? Don't cry if you lose." Bei Li Yan smirked.

"You too, sissy!" Jin Hao leaped towards them, like a whirlwind, his sudden attack sending them scattering like dry leaves.

Another fight break out, Bei Li Yan waved his whip and hit two people at once they were thrown to the ground while spitting out fresh blood. Jin Hao also did not lose, with just one slash of three people cutting off his arm, blood spurting into the air, and staining the ground and pungent smelled permeated to the air, however, it didn't enough to scare the other as they continued attacking them with full forces.

Although they were stronger than normal Jin Kai subordinates they were still no match for the Hei Shen king's Palace.

Soon they all lay down in the ground covered with their own blood, Bei Li Yan flick his whip and snort in annoyance "Tsk, I thought they will be fun"

"Hm, this is strange..." Jin Hao felt the aura around them not diminishing even thicker, immediately black smoke came from them, slowly they all rose from the ground grunting and huffing while baring their fangs that suddenly grew at the same time all the whites of their eyes turned pitch black, and those who lost their limbs due to Jin Hao's slash took their severed hands from the ground, they attached the cut of hands to their arms all of a sudden their hands reconnected again follow by their excited roar.

"Oh, that's new" Interest lit up Bei Li Yan's eyes

"Turn out is going to be fun after all" Jin Hao had a dangerous glint in his eyes.

"Why can only demons be killed by pure Qi?" Bei Li Yan closed his eyes, a small light flashed between his palms like a firefly.

Lory watched them as she sat at the small table while eating small cookies, she then clapped to remove the breadcrumbs from his hands then slowly drank his tea, after he finished he looked at Bei Li Yan who was still practicing diligently, a sight Lory rarely saw.

"Is it hard to learn?" Lory tilted her head.

Jin Hao flipped his palm then slowly opened his fiat a small light floated on his hand just like Bei Li Yan "No, the theory is simple, you just align your mind and body, circulate your energy in one direction and keep your mind stable as you draw the Qi essence from your body..." as he said that the light between his palms grew slightly bigger

"What's strange is that I don't feel any strong power from this light, as if something is missing…I don't understand how we kill parasites demons or other dark creatures with this little power" Bei Li Yan looks a bit worried.

"I don't know about your power but in my world, we are taught to have our Gift, we have to listen to our heart then what we want, what is our goal then we make a wish in our heart and our gift will manifest it into reality" Lory propped up her chin as she spoke to them in a relaxed manner.

"Is that how it is?" Jin Hao raised his brows curiously.

"At least that's one of the theories but it's the only theory that resonates with me" Lory clasped her hands in front of her chest then she lower her head and close her eyes like she was praying then slowly she released her hands all of a sudden hundreds of small light scattered to air and fall on the ground like rain soon after flower bloom on the tree even though is not the season yet, then the bushes and grasses that had been trimmed neatly before days suddenly overgrow and the flowers bloomed gloriously.

Before their eyes all flowers from different seasons suddenly bloom at the same time and the air is covered with flower petals it was a magical sight and not long after the scent of the flowers attracts many butterflies and the overgrown tree invites small birds to come, the garden suddenly turned into some kinda paradise garden.

Bei Li Yan and Jin Hao were stunned, they felt like they were cast in a dream.

Lory folded her hands on the table and look at them with a bright smile "See, this is what I wish my power to be so what do you wish for your new power"

____________________________

Cultivation is a power that you build long ago starting from the size of one's potential determining how far their cultivation was but then cultivators found ways to correct their lack of potency by using medicines and potions to strengthen their body and speed up their ability to absorb Qi by their body.

in short, like building a fortress brick by brick, the potential would determine how quickly and how large the fortress would be while strength that Zhao Li Xin thought was not like that was actually more like Lory's Gift that manifested from the heart and for cultivators like Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan it was a strange method, therefore, Lory guidance is a big help for them to understand this new power.

Back in the present, a group of people has turned into other beings who are definitely not human, long claws growing on their hands, veins popped out on their skin while gnashing their sharp teeth, Jin hao and Bei Li Yan didn't know what creature is this could it be they are Lesser Demon created by Jin Kai?

Jin Hao raised his sword upward in front of him a light came from him then engulf the sword, another light also came from Bei Li Yan and engulf his whip making the whip move in a circle around him as if it was alive.

"I've been dying to try this new power" Bei Li Yan grinned excitedly.

"The rule the same though, whose got hurt will be lost" Jin Hao smile mischievously.
