The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 1306  The Lord is Back!

On a quiet day, the sun shines brightly hindered by the white thin clouds moving so slowly in the light blue sky, and flocks of birds fly hide and seek behind the clouds as they move harmoniously as if they were dancing. 'What a peaceful day' he thought.

Zhao Li Xin lay on the grass, staring at the blue sky for a long moment before he gathered his thoughts and then turned his head at his empty palms.

He could still feel the remains of the crystal in his hand but now the crystal had shattered into glittering dust. Zhao Li Xin was already transferred outside the labyrinth without the slightest injury, clearly, the Elysian crystal Lory gave him had saved him again.

A warm gentle smile spread across his beautiful face, as the familiar feeling of being saved by Lory brought a lot of beautiful memories from the past.

[Master, you okay right?] The fire spirit speaks from within.

Zhao Li Xin raised his back and then sat on the grass. Without further examination he knew other than tattered clothes there wouldn't even be a scratch on his body, his wife's protection was perfect!

[With my wife's protection, how could I not be,] he proudly boasts about Lory again.

If the fire spirit had eyes, it would definitely roll its eyes, sadly he had to agree with his Master. Whatever, the fire spirit feigns ignorance and says: [I am tired, sir, so I couldn't talk to you for a while so please don't miss me] the spirit sounds dejected.

[I won't] Zhao Li Xin replies coldly.

Once again the spirit pretends he didn't hear him, [By the way master, I suggest you immediately make a breakthrough to the sovereign level as soon as possible therefore you can summon my physical form. When that happens I will able to give you my body and soul~] said the fire spirit said shyly.

[.....] Zhao Li Xin suddenly doesn't want to be cultivated anymore.

Thanks to his keen hearing he had already heard the sound of missiles heading towards him so he managed to grab his backpack. Luckily his backpack wasn't too far from him, so before the whole place exploded he managed to crush the Elysian crystal and send himself out.

Later on, the fire spirit's presence gradually faded. Zhao Li Xin feels much more comfortable without a pervert speaking in his head, he doesn't know why the crimson lightning sword spirit sounds like a pervert. If he could he really wanted to complain to Huo Long and ask for a refund.

Zhao Li Xin let out a heavy sigh then brushed his long black hair away from his face, after that turn to the backpack that lay next to him.

Thanks to his keen hearing he had already heard the sound of missiles heading towards him so he managed to grab his backpack. Luckily his backpack wasn't too far from him, so before the whole place exploded he managed to crush the Elysian crystal and send himself out.

He had to admit that people were right when they said success was ninety percent hard work and ten percent luck.

Zhao Li Xin then checked his bag to see if there were any clothes left in his backpack... and there were! It was a black short-sleeved shirt, unfortunately, there were no pants so he had no choice but to wear his tattered pants. The problem was that his upper thighs were clearly visible even though his butt was still safely covered, even so, he felt very uncomfortable.

Although he never cared about how people perceived him, however, as a conservative man he couldn't walk around showing his bare legs like a chicken!

Actually, Zhao Li Xin's appearance is not too bad, her upper thighs are not as exposed as Zhao Li Xin thought and many young people wear pants like this, they call this style 'ripped jeans'

But of course, an old-fashioned man like Zhao Li Xin wouldn't be able to accept this unsophisticated style.

Zhao Li Xin took the cell phone and then proceeded to call Lory, however after waiting for a long time Lory didn't answer her phone. Zhao Li Xin looks at his phone then a deep wrinkle forming on his brows.

What Zhao Li Xin didn't know was that Lory had blocked all calls except Garrof and the others so that no one could intercept their lines or disrupt their connection, it also helped Lory focus on her mission.

Anxiety gripped his heart, Zhao Li Xin knew something must have happened that caused Lory to be unable to answer his phone. Zhao Li Xin saw dozens of messages from Lory in his inbox and then carefully read all of them one by one.

It didn't take long for Zhao Li Xin to understand the gist of Lory's plan. The simple explanation is, that Lory took a high risk to enter the enemy's nest to get important information.

His heart hammered in his chest. angry and frustrated flood through his being. He can't wait to get his wife and hear what lousy excuse she would say to him, this woman is a liar, just see how he will punish her! 'No cakes for a months!' But first, he must find a way to get where Lory is as soon as possible. Zhao Li Xin then proceeded to make a call after a few incoming calls someone answered.

"Black Crow guild, may I help you"

"I'm Raven Jane's husband, I'm calling from Death Knell Labyrinth, let me speak with the authority" Zhao Li Xin who didn't know about exchanging pleasantries spoke bluntly in a commanding tone.

The woman behind the phone was startled and immediately replied, "Oh..okay - okay, please wait for a second Sir!" she seemed to drop the phone and scurry away.

Zhao Li Xin closes his eyes trying to quell his temper, It seems he still doesn't have much patience for anyone other than Lory.

Not long after someone answered the phone "Mr. Zhao, I'm glad you okay!" the woman behind the phone sounded amazed and excited.

As always, he doesn't care, "I need someone to pick me up" Zhao Li Xin's attitude was blunt and domineering.

Nathalie was not offended because she had met Zhao Lixin before, as a hunter they respected strong people, and for Zhao Li Xin to survive venturing alone in the most dangerous labyrinth proved that he was much stronger than her. "Of course, may I know where you are?" Nathalie asked.

"Can you track my location from my cell phone?" to be honest, Zhao Li Xin had no idea where he is right now.

"I can, then I will send someone to pick you up, but your location is quite far so please be patient—" Nathalie had not yet finished speaking when she heard disconnected sounds 'Tuuuttt' Zhao Li Xin had hung up his phone. Nathalie's mouth twitched, she had never been treated this rude since the end of the Dark Age War but what could she do? She swallowed down her anger and then beckoned one of the guild employees.

"Hey you - yeah, you, come here!"

As soon as the young man came, Nathalie gave an order, "I want you to pick up our VIP hunter, his name is Mr. Zhao and he is at this location!" Nathalie showed her phone screen which showed Zhao Li Xin's location, "I will send you his location, so hurry up"

The young employee is only in his early twenties, and he looks very eager to please Nathalie "Yes Miss, but what Mr. Zhao looks like?"

Nathalie just realized she didn't have Zhao Li Xin's picture and he didn't attach a photo on his contact profile either, Natahlie massaged her head, "He is from Xiya country so she look like eastern man very handsome, very gloomy, he also very intimidating so be extra polite" Nathalie repeatedly remind the young man.

The young man have many question but unnable to say it, then he nod obidiently "Okay, rightaway miss!" the young man take storm out in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin waited alone in the green field surrounded by lush green trees, he was not sure if he was still around the Grey Valley or somewhere else, but what was certain was that the Labyrinth was nowhere to be seen, could it be that he had moved far from where he was before?

Zhao Li Xin checked his pocket, he still had one medium-sized Elysian crystal from Lory, it was a crystal that could heal and create a barrier for him, he better keep it, who knows he might need it someday.

An hour later the employee from the Black crow Guild arrived near the location he had been pointed, but the exact location was still deep inside the Grey Valley so it would take another half an hour.

The young man cast a strengthening spell and a speed increasing spell after which he shot out like an arrow released from his bow, he disappeared into the forest.

With that spell he managed to reach Zhao Li Xin in fifteen minutes. The boy looked for ZhaoLiXin then he saw a man standing straight like a pole with his back facing me. His long hair fluttered and one of his hands rested on his back, the man looked calm and dignified even from behind.

Before the young man called him, the man had already turned around, immediately shocked. The man was absolutelty gorgeous with exquisite feature and a pair of dark cold eyes that terrifying but captivating at the same time.

"The Guild send you?" Zhao Li Xin's vice was deep and emotionless.

The young man snap from his daze, "Ye...yes, are you Mr. Zhao?" his voice was silghtly high out of nervousness though he doesn't know what make him so nervous.

Zhao Li Xin sling the backpack on his shoulder then walk past the young man "Let's go!" 'He's not answer my question'

"Yes sir!" the young man reply readily then chassed after Zhao Li Xin.

Using Qinggong, Zhao Li Xin flew at the speed of light causing the young man to have difficulty keeping up. Zhao Li Xin did not bother to hold back his strength, considering Garrof and Lloyd as the standard, but he forgot that they were former elite soldiers who managed to survive the Dark Age War so how could a young man in his twenties be able to match?

When they reached the car the poor young man's legs lost their strength he fell to his knees panting heavily. He only take a mana potion before he able to breathe, the young man wiped the sweat on his forehead then look at Zhao Li Xin with admiration "You are very fast sir"

Zhao Li Xin face remain impassived, without Lory around his Paralysis face symtoms returned.

"Let's go," Zhao Li Xin become impatient.

'He ignoring me again' the young man sigh

Not only his face parlysis return even his taciturn attitude reaccured as if never left, perhaps it's never left.

The young man hurriedly stood up and politely opened the back seat door for Zhao Lixin. Before Zhao Li Xin enter the car his eyes size the boy up and down causing the boy feel uncomfortable.

"Do you have any more jackets like that?" Zhao Li Xin stared intently at the young man's thick cotton jacket. The young man smiled wryly, "Sir, you can wear my jacket." He took off his jacket and gave it to Zhao Li Xin. "Good." Zhao Li Xin nodded slightly then put on the young man's jacket after which he got into the car.

'Is that all? No 'thank you or you awsome or something?' The young man sighed in resignation. Sadly there's nothing he could do to a VIP like Zhao Li Xin.

The young man closed the door carefully, then got into the driver's seat like a good driver. The young man drove at a moderate speed, not too fast or too slow in order to make Zhao Li Xin comfortable. However, Zhao Li Xin did not feel the same way. "Drive faster," Zhao Li Xin give order in cold monotone voice. "Yes, sir!" the young man replied, then stepped on the gas and the car sped away.

Zhao Li Xin check his phone then try to called lory but this time he was answer by female robotic voice saying "The number you have been calling cannot be reached, please try again" Zhao Li Xin's face tensed, he could feel fear churning in his stomach. He was sure something serious must have happened that made his phone unreachable.

He propped his chin on his fist as he stared blankly out the window. At first glance he seemed absent-minded, but if you look closely, his knuckles were white and his entire body was tense like a pulled string.

"Drive faster" Zhao Li xin growl like a Beast.

"YES SIR!" the alarm in his head sudenly rang, he immediately increased his speed, he didn't care if he was caught for speeding, but who cares, he felt his survival was on the line!

"Faster!" Zhao Li Xin hissed under his breath.

"Y - YES!" the man stuttered, deep down he cried inside 'I want to go home!'
