Wei Zu Tian was surprised to see the wings behind Lory's back. He wondered if it was an armament creation, a divine weapon, or something else, meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin's expression was etched with worry but he had to trust Lory's decision other than Girsha to be with him. him so he should be fine if he doesn't believe Girsha will give him time to contact them.

"That woman... is different" Wei Zu Tian suddenly said.

blazing flowers floated in Zhao Li Xin's palms as he gives Wei Zu Tian cold eyes, "She's one of a kind and you don't deserve him...none of us are but he choose me" the flames in his flames slowly formed golden chrysanthemums and in an instant, the petals spread out and charged towards Wei Zu Tian.

Wei Zu Tian jumped backward into the air and then released his energy to form a whirling wind around him to dispel Zhao Li Xin's flower petal vicious attack but Zhao Li Xin didn't stop there he stomped his foot then lunged toward Wei Zu Tian, ??their palm and fist collide once more.

Although Lory could feel Zhao Li Xin's strength from afar, she stopped her flight then looked back for a moment then took a deep breath, and continued her flight towards the tower then Lory saw Lao Min Na standing on the ledge of a fluttering white robe as the wind blew along with her long jet black hair, Lao Min Na's deep red eyes staring at Lory were cold and empty.

Lory was unfazed she landed on the same ledge not far from Lao Min Na, her white wings spread majestically behind her making her look like a real goddess from heaven.

The thought that came to Lao Min Na was 'this world is so unfair'

"It's been a long time Lao Min Na" Lory said calmly.

Lao Min Na looked at him glumly, "It's been quite a while, how are you, princess?"

Lao Min Na's sarcastic sign didn't offend him, "I'm fine, can you see? I wish I could tell the same about you. Lory's eyes traced Lao Min Na's figure and sneered, "Rebirth huh? I want to know what you have sacrificed to get a second chance at life even though in the end you are doomed in endless pain for eternity" Lory's expression was a mixture of curiosity and pity because no one knows better what it's like under Lazarus' claws, the madness he inflicted to her, and the despair she felt even with Girsha's help it was still amazing how she managed to survived that long.

"Seems like you know" Lao Min Na was only surprised for a moment before her face returned to normal.

"I know it takes more than sacrificing your love one to return a clock, not to mention the taboos surrounding it that make this act become nothing more than a myth, so you can imagine how shocked I was when I heard it, but what makes me shocked even more is why Lazarus agree to help you?" Lory's expression gradually harden, and concern exuded from her voice.

Lao Min Na's eyes went wide for a moment then suddenly she burst out laughing, she laughed so hard her waist bent and she held her stomach while laughing out loud, Lory watched her with a frown even so she remained alert.

It took a while for Lao Min Na to finally control her laughter, she covered her mouth with the back of her palm then she turned to look at her with those bloody red eyes.

"You had no idea, don't you?" Lao Min Na wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes from laughing too much.

"Do you remember how you put a curse on your own soul so that Lazarus couldn't have your soul, you even played a trick to trap Lazarus into the oblivion because you knew once you were gone it would be your brother's turn as the last descendant of Lucient, and you couldn't let Lazarus hurt your brother, but what you didn't expect is Lazarus managed to escape into this world however he was hurt badly, luckily he found an abandoned spatial ring and he resides within it" Lao Min Na's smile was almost innocent if not her red eyes that glowed viciously.

"Lazarus shares quite a lot with you, huh?" Lory squints her eyes suspiciously.

Lao Min Na shrugged, "The Demon is bored so sometimes he gets chatty besides nothing will change by sharing his vile thoughts with me"

"So, that's how you find Lazarus?" Lory probes further,

Lao Min Na cast her eyes to the distance not much could be read on her face as she has lost touch with human feelings, though some feelings she could still remember however it felt far and away like people feel when they see the paintings of their youth

"It is a voice in the dark" Lao Min Na muttered, "This is a temptation for the weak heart and I am at my weakest point… no, I have always been a weak woman, there is nothing I can do but cry and cry all day long….pathetic" she gave herself a disdainful smile, but then her head snapped at Lory, "You don't know how it feels to be betrayed by your own family, your lover, what it's like to be insulted, humiliated, ridiculed by everyone around you and they treat you worse than a dog wild!" she shouted in a hoarse voice filled with deep anger.

Lory kept silent deliberately to let Lao Min Na vent her anger, then Lory said "So you made a deal with Lazarus to turn your time around and reward you with…this talent?" her mouth formed a grim line.

"This is a win-win solution," Lao Min Na gives a sardonic smile, "My sacrifice helped Lazarus recover some of her strength as a return he fulfills my wish," Lao Min Na open her arms then she smiled widely without any hint of remorse shown on her face.

But Lory didn't care about that because something more important dawned into her mind "In other words, you were the one who woke Lazarus?! Don't you know what he can do to this world, what he can do to you and all of that human souls? DO YOU NOT REALIZE WHAT YOU"VE DONE?!" Lory's voice rose, and for the first time in a long time, she lost his composure in front of her enemy.

Lao Min Na beamed with a pleasant expression seeing Lory's reaction "We all have a wish Your Highness, you should know better than anyone how far we will go in fulfilling our wish, didn't you risk everyone's life just to save one life you loved so dearly, have you forget the pain you inflicted to everyone around you, has it never crossed your mind how your brother lived his life after you've gone, how much suffering he had to go through as a lone survivor of his family?" Lao Min Na's face flushed with excitement as she watched guilt and remorse reflected in Lory's purple eyes.

Lory's face grimaced in pain she was actually scared to think about how Lucas lived after he watched her disappear before his eyes, she wonder if Lucas drowned in guilt for what happened, was he blaming himself, or maybe he blaming her instead? Lory knew saving Lucas from his cruel fate was not necessarily for a noble reason, but her own selfish desire because she was afraid to live alone without his father and brother's existance, maybe she didn't want to bear the burden of being the last Lucient descendant in the world.

Even though in the end she is not with her brother but at least she knows he is living well in her old world while leading his kingdom together with his brothers, therefore Lory is able to comfort herself by saying she did it for the greater good even though she knows in the back of her head that's not entirely true.

Lory clenched her fists as Lao Min Na laughed as she watch Lory immersed in her turmoil thoughts then Lao Min Na walked towards Lory, her movements were calm and graceful as she approached, her red lips curled into a scary smile then she hissed, "Now that you see princess, we're not so different after all, this hell not only reserved for me"

Lory's purple eyes suddenly shone and icicles fell from the sky onto Lao Min Na's head but he managed to dodge the attack and jumped into the air, he flipped in the air and then landed smoothly with the same wicked smile plastered on his face.

Lao Min Na wiggled her index finger "Tsk-tsk don't be so angry Your Highness, don't you want to know everything I know, isn't that why you came to me?" Lao Min Na's gaze challenged her.

Lory closed her eyes while swallowing the ball of anger that welled up inside her as soon as he opened his eyes, his face calmed down again. Lao Min Na tilted her head but she had to praise Lory's mental fortitude.

"Tell me everything," Lory said simply.

Lao Min Na's face beamed with amusement, she clapped her hands excitedly, "Where do I begin... Oh yeah, did you know that this world is destined to be doomed, not because of you, me, or Lazarus but because of your man, Zhao Li Xin"

Lory fell silent, she narrow her eyes in disbelief, Lory bore her gaze at Lao Min Na to see if she was telling the truth.

'This chapter is updated by N o v elBin.cᴏm',

Lao Min Na laughed "You don't believe me right, I also didn't believe it when Lazarus told me but then he told me to tell you so who knows if he was telling the truth or not?" Lao Min Na shrugged nonchalantly as if it was nothing.

"But then again, was it so hard to believe considering how Zhao Li Xin was?" Lao Min Na twirled her hair with her fingers as she reminisced about the old Zhao Li Xin in her previous life, a ruthless man who turned the entire Nan Jing city into a sea of ??fire, even to this day she could hear the panic cried from the citizens of Nan Jing city as the entire city was engulfed in flames.

"You know what other nicknames they gave your husband?"

Lory didn't answer it's still hard imagining Zhao Li Xin hurt so many innocent people, she wanted to say it couldn't happen but when imagining how Zhao Li Xin was tortured by the cold poison that gnawed within him for years plus the trauma of his childhood being abused by everyone in the imperial palace so it wasn't impossible for Zhao Li Xin's emotions were eventually spiral out of control.

How could a prideful man like Zhao Li Xin let himself be devoured bit by bit by the cold poison, meanwhile his enemies remained lived and well, and not only the Jiang Wei kingdom there also the other sect including Wei Zu Tian, she could only imagine how desperate Zhao Li Xin was to get his revenge while being pressed by time.

Lao Min Na then continues, "They called him the Fire Demon"
