"Lory are you okay?" Yang Xi Ying ran towards Lory in a hurry followed by Girsha who flew over leisurely and then alighted on Lory's shoulder.

'Follow current novels ON N (ovelB in.)',

"I'm fine, be careful Xi Ying," Lory was more anxious seeing Yang Xi Ying walking briskly towards him even though it wasn't really a problem for cultivators like Yang Xi Ying but Lory can't help it.

"I know the Lesser-Demon stands no chance with you!" Ming Yue Yin's voice shrill with excitement.

Tao Bing Wen's face beams with admiration and his whole opinion about Lory has increased tenth fold once he sees Lory fight against the giant monster on her own.

Lory smiled embarrassedly seeing their amazed gazes, "Okay, but we have to get out of here before other creatures appear" Lory deliberately changed the subject.

"Oh right!" Yang Xi Ying suddenly clapped her hands, "I saw that there was some kind of painting but I forgot after Tao Bing Wen showed me the old parchment"

"What painting?" Ming Yue Yin was curious.

"Follow me!" Yang Xi Ying beckoned the three humans and one bird to quickly follow her.

They also followed Yang Xi Ying to the other side of the place then she raised the luminescent pearl at the side of the wall, then say: "Look!"

Ming Yue Yin and Tao Bing Wen also aimed their Luminescent pearls toward the wall that Yang Xi Ying pointed at, and Tao Bing Wen gasped when he realized that there was a collection of paintings plastered on the wall not far from where he had found a piece of parchment.

Unfortunately, most of the paintings have faded and been damaged with age, few are still recognizable but Lory and the others stare in awe at the paintings on the walls that hold so much of this forgotten world history.

"What exactly is this place?" Tao Bing Wen muttered under his breath.

'ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovelB(i)n. ᴄᴏᴍ',

"My guess is that this place used to be Emperor Lei Yu's palace but why it was built under a volcano I had no idea…" Ming Yue Yin couldn't understand why anyone would build a palace in such a terrible place.

"Maybe it's not supposed to be this way..." Lory swept her eyes to the area around her then continued with a heavy tone "What if something happened that make the whole palace burry under the volcano" Lory's purple eyes dimmed under her long eyelashes."

Ming Yue Yin's breath hitched as horror grew inside her. "Impossible! What kind of terrifying power could humans have to cause this?!" she didn't want to believe that someone could possess such catastrophic power.

"Power of the first King" Lory replied calmly, "You have seen my strength and you have seen Zhao Li Xin's strength but you have not seen our true strength" Lory's voice sounded heavy and solemn it was hinted with bitterness.

Ming Yue Yin's next words froze in her throat, she had indeed never seen Lory at her full strength even though she was given a chance to peek at Lory's past but she realized it was still too little to understand the power she had and the burden that come up with it.

"The massacre that was said on the old parchment, might be the cause of the destruction of this palace" Yang Xi Ying's voice broke the intense emotion among them "Could this have something to do with the empress?"

Yang Xi Ying directed the light of his luminescent pearl at the portrait of a woman who sat gracefully, unfortunately, her face is not clear due to the damage to the painting but from the scars left on the painting, it can be guessed how beautiful this woman was before.

Ming Yue Yin also remembered another important thing in the parchment "Oh yes I remember on the paper it was written that they forced Emperor Lei Yu to remove the empress and the emperor to step down from his throne, it seems that the beginning of their dissatisfaction was caused by the empress... for whatever reason "

the women exchanged confused looks not because they couldn't think of any reason on the contrary there are too many reasons for a woman not to be approved as empress.

"Maybe because she's a commoner?" Tao Bing Wen suddenly chimed in.

Lory and the others look at each other with their brows arching the same way.

"Well, that will be an obvious reason..." Ming Yue Yin who lived in the palace environment understood that very well.

Yang Xi Ying patted her cheeks while pondering for a second then add "Especially if Emperor Lei Yu's influential subordinates have already prepared a suitable candidate for the emperor, the presence of this commoner woman will surely invite dissatisfaction among Emperor Lei Yu's subordinates"

Ming Yue Yin folded her arms across her chest while shaking her head in disbelief "There's no way Emperor Lei Yu wouldn't have thought about this right, as a monarch he should have expected this to will be bad for him and his kingdom right?" as the empress of her kingdom Ming Yue Yin understands there are impassable limits as a ruler of a kingdom wherein she must take advantage and manipulate the situation to make things go her way otherwise she will not let Yuan Shao go for years to build his reputation in order to be qualified to marry the Empress and she would not use any means to delay her marriage in order to wait for Yuan Shao.

Everyone tacitly agreed with Ming Yue Yin that it was impossible for Emperor Lei Yu to act rashly which would result in not only harming himself but also the empress.

Lory also understood but something popped into her head as she tilted his head and muttered "What if he is like Zhao Li Xin?"

'',

Tao Bing Wen might not know Zhao Li Xin's actual behavior outside the rumors but it's not the same with Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Ying, soon they were all enlightened.

"Then he wouldn't give a Fuc*!" Ming Yue Yin said frankly and Yang Xi Ying only let out a long sigh.

True, no one was more overbearing and wilful than Zhao Li Xin maybe he was the only sect leader who dared to bring in a strange woman without any background from outside and then casually announced her as his wife without caring what everyone said.

Luckily Bei Li Yan and the others were eccentric enough that they didn't really care what Lory's background was as long as he didn't hurt Zhao Li Xin and could make the Old Master happy that even Jiang Jin Wei who had a slightly stiff personality was easily convinced by everyone that's why Lory received. in the Hey Shen sect without too much trouble.

However, a sect leader was not the same as an emperor who was responsible for the welfare of his millions of citizens which were hundreds of officials, nobles, commoners, and more.

After all sects and kingdoms are two different powers where a Kingdom was bigger and stronger but rigid because of the many interests of many people who influence each other while a sect can be smaller but elusive and affluent depending on the leader's behavior and Hei Shen sect is even more carefree than any normal sects.

"Well, it's not strange if Emperor Lei Yu's attitude and scary uncle are similar since they have the same bloodline," Ming Yue Yin said again.

"But I guess the seeds of dissatisfaction are already there and the existence of the empress is just the catalyst for everything that happened" Lory looked at the empress painting with pity she just realized how lucky she was to be accepted so easily in the Hei Shen sect they even still believe her after they knew her identity.

Yang Xi Ying looked at the small painting that was farthest away and he was curious and walked over to it, she blew away the dust that covered the painting and carefully wiped it with her sleeve soon a young face on the painting became clear.

"Hey look, I think this is Emperor Lei Yu's son?" Yang Xi Ying raised her voice abruptly.

Everyone quickly rushed to see what Yang Xi Ying had found and they saw a painting of a little boy in snow white clothes and long black hair that fell loosely on his shoulders, the boy's face was very pale with lips as red as a cherry and eyes as black as the abyss.

"What a beautiful kid" Ming Yue Yin muttered quietly.

"But his gaze is too cold for a child, don't you think?" Tao Bing Wen feels the chills on his spine when he stares at the boy's painting.

"Uhm, I agree with you" Yang Xi Ying subconsciously gulped as she felt the boy in the painting's gaze penetrate her.

"Wait a minute..." Lory's eyes widened as she gently push Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Ying away from the painting then Lory leaned closer to the painting "I think I see him before…"
