After a few more fights then Lao Min Na got up to the stages, Lory watches Lao Min Na her eyes glint with excitement. She really curious how strong she is, Lory even stops eating she focuses her attention on the stage make a certain Lord feels gloomy again and intensified his hatred to Lao Min Na, poor Lao Min Na she had accidentally anger 'the Demon Lord' again.

Lao Min Na stand on the stages with calmed face she doesn't bother with the loud cheered from the audience, a moment later a young man raised to the stages he stares at Lao Min Na with ridiculed smile, everyone knows Lao Min Na only start cultivated a few years how far she could go, that's why no one takes highly of her and her accomplishment in the Black Forest only considered as beginner luck.

"Do you think she could win?" Lory sees Lao Min Na opponent have a sturdy physique while Lao Min Na physique is lean and delicate, but lory remembered for cultivator your body looks on the surface it doesn't matter, what matter is your Qi and how strong is your Qi is.

"Why don't you give up now, it will be a pity if I accidentally hurt your pretty face" the young man mock Lao Min Na

"Not, if I hurt your face first…..I take that as a favor for other people" she raised her eyebrows.

The young man's face turn red from anger and shammed, Lao Min Na just teasing him as 'ugly'. People burst to laugh when they hear Lao Min Na teasing the young man, she's right her opponent can't be said as handsome. The young man becomes more embarrassed when people laughing at him, no matter what he still just a teenager who still going through puberty.

"Ehh…..that's hurt….."Lory feels bad for the young man but it's his own fault, who told him to mock a girl.

"You!!!" the young Man point at Lao Min Na "Don't blame me for not being kind!!" then he strikes at Lao Min Na with powerful fist, Lao Min Na dodged to the side then she stomped the young man feet while the young man stunned she elbow his stomach, the young man pushes back a few steps, he rubbed his chest with grimace on his face. Lao Min Na sneered at him the young man feels he was humiliated, he gathers his Qi on his palm then he jumps forward.

Lao Min Na somersault swiftly, the young man missed and hits the stage floor with loud 'Bang' sounds leaving immense cracked on the floor, people horrified when they see the damaged if Lao Min Na too late to dodged that cracked would be happened on her body.

Lao Min Na's face remains placid she doesn't look scared at all, this time she strikes first in a second she released three strikes one of them successfully hits the young man's stomach make him roll backward.

Lao Min Na sees the opportunity she launch a few more hits to the young Man right to his 'ugly' faces, the poor young man painstakingly covers her face from Lao Min Na fist too bad the damage is already done.

"Wait….stop….stop…I…gi…" the young man barely finish his words when Lao Min Na kick him out from the stages, he hit the wall leaving the mark on the wall, the young man then slide to the ground slowly his 'ugly' face just turn uglier, people hissed when they saw how bad the young man wound is.

Lao Min Na becomes the winner, people were cheering at her. Lao Min Na glance at Lao Fei Yan who watching her among the spectator she can see anger, envy, and hate brimming in Lao Fei Yan eyes, Lao Min Na sneered at her at least the feeling between them is mutual. Meanwhile, Zhao Mu Fan watches her with complicated feeling, the Lao Min Na he used to know is nowhere to be seen that woman on the stages is like a stranger for him.

Lory watches everything that happened below then she takes a long exhales "Seems like she got everything she wants….."

"Is it…..?" Zhao Li Xin gazes at Lao Min Na with blank looks.

Lory tilted her head she doesn't understand what he means but he not asking further, Zhao Li Xin takes her out leaving the competition, she already sees what she want to see. Zhao Li Xin holds her hand while they walk out of the competition area, he taking her to sightsee and watching the crowd, he used to hate this overcrowd street but when he sees how bright her smiles are, the annoying feeling he had suddenly disappeared and her excitement also influence him.

Seeing Lao Min Na Zhao Li Xin remember himself before he met Lory, his heart filled with anger, disappointment, sadness and pained. Revenge is the only thing that keeps him going, he wants to punish his mother, father, brothers, and everyone who hurt him, he refuses to die not before he takes all of them to the grave with him. To do that he needs power, a great power like no one ever seen and he made it, it's a long and painful journey but he made it then he only focuses is how to save his life or how to prolong his life and by a miracle he prevail but then she came...…and everything changes.

He realize how cold, dark and empty his life was, what's the point to have wealth if he had no one to share and what power good for if he doesn't have anyone to protect, he still alone in his big Manor the same way he alone in his underground palace, his heart has turn numb and cold even if he wants to try to care to someone he just unable to but when he with her....it's feels different, he can explain it but it's definitely different.

"Did you feel cold?" Zhao Li Xin notices the snow is falling from the sky.

"Not really, your necklace amulet keeps me warmed" Lory reassured him.

"Let's find someplace warmed first" Zhao Li Xin led her to a small tea house, even though the place is small but it was clean and neat lory find this place cute and comfortable.

"This place is small, I hope you don't mind it" said Zhao Li Xin.

"What are you talking about, this place is cute, I like it!" Lory sees a small pink flower pot near the window.

The shopkeeper smiles happily when someone praised her shop, she notices these two customers are not commoner judging by noble air around them even when they wear modest robes. After Lory stay with Zhao Li Xin she let her guard down more and more eventually her old behavior returned including her Princess trait after all is hard to kill old habit and Zhao Li Xin...forget about him he doesn't know how to act in the first place accept being weak prince although is more like lazy prince than weak prince.

"Welcome to our little shop, young Miss and Young Master!" the shopkeeper is a young woman around thirty, why lory called her young because she not dared say thirty years old woman as old she remembered her friends at Hunter HQ, Audrina Colth. She remembered how angry she is when someone told her thirty is old and not just her perhaps all women in Hunter HQ were enraged after saw that Lory didn't dare talk about age in Hunter HQ even Fargo not dared to say anything.

"Oh, hello!" Lory replied with the same polite smiles "I would like warm tea but can you add sugar on it about two spoons, I know it's weird but can you do that…."

The shopkeeper stunned how polite lory is, mostly customer only nodded at her no one ever this polite to her "Yes, of course, young miss" her smiles grew wider "The evening is getting colder why don't young Miss try our egg drop soup"

Lory as a genuine foodie suddenly lit up "I never try it before, okay I order one…..Li Xin how about you?"

"I'm fine...…" he said with a monotone voice.

"Give one bowl soup then" Lory smiled brightly to the shopkeeper.

"Ah…..yes young Miss, right away" the shopkeeper left in hurry, she was stunned how different the temperament between male and female costumer, the female bright as a sun and the male dark as night. It is amazing they become a couple.

Lory watches the snowfall from the window, the snow falls to the ground softly without sounds, the small shop doesn't have many customers inside so it's quiet in here, lory see girsha perch on the window frame he also watching the snow she wondering if he misses his home as she does?

She could never have thought there would be another life for her after what happened that day, she thought it would be her end but then here she is stranded in a different world, it's lonely sometimes but it was peaceful so she not complain. But is this it…..could she maintain this peaceful life, can she still live as Luo Ri Yi the ordinary girl from a remote village.

She remembered Lucas that day when they were finished exploring the dungeon somewhere in the east, they stay in a small hotel in the nearest city that night they can't sleep then they talk about life and their future all night.

"What would you do if you are not princess?"

"I….don't know, food reporter probably.....eat a lot, travel a lot and get paid for that…"

"Yeah, that's not bad but I presume you will end up getting fat and get fired after a year"

"Shut up!!" Lory glare at him "How about you?"

"I will....make a band…"

"It's not boy's band isn't it" lory eyebrow furrow, there's a lot of cool boy's band out there but somehow she can't imagine her Brother to be one of them.

"No….no…..it's band with guitar, bass, and everything, hey, what wrong with Boy's band!!! I have the looks, and I can dance too!!"

"Ehh….no you can't…." Lory grimaces "And you lazy too….you sleep nine hours every day" she reminds his incompetence.

"Whatever….I'm gonna make a group band….and Fred would be the manager though" he already wants to throw the hard jobs to his subordinate.

"You still taking them!!"

"Of course!!" he nodded with obvious face "And you would manage the fanbase"

Lory pouts her Brother still make her work for him even in his mere imagination "Hell No!!" she quickly rejects the idea.

Lucas laugh when he heard her comment, at the end whatever life he chose he can't imagine his life without his friends and his sister, Lucas suddenly sigh then bitterly smiles "Too bad we still a prince…..and Princess" he bowed at Lory respectfully.

Lory teasingly smiled "Of course….." then she sighs "Is it so bad being a Prince"

"A Lucient Prince" he corrected it.

Lorry stifled "Yes, A Lucient Prince" she corrected herself "It's not like you can do what you want to do when everything set and done give the job to Fred and you can have fun…..at least for a while until Fred drag you back in"

"I wish everything can be that easy..." Lucas sigh.

"Why not..." Lory disagree

"We are 'Lucient' Lory, our life is never supposed to be easy" Then he stares at the distance, Lory didn't say anything she not agree or disagree with him maybe because she doesn't trust his word that day but at the end, her Brother is always wiser than her.

At the present Zhao Li Xin notice, she is in a daze again with the same lonely expression she used to make

"Ri Yi, what's wrong?" Zhao Li Xin calls her.

Lory awaked from her daze, she blinked her eyes then she smiled at Zhao Li Xin

"Nothing, I just enjoy the day..."
