Zhao Li Xin just got news from one of his King's Palace Jin Hao, he is the King of white Dragon Palace, he is the most talented alchemist in his generation he told him that the cold poison he had is not given to him when he was seven to eight years old, the poison given to him much early on perhaps since he was a baby.

It's given to him little by little until he was eight years old at that time the poison already seeps to his organs and bones, it was a miracle he could reach twenty years old. Whoever gives him this poisoned wants to make him die slowly in agony, Ying Xi Lu matches this description but cold poison is hard to come by even for someone from the Ying Clan.

No one in this continent who can concoct this type of poison even the formula how to created the poisoned had long gone, that's why Zhao Li Xin assured someone strong is behind Ying Xi Lu.

"Um, what do you mean?" Ying Xi Lu tries to deny, but her tremble hands betray her words.

Zhao Li Xin becoming impatient, he takes out grey stone from his sleeve "This is the bloodstones, I want to know if I really your Son or not" after he said that someone grabs Ying Xi Lu hands and cut her finger a little bit, Ying Xi Lu yelp. Zhao Li Xin calmly approach Ying Xi Lu and put her bleeding finger above the bloodstones, after her blood drip on the stones Zhao Li Xin cut his finger he drips his blood on the stones when their blood cannot merge Zhao Li Xin sneer.

"Turns out I'm really not your Son" he chuckles, he doesn't know should he laugh or cry about it.

His words stunned the emperor "Ying Xi Lu, it's that true?" the emperor words shaken by anger, he angry because he has no connection with Zhao Li Xin, no matter how bad their relationship is.

if Zhao Li Xin carries the same blood as him he knew he still can take advantage of this but if Zhao Li Xin is not his Son's, he won't get anything.

Ying Xi Lu face become white as sheet "I don't know…."

"You still want to denied, the proof is here, what else you want to say!!!" the emperor throw a cup at her. He's so angry his plan ruined because of his useless Royal consort.

"I…I don't know, she doesn't tell me anything….." she stumbles on the floor, the emperor never treated her this bad even after he accused her killed his favorite concubines.

Zhao Li Xin sighs, he got bored watching the two people who supposed to be his parents, luckly they're not. Zhao Li Xin raises from his sits his grandiose aura suppressed the Emperor and Royal consort Ying. He stared at her with an indifferent look "Tell me from the beginning…." His words calm but fill with threat, he had no time for this, he miss his little savior at the underground Palace, his mood is not so good today.

Ying Xi Lu bites her lips with grieve, he scared with that man but she scared with Zhao Li Xin more, after he knew she's not his Mother what stops him from killing her right now.

Ying Xi Lu told Zhao Li Xin that night she was staying at Royal summer palace outside Nan Jing City, at that time she was devastated with The Emperor relationship with Jiang Ju Zi, she tried everything to get the Emperor attention including drug him with aphrodisiac and she was succeeded, but too bad his baby is frail since inside her womb, Ying Xi Lu tries his best to keep her baby including stay isolated inside the summer palace to make sure her and her baby save.

Sadly her baby died at labor, Ying Xi Lu mourns for her dead son but most of all she sad because she can use her child to get the emperor loved back to her, that night when she on the way home back to Royal palace she heard someone asking for help, Ying Xi Lu got curious she stops her carriage and order her maid to check who is it.

After a while the maid return telling her there's a woman with a newborn baby boy on the side of the road, at first she doesn't want to help her but he heard about the newborn baby she suddenly struck by a good idea (according to her). She got out of her carriage then she met with the most beautiful woman she had ever seen in her entire life.

The women said her name Sanguan Mu Yi, she begs her to save her son before she died she gives Ying Xi Lu red jade Placard with qilin engraved on it, the jade looks expensive even for her standard, she realize this woman is not simple, Ying Xi Lu want to take advantages from it she immediately agree but right after the beautiful woman died another woman appear, she looks very happy when she saw Sanguan Mu Yi is death but she become angry again when she saw the newborn baby, at first she wants to kill the baby but somehow she changed her mind, she can see greed in Yin Xi Lu eyes then she promised her to return her favor if she makes this child lives miserable, she give Ying Xi Lu cold poison to ruined the child future.

Ying Xi Lu knew the woman infront of her, is strong, wealthy, and crazy, she doesn't want to make mess with her, she just nodded her head, and that's how Zhao Li Xin become her Son. That crazy woman unexpectedly keep her promised after that the Ying Clan become more prosperous than before, but that also terrified Ying Xi Lu because that means that crazy woman is more powerful than she though.

"Where's the jade my Mother give you" Zhao Li Xin face unperturbed, as if that story got nothing to do with him.

"In my room…" Ying Xi Lu terrified stare by his empty cold eyes.

"Give it to me" his worth firm without compromised.

Ying Xi Lu order her eunuch to talk with her personal maids to brings the red jade, the personal maids delivered the red jade on her owned she not dare to lend it to someone else, she knew how precious this jade is. Zhao Li Xin raised his hand demand the jade, Ying Xi Lu personal maid glance at her master for approval, because Ying Xi Lu not reacted the maid take that as approval she gives the jade to Zhao Li Xin carefully.

Zhao Li Xin examined the red jade on his hands, the jade it's exquisite without any blemish the red color is rich and vibrant and the qilin engraved on it, perhaps its family symbol but no one in this Kingdom have this symbol so probably this coming from other country.

Zhao Li Xin secures the jade inside his spatial Ring, the Emperor green with envy when he saw Zhao Li Xin have spatial Ring but what can he say, Zhao Li Xin not even his child anymore and his hatred to Ying Xi Lu has escalated again. Zhao Li Xin did not care with them, he never feel parental loves from any of them, leaving them is something expected for him.

Zhao Li Xin feels weird because he doesn't feel sad, disappointed or anger after he knew his parents is not his real parents and his mother is dead, probably killed by someone, his hear feel numbs. He sighed deeply he never thinking too much about himself, he knew he is different from other people, some called him demon, some called him tyrant, some even call him monster, he never bother with that but after he met her he becomes worried, will she stay with him if she knew what kinda man he is, will she accept him, is she gonna hated him...

When Zhao Li Xin arrived at the underground palace the first person he looking for is Lory, Mong Yi told him she was near the water springs near her living quarters. Zhao Li Xin did not waste his time, he looks for her right away.

When Zhao Li Xin arrived at the water spring he found her sits on the ground, while cover herself with quilts he gaze to the ceiling while her pet play in the water, the scened is serene makes him forgot the trouble from the outside. He abruptly sits next to her on the ground, Lory surprised but she smile immedietly when she knew who sit next to her.

"You home…."she smiles warmly.

"Hmm…" he replied carelessly.

"Done with your work?" she asks

"It's done….." he said quietly.

Lory frown "What's the matter, something happening?" her worry eyes warmed his heart.

"My parents...are not my parents….." Zhao Li Xin rests his arms on his knee.

"What do you mean, are you adopted?" Lory's eyebrows furrow.

Zhao Li Xin stifles "Not for a good reasoned…"

"Oh…" Lory did not dare to ask for more, and Zhao Li Xin suddenly becomes quiet. She doesn't know what he's thinking behind those beautiful onyx eyes, maybe not even Zhao Li Xin himself understands what his thinking.
