Zhao Li Xin gritted his teeth, he burry his face on Lory's neck and g.r.o.a.n.e.d exasperatedly, while Lory patted the back of his head "Duty call!" she reminds him with giggles. Zhao Li Xin never had so much urged to burn the whole sanguan residence because of them they prey that already on his mouth have to spit out again.

Zhao Li Xin help her to sit up then fixed her dress then get rid of dry grasses on her wavy hair, he feel a bit guilty for being overboard, people say someone d.e.s.i.r.ed will get eased after a while they spend together as a couple but why it didn't work the same to him, the more time went by the harder he control himself in front of his wife.

Lory rub her wrist with her thumb instantly her appearance change to 'Luo Ri Yi' 

"Sanguan Jin Sheng might ask you about Sanguan Li Ye matters since he thought he knew you are Long Ming acquaintance. I hope I don't give you too much trouble" she worriedly said.

"I doubted it, is only a small matter, what can the old man do to me?" he smirked slightly then he helps Lory raised from the ground, he patted Lory skirt from dust and grass that stick on her skirt "Don't worry about anything, nothing is beyond this Lord ability," he said confidently, even though he sounds arrogant, but it was the truth.

"You came with Mong Yi and Girsha right?" 

"Yes, they were here, somewhere…" Lory swept her gaze at surrounding her.

"Good, don't go anywhere alone although the enemy looks quiet, we still need to be vigilant" he gives her serious warning since Lory tend to be reckless

Lory know what he meant, she nods her head obediently "I know…you should be more careful too, you are the one who is in demon lair "

"Yes, your highness" he bows his head in jest.

"Knock it off!" she hit his shoulder lightly, Zhao Li Xin chuckles as he grabs her hands from his shoulder "Wait for me, I will finish what I start it" he gives a teasing smile.

'You still think about that?' 

The words clearly show on Lory's face how could he not laugh "Is it bad? You all I have afterall" he said jokingly but sincerity apparent in his eyes. 

Lory had seen Zhao Li Xin smile so many time but it's rare for him to show this kind of smile, for a moment he looks vulnerable like a sandcastle that would crumble with a slight touch, all of a sudden she is taken aback, she suddenly recalled the day she met Zhao Li Xin for the first time, she found him lean on the tree trunk, alone and dying surrounded by his enemy corpses engulf with darkness.

This is the man who has everything with the flick of his fingers but at that time he was left all alone, he is so beautiful, so young…so pitiful, and when she knows who he was she can't help but remember Lucas 'Young and tragic' that's the words that came in her head, her heart aching for him even though she never knows him, that's why she takes a huge risk to save him.

"You are so beautiful like red spider lily flower, you know…" she blurts out her thought out of nowhere.

Zhao Li Xin tilts his head slightly, he already used to her sudden change of mind "No, I don't….Isn't the flower toxic?"

"Is it? I pluck the flower once though and it's fine….perhaps because I immuned with poison" Lory remember she saw that strange flower at the hill of the village where she was stranded the first time she came to this world when she left the real 'Luo Ri Yi' house to hunt an animal to show her gratitude because they sheltered her or perhaps they are too terrified to kick her out because her unique appearance, whatever reason she owed them, knowing they didn't eat meat for months Lory decide to hunt an animal at the forest who knows when she returns the village is swallowed by the earthquake.

Then she took 'Luo Ri Yi' identity and disguised herself as her for years until she met Zhao Li Xin.

"Thankfully you have healing ability, the flower is quite deathly so don't get too close with it" it sounds ironic because of how similar he is with the flower, he lost count of how many time Lory was hurt and ridiculed because of him, she even almost lost her life because of him, but he refuses to let her go, he can't.

Lory covers her mouth with both hands and giggling "My Bluebell flower is cursed and your flower is deathly, I think we are predestined to be together don't you think?"

Zhao Li Xin stunned for a second, ah, he forgets about that. He's gaze soften he raised his hand and tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear and he smiles "You are right…."

After he make sure that Lory left the sanguan Manor safe and well he came to the study room where Sanguan Jin Sheng has waiting for him, as always the old man is staring at his new painting on the desk in a jovial mood. 

Zhao Li Xin never understands people fascination towards painting, if he wants he can make dozens of painting like that in a day, what so good about and to be honest he like Lory drawing more.

Zhao Li Xin is a talented artist, painting, music, calligraphy, poetry even sculpture there's nothing he couldn't do and he is the master of those skills. However, because he lives in a violent environment he learned from a young aged to hide his real ability so he wouldn't instigate other people's jealousy.

Only his old master Tian Meng Ji and the four king palace including the Mong Ki and Mong Yi who know about his ability, all of them was awed and mesmerized by him but Jin Hao once said to him, although his technique immaculate and the result of his painting is beyond perfection, however, his painting is soulless, a little bit cold and empty just like his music – just like him.

Zhao Li Xin never understands what Jin hao means until he saw Lory's drawing, compare to his technique, proportion, and strokes Lory is far below him but her drawing is like a magnet you can't stop but drawn to it. When Lory drawing a landscape he could feel what lory feels when she draws the picture, is she feel free, thrilled, or even lonely.

And when Lory draws someone, Zhao Li Xin could guess the person character, what kinda people they are and what Lory feel towards the person in the painting is like she telling a story.

Lory used to draw the people that she knows in her world, maybe is the way for her to cope with her longing then she would share the story about them to Zhao Li Xin, her drawing is so vivid it feel like he literally met them in person.

Lory also draws the view of her city, the people, and the hustle and bustle around her also the vast field she saw during her adventure, she even draws a few beasts that she met, and she would explain everything with a cheerful expression.

She has fulfilled life, it short but she was very happy. Maybe that's why even after everything she had been through she never pities herself, she always said she has a blissful life.

"It's beautiful isn't it?" Sanguan Jin Sheng shows the painting to Zhao Li Xin proudly.

Zhao Li Xin paused for a second then perfunctorily said "Yes…"

Sanguan jin sheng didn't bother with Zhao Li Xin's half hearth comment, he takes that as a lack of education. Sanguan Jin sheng hang the new painting behind his desk as he says: "I heard your relationship with Bai Xue is getting better"

"It was okay," said Zhao Li Xin indifferently.

"You don't have to be shy, it's a good thing" he turns around and smiles like a dotting father.

'Do I look shy to you?'

Sanguan Jin Sheng thought Zhao Li Xin is too proud and embarrassed to admit it, he smirks inwardly because his plan runs smoothly, the only worry he got that he hope Bai Xue will not seriously in love with Zhao Li Xin if she does it would make his plan a bit complicated.

"How is your cultivation? It seems you still stuck at heavenly King level…" his eyebrows gradually furrow as he looks at Zhao Li Xin with concern "I will send advance grade pill to help you increased your cultivation" 

"Thank you…" Zhao Li Xin bows his head to pretend he is grateful.

"Good – good, you have to cultivated diligently so you can reach Wu Ci level" he stroke his beard in delight, he believed his generosity and encouragement will move his son.

"...."

"Oh there's good news, I already gather all the old maps, do you bring your map? let's put it all together" he feel jubilant he finally able to fulfill his long ambition.

Zhao Li Xin's hand flinch slightly under his wide sleeve, his eyes glint with excitement 'Finally' he thought, Zhao Li Xin was thrilled he finally able to collect the last piece of the map, soon he could free Lory from her curse.

"Come, let's put it all together" he beckoned Zhao Li Xin to his large wooden desk, there already three-piece of skin map on the table, Zhao Li Xin smirk inwardly, he thought he must give Bei Li Yan and Wu San Bo credit because the fake map looks very real.
