The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 990 New Allies II

Meanwhile, within the manor, Tao Ji Fang stared at the black obsidian pendant with golden flames in his palm. He knew for sure he didn't buy this pendant but somehow it got mixed up with the things he just bought but the problem was he knew which sect had this crest, that sect was none other than Hei Shen.

So how can Hei Shen slip this pendant into her belongings unless the shop has ties to the Hei Shen sect, then their purpose of slipping this pendant into her hand means as an invitation, and only one person is allowed to use the golden fire emblem and that person is Long Ming.

Tao Ji Fang's face became tense he didn't expect Long Ming would be able to sneak right under the Heaven's Gate Sect's nose, who would have thought someone could toy with Wei Zu Tian in his own territory but why did Long Ming show himself to him? did that mean he was already under the supervision of the Hei Shen sect, but why?

Tao Ji Fang didn't know how many Hei Shen people have watched over him right now and for how long? that gloomy thought immediately sent chills down his spine, Tao Ji Fang knew he had no choice but to accept the invitation.

Tao Ji Fang clenched the pendant tightly as he rested his back on the chair tiredly, unlike other ignorant sects in the Hwang Wu continent, he never doubted Long Ming's strength just because he was from the Xing Fang Continent which was supposed to be weaker than the Hwang Wu continent.

A long time ago he had accidentally met Zhao Li Xin back then when Long Ming was very young probably in his mid-teens.

Back then there was a woman from a quite influential family who was infatuated with Long Ming and insisted to marry him, the woman behave like she was possessed she used various means to gain Long Ming's attention but to no avail, even the family who helped her back then suffered a lot at the hands of Long Ming but that woman still refused to accept her lost then one day in front of many people she accused Long Ming has sullied her and promised to marry her but Long Ming lied he even hurt her family but she will forgive Long Ming as long as he promised to take responsibility of what he has done.

The woman thought that pressuring Long Ming in front of the crowd would make him submit, after all, everyone treated their reputation more than their life so she was confident, however, Long Ming was not like anyone else.

Tao Ji Fang still remembered Long Ming's voice when he asked the woman.

'This all happened because you fell in love with me, at first sight, right?' his lips curl into an evil smile although he looks beautiful like a deity from the painting, however, his gaze was freezing cold.

The woman was mesmerized she didn't realize the danger in front of her so she nodded happily 'Yeah, I can't forget you since I looked at you the first time!' Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes sparkled with love.

Obviously the young woman was in love but Long Ming's black eyes gradually darken like a bottomless abyss 'This is all because of your eyes right?' he said in an emotionless tone.

"Well....yes" The woman could feel the alarm ringing inside his head telling her to run away but her infatuation make her ignore the sound inside her head as she answered him in hopes that he would finally reciprocate her feelings.

It was at that moment that he saw Long Ming gouging the woman's eyes, immediately a deafening scream resounds, and blood spurted scattered on the air like red petals, everyone watched the scene in absolute horror, no one expected such a young man would be so cruel, especially to a young beautiful woman. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

The woman screamed and rolled to the ground with her face covered in blood, her family tried to help the girl while shouting at Long Ming, cursing and blaming him but Long Ming's gaze at that time make his gut-churning.

Long Ming's expression was dead flat, no anger or satisfaction could show on his face he just stared at his bloody fingers then suddenly he scoffed in disgust and threw away the eyeballs to the grounds as if it was garbage 'Disgusting' he snorts in contempt.

Long Ming's subordinate quickly gives him a clean handkerchief to wipe his hands and then as if nothing he turns around and walks away at a calm pace.

For someone to be so cruel at a young age Tao Ji Fang can only imagine what Long Ming become when he got older and how dangerous he could be, but now this scary man wants to meet him so how could he not be worry. Tao Ji Fang took a deep breath he felt rather pathetic, he was already at last forties but he was anxious by a man who is much younger than him he felt he let down his ancestor name's.

Then something dawned on him, no wonder His Son is a bit of a coward he might get it from him but of course, his son might get it too much, Tao Ji Fang shook his head then he got up from his chair then walked straight to the door when he opened the door he stumbled with Yang Zhou who wanted to knock on the door.

"Master, are you going somewhere?" Zhou was surprised Tao Ji Fang looked like he was about to leave his room even though it was so late.

"Ah, yes, there is someone I need to meet" Tao Ji Fang tries to brush it off.

Yang Zhou looked at Tao Ji Fang with a curious face, it was unusual for Tao Ji Fang to act this mysterious, "May I know who that person is?" as Tao Ji Fang's right-hand man it was his duty to care for his master's safety.

Tao Ji Fang knew he wouldn't be able to get rid of Tao Ji Fang easily given Yang Zhou's high loyalty to him. Tao Ji Fang took a deep breath and then walked to the center of the courtyard in front of his room, he clasped his hands behind his back and then looked up using his qi he shouted, "I agree to accept your master's invitation, show me the way!" the wind that carries his powerful voice shook the tree branches until some of the leaves fell to the ground.

Yang Zhou was taken aback, he swept his gaze around him warily but he didn't feel anyone's presence, he thought that something might be wrong with his master then suddenly a shadow figure jumped from the darkness of the night and landed quietly.

Yang Zhou was shocked to see a familiar figure appear before him, the man was Mong Ki who was dressed in all black he then cupped his hands politely "You made a wise decision Master Tao, please come follow me" although his words were polite, however, his presence gave off unbearable intimidation.

"You are lady Luo's servant?!" Yang Zhou was still in shock.

"Yes," Mong Ki answered briefly.

"Did you come here on your madam's orders?" Yang Zhou asked.

Mong Ki replies "No, I came here because of my Lord's command?"

"Your master? Does that mean Master Li Jin?" Yang Zhou had a slight impression of Zhao Li Xin at that time as he thought Zhao Li Xin was just a sick person.

Mong Ki's face was still expressionless, he didn't mind answering Yang Zhou's question because Zhao Li Xin's goal was to ask Tao Ji Fang to come as a friend, not an enemy so it was fine to give a little explanation.

"No, not him but my real master," said Mong Ki.

Yang Zhou still wanted to ask but Tao Ji Fang raised his hand abruptly "let's not make your Master wait too long" he said to Mong Ki.

Yang Zhou stands and he was stupefied, would his master go alone? Yang Zhou quickly chassed Tao Ji Fang, "Master, I'm coming with you!"

Tao Ji Fang shook his head "No, even five people like you won't make a difference" Tao Ji Fang didn't mean to underestimate Yang Zhou's abilities but he wanted Yang Zhou to understand that his efforts would be in vain and he hoped that Yang Zhou would not follow him because if something happened To him, Tao Ji Fang didn't know who he should entrust his stupid son to.

But Yang Zhou still persisted, "Master, you can't go alone!"

"You...!" Tao Ji Fang was annoyed with Tao Ji Fang's stubbornness, although Yang Zhou's loyalty to him was admirable however, sometimes it could also be annoying.

"Let your subordinates come, my Lord just wants to talk to you" Mong Ki reassured them but then he smirked, "Besides if my Lord really wants to hurt you, there's nothing you can do anyway…" Mong Ki mocked them.

"Hey, you!" Yang Zhou's anger flared, he almost jumped at Mong Ki but Tao Ji Fang quickly pulled him back.

"Don't..!" Tao Ji Fang gave Yang Zhou a stern warning.

Meanwhile, Mong Ki chuckled lightly and then casually jumped over the fence wall without care.

"Master he…" Yang Zhou was irritated by Mong Ki's blatant threat, who does he think he is!

"Ssh, he's Long Ming's subordinate, watch your attitude!" Tao Ji Fang rebuked him firmly. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

Only then did Yang Zhou gape, "Long Ming? Long Ming of the Hei Shen sect? why is he here? why would he want to meet you?" Yang Zhou frantically showered Tao Jin Fang with questions.

Tao Ji Fang shook his head without giving an explanation as he also didn't know what Long Ming wanted from him "Let's follow him!" he sighed.

"Wait Master, is it okay to follow him? what if Hei Shen wants to harm you?" Yang Zhou said worriedly.

"Then what do you want me to do? to run away?" he scoffed then he tapped Yang Zhou's shoulder and say: "There's no point in running away since Hei Shen already lay their eyes on us"
