Yuan Shao let out a long sigh "what should we do with this?" he turn his head at the black robes man who remained indifferent.

"Do whatever you want" he said lazily.

​​

"Just send her back with all this…tribute, this is so disgusting even for my owned standard" Yuan Shao scoffed in disgusted, he doesn't want to involved with dirty matters like this.

Lao Min Na know that what waiting for her is another hell, Zhao Mu Fan might not forgive her for her failure to seduced Yuan Shao

"Please don't send me home, let me stay, I could be your slave, I will do anything you want, PLEASE!" Lao Min Na bangs her head on the floor repeatedly until her forehead bleed.

The sound of her banging her head surprised everyone in the room, but none of them pitty her especially the man with the black robes, the truth is no one sure if she even listening to her since his expression hide behind his mask, leaving only his cold gaze.

"I have no connection with this woman, but to you – more or less she still has relation with you isn't it Lord Long Ming," said Yuan Shao.

Lao Min Na was dumbfounded, who never heard about Long Ming from the Hei Shen sect, the mysterious power that dominates the world, even the emperor fear him however no one knows the identity of Long Ming, people only know that one day he suddenly appear and terrorize everyone who dares to block his way. Lao Min Na raises her head slightly as her curiosity pique.

"They all mean nothing to me," he said coldly, his dark empty eyes stare at Lo min Na as if she was nothing but an ant.

Lao Min Na knows this man is hard to please but she doesn't want to go back to that hell "PLEASE, have mercy, I will do anything!" she cried pitifully.

"Everything….hasn't you have nothing, to begin with – Miss Lao" his word is flat, and icy devoid of any pity or sympathy towards her.

Lao Min Na stares at the man called Long Ming with a confusing look, how could he know her name. Long Ming slowly take off his gold mask, the man has exquisite features, his refined jawline, his thin lips and beautiful pair of dark eyes make Lao Min Na stunned with awed this kind of perfection she only has seen it once and that man was Zhao Li Xin the Sixth Prince.

"Si…Sixth pri….prince" she's a stammer, but what scared him the most is how pale Zhao Li Xin skin is and how thin he is, he is still beautiful but he doesn't look like a human, his dark eyes become more apparent because his pale skin, he rose from his sit in slow motion in Lao Min Na eyes he looks very sick as if a single wind blow would make him crumble. His two other subordinated who stand behind him stare at Zhao Li Xin with a worried look.

"You know me, that means either I kill you or you prove you worth to me…" his icy voice gives shiver to her spine. Lao Min Na had seen many men, a lot of them is a cruel, greedy, heartless, ambitious, and cold murderer but no one can make her blood run cold like the man in front of her, it because she can't see anything in his eyes, no anger, no greed, no worry, no joy, completely nothing, is like facing a dark abyss.

Terror coursed to her veins, she is almost unable to speak "Ye….Yes, I...I do…anything"

Zhao Li Xin make eerie smiles "What if I want you to kill Zhao Mu Fan?" he raised his eyebrow.

"I…" Lao Min Na hesitant, people think after all that Zhao Mu Fan did to her she should loathe him to the bone isn't it, but the truth is even until now Lao Min Na still hold a strain of hope that one day he would change. As sad as it sounds she could never let him go completely.

Zhao Li Xin didn't look disappointed but instead, he laughed, the sound of his laugh make the hair on her neck stand up, then suddenly he coughs, and the coughs didn't stop for a while, the feminine man who acted flirtatiously before can't hide his worry and so Zhao Li Xin two subordinated but none of them dare to help him, they only staring at Zhao Li Xin anxiously.

He covers his mouth with his sleeves, then gradually the cough subsides, he back limply to his chair then wipe a trickle of blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Your cold poison is getting worst huh" Yuan Shao didn't worry about him, he only curious.

Zhao Li Xin waved his hand "I fear no death…" he clear his throat then soon after a man with white hair entered the room while carrying a tray with a hot ceramic bowl on top of it.

Only then Zhao Li Xin subordinated take a step to clear the table but no one dares to help him, it's dawned to her that Zhao Li Xin didn't like to be treated as a weakling that's why no one dares to help him with the coughing, he must be a very proud person and his people knows that.

Zhao Li Xin drinks his medicine, then his subordinated hand him a clean towel to wipe his mouth and hands. The man with white hair then check his pulse and his eyebrows knitted and then he let out a long heaved. Zhao Li Xin didn't care he retract his hand from the white man, his face looks a bit better after he drinks his medicine, it seems his illness is far more worst than she thought.

"I hope you don't die here, I can't explain how the sixth prince dies in my kingdom" Yuan Shao snickered. His mockery dampened Zhao Li Xin's subordinated expression but Yuan Shao feigns ignorance.

On the other hand, Zhao Li Xin didn't bother with Yuan Shao's poor jokes "I won't die before my enemies, I'll make sure I bring every single of them to hell with me" his vicious eyes glistening gives a little spark in his dull eyes.

"He won't die easily while I'm here," said the white-haired man with scowled.

Yuan Shao raised his chin "I hope that true because I still need you to fulfilled our agreement" he doesn't care about Long Ming health their relationship is business only beside someone like Zhao Li Xin unable to make a friendly connection with anyone, even to his subordinated he like to keep comfortable distance towards them so one can imagine how indifferent he is with other people other than his close subordinate.

One of the corners of his mouth lifted faintly, he shifts his glance at Lao Min Na again "So what is your decision and doesn't play pity card on me, you see I 'm not a patient man" he warns Lao Min Na who was kneeling on the floor with her head down. His words are flat and indifferent not once he shows a little sympathy or pity on her, his eyes as cold as glacier she make her feel worthless but that just how she is right now.

Lao Min Na gritted her teeth she doesn't know what to do, the choice left to her is whether she dies in Zhao Li Xin hand or Zhao Mu Fan hand, at the end she still dies when she thinks about this she sneers at herself, doesn't she try to kill herself multiple times before to the point she was choked with a drug to control her and know when death feel so close to her she suddenly hesitant.

She clenched her fist "What do you want me to do, an addict like me can't kill a cultivator like him, I might get killed when I got home today"

It was the red robes man with a feminine face who approach her "Don't worry about that" he winked at her.

When Lao Min Na got home she told Zhao Mu Fan that yuan Shao agrees to help him but he can't do it openly since interfering with other kingdom matter is not good, in return, Yuan Shao asked the west territory that belong to the Jiang Wei Kingdom, Zhao Mu fan is delighted he doesn't mind giving a small portion of his kingdom if that means he can sit on the dragon throne, and using Yuan Shao name Zhao Mu Fan stopped given Lao Min Na to other men as a consideration that Yuan Shao give a little value towards her, for a while, Lao Min Na is relieved from her promiscuous duty.

Since then Lao Min Na report everything she knows about Zhao Mu fan activity to Bei li Yan through a maid that was planted in Zhao Mu Fan manor, and the white man called Jin Hao cure her addiction only then she realizes how powerful Zhao Li Xin and no prince could match him, it was that day that she envy and admire Zhao Li Xin from the dept of her heart.

After three months not only Bei Li Yan and Jin Hao she also knew about Wu san Bo and Jiang Jin Wei, the more she knows about Zhao Li Xin the more she admires him maybe it also at that time that admiration change into something else but she did not dare to think about that because she knew how dirty she is, she not even worthy to carry Zhao Li Xin shoes moreover stand beside him, it was an impossible dream.

Then the scandal about Zhao Mu Fan and Ying Xuan Xie spread to the whole city, it was a serious scandal because Ying Xuan Xie is Zhao Qin Feng fiancée and she is also from the Ying clan, Zhao Mu fan try to control the rumors but somehow all his effort is futile.

The truth is Zhao mu fan only met with Ying Xuan Xie three times but at that time he doesn't know who she is but nothing serious happened, Zhao Mu Fan like pretty girls so he approaches her casually and flirts a little bit, he just gives her a small lantern at the lantern festival, and that's it but the problem is the story is twisted by someone and many people witness the scene so is hard for Zhao Mu Fan to deny it.

fake or not it brings shammed to Zhao Qin Feng's face, how could he live with it since then the tension between Zhao Qin Feng and Zhao Mu Fan increasing and Zhao Yi Chen use this opportunity to stir things up and hope they will kill each other eventually. As matter of fact, he is not the only one who thinks that way.

while people busy scheming at each other Lao Min Na wake up with a terrible headache, everything seems spinning around her she can't hold it anymore she vomits everything she eats last night on the floor, her maidservants become panic they though she got food poisoning or something when the physician check her condition he announce the inexplicable news at her.

"Congratulation madam, you are pregnant"
