"Wha-?"

In a certain alley among the numerous districts of the Chang Empire, a slender figure was walking while completely wrapped up in black clothes was suddenly attacked and swiftly pulled further deeper into the less populated area without any warning.

And despite the fact that some people were able to witness such a situation, all of them didn't plan to deal with it or even trying to offer some of their help as they calmly returned their gaze back to what they have been doing during the middle of the night.

After all, crime, unruly or evil deed usually happened anywhere, especially when sinister, immoral and harmful situations usually occurred in one of the numerous lawless parts of the Chang Capital where the patrol officials were unable to fully watch and protect.

So ignoring or disregarding such a situation was the norm for most of the people, unless, the people who saw it were a righteous person or just tend to mix into the trouble without thinking about the consequences of their actions.

"Oh my~ We got a young and handsome man this time! Madam will be happy tonight!"

"Come on, let's go."

Soon, the three suspicious people wrapped in black cloaks around their bodies have swiftly carried the unconscious slender young man away with great familiarity as they quietly and skillfully left without leaving any single evidence of what just happened or for people to easily follow.

And this entirely proves that attacking and capturing people during the night time wasn't their first time doing it.

While hidden in the shadow, another slender figure of a man has just silently stood there and watched as the four-figures completely disappeared from the alley.

"... have fun."

Shao Cheng that has been watching the entire ordeal was gently smiling underneath his black-masked while the whole time his fake black eye color remains cold and indifferent before finally turning around and leaving the place with a flick of his black long sleeves.

As for what just happened, the young man that was taken away before by the three suspicious people was Ma Ji, the person that has been ranting in the hidden place and will be undergoing the same situation of what he planned for Dalle to experience.

Didn't Ma Jin want Dalle to serve a beautiful older woman?

So, Shao Cheng has just let Ma Ji be taken away by one of the people he knows on his memories that tend to have a perverted hobby that usually hides in the dark, which in the Chang Capital, unfortunately, has a lot of people that exist.

And for the person that Shao Cheng has found for Ma Ji to serve is a certain beautiful widow of an aristocrat family that was higher in rank than the Ma family and has the complete control and power in her hand so when everything is over the young man wouldn't be able to do anything.

After all, in this world, the strong will always prevail, especially to an individual that has a certain power, authority, and influence in their hands, which will be harder to deal with no matter how unfair everything is.

As for why Shao Cheng knows such person, well, let just say that such people were far harder to forget while his beautiful appearance tends to attract trouble, especially when regarding those brave, daring, courageous, or just plain stupid people that couldn't be reason with.

Fortunately, Shao Cheng was able to use his incomplete experimental skill on the sudden situation, in which Ma Ji would only remember that he was on his way to Ma Suyin's hidden place, only for him to abruptly got attack and captured miserably before he arrives.

Although the skill Shao Cheng has been experimenting with wasn't perfect, however, it is already showing it great use, so he will definitely continue to experiment more whenever he got the time.

Soon, Shao Cheng has finally arrived in the place that Dalle was sent into before meeting one of the hidden guards that were specifically arranged to guard and watched over Dalle's well being while Dai has been known as dead by the Ma Family.

After all, there is no way that Shao Cheng wouldn't prepare any protection for Dalle safety or when something unexpected has suddenly occur, such as Ma Ji situation.

"What is Dalle's order?"

Rather than hurrying up to rescue the young boy that was sent to serve a person, Shao Cheng has remained standing outside the residence without any hint of panic or flustered emotion while silently staring in a certain part of the residence where the young boy was taken away.

"My lord, young Dalle has only asked us to take the prepared substitute along and ordering us to just watch the entire situation unless we are called to help him out."

Shao Cheng has calmly nodded his head while a certain light quickly flashes on his eyes, the little devil will always be the little devil despite being inexperienced and young.

Rather than becoming panic, flustered and even asking for help at the sudden situation he found himself with, the young boy seemed to have decided to make a slight change of their planned they have already talked before because of the sudden situation.

Even without hearing about the sudden new planned that the young boy was thinking of doing, Shao Cheng could already figure out what it will all be about, after all, he didn't just leave Dalle hidden guards around to protect him in the dark.

After gently caressing his sleeves for a few more minutes, Shao Cheng has finally decided to infiltrate inside the residence with great ease before arriving at the place where Dalle was taken away.

Soon, Shao Cheng feet has lightly landed in the cold ground along with a few strands of his hair that wasn't tightly bound to gently sway in the air while the loud noise filled with utter anger and overwhelming maliciousness resound out at the eerily quiet place.

It belongs to the voice of a beautiful woman that supposed to sound pleasant in a normal situation, however, the unbridled rage, hostility, and violent upon it has caused the supposed charm to completely disappear.

Particularly when it was also followed by the numerous harsh sound of a weapon moving in quick succession and hitting a person's body base by the sound of it.

"Damn! Keep screaming!"

Although there is obvious ruthless violence that was happening inside the room, Shao Cheng has remained indifferent and cold before taking a calm step forward while simply glancing at the unresponsive servants that were standing outside the room.

And as soon as Shao Cheng was close to the door, one of the hidden guards that have come inside the residence in order to protect Dalle well being has quickly appeared and opened the door without any order from him.

After entering the noisy room, the first thing that Shao Cheng saw was the figure of the young boy casually sitting on a comfortable chair with a rather dark expression on his delicate face while indifferently watching the violent abuse of a beautiful woman ruthlessly whipping an unconscious figure of a young boy completely covered in blood.

"Master!"

And Shao Cheng has just narrowed his eyes at the bloody scene for a few seconds before once more turning his attention at the young boy that has quickly stood up from the chair and trotting toward him with a joyful smile on his face before quickly bowing respectfully, looking entirely adorable and harmless.

Although the bloody scene happening just a few distances away completely show that this young boy isn't harmless and innocent as he looks, after all, the one who made the beautiful woman in a frenzy mode to the point of unable to notice everything around her and only focusing in attacking the unconscious figure was this person.

"The madness drug?"

"Yes Master, after a quick observation of the woman, the madness drug is the right one to use among the numerous drugs that you have given me before."

Madness drugs greatly work for people that tend to have a violent tendency or urge to act in a brutal manner, making an individual become overwhelmingly excited or angry to the point of losing reason that tends to ignore everything around them besides the target.

"Good Job."

Shao Cheng has raised his hand to pat Dalle head causing a shade of pink to appear in the young boy pale cheeks which he just glances for a seconds before giving one more pat.

Although their impression with each other was honestly bad, threatening, and dreadful, where it was a situation that they even target each other lives but it doesn't change the fact that in this new life after the vow was made wouldn't cause them to be enemies with each other any longer.

"Master, will the slight change in planned be a problem?"

"No."

In Shao Cheng planned was that Dalle will die later on while using a prepared substitute to show as evidence in order to completely cut off the connection he has to the Ma Family but because of Ma Ji unexpected actions, Dalle dying today is one of the numerous correct actions to take.

Well, it is also good for Dalle to disappear tonight since after what happen to the young man today, there is a high chance that the mentally imbalance Ma Ji will take out all of his dark emotions to Dalle.

So Shao Cheng has calmly accepted the entire situation before glancing at the unresponsive young boy he found for Dalle to use as a dead body without any single hint of emotion and remorse emerging within him, even when he notices that there weren't any intact skins on the young boy body.

Particularly the face that was completely disfigured by the woman ruthless and frenzy attack, which no one will be capable enough to completely heal it.

There is a time that Shao Cheng has to use people in a cold-blooded manner for his own purpose even if they are innocent, and this is one of them.

"Come, let's go."

"Yes, Master."

For the rest of the night, Shao Cheng will be busy dealing with the fake death of Dalle, completely making sure that no evidence will be left behind.

While in a certain place, a person wearing a crimson robe was standing still in a courtyard with his head lower down while a piece of paper was tightly grasped on his hand.

".. ah, breaking a promise."
