“Take that! Let’s see how you run now!” Lin Yi pulled out his sword and charged towards the Evil Lord with a ferocious roar.

The sound of blade on blade rang throughout the battlefield as the two collided and swords met. In that instant, the thrill of battle coursed through their veins and they knew it was going to be a fight to death. Only one can emerge victorious from this battle.

Jumping back to avoid a blow from the enemy, Lin Yi was about to strike back when he sensed danger from behind him. He swiftly turned around only to see a blade raised high up above him. A sneak attack!!

“Despicable!! You dare to get someone else to sneak attack me!” Lin Yi radiated fury from the despicable and cowardly act. He deftly rolled to the side and raised his sword to fend off the attack.

“You fool. I do not abide by your little Code of Honour. I am the Evil Lord. I am the law! Now, prepare to die!”

Attacked from both sides, Lin Yi was having difficulty defending himself. As he blocked a low slash, he saw an attack coming from his side. It was a moment of crisis as he knew he would not be able to fend off that attack in time.

“DIE LIN YI!”

Lin Yi desperately pushed back the sword and tried to turn to fend off the incoming attack. The blade slashed towards him and it ————

“Hey!! What are you doing! I was reaching the peak of this story!” Tian looked up in frustration as the book was ripped from her hands.

“Tian-er, Father is looking for you. It’s that time already. I have been calling you for the past 5 minutes but you were too absorbed in your book. I had to take it away from you to get you to notice me! Little sister, I bet you would not even notice if the house started falling down around you while you’re reading.”

Yun gave his sister a mock scolding but one could see how much affection he has for his little sister from the way his eyes laughed while “scolding” her.

Tian grabbed her book back from Yun’s hands and sighed in exasperation.

“Alright, alright, I’ll stop reading for now. I can’t believe of all the times you had to stop me, it has to be at the most exciting point of the book.” She grumbled while searching for a bookmark, giving her brother a glare.

“By the way… What did you say Father was finding me for?”

Yun shook his head and face-palmed at her question. Why did he volunteer to find his sister for his parents again?

“It’s that time already, Tian-er. I said that just now. Were you even listening to me?!”

Tian jumped up in shock, her quest in finding the bookmark forgotten and the all-important book thrown aside.

“WHAT!! It is that time already?! Why did you not say so earlier. You should have shouted louder! Oh heavens, we have to hurry!” She yelped and ran towards the door, grabbing her brother with a sudden burst of strength and dragged him along with her towards their parents’ room.

Yun sighed in defeat and just allowed himself to be pulled along. To people they passed, they were a sight to see. A petite beautiful girl running as if chased by a hundred dogs, dragging a tall, handsome young man who looked ten times stronger than her. They shook their head in amusement at their Princess and the poor Prince who often indulged his little sister’s antics. It was a common sight for them to see in the Celestial Palace.
