The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1048 No Coincidence
The centipede's body slashed and thick green slimy blood spilled out, Lory's face contorted in disgust "Yuck..."
Another centipede spits out poisonous yellowish slime but Lory managed to dodge it when the slime hit the rock there was a hissing sound and the stone melted, Lory's mouth twitches "Look at that... ugly, deadly, and disgusting, That's why I hate bugs"
The more centipedes attacked, the more Lory groaned in disgust "Yuck...yuck...yuck..!"
She raised multiples ice torn from the ground that instantly kill
dozens of centipedes around her after she has done Lory shuddered as she begin to tip toe around the centipede carcass.
"I can't do this!" Lory raised her hands she gave up then she taking long strides towards Yang Xi Ying.
"Lory what's wrong with you?" Yang Xi Ying was amused by Lory's expression.
Lory shook his head in surrender, "I can't do it anymore, I really can't stand bugs just let Ming Yue Yin and that stupid boy handle the rest after all not there's not many beasts left anymore so they can definitely handle it"
"I thought it was an insect" Yang Xi Ying corrected her.
"Just as disgusting," said Lory.
Lory put her sword into her ring and then summon a stool from her ring and then sit across the table next to Yang Xi Ying who was already sitting in a comfortable chair complete with soft pillows for her aching back and a knitted scarf to cover her legs, she was clearly spare no effort to comfort herself she also not forgot to place a comfy pillow on the table for Girsha to rest.
But not long after that Ming Yue Yin also came, "Disgusting, there is slime everywhere and the smells… ugh!" Ming Yue Yin's body jitter in utter disgust.
"Hey, what about that stupid boy, you just left him there?" although Lory sounded worried still she casually handed over Ming Yue Yin's waterskin.
Ming Yue Yin took the waterskin while glancing at Tao Bing Wen "He will be fine, only a few beasts are left after all this is good for his martial arts training" Ming Yue Yin then took a sip quietly.
In the middle of the fight Tao Bing Wen realized that he was left alone and when he looked back, the three merciless women were sitting leisurely within the barrier drinking and eating snacks carelessly as if they were on a picnic.
"Why are you all there, <strong>HELP ME!</strong>" Tao Bing Wen begged.
Lory took a deep breath and then shook her head nonchalantly, "I want to but....nooo"
"It's only five of them, deal with it!" Ming Yue Yin refuted and scolded him instead, "Focus! Swing your hand! <strong>SWING</strong> – I mean swing - that's not a swing – do you know how to swing? <strong>SWING!</strong>"
Although Tao Bing Wen felt very wronged and upset strangely he followed Ming Yue Yin's orders naturally, unfortunately, he didn't deliver the result he expected, as a result, he incited Ming Yue Yin's anger and thus the scolded and the shout continued.
"No, turn your waist - no, it's not like that! What's wrong with your body?!"
A centipede's tail shot Tao Bing Wen then he fell on the ground he almost got spits by the centipede poison liquid, luckily he was fast enough to dodge alas, he was shouted again by Ming Yue Yin "Focus your mind, for god's sake your cultivator uses your Qi to increase your senses – can you calculated the movement of the beast, yet?!"
Lory and Yang Xi Ying exchanged glances feeling sorry for Tao Bing Wen, Lory took a deep breath while taking a sip thinking the scene reminded her so much of her past when she underwent Fargo training, and compared to Ming Yue Yin, Fargo was much harsher.
"Maybe you need to show him..." Lory raised an eyebrow.
"Should I?" Ming Yue Yin tilted her head while complaining lazily.
"Well, he has helped Xi Ying so let's just say you returned the favor for Xi Ying'" said Lory.
Yang Xi Ying also smiled sweetly, "If you help him later, I will allow you to name my child" Xi Ying winked.
Hearing that Ming Yue Yin's face immediately brightened, "Then remember your promise!" Ming Yue Yin immediately shot toward Tao Bing Wen with her sword, she slashed at two centipedes in one fell swoop, "Stupid boy, let me show you how to use a sword the right way!"
Lory chuckled as she watched Ming Yue Yin train Tao Bing Wen and then chat with Yang Xi Ying.
"How are you, is my nephew okay?" Lory looked at Yang Xi Ying's stomach.
Yang Xi Ying stroked her belly with a gentle smile and nodded, "Me and the baby are fine, it's all because of you and Ming Yue Yin~" she said gratefully, there's no denying he feels more secure and relaxed with Lory and Ming Yue Yin in surroundings, she guessed it must have eased Li Mo Zhen's worries when he found out she was with Lory and Ming Yue Yin that's why now she wasn't in a rush.
"This place… what do you think this place is?" Yang Xi Ying swept his eyes with a curious look.
"I'm not sure, I think this might be a temple or a palace judging from the big pillars that remain" Lory then slowly immersed in her thought.
Yang Xi Ying saw a subtle difference in Lory's mood she brace herself to asked "You worry about something?" 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖
Lory looked at Yang Xi Ying and looked a little embarrassed, "Am I that obvious?"
Yang Xi Ying chuckled, "I actually saw your mood change after you saw the snake carved on the pillar if my guess is correct it's because that demon is also a snake… right?"
Lory's mouth twitch "Don't you know is not good to be so smart" she jokingly said. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖
"I don't believe that besides I think Yue Yin notice too she just choose not to say anything despite her reckless character she was more understanding than me" Yang Xi Ying pout her lips pretending to be sulking but even so her words were sincere.
Lory laughs seeing Yang Xi Ying acting coquettish she thinks Yang Xi Ying is so adorable no wonder Li Mo Zhen loves her so much, not long after Lory realizes Tao Bing Wen kill the last centipede with his sword but unlike before his movements are more controlled and precise it seems Ming Yue Yin's lessons are worthwhile.
Lory thinks it's time to continue their journey, therefore, she put the stool back into her ring, Girsha also sensed the fight was over the bird then flew off from the pillow then perches on Lory's shoulder before long Yang Xi Ying also followed suit.
"Do you know the concept of Demons in this world?" Lory suddenly asked.
"Uhm...aren't demons a vile entity that lives in dept of hell that causes harm to humans and the world?" Yang Xi Ying's eyes formed a question.
Lory expected Yang Xi Ying's answer, "But in my world Demon are actually fallen Gods, they aren't really born evil it's just...they are misguided or so they said" Lory stretched out her hand to hold Yang Xi Ying's arm thinking that woman was not like any ordinary pregnant woman since she is a cultivator but Lory couldn't stop worrying about her.
Yang Xi Ying let Lory help naturally before something hit him, "Tao Bing Wen said in the mao tribe they worship snakes so the concept is similar to your world...is that a coincidence?" Yang Xi Ying's expression became intense.
Lory's eyes dimmed as she spoke in a steady tone, "I'm not sure, but when there are too many coincidences, it doesn't feel like coincidence anymore but more like a plan in disguise..." Lory's expression was calm and composed without leaving any hint of distress or worry as if she had expected it.
As they walked towards Ming Yue Yin and Tao Bing Wen Yang Xi Ying subconsciously held Lory's hand tightly then she looked at Lory worriedly "Then what are you going to do?"
Lory glanced at Girsha's green eyes and the corners of her lips curled into a confident smile "What I always do, I'll fight...very hard" There was determination mixed with hope in Lory's sparkling eyes that made Yang Xi Ying's heartache.
"Then we will fight with you, Yue Yin, Li Mo Zhen, Yuan Shao, Four Kings Palace, and many more, we will stand with you until the end, you know that, right?!" her unwavering gaze is like a warm breeze to her heart, Lory then patted Yang Xi Ying "I know, but remember your priority is to take care of my nephew, here" she gently touch Yang Xi Ying stomach.
"You keep saying nephew what if niece?" Yang Xi Ying asked.
"Then she will be beautiful like you and gentle like Li Mo Zhen" replied Lory casually.
Yang Xi Ying's smile grew brighter but then she suddenly look at lory inquisitively, "Why gentle like Brother Li, why not like me?" she lightly complained.
"Uhm....yeahh..." Lory avoided Yang Xi Ying's gaze.
