While Hei Shen Sect was planning on how to deal with the Heavenly Jade Pavilion, our princess was busy munching roasted duck with sweet-sour plum sauce. Zhao Li Xin had ordered a lot of food that the big round table was cover with dishes. Zhao Li Xin poured her more chicken soup.
"You know I can't finish this all?" Lory hated wasting food. In her last decade in the previous world, the sun was cover with darkness and food was rare. Many people died from starvation. Lory never took food for granted after having lived through it. She would always make sure to finish her al.
"It's fine..." Zhao Li Xin didn't care about food as his attention was on her.
"Let's wrap the leftover and give it to the beggars or an orphanage," Lory suggested.
"Sure…" He easily conceded.
Lory continued her al once it was settled. Being a high-level cultivator, Zhao Li Xin didn't need to eat much but watching his savior eat rose his appetite. He was surprised to discover food could be tasty. Lory smiled happily when she saw him eat more than usual.
"That woman Huang Ni…Ni Yang, I don't think she's going to back down easily," Lory worried about what the woman would do. Won in this world were more stubborn when it ca to relationships. She suspected it was because won were valued by their husbands' greatness or the number of sons she could have. This was why they obsessed over a man who was considered a good prospect.
"You don't need to worry about that," Zhao Li Xin reassured her. It wasn't his first-ti eting soone like Huang-whatever-her-na-was and sadly she won't be the last. He at tis wondered why Luo Ri Yi was the only sane woman he had t.

"HE SAID WHAT?"
A vase crashed loudly as it fell surprising the maids outside the room. This action was followed by more shouting and breakage. It went throughout the night. The young woman who had spoken to Zhao Li Xin earlier was standing in the corner with a helpless expression. It had been hours since she gave her report but her young miss was still throwing a tantrum.
The maid could only sigh at this. From afar, the young miss was seen as pure, innocent and gentle. This combined with her ethereal beauty was a picture-perfect fairy tale. She never lacked admirers or suitors wherever she went. They were all enchanted by her srizing beauty but behind the façade, Huang Ni Yang was very vicious. She hurt people for petty reasons. It was either because soone accidentally ruined her favorite teacup, wore a better dress, looked more beautiful or was slightly more talented. She would go the extra mile to ruin a person's life. She even didn't mind if she had to kill as she never thought it was wrong.
Huang Ni Yang's family always covered for her. This was especially true for her father as he let her do anything she wished and didn't ever reprimand her. Her father got to know her true nature when she killed his concubines at the age of thirteen. He never blad her and let her sche and kill however she wanted. He didn't care if he had to cheat, steal, or kill to please his daughter.
This was the first ti Huang Ni Yang was captivated by a man as she had never seen a man more handso than her brother. His beautiful eyes, tall body, and distance aura were all captivating. She was spellbound by him, but when she graciously invited him, the man rudely rejected her. It was the first ti soone dared to reject her. She too suffocated by this to hold in her anger. She kicked and threw everything in her reach in her madness.
"Oh… My dearest sister, who dares to anger you?" Soone entered the room with calm steps. His words were caring and gentle as he gave her a doting smile. Huang Ni Yang wanted to throw another antic vase but stopped mid-air when she heard her brother's warm voice. She turned to face him looking hurt and pitiful like an innocent girl. The trace of madness receded from her eyes.
Huang Zi Feng was used to his sister's temperantal behavior and like everybody else, he didn't think it was wrong. Huang Zi Feng was the classical narcissist. Everything had to revolve around him. It was always about what he needed, wanted, or cared about. Nothing else mattered. Even the love he proclaid for his dearest sister wasn't as pure as others thought. He loved his sister because of her perfect beauty and great talent. His sister lifted his image among others.
Huang Zi Feng would never associate himself with soone who he considered to be below his standards. He was even reluctant to be seen with soone who didn't match his level. In short, the siblings were both insane as the sister was a psychopath while the brother was a narcissist. It took a lot of power to cover the Huang siblings' bad deeds and to present them to the public as perfect.
"Brother, the man I'm fond of dared to refuse my invitation. I feel so sad…" Huang Ni Yang pouted cutely.
"He is just playing hard to get. You know n have their own egos. You shouldn't approach them strongly," Huang Zi Feng patted her head gently. He then waved his hand at the servants to clean up the ss.
"But, the maid said that man already has a fiancée," Huang Ni Yang sulked as she fell in her chair. If soone could see her current appearance, they wouldn't relate it to the crazy woman from before.
Huang Zi Fen glared at the maid standing in the corner. The maid flinched when she noticed his wicked gaze.
"Silly girl," Huang Zi Fen's gaze turned soft when his gaze moved back to his beautiful sister. He poked Huang Ni Yang's forehead gently, "Who can refuse a beautiful woman like you? I can assure you he would fall for you the mont he sees you."
"You really think so, older brother?" Huang Zi Fen asked shyly as her eyes lit up with joy.
"I'm sure!" He smiled sweetly at her.
"But... I don't know where to find him again," She couldn't help but sulk.
"Don't worry. I'll find him for you," Huang Zi Feng's reassurance made her smile. Her smile was as innocent as that of a pure child. No one would guess the number of people who had died under her dainty hands to fulfill her whims.
"Oh yes, brother. What about the Liangzu princess? Are you really gonna marry her?" Huang Ni Yang tilted her head. Her cute act made her seem more adorable.
"I have to. We need her after all."
"I don't like her," She refused.
"Why? You haven't even t her yet," He chuckled at his sister's childish behavior.
"Everyone says she's beautiful, smart, and talented…ugggh... It's so annoying," she despised anyone who was considered to be slightly better than her. She didn't want to share a roof with such a person.
"Naughty girl. Don't do anything to her at least not until I have finished my plans with her," He gave a wicked smile which clashed with his gentle deanor.
"I know. I won't do anything but after you finish with her… Can I do what I want to her?" She acted like a spoiled child asking for permission.
"of course. You only need to be patient for a while. Okay?" He dotingly responded.
"Okay, older brother," She nodded obediently.
The servants and maid felt the hairs at the back of their heads raise. These two siblings talked about ruining the life of an innocent woman in a cheerful manner. There was no hesitation, remorse or worry when they planned to destroy a life.
They couldn't help but pity the Liangzu princess who had beco the next prey yet there was nothing they could do but sigh silently for the dood princess.
