The Princess And The Lord

A sudden loud banging sound startled them, guan men Niang and some of members of Hei Shen exchanged surprised looks for a moment before running towards the sound, other cultivators who had regained some of their strength also ran to where the sound came from.

A thunderous sound came from outside the protective array where dozens of hybrid beasts tried to break the array while Lan Hua, Jin Hua, and other cultivators from various sects tried to restrain the Hybrid beasts but unfortunately they were outnumbered.

"C...can the array stand it?" a young cultivator asked in a trembling tone.

The older cultivator looked calmer but anxiety was etched on his face "Maybe not for long…" he sighed at the same time he inwardly calculated the strength of the Hybrid beast outside the array, judging by their strenght if the beast continued to attack the array then the array would not be able to last more than ten minutes and when that happen everyone in the emergency post will be slaughtered like grass.

"What should we do?" asked the young cultivator frantically.

The older cultivators had more experience and were able to think clearly even under pressure, therefore they knew what the have to do, the more experience cultivator exchanged meaningful glances with each other for a second.

"What else should we do?" one of the old cultivators took out a sword from his waist, "We fight!"

The other cultivators also took out their weapons simultaneously and their eyes showed nothing but unwavering determination.

"Wait!" Guan Men Niang approached them hastily "You all better change your weapons, master Wu San Bo said this creature is weak with this special weapon!" Guan Men Niang waved her hand and several weapons were neatly arranged on the ground, then the other members of Hei Shen shared a tacit understanding that they also waved their hands and more weapons appeared.

"We don't have many of these, but you all can have them!" said one member of Hei Shen.

The cultivators stared wide-eyed at the weapons that were on display in front of them just with a glance at a glance they knew that this weapon was not a ordinary weapon, they then turn their gaze at the members of Hei Shen and Guan Men Niang suspiciously, it's hard to believe the arrogant Hei Shen sect could be so generous.

Guan Men Niang understood their doubts but this is not the time to doubt each other, Guan men Niang clasped her hands she took a deep breath then looked at them sternly, "This is not the time for us to doubt each other, just for today let's forget our differences, did you not see outside? if we lose this war then everything and everyone we care about will be gone....nothing will left for us, no one!  therefore even only for today let's fight together! for our love one!"

Guan Men Niang's sincere words moved them, he was right, this is not the time to be suspicious of each other. they are facing an unimaginable battle this is not a fight for wealth or power as usual but it is a fight for survival.

One of the cultivators snorted loudly, he stepped forward and picked up one of the swords he swung his sword at then nodded at Guan Men Niang and members of Hei Shen "I will make sure this sword is used properly!" he flicked a hyphenated smile out of line against one of the beasts.

Encouraged by the man's action, one by one stepping forward and picking up their weapons, they gave Guan Men Niang a smile of appreciation before charging towards the Beast with all their might.

Tears welled up in her eyes, she didn't expect the cultivators who were usually arrogant and looked down on her willing to heed her words, Guan Men Niang lower her head while rubbing her hands together as an overwhelming feeling rush inside her...it was a feeling she's been forgotten for along time, it was a feeling of proud to herself.

"Miss Guan you are awesome!" one of the Hei Shen young members give her a thumbs up.

Guan Men Niang blushed then a bright smile spread on her beutiful face, she didn't expect a broken shoes like her to still be useful to others.

"Miss Guan, we hand over the emergency post in your care!" The other members of Hei shen took out their weapons then patted their friend's shoulder "Come on, we can't lose to them!"

His friend laughs "You are right, we are members of Hei Shen we must not embarrass our great Lord!"

<strong>"I'M GOING FIRST!"</strong> one of the youngster dash toward the array at high speed.

"Hey, that's not fair!" another saw and complain then chased his friend.

"Take care Miss Guan!" the other members waved at Guan men Niang before leaving quickly.

Guan Men Niang looked at those hot-blooded hei Shen sect members with resignation sigh then shouted at them "Be careful everyone!"

Fierce battles took place between cultivators and dark creatures, casualties fell from both sides, mindless beasts attacked them mercilessly with their boundless stamina and lack of pain were not easy opponents for cultivators who after all as humans they had limits and could feel pain.

More victims were sent to the emergency post for treatment, Guan Men niang and all the doctors and alchemists were overwhelmed with so many patients while the medicines were running low.

,m Alas, their condition was very bad, in the midst of their worries, they heard footsteps approaching the city, immediately all activities stopped, even the people who were groaning in pain abruptly shut, they all looked at the direction where the sounds come from while holding their breath.

There was an eerie silence at the emergency post, civilians hugged each other, mothers and fathers hugged each other with the children as if resigned to whatever happened.

Guan Men Niang could hear her heart beating, at this momment her only wished if only she could see her brother and Wu San Bo onece again.

But what they saw were dozens of foxes with flippers on their backs running gracefully and when they came the dark creature let out a scream of pain, the fox and the dark creature attacking each other fiercely.

Soon they heard the sound of horse footsteps and people marching towards them all wearing armor while shouting loudly as they slashed at Hybrid beasts and Critters.

One of Hei Shen's members saw the flag bearing the phonix and the flag bearing the eagle with the inscription of the tribes king flutter galantly, he immediately shouted with ecstatically, "They are Empress Ming's  and the King of tribe's army!"

Everyone cheered with joy, the spirit that was almost gone was smoldering again like a wildfire.

Guan Men Niang sat limply on the bench, her pale facegradually turned into a smile as she breathed a sigh of relief but suddenly she was startled bysomeone shouting calling her "SISTER!"

Guan Men Niang movement paused for a second before she lift her head it was then she saw a boy that looks familiar but also foreign, descended from the white lion in a hurry and ran to her crying then jumped into her arms.

"Elder sister, I miss you so much, sorry I couldn't save you!" Guan Yi Jue cried in Guan Men Niang's arms.

Guan Men Niang thought she was dreaming, her brother is so tall he is almost as tall as her chest and although his body is thin but his arms feel very strong.

"Yi Jue?" she looked at the boy in her arms with trembling lips "You are Yi Jue....you are my Bao Bao?" tears roll on her cheeks.

"Yes, sister it's me, Bao Bao!" Guan Yi Jue said in choked voice.

The sibling who had not seen each other for many years hugged each other tightly, after enduring so many hellish years she finally meeting the only family she had.

"Ehm, sorry to interrupt your reunion, may I interrupt you for a moment..." Yuan Xue An waved her hand awkwardly.

"I think you already did" shin Jiu who stand beside her roll his eyes

Guan Men Niang that many people saw her thus she immediately let go of her hug then wiped his tears as well as Guan Yi Jue he looked embarrassed to know Shin Jiu saw him crying like a child.

"Ehm, older sister they are Miss Yuan Xue An the younger sister of the king of  tribe from Zhuang dong continent name Yuan Shao and this is Shin Jiu the disciple of Miss Lory and also the one who saved me when I was held captive by that weird sissy" Guan Yi Jue introduced them.

Guan Men Niang stunned then looked at Shin Jiu with grateful looks.

Shin Jiu felt a little embarrassed while scratching his nose he said "It's just a coincidence"

Guan men Niang bend her waist while cupping her fist respectfully "No matter what, you have save my brother, I don't have anything but if there anything I could do please tell me, I will do anything in my ability to fulfilled your wish" she sincerily said .

Shin Jiu flustered he quickly waved his hand "don't mention it, it was my master who save your brother anyway, it just coincidence our cell is close to each other!"

"Miss Guan, may I ask what happened to the Four Kings Palace?" Yuan Xue thought and tried to keep her expression normal but one could see the reflex of concern in her gentle eyes.

Guan Men Niang turned her heavy gaze towards Yin Shan mountain "The Four Palace Kings went with Lord Long Ming and longed for Lory to Yin shan mountain to face the demoness lao Min Na and her master"

Shin Jiu and Yuan Xue An's faces turned grim but they had expected this much.

"Do you know where my brother and sister-in-law are?" Yuan Xue An asked again.

Guan Men Niang nodded "Unfortunately, Miss Yang Xi Ying dissapeared during the attacked  on the city therefore master Li Mo Zhen along with Master Yuan Shao and Her Excellency Empress Ming are looking for her as we spek"

"Miss Yang dissapeared?" Yuan Xue An shrill in panic "Isn't miss pregnant, if I'm not mistaken she should be in her fourth month!" she calculated with her finger and stress oozing from her voice.

"The situation really bad" Shin Jiu blows his cheeks while took a long stare around him before turn his head at guan men Niang again, "So what's the plan now? Did my master or Lord say anything?"

"Master Long Ming said to cooperate with everyone to fight those monsters so they don't spread out from the Hwang Wu continent" replied Guan Men Niang.

Shin Jiu nodded in understanding, "Of course, if we fail to contain them in the hwang Wu continent, they will spread to other continents and the consequences will be catastrophic." Shin Jiu subconsciously clenched his fists.

"Miss Guan, I had brought supply of medicine from Hei Shen and sister-in-law also brought a lot of ingredients for making medicine also physician and alchemists from the Liang Zu kingdom, how can we help!" Yuan Xue an didn't waste any more time, she knew they had to move quickly to deal with this.

"Thanks goodness, we're starting to run out of medicine and also our physician and alchemist also exhausted from overworked, you all coming in the right time!" Guan Men Niang's face was beaming with joy.

"Sister, I learned a little about medicine, I can help!" said Guan Yi Jue.

Guan Men Niang smiled broadly as she saw that her younger brother had become sensible and smart it made her feel her sacrifice was not in vain.

"Then I will send word to all the kingdoms outside the Hwang Wu continent just in case, and request the dispatch of assistance from the underground palace!" Shin Jiu turn around and left in a hurry.
