Han Yuan's face and eyes turned red as he tried to hold back his anger. He had never gone through such humiliation in his life. If eyes could kill, Lory would have been dead a hundred times over. Han Yuan noticed his opponent was on a man's lap and saw it as an opportunity to embarrass her.
"You loose woman! Don't you have shame? How could you sit on a man's lap in front of others? How can a woman like you dare mock me?" Han Yuan's accusation made others notice the odd situation. Her sitting on a man's lap was a testament to promiscuous behavior. Everyone murmured and Han Yuan thought he had done a great job of humiliating her.
?
Zhao Li Xin wanted to lash out at the people mocking his woman but Lory gently rubbed his back to calm his anger. Her action worked well and he forgot the reason he was angry.
"Hey! Am I your sister, fiancée or your lover? Do we know each other?" Lory gave a sly smile. This junior high type of bickering was not new to her. She raised her eyebrows, "By the way… I'm the one who's sitting on his lap. He's the one who put me here so why are you the one making a fuss?"
"…"
The room turned silent once more. She was right. They had no right to tell her what to do. They didn't know who she was and her relationship with the man holding her. They were all strangers in the restaurant.
"You…you are shameless!" Han Yuan responded weakly and Lory rolled her eyes but he couldn't back down easily. "I'm from the White Moon Tower. I will remember this. I will remember this humiliation and I will make you pay!"
"It's up to you. But, I won't remember this..." Lory said casually.
Her plain response made everyone speechless. Even Han yuan didn't know what to say. The room fell silent but Zhao Li Xin's body suddenly shook with laughter. He laughed so much that his body trembled profusely.
His face shore and his handsome face became more charming as he laughed. His baritone laugh was melodious, enchanting Everyone. The ladies in the room couldn't help but be mesmerized. Meanwhile, Lory was stunned. She had never heard him laugh so hard. Lory couldn't help but feel excited and elated.
However, Mong Yi was frozen and shocked beyond belief. He stared at Zhao Li Xin in horror as he didn't know if he should be happy or scared by the situation. Nothing good happened when his lord acted out of the norm.
Han Yuan was humiliated more by Zhao Li Xin's laughter. He couldn't hold his anger anymore. He released his Qi to shut Zhao Li Xin up.
Han Yuan's talent wasn't bad as he was a Master Level cultivator at the Peak Stage. He was one step away from reaching the Grand Master Level but sadly he chose the wrong opponent. If only he knew he was challenging someone who was at the Sovereign level, he won't have dared.
Everyone in the room could feel the pressure coming from Han Yuan's Qi. Those who had low cultivation were forced to kneel on the floor, while those with better cultivation remained seated but turned pale. Han Yuan gloated with satisfaction as he watched them being pressured by his power.
Han Yuan turned to show off before those who had humiliated him only to see the three people watching him like he was stupid. However, what shocked him more was none of them seemed affected by his Qi.
Zhao Li Xin and Mong Ki's cultivation way above Han Yuan's. Although Lory was unable to use her power, it didn't mean her power was gone. Her power still resided within her like a transparent jacket. It protected her from harm and there was also Zhao Li Xin's protective amulet. They two power; her Gift and protective amulet synced to form a powerful barrier around her. Lory could feel the necklace warm slightly which was a sign the necklace was working to protect her.
"You… Why are you all still fine?" Han Yuan pointed at them. His gesture started to irk Zhao Li Xin.
"I don't like how he keeps pointing at me…" Zhao Li Xin's voice became colder.
Mong Yi understood right away as Zhao Li Xin covered Lory's eyes with his hands. She could hear someone scream in agony. Lory brushed off Zhao Li Xin's hand to see. Han Yuan was kneeling before them as he held his bleeding hand. There was an index finger on the floor next to him.
People gapped in shock. They didn't see the man in a black uniform move but he had managed to quickly cut Han Yuan's finger and move back to his original position without breaking a sweat. They marveled at the man's strength. He had done it all before anyone could react.
They were secretly relieved that the hadn't provoked the two mysterious men. One could only imagine the master's power if the bodyguard was that strong, yet the stupid White Moon Tower Academy disciple provoked them.
"You…you cut my FINGER!!" Han Yuan roared in agony.
"You're lucky it isn't your head," Zhao Li Xin said with indifference. It sounded like he had given him great mercy which was the truth. He was lenient to Han Yuan compared to what he used to do.
His reply gave everyone chills. They realized the enchanting man didn't throw empty threats. Han Yuan also believed Zhao Li Xin would cut off his head if he provokes him further but he was still stubborn enough to glare at Zhao Li Xin with unyielding violence.
"My master would never let this go," Han Yuan still used his position to threaten others.
Zhao Li Xin sneered at the man on the floor. His face turned cruel and eerie. It turned one's blood cold, "Good! Tell your master to find Long Ming of the Hei Shen Sect."
Dead silent engulfed the room but this time it was eerier than before. They looked at Zhao Li Xin in utter shock. The man was Long Ming, the master of the Hei Shen Sect? Shouldn't he wear a gold mask? Then again, they remembered the rumor that Long Ming was the Sixth Prince of Jiang Wei Kingdom. People said the Sixth Prince was the most beautiful man in the kingdom and the man in front of them was the most beautiful man they had ever laid eyes on. Could he really be Long Ming?
Han Yuan's face turned as white as sheet. It was as if the sky had fallen on his head. Hei Shen Sect! How could he provoke the Hei Shen Sect, not mentioning Long Ming himself? His own master would kill him or even expel him from the academy if he was lucky.
