The Princess And The Lord

Shin Jiu is a blessed child his ability to get closed with almost all kind of beast out there make him have far more knowledge about beast than common people, it's exactly because his ability that Jin Hao asked him to involved with his research and as expected Shin Jiu put a lot of useful insight about Beast and their nature.

Yun Xue An came while carrying a tray and above the tray lay a strange dark stone in the size of children thumb but what make thing more strange is because the stone beating like a heart, everyone stares at the strange stone with a mixture of curiosity and wary.

On the contrary, Shin Jiu took the stone without worry then he shows to everyone that this stone is not dangerous "You all might never saw this before but this thing call 'Beast core' it place inside the Beast heart so not many people know but even if anyone found it they might not think too much about this since it got no used for human whatsoever"

"Every Beast born with 'Beast core' in their heart and it got divers size depend on the beast luck the bigger their core the stronger they become," said Shin Jiu.

"Can the bear core nurture or is it determined since their born?" Ming Yue Yin asks.

"Answer your majesty, it is can be nurture" he answers politely like a good teacher and continues "It can be nurture with pill and elixir that we consumed but they can absorb more if they consumed human heart who tend to used pill and elixir to increased their cultivation"

Everyone's mouth twitched, Li Mo Zhen inhaled deeply "Another reason not to used pill to cultivated…." He mutters.

"Can the beast differentiated between people who consumed a lot of pills with the ones who are not?" Yang Xi Ying a bit anxious because most people including her used the pill to cultivated.

"Oh yes they can, the more you consumed the more distinctive your odor for them" Shin Jiu gives a firm nod.

"But, afraid not, if you don't use pill exaggeratedly then it after two or three months the odor on your body would disappear, as long you don't consume more pill…" Yun Xue An added when she saw Yang Xi Ying's anxious face.

Immediately Yang Xi Ying and the others who used pills in their old days sigh in relief.

"Don't worry too much as long you used pills in right dosage it will not affect your body odor too much, although pills are proved beneficial to build a foundation when you still young, but the truth is better not used pill when someone got older, you should stop using pill or elixir to cultivated especially to reach a breakthrough and use qi gathering array instead" said Jin Hao.

"But no one knows bout Qi gathering array right?" Ming Yue Yin reminds Jin Hao and everyone in the room. First of all Qi gathering array is Zhao Li Xin discovery so only Hei Shen member who know about this technique and only recently they share this technique to Li Mo Zhen and the others with an agreement that they will not leak this technique to other people even if that person is their family or master.

The reason is simple, Zhao Li Xin could trust them on behalf of Lory but he can't trust other people beyond them.

"Okay move on!" Lory clapped her hands to get their focus straight "What is it about this Beast core connection with the strange beast that we found?"

"Oh, this…..there something wrong with the beast core inside the strange beast we found" Jin hao turn around and took another tray.

"Everything about that beast is strange for me" Ming Yue Yin mutters

"It's disgusting for me" Yang Xi Ying pout her lips in disgust.

"It does look very disgusting…" Yuan Shao saw the beast carcass on the table and feel creeps all over his body, he didn't mind with the beast's nasty appearance or smell, it just a sense of obscurity not knowing what you dealing with.

"Ssstt…no talking during the class" Lory jokingly interrupted them while pressing her index finger on her lips.

They laugh it off then draw their attention back to Shin Jiu who came again while carrying another tray that covers with a white cloth, he put the tray on the table force Lory and the others to get rid of her ass from the table the Shin jiu take off the cloth and what they see is beast core in various color, shape, and size.

Shin Jiu took one of the core and show it to everyone who already circling the table "This is normal beast core should like, dark red used to belong to carnivore mostly mammals, tey born with orange beast core then gradually become dark red when it gets older and stronger, the darker the color the stronger the beast was, and the aquamarine core belong to the aquatic beast, green if it's amphibians and light blue for flying type beast….this is all normal beast core" Shin Jiu put down the core back on the tray.

"And this is from the strange beast that we found" he shows the first beast core he shows earlier then puts it side by side with the other normal beast core as a comparison and the difference is astonishing.

The normal beast cores have a clear glow and radiant color almost like a gemstone but the core from the strange beast color is black with a hint color of yellow

In her old world, Lory didn't pay too much attention to the sudden change of beast nature in her world since Lory already occupied with Lucas matter and the sudden loss of her father, the mourned itself enough to broke her down not to mention the anxiety for losing Lucas in the future. Nevertheless, Lory was considered to be lucky because she still has Girsha by her side who sometimes knocked some sense whenever she felt like she loses her mind.

"What make you think the strange beast core different from the normal beast?" Lory ask.

This time Jin Hao came with a worn dirty book that smudged with dirt "This is what we found when we investigated the cave…" he shows the paper to everyone.

"Where do you find this?" Zhao Li Xin frowned.

"It was a journal of someone who works for Lao Min Na, strangely the journal was buried in the ground it seems someone try to hide it, too bad most the pages are unreadable only few pages could read clearly" Jin Hao sigh in regret,

The ink on the paper was washed off a little bit and the writing is a bit messy seems like whoever wrote this is in hurry, Lory could feel the distress of that person when he or she writes the letter.

"I will read some of it for all of you because this is very important" Jin Hao opens the page and begin to read the journal for everyone in the room.

'Miss Lao Min Na came again with that mysterious liquid, she orders us to feed the beast with it but the beast show their strong resistance towards the liquid, and is not because they didn't like it, it's more like they afraid of it.

The Liquid was thick and have foul smelled, the worst smell I ever know in my life and I have seen giant rotten Beast carcass still it can't match that disgusting liquid, and what make it more terrible the liquid have a black color more like poison if not worst than that.

The beast refused to drink the liquid so Miss Lao Min Na starved all the beast for weeks until they can't take it anymore. When the beast drinks the liquid, one by one the beast is dead only a few of them manage to survive, but then they change not just their body become much bigger and stronger they also become more aggressive and ferocious it killed everyone near them.

The beast attack all of us, I'm lucky to be alive because I hide behind Miss Lao Min Na, unexpectedly the Beast didn't dare to hurt her, I don't know why?

Twenty people die that day, they are friends and colleague under the Moon Tower sect although we are not close we're still brothers and sisters from the same sect, my heart sunk when I saw how violent they dead were, however, miss Lao Min Na was unperturbed, she's stood there as if she saw nothing, I feel the chill in my heart.

I've been served miss Lao from the beginning when she was weak until she becomes the powerful women she is now, I thought I know her but today I realize perhaps I never know her at all'

Lory's expression deepens, no one knows what Lao Min Na been through better than her. If Lao Min Na accepted the curse as she did before then she must lose her sanity along the way just like she did, but lucky enough she got Girsha to sacrifice himself to protect her sanity.

Lory knows the reason she still who she is because of the blessing of Girsha and her mother sacrifices and when she came to this world because she didn't use her gift the cursed was remain stable or hibernated if one might call, but the Lory used her gift the first time after long years to save Zhao Li Xin life at the same time she activated her mother spelled, only then her heart and mind were saved from Lazarus corruption then she found trinity fragments and her cursed weakened every time she gathers more fragments, she was lucky and she knows that, but Lao Min Na…

Everyone stares at Lory but no one says anything then shifts their focus back on Jin Hao.

'…Once they consumed the black liquid power for two weeks, we feed them with beast core from another species and the beast body gradually change, a was dumbfounded, I never thought such methods exist to combine beast from a different race into one, but my guessed it got something to do with the black liquid"

'However many beasts end up dead as if they can't hold the pressure the beast didn't live long and they all die miserably, even they are just a beast but the way the beast died it's too much for me to take."

"Miss Lao Min Na came again, this time she brings a small jade bottle then she approaches the dead beast and she slowly opens the lid, suddenly something came out from it, I don't know what it is, it didn't look like 'Gu' or another type of parasite that I know of, however, the creature gives me creeps and I'm sure it's not my own opinion, I can see everyone felt the same, something ominous about the creature.

The creature creep into the beast carcass and enter the dead beast ear and few second later the beast alive! I cannot believe it, what kinda creature that can bring the dead beast back to life again, the beast roar with ear-piercing sounds and hit the ground with it giant feet, the beast is alive and stronger than before but their eyes turn red as blood, I don't know why but I felt something terribly wrong.

I can't stop wonder, What did I get myself into?'
