Gao Lan Mei glanced to the Zicuìyù Regime that is nearest, "Are you the ones that was supposed to protect me?" her tone of indifference made the protectors a.s.signed to her flinch.Five protectors bowed low to her, "Yes young miss!" deciding to answer truthfully, then adding, "We arrived late, but decided not to approach…" the one that spoke have blue Oni mask with hawk claw mark on the right cheek. His voice full of apology and sincerity.
Seeing their vice-captain respectfully bowed low to Gao Lan Mei as well as his open admission that Gao Lan Mei was not protected, makes their mood soured. Specially the protector that is wearing the red Oni mask with eagle"s head mark on the right cheek, he is the fifth regime captain.
Staring at the one that spoke, "Why did you not approach?" she asked, wanting to know what they have witnessed in her courtyard. Gao Lan Mei already decided to be truthful to her father. It will not benefit the Gao family if she will hide some of her plans. It will make everyone prepared.
Answering, "We saw that the situation is already under control, and, we are…" gulping before continuing, "we are… anxious to approach," feeling the sweat sticking to his robes, due to nervousness, of Gao Lan Mei"s question as well as the glare of his captain.
He quickly glanced at Gao Lan Mei, but there is no expression on her face. Tilting her head, "What are you anxious about?" she continued to ask, with the evil glint on her eyes.
"Ah, young miss!" another of the protectors, shrieked after seeing her eyes, then kneel to the ground, "Please forgive us!" not exactly knowing what to ask forgiveness for, the protector decided that begging for it is a good idea.
As long as the young miss does not look at them evilly, he will do everything. He does not want to experience the horror of not being able to cultivate!
All the beings in the Lotus Pavilion, except for the four a.s.sa.s.sins, looked at the protector that is currently kneeling on the ground. The captain wants to drag this imbecile for acting so shameless.
Looking at the kneeling protector weirdly, "Why should I forgive you?" twitching her lips, not sure if she wants to smile or to scowl. She is not even sure why he is kneeling!
"Please young miss! I have not taken a wife yet! Please do not remove my cultivation!" the kneeling protector continued to cry, desperately. He is the one wearing a dark green Oni mask with a painted head of a c.o.c.katoo on the right cheek.
Not able to help it, "Enough!" the red Oni masked protector shouted. He cannot endure the humiliation anymore." Stand up! Shut up!" then dragged the previously kneeling protector away from Gao Lan Mei.
Shaking his head, then bringing his attention back to Gao Lan Mei, "Young miss, apologies with the noise. He does not know what he is saying." The red Oni masked said.
Gao Qi is not happy with how the protectors acted in front of his daughter so far. "Daughter, pray tell your father what is going on? What does he mean about removing his cultivation?" deciding to ask her instead.
Smiling, "He is not entirely wrong father. I have a way to remove cultivation." Gao Lan Mei answered truthfully.
