The Story Of Dusk

Lin"s ident.i.ty was safe until now because Luna didn"t say anything about her to Xiao Tianyao.

Since the first day her father brought this girl home, she knew how cunning she was, thanked to her ability. She could feel a thick wickedness in her every intention no matter how good she covered it.

Modama also knew about Lin"s nature, but to think about this again, probably because of that very reason why he brought her back.

Since little, Luna lacked of cruelness upset Modama, because of that fact he always punished by giving her an order to hurt Gong Xu.

However, Lin was not his daughter and aside from him, Luna was the last mind controller that still exist.

The reason why Luna didn"t tell Xiao Tianyao about Lin"s real ident.i.ty because she couldn"t, she really couldn"t divulge Lin"s schemes! Modama had made sure of it!

Since the day Lin came, Modama had been training her like his own daughter and she had gone for mission before Luna did.

Knowing Luna"s faint heartedness, he had made her to vow to not intrude in Lin"s issue, no matter what she did.

Therefore now, she couldn"t bring herself to oppose her, especially when she was in the weakest point like this.

"Why? Did you fall for him?" Lin asked her in mocking tone. "Should I tell your father too that you still keep the baby? From what I know, Master didn"t feel excited about having grandchild from Xiao"s bloodline." The mocking tone was palpable.

"If I were let Xiao Tianyao knew your ident.i.ty and your intention, do you think you have a chance to inform my father?" Luna didn"t like her, especially when she tried to threaten her that way

"Young Miss Luna, do you think your man will be back in time to stop me?" Lin snickered. "I am here as a doctor and could go whenever or wherever I want in this resort. While you…" She tilted her head. "You are only a woman who is grounded and bear an enemy child. Whichever side you chose, you will not be able to survive for long."

"Isn"t this very clear for you, which side I had chosen?" Luna"s voice sounded so calm yet the dangerous feeling that trailed behind it couldn"t be taken easily. "Just like what you had said, I will die anyway, but my child will live on. I will a.s.sure that."

Something that flickered in Luna"s eyes was caught Lin out of guard, she didn"t know if this woman was able to pull such devilish look like that.

Holding back her fear, Lin walked closer toward Luna and whispered. "If Master said to get rid the baby, then I ask your apologize in advance."

"If something harm befell upon my child, you would taste how the feeling from being controlled of." Luna whispered back at her, gave Lin a side- eyes look.

Luna made sure Lin could feel her wrath and the ominous tone that followed with her words, if it wasn"t for his father who had restrained her movement against this girl, Luna would have spilled her name from the first breath she decided to siding with Xiao Tianyao.

This wasn"t the first time Lin argued with her but seeing how grim she looked, Lin shuddered. No matter how fainthearted Luna was, she was still Modama"s daughter.

The same merciless blood in Modama"s vein was running down hers as well.

Without saying anything Lin walked out of the room, but before she could open the door, she heard Luna talked to her in low voice while pouring some water onto her cup.

"Don"t provoke me, the ending wouldn"t be nice for you." Luna sipped her water indifferently, as if she wasn"t aware about the changing of emotion on Lin"s face.

Couldn"t find any words to fight her back, Lin furiously stomped her feet and got out of the room.

The moment Lin had disappeared, Luna eyes darkened. Due to the vow, she couldn"t mingle with Lin"s issues, so he needed to find a way to take care of her.

The three days that Yu Aotian had promised to Xiao Jun were up.

Tomorrow was the Golden Auction, but until now there were no news from Yu Aotian and this frustrated Qi Xunyi.

Currently, Xiao Jun and Qi Xunyi was staying at the white pearl inn, occupying another room since Qianru was in different place with Ye Bai.

"Tell me." Qi Xunyi turned his head to look at Xiao Jun, who was reading a book under the faint light of candles. "If you had known that Yu Aotian and his L clan is Xiao w.a.n.g Wei"s people, why do you still let him know our plan? Isn"t that not a wise move?"

Xiao Jun raised his head from the book and replied. "Because that is part of the plan."

"And what exactly this plan of yours?" Qi Xunya was in dark about Xiao Jun"s plan. He only kept talking about luring Xiao w.a.n.g Wei"s people into the daylight.

"It"s very simple, you will know when he comes to me." Xiao Jun continued to read his book.

His reluctance explanation put Qi Xunyi restless. "Who? Yu Aotian?"

When Qi Xunyi were in the middle of trying to figure the things out, Liu Wei came and gave the both princes his respect then informed his Master.

"Master. Outside, Yu Aotian from L Clan is seeking for audience." Liu Wei said.

"Had we given him his money?" Xiao Jun put down his book, asking indifferently.

"Yes, Master, We had."

"So, what he wants?"

"Yu Aotian wants to talk with Master in private."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Jun chuckled mirthlessly. "Talking to me in private? Since he had gotten the money, did you ask him if he did the thing that I had told him to do?"

"Yes, he had, but there is a…" Liu Wei tilted his head, trying to remember the exact terms that Yu Aotian had used. "…Complication."

"Complication?" Xiao Jun reiterated his subordinate"s word, his eyebrows shot up in amus.e.m.e.nt. "What a pretty words he used."

On the other side, Qi Xunyi paid an extra attention to their conversation. It goes without saying that Xiao Jun was an expert to fabricate lies and wicked schemes.

"Tell him to wait." Xiao Jun waved his hand to dismiss Liu Wei before he picked the book again and resumed his reading.

"Prince Xiao Jun, aren"t you going to meet Yu Aotian?" Qi Xunyi asked after five minutes had past and Xiao Jun didn"t give a signal that he intended to meet the L clan"s leader.

"He can wait." Xiao Jun replied calmly without averted his gaze.

Qi Xunyi didn"t ask more about it and waited wisely to see what this Prince was up to.  He was still so young and was inexperience, he was aware about that.

There were a lot of things that he needed to learn in order to keep his life and saved another"s in this dog bit dog"s world. And watched Xiao Jun"s made a plan meticulously to reach his goal was the things that he should learn.

He couldn"t and shouldn"t remain ignorance. No. after what their enemy had done to his family and the brunt that he has to shoulder.

There was no time to slack off, he needed to pay attention to his surroundings and read the situation quickly.

However, he still had no idea what Xiao Jun was up to.

After an hour had past and Xiao Jun still didn"t have intention to meet Yu Aotian, Qi Xunyi was about to open his mouth and asked again, but suddenly there was a commotion outside the room.

"What is that?" Qi Xunyi reached his sword out of reflect and stood up abruptly. "There is a fight?" He asked incredulously.

How a fight could break in the hallway of this inn? Who was so daring to do that?

"I will check." He stated and When Qi Xunyi was walking across the room to reach the door, Xiao Jun suddenly spoke, still in his calm and charming voice.

"Please tell Liu Wei to let him in, no need to disturb another guest.

It is Liu Wei? But whom he fought? Qi Xunyi asked himself inwardly, but nodded anyway. "Will do."

Then he opened the door and the scene that greeted him was something that turned his smooth forehead, scrunched in resentment.

In front of him, in the hallway, Liu Wei and three of Xia Jun"s people were fighting with twelve people, including Yu Aotian.

All of them were unsheathing their sword with grim look etched on their faces. Four against thirteen it would be b.l.o.o.d.y scenesFind authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Around them, people had scattered and run into another direction while the other guest closed their door and locked it, didn"t want to get involve for something that wasn"t their concern.

"Liu Wei." Qi Xunyi called out his name calmly without loosened his grip on the hilt of his sword. "Let him in."

Upon hearing Qi Xunyi"s voice, Liu Wei glanced over at him through his shoulder, didn"t put his guard down. "Did my Master say that?" Liu Wei stubbornly resumed his defensive stance.

"Yes." Qi Xunyi hummed. "And you!" He pointed his chin toward Yu Aotian. "You can get in and meet Prince Xiao Jun without your sword."

Upon hearing that, Liu Wei smirked.

"Swordsman couldn"t leave their sword behind." Yu Aotian tilted his head and smiled. "I just wanted to talk nicely with the Prince, but why his subordinate makes things difficult?"

"He just did what necessary." Qi Xunyi walked past Liu Wei and stood only few meters away from Yu Aotian. "Only you and prince Xiao Jun, without swords." He said loud and clear. "Your choice."

"But it seems I don"t have a choice at all." Yu Aotian snickered.

"You can always turn around and go back to where you belong." Qi Xunyi mimicked his harmless smile. "You had the money with you, instead of being here, you should do your job, right?"

Even though he didn"t quite sure about what was going on, but one thing that he learned from the way Yu Aotian insisted to meet Xiao Jun, he must be desperate to ask something from him and Xiao Jun had calculated this, that was why he didn"t take it Yu Aotian"s presence now seriously.

Clenched his fist tightly, the smile never waver from his lips. "Alright. I will do as Prince Xiao Jun wishes."

Yu Aotian then gave his sword to his subordinate behind him and walked dauntlessly pa.s.sed Qi Xunyi, the latter bemused about what actually Xiao Jun was holding against him that he could yield to this extent.
