Chapter 8 - Chapter 08

Xie Jing Shen looked at the Jian gongzi before him and smiled suddenly however the golden mask hid the expression.

He extended his left palm towards the youth. It contained thirty percent of his power. Not everyone could dodge it.

However Gu Mei Ya leaned slightly and kicked at his waist. Eyes beneath the golden mask shrunken slightly. He really wanted to check this gongzi power. He waved his sleeves toward the youth. Youth didn't avoid the attack this time but faced head on "the demon king really does not know about etiquette. You really like to bully the younger generation."

Xie Jing Shen eyes flashed. Is that Jian gongzi telling that he is older man? He really have some nerve. Gu Mei Ya avoided the attack and sent a punch for opponent's stomach. Xie Jing Shen caught the hand coming forward. And twisted to sideways. Gu Mei Ya pulled her hand by sending another attack.

Both of them separated.

Gu Mei Ya looked at the demon king and said. "I wonder why your lordship appeared at this humble place."

Xie Jing Shen said coldly. "You should know the reason very well. This lord doesn't like to be played in other people's hand."

"Your lordship can only blame yourself for having a low IQ" GU Mei Ya snorted.

Xie Jing Shen startled. It has been a long time since someone talked to him like that. He really admired the youth's courage.

Jian gongzi suddenly darted forwards and aiming a punch for him. The Demon lord's pupils contracted and he caught the hand pulled the opponent forwards.

Waves of internal energy turned the room in to a disaster. The luxuriously decorated room became a mess with two people's fighting prowess.

After exchanging blows for a while neither party was able to obtain any advantage. Demon lord felt something was amiss.

With both of them fighting it should have attracted many eyes. But he could clearly sense that there weren't any people coming at all. In that movement he became distracted, Gu Mei Ya on the other hand smiled. And stuck one of his ancupture point making him immobilized.

He stood on that point looking very comical.

Gu Mei Ya smiled cunningly. "Demon lord, it really easy to play with you. I really looking forward to play with you more."

She made a very distinct voice like a shrill cry of a bird. Demon King looked at her in astonishment. And then turned in to a very raging animal.

This gongzi really dares to play tricks on him.

He secretly started to turn the internal energy in his body.

The door was opened. A man stepped in bringing Lan Wu inside. Who was bound up and unconscious?

Demon lord was stunned.

Jian gongzi smiled. "You should always put up your guard. No matter where you are. You really came in to my territory and started a fight in a straightforward manner. Tsk tsk. Let me tell you. You should always be diligent."

Xie Jing Shen glared at the youth with cold eyes. "You really are a cunning fox."

"Your anger on being deceived by me. You came here without any preparations. Tell me whose fault is this after all." Gu Mei Ya shook her head in disappointment.

"I really respect you. I have heard how cruel you are and I know you never hurt innocent. You have my respect. And it was never my intention to deceive you. It's really great to have met you. Your abilities are really admirable. We will compare notes when both are in a fair play."

Xie Jing Shen looked at the youth in surprise. He really thought he would take advantage of his situation right now. By removing his mask. But the youth telling him that he was admired?

Is he playing another trick?

Gu Mei Ya nodded at him. "We will see each other again if fate wills" then she leapt out of the window and disappeared.

The man held something to Lan Wu's nose and he woke up.

The man saluted for the Demon lord and left.

In the broken room only he and the subordinate left.

Lan Wu immediately try to free himself. At the same time demon king became free. He unbound Lan Wu.

Lan Wu immediately kneeled "master please punish this subordinate."

Xie Jing Shen only felt little off. "What happened?"

Lan Wu answered "master after you left people in the inn suddenly charged in to the room and stuck all of us in to unconscious."

Demon lord only nodded. "Prepare to go back"

Lan Wu looked up in surprise. "Master what do you mean?"

"No need make any movement against the Wan Ya pavilion." And he strode out.

Lan Wu was surprised. Usually master would always settle a slight grievance he suffered. But today he let go Jian gongzi. Even after being tricked twice.

He stood up and followed his master outside.

Xie Jing Shen only stayed there for few movements and he galloped his horse towards the capital. The first time he met a person who was so unique. Who stood up to her principles in any situation? Such a person is worth being befriended.

On the road, Gu Mei Ya had already rode a quite distance from the Yongjin.

She really wanted to find who this demon lord is. But he had suffered under her hand quite unexpectedly. Such she didn't want to take advantage of the man.

She could only get away in hurry.

When Demon lord broke in, her men had already take action. Even without them she could have escaped the demon lord.

She wanted to leave for capital to see her Imperial concubine mother.

It time for some fun in the capital.
