Chapter 839 - Truce



[In front of someone else's manor?] Lory said sarcastically

[What? you know humans like to exercise anywhere!] Girsha argues.

[Yes, In our world not here!] Lory replied [The people of this world don't exercise!] Even if they did, they weren't running around the streets like the people in his old world, she understand well enough to know that the people in this world only run from bad people or chase bad people.

Girsha snorted then he turned his gaze back to the strange old man below, [What are you going to do then….? you know you are the least his favorite person) Girsha cynically said.

On the other hand, Lory never held any grudges or hatred towards Tian Meng Ji, other than perhaps badmouthing her behind her back and disapproving of her relationship with Zhao Li Xin however, Tian Meng Ji never actually hurt her.

Tian Meng Ji was one of the very few people who helped Zhao Li Xin through his worst time so why would she hate him, instead she always felt grateful for what Tian Meng Ji did for Zhao Li Xin.

.

Lory let out a long exhale, then she lightly jumped off the roof and landed smoothly on the ground.

[Where are you going, girl?] Girsha called out to her.

Lory waved her hand without looking back as he jogs to where the front gate was.

Tian Meng Ji was a strong cultivator even though he was not as strong as his own disciple Zhao Li Xin or stronger than the four Palace Kings and the Mong brothers due to their extreme efforts to increase their cultivation but Tian Meng Ji was still one of the strong people on the continent.

Therefore he should have realized when someone was watching him from afar, unfortunately, he was too agitated to notice anything around him and that was why he almost jumped in fright when Lory suddenly poked his shoulder.

"Heeekhhh!" Tian Meng Ji unconsciously let out a strange scream.

"Hello~" pretending not to notice anything strange Lory smiled sweetly at the embarrassed old man.

"You...Why are you here?!" Tian Meng Ji was jittering as he searched for the right words.

The elders of this world liked to act dignified and care too much for their own image therefore Lory refrained from teasing him even though her tongue was itching to say something.

Lory scratch her nose then she tilted her head "Do you want to have a drink while waiting Li Xin"

the way lory talked to an elder was improper and too lax, Tian Meng Ji want to scowl at her but when he see her pure clear eyes he swallow his words, "I only drink high-quality tea" he raised his chin arrogantly.

"Okay" Lory casually shrugs her shoulder as she replies shortly then she turns around and walks to the front gate.

Tian Meng Ji groaned under his breath before he follow Lory.

The gatekeepers frown as they see Tian Meng Ji approaching, their Lord clearly orders them not to let Tian Meng Ji enter the manor ever again, however it was the young madam who seems invited the old man and the young madam position in the Hei Shen is above everyone including their Lord hence they did not dare to stop Tian Meng Ji.

Lory then took Tian Meng Ji to the outdoor lounge in the garden, for a second the old man was amazed by the unique design he had never seen before he knew it wasn't Zhao Li Xin's taste because he knew well enough how stiff and boring a disciple's taste was so it must be her, Tian Meng Ji glance at Lory.

Before she take a seat Lory raised her hand as she make a polite gesture, "Please have a seat" she motioned for him to sit on the chair across from the couch.

A moment later Ling Zi came with freshly brewed tea but lory whispered to her and Ling Zi widened her eyes then she look at Lory in surprise, Lory then give meaningful smile, understood,  Ling Zi nodded her head then she left without serving the new fresh tea.

Tian Meng Ji didn't bother with the exchange between Ling Zi and Lory,  he was rather curious about Lory so sat properly with his back straight, he scrutinize Lory as if he search for any abnormality from her.

A normal teenager should feel intimidated by tian Meng Ji's fierce gaze too bad Lory is not a real teenager, she is a woman with an early thirty-year-old mind moreover she has been through so much that it took more than one tough old man to scare her.

"Where is my disciple?" Tian Meng Ji opened the first conversation.

"He has an appointment so he's out" Lory replied calmly.

"Is it because Wei Zu Tian is important?" Tian Meng Ji heard what happened during the show in the city square.

Lory smiled faintly, "Among other things..." she explained that Zhao Li Xin faced many problems apart from Wei Zu Tian.

"Is that matter involve you too?" he narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"More or less..." Lory answer honestly.

Tian Meng Ji's expression turns sour, "If you give her so much trouble why don't you leave him?"

Lory should be angry by his rude comment but strangely she didn't feel offended because it prove Tian Meng Ji cared for Zhao Li Xin.

"If I left him what do you think Zhao Li Xin would do?" Lory smile wryly.

Tian Meng Ji choked on his own words, he actually knew what would happen, with Zhao Li Xin's temperament he would never let her go even if she told him to go.

"Beside...I have already made a promise that I will never leave him alone" Lory said with a gentle voice.

"I think you do that for your own selfishness" Tian Meng Ji scoffed.

"Love tends to make people that way…" she replied with a soft smile. 

Lory's blunt words should have angered Tian Meng Ji but seeing how honest and calm he was, it was hard for him to find fault with him, after all, everything she said was true. A minute later Ling Zi came with freshly brewed tea then she carefully served the tea on the table and when she finished she politely bowed and then left quietly. 

immediately a fragrant aroma permeated the air, just from the smell Tian Meng Ji knew it was high-quality tea. Lory raised her teacup then slowly drank her tea, her brows slightly knitted but then she gently put the teacup back on the table with subtle movement.

Tian Meng Ji peeks at Lory's expression there is no contempt, wariness, or anger hidden in her eyes is like watching the lake surface without any ripples.

"This is not your real look right, I see your real look when you fight with the Sanguan family" 

Lory smiled faintly then rubbed her right wrist with his thumb and the shapeshifter spell on her faded and revealed her true appearance, Tian Meng Ji was dumbfounded as he see a woman with unblemished snow-white skin, she got big purple eyes that glittering like precious gemstones, her lips have the same color like a peach blossom, and her hair… her wavy long hair reach to her waist but what surprised him the most was when the sun touched her hair and the black hairr changed into a deep blue color.

Even though he had seen Lory before but it was from afar and the situation was rather chaotic so he didn't pay close attention to how Lory looked like but now that he saw her up close he was blown away and his breath caught in his throat, she reminded him of the painting of the moon goddess he saw when he was a child.

"Are you human?" he looked at her without blinking.

"I am a human" Lory chuckled.
