A couple weeks passed as Xing and Chenglei separated and in a place where all there was darkness around, a woman was held against her will by some local thugs. The musty smell of the dark warehouse she was held gave her sneezes. Her hands were tied behind her back and her legs were tied too. They thought it would be a better idea to tie her eyes so she won't figure out where she is. She was held with her pouch filled with gold as she wandered in the wrong part of the forest which is the hiding place of these thugs.

"Hey lady! How much would we get as ransom for you?", one of the thugs in the gang that held her asked playing with her artistically embroidered pouch.

"As much as you want.. Please let me go...",the meek voice of the Woman they held made them snigger. She was curled up to a ball with her back plastered to the wall and her face was buried in her knees. She really looked like she was scared of them and if those thugs had a heart, the wrinkled purple silk robes she was wearing and her crunched position would make their heart melt.

"When is our boss coming? He wanted to take a look at her... Judging by her looks... I bet he won't let her go... She'll fetch a lot in the market..."

The men started to appraise her and the woman supposedly held against her will, rolled her eyes at the thugs as she knew who has trapped who.

Chenglei who was supposed to return to the capital city couldn't as he felt the need to confront that woman who lied to him and cheated.

How dare she? As a married woman,she tried to seduce me and even kissed me. I'm not letting her go! I will definitely bring her back to the capital city and hold her forever in my Manor!

Chenglei didn't understand why every fibre of him wanted to posses her and the urge he had to chase her but he had no time to ponder over it.

With his heart filled with determination, Chenglei followed the trail of the multitude of carriages left. He wondered how with all the wealth she is showing off, she hasn't been attacked yet. Little did he know she is constantly protected by the shadow guards of the Heavenly Flowers Palace as asked of the crown prince of the Fox Clan by the patron god of their kingdom.

Chenglei learnt that the carriages have entered the Wind Kingdom along the borders of Eastern Province. But he still wasn't convinced that woman is actually in the carriage. And just as he predicted there were reports that a gang from the earth kingdom who used to be the middlemen who sold drugs and poisons and whose leader were one of the many who had contact with Shihong was nearby.

So he decided to take a look at that gang just in case. But he could not find the exact location of those hideout of those gangsters in the forest.

Just as he was worried if that woman might be in trouble, a little maid who looked similar to the maid of that woman, ran towards him.


"Lord Li!", she knelt on front of him panting and still continued, "My Lady!... They... They got milady!... Please save her...!"

Chenglei felt his heart being squeezed as the maid told him that and he immediately darted towards the direction the maid pointed, like an arrow shot from a bow, on his horse.

What kind of trouble is that woman in?

He didn't hear the maid's shout from behind saying that there were many men in there. He didn't care because he was willing to face even an army right now to save that woman. His subordinates who were with him followed him wondering about the odd enthusiasm of their brother Wolf.

Xing who could not see, could sense at least three men in the room she was in and some twenty odd men outside the abandoned Manor they've been using as their lair.

Xing had everything under control. She knew once she waved her money in front of them, they'll get her and she wanted the leader of the gang to be dead. That one was the one involved in the switching of the medicines of the pharmacy three years back and among the others only this one escaped and formed a gang of his own. But after the death of Shihong, he became a robber as his network was cut off. She had plans to go to the capital city after she finished this task.

"Well... Well... We sure have a beauty here...", a raspy voice was heard and Xing could feel a man approaching her. Xing could feel a little pain in her lower abdomen and wondered what that was about but decided to ignore it as she had more important thing to do.

That should be the leader... Xing smirked.

She had already untied the ties in her hands and her feet and is still only pretending to be bound. The moment he got near her, she was planning to plunge the sharp stick She had in her hand into his heart.

She had sent Xiao Mei to fetch some officers to arrest the rest of the men. They never worked for Shihong and they might know the details about the traffickers in their area and so she was willing to let them go alive.

"Please let me go! My family will pay you any amount of money....", she spoke with her voice meek and her entire body trembling to feign fear..

She always could act!

She could sense Bai Li on the roof as he'd sometimes help her around. These days he was too busy dealing with the troubles in his realm and he'd visit her only occasionally. Guess he was free today!

" You are one fine piece of a woman... Maybe I should have a taste of you before I sell you... Where else can I find a woman as... ", that leader spoke and Xing could feel his hand stretching towards her and her grip on the stick tightened.

Like I will let a man like you to touch me!

But before she reacted and before his hands get to her, she felt a swift movement of a sword and she felt a splash of warm sticky fluid on her face and the scream of the man echoed in the room and a strong scent of blood entered her nose.

"Come on! Why did you dirty my clothes?", Xing grumbled as she felt irked by the blood on her face. There was no reply and only a sound of a sword stabbing the heart of the leader was heard followed by the screams of the other men running at them and swords clashing.

Xing sensed Bai Li still on the roof and so the man in front of her must be...

As always... He could not help but protect me... MY PRINCE!

Chenglei who noticed that abandoned building realised they must be keeping that woman here and he left the horse and sneaked in to take a look. The sight he saw made him shake with anger.

That woman looked pathetic when she pleaded the man and the dirty man was about to touch her face.

How dare he! No one touches her!

The next moment he chopped the hand that was about to touch her. Only when that man died did he feel relieved.

Xing realised it was her Prince standing in front of her and she still pretended to be tied and she could sense him squatting in front of her and there was a silence for some time between them when the surroundings were filled with the noises of the fighting men.
