"What do you mean by sending Misty Cloud Clan over to attack Xiao Tianyao's mansion?!" Xiao Zi demanded an explanation from Modama.

The two of them were standing face to face in the back garden of the east palace. Under the pale light of the moon, Modama's expression was so scary.

He walked toward Xiao Zi slowly as if he would pounce on him in any time.

"I will kill that ungrateful daughter of mine." He said in eerie tone.

Modama was surprised when he knew Qianru had the antidote of the poison that he had given Bai Yuyan.

He didn't believe it at first, but there was no other person that knew about this newly invented poison except from Gong Xu.

There must be something wrong with that if the other person knew how to cure this kind of poison.

He had beatened up Gong Xu, but that stubborn young man wasn't willing to spill any word about it, thus he had to ask his spy to check what was the problem with his two children.

And the news that he got truly shocked him.

His daughter had betrayed him and his son had been helping her. On top of that, Luna was pregnant. She didn't abort the child!

The potion that Modama had given to her must be enough to get rid of the child, but the fact said otherwise and he didn't need to use his head to think what Gong Xu had done behind his back.

If it wasn't because of the fact he still needed Gong Xu's skill with poison and medicine, he would have died by now instead of being injured.

"Kill Luna?" Xiao Zi asked in shock, as far as he knew, Luna was treasured by Modama because of her abiity to control other people's mind, Modama and she were the last survivor of the Mind Controller's clan. "Why do you need to kill her?"

The only thing that past through Xiao Zi's mind was 'such a waste to kill a beauty like her'.

"She had betrayed me!" Modama roared in his anger. He wouldn't have thought that she would fall for Xiao Tianyao for real and now she was carrying his child!

Rather than to be a grandfather from the child that resented, it was much better if he finished her once and for all.

He didn't need a betrayer or a blood line from Xiao's family. They were disgusting

"I will kill her. I swear, and I will make her death miserable." Modama hissed those heartless words as though Luna wasn't his daughter. He didn't care anymore about that.

He just wanted his revenge and his own daughter had ruined it. Not to mention she was carrying a dirty blood of Xiao's family that he hated the most. He really wanted to kill her along with the unborn baby.

That stupid daughter of his!

Xiao Zi's eyes dimmed, though he was a heartless man, but to kill his own blood wasn't something that he would do, it took another level of ruthlessness for doing so. He couldn't agree with that.

First because it was a waste to kill a beauty and talented woman like Luna and second, they could still use that woman for their own benefit, it was only a matter of what schemes that they needed to perform.


"You can do whatever you want with them, but once The Black Sword Clan caught a wind about the involvement of Misty Cloud Clan then I will doom. And you will not get anything from this too. So, don't act recklessly, there was another important matter that I need to think through." Xiao Zi said that with face that devoid from any emotion. "Don't involve me in this." Then he left Modama alone.

Modama's lips curled into a devilish smile when he saw Xiao Zi's retreating back. Ther would be a time when this man stopped talking to him like this.

Xiao Jun returned to northern fortress after two days, during that time he visited Xiao Tianyao one more time and adjusted the guards around his mansion for his protection.

He didn't talk much with Luna as Luna also didn't wish to have a conversation with him, so their discussion was limited about Xiao Tianyao's condition.

Xiao Tianyao was still unconscious, but he got better, and it was good news.

Because the war was getting closer, Xiao Jun left capital city after he settled everything, but before that, he was having a secret discussion with Liu Wei.

This time Qianru saw him left the mansion, she just allowed to see him off from the gates because as soon as Xiao Jun left, they would lock down the mansion.

The attack was meant for Xiao Tianyao and Luna, but there was no pain to take a precaution.

"Write something to me." Xiao Jun said to Qianru while hugging her body. He would miss her, but this time he would leave with mind and heart at ease, not like the last time.

"I will." Qianru nodded. "I will write many pages for you."

"That sounds great." Xiao Jun chuckled. "Alright, I will leave now."

Xiao Jun kissed Qianru forehead before he galloped with his horse. He took this journey back alone as he left Liu Wei at Qianru's side like before. At least with this he knew that Qianru was protected well as he knew Liu Wei ability.

This would be the last time for Qianru to see Xiao Jun before they would meet again a few months later.

*** 

It has been three months since Xiao Jun left the capital city and a month since the war had started. During that period of time, there was at least four another attempts of attack on Xiao Tianyao's mansion.

However, fortunately all of those attempts could be ward off.

And now, Luna was eight months pregnant and she had been waiting for her labour day, slightly nervous, but still fine.

After Gong Xu sent her, her medicine and the antidote, he was caught and Luna had never seen him again. She was afraid something bad fell on her brother, but seeing the situation it most likely their father wouldn't kill him yet.

And since then, every month it would be Lin who supplied her medicine as Gong Xu had told her, in case something like this happen. However, Luna needed to take more precaution about her motive to help her, because this woman was hard to read.

She could be evil one time and be the most kind person in another time.

Qianru had never visit her again as promised, but she could understand this because the situation wasn't on their favor.

Tonight was like the usual stary night and Xiao Tianyao wasn't in the room as he had something to be done inside his study while Luna embroidered a warm baby clothes because it almost winter.

Everything looked fine and the sound of the branches hit the window was the only sound that came along with the howling wind from the outside.

Luna didn't realize it at first, but the moment she felt something wasn't right it was too late and Modama had stood not far from her.

He had his hands behind his back while looking at Luna with his creepy eyes as if he could devour her in any time.

Modam bemused at Luna's big stomach and the things in her hand. He had never seen her with that kind of things before.

Since they were only a child, Luna had been taught to use knife and dagger, not embroider stupid stuff that she was holding right now.

With a soft thud the things in Luna's hand fell to the ground when her wide eyes looked at her father, the person that she wished she would have never seen again.

"You are doing well my daughter…" Modama drawled as he walked toward Luna lazily like the hunter approached their prey.
