Lust, like Vengeance, Demands Red 3 Nonsense Often Delay One's Own Life.

"Young lady was been silent the in the whole way back. Maybe it was too much for her." Remembering the way she was before coming back. He felt the chill again. Even though he and his wife have cared for her since she was a baby, the restlessness of his heart only grew.

"Uncle Arthur, when we pass the main street, please stop I want to buy some things."

Arthur was startled by the sudden command.

"Young lady please, the Master told us to go directly to the light sect and go home directly."

"I'll go anyway uncle, either you come along or you don't."

Arthur felt stifled, he couldn't touch the young lady casually, therefore he can not force her. But the truth is, he never needed use force with her, so he was caught unprepared. Normally any word from her dad is like a decree for her. She always held respect and awe for the general.

Even though they didn't meet often, as the general would stay on the front lines for three to four years and come back for a month, and even then, he would manage the mansion and the properties of the Cheng family. Leaving no time for contact between father and daughter. She never disobeyed half a word.

But instead of thinking too much, Arthur just accompanied her.

He actually felt happy she wanted to go shopping, maybe she can be more like a normal young woman from now on?

Two hours after, they reached the mansion. Arthur went directly to the main quarters to report. Whilst Zhi Rui went to her quarters to examine the things she bought.

The maids felt weird by the amiable greetings. Usually, the miss is very rigid and serious about it.

Zhi Rui went alone she had no personal maid. The old Zhi Rui believed one has to do everything by yourself, as using servants are frivolous and lazy. not the god's way of life.

"Such a naive girl, half of the things she did was seeking praise from her dad, the other half is trying to please light sect. though she was raised by uncle Arthur's wife. With her dad's way to deal with her, it isn't weird she ended up like this." She thought to herself.

While Zhi Rui called the servants to quickly dust her room, General Cheng Feng Yuan was receiving the detailed report.

---------

Hearing about Zhi Rui being replaced by the princess, Feng yuan didn't show any reaction. Even with the detailed description of his daughter weird laugh and vomiting, he did not blink. Only when he heard she carried on with her wishes despite told her father's order, did he showed an amused expression.

Feng yuan didn't tell him off for the delay, he only told Arthur to summon Zhi Rui.

Thinking she was still in the entrance of the manor eager to see her father like always, Arthur went to call her. Hearing from the maid she went directly to her room. He got someone to call her, then waited by the master's quarter's door. Her weird behavior kept scratching at his stomach.

----------

After dusting her room, Zhi Rui started changing clothes. Just as she took out her dress, she heard the summon from the door. Knowing it was the new little servant she smiled.

"Come in"

The little boy didn't think and opened the door. Only to see the naked young lady smiling coldly at him, he stood in a daze. Suddenly he threw his head on the ground and start begging for forgiveness.

Zhi Rui not covering herself at all, chuckled."Wait outside until I'm done, and stop kowtowing."

"Y-yes young lady." stammered the boy

Done dressing. She met the horror-stricken eleven-year-old boy She looked at him coldly.

"The maids heard all of your pleadings. They're probably wondering what you did wrong. What punishment do you think the general will bestow on you and your family, little thing?"

The boy grew pale, his legs gave in. he mumbled, "B-but Young lady is the one who told me to come in."

"You can try and tell people that."

The boy had tears streaming down in despair. He knew there was no such way.

"I can let you go, boy, on the condition that you'll do what I tell you to, regardless of what it is. understood?"

The boy suddenly stood up with vigor, nodding nonstop.

If he didn't, she will kill him. Even if he doesn't care for himself, he cares for his family.

"Then listen well. five minutes after I enter the main quarters you attract the maids and Aunt Xue away from there. Use whatever means you want." Zhi Rui instructed.

"aunt Xue?" the boy asked.

"Uncle Arthur's wife, the one managing the maids?" Zhi Rui said

"Y-yes!" the boy said, then went away.

Zhi Rui saw the boy away with cold green eyes.

The threat of death often brings out people's hidden potential.

She laughed.

----------

Cheng Feng Yuan felt amused again at his daughter's behavior, it's been fifteen minutes he called her and she hasn't come in yet. Though he can hear she giggling with her aunt near the entrance.

He doesn't know why she's doing it, but it's amusing that she's throwing this passive/aggressive tantrum toward him.

"Master, Young lady is here."

Before he could acknowledge and tell her to enter, She barged in.

"Thank you for the door uncle Arthur." she smiled brightly.

But no one answered. She was wearing a black dress that reached her knees, with sleeves that ended on her elbows, leaving just one long piece of cloth hanging, her arms and legs were left bare. She made a single braid with her ebony hair leaving it hanging on her chest. together with her emerald green eyes and slightly rich red lips. She looked skimpy yet decent.

"It does not matter who, man or woman both would be moved by her."

Feng Yuan thought. Soon he composed himself and sent Arthur to stay outside.

Feng Yuan saw she didn't sit nor offer to serve him tea by his side as usual. He frowned and said.

"I see that being replaced by Wang Lei Gu has shocked you, seeing as you are showing half your body and lacking respect towards your father."

But she didn't answer instead, she asked rhetorically

"Father always brings uncle Arthur to the front line, it could be said he's the most useful, wise and trustable, aide Father has. Right?"

Feng Yuan frowned deeper at her pointless question.

But before he answered, with his inner core evolved to the fourth level he could hear a commotion and the maids including Arthur's wife going away. But he saw Arthur stood at the door and knew it was nothing serious.

Though she saw him pause, she didn't ask why. Instead, she carried on

"Aunt and uncle have taken care of me since mother died when I was a child. It can be said that I owe them my life. Right, dad?"

Feng Yuan was fed up "Did being defeated by someone who's better, messed with your head? Stop saying nonsense."

Instead of seeing her hurt expression. He saw her cold emotionless face.

"Uncle Arthur can you please come in for a second, I need you to attest to something for my father."

Zhi Rui spoke aloud.

Once he entered Zhi Rui called Arthur to sit at the square tea table.

"No young lady, I don't want to intrude."

"Please sit, Uncle Arthur." Zhi Rui insisted.

Even with his restlessness growing by the second, Arthur still sat down.

Feng Yuan was watching, trying to understand his daughter.

Suddenly when Zhi Rui was passing behind Arthur she extended her hands and two square pieces of papers glued to each of Arthur's ear.

Before he could understand anything, the horrible pain came from both sides and everything went black. As Arthur stopped moving Zhi Rui grabbed his head and smashed it on the corner of the table hitting exactly on the soft part of the skull making sure he is bleeding profusely.

Cheng Feng yuan was paralyzed looking at the used lowest level lightning rune, questioning his mind.

His daughter sat across from him and poured tea for herself while Arthur's blood started to smell throughout the room.

"Now daddy. I think we can stop with the nonsense."

A beautiful cold smile on her face.
