The Princess And The Lord

Jin Kai didn't know when he had hated Jin Hao, since he could remember his mother always reminded him to be careful of Jin Hao because Jin Hao would take everything he owned, be it his father's love, the respect of the elders, also his position as clan leader.

Jin Kai remembered the first time his mother hit him when Jin Hao's cultivation surpassed him, his mother's actions only got worse when Jin Kai began to show his skills as an alchemist.

Day and night Jin Kai would train, during that time his mother would force him to drink all the elixirs and pills she could get to speed up his cultivation but still, he couldn't surpass Jin Hao, he didn't understand why everything was so easy for Jin Hao meanwhile he had to desperately try so he could maintain his parent's love.

Therefore to vent his frustration Jin Kai often bullied Jin Hao, he tore the book he was reading, throw mud on Jin Hao's clothes, humiliated him in the middle of a family gathering, Jin kai had even gathered other children to beat Jin Hao but for some reason, Jin Hao never fighting back but Jin Kai knows it was not out of fear, h knew that for sure because Jin Hao never showed fear, anxiety or pain in his eyes, sometimes he shows annoyance but never fear so then why did Jin Hao never fight back?

One day Jin Kai couldn't take it anymore he shouted at Jin Hao angrily "Why don't you fight back!" his face turn red from piling up frustration, why did Jin Hao never reacts to his bullying "Your cultivation is not bad, so why you never fight back!"

Jin Hao calmly stood from the ground then patted the dirt from his messy robes after getting beat up by Jin Kai's little gang again, Jin Hao then turn his head at Jin Kai and then briefly said "You're not worthy"

<strong>'I'M NOT WORTHY - I'M NOT WORTHY -I'M NOT WORTHY!'</strong>

"What do you think brother, am I worthy now?!" Jin kai repeatedly attacked Jin Hao while laughing like a madman "See how strong I am, you and everyone here will bear witness to my strength, you should be honored!"

Jin Hao rolled his eyes then muttered nonchalantly, "Yeah, whatever..."

Jin Hao's indifferent answer sparked anger within Jin Kai like wildfire 'Even now he still doesn't acknowledge me'

Jin Kai plunged his sword into the ground then pulled it and a large stone was thrown at Jin Hao, Jin Hao swiftly split the stone into pieces but Jin Kai took the opportunity to attack Jin Hao with his sword.

Jin Hao barely managed to dodge, still, Jin Hao managed to step aside but Jin Kai's sword grazed his cheek, in slow motion their gazes collided. Jin kai swung his giant sword in the air creating a sharp thin air that ran in Jin Hao's direction.

Jin Hao stopped his movement and then hit the ground with his palm suddenly a stone pillar rising from the ground blocked Jin Kai's attack.

As the stone pillar break the two brothers aimed their swords at the same time, soon the tip of their blades collided, and with the strong impact from their power spread like a gust of wind

Jin Kai smirked, "It's time for you to kneel before me"

"No, the ground is too dirty for me" Jin Hao replied nonchalantly.

Jin Kai gritted his teeth he released his dark energy a giant ball made of black poison exploded causing Jin Hao to be flung into the air but Jin hao turned his body and then landed on the half-wrecked roof.

"Face me brother!" Jin Kai charged toward Jin Hao with all his might.

Jin kai's gaze turned wild, he drew his sword at Jin Hao voraciously, he attacked like crazy while blocking each of Jin Kai's attacks which were getting faster and faster, on the other hand, 's Jin hao's expression became tense and his movements became weaker due to Jin Kai's fierce attack.

Jin Kai became more excited at the end he managed to push Bei Li Yan to the ground and his body was dragged backward, Jin Hao then plunged his sword into the ground to stop his movement, nevertheless, Jin Hao got hurt thus he clenched his chest while glaring at Jin Kai.

Jin Kai finally got the reaction he wanted happily launching another attack, he leaps into the air and then slammed his sword on Jin Hao's head, all of a sudden Jin Hao's figure disappeared.

Jin Kai's eyes widen in shock but before he could comprehend what happened a sword pierced his chest from behind, Jin Kai look down at the silver blade mixed with black blood, behind him Jin Hao pierce his sword deeper into Jin Kai's chest.

"You...." Jin Kai growled as he turns his head behind his shoulder.

"You haven't changed..." Jin Hao snickered "Overconfident and happy too soon" Jin Hao then swiftly pulled his sword from Jin Kai's body and blood splattered on the ground with a blackish color soon after Jin Kai fell on his knee with his shoulder slumped weakly, he slowly lifts his head with eyes shining with fury he stares at Jin Hao who calmly walk in front of him while wiping his sword with clean cloth "You...fool me"

"You made it so easy," Jin Hao said as he threw the dirty cloth on the ground.

Jin Kai laughed bitterly, "You always treat me like a fool"

Jin Hao then snorted while rolling his eyes "Oh please don't flatter yourself, I treat everyone like a fool...except my mistress and my Lord of course" Jin Hao shrugged nonchalantly Jin Hao wasn't kidding he treated everyone like an idiot just ask the other king's palace.

"It's not over yet…" Jin Kai's eyes glint defiantly.

"Where's Jin Gu?" Jin Hao had stopped calling Jin Gu's father ever since his mother died and he left him, he looked around him and something dawned on his mind, "There was no news about him after he entered closed-door training, I thought with all this commotion he should be here but he didn't come... did you kill him?" Jin Hao's tone was flat without the slightest hint of anger, just a hint of curiosity.

Jin Kai chuckle then say: "Yes...and half of the Jin family includes Zhuang Wei Wei"

"Figures!" Jin Hao said in a flat tone as he didn't sound surprised at all.

"Do you still care about our father?" Jin Kai sarcastically said.

"Jin Gu?" Jin Hao raised his brows "No, it's just pitty I don't kill him with my own hand, your mother also" there's a remote coldness brimmed in Jin Hao's eyes he really wish he could kill them with his own hands after what they did to his mother and Jin Hua mother.

"But you care with them, doesn't it? If not you will not kill them to turn yourself into Lesser-Demon only by sacrificing something you love you can turn into a Lesser-Demon…so" Jin Kai tilted his head "Is it worth it?"

"The world will end only by changing into a demon we can survive…." Jin Kai said.

"What's wrong with dying, is not like we can live forever" Jin Hao pursed his lips "Other than survival what else the Demon promised you, there must be more cause I know you were greedy as hell"

Jin Kai sizes Jin Hao with an amused detachment then he chuckles "Brother - brother, I thought you never care about me but turn out yo knew me better than anyone...."

Jin Hao remains indifferent he just wants to digged more information about Lao Min Na so he provokes Jin kai further "So...tell me...brother, surprise me?" he gives a challenging look.

"Well, after everything is set and done the Demon....he will bless me the same way he blessed Lao Min Na?" Jin Kai grinned from ear to ear.

"What blessing?" Jin Hao frowned.

"The blessing of rebirth..." there was a spark of excitement on Jin Kai's face.

Jin Hao squints his eyes, there are so many unimaginable things happened lately so he can differentiate which one is true or fake anymore so he asks again "Rebirth....?" Jin Hao wants to make sure he hears right.

Jin Kai stifle a laugh then pulled his body to stand up, he took a deep breath soon after the black miasma from several hybrid beasts nearby sucked into his lungs and the Beast shrieked in pain before their bodies shrivel like mummies at the same time the bleeding holes on Jin Kai's chest gradually closed.

"Why do you think he suddenly severed her relationship with Zhao Mu Fan, where he had the courage to go against her own family, how he possessed the abilities as an alchemist, why she approached Zhao Yi Chen and how did she know about Long Ming's identity that even the emperor didn't know...how a woman who has spent her entire life in a secluded boudoir knows any of this, did you never suspicious?"

"Well...rebirth never cross my mind" Jin Hao cooly answered.
