The Unknown Beauty 180 Lies 1

"Not only that, we are also surrounded," said Silver. He looked around, jumping high and could see many sea kings surrounding the city.

'Wow…! They are so fast!' thought Guo Jinsong. 'Even Maoli is having a hard time catching up!'

Hua Maoli and Guo Jinsong has joined them to help protect her but it seems she doesn't need protection. The three in front of them are strong. They are unable to read their rank of spiritual energy and they are having trouble keeping up with them.

"Yu Yan!"

A voice was in front of them. It was Gu Xiang, confused at the situation.

"What's happening?"

"It's Min Fu-Han. Don't worry. I will take care of it. Go and help the others take the citizens of Chu to a safe place. Of course… not where we're staying at," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Right. Xie Rong just told us about it," said Gu Xiang. He nodded and followed her orders. It was very strange for Hua Maoli and Guo Jinsong to see this. Not only is Gu Xiang, the first general of the w.a.n.g Empire is listening to a 'friend' of the w.a.n.g empire, but she is also younger than him and listened to her order without anymore questions.

"If you b.u.mp into Xie Rong again, tell him to come over," said Lin Yu Yan. Bu Xiang nodded his head and went on his way.

'What kind of influence does she have in the w.a.n.g Empire?' thought Hua Maoli.

"Sister Yu Yan!" said Kenzhi.

"Ah! Kenzhi! Has the others…?" said Lin Yu Yan. Victoria and Knight showed up behind him.

"Yes! We have already started getting people to safety," said Kenzhi.

'Who are they? Bright orange hair and green hair? That's not common,' thought Hua Maoli.

"Knight, Victoria. Come with me. Kenzhi, can you get Wu Lang and Xie Rong to come to me once you guys are done? Also come along with them please," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Yes, I will. And the Medical sect. is also helping us with the evacuation. Quan Su Wen and Chu Yang has headed to the palace to warn the emperor," said Kenzhi.

"Perfect! She needs a good fight with her family to finally gain her power," said Lin Yu Yan. The others had no idea what she was talking about but Hua Maoli and Guo Jinsong was more focused on a different detail of what Kenzhi has said.

"Chu Yang!? THE CHU YANG, FIRST GENERAL?" said Guo Jinsong.

"Yes," said Lin Yu Yan. She didn't continue and starts running and heads straight to the charging Sea King. Han Bingwen and Silver runs after her and Kenzhi left to finish his job.

"Wait! We need a plan!" said Guo Jinsong, running after them. Hua Maoli was getting worried. Not only will the emperor has to face Minister Quan himself, the head of the Tang Pharmacy and the first general of Chu is heading over to them. And Lin Yu Yan knows all about it!

"Hold up!" said Hua Maoli, speaking for the first time.

Lin Yu Yan stops and turn back to face him.

"Who's side are you on?" said Hua Maoli. He glares at her and places his hand on the sword on his side, ready to strike depending on her answer.

Han Bingwen was going to stand in front of her but Lin Yu Yan stopped him. She gave him a nod and a smile to a.s.sure him she is fine.

"It's hard to determine my motives," said Lin Yu Yan. "Do you want to protect your country?"

"Of course I do!" said Hua Maoli.

"Then stop wasting my time because I don't want to see death any more then I already have!" said Lin Yu Yan, yelling at him. "Hurry and move! He's getting closer!"

Hua Maoli has never seen such a beautiful lady get mad for once and in front of her man. Woman are usually composed and nice but she wasn't. Not only is she beautiful, she is strong and shows her emotions not just through expressions but also with words.

Hua Maoli's heart was pounding and was a little shocked his body is reacting this way.

"I'm… sorry. A spy witness you at the Quan residence…" said Hua Maoli, looking down not wanting to show his blus.h.i.+ng face. 'What's wrong with me….?'

"Ah… that's only because I wanted to play with him for a bit… I mean my sister-in-law is having troubles with finding ways to destroy him so I thought maybe I can help with that a little," she said smiling.

"Sister-in-law?" said Guo Jinsong.

"Quan Su Wen," said Lin Yu Yan. She starts moving towards the wall again as they speak.

"Huh? Isn't she engaged to Tang Shengwu?" said Guo Jinsong.

"Yes," said Lin Yu Yan.

They had to think for a while, and remembering that Tang Shengwu and Lin Yu Yan do look similar to each other.

"You and Tang Shengwu are… siblings?!" said Hua Maoli.

"Yes," said Lin Yu Yan, chuckling at their reactions. "Is real name is Lin Sheng."

"What!? The famous Lin Sheng! Who left the Lu family and took in his mother's surname," said Guo Jinsong. 'That's him!?'

"My brother is that famous?" said Lin Yu Yan.

"Wait! You're a Lu!?" said Hua Maoli, looking at Lin Yu Yan. 'Not only is she Lady Lin's daughter, she is also a Lu! One of the top 10 family names! Just like mine!'

"Hey! We need to keep going!' said Lin Yu yan getting impatient.

"Ah, right!" said the two and followed her.

'Wait… she still didn't answer my question..' thought Hua Maoli as they head to the gates.

"What was that noise?" said one of the ministers. He was getting concerned because the noise was getting continuous and the ground was now shaking.

The guards in the palace is now running around the palace, confused at the situation. The doors were closed but everyone in the meeting could still hear the footsteps rus.h.i.+ng around.

The the doors swung open and someone rushed in. It was Quan Xue, Quan Jian Min and Quan Wei-Kang.

"Emperor! There are hundreds of Sea Kings in the area! We are surrounded!" said Quan Xue. He has been thinking for a while and wants to get rid of his father. 'I can't go on any longer, Father! It's time to end this!'

The emperor eyes widen and the other ministers are panicking. Quan Jian Min was trying to stop him from speaking out loud and Quan Wei-Kang was the one stopping Quan Jian Min from saying anything to their father.

Minister Quan glares at him with hate. 'You dumb son! You're going to ruin my plans.'

"Why are you doing this!?" whispered Quan Jina Min to Quan Wei-Kang.

"Because…" said Quan Wei-Kang, determine to finally speak his thoughts. "I want to get married to the woman I love."

"Wh? What does that has to do with this situation!?" Quan Jian Min said.

"Do you really think we are curse?" said Quan Xue. The vices of the ministers and the others panicking were blocking their voices to be heard from their father.

"What… do you mean?" said Quan Jian Min, confused why his brothers are acting like this.

"Father… is having us marry people so that crazy man could use them as test subjects!" said Quan Wei-Kang.

"You-You're lying!" said Quan Jian Min. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"He's not Jian Min. Wei-Kang is right. I witnessed it…" said Quan Xue. "My wife… My Ting… father said the doctor would heal her… then that crazy man walks in and gave her medicine saying that it would heal her but… she died!"

"It true… The man gave the rest of the Ma family the same medication and they all… died. I remember the exact words he said as he brought the bodies into his lab saying, 'another failure,'" said Quan Wei-Kang.
