Law Of Creation

DUAKKKKK…. A sound of a broken wall.

"YOU SAID THERE IS SOME LOWLIFE THAT WAS AIMING HER LIFE?"

"WHO! WHO DARE! I WILL SKIN THAT PERSON! I WILL PULL ALL HIS HAIR! HOW DARE! WHERE IS IT?"

"STAR ROYAL CITY, RIGHT? I WILL GO TO WAR WITH THEM! THAT GODDAMN KING!!! SEE IF SOMETHING WORSE HAPPEN! I WILL SKIN YOUR HEAD BALD!!!"

"AND THOSE GODDAMN USELESS BRAINLESS GEEZER AT ACADEMY WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT! YOU FORCE ME TO SEND MY GRANDDAUGHTER, BUT NO ONE CAPABLE TO PROTECT HER? DON'T BLAME ME TO CASTRATE ALL OF YOU!" A various kind of swearing could be heard in the whole house.

It was not unusual for the Domain's Lord to lose his temper, but it was very unusual for him to swear from a to z. Especially, there was a word that was denouncing the current ruler of the Fire Kingdom. Everyone that heard the swearing would just lowered their head as they pretended to not hear anything.

Since what happened in the Star Royal City was hidden from domain's citizen, no one really understood the situation. Only the house's butler and maid in Xia family's house knew the precise situation.

When Xia Longyu heard the news of Mingyue, he immediately took the nearby horse to go to the Star Royal City. Seeing his father was in rush, Xia Wushan immediately took another nearby horse and followed him from behind.

After reaching the Xia family's mansion at Star Royal City, they received the information that Lan Bingyue brought Mingyue back to the domain a few hours earlier.

Throwing aside the almost dead horse pair, Xia Longyu immediately stole the nearby horse to return to the domain. Fortunately, Xia Wushan immediately compensated the owner of that horse before chasing after his dad. Again.

After reaching the domain, Xia Longyu had disappeared. So, Xia Wushan went back to the house first. Yes, there is a carriage from Xia family's mansion. Both Lan Bingyue and Mingyue should have arrived.

Xia Wushan went into the house in rush. Sensing some people around the Mingyue's room, he immediately checked the room.

And what he saw was a raging old man.

"Dad, calm down. " Xia Wushan tried to calm his old man, but it was like pouring oil into fire.

"YOU GODDAMN IMBECILE SON! SEE YOUR CUTE LITTLE DAUGHTER! HOW CAN I CALM THE F*CKIN DOWN! ARE YOU RETARD?" Xia Longyu immediately strangled Xia Wushan and lifted him up. Xia Wushan didn't expect that his old man's mood was already the worst.

".. Dad… Dad, Mingyue is resting…. Don't… Don't disturb … Her rest ….." Xia Wushan tried his best to calm his old man down. Because he was strangled, his face became pale and couldn't breathe. With so much difficulty, Xia Wushan tried to use Mingyue to his old man. And unexpectedly, it works.

"YOU! YOU! YOU DAMN USELESS! JUST DO YOUR THING!" In the end, Xia Longyu threw Xia Wushan aside.

The thrown Xia Wushan was completely tongue-tied.

[Hey! I just arrived a little later than you. How could you blame me for anything I didn't know?]

No matter what he said, it would be his fault after all. It was better for him to hide in the corner of the room to avoid Xia Longyu's line of sight.

Lan Bingyue was sitting beside Mingyue's bed while controlling Mingyue's body temperature. Ever since at Star Royal City, Mingyue's body temperature became unstable. Sometimes her temperature became so high, sometimes it would be lowered so suddenly until it was very cold. Fearing the worst, Lan Bingyue didn't dare to split her attention and focused on Mingyue's body.

Everytime Mingyue's body temperature increased, Lan Bingyue would immediately make her body temperature lowered. And when Mingyue's body temperature was lowered below the average temperature, Lan Bingyue would immediately draw the cold from Mingyue's body. This cycle had happened many times.

...

". . . . Mom?" Suddenly a soft voice could be heard in the small room. All eyes were aimed at the source of that voice. Finally, Mingyue regained her consciousness. She still had her pale face and her skin was cracked, thanks to her unstable temperature for a few days. Yes, this was her fifth days in Xia family's domain.

"Little girl, are you okay? Are you feeling bad? Come on tell your grandpa." Xia Longyu suddenly jumped in front of Mingyue, kicked Xia Wushan aside, and talked in a very soft voice. In fact, Xia Longyu's tone even more soft and delicate than the one at Gray Wolf's incident. He wanted to touch Mingyue's head, but seeing her fragile body, he took back his hand.

After trying hard to open her cracked lips again, she said a short word, " . . . . . . . Water . . . " Of course, she was almost dried up, thanks to her high body temperature.

Kicking at Xia Wushan, Xia Longyu shouted to him, "ARE YOU DEAF? DO I NEED TO REPEAT IT MYSELF? WATER! NO, NO NEED! BETTER I DO IT MYSELF!" And Xia Longyu immediately ran out of the room.

[. . .] Xia Wushan wanted to cry after being Xia Longyu's punching bag.

"… No need to force yourself. Rest properly." Lan Bingyue said to Mingyue. This was the first time Lan Bingyue spoke for these few days. She had bloodshot eyes and black bag around her eyes. She also had sunken cheeks, but she never left her attention from Mingyue.

Seeing Lan Bingyue's 'not-good-condition', Mingyue's eyes were red. She felt bad.

[How long did Mom stay awake? So many sacrifices only for me, is it worth?]

Mingyue always knew that her Mom's physical condition was not any better than her. But she could persist for a long time only to stabilize her condition.

Seemed to understand Mingyue's thinking, Lan Bingyu spoke softly, " You silly girl. No need to think a lot. Focus on your health first." She gave a beautiful smile to Mingyue. Seeing Mingyue calmed down, she sighed in relief.

[This girl is a little too intelligent than her peers.] Lan Bingyue sighed again in her mind because she didn't know whether Mingyue's intelligent would be a blessing or a curse.

...

The closed-door suddenly was kicked open and Xia Longyu came in while bringing a pot of water and an empty glass. "Here's your drink, Yueyue. Tell your grandpa how much water you need. If you need more, grandpa will refill the pot" Xia Longyu spoke with a soft voice. Anyone in the room could see the doting looks on his face.

Even Xia Wushan felt envious of her daughter.

[I have spent so many years with my old man, but this is the first time for me to see him dote someone.] Xia Wushan suddenly had the urge to cry.

After sipping the water and wetting her lips, Mingyue continued again, "Those assassins had an objective in the Green Mountain. Not me."

All people in the room were surprised by Mingyue's sentences. Who didn't know that Green Mountain was only an artificial place without any danger? But this girl said that their objective was in the Green Mountain? Did she really think that the Green Mountain was an important place? Or she was being muddle-headed because of her unstable consciousness?

Understood what the people in the room was thinking, Mingyue only continued her words, "There was definitely more than one. I met three of them."

[What! Three! And you could protect your life? Did they really an assassin?]

All of them were surprised.

"From their conversation, they said that mission completed. Other guys had been informed to return. Don't leave any trace. Disturb some animal to cover the noises. And kill anyone close to the perimeter. From their way of talking, it was definitely a group of assassins. . ."

"After they left, I was discovered by another assassin. After some hide and seek, he died." Mingyue's voice became more and more hoarse, so she took another sip of cool water.

"In the end, I ran while using this rusty necklace." Since Mingyue couldn't move her body, she asked Lan Bingyue to take the necklace from her neck.

"If I infused Elemental into this necklace, I could mask my presence. Good for hiding." Mingyue gave them a simple explanation, but all people in the room understood her meaning.

"The more I infuse, the longer the duration. Also, my presence would be almost fully concealed. As long as I took care of my trails, they won't be able to locate me in short time."

The more they heard Mingyue's explanation, their expression became more weird and weirder.

[No wonder she can run without anyone realizing.]

Xia Wushan felt bitter in his heart because he finally understood how Mingyue slipped out of the house at the time of Gray Wolf's incident.

"But, why are you so sure that they would aim for you? Aren't you covering your trails carefully?" Lan Bingyue felt something weird in Mingyue's explanation.

If they were real assassins, they would not take the risk to kill a ten years old girl if they didn't have any lead. Moreover, based on what Mingyue heard, their objective was completed. It would definitely not worth the risk. Assassin would kill when their target was the least prepared.

Nodding her head, Mingyue understood what Lan Bingyue mean. "One assassin dead, the killer should be at least as strong as the assassin. Knowing they were infiltrating Graduation Exam for little kids, usually, they didn't need to be wary of the kids. But while the kids were safe at the end of the exam, one kid returned with a very bad condition. Of course, they won't think that I was the one who killed the assassin, but I have a connection with the killer. Or at the very least, I saw the killer myself." Mingyue stopped her explanation since the people in the room was surprised with my conjecture. She took another sip.

"And I am willing to make a daring bet. Avoiding the Academy." Xia Longyu and Xia Wushan were surprised, but they didn't understand what she meant. In other hands, Lan Bingyue seemed to fall into deep thinking.

"Do you think the Academy will let you be a bait?" Lan Bingyue felt that it was possible for Academy to catch the assassin to clear their reputation. But for using their student as a bait was…

"No, It's not like they will let me be a bait, but they will make me into a bait." Mingyue smiled bitterly. After she returned to Xia family's mansion in Star Royal City, her sense of smell had recovered a little. Even though it was still under recovery, her sense of smell was limited in a small area. And she could sense a stinking danger from every personnel from Academy.

"It's not like the Academy's personnel would bring the danger to me, but they will let the danger came to me. Clearly, they didn't care about a mere untalented student. Sigh, no matter in this world or that world, all people see in others was only benefit. If there was no benefit, they would not pay any attention." Mingyue sighed in her mind.

Lan Bingyue sighed sadly. What Mingyue just said was not entirely impossible, especially for the people who cared a lot about their own reputation. No wonder she wasn't willing to stay in Star Royal City. The danger is everywhere.

". . . Little girl, in one year, you must run away." Suddenly, Xia Longyu gave all people in the room a big scare. "Leave the Xia family."
