The Unknown Beauty 149 The Drug 8

As he was saying that, his two sons has entered his room and interrupted him.

"Father! What's the matter?" said Quan Xue, the eldest son. He has gotten home and heard his father banging on the table.

"Father, I saw a lady today in town that maybe the lady you want us to look for," said Quan Wei-Kang, the second eldest. "She was wearing a mask when I was sitting down for a drink. Even the Emperor went to the same restaurant to look for her."

"Was she wearing a mask?" asked Minister Quan.

"She was," said Quan Wei-Kang.

"Where were you at that moment?" asked Minister Quan.

"The famous restaurant, the only one that has fruit on the menu. I was surprised though. She didn't look powerful. She had no spiritual energy. I couldn't sense it. But the man she was with… He had an enormous amount. I was unable to identify his strength," said Quan Wei-Kang.

"It doesn't matter. It seems he would follow Lady Lin wherever she goes," said Minister Quan.

"I saw her face," said Quan Xue.

"You did?" said the surprised Qian Wei-Kang.

"Yeah. First, second and third sister did too. I was wondering why there was such a huge crowd outside when I notice the crowd was surrounding our sisters. Then I saw her face through that window… she is gorgeous. You were right father, she really does look like Lady Lin. I think she is even more beautiful than her," said Quan Xue.

"Would you like to marry her?" said Minister Quan.

"I would… but that man… He's dangerous. He held her in his arms and gave all of us a death glare. There's no way I could, even if I was the Emperor, Father," said Quan Xue.

"It's no problem. We just have to set up a plan to get rid of that man. It should be easy with the drugs," said Minister Quan.

"Father!" a loud voice interrupted them and they heard many footsteps approaching the room.

"Father!" said Quan Jiang, the eldest daughter. "Which one of us do you think should have the beauty pill!?"

"What?" said Minister Quan.

"We couldn't decide who could have the pill so we wanted to ask you," said Quan Huan Lan second eldest daughter.

"Which one of us should have it, father?" said Quan Fen He, the third daughter.

"I don't care," said Minister Quan, sighing in annoyance. "You are all beautiful anyway."

"Urgh! That doesn't help! Just choose!" said Quan Fen He.

"Then I choose-" said Minister Quan only to be interrupted again with loud footsteps entering his room.

"Father! Big news!" said Quan Jian Min, the third son. He rushed in breathing heavily from wanting to let father know the news.

"At the auction tomorrow night, they will be selling the most amazing items in the world!"

"What items?" said Minister Quan.

"They will be selling legendary pills! Two beauty pills and two Longevity pills! And get this…. They will be selling a level zero sword!" said Quan Jian Min.

"Father! Buy us the beauty pills! So we can all have one!" said Quan Fen He.

"I really want the Level zero sword, father!" said Quan Jian Min.

"Hmmm…" Minister Quan had to think for a few seconds.

'The level zero sword would definitely help with my plans… and the Longevity pill would do me good…'

"Fine. Let's go to the auction tomorrow. We need to find Lady Lin's daughter as well."

"Where is w.a.n.g Ping?" asked Lin Yu Yan. Everyone has gathered back at the Inn. Lin Yu Yan has asked Wu Lang to gather everyone back at the Inn so she can give them some news but w.a.n.g Ping hasn't arrived yet.

"Whoa. Who are you?" said Gu Xiang.

"Uncle, I'm Yu Yan," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Why do you look like that? You look a lot like the Shengwu guy," said Chu Yang.

"Brother Bingwen? Pfft! you finally look like your age!" said Han Mingli. He couldn't hold in his laughter at the new look Bingwen had.

"I barely recognized you," said Han Jingju. "Who did this? They are very skilled."

"We needed a different disguise so I had to change our faces a bit," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Wow, you're really good at makeup," said Chu Yang still admiring the amazing art Lin Yu Yan has created. "You guys really look different."

"Ah, it was you two who are the Unknown beauty couple the whole city is talking about," said Peng Ai, smirking a little. "You got caught?"

"I heard that too! That's why you changed your faces," said Wei Ru. "But you really do look like a boy now, sister Yu Yan."

"sigh... yeah. I should have been more careful but at the same time, I can fiannly move the way I want too," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Anyway, I told the Third Prince to be back by now," said Wu Lang going back to the main point.

"Let's go look for him," said Lin Yu Yan. "It is strange for him to be late."

Everyone left the Inn to find w.a.n.g Ping. They went to the last spot Wu Lang spotted him in but he was nowhere to be found.

"Where is he…" said Gu Xiang. "I'm not really a good general, leaving a prince of w.a.n.g alone…"

"He said he was going to check out something quick. It's not your fault, Xiang," said Chu Yang.

"I sense water up ahead… Why am I sensing that?" said Peng Ai. The sea snake wrapped around her arm is now on alert.

"I smell… blood?" said Kenzhi.

"Ummm… let's go back…" said Wei Ru.

"It's here, right Wei Ru?" said Meiying. Lin Yu Yan looked over at her and can see the fear in her eyes.

"I sense a lot of people up ahead…" said Wu Lang. "It seems like they are huddled in a building in… chains…" His eyes widen in surprise in realization of what it was.

"Slave Market!" said Xie Rong.
