Destruction (3)

Shi Rong smiled deeper at its contents. "Please have those bottles delivered immediately while everything for the Zhi family is falling apart. I can promise by the end of the week you shall be in for a grand show and treat.

"Mhmm." The young girl responded pulling the crate closer to her with a small smile.

Shi Rong smiles then exited the building. She walked into the small alleyway disappearing in the Heavenly Pavilion but was watched by a pair of eyes.

She appeared in the room with the pile of letters tossing them towards Quijie with a soft thud.

"Please read these and prepare response letters for Hui Mian to have delivered to the delivery service make sure she is wearing her hood and doesn't speak so the little girl can't tell the difference. I shall be working on a project in the courtyard therefor I humbly request I am not disturbed."

Quijie nodded and picked up the pile of letters.

Shi Rong reaches down picking up the basket full of ingredients then retreated into the courtyard enclosing herself in intense work. The air slowly became heavy around the door with a dangerous aura as she worked alone in the courtyard.

Over the next couple days Shui City became chaotic due to a mass outbreak from a very dangerous poison plaguing the powerful families and cultivators, along with an intense manhunt issued by Master Zhi to have Mo Yu and Shi Rong likes to please both his daughter and himself.

The neighboring city exploded in outrage from the mass amount of letters and poison issued to the people of power within their walls causing those affected to scream for justice against the Zhi family.

Quijie and Hui Mian intercepted all letters coming and going from both parties increasing the already intense and dangerous situation, while Xiandi walked the streets in secret to gather gossip amongst the civilians.

The Day of the Banquet.

Shi Rong emerged from the courtyard into the room slipping small coals of dark black powder into her sleeves.

Ling Yiyao handed her a jar full of clear liquid. "Rong'er this shall cleanse away the ingredients in your hair and eyelashes returning them to their natural beautiful state."

"Mhm." Shi Rong nodded taking the jar from his hand tucking it into her sleeve.

Hui Mian and Xiandi stood against the wall with their arms folded with light smiles across their face.

Hui Mian spoke lightly and delicately perfectly hiding her impatient malicious intent. "Let us be off to this banquet already."
