Escape

Thud!

The door was completely shut tight but Mei Yin could still hear the people in the room. As a large amount of footsteps are rushing in from the outside. With voices of two men speaking, seeming to be the leader of the group that just entered.

"Ha! You idiots think your door can hold us?"

"Why are you wasting time with these ants, hurry up and kill that girl in the back. We don't want the boss to wait long plus I want to find more prey to kill rather than wasting any more time here."

Pointing at Mei Yin double in the back, the shadow with two horns demon on his chest voiced out. But it didn't take long for his vision to be block by the guards who have at this time take up position in front of Mei Yin double.

"Don't dirty her grace image with your disgusting look and you can keep dreaming about laying a hand on her with us around."

"Oh really? I really want to see how you useless dogs going to protect her from 30 of us. Kill them!"

"Protect her grace and kill all those that stand in our path!!"

"KILLLLL!!!"

With a single shout, both side collided which the elite guards fought valiantly under such disadvantage circumstances. But soon the noises disappear indicating that the hard fought battle was over.

Kneeling on her knees Mei Yin bowed in the direction of the room to pay her respect, unable to control the tears from continuously running down her face. After a long minute that seem to be like eternity, she was able to get up with much effort before sprinting towards the exit.

'I swear by the gods that one day I will make Gaixu Sang pay tenfold for what he did to my family.'

While the Yin family are fighting for their life as the dead continue to stack up, on top of the eastern wall stand an elderly man watching the chaos unfold with his hand behind his back. His cloth are dazzling, his posture is straight as a stick, his aura is sharp, and his finger is full of jade rings. A person only need to look at him once to know that he is from a noble family.

"What a beautiful scene, don't you think?"

Without turning around the elderly man spoke which a reply immediately got return from the darkness as a man emerge but this person have a completely different vibe to him due to the visible blood lust that is being release from his body and on his chest is actually a demon with a crown instead of horns that the other shadows have.

"I see your skill haven't been rusty even with age and beautiful indeed, those flames are burning more ferociously by the second and the screams of those Yin family sure is pleasant to the ear hahaha."

"Have the task been completed?"

Ignoring what the shadow said with his first statement, the elderly man went straight to the topic and ask with a voice that is neither happy nor sad. Sensing that the other party is ignoring him, the shadow simply spit on the floor with dissatisfaction before answering.

"The garrison troops are being hindered as we speak to prevent them from interfering with our little fun inside the palace. One of my three horn demon shadow along with hundreds of shadows are currently enjoying themselves as you can see. Everything is going according to plan…..but whether we can take Sima Yin head or not will depend on that person you have brought over to our side."

"What about his daughter? We cannot leave any loose ends to this matter. All that have the Yin family bloodline must die."

"Worry not, we got the whole place surrounded. Their heads will be delivered to you soon enough."

"For your sake, I hope so."

No longer interested in speaking with the shadow behind him the elderly man simply did a small gesture with his hand as a form of dismissal. Ignoring the lack of respect from the old man the shadow walk away and merge back into the darkness with a sour taste in his mouth. With the departure of the shadow, the old man face instantly became menacing.

'This is the consequences for those that dared to stand against me. Sima Yin oh Sima Yin, you never thought that your pitiful life will end here tonight did you and by his hand of all people. Even your daughter along with the entire Yin family bloodline will fall with you. HAHAHA'

Unknowing to the elderly man that the root he wish to pluck out are actually intact and it will one day grow back bigger and stronger which will signal his downfall.
