Need to help Qian Ki 1

'I need to go' While Xiao Fan was confirming this thought more and more, the other people who had come to ask for his opinion on this were standing there. Not even Wang Geming stopped his advisor from doing what he was doing, seemingly thinking.

When Xiao Fan finally came back to reality ¨We need to go there!¨ He blurted out this immediately with no further message.

¨What is it?¨ Now that he had a conclusion did Wang Geming feel okay to ask him.

Xiao Fan was about to say something, but realising what a blunder it would be he didn't ¨It is something of demonic nature, might be those barbarians doing something¨

¨Sure they are barbarians with little knowledge, but they didn't seem demonic to me¨ The others around them agreed.

¨Then what is it? A happy occasion where someone is killing enough people to produce blood coloured smoke?¨

¨Hmm. Well let's go, and see¨ Wang Geming couldn't argue against that.

Getting back down already, as he was in a hurry, Xiao Fan continued ¨Have you spoken to the others about this yet? If it is the Holy Coalition, we can't go there alone¨

¨You are coming?¨ Was the first question Wang Geming had to this.

¨If I do not come who will tell you what is happening? You have other experts?¨ He quickly came up with an answer which allowed him to go there 'Does she really have it this bad? The calling of these voices is unbearable' He hadn't thought that the voices calling would be like this, what more, they only went down when they were listened to...

¨Okay, you can come, but stay out of fighting. I do not even know how you have survived the last two times¨ Wang Geming could see that going in blind was not good, but on the other hand, Xiao Fan getting near a fight might be worse.

¨The others?¨ he cared little for his opinions.

¨Everyone should come¨

¨Good¨ 'Very good, with this I can help her succeed' He would have helped Qian Ki with a clear head for sure, so now having a voice or something telling him he needed to do that he was thrilled to hear this ¨Just listen to what I say or we might be doomed when going close to that place¨

¨Is it that dangerous?¨ The Prince was a little troubled when hearing such a warning.

¨Playing with blood is always dangerous, no matter the size¨ He lied. He just wanted that everyone would work for his goals.

¨Then I'll make everyone be sure to know this¨ But he might not need to since the other royals were already gathered on the door to the tower, so they heard the conversation the two of them had.

¨So now we are listening to orders from him?¨ The Eleventh Prince questioned, not too happy about this.

¨I simply wish that no harm will come to anyone on our side. You as a Prince should know how dangerous those who dabble in blood magic and such are¨ He replied.

¨You are not wrong on that¨ The Eleventh Prince in all his pride gave him that ¨There are so many things of that kind that danger the Bald Eagle Dynasty, thankfully one of them has been snuffed out, and the rest will follow¨

¨You mean the?¨ He asked what was snuffed out.

¨The Spawns of Evil, of course, even their new ally has disappeared, leaving the last devil alone again¨ He was referring to what Xiao Fan was thinking of.

'Kill the Eleventh Prince' Just like that Xiao Fan got another name to kill in the name of Qian Ki.

¨Guess the rumours are true: Any man loving one will be met with great missfortunes¨ He added in.

While behind him, Wang Geming tried his best not to show the slightest emotion to this exchange of words 'Poor brother, you will never even know when you get killed by him or by me' He had felt that the Elevent Prince would be a little smarter, though drawing the line, in this case, was hard.

After the Eleventh Prince agreeing to follow some orders from Mask, the Yi Family and most of the Bald Eagle Dynasty troops left towards that red smoke rising into the sky.

Arriving at the origin of smoke, a pipe coming out of the ground, they realised two things. The most important one was that others had come to see the origin of the smoke before them. The second was that the smoke was coming from underground.

'She's down there! I must go help her before the Holy Coalition gets to her!' Xiao Fan, getting the true picture of what was happening thought while giving a false one to the others ¨We need to hurry! The smoke is deepening in colour!¨

¨Deepening in colour?¨ One of the Princes asked.

¨The ritual is nearing its ending. It has been going for long, and due to that, the blood is starting to clot and so deepen in colour¨ This time he didn't lie.

¨So their devilish ritual is soon completed?¨ Wang Geming was again itching for a fight.

¨Yes, find the entrance, quickly!¨ He being the so-called expert on this did what he could to hasten everyone's actions.

So far it had been working, and it also worked now since right after him saying so the Royals grudgingly listening to him began to look for the supposed entrance into this underground complex.

Not soon after they found it too, but how the others got the notion was through the clanking of metal against metal ¨The enemy is found!¨ Xiao Fan with the main group didn't waste time to run over there 'What is she thinking? Doesn't she realise the danger she is in ?' He was scared that the Holy Coalition would be upon her soon.

Thankfully it didn't long before they got into action, and after overcoming the outside guards, they pushed deeper into the complex.

Deeper into the mines.

¨Chief! Chief!¨ Someone rushing in the deep red smoke shouted.

¨I'm here! What is it?¨ The Chief shouting back to the man was some fifty meters away from the shouter, yet neither of them saw the other.

The blood coloured smoke was too thick to see anything in around these parts of the underground complex.

¨They came! The Bald Eagle Dynasty is already in the complex!¨ The man ran towards the voice, his hand trying to shove the smoke from his face to no success.

¨Then go and push them back! The Shaman ordered us to destroy the origin of this smoke!¨ By the time he was ending the sentence, he felt the messager hit his frail chest.

¨Sorry Chief, I didn't see you¨ The man spoke, his tone scared, and for a good reason since the Chief who had little in terms of muscle mass wasn't too pleased.

¨Someone else go and start pushing them back¨ Before he addressed the man, who had crashed into him he gave the order which was heeded even by the other Chiefs.

¨Now, you... You go and see what is up there¨ He would have killed him, but decided it was better to use his life to something.

¨No¨ The man protested, but before he could do so, the Chief threw him towards the direction they were going.

¨No buts!¨

Back to the Bald Eagle Dynasty.

'What is she doing?' Xiao Fan wondered what was Qian Ki doing here. The voice told him only to come here, nothing of what was happening was told to him.

¨Mask, is this safe to be inhaling?¨ One of the more scared Princesses asked him this as the smoke surrounding them was getting thicker and thicker.

¨It is fine as long as we get air¨ He calmed her down ¨And the faster I get to the origin the faster the smoke will be under control!¨ He then tried to raise the morale of the troops pushing them forward.

¨At this rate we will be losing too many men...¨ The Elevent Prince was again doing his casualty estimates and then drew predictions from them.

¨The fighting might be brutal but whatever they are trying to accomplish here will only hurt us more¨ Xiao Fan shut any opposition of his plan down in seconds, nothing would stop Qian Ki's plan if it were up to him.

Xiao Fan was no Spawn of Devil, so he had realised how differently he acted, but at the moment, he could care less 'I need to help her' Since the same line repeated in his mind after every lie.

¨Then we should run and try to find a way out of the Tomb of the Four Ancient Ones¨ The Eleventh Prince wasn't easy to be argued against.

¨Or, we will come up with a solution to lessen the casualties. Aren't you people the best candidates to be leaders and innavators¨ He argued back.

¨Hey, don't talk to me like that, Mask¨ The Eleventh Prince reminded on how to act.

¨Sorry¨ He realised his mistake, yet as he was saying so, he realised that Wang Geming was spinning his blade. And from that, he noted that the smoke was clearing around the blade 'Lucky me' He thought as from this he realised something.

¨Give me a spear¨ He then asked someone to give him a spear.

¨Here¨ The Princess he had been calming down offered her spear without issue.

¨Thank you very much, but I can't use that. However, could you spin it, fast¨ The spear being offered was a Body Shattering Realm weaponry, so he needed to change his plan a little.

The Princess, who was actually the Fourth Princess, didn't ask and began to spin the spear.

¨As expected¨ He spoke after a few spins. And soon the more speed the Fourth Princess spun the spear with, the more smoke was being pushed away from around her.

Soon she had pushed the smoke so much that people could start seeing her, and as they could now see they all looked at the thing which was making this possible.

¨Now there is you adaptation¨ Xiao Fan spoke to the Eleventh Prince whose face he could now see, a face that wasn't too pleased.

He might be a little irritated by Mask overshadowing him, but nevertheless, he did what he needed ¨Get spears into the front and start spinning them!¨ He yelled in the hallway they were traversing.

Xiao Fan was about to say something, but before he could speak to the Prince now leaving the main group was he stopped by the Fourth Princess whispering ¨Let him go¨

No one saw this as the smoke was settling in again, but Xiao Fan did hear her ¨Whatever¨ He shrugged his shoulder, causing the Fourth Princess to stop her touch on his back.

'Just get to her quicker, Prince all-mighty' At the end, he didn't care to start bickering with the Eleventh Prince.

¨With this he'll make sure that we will be advancing a good pace¨ In the smoke one of the other Princes on the side of the Eleventh Prince noted.

¨The Eleventh Prince is the best one of us when it comes to strategy¨ Another Prince agreed with the first one.

Making Xiao Fan a little infuriated 'I made everything possible, praise me!' He spoke to himself. The voice was definitely changing him, yet still, he didn't care a bit, or the voice made him not care about it.

At the very origin of the smoke, Qian Ki was finalising her ritual. And to her surprisal, the man who had acted so heroically for his lover was still alive, letting her gain much more power than she had expected to gain from this ritual. More the pain, more the cultivation for her, so simple. And so the man still bled blood and groaned in pain when Qian Ki was bringing in the last sacrifice.

¨You wanted her to die quickly?¨ The last one was the other lovebird.

¨Please¨ The man spurted out this word with blood in the mix. L
