Faced with no choice, Xiao Tianjin patiently explained anything he knew about Lin Empire, weather it was trival matter or not. Besides, the only thing that was making it a very long explanation is that because Xiao Tianjin noticed how Lin Yu focused only to him and so, he tried to please Lin Yu by providing all the information he knew.

While listening, Lin Yu learn that the Lin Empire only seems to be lively and peaceful because the Emperor, both former and current, was suppressing any rumours that could bring bad reputation. He also learned that Lin Empire, even though have the title of being the strongest, have a Mortal Enemy. 

Based on Xiao Tianjin, the Lin Empire have a dispute to a Dark Group of Warrior. This group was a full-time terrorist who lives in the dark. They are known for their viscousness and Merciless way of handling matters and could take down a whole Empire. In fact, this groups of people have long been categorize as a whole Empire called Xie(evil) Empire. 

Throughout the whole Explanation about this Xie Empire, Lin Yu notice that Xiao Tianjin seems to talk well about the said Xie Empire's Emperor. Xiao Tianjin said the Xie Emperor was handsome, benevolent, wealthy, strong and powerful, which make Lin Yu wonder weather Xiao Tianjin know this Xie Emperor or not.

When Xiao Tianjin finished explaining, The sun was already rising. Lin Yu suddenly felt hungry and stand up, making Xiao Tianjin confused.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Tianjin asked.

While they were talking, Lin Yu notice how Xiao Tianjin seems to quickly open up to him and became a little talkative.

"I'm going to haunt something to eat and you, while I'm gone, you shall prepare some fire again." Lin Yu said as he ordered Xiao Tianjin like a servant. 

Xiao Tianjin was surprised when he heard that Lin Yu was going to hunt. He didn't think that this seemingly weak and delicate woman-looking man was actually capable of hunting!

When Lin Yu saw Xiao Tianjin's stunned expression, his face quickly turned sour. How could he not know what was running to Xiao Tianjin's head?

"You think I can't do it?" Lin Yu ask coldly. Xiao Tianjin quickly notice Lin Yu's blackened face and so, quickly answer.

"Don't misunderstand. It was just hard to imagine since you look like a great Scholar."Xiao Tianjin seriously said, his previous thoughts were nowhere to be found.

Clicking his tounge, Lin Yu turn around left. But then, he suddenly stops and pointed at the pile of corpses littering on the place that was still on the side that's not too far away.

"Let's just assume that those animals were easy to chop like those idiots over there."

Hearing this, Xiao Tianjin's mouth twitched in annoyace.

You're worried about weather the animal was hard to chop?! 

•••

Lin Huo sat on the throne, his face calm but the aura he was emitting was darker than his Sister's solemn face.

"Brother, why haven't you caught that useless bastard?! Two days almost passed so why aren't you taking actions yet?!"

Lin YangLi, the Fourth daughter of the previous Emperor, was Lin Huo's sister with the same mother and father. For Lin Huo, the only important people for him was Lin YangLi and his mother, Feng RengMin. As for his older brother, he doesn't consider him at all. 

"Little Li, be patient. Brother was doing his best to find A-Y– Lin Yu. This isn't a child's play, and it can't be done for a short period of time." Lin Huo calmly explained.

"Hmph!! You just felt sympathy for that guy! I placed him in the deepest part of the dungeon and bound him with the hardest and most solid chain so how could he escaped? It seems more to me that he was freed."

Hearing this, Lin Huo's calm face suddenly change as he coldly looks at Lin YangLi.

"Are you saying that I've freed him?" 

When Lin Yu's escape was reported to him, Lin Huo quickly ran all the way to the Dungeon in order to see what happened. He saw the chains were intact, and it doesn't have any blood, so no signs of struggles were found. At first, he also thought that someone helped Lin Yu escaped. However, the ground was able to produce footprints, and only one pair of footprints were found. Meaning, Lin Yu escape all by himself.

"If not, then prove yourself, Brother. If it seems like what that useless Yu have done to me was nothing to you, then it's a humiliation to me! I will never let those who humiliated me have an intact corpse!"

With that declaration, Lin YangLi turn around and left, Leaving Lin Huo who have a dark expression.

When he saw Lin YangLi was gone, Lin Huo called the head eunuch when he was calm enough.

"Have you enquired any information about A–Yun?"

Shaking his head, the eunuch quickly bows his head.

"There are no news Your Majesty. I believe that the Fifth Prince has gone to the Forest." 

Lin Huo deeply sigh in frustration before clicking his tounge in depression.

"What about Xiao Tianjin? Is he dead already?"

Hearing the question related to Xiao Tianjin, the head eunuch's face became blank before slowly speaking.

"Your Majesty, that..."

Seeing the eunuch hesitation, Lin Huo quickly lost him composure and impatiently asked.

"What is it? Quickly tell me!"

The eunuch didn't beat around the bush and tell Lin Huo what the problem was. 

When Lin Huo heard it, His eyes flash dangerously as he pondered by himself.

"You are saying that he entered the forest, and the guards who chased in pursuit was missing? Is that how it is?"

With a solemn expression, the eunuch nods his head. He didn't dare meet Lin Huo's eyes, but if he ever did, he would instantly notice that Lin Huo expressed a worried expression.

What now?
