First meet with Fei Ji

4000 years ago...

Mortal Land

"Hurry up! The spring feast is approaching, and you need to adorn the castle."

"Yes, ma'am."

After the maid left, the whispering became more intense.

"Is Princess Mei Lin scheduled to attend the banquet?" 

"The demon prince doesn't come to these feasts very often."

"Hush!!!! How can you speak so recklessly about the princess?"

"Everyone calls her that. Why can't I?"

"Princess Mei Lin is the Emperor's favorite niece. Despite her previous fame and attractiveness, someone strangely tossed the princess down a cliff on her route to the temple six months ago. When they located the princess, they discovered two enormous wounds on her back that had not healed. People call her the Evil Princess because of her scars."

"They even say that the princess behaves like a wild animal after being wounded. A few months ago, the princess entered the courtroom and beat Mr. Huang to death."

"It was eventually discovered that Mr. Huang had deceived his wife. She even wrote down the location of his mistress and handed it to her."

"She once removed a salesperson's clothing and tied him to a wooden pillar in the center of town."

The servant shook herself.

"She is very cruel."

"You don't know yet, but I witnessed it with my own eyes. She hit Lord Cheng with a shovel because he sought a young concubine. After three months, the old man still can't get out of bed."

"However, the Emperor still loves her, and I have even heard that he has sent her clothes to be the best at the spring feast."

When they saw the big servant, they went away and started their task. She raised the wine jug in her hand and gazed at the moon. Several individuals entered the pub, chatting loudly.

"Today I have to find that bi...ch and teach her an excellent lesson!"

Despite being young, he exuded strength and earned admiration from everyone around him. His clothing was unique and more expensive than theirs.

"How dare she disrupt my grandmother's plans?"

Recalling the recollections of the old woman she had seen in court today, she confirmed that he was the old woman's grandson and that people had often come to harass her after the trial.

"Go and find her as soon as possible!" 

She tilted the wine bottle slightly and poured it right on the boy's head. Yelled in rage.

"Who is it?"

She placed her hand under her chin and gazed down.

The servant approached him.

"Master, it's her!"

Smiled and waved to the small for him.

"Catch her!"

She got up from her chair and shoved down the large wine container, but they were more nimble than she had anticipated. She only had wine jars to protect herself.

She tossed the wine at the youngster, hit him in the head, and collapsed unconscious. servants ran to him. She could flee them.

Opened the window, hopped down, pulled a piece of money from her wallet, and threw it at the tavern's servant. The tavern's servant recognized her as a regular client. She typically wore dark clothing and never spoke.

Smiled and thanked her for paying for the damage.

"Follow her! We must not let her go."

Servants rushed out of the tavern to look for her in the crowd. 

She was mistaken this time, despite her incredible speed. The servants discovered her shortly. Her eyes widened as she noticed the dead-end street in front of her, and she cursed herself for what she had done.

When she noticed a protruding rock, she stepped on it to climb over the wall. When she saw the maid, who stated she was on the wall, she rushed to the ground in search of a secure location. He grabbed her hand and pulled her into the stone.

Large, towering stones were arranged together to create a secure sanctuary. He put his palm over Bai Lian's mouth to prevent him from screaming or making a sound.

There was just a small space between the stones, so they couldn't be far away. Even though she clung to the rock, she couldn't conceal it from him. Seeing the aura around Bai Lian, he assumed she was mortal, but what she saw in her eyes, like magic, compelled her to stare at him more and more. The voices of the servants reached outside.

"Where'd she go?"

Servant who provides meals for Fei Ji every night became terrified and began yelling at strangers in the yard.

Food plates toppled and shattered. The servants, unable to raise problems for their lord, dashed up the wall and out of the courtyard. The moonlight gleamed in Fei Ji's eyes.

Fei Ji's eyes gleamed with moonlight, and he smiled deeply at her.
