Young Miss, Please Don't Run

Ba Yue is enjoying the food that Lok-Son has prepared for her. As she's eating the food, she's also thinking of how to make an excuse to leave for a little while to go search for the herbs. Little did she know, Lok Son is also thinking of a way to get Ba Yue to leave here for a little while.

He'd noticed there are lots of people around that has killing intent, those people are very strong so it's hard for Ba Yue to notice them. Even thought Ba Yue is currently quite strong for her age in this small country, but her strength is only about average compared to these professional killers!

"umm….Lok-Son, the food you made is so good! You have always cook for me, I think I should cook for you too. We are here in the forest and the best thing to eat is barbeque meat! I'll go hunt for something to cook, okay? Can you stay here to wait for me?" That's the only excuse Ba Yue can think up of for now.

"Little Yue, it's going to be dangerous. You shouldn't go alone in the forest." Even thought Lok-Son is saying that, but he wanted Ba Yue to go and it's best to take her maids with her.

Just as Lok-Son has hoped, Ba Yue's next word is just what he wanted.

"It's okay, I come here to train very often so I'm very familiar with this forest. If you're worried about me so much, I'll take Han Yan and Han Chu with me. But are you going to be okay being alone with your guard?" Ba Yue asks worriedly.

"I'm going be fine, Gao Sing is very strong! And I can also protect myself, so you don't have to worry about me. I'll wait for you here." Lok-Son gave Gao Sing an eye signal. Gao Sing, of course, know what his Master is trying to say, he could also feel the killing intent from those people that are hidden in the shadows.

"Miss Ba, you don't have to worried about his highness. I'm his highness personal guard, I'll make sure he is well protected." Gao Sing also reassured Ba Yue.

"Little Red, do you want to go with me or stay here with Lok Son?" Ba Yue just got up from the blanket she was sitting on and looked at Little Red.

Lok-Son gave Little Red an eye signal too and Little Red also understand what he means. Even though he is small and tiny, but he's still a God Beast, so he had noticed the people in the shadows too. He understands that Lok Son wants him to go protect her.

Little Red didn't say anything and just jumped onto Ba Yue's shoulder. Ba Yue said a few more things about being safe and took the Han sisters with her and left.

Once Ba Yue is gone and Lok-Son believes she is far enough, his face completely changed. His already cold looking face is ever colder than usual. It's his first date with his Little Yue and those people are trying to ruin it for him! Well according to Lok Son, it's their first date. As for Ba Yue, she had no idea this was their first date at all.

"Come out!" Mak Lok Son Shouted.

Many people came out from all different direction from behind the trees. There are at least 50 people, their martial art skill is high and most of them are element users. They don't look like normal assassins from the Fu Country. 'Must be one of those people in the palace that can't sit still anymore', Lok Son thought.

Just as the battle begins for Lok-Son and Gao Sing, Ba Yue was having a good time looking around the forest. She was finally able to get away from Lok-Son for a little bit to search for the herbs she needs.

"Okay, my main purpose is to search for some herbs. So I won't be able to concentrate to hunt for food. If any of you sees any animal, go hunt it. Make sure to hunt enough for all of us." Ba Yue tells the Han sisters. She didn't really tell Little Red to hunt because she can't imagine his little body being able to hunt for bigger preys.

The Han sisters nodded their head to show they understand. The sisters' power had been sealed so they are quite weak right now, that's why they also didn't notice those killers that were hidden in the shadows back there.

On the other hand, Little Red is on guarded. He felt that some of those people back there have also followed them here too. But he didn't say anything to Ba Yue because he didn't want to worry her. He quietly jumped off her shoulder and walked behind the girls. Slowly, he disappears from behind them and into the woods. He'll have to secretly get rid of those people before his young master notice.

Ba Yue quickly found the herbs she needs and the Han sisters' also hunted a few small rabbits and chicken. She then looks around and noticed Little Red is gone and is nowhere to be found. But she's not worried at all about him. This is the forest where she found him and he has been living in this forest by himself for 10 years. This forest is like his second home, so he probably just wanted to go look around the place where he has lived before.

The girls got everything they need and are heading back to where Lok-Son is. But what they didn't know was that there was a small group of very high martial art skill assassins right behind them!

Back to where Lok Son is, the battle is fierce. But Lok-Son and Gao Sing manage to kill most of them already. The assassins were surprised by the strength and power that Mak Lok-Son has shown. They only knew the seventh prince is an idiot but didn't know he can do the martial art and is also an element user! This is big news, they have to bring it back and tell their Master.

But there's no way Lok Son will let them escape and have them leak out his secret. Toward the end, he changes back to his original look. His smooth black hair has changed to the beautiful silver-white color and his eye has also changed to the beautiful sky blue. The assassins are shocked at his changes. Their thoughts are that this seventh prince is not a human! They must escape from him!

Lok-Son won't let them live after seeing his true self. He is ten times stronger than before when he looks like this now. This is his true form after unsealing his own power. He quickly eliminates the remaining people that are still there and then changed back to his other self.

Gao Sing then inspects the bodies of the assassins and noticed a tattoo on all of them. It is a tattoo of a wolf on their left hands. He immediately knows who sent these assassins to have them killed. It's the empress and the eldest prince because the wolf tattoo belongs to the hidden guards of the empress's home country.

Prior to marrying the emperor, the empress was a princess of a nearby bigger country. She knew by marrying to an emperor of a smaller country, it guarantees her to become an empress. She did get what she'd hope for and becomes the empress, but she didn't get the love she wanted from him. She knew the emperor would have many concubines and consorts, but as long as he doesn't use true feeling toward any of them, she wouldn't mind too much.

Things were going well for the empress for a while until she had a hard time giving birth to her first child. The baby was born very weak and due to her hard time laboring, the imperial doctor said she'll have a hard time getting pregnant again in the future. And the emperor not visiting her often make it even harder for her to conceive again. Luckily for her, the first child she has is a son, even though he's weak but is still the firstborn prince of the royal family.

She had hoped the emperor would crown her son as the crown prince, but that didn't happen. Soon, another concubine gave birth to a prince, which is the current second prince. The Empress knew she had made a mistake. She shouldn't have let Concubine Liu gave birth safely like that, but it was too late. The child was born healthy and Concubine Liu has also received favor from the emperor and has been promoted to be a higher tier concubine.

She tried to get rid of Concubine Liu and the second prince but was unable to. Concubine Liu's father is a very high-rank government official that has been in the government for a very long time. He had hoped his daughter would have become the empress, but with the sudden appearance of a foreign princess, it had ruined his plans. He would never allow any harm coming from the Empress to his daughter and the second prince. His grandson will most likely be the next emperor since the eldest prince is so weak, who knows if he will live long enough to see the throne.

Learned from this lesson, the empress has kept an eye on all those concubines that are pregnant. She will make accidents happen that will result in the loss of pregnancy. Even if the babies are safely born, they will always die of illness if it is a prince. Of Course, Concubine Liu is no sweet angel, she also gave a helping hand there.

But they can't make it so obvious so they purposely left the emperor a few princesses. Everything was good, the fight now is between the Empress and Concubine Liu until one day the emperor brought back two very beautiful women.

The Emperor was out hunting in the forest and was injured. The women who are supposed to be strangers to each other but was going on the same road. They happen to meet the injured Emperor and saved him. One of the women had a very cold and expressionless look on her face, her name is Nan Meng-Gi. The other women had a gentle and sweet look on her face, her name is Din Su-Ying.

Even though the person that really saved the emperor was Nan Meng-Gi and she is the prettier one. The emperor likes Din Su-Ying more due to her personality and how she caters to him. He brought them both back to the palace saying that he will repay them for their kindness. An emperor is also a man that likes beauties and these two are the most beautiful one that he has ever seen in his life.

The emperor offered to marry them and appoint them to be a high tier concubine. Usually, only the big families or governments official's family daughter can be appointed to be a concubine. If a woman is from a family without any background, they can only be a mistress and serve the emperor in bed only. These two woman doesn't have any family background so when the emperor said he will appoint them to be his concubine, it is like a big grace from him.

Din Su-Ying happily agrees to it, while Nan Meng-Gi declined. The emperor was not happy with Nan Meng-Gi refusing him and he can't just let a beauty like that leave. So the day that Nan Meng-Gi is supposed to leave the palace, he had someone drugged her. He then had his way with her and made her his women by force. Even if it was just one night, it was enough to satisfy him as a man.

The next day, the emperor announced the news of him marrying the two women to the world. The emperor never touched Nan Meng-Gi again since that night because she wouldn't let him. She could have left afterward, but for some reason, she didn't. Because of her always cold attitudes toward him, the emperor pays even more attention to Din Su-Ying and claims that she is his true love.

Soon news of the two concubines is pregnant at the same time spread. The Empress and Concubine Liu didn't sit well with it, especially with Din Su-Ying. She has stolen all the attention of the emperor that is supposed to be for them. They can't let that child be born and they definitely have to get rid of her too.

Din Su-Ying is not what she seems to be, under her innocent, gentle sweet look is actually an evil sly woman. She knew how to get the emperors to favor her and also how the fight goes in the back palace. She knows she has no strong family background to protect her so the only person that can protect her is the Emperor. She expressed to the emperor that she is afraid for her life and their child. The Emperor immediately knew what she meant and had people protecting her closely.

On the other hand, no one cares about Nan Meng-Gi. The Empress and Concubine Liu knew she was not favored by the emperor so they didn't really pay any attention to her. Even if she really bore a prince, she's not favored and has no family background to back her up, so they are not worried about her at all. The Emperor didn't care about her either, after making her as his woman, he has lost interest in her.
