9 - Lady in the Black Devil Mask, White Rose 2

Chapter 9: Lady in the Black Devil Mask, White Rose 2

Feng An came back to the mountain where a beautiful and imposing mansion stood at the top of the hill. The front yard garden is full of beautiful white roses that were planted by their young lady. The manor looks like that Europe style. 

This mansion was very different from the houses of the Ying Yue people. The structure was unfamiliar and it gives off a mysterious feeling.

Feng An entered the mansion with large strides and was greeted by his fellow servant, Meimei.

"Where's the lady, Feng An?" The maid asked.

"She's not in the academy. Wait here, I'll look for her." His expression change as he rips the coachman attire, underneath was a black pant, white long sleeve top and a black long sleeve blazer, and in his hands are a pair of white gloves. Feng An now looks like a butler with high and perfect standards.

"My lord." The shadow guard bowed respectfully to Liu Xu as he entered in the quiet room.

"That was fast. Speak."

"Replying to my lord. Miss Li lives at the top of the mountain of Silent Hill. There, I notice that the mansion's front yard garden is full of white roses."

Liu Xu caress Li Wei small and tender face. A smile that can steal a person's heart and mind appeared on his cold and aloof expression.

"Little kitten, you're pretty interesting. Are you really going to make me find out that you are White Rose? Or is it a mere coincidence that you have white rose planted in your yard?"

'If you end up the same person...I will definitely not let you go. I will make you become one of my people.'

The shadow guard leaves the room quietly. He had seen enough. He still wants his head attached to his neck.

Liu Xu gently scopes the woman in his arms and fly towards the mountain. Just like the shadow guard told him. There are really white roses in this grand mansion. Entering the yard, he laid her down gently in the white flowers leaving her unconscious body there.

Just as the man leaves, Li Wei's hair turns white and the tightly closed eyes opened. Revealing beautiful and bloodthirsty eyes reflecting the white moon.

"Ah~ that Princess Yue sure beat me up real good. My bones were attached back by that man called Wang Yu. Thanks to him, even my old wounds are now recovering. But that man named Liu Xu is very mysterious. Even his presence is powerful." She muttered.

"Even though he already knows the answer he still made the conclusion if it was just a coincidence. For me, he's an annoying fly who correctly guess that I am White Rose," she said and grab a black mask inside her robe and covers her enchanting face. The mask has devil horns on it. Naturally, Li Wei called it the 'Devil Mask'. She thought it was really cool.

Leaping up from the gate, her black cloak covered her entire body that shrouded her in mystery. Strolling the city, White Rose coincidentally saw Nalan Han, her face still covered with bruises and her eyes filled with anger.

Nalan Han never thought that she would badly be humiliated to the point that her face resembled a pig. She was beaten to the extent where the master of Nalan Clan, her father, didn't recognize her. A 3rd rank genius becomes nothing for one day! Her position as a third rank genius disappeared in an instant!

If she didn't issue a challenge to that girl, then maybe she's still part of one of the geniuses. With a single defeat, her position crumbled to nothing and the third spot became empty or should she say was stolen by Li Wei.

White Rose smirk and an idea cross her mind.

'Let's scare her for a bit.'

In the dark alleyway, a lady in the black devil mask waited for Nalan Han to get closer. When she saw a woman clad in a green dress with vines embroidered on it, White Rose immediately leaped down from the sky scaring the maids that were with the bestowed Princess Yue.

A white rose suddenly appeared on her hands, revealing her identity.

"Wh-white Rose." Nalan Han and the 3 maids muttered. Stuttering.

"Hello, ladies." White Rose said, deepening her voice to make it more sounds scary.

"Y-you...what do you want? I am a Princess! Killing a princess is a huge crime!"

"You said you're a princess? You looked like a damn pig! Since you said you're a princess, then my mission is very easy. A princess is what I need." White Rose spoke with a languid smile that made these people trembled in fear. She did not even forget to insult Nalan Han.

"White Rose! What do you really want?!" Nalan Han took all of her courage to speak without stammering.

"What I want? I want your life." White Rose revealed a bloodthirsty smile. Her eyes showing killing intent. Nalan Han and the maid felt like a cold water splash to their body. They know White Rose, she became famous after killing 10 officials in 10 consecutive days. No one knows what's her real strength. She works at night, and today she seems to be working very early and her target was her. Nalan Han was frantic.

4 rose appeared on Li Wei's hands. With nimble hands, she throws the three roses to the three maids, hitting their chest. The rose sinks into their flesh, making the rose looks like it blooms inside them.

Their bodies dropped to the ground, lifeless.

Nalan Han was petrified. Her screams echo in the dark alley, alerting the people to take a look. They find Princess Yue sitting on the ground, fears visible to her entire face. The three maids found dead, with the white rose dug deep into their chest.

A black cloak person, wearing a black devil mask emerges from the darkness. A white rose in her hand.

A cold smile playing on her lips before gliding back to the darkness.

"Better watch yourself, Princess..." Her voice echoes sending chills to Nalan Han's very core.
