” I don't care if they are dead or alive. But if anyone knows that I planned to kill my own children, it will be a huge threat to my position in the palace.”
” Husband, there is no way that anyone other than us can know about it. Keep your heart at ease” Lin Rong spoke gently near his ear.
Xia Jiang felt his whole body being relaxed after hearing her sweet and gentle voice.
” I'll visit you tonight” Xia Jiang smiled at her.
” Husband..” Lin Rong shyly bit her lip.
Xia Jiang raised his hand to caress her face, when a series of urgent knocks interrupted his action.
” What is it?” Xia Jiang felt annoyed as they were disturbed.
” Master, a person from the Sacred order visited our manor.”
” What did you say?” Xia Jiang abruptly stood up.
” He said that he is from sacred order and wishes to speak with you.” the guard replied nervously.
The Sacred order is a secret organization and their leader is known to be ruthless. No one knows his real identity. All that is known is that he appears in a purple robe wearing a golden mask.
Furthermore and most importantly that those who provoke him will meet a scary and violent death.
In Qilin empire, one can maintain their own army and can start secret organizations as long as they do not harm the throne. They exist as independent powers. Many such organizations are there but the sacred order is the most dangerous of them all. Even the emperor fears them and respects them.
' But, why are they here?' Xia Jiang sub-consciously shivered.
At his side, Lin Rong is already petrified as she heard stories about the horrible fates of those who provoked the sacred order.
