Chapter 131 - Smell You From Miles Away

After the shadow guards left with the nobles, they handed them over to the palace guards and came back to capture all the Solaris family people and clean out the remaining items.

"What should we do with the slaves, your highness?" Mark asked, while giving the prince a weird look.

It was hot topic among palace guards and maids back in the royal palace regarding the prince's love affairs. He had broken all tradition of the royal family to have one wife.

The palace guards who managed to become couples with the maids, especially warned them to be weary if the prince.

"Send them to temporary camp and see if you can reunite them with their family. If it's not possible, see what they wish to do. If they want to become palace maids, they can." Leon said.

The palace was huge like a sect. They could use extra hands, especially after being saved, the young girls that would have become slaves and plaything for nobles, would only be filled with gratitude and be completely loyal to the royal family.

"Yes, your highness." Mark complied.

Leon continued to carry Lilith in a princess hold. She started to feel uncomfortable, since she was never held like this before.

"Where are you taking me?" She asked with a frown.

"Didn't you say I should help you all the way? I'm bringing you back home for further treatment."

Hearing these words, Lilith became skeptical. He was willing to treat her because she was beautiful. Maybe he was after her body?

Lilith hugged her body in alert and tried to read if he had any lascivious thoughts from his expression.

Leon felt her gaze and said with a smile, "I know I'm handsome, but you don't need to stare at me so hard."

Her stomach instantly churned and made an exaggerated retching expression.

"Bleurgh… don't be so narcissistic." Lilith frowned and said, "I don't like being carried like this. Put me on your back."

Who was she to command him? Leon naturally rejected, "No way. What if you try to bite me again? How can I defend against that? At least if I hold you like this, I can throw you, if you try to."

"Hmph! Petty!" Lilith harrumphed, before her heart soften with guilt when she saw his bleeding hand and asked, "Does it hurt?"

She may be extremely weakened, but the bite of an injure animal was still quite powerful.

"Yes."

"Oh… I'm sorry…" Lilith felt a greater sense of guilt when she heard his answer.

Seeing her like this, he couldn't help, but teased, "However, it won't hurt if you give it a kiss."

Lilith was momentarily dazed, before she pouted with anger, "Shameless! Rouge!"

"Hahaha… We're here now."

Leon decided to just laugh it off as they arrived at the palace. He ordered the maids to wash Lilith clean of all the dirt and bloodstains, before giving her a new set of clothes.

At the same time, he went to washed himself and change into a new set of royal attire. His old clothes were stained after carrying the bloodied Lilith.

There weren't suitable clothes for Lilith with her black feathered wing in the way. In the end, the maids found a long piece of silken cloth and wrapped it into a dress for her.

The two met some time later and Leon's eyes lit up at the sight. It was a feast for the eyes.

"You look like some princess. Very pretty." Leon praised.

"Hmph! Complimenting me, won't make me happy!" Lilith pouted, but she was feeling smug and proud inwardly. Her words contradicted her actual feelings.

She was called the little princess of the Desolate Crow Clan. However, she didn't mention this and even felt very gloomy at the thought of that clan. She left it with all her loyal followers and now her followers were all dead.

Sensing the depressing mood, he changed topic, "Come, let me finish treating your wounds."

Her wounds from being tortured had stopped bleeding, but it had not healed up and would leave scars if recovered naturally and she was still heavily injured internally from her fall, otherwise the Solaris family would have been no match for her.

Leon used the Golden Ointment and rubbed it on her wounds intermixed with his heavenly massage. She felt a wondrous sensation seeping throughout her body and involuntarily moaned in pleasure.

She was immediately stunned by her own lewd voice and felt anguish for being taken advantage of by his roguish hands. She wants to lash out in anger but upon seeing Leon's serious expression in treating her, she kept silent and was slightly dazed staring at his face.

His hands hadn't touch anywhere inappropriate and only focused solely on addressing the wounds on her body. He sealed up the wounds with the ointment and dredged her meridians with his massage to allow the blood to run smoothly.

They say, women find a man most attractive, when he is concentrating hard.

'Hmm… I guess he is a bit handsome…' Lilith inwardly thought.

Leon had a refreshing appearance in his royal attire with a regal air around him. It was different to his common black attire. Is this what it meant by 'clothes makes the man?'

BA-BUMP… Lilith felt her heart racing faster and felt embarrassed at the thought.

"Why did you come to the Human Domain? What do you plan to do after recovering?" Leon suddenly said after treating her external wounds.

Leon didn't have any discrimination against the beast race. There were plenty of Divine Beasts in the Divine Realm that could take on the human form. He had interacted with plenty and even know their beast language.

However, they were from two opposing sides, this was a question he still had to ask even though he felt that she wasn't a bad person.

"My king sent me to investigate the source of bad smell, but I don't think I can return to report." Lilith said sadly at the look of her remaining wing. She had lost her ability to fly.

Hearing the mention of the 'king' again, Leon involuntarily blurted, "The dog?"

"He's not a dog, okay? The king is a Transcendent wolf! Why do you keep insulting my king?" Lilith said in an angry, but not so angry manner. Whether intentionally or not, Leon had successfully shifted her mood.

"You were the first one to insult him. I asked if you were a dog, but you brought your king into it. If you didn't think your king is a dog, why bring him up in the first place?" Leon said with a flicker in his eyes. The more they talk, the more information he received.

"I-I… didn't…" Leon's words made her speechless. Subconsciously, she really did think that way! Her Desolate Crow Clan was even stronger than the Skysilver Tribe! But she ran away for a certain reason and decided to hide in the Skysilver Tribe. Since her own personal strength wasn't on par with Skysilver, she had to at least obey the ruler of the region. In truth, she wasn't at all loyal to the Skysilver Tribe. Now that she wasn't in the tribe, she could act more freely.

However, being caught out by Leon, she felt both embarrassed and aggrieved. She stamped her feet and said, "Wahh… you're bullying me!"

Her words left Leon rooted on the spot. Why was she acting like a child? The beast race in human form were typically much older than how they look, and Leon had been treating her as such. It was always a taboo to ask for a woman's age, so he couldn't determine her actual age.

However, Lilith wasn't the same as the beast race from the Divine Realm. She had both beast and human bloodline, and really looked her tender age of 16. She wasn't some old monster.

"Alright, take it as I'm afraid of you, alright? Don't cry. Anyway, I still have things to do. You can stay here until you recover." Leon bid his goodbye.

"Hmph! Go! Go, you bad person!"

Lilith was settled in a spare room in a separate guest courtyard, however when Leon left, there was complete shock written all over his face.

From what he just learnt; this Transcendent wolf could smell what happened in the Capital from all the way back in the Wildlands.

If Skysilver could read his thoughts, it would say, "That's right, human! This King can smell you from miles away! Revere me!

In the main square of each Upper District, a new announcement was posted on the notice board personally by a palace guard. The actions of a walking frame of metal would never go unnoticed and immediately attracted the crowd over to read the announcement on the board.

The announcement was brief, but it was enough to leave them shocked. Tomorrow morning at 8AM sharp, the royal family will be holding a trial in front of the palace gates to judge the final fate of 40 noble families, whom participated in an illegal underground auction, whereas the auction host, Solaris family will be all sentenced to death.

"How scary. I wonder which family are being judged. The Queen had already exit seclusion, yet they think they can still commit crimes right under her nose? They seriously don't know how the word 'death' is written."

"Hey man, what if your family is one of them?"

"You! Don't talk nonsense. My family has always been upright and adhered to the laws."

The person shrugged his shoulders and said,

"Well, we can only find out tomorrow."
