Chapter 3 East Sea

Chapter 3 East Sea

In the darkness in an extravagance hall with extravagance striking black outfit with black armors belonging to the eldest prince of the East Sea Kingdom. Stood before him were maids in red robes stood in a single line. He seems to be observing them one by one. He has an outstanding bearing and looks, however rumors have it that he slaughters and kill without blinking an eye not feeling an ounce of remorse whatsoever. Many maids that were sent to him were disposed like nothing, thus hearing about serving the first prince brought countless fear to many maids with the exception of Mohua since she was an outsider and have heard of no such rumors.

This first prince, without a doubt had the absolute charm that no one can surpass. His heart seems to be made of steel and never was considerate of others feelings. He previous had a maid beaten to death before given the reason only because she glanced at him. After that incident, given maids or other important officials in court never dared to look at him in the eye or be at an eye level with him for fearing of dying without knowing the reason or a valid reason.

He has obtained countless admire but given his reputation no one had ever dare to approach or get close to him in fear of losing their lives. No one even dare to enter his chamber without his permission, thus given his status and reputation, he remained single. All the maids in his palace are either blind, scarred or mute. To remain in his palace, they cannot be normal or have an outstanding look.

In terms of looks, he surpassed the god of war, Zhang Tianheng, but given his status and reputation, it was not as good as Zhang Tianheng. Everyone found First Prince of East Sea Palace so terrifying that no one dared to cooperate with or come into contact with. If people said Zhang Tianheng is the bane of heaven, then this First Dragon Prince is the ruler of the sea and land.

The First Prince had very long silver hair and was held loosely on the side with an ear accessory on the side going around the back of the head revealing his handsome side with a silver eye mask covering his left side of the eye only. On his fingers were ten silver slender sharp claws as a decoration. Even though an eye of his was covered with a decoration of a silver eye mask, people can already see how magnificent he looks no need to see his whole face to identify how handsome his appearance is.

He looks at all the maids in red and studied them carefully. His cool calm voice reverberated in the hall, “Who is the mute from Heaven?” The cold aura sent a chill down to all maids and servant’s skin causing the whole hall to be silent. No one dare to defy the First Prince of the East Palace.

Staying silent, as soon as he asked that question, Mo Hua slowly step up and lower her head not saying a word. He looks at her and saw her outstanding face and asks, “What is your name?”

Mohua shrieks in silence finding no words only showing complicated grasping for air. She slowly raises her head and look at him straight in the eye. As soon as she looks at him straight in the eyes, many servants, maids, and guards stood shock not taking a breath it seems as if the whole world is ending. You’re dead, is many other people’s thoughts. Who dare to look at the First Prince, are you afraid of death?

Mohua realizes the awkward and silence atmosphere. She only pointed to her mouth and shook her head then lower her head again shifting her gaze back down to the ground. When she looks at First Prince straight in the eyes, it was a sad and pitiful look she gave him. He sees that she is a mute and can read her gesture. He laughs out loud roaring reverberating in the hall loudly, “Outrageous! Heaven dared to send me a mute?!” He was displeased given the treatment from Heaven. “When they need me as an ally, they came begging but now this is how they treat me?!” He was very upset. The maids and servants being present was shaking in terror.

Nobody wants to anger the First Prince, given his prowess and position only he is second to the Dragon Emperor. Mohua knelt on the ground when he yelled in displeasure almost immediately not because she was afraid but because she couldn’t help it when he released his domineering aura that causes her to be paralyzed. She breathes for air silently.

He looks at all the other maids and with one swift of his sleeves, he sent all of those maids flying across the room shouting, “GET OUT!” He roars with anger. As soon as he roars, all his other servants and guards knelt on the ground bowing, hoping this would appease his anger.

The eldest dragon prince stood on his throne and uses an invisible force he pulled Mohua's her neck to his face as if he is going to crush her neck, he looks at her frowning. She looks straight at his eyes and found the color to be golden yellow very beautiful yet so terrifying. She grasps for air as a tear fell on the side of her face. He pushed her off and onto the ground saying, “You’re a thief… but Nuwa Baihua trust you this much to send you to me, hmph…” He walks off as he gived orders to his men, “Send out the rest, I will keep this one. Settle this mute girl down and give her instructions of what her daily duty is,” as he finish, he disappears into thin air like a deity departing to heaven.

Just like this, after settling down for 3 days and was given tasks to finish daily is how Mohua’s days went. In that place there was no other maidservants in the First Prince personal hall beside her. The rest were in the kitchen and other palaces. He gave her a ton of lists to do. All his daily cleaning tasks were given to Mohua personally. With this kind of tasks, many maids from other palaces came to envy and grew jealous of Mohua as she was able to get close to the First Prince. Many eyed for this position, but who knew she was able to snatch such position from them.

Every morning Mohua woke up early making sure she wakes up before the First Prince and was already getting tea ready for him as she stood outside his chamber kneeling for his arrival. She was very diligent in what she does and she tried very hard not to make mistakes. She waited outside kneeling as the door slide open and walks out First Prince. He was quite surprised to see her every morning having tea already ready for him he didn’t even have to summon his personal servant for tea.

He took the tea and sip the tea and then spat at her face, “You call this tea? Hmph,” with that, he left. Mohua stood on her knee and slowly pour her a cup of tea and tasted it herself but to her, it tasted just fine. She doesn’t understand what went wrong with her tea. She will try a new method for tea the next morning.

After he walks off, she stood up and went back to her room. Laughter can be heard from other maidservants mocking her how she tried to please the First Prince but was spat on. She pretended like she didn’t hear anything and walks off.

When she got to her room, she uncovers the martial arts manual she received from her master and open the manual and was amazed how the manual came to life and entered her body. To her surprise, she seems to remember everything written in the manual as if it was being repeated back to her word for word and as if she have learnt it years ago or have always known it. She never knew such magic existed until now no wonder people went crazy over learning martial arts. The manual pages became emptied after she open the first pages. She sat in a crisscross position to meditate and found herself in an unfamiliar space in which the martial arts were displayed. As she has no experience much in martial arts or powers, she has no choice but to start at the very bottom which is to release all her meridian points to allow her to gather spiritual energy into her body. It took her a long time to figure out how to open her meridian bypass.

In a blink of an eye, it was already dark when she returned. She feels great after coming back to reality. She cannot figure out the reason why she doesn’t feel the tiredness upon returning. On the contrary, she feels the opposite as if she is full of energy. She looks outside and find it dark already. She quickly finishes her chores and went to bed early for the next day.
