The condition that the Temple Head gave was to prevent the split of the royal family. Yap Jia understood that very well because he recalled the seclusion of the princes. But Yelan and Aunt Xi stared at the puzzled Temple Head.
"You understand Miss Jia" said the Temple Head casually.
"I understand" Reply Jia.
Yelan and Aunt Xi were more confused, but they chose silence.
"Prepare Yelan and return safely" said the temple chief.
Yelan nodded.
"Then go" said the temple chief.
The three of them saluted and left.
"Miss Jia" called the Temple Chief when Jia was in the doorway.
"Yes the temple's head?"
"You are facing black magic and to fight it you must sacrifice something" Ucao the Temple Head.
Jia walked back before the temple chief.
"I mean chief?" Jia asked confusedly.
At the time before reincarnation, Jia did not know that the Hua Family were black magic users so he was very confused by the statement of the temple head.
"Sacrificing something doesn't mean it's someone's life. But I feel that there will be a great sacrifice on you" explained the temple chief.
"I understand the head" Jia said.
Jia saluted back and left.
"I'm glad you came back to life and good luck" the Temple Chief said.
When Jia looked it turned out that the Temple Head was no longer there, before long as the wind caressed his face.
"I'll try" Jia replied with a smile.

"So what does it mean to prevent the split of the royal family?" Ask the curious Yelan.
Jia who was driving the horse turned his head towards the inside of the carriage.
"It looks like the head of the temple knows there will be a split, then he tells us" Jia explained trying to cover it up.
"There may be a coup of people against the emperor" Aunt Xi said.
Yelan nodded in understanding, the monks had always heard the news that was happening in the royal surroundings. But for information of the coup they do not know and are not allowed to talk about it.
The train continued to run as the day grew more and more afternoon, they decided to take a detour to avoid something unexpected.
But when the Jia forest stopped the carriage because it heard something.
"What's wrong, miss?" Ask Aunt Xi.
"sttt" Jia said asking them to be quiet.
Before long there was a group of people wearing black clothes surrounding their carriage, there were a total of 20 people.
"Mrs Yelan" Bisik Jia gave the code.
"We are looking for you and it turns out that you are going this way" said one of them.
"Who sent you?" Jia asked standing on the carriage.
"Horse number you better get out of the way because our target is two people behind you" they said.
Jia screecing.
"Unfortunately I am with them so you must also face me" Jia replied sharply.
"Currently, what can a weak woman do" the man said in an insulting tone.
But before long the man's head fell, blood began to wash over the ground. The other man was glued to see his friend's head separated from his body.
"You are underestimating the daughter of a war general" Jia said as she wiped the blood from her sword.
One of them immediately opened the cover of the carriage and it turned kosonh, even the two horses that pulled the carriage were gone.
"Then be prepared" they said.
The group advanced to attack Jia but one more head just chuckled. Tenyata Yelan stood before Jia.
"And you also underestimated the former soldier" Ucao Yelan.
Before becoming a concubine, Yelan was indeed a former Warrior.
"Stop them" said one of them.
Jia fended off all of their attacks and inflicted wounds on the vital area, some starting to fall there.
While in the Yelan section not so far away, blood had even splattered on Yelan's clothes.
The sound of the sword was heard in the forest and since the sun had not set yet, their battle was very clear.
"Taste this" Shouted the man trying to stab Jia.
Jia held onto her waist which was bleeding soaked her hanfunya.
"Miss" Shouted Yelan.
"Mrs just focus" Reply Jia fended off the next attack.
Two people fell back to the ground with gaping scratches.
"Akh" Pekik Yelan held onto his left shoulder.
"Just give up, you're outnumbered" Ejek one of them.
Now Jia and Yelan were cornered, but Jia grinned instead.
"You guys are too arrogant" Ejek Jia.
With lightning speed Jia advanced and issued the knowledge taught by his father, the Lightning cutter.
Bugh, crack, brak.
All the bodies of the attackers fell with their bodies split apart.
Jia stared intently at a man sitting in fear.
"Who are you really?" Asked the man trembling.
"You know why General Li won the battle?" Ask Jia.
"Because my father was the creator of that science" Jia continued.
The man tried to get up and run, but Yelan quickly threw the dagger and stuck it on the man's back.
Jia approached the man who had been sitting down.
"Say who paid you?" Ask Jia.
The man was silent and instead put a drug into his mouth, before his body convulsed.
"Huh poison" Jia said.
"Did he die?" Ask Yelan.
"Yes, but we'll know who sent them" Jia said as her eyes looked at the black snake emblem on the man's head.
"Miss Jia was great" Praised Yelan.
"The lady is also great" Reply Jia.
In the temple the Monks were deliberately taught martial arts by the temple chief, Yelan who was a former soldier became even more powerful when taught by the temple chief.
"Then I will call Madam Xi first" Ucao Yelan left Jia.
jia watched the corpse in front of her and picked up a pathological beacon.
Duars.
With a grin Jia pulled the beacon.
"What's wrong?" Panicked Yelan who came with Aunt Xi.
"We will let the person who sent the brand happy first" Jia explained.
"Aunt Xi are you okay?" Jia asked who saw Aunt Xi's central face.
"I'm just sick of seeing this pool of blood" Aunt Xi whispered.
Indeed, they were in the pool of blood of the murderers, the smell of carnation was very smelled.
"Then we better get going" Jia said.
"Then what about their bodies?" Ask Aunt Xi.
"Let it be, madam, tonight their bodies will be eaten by wolves" said Yelan, who tied her horse to the train.
Jia quickly spurred the horse, they no longer need to worry about the corpses of the killers because there will be a series of people who will eat it, especially the streets there are rarely passed by people.

The sound of rushing water rang out, Jia and the others were washing their clothes from the splashes of blood, while Aunt Xi washed the wheels of their carriage and horse legs.
The wounds of the two of them had also been treated with the medicine that Jia had brought.
Soon they will arrive at the secret door to Liang's residence directly, the door is in the upstream of the waterfall near the border of the Capital City.
"I'm done" Jia said as she squeezed water on her Hanfu skirt.
"Me too" Reply Yelan, Their carriage is also clean again.
And luckily the clothes of the three of them are black color so that the blood stains are not too noticeable.
"We should be fast" said Jia who was shivering because of the wind there.
Before long a great wind hit them all so that their hair fluttered.
"It seems like the wind is telling us to hurry" Aunt Xi said.
Jia and Yelan nodded in agreement and the carriage walked back.
