Senja lowered her head, seemingly deep in thought. "Impossible…" She mumbled. "What about grandfather? Where is he now?" Senja whipped her head to look at Xiao Jun.

This time, it wasn't only Senja who was in danger, but also the old man as well, especially if this matter has related to the Black Sword Clan. As the leader, Elder Dam would be more miserable.

"Relax, he is here. Probably, he is resting by now." Xiao Jun said calmly.

Senja took a visible sighed in relief.

"You seemed so surprise by this news." Xiao Jun crossed his arms in front of his chest as he gave Senja an accusation looked.

"Of course I am."

Xiao Jun shrugged. "Your surprise reaction is very convincing."

"Oh, thank you…" Senja thanked him sarcastically. "What did you expect? I will jump joyfully because now the Emperor wanted my life for the thing that I don't even know? Do you think I am so stupid to plot myself in that way?"

"If this concerning the Emperor then the answer is; yes." Xiao Jun said firmly. "I saw a plot like this six years ago."

"What happened six years ago?"

"Are you sure you don't know about this?"

Senja narrowed her eyes dangerously. "You are so suspicious toward me. You think I have anything to do with this damn plan? I don't even know the Emperor. Like I told you before, I came to find Yun, because Riana asked me a favor. That's it!"

"How do you explain your ability to manipulate other people mind?"

Senja tilted her head as she assessed Xiao Jun in front of her, "Something happened between you and the mind controller?" She threw a guess.

"No." Xiao Jun shook his head. "Something happened between Xiao Tianyao and mind controller." He corrected.

This time Senja put down her dagger as she leaned her body against the wall behind her, still keep the save distance between them.

"That is one of my questions. Something is off about Xiao Tianyao." Senja mumbled. "What happened with him?"

Xiao Jun gave his last assessment of the situation also upon Senja and gambled with his option. Whether she was really good in acting or all she had said was the truth. However, this time Xiao Jun was willing to put his gamble on the later.

"Luna, Xiao Tianyao's deceased wife was a mind controller." Xiao Jun said.

Senja abruptly straightened her back as her body jolted forward, marched toward Xiao Jun, she bombarded him with questions.

"Luna is mind controller? What happened with her? Did the Emperor sentence her to death?" Because that was the punishment that Xiao Tianyao had told her long time ago. "Did the Emperor ask Misty Cloud Clan to kill Luna?" Senja demanded an answer and her patient was worn off for every question that she lashed.

"You are so eager to know about my brother…" Xiao Jun raised his brows, "What is this, you like my brother?" He teased her.

Xiao Jun attitude was totally different from an hour ago, now he looked more relax and back to his joviality character. Yet, in terms of teasing, Senja couldn't be underestimated.

She sat in front of Xiao Jun elegantly, crossed his legs and spoke in lazy tone. "We supposed to like each other." Senja shrugged. "… We have married after all."

"Huh? " Xiao Jun leaned his body in confusion. "Both of you what!?"

Senja raised her hand and showed the two red leaves tattoo on her palm, of course Xiao Jun recognized the symbol. "Impossible."

"Hmm… that's what Xiao Tianyao said as well." Senja grinned upon looking Xiao Jun who turned speechless.

"Did he know you aren't Elder Dam's granddaughter?" Xiao Jun narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
