Wang Yibo's blood started to boil in rage. He tightly held his fist and closed his eyes to control his rage. He then smiled and looked at Madame who was continuously blabbering about the liquid Wang Yibo gave.

'Poor you, Madame Yu, you don't know the capability of that liquid. All your dreams about to control Xiao Xingchen will ruin.' Wang Yibo smiled confidently.

"I am really pleased with you. I promise you to make you most precious to my Wei Wuxian." Madame Yu said smilingly and took out a ring from her pouch and extended to Wang Yibo."This ring is really divine. Whenever you rub this ring and wish something from your heart. Then your wish will come true."

Wang Yibo was feeling like destroying the ring in front of. 'Pleased!!!...huh...do you know who am I? You are awarding thinking that I helped you by hurting my beloved one!' Wang Yibo's mind snarled.

Wang Yibo yet kept a sweet smile playing on his face. Madam Yu soon stood up from her royal chair and Wang Yibo just bowed to her and moved aside. Madame Yu left the room.

"See you soon. Keep an eye in each and every place so that those humans couldn't flee from here." Madame Yu said before leaving the room.

Signing deeply, Wang Yibo decided to explore in the devil Mansion. He started to walk through the corridor. There were statues of the previous devil kings and queens and important people. On the giant walls of either side of the corridor, portraits were sketched. Suddenly he stopped beside a sculpture of a couple.

The Man was standing with all his grace and majestic manner, and a woman maybe his wife, was standing beside him holding his hand. But both of them were looking as powerful as supernatural creatures but looking right into the sculpture Yibo can easily say that they were humans. Under sculpture, the name was written with beautifully with golden color.

"The mighty human messengers, Lan Yilan, and her husband..." Wang Yibo slowly read what was written there.

His eyebrows got knitted together. He looked again into the sculpture. Those faces, that sweet smile on the woman's face and the style of her husband...it's so familiar...Yibo pressed his lips together only to remember where he had met them before. Why they are so familiar to him? Yibo wondered.

Then eyes bludged out as he saw the statue of another woman next to Yilan.

"Granny!" Yibo unconsciously exclaimed and he read what was written below."Baoshan Sanren, the majestic human peace messenger."

'Granny used to work here! If granny was one of the most important person here, then why did they capture her again and kept her in a room?' Yibo wondered.

He stepped forward, his attention again caught by another sculpture.

'This face...the woman's eyes are similar to Xiao Xingchen's eyes...this man's lips are similar to Xingchen's. Xingchen's jawline is so similar to this woman.'

Yibo nodded his head and moved forward. After walking a while, Yibo found himself standing in front of the big entrance of a room. As he peeped in, he found the room was filled with books.

'So this is a library here.' Yibo thought and entered the library.

He smiled as reading books were his hobby. But he never thought that he will ever able to be in such a big library with so many books. But his smile faded as soon as his attention caught by two familiar figures. He immediately hid behind a bookshelf.

'Xiao Zhan and Xue Yang...' Wang Yibo's mind supplied.

After Xiao Xingchen and his granny were taken to prison, Wuxian left the hall. He straightly came into the library to calm himself. As he entered in, he took his seat. Suddenly his attention was caught by book.

He could remember that book was actually his father's personal diary. Thinking that he might get a hint to do next, he extended his hand and took the book.

He turned the page after page and started reading. First, it was written how happy and playful life Wuxian's father lead when he was a teenage boy. Then slowly several obstacles started to come in his happy life.

Suddenly Wuxian's eyes glued on a particular page and especially on a particular line.

Wuxian slowly with a low voice read the line out.

"I never believed in love at first sight. I used to think that it was very fake. But...but...' Zhan didn't read what was written next in his father's diary.

The only words that stuck in his mind were, 'Love at first sight is not real.'

'Is it means Yibo, not his love? Is it just a mere attraction? Is it just lust? If it was so then he will never accept Yibo.' Wuxian's mind supplied cause he wanted to be loyal to his life partner.

Wuxian felt like his heart stopped. He thought what he felt towards Yibo was love. Just then he heard some footsteps.

As he turned behind he found, Xue Yang standing behind him.

'Wuxian! We have to do something. We have to free Xiao Xingchen and his granny. I can't see them suffer for us." Xue Yang said restlessly.

"No need!" Wuxian said with a cold voice which made Xue Yang look at him in disbelief.

"Do you know what you are saying? You love Yibo. Granny is his beloved one. I love Xingchen. And yes they are out future wives. How can you see them in trouble?" Xue Yang inquired in disbelief.

"Neither of us love them. That is just a lust. I am never gonna accept Yibo. You too just have a lust towards Xingchen." Wuxian said.

"Are you out of mind?" Xue Yang screamed at the top of his lungs."The is much difference between love and lust! I love Xiao Xingchen. That is real."

"Love at first sight is not real! You need to understand it." Wuxian replied in a cold voice.

"Love at first sight is real. I do believe it. And you..."

"Enough Xue Yang. Listen to words. For our Devil empire, Xingchen must have to sacrifice. This is the decision of Devil king, Wei Wuxian. Being general you can't oppose it. My decision is final." With these cold words, Wuxian left the library. Meanwhile, Xue Yang remained dumbfounded.

Wang Yibo who was listening to the conversation from the beginning felt as if his heart was broken into several pieces. Tears escaped from his eyes. He felt weak and his legs didn't support him. He knelt beside the bookshelf and sobbed silently.

He didn't know how long he sobbed like that. He slowly stood up when the chirping's of the bird came across his ears. As he looked out, he found that the reflected rays spread across the sky.

He realized that it was dawn and the sun will rise soon. And devils will take xiao Xingchen to the islands.

"Wuxian ah Wuxian. You broke my heart. I wouldn't have done anything. But you want my family to suffer for your empire. I surely take my revenge." Wang Yibo said to himself with full of hatred before wiping his tears.
