âQuill, Rise, you must guard the entire imperial palace,â Leng Ruoxue ordered her beasts.
âMaster, donât worry. Nothing will be able to get through us,â Rise, who wrapped himself as a bracelet around Leng Ruoxueâs snow-white wrist, promised.
After arranging everything, Leng Ruoxue and Huangfu Zhen went to the Phoenix Dwell Palace where Xu Lianâer lived.
After entering the inner hall of the Phoenix Dwell Palace, Leng Ruoxue and the others couldnât help feeling a little awkward because Xu Lianâer was sitting on a man with her clothes all over the placeâ¦
Xu Lianâer, who had been confined in her palace, was stunned when she suddenly saw so many people appear together. But she quickly recovered and hurriedly knelt on the ground. âYour Majesty.â
Xu Lianâer knelt while quickly sorting out her disheveled clothes with her hands. She seemed to be terrified in her heart, and her face was pitiful. She didnât expect the emperor to come suddenly and see such an inelegant side of herâ¦
âYour Majesty, it seems Noble Consort Xu is unwilling to be lonely and had an affair,â Leng Ruoxue said mockingly while glancing at Xu Lianâer and the man beside her. Sure enough, it was another man who resembled her father.
âLeng Ruoxue, itâs you again!â
As soon as Xu Lianâer saw Leng Ruoxue, intense hatred burst out of her eyes. Whenever she saw Leng Ruoxue, she would think of that slut who robbed her love. She really couldnât understand how she couldnât compare to that woman who had nothing. Why? Why couldnât she obtain the heart of the man she loved!
âDo you hate my mother?â Leng Ruoxue asked indifferently. Women who hated each other for love could do anything, and Xu Lianâer just happened to be such a vicious woman.
âYes, I hate her and wanted her dead. But why didnât only she die? Why?â Xu Lianâer roared out of control with a hideous face. Back then, she had racked her brains to trick the Leng Lie couple into coming to the Southern Dusk Empire. She originally wanted to get rid of that slut, but she didnât expect to accidentally kill the man she lovedâ¦
âBecause she had the protection of the man she loved,â Leng Ruoxue reminded very kindly.
âNo! Brother Lie didnât love her at all. He loved me!â Xu Lianâer seemed to be falling into her own memories crazily, and the past became her nightmare.
âDo you think weâll let you go just because you pretend to be crazy?â Leng Ruoxue coldly exposed her. This woman was really too scheming, and leaving her alive would definitely cause a disaster.
âI canât believe I didnât trick you. Tell me. What do you want to do to me?â Xu Lianâer stood up from the ground arrogantly . Her terrified and pitiful appearance from before was nowhere to be seen. Since they already saw through her, she might as well stop pretending. She was a precious daughter of the Xu family, so she didnât believe that the emperor would dare to kill her.
âYour Majesty, I really pity you,â Leng Ruoxue suddenly said while looking at Huangfu Zhen.
âShe has nothing to do with me,â Huangfu Zhen said indifferently, without the slightest trace of anger from being cuckolded.
âYour Majesty, you said it has nothing to do with you? Then where did our daughter come from?â Xu Lianâer provoked. She hated it when men tried to distance themselves from her. Was she a virus?
âSheâs just a bastard.â Huangfu Zhenâs face was full of disgust. This woman was still acting at a time like this.
âHow can you say that the daughter youâve loved for eighteen years is a bastard? You are really heartless!â Xu Lianâer laughed, her face full of pride and flaunting.
âI have never touched you. What is that daughter if not a bastard? Iâm afraid you donât even know who her father is, do you?â Huangfu Zhen mocked disdainfully. All these years, he had been forcing himself to love this mother and daughter all for today. Today, he was going to avenge his grandfather.
âNo, how is this possible? I donât believe it!â Xu Lianâer screamed in disbelief.
âYou have to believe it,â Huangfu Zhen said coldly and ignored her.
âXu Lianâer, where are the people you sent to kill my parents now?â Leng Ruoxue asked. Although Xu Lianâer was the mastermind, she didnât intend to let the murderers go either.
âDo you think I will tell you? You will never know. Haha!â Xu Lianâer laughed hysterically, but her heart was extremely miserableâ¦
âRuoxue, she probably killed those people long ago. Donât underestimate this womanâs obsession with your father,â Huangfu Zhen quickly said, afraid that Leng Ruoxue would be affected by Xu Lianâer.
âXu Lianâer, where are your people?â Leng Ruoxue nodded and asked lightly. It made no difference to her whether Xu Lianâer said it or not. She wouldnât let anyone from the Xu family go anyway.
âYour Majesty, do you really want to kill me?â Xu Lianâer looked at Huangfu Zhen with gentle eyes.
âIs there any question about this?â Huangfu Zhen asked with a look of disgust on his face.
âYou will regret it. Haha!â Xu Lianâer waved her hand, and a group of men in black emerged from all directions and surrounded Leng Ruoxue and the others.
Leng Ruoxue narrowed her beautiful eyes, which released an icy cold glare and murderous intentâ¦
Finally out.?She was really afraid that these people would hide in the corner and not come out. Otherwise, why would she talk so much nonsense with Xu Lianâer?
âLeng Ruoxue, donât worry. I will leave your corpse intact for the sake of Brother Lie,â Xu Lianâer said very kindly, as if she had given Leng Ruoxue a great favor.
âThank you, but I donât need it.
âIâll leave it to you.â
After speaking, Leng Ruoxue took out her sword and directly stabbed at the nearest few men in black. Wherever the sword energy went, fiery red spiritual power followed closely. The momentum was surging, and the cold air was threatening. Wherever the sword reached, countless men in black died or were injuredâ¦
Seeing Leng Ruoxue attack without hesitation, Huangfu Zhen also drew his sword and stabbed at Xu Lianâer. But the man beside Xu Lianâer blocked it, causing him to missâ¦
After Leng Ruoxue and Freak quickly dealt with all the men in black outside the hall, they returned to the inner hall and saw Huangfu Zhen and the others still fighting with the men in black in the hall, while Xu Lianâer stood by and watched coldly.
âFreak, go help them.â
