The Phoenix Arises
Chapter 38.2
Chapter 38.2: Coming Out to Quell the Upheaval
Huangfu Che got up and walked over to come beside Duanmu Xue.
Duanmu Xue nodded. “Alright.”
The two of them then went up to the South City Gates with the Phoenix Guards.
— At the bottom of the South City Gates —
Upon seeing the two of them appear, Duanmu Shuang’s eyes flashed with an excited glint.
“Duanmu Xue, the turtle has finally come out from hiding in its shell. This Duke had thought that you would be hiding in your man’s arms for the rest of your life.”
Duanmu Shuang’s arrogant words cause Duamu Xue and Huangfu Che to immediately knit their brows.
“What audacity Duke Jing! You dare speak such blasphemous words…..” Red Maple immediately stepped forward to point at Duke Jing with a shout.
Duanmu Shuang’s eyes glinted coldly, and an arrow straight towards Red Maple.
Phoenix Second immediately moved up front to block the sharp arrow. Red Maple staggered back several steps before she was able to catch herself.
“Hahaha….. Today will be the day that you die, Duanmu Xue. Be so good as to hand over the throne and have Huangfu Che come warm this Duke’s bed for me. Maybe this Duke will consider letting you die with your body in one piece.”
Once those words came out, Huangfu Che’s face turned cold as winter’s frost and Duanmu Xue was so enraged green veins bulged on her forehead.
[This damned woman. How dare she even think of wanting to defile her Che at all. She deserves more than a thousand deaths just for that.]
Two bolts of green light then shot towards Duanmu Shuang simultaneously.
In a moment of terror, she immediately stepped back to dodge, the green light bolts striking right into the red horse under her.
The horse fell to the ground, dead, and Duanmu Shuang crashed straight to the ground.
Duanmu Shuang climbed wretchedly to her feet, and shot Duanmu Xue a baleful glare, before her gaze then halted upon the figure of Huangfu Che.
“Huangu Che, count your blessings that this Duke thinks you’re worthy enough, and do not fail to see what’s for your own good. What is so great about Duanmu Xue anyway? Come under my wing and this Duke will make you the Phoenix Empress as well.”
Phoenix Empress?
Huangfu Che laughed scornfully: “You? I think you’re not clean enough to even clean off my shoes.”
[Even if he was to remain the Phoenix Empress, he would only be the Phoenix Empress of just one person and no other.]
“You…..”
Duanmu Shuang was so angry she could not even speak as she pointed a quivering finger at Huangfu Che.
“Commence the siege.”
[Since he is too blind to see what is good for him, then he cannot blame her for being heartless.]
— Outside the Imperial Capital —
Xuanyuan Mo had led three thousand elite troops, trundling through sleepless days and nights, and had finally arrived at the Vermillion Bird.
“Your Highness, the Vermillion seems to be in trouble. The entire Capital City is surrounded by an army.”
Li Shang came over in a hurry to report to Xuanyuan Mo.
Xuanyuan Mo knitted up his brows. “How many men do they have?”
Li Shang took a moment to recall the information his subordinate had brought in earlier before he said: “About a hundred thousand.”
Xuanyuan Mo’s brows tightened further.
[To think that there would be so many. Really do not know how the two seniors are doing….. If anything were to happen to them, Little Xi would surely be devastated.]
“Find a spot where they have a smaller number of people and we’ll attack them tonight.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
