More than a decade ago, when Ling'er was born, Xixue had launched a conspiracy, but it was finally destroyed by Xia Mo. Otherwise, he would have been the master of the demon world more than a decade ago.
Xia Mo. Xia Mo!
This abominable man actually used self-destruction to block his plan to dominate!
Xia Mo, this time, you have to watch carefully. Oh. No, you are already dead, you can no longer see it, you will never see it again. Hahahaha…
"Is everything ready over there?" The voice was deep and slightly hoarse, and every word revealed his coldness and ruthlessness, making people feel that what he said were just a few characters, without any emotion, let alone any emotional color. It even gave people an illusion that the man kneeling in front of him was not his subordinate, but a stranger.
"Devil King, everything is ready, just waiting for the birthday." The man in black nodded heavily and answered seriously and respectfully.
"Good, very good. This time, let's see how this little thing can escape from my grasp. Hahahaha..." The wild and cold laughter echoed in the street for a long time, making people feel creepy. Along with this cold laughter, Bloodthirsty gradually disappeared in this deserted street.
A strong wind suddenly blew up, and the thick smell of blood filled the air, making people sick. In an instant, it seemed to dye the clouds in the sky red.
A great war is about to begin...
Ling'er has been practicing hard these days, and her skills have improved a lot. According to Ling'er's instructions, Yinfeng also followed Xuanyi to Feng Country.
Before leaving, Yin Feng was called by Qing Lan to have a long secret talk. It was unknown what he had been told. However, judging from Yin Feng's serious expression, it must have something to do with Ling Er's trip to Feng Country. Only things related to Ling Er could make the four guardians of Yunhai City nervous.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was Fengxianer's birthday.
With red brocade hanging high and horns blaring, the Phoenix Kingdom's palace was bustling and prosperous.
Next to the main hall is the Yuntian Hall, which is second only to the main hall in terms of grandeur. It is said that this was a palace built for Shangguan Yunxiao when the empress adopted her as her adopted daughter, for her to stay in the palace.
In the Yuntian Palace, a woman sat in front of a bronze mirror, with a female official behind her tying her hair.
The pale purple dress was long and trailed on the ground. She was wearing a thin purple gauze with gold threads. Her slender waist was bound by a dark golden cloud belt, which made her waist look even thinner. A simple white jade hairpin in her hair made her face look like a lotus. Her face was extremely beautiful, and her phoenix eyes were naturally charming, but also awe-inspiring. Her eyes were moving, revealing her spirit and cunning. Her black hair was combed into a bun, which was gorgeous and graceful. The little finger-sized pearls were as bright as snow, twinkling in her hair. Although her face was half covered by the white gauze, it did not affect her peerless elegance at all.
With such a natural talent, and in the Yuntian Palace, there is no one else except Prince Shangguan Yunxiao. That's right, this woman is Shangguan Yunxiao, also Xia Ling'er.
Three days before her birthday, the empress sent someone to bring Ling'er to the palace. The reason was that her birthday was approaching and envoys from various countries would visit her, and she was worried that someone with bad intentions might endanger her safety.
No wonder there is a rumor out there that the Queen of Phoenix dotes on Prince Yun. Now it seems to be true. However, for some reason, Ling'er always feels that there is something strange about this Queen. She said she was worried about her safety, but...
Purple eyes turned slightly. There were quite a lot of troops deployed around the Yuntian Palace. Not to mention the open guards and patrol guards. What was the purpose of these dozen secret guards? And they were all masters. If it weren't for Ling'er's professional intuition in her previous life, she would not have been able to detect their existence.
She was already in the palace, and Feng Xian'er had mobilized such a large force to "protect" her. This really made her feel flattered!
Rather than protection, it is more like surveillance, or as if it is preventing something.
But, what exactly is it... Ling'er couldn't figure it out either.
"Your Highness, it's done. Are there any parts you're not satisfied with?" The female official who tied her hair looked at Shangguan Yunxiao in the mirror, slightly lost in thought. Putting aside her identity and her past deeds, this Prince Yun was indeed a man of heaven, even more beautiful than the most beautiful man.
"Okay, you can leave now."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The female official bowed and saluted, then retreated outside the palace. Then, another female official's voice was heard.
"Your Majesty, Her Majesty the Queen is hosting a banquet in Liuguang Palace, and asked Your Majesty to go there early to meet the envoys from various countries."
"Got it. I'll be there soon."
In such an important occasion, Feng Xian'er did not tell her princesses to meet the envoys first, but let her go. Such an honor and favor is indeed enviable. However, favor is like a double-edged sword, with both advantages and disadvantages. Especially for the emperor to be favored, it is even more dangerous. How many people are watching, and how many people are resentful.
Those princesses who wanted to inherit the throne probably wanted to kill this annoying Prince Yun.
As her eyes turned, many things flashed through Ling'er's mind. She raised her eyes and glanced at the hidden positions of the secret guards calmly, with an ambiguous smile on her lips. However, because she was wearing a veil, others could not notice it at all.
Then, he stood up and walked towards Liuguang Palace.
The white and clean hall reflects the crystal pearl light as clear as tears, ethereal and illusory, the beautiful scenery is like flowers across the clouds, and it is difficult to tell where the real scene is. Amber wine, jasper cups, gold-footed cups, jade plates, food like paintings, wine like springs, guqins, bells. The hall is decorated with inverted bell-like flowers around, the calyx is white, and it has a translucent luster like bone china. The top of the petals is a circle of light purple of varying shades, which seems to be dyed or natural.
Although the banquet had not yet begun, a lively and popular atmosphere was everywhere, the sound of stringed instruments was incessant, and people were drinking and chatting at the table.
The little palace maids in palace costumes had already prepared everything needed for the banquet and were standing carefully at the bottom right of each table.
As soon as they saw Ling'er coming, the palace maids and eunuchs knelt down with nervous expressions and shouted: "Your servants kowtow to Prince Yun. May Prince Yun live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!" Their voices were loud, but with obvious tremors, and even their bodies were shaking.
This scene made Ling'er's mouth twitch unconsciously. (To be continued)
