The white phoenix turned its head, and in a flash, a figure in a white robe came in from outside the courtyard.
He held an unconscious woman in his arms.
Tianya lowered his eyes and saw Feng Ruqing in Nan Xianâs embrace. His body stiffened, and endless anger instantly invaded his heart, making his whole body explode with rage.
Boom!
Angry flames surged out, blasting the middle-aged man who stood in front of him, making him fall from the air and land in the middle of the crowd.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao Ya hugged Tang Yin and followed behind Nan Xian, but her gaze was locked upon the person in front of her. Her eyes were filled with grief, and she did not dare to let the others notice it.
It was not until Nan Xian carried Feng Ruqing and disappeared into the courtyard that the others began to react.
The white phoenix rushed toward Xiao Ya, panicked.
âWhatâs going on? What happened to Qingqing?â
Xiao Yaâs heart sank in pain, still barely showing a smile. âItâs alright. He can save her.â
âYes, he can save her...
âJust like a thousand years ago... She had saved him.â
How could the Ninth Emperor die in the hands of these people?
Thousands of years ago, those people failed to kill her and ended up using Nan Changfeng to threaten her.
So, in this life, no one else should be able to touch her!
Xiao Ya looked down. Although she tried to convince herself in her heart, again and again, her heart was still immersed in pain.
Tianyaâs expression darkened as his grip around the longsword that was dripping with blood tightened.
That person was his granddaughter.
His most precious granddaughter!
Now, she was half dead and carried back by Nan Xian.
âAll of you people deserve to die!â
Tianyaâs red robes danced up wildly, his white hair floated in the wind. His murderous intent was so intense that it spread in the sky as he rushed toward the enemies...
***
Inside General Manor.
Nan Xian ignored the battle outside.
He placed the young girl in his arms on the bed, moving very carefully, afraid that he might hurt her.
âQingâer...â
âSorry I came too late.
âBut I wonât let anyone take you away from me.â
âMaster...â
Qing Zhu stretched out its head and carefully said, âPrincess... Sheâs dying. Iâm afraid that there is no way to save her.â
Snap!
Nan Xian raised his hand and flung Qing Zhu away.
Qing Zhuâs head instantly hit the door, the pain bringing tears to its eyes, and it could not control its tears as it looked at Feng Ruqing lying on the bed.
âPrincess is dying, but why doesnât Master believe it...â
Princess had always bullied Qing Zhu and threatened to turn it into snake soup...
But it loved her.
She was the only one who would stand by its master to the end.
Now that she was gone... Qing Zhu was sad too, but... It was even more heartbreaking when Nan Xian could not accept this fact.
âIâll save Qingâer.â
Nan Xian raised his hand, gently stroking the young girlâs hair.
His smile was as gentle as water.
âMaster...â
Qing Zhu crawled up to Nan Xianâs side. It wanted to comfort him, but a fierce gust of wind suddenly surged around Nan Xian, sweeping away all the tables and chairs in the room...
Only the bed where Feng Ruqing was lying remained untouched...
