Chapter 923 [Fragrant Honey 8]
The Lord Chang Fang came to the bird tribe's territory in a threatening manner, with a clear purpose - to ask Sui He for an explanation. When Sui He heard that the Lord Chang Fang was coming, she secretly thought about how to deal with it. She originally planned to order her capable subordinate Que Ling to interrogate all the bird tribe members to find out the truth. However, at this moment, a spy hurriedly came to report a shocking news: the demons were sharpening their knives and preparing to attack the heaven!
Suihe knew the seriousness of the situation, and after weighing the pros and cons, she decisively decided to put aside the dispute with Chang Fangzhu for the time being and no longer pay attention to Mudan's request. She flashed and instantly injured Mudan's heart, then flew to the heavens like a flash of lightning to help resist the invasion of the demons.
On the other hand, despite her best efforts, Chang Fangzhu still couldn't compete with the powerful Suihe. In desperation, Chang Fangzhu had to leave sadly. After returning to the flower world, she ordered to cut off the food supply of the bird tribe, then closed the palace gates and began to practice in seclusion, hoping to improve her own strength and find an opportunity to compete with Suihe in the future.
At the same time, when Xu Feng was flying over the Wangchuan River, he keenly sensed that the surrounding demonic energy was surging and rising. He frowned slightly, immediately realizing that the situation was not good, and immediately revealed his true form and landed in Biancheng. At this moment, King Gucheng and his group were nervously discussing how to deal with the current crisis in the secret room, and Xu Feng's sudden appearance caught them off guard.
Xu Feng's eyes were like torches, and he coldly scanned the people present, sternly rebuking them for crying out loud. After that, he took out the Phoenix Feather Arrow without hesitation. The arrow flashing with dazzling light seemed to contain endless power, causing King Gucheng and others to gasp in fear.
Seeing this, Liuying, the daughter of King Biancheng, not only showed no fear, but stepped forward and challenged Xufeng. She rushed towards Xufeng with a long sword in hand. The two fought back and forth, and for a while, the swords crossed and the moves were fierce. However, after just a few moves, Liuying was still inferior to her and was defeated. The Demon Lord and others saw how powerful Xufeng was, and they were all timid and dared not say a word.
At the same time, the Queen of Heaven accidentally discovered the ice crystals left behind when Xu Feng passed away. She felt nervous and thought something was fishy, so she hurried to the Jiuxiao Cloud Palace and reported this important clue to the Emperor of Heaven.
When the Emperor heard this, his face became solemn and he immediately summoned Runyu to question him. Facing the Emperor's questioning, Runyu looked innocent and firmly denied that he had done it.
The Queen Mother's eyes were wide open with anger, and she was certain that Runyu must have done this. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She immediately decided to lock Runyu up and torture him severely, and make him confess his crimes with his own mouth.
At this moment, a purple figure flashed in front of the Queen and the Emperor like a ghost. This person was graceful and elegant, and it was Youyou. She looked at the people in front of her with a stern face and slowly said, "Emperor and Queen, have you forgotten that Runyu is not only the Lord of your Celestial Clan, the Night God, but also a member of my Zixiao Palace! Because I haven't shown up in these years, have you completely forgotten my existence?"
Upon hearing this, the Emperor and Empress' faces suddenly changed, and cold sweat dripped down their foreheads. They hurriedly bowed and said in fear and trepidation, "Your Majesty, please calm down. This is a misunderstanding. It is all the fault of our subordinates. We misjudged Runyu. I hope that Your Majesty will be magnanimous and not hold it against us."
Youyou turned to look at Runyu and asked softly, "Runyu, what do you think about this?"
Runyu looked calm and fearless, and said loudly: "Master, I know that those who are clear are clear and those who are turbid are turbid. I have never done anything wrong, so I have a clear conscience. Even if I suffer a lot of unfair treatment, I will never give in."
Hearing Runyu's words, Youyou nodded slightly to show her approval.
At this time, the Queen knew that she was in the wrong this time. If she continued to stalemate, she might offend Youyou. So, she suppressed her anger, took a step forward, and said to Runyu: "Runyu, this time it was indeed my fault. I apologize to you here and hope to get your forgiveness."
Runyu smiled slightly, showing his magnanimity, and responded: "The Queen Mother is too kind. Runyu knows that the Queen Mother loves her son very much, and she made a misunderstanding in a moment of impulse. How could Runyu blame the Queen Mother?"
"Emperor of Heaven, Empress of Heaven, do you have other important matters to deal with? If not, then I will take Runyu and leave first. After all, I haven't seen Runyu for many years, and I miss him so much! I also want to know how he has been doing over the years." Youyou said softly, her tone was calm and gentle, but there was an unquestionable majesty in it.
The Emperor nodded slightly and replied, "That's right. Runyu, you should leave with the Emperor first. There is really nothing here that requires you to worry about." After saying that, he gave Runyu a slightly comforting look.
Runyu bowed respectfully and replied, "Yes." Then he turned around and followed Youyou out of the palace.
After the two walked away, Emperor Taiwei and Empress Tuyao breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, as if a huge stone hanging in their hearts had finally fallen to the ground. Taiwei turned his head to look at Tuyao, and said with a worried look on his face: "Fortunately, the emperor was magnanimous and did not take our mistakes seriously this time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"
Tu Yao frowned and muttered in dissatisfaction: "Humph, who would have thought that the emperor would suddenly show up at this moment? So many years have passed, and the emperor has been living in seclusion and has almost never shown his face in front of the public. How could it be such a coincidence that he showed up today? It's really unexpected!"
Taiwei's face darkened, and he lowered his voice to warn: "It's better to be more restrained in what you do on weekdays, and don't be too ostentatious. Even if I pretend not to know some things, I know them clearly in my heart."
Upon hearing this, Tu Yao raised her eyebrows and retorted, "Which of everything I did was not for the sake of you, the Emperor of Heaven? Which of it was not beneficial to you? You have gained a lot of benefits, but now you blame me? If the Emperor really finds out, then neither of us will be able to escape responsibility!"
"You...you woman, stop making trouble! I am a magnanimous man and I won't argue with you!" Taiwei flicked his sleeves with an angry look on his face and walked away without looking back, leaving Tu Yao standing there alone, shaking with anger.
At the same time, Xu Feng finally returned to the Ninth Heaven after going through hardships. As he hurriedly walked, he ran into Sui He. After the two talked for a while, Sui He keenly noticed the presence of Jin Mi. She raised her eyebrows and attacked Jin Mi without saying a word, instantly knocking the defenseless Jin Mi away.
Jin Mi, who was knocked to the ground, quickly got up and anxiously explained to Sui He: "I'm the one who saved your Highness' life!"
Hearing this, Sui He was slightly startled, and then looked Jin Mi up and down. After a moment, she seemed to believe that what Jin Mi said was true. She took out a few pills emitting rich spiritual energy from her bosom and handed them to Jin Mi, saying: "In this case, these spiritual enhancement pills can be regarded as a thank you gift to you."
Afterwards, Xufeng came to Taiwei, bowed respectfully, and told him everything that happened that day. As he spoke, Xufeng rolled up his sleeves to reveal the shocking wounds. Taiwei looked at the scars on his son's body, and felt a sharp pain in his heart. He couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, full of pity.
Xu Feng continued to recount his experience: "I was unfortunately hit by the enemy's ice spikes and fell straight into the wilderness. But fortunately, I was lucky and finally managed to escape and repel the enemy."
Taiwei was overjoyed when he heard this, and he praised Xufeng profusely: "My son is so brave and fearless! He was able to scare away 100,000 enemy troops by himself. It is a blessing for our heaven!"
Thinking of the promise he had made to Tu Yao that a ceremony would be held to crown the crown prince when Xu Feng returned triumphantly, Taiwei couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
However, at this moment, Xu Feng suddenly said: "Father, as the son of heaven, I am in charge of the five heavenly soldiers. It is my unshirkable responsibility and mission to resist foreign enemies and protect the territory. This time we can return victoriously, all thanks to the soldiers fighting to the death, not just my own credit. Therefore, I do not ask for any reward." When these words came out, everyone present was shocked.
Tu Yao was so angry that his face turned blue. He glared at Xu Feng with gritted teeth, thinking that this brat actually dared to refuse such a great gift. He had been paving the way for him with such good intentions, but he was so stubborn.
On the other side, Jin Mi, who had no idea, suddenly realized that the crow she had saved was not an ordinary creature, but a powerful divine bird! Thinking of this, Jin Mi's eyes lit up and she began to make a plan in her mind - how great it would be if she could get more spiritual power from this divine bird!
