A Journey Against the World
Chapter 103

Wang Xinian instantly turned around when he heard that there was a mouth-watering sound in his head, a voice that he was very familiar with and would not be able to forget. Who else if not the voice of the sister he disliked the most, Shua Xie.

However as he turned around, he did not find Shua Xie anywhere. He only saw Fengying with her troops bringing the girl into the kingdom.

Wang Xinian frowned, along with that he also stroked his two arms. Feeling goosebumps hearing Shua Xie's voice but not Shua Xie around him.

'Am I just hallucinating?' w.a.n.g Xinian asked in his heart.

"Your Highness the Princess, what's wrong?" A green-clothed maid with two-piece bun hair patted Wang Xinian's shoulder. The servant girl was Hongli, Wang Xinian's personal servant.

Wang Xinian looked towards Hongli as he felt a pat on his shoulder, he looked at Hongli a little surprised as the servant was standing so close to him.

"Hongli, you!" wang Xinian's shock along with raising his right hand pointed towards Hongli.

Hongli lowered his head as Wang Xinian's one finger stroked his hair, not fearing the truth but he just wanted to act fearfully in the presence of many other servants. Hongli had been Wang Xinian's personal servant since Wang Xinian was 10 years old. Of course the closeness of these two lovebirds is like a brother, equally cunning, and equally hard.

Since Wang Xinian's status had already gone up, of course Hongli's arrogance had also gone up. He would not even hesitate to punish the other servants if he did not like it, just because his master was now the Crown Princess he acted as he pleased.

But in Xuilin kingdom there was one servant that Hongli could not teach a lesson, Chi Su. Since Chi Su was left behind by Shua Xie, the servant's attitude had suddenly changed, was very alert, intelligent, and could be more cunning than Hongli himself. Plus Chi Su a martial expert, unlike Hongli, he was just an ordinary servant who had great courage just because his master was of a high standing.

Wang Xinian lowered his hand when he saw Shan Qiayu appear with his mother Third Concubine, Wei Eri. Wang Xinian's attitude suddenly changed, becoming graceful and calm in quick time. Surely did not want to show the side of his attitude that violated the etiquette of a Crown Princess.

Shan Qiayu and his mother Wei Eri saluted Wang Xinian, though in their hearts they were very reluctant to pay Wang Xinian a salute. Were it not for Wang Xinian's status now being the Crown Princess, naturally they would not be this respectful.

"Greetings to, Crown Princess," said Shan Qiayu and Wei Eri together.

Wang Xinian glanced at the two figures of the woman, the competition between them had not completely disappeared. As long as the Emperor had not given the position of Crown Princess officially, Wang Xinian had not been able to live quietly. Moreover, he knew, as long as the two figures were still alive, of course, his position could be frowned upon at any time.

Loh, Wang Xinian has not officially become the Crown Princess? Yeah, correct. Wang Xinian did indeed currently hold the title of Crown Princess, but that title he could not officially possess without the direct inauguration of the Emperor. The Emperor only recommended the position to Wang Xinian because Wang Xinian was already qualified to be the Crown Princess. And the announcement of the confirmation will be held in 3 days.

It's a coincidence with Shua Xie, isn't it?

"Yes," Wang Xinian replied briefly. He received the respect of the two figures with a jutek face.

Hearing Wang Xinian say 'Yes' Shan Qiayu and Wei Eri both re-enforced their bodies. Shan Qiayu spread his smile to Wang Xinian, and Wang Xinian returned Shan Qiayu's smile. If others looked at these two smiling figures, of course many would think that these two sisters were very well with each other. But the truth is their smile is just a lie.

"Sister, are you going inside too?" Shan Qiayu was making small talk, because if he were to say goodbye to Wang Xinian, he would claim that he was disrespectful for not speaking to him.

Wang Xinian rolled his eyeballs lazily, "Yes," Wang Xinian replied curtly and curtly as he folded his hands in front of his chest.

Without further ado, Wang Xinian instantly let his servants inside regardless of whether Shan Qiayu still wanted to talk to him or not.

Shan Qiayu clenched his hands furiously seeing Wang Xinian leave just like that. It was haughty just because its position was slightly higher than Shan Qiayu's.

"Basic ******! Just wait, the position of the Crown Princess will fall on my hands," Shan Qiayu muttered softly with neck veins that appeared on his forehead and neck.

Shan Qiayu, she was more familiarly called the Fourth Princess, she used to be so stupid and easily fooled by many people. But because of her experience in this world, the cruelty she faced firsthand, she began to learn to be a cruel woman. It used to be that only her mother Wei Eri used to think hard against the First Princess with the Second Concubine, but now it was precisely that she often took action according to what she thought it could benefit and save her.

Wei Eri reached Shan Qiayu's hand, shaking his head as Shan Qiayu looked at him. Wei Eri knew, Shan Qiayu had already changed from what he used to be, but that did not mean Shan Qiayu had to behave outside his limits. Because there are times and times when they can play well.

"Shan Qiayu, you should be able to guard your anger. Here, anger should not just explode."

Shua Xie had still been silent with a flat face ever since entering the main royal hall room. Throughout his journey he saw so many warriors staring at him with all sorts of expressions. But the essence of Shua Xie's journey he does not care about people around, but he prefers to see the circumstances and buildings around.

Shua Xie felt that nothing had changed from this kingdom other than the word aging. Many of the buildings that Shua Xie thought were supposed to be replaced with new ones, and either way what made the Emperor did not renovate some of the buildings or items.

Until Shua Xie arrived at the large black door made of special wood, carved waste lotus. In front of the door, two guards opened the door and there appeared to be an actual hall room filled with so many officials' souls. Fengying, he pulled the rope that bound Shua Xie took him inside with him, while the soldiers were waiting outside.

Fengying's arrival was with a beautiful girl who was tied with an ordinary rope, and tied up was not too tight. Attracting a lot of attention of the officials, who was the girl who was with Fengying?

Arriving in front of the Emperor's throne, Fengying saluted first before she conveyed what her purpose was to come to the main hall with a girl.

"Honor, Your Majesty the Emperor, may you always be bestowed with happiness" Fengying said as he knelt like a knight.

The figure of a middle-aged man, dressed in yellow with a black robe that was engraved with many beautiful carvings. The figure had quite exotic eyes, a gray color that was increasingly fading. The Emperor raised his hand, as if saying through his hand force that he received the Fengying salute.

Seeing the Emperor raise his hand, Fengying stood up again as usual. Then he opened his voice, introducing the figure of the girl who came with him.

All the officials were immediately shocked when they heard Fengying's explanation, and they all stared intently at Shua Xie with a difficult expression to explain. At first they thought Fengying brought the girl over for another crime, such as teasing Fengying. But it turned out to be much different from what they had expected.

"Who's the girl? Why would she recognize herself as Princess Shua Xie?"

"Isn't it from the rumors that Princess Shua Xie is dead?"

"I heard from many people that Princess Shua Xie is so ugly. But looking at the girl, I think the rumor is wrong to say Princess to Five is bad."

"Even many say that Princess Shua Xie is blind. Yes I remember when the last banquet that ended up making Princess Hanabi get an accident, Princess Five was the one who helped her. And at that time the Princess's eyes were covered in cloth, so her face was not very visible, but as behind many of the cloths, her skin was so smooth and white that Princess Shua Xie was supposed to be beautiful."

"Even then I only caught a glimpse of the Princess when she used acupuncture to help Princess Hanabi. He has a talent for medical science, and is much more intelligent than what is rumored."

Shua Xie could hear all sorts of words starting to make a sound, and all of those words came from various officials. Some of them had met Shua Xie when the last party was held which invited 4 guests from different countries. But for those who were not present because they were on duty who happened to be their duty away from the core kingdom, they had never seen or known a figure named Princess Shua Xie. They only heard from the rumors that Princess Shua Xie is very bad from the many Princesses in the world. And it is not appropriate to deny the title of Princess because of her ugliness.

Moreover, Princess Shua Xie grew up in the temple with a servant, and returned to the Xuilin kingdom due to the death of her mother.

So you can guess, many do not believe that the figure of the girl who came with Fengying was Princess Shua Xie. Whether they were looking directly or not, it was obvious that Princess Shua Xie had a bad face and was blind, but this one girl was far from the rumors, beautiful and not blind at all. Even this girl has a unique color which is a question of many people.

Do humans have such unique eyes?

On the other hand, Shua Xie was indirectly more focused on the Emperor sitting on the throne, but his ears were still very sharp hearing the various responses from the people around him. But here, Shua Xie was more focused on the Emperor, because the figure of the Emperor sitting on the throne right now was not Feng Kim. Except for everyone else, then where was Feng Kim? Actually what had happened so that the Emperor had changed.

"Where is Feng Kim?" shua Xie said quite loudly, everyone in the hall could hear Shua Xie's voice clearly. They stopped talking when Shua Xie asked.

"Where Feng Kim is, why would anyone else occupy that throne!" Once again Shua Xie spoke this time his tone rose by an octave.

All eyes were on Shua Xie, the girl who directly mentioned the name of the previous Emperor with ease, not leaving His Majesty's word, but instead mentioned Feng Kim's name directly. The officials looked at Shua Xie sharply, not expecting that the girl would directly mention Feng Kim by name.

The figure of the Emperor sitting on the throne changed the look on his face when he heard the name Feng Kim called so easily by an unknown girl.

"You dare to mention my brother's name directly, are you tired of living!" the Emperor said with a threatening tone.

"I asked, where is Feng Kim!? Are you deaf as Emperor!" Shua Xie did not comment on the Emperor's previous remarks. Very indifferent to the threat from the Emperor.

All eyes were rounded, again made to be shocked upon hearing Shua Xie fight the Emperor speak, with quite a loud and harsh tone.

Fengying who was close to Shua Xie instantly drew her sword, then pointed it right at Shua Xie's neck. The sword was in a good position, so the slightest Shua Xie moved then it would slash his neck.

But Fengying pointed her sword at the wrong person!

Shua Xie stared at the tip of the sword intently, the glare of his eyes running through the sword until he looked at the owner of the Fengying sword with an extremely terrifying gaze. Fengying's hand shook violently as Shua Xie cast an extremely sharp gaze, making his sword fall to the floor. Fengying retreated a few steps keeping her distance from Shua Xie.

"You! A witch!?" pekik Fengying hard. He realized Shua Xie's gaze contained a terrible thing, and it was able to make his entire body tremble violently. Fengying also thought that Shua Xie was a witch because he was able to make his body tremble just because of the gaze.

All the officials stood up while pulling their respective swords, they all pointed their swords at Shua Xie as Fengying said Shua Xie was a magician, and they could also see with their eyes that Shua Xie did have magic.

Shua Xie looked around, seeing so many swords drawn at him. It was funny that they wanted to stop Shua Xie with their wrecks, but Shua Xie just asked not to riot.

"I asked again! Where is Feng Kim!?" shua Xie asked in a very threatening tone.

The emperor who had just sat down to look at the bravery of Shua Xie was now rising from his throne, "Emperor Feng Kim was at his residence. He was sick and had to be treated!" The Emperor answered Shua Xie's question, causing Shua Xie to stare at the Emperor, "And the position of the Emperor fell on me because Emperor Feng Kim himself gave it to him, "The Emperor explained again.

Shua Xie frowned, Feng Kim fell ill to the point of lowering his throne to the gray-eyed man? Why could? Was the pain that Feng Kim suffered so severe that he thought of giving up his throne before he died? All those questions Shua Xie could not answer by himself, he still wanted to hear why Feng Kim had fallen ill.

"Why did Feng Kim get sick?" ask Shua Xie again.

"Because he regretted not being able to take care of Princess Shua Xie. No one knew for sure why Emperor Feng Kim could be that sad, but it was obvious that Emperor Feng Kim had fallen ill because of Princess Shua Xie. Every time he heard bad news about Princess Shua Xie, he was getting worse and it was troubling his health."

_________

**A/N: Feng Kim got sick? perhaps it is because of regret that he cannot take good care of Shua Xie. because Shua Xie is the Princess of Heaven who was entrusted to him by his own friends.
