Dance Of The Phoenix
172. Jiang Xixi Movement

While Gu Yuena was talking lightly with Su Churan and Vale, a freezing cold aura was approaching them like a coming storm.

Snow is still pouring out on this sunny day. However, this cold aura was definitely not from the snowy weather. It was the fluctuation of one's strength that came in large numbers.

Gu Yuena had felt this air when Bai Youzhe used her dragon air. However, just then the cold aura that came was filled with killing intent due to the state of battle. Now the situation is different. The cold had no killing intent, but was quite threatening.

Vale nodded and was frightened. Chu Xin immediately calmed the boy down, while Su Churan stood up while putting on a wary stance. He looked towards the origin of the cold sharply.

However, a gust of wind suddenly blew right past Su Churan just like that. Su Churan was shocked. He raised his hand and let out a sharp and cold pink radiance towards the figure that had just passed through it at the speed of the wind.

At that moment, the two forces clashed and exploded. The pink light was restrained by the cold white light, then spread out like fireworks.

The opponent was clearly stronger than him. But Su Churan did not attack again for the second time. He was petrified in a place with wide eyes when he saw the figure of a beautiful woman with white stripes and familiar dark blue irises.

Suddenly, Su Churan seemed to have been doused in cold water. He hurriedly bowed with a pale and regretful face while cursing himself.

"Mrs Xuan, forgive this subordinate for not recognizing you sooner." Su Churan was afraid of the fierce figure in front of her. He was not too afraid of Bai Youzhe, but he was extremely afraid of the cold-blooded dragon in front of him.

Xuan Yi was extremely famous and powerful. He had been in seclusion for hundreds of years and had never shown the trunk of his nose unless there was something important. Previously while he was at Tianshuang Palace, Su Churan had deliberately avoided him and did not return to the palace.

After all, Xuan Yi was extremely ruthless and shameless. How many times had Su Churan been frozen due to the quarrel of Xuan Yi and his teacher, traumatizing Su Churan to death. He had not expected to meet Xuan Yi again here.

Xuan Yi pulled his brows, recognizing Su Churan. But he was not interested and ignored it. He turned towards Gu Yuena, then sat down where Su Churan was sitting.

"Didn't you welcome this aunt?" Xuan Yi said arrogantly.

The corner of Gu Yuena's mouth twitched, but she still wore a light smile. "Aunt Xuan, welcome."

Xuan Yi shook his hand. "Once you go, forget that welcome. You're just like that boy, don't have a sweet mouth to please me."

"Sweet mouth is not entirely good. I'm just saying what I want." Gu Yuena said in a calm tone.

Xuan Yi snorted. "Well, you are indeed Gu Yuena as you should be." Then he laughed briefly, then propped up his face while looking at Gu Yuena who was .. empty?

Xuan Yi did not ask because there was no relationship with him. After all, Gu Yuena could instantly recognize him already showing that he was not bothered by his lost vision. He was not a short-minded person, so just act ordinary.

"Does staying at the Queen's Palace make you comfortable?" His tone was a little delicate, not too arrogant like earlier.

Gu Yuena nodded slightly. "Lately I've been in the Phoenix Palace and just returned today. However, during my time here, I was quite comfortable."

Xuan Yi snorted and sneered. "I thought you were going to tear this place apart after seeing the other women who were staying. I seem to look up to you too much."

"I can destroy this place just for that reason. Even if I'm upset, I can't take it out on someone else."

Xuan Yi put on a bitter expression. "Aren't you being too gentle? Can't, can't. What did the boy do until you acted like this? You don't look like the Gu Yuena I know at all!"

Gu Yuena chuckled. "I can't vent it on someone else because it will affect my face. But I'm not that patient either. I already know the reason, so better take advantage of some of the remaining things."

Xuan Yi thought for a moment. Then his gaze was directed at Jiang Xixi who appeared. His eyes are shining brightly.

Right, Gu Yuena wanted to take advantage of some opportunities such as putting a talented person like Jiang Xixi to be his subordinate. It was a better decision than to waste such a person, just like his disobedient nephew did.

Gu Yuena was not jealous either. He was really open-minded and very cunning!

Xuan Yi went towards Jiang Xixi like meeting an old friend. He was quite familiar with Jiang Xixi in the past. Jiang Xixi was his junior. The last time they met was when Jiang Xixi was a child, about 12 years old.

Although Xuan Yi was hundreds of years older than Jiang Xixi in the end, he still considered Jiang Xixi a junior.

On the other hand, Su Churan's eyes grew increasingly wide. He dropped his jaws when he saw Xuan Yi approaching Jiang Xixi familiarly. He approached Gu Yuena, then whispered to her, "You know where she's going?"

Gu Yuena said lightly. "Near Jiang Xixi."

"Madam Xuan looks very familiar to her. This is too dangerous, are you still going to let Jiang Xixi here? He will definitely be your love rival!"

Gu Yuena seemed to not care. "I don't think of him that way, he's just my subordinate. Nice work. Who else can I rely on as long as I take care of the Phoenix Region? Long Qianyu was also very busy."

"But .. Don't you just say it to His Majesty?" Su Churan was doubtful.

"I'll take care of my own problems. Jiang Xixi is under my control. If he's acting, I won't be disinclined by him either."

"Have you given that warning?"

Gu Yuena smiled obliquely. "If he's not stupid, he'll know what kind of threat he's under."

"But there's Madam Xuan supporting her ...."

Gu Yuena did not say anything more. He simply stayed at the place where he ate the snacks at the table, ignoring the familiarity of Xuan Yi and Jiang Xixi. Although there was still an arrogant tone from Xuan Yi's mouth, he was obviously very happy to be able to see Jiang Xixi.

Looking at Xuan Yi who was very familiar to him, Jiang Xixi secretly displayed a strange smile. He looked towards Gu Yuena who could not see that. I don't know what's on his mind.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Gu Yuena never took her love rival seriously. He did not need that, as he believed in Bai Youzhe. However, the familiarity of Xuan Yi and Jiang Xixi was quite disturbing to him.

It had been these few days that Xuan Yi was in the Ruler Palace. Bai Youzhe could not chase him away like when in Tianshuang Palace, plus he was getting busier. So let Xuan Yi wander like an unemployed. As long as it did not bother Gu Yuena, she would not bother reprimanding.

Xuan Yi had indeed stayed here for quite a while, but he had spent more time with Jiang Xixi. Gu Yuena was mostly alone, whereas Su Churan had escaped after learning of Xuan Yi's whereabouts and returned to Tianshuang Palace.

Gu Yuena was actually not too bothered. He trained hard and worked. Huang Jiu sometimes appeared to help her with Chu Xin, the rest she left to Jiang Xixi. To him, Jiang Xixi was only an employee.

Due to Gu Yuena's condition of not being able to see, most of the affairs of the Queen's Palace were left to Jiang Xixi. If you think about it, Gu Yuena was a bit annoyed. But he has no choice.

Bai Youzhe had contacted Luye Palace to find a way to treat Gu Yuena's eyes. They promised to tell if they had found a solution because this requires a long research. Moreover, he was also looking for a way to solve the nightmare magic that was currently sealed. He's been very busy.

Gu Yuena did not want to trouble Bai Youzhe anymore, so she arranged everything herself. Loss of vision makes all his senses more sensitive. This is good for his cultivation.

While everyone was busy, Gu Yuena decided to cultivate shut-in and fell asleep in deep cultivation. Without the demon monsters, he would have to cultivate closed in order to increase quickly.

It had been several days that Gu Yuena had not come out of closed cultivation, whereas Bai Youzhe busied herself in a desolate and desolate place. He busied himself in order not to get agitated from not seeing Gu Yuena for quite a long time for him.

Now, Wyvernia became bigger and stronger. Li Hua did not appear again. He should have been injured from the explosion caused by Gu Yuena the other day and had closed himself off.

As for Yang Xinyuan, it was still carrying out a massacre on the frontline along with the demon bones. Bai Youzhe hunted down the demon bone and continued to chase after it, until this second.

In the Queen's Palace, Jiang Xixi became increasingly prominent thanks to Xuan Yi's support as well as Gu Yuena's closeness in closed cultivation. She seemed to be the queen in the Queen's Palace during Bai Youzhe's battle on the Mitian Plains. All business is handled by him.

Even so, he still looked humble in front of the more powerful Xuan Yi. Xuan Yi's presence arguably gave her the greatest support, but on the other hand, Xuan Yi was also an obstacle to her. Xuan Yi's existence was enough to suppress his position in this place. If there was no Xuan Yi, he would be more powerful as long as Gu Yuena was not around. However, without Xuan Yi, her reputation would not be this great as long as Gu Yuena still served as the Queen.

Xuan Yi was like a double-edged sword in his eyes.

Today, Bai Youzhe returned from the war. He had won a round of battle on the side of the Yi Empire. However, his face was still unsightly when returning from the Mitian Plains.

Other than because Luye Palace had not provided a good enough solution, he had also not been able to take out the demon bones. Worse, the nightmare magic on Gu Yuena's body could not be eliminated by herself. Only the maker can eliminate it, or the death of the maker will eliminate the nightmare magic. That meant, he had to defeat Li Hua as well.

All of this frustrated Bai Youzhe!

Gu Yuena was still in closed cultivation, so she could only fill her brain with busy work. He did not even meet anyone during entering his own room and went back to struggling with work.

Jiang Xixi noticed all of that from afar while smothering her chest. He never approached Bai Youhze's private room as it had a feeling of fear in his heart. Moreover, Gu Yuena was clearly threatening him indirectly before cultivating closed-door. In fact, he had become even busier at the moment because of Gu Yuena. Even Xuan Yi could not interfere.

But fortunately, he had some clever and shrewd servants to handle all of this, so he had plenty of free time. Like at the moment.

Xuan Yi was here and supporting him. He had to make the most of this opportunity to replace Gu Yuena.

Jiang Xixi looked towards the small transparent bottle in her hand. Inside, there was green smoke moving about. It was a very powerful special medicine. Ordinary dragons will die if they inhale a little. However, Bai Youzhe was no ordinary dragon. How could he possibly give her the usual medicine?

Jiang Xixi suppressed her own aura to the limit where one could not sense her aura. He would only be considered an ordinary dragon with no aura. His body also became transparent and translucent.

After which, he pierced through Bai Youzhe's room door carefully like a ghost.

Jiang Xixi was silent for a moment when she saw the figure of a handsome man on the bench sitting while closing his eyes. His hair was no longer black, but white, something Jiang Xixi had never seen in as long as she knew Bai Youzhe.

The Bai family did have white hair and night blue eyes. This time, he saw Bai Youzhe's real figure sitting still. Perhaps he was cultivating until he was unaware of Jiang Xixi's arrival.

If it was like this, wouldn't it be difficult for Jiang Xixi? He knew it would not be that easy to rise to a high level instantly. But he's been trying hard for hundreds of years. That's not a minute!

Each drop of sweat seemed to turn into ice from Bai Youzhe's body. Jiang Xixi barely dared to approach, as the aura coming out from there completely suffocated her to death.

Without a care, Jiang Xixi went towards the table where the fragrance incense was located. The incense had an aromatherapy that calmed and refreshed the mind, even Jiang Xixi had already felt its effects. He did not know what happened to Bai Youzhe, but he did not care and directly poured the smoke in a transparent bottle into the incense.

At the moment when the contents of the incense were mixed with other ingredients, Bai Youzhe opened her eyes. Her blue irises looked extremely cold as if they were going to kill someone.

A cold aura instantly crept throughout the room. Jiang Xixi was startled, then turned to look at him. The aura crashed into his body and made his transparent figure show its form. The woman just fell.

Very strong!

Jiang Xixi was already very careful, but Bai Youzhe noticed it so quickly. Fortunately, the medicine had already entered the incense.

Jiang Xixi swallowed something from her hand and stood up with difficulty. However, the black figure hit him very hard and strangled his neck on the wall until his feet no longer touched the floor.

"Your courage is getting bigger." Bai Youzhe's mood was not very good. His gaze was like a starving monster with a crushing chill. His gaze was as if it was hollowing out Jiang Xixi's tormented head.

"Yes  ... Yours ...." Jiang Xixi wanted to say something and apologize, but the giggling was too loud to the point of making her claustrophobic. He can't breathe. His neck was about to be broken right then and lost his life.

Bai Youzhe was furious. Unfortunately, all of a sudden his entire strength shrank when he inhaled the strange scent of incense. He released Jiang Xixi just like that then went towards the incense stick.

His forehead wrinkled. There's poison in it.

The poison could be held back by the ice so Bai Youzhe bravely froze everything around her. The incense was frozen as well. But unfortunately, the remaining smoke Bai Youzhe inhaled was unable to freeze it.

He had drained a lot of strength in battle. He went back to rest and made sure Gu Yuena was fine then returned to busying himself. However, all of a sudden the woman sneaked in and gave him the unknown poison ....

The poison can affect it, which proves that the toxicity of the poison is very high. Jiang Xixi had drunk the antidote before pouring the poison into the incense so that it was not affected. Bai Youhze not being directly poisoned was enough to show his strength, but the poison was much stronger.

Jiang Xixi would not have expected that he would be caught. It should have instantly made Bai Youhze faint before coming to her senses so she could not find him. However, it did not mean that Jiang Xixi did not have a plan.

He had no intention of killing Bai Youzhe. He just wanted to set a trap. That was why, the poison would not be deadly to Bai Youzhe. Bai Youhze would only feel her entire strength drain and become weak, or even faint. Even if he did not faint, he could only helplessly remain like a cripple until the hellfire neutralized the poison.

Unfortunately, Jiang Xixi would not make things any easier.

Bai Youhze was unable to support her body anymore and fell down. His hands were still trying to hold back his body which felt increasingly heavy, then sat down while trying to neutralize the poison. It's gonna take a lot of time.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry. I didn't have much of a chance and had to. I have no intention of killing you. The poison won't kill or hurt you ...." Jiang Xixi stood up normally while rubbing her sore neck. It even caused a terrible bruise.

Jiang Xixi continued her sentence, "I've been here for over 100 years. I came to be your partner, but you didn't take a glance at me and even made me a tool to destroy the Demon Lord. Even though it was my suggestion, and things were going well, I still could not get what I wanted even though you had allowed me to act as I wanted in the palace. I can only make selfish choices."

Bai Youzhe was only focused on recovering her condition. He automatically heard Jiang Xixi, but could not give any reaction. Even if he was in a normal state, he would not give the slightest reaction. He had never looked at Jiang Xixi and only considered her like everyone else.

He knew Jiang Xixi's ambitions. That's why he didn't want to interact with her any longer. He did not treat Jiang Xixi badly or well, he was indeed like that. Because their interactions were so little, he actually did not understand why Jiang Xixi was so ambitious. Even if the woman wanted to become the supreme ruler, under these conditions, Jiang Xixi could kill him in one stab.

"It's probably going to be something really silly. But I don't have a choice. I was angry, and felt I had no self-respect. Xuan Yi is on my side, you won't be able to kill me if you want to. Moreover ... You probably wouldn't have guessed that I would be so selfish by taking something from you."

Bai Youzhe had still not moved as long as Jiang Xixi approached her. A silver light appeared on one finger of Jiang Xixi's right hand. He placed his index finger between Bai Youzhe's brows to create an illusion. It might be painful for Jiang Xixi herself, but she no longer cared.

Bai Youzhe could not be his. He also could not be here after today and could only rely on Xuan Yi's protection. But one day, he'll come back to take everything.

He didn't love Bai Youzhe, he just wanted her throne.

"If I give birth to the crown prince for you, will you still kill me?" Jiang Xixi slightly smiled, then pressed her finger between Bai Youzhe's eyebrows which made Bai Youzhe's eyes spontaneously open.

Jiang Xixi used an illusion to confuse Bai Youzhe. Didn't he love Gu Yuena so much? Jiang Xixi will replace Gu Yuena tonight.

In less than a minute, Bai Youzhe's confused gaze now became clear and saw Gu Yuena slicing red before her.
