PPFC 121 - Ma Zhangsun
Fei Chen looked at the awakened Su Xiulan while showing a puzzled expression. The woman held her aching head then looked around her.
“What happened husband? Why are you looking at me like that?” Su Xiulan looked at how the expressions of Liu Xianlin, Xhin Li Wei, Ling Xiyao and Ma Mingyan were keeping their distance.
“They're afraid of you for thinking you're still ruled by Mao Ruyue.” Fei Chen approached Su Xiulan and explained.
“Suami, why did you know that name?” Su Xiulan clenched her hands tightly and lowered her head, “Have I killed anyone?”
Fei Chen shook his head and stroked Su Xiulan gently, “I fought against Mao Ruyue and many things happened when I fought against her. You don't have to worry, Xiulan. You haven't killed anyone.”
“Really? Thank goodness..” Su Xiulan breathed a sigh of relief then she saw Liu Xianlin who let out a long sigh.
“I'm not sure I entrusted Chen to you. I'd better go to the Capital of Mafei to make sure you don't mess with Chen!”
As usual Liu Xianlin showed a hostile look at Su Xiulan. Fei Chen mediated the two and decided to take everything with him.
“My sweet husband, are you sure you invited him?” Su Xiulan pointed at Liu Xianlin who was approaching her.
“I have no other choice. The debate between you two really bothered me.” Fei Chen scratched his ear while putting on an annoyed expression.
“What did you say Chen?” Liu Xianlin folded her hands under her chest and stared intently at Fei Chen, as did Su Xiulan who did the same.
“Suami sweet... You should have defended your wife after you told me I was your woman! ” Su Xiulan spoke in a soft tone before snapping.
Fei Chen closed his ears, ‘I understand why Xiulan said so, but Aunt Liu did an action I never thought of.’.

Meanwhile in the capital Mafei looks crowded throughout the city. Lanterns fill every corner of the house and buildings and studded ornaments show its beauty.
The Ma Palace that was now the seat of Ma Zhangsun's power in the new Imperial Capital of Ma was filled with beautiful diamonds. The walls and some of the decorations inside the building were all made of gold and diamonds.
All the wealth that filled Ma Palace belonged to the Fei family. The previous capital of the Ma Empire had been destroyed by the massacre that Ma Zhangsun had committed while taking over the government and pursuing the figure of Ma Mingyan.
Inside the Ma Palace looks a figure of a man with a burly body and his chest covered with thin feathers. The man was Ma Zhangsun who sat on the throne.
“Brother Guan! Why did you let that bastard Hen Dong betray you?!” Ma Zhangsun held a cup containing wine.
“The bastard enjoyed Xuan Peng's wife alone! Didn't I ever tell you that I don't allow treason!” Ma Zhangsun slammed the cup filled with wine after saying that.
The man standing beside Ma Zhangsun looked so calm before speaking up.
“Emperor, the betrayal of Hen Dong has indeed tarnished the good name of the Devil Sword Stream, but the purpose of us calling him here is definitely because we have known the information regarding what happened in the Xuan family right?” The calm man was Guan Ji Ma.
“Yes, I will make that bastard an example to everyone so that no one can oppose me!” Ma Zhangsun smiled grinningly and released such a dense murderous aura.
But Ma Zhangsun immediately drew the murderous aura as two people came through the front door of Ma Palace. The man and woman walking side by side made Ma Zhangsun, Guan Ji Ma and the three Elders of the Demon Sword Stream salute.
“Greetings, Senior Situ!”
“Greetings, Senior San!”
