A black light suddenly fell in the middle of the already severely damaged imperial hall.
ZiXuan rubbed the corner of his bloody lips and looked fiercely at someone who had just appeared after the black light disappeared, shortly after its appearance, people in black clothes walked in, encircling it. That's by a lot more than the first attack.
The beautiful woman stood straight in the front row. His face looked calm and looked at ZiXuan's handsome face.
"I'm so glad I have a husband. Otherwise, maybe I'll fall in love with you, Your Majesty." His voice sounded haggling. Very soft but dangerous.
"Who are you?" tanya ZiXuan who also looked calm. When did the man seem out of control?
"I? Does it matter at times like these?"
ZiXuan fell silent, not responding to him.
"Your Majesty, don't you think about how your beloved wife's fate is out there? How did you let him out by himself?"
"How he is, you don't have to think about it. Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind this was all just a woman? Who's the loser who sent you?"
Yunniang grunted violently. "Your Majesty, you are too arrogant. That woman you underestimated, right now can even stand tall in front of you."
A second later the woman suddenly smiled and continued, "But it's okay. Right now I feel happy. Today is your empress's birthday celebration, of course I didn't come empty-handed." As he said, something appeared in his hand.
It's a box and earrings.
"See." He raised it in front of everyone which made some people instantly aware of it.
"Bu—doesn't that belong to the empress?" jingli said. He clearly remembered it because he was the one who helped Yuan to prepare. Including preparing clothes and accessories.
ZiXuan still looked calm and said, "Then why?"
"Emperor, you're too naive. Do you still not understand?"
Yunning dropped the earrings with an annoyed look then turned to the small box she was carrying. "Well, then look at this one," he said excitedly again.
He opened the box and made Jingli who had focused on watching him fall.
Li Wei restrained the girl and carried her into an embrace.
"You! What are you doing, brother?!" The shrill voice solved the silent state.
Seeing who was shouting that and what objects the mysterious beautiful woman was carrying made the situation even more gripping.
Yunniang looked at Feng Ji who had already seen him with a blaze in the eyes.
She smiles. "Is this her sister? Ah, it's beautiful. All of the Zhou royal family are handsome and beautiful, even I heard that the girls there are also beautiful. Princess, will you invite me there? I heard, the Zhou kingdom is a beautiful and peaceful place," he said with a plain face.
"Omong empty what are you saying! Where's my brother?!" asked Feng Ji. He almost wanted to directly pounce on Yunniang if only Prince Liu did not hold him back.
"Ah, you're in too much of a hurry. I just want to talk to you. But it's okay, I'll answer. Your sister is of course safe depending on whether her husband wants to work with me," Yunniang said, looking back at ZiXuan.
"Oh? What do you want me to do?" ZiXuan raised his eyebrows. He was not at all bothered by what Yunniang had shown.
Yunniang grumbled in annoyance. He was thinking did this emperor not believe him? He should have actually searched for Yuan and borrowed one finger!
"Let go of all your strength! I don't care if you believe it or not but you have no other choice now! Surrender and I won't let go of all this trash and your queen."
Realizing who that person was, ZiXuan held his breath. Immediately a red tendril came out of his hand and brought the person closer before these evil people caught it.
"Why are you here? Where's your sister-in-law? What's going on?" His defense collapsed upon seeing Youhua coming with puffy eyes and clothes stained with dirt and blood. His mind was immediately fixed on the woman standing in front of him.
"Apa—"
Youhua shook his head weakly. He cried and said, "They didn't catch him, but they killed him!" With trembling hands, Youhua gave a sword that looked like a whip to her brother. The blood on the sword was still not dry.
ZiXuan stared at the sword blankly. His hand reached out and took the sword from Youhua.
Yunniang blinked confusedly. What the hell is going on? Why is it like this?
It happened very fast. The golden orange light fell bombarding the black-clad troops that were led by Yunniang. In just a matter of seconds, half of his army had already been wiped out. Vaporized into dust spots and disappeared upwards.
Yunniang and Young Master Xu were immediately on standby staring at Zi Xuan who was still lowered with the hand that was holding the silver sword.
"disgusting. What disgusting people!" Those hate speech sounded along with ZiXuan who raised his slapped face.
He turned his head to look at his people including the three generals who were still standing firmly. "Kill everything. Kill them!" Under ZiXuan's orders, all of them returned to attack.
ZiXuan pushed Youhua slowly towards the noble ladies who were in an orange veil. This protector was different from the one ZiXuan had first taken out. This was his strongest protector, what he regretted was that at first he underestimated the enemy too much so he hesitantly chose an ordinary protective veil.
But who in life has never made a mistake?
ZiXuan raised his right hand to the void. And a blue light flash appeared there. Previously, he had already kept the Yuan sword, and currently a silver-colored sword with a white handle replaced it.
Yunniang felt short of breath. He could feel the pressure on his blood as the sword appeared. This sword is no ordinary sword. It was a hereditary holy artifact.
He was just about to retreat but the attack from the sword appeared as fast as the wind slashed towards him.
A deep red liquid seeped down his clothes. Fortunately, the shirt was dark so the blood that had just come out was not too visible.
Yunniang was thrown backwards and spurted a mouthful of blood from his mouth.
"We can't beat him. Back away!" That shout sounded from Young Master Xu. The man came to Yunniang and helped him support the woman's body.
Yunniang felt his gaze begin to blur. Will he fail? How are they going to get out now? Now, he couldn't even escape anymore.
ZiXuan looked at the two people hatefully. His killing intent was clearly visible in his deep eyes. He smiled sinisterly, pulled back FengJian and took out a bright blue-colored tendril from his hand.
"Where to go? You killed him, so you take him to heaven and then you go back to hell!"
The tendril pointed rapidly at Yunniang and Young Master Xu, about to bind and find his bones but another black light appeared together and brought the two people away.
"Damn!"
He had intended to chase after that person, but there was something more important than that. He had to find his wife first, then deal with the rebels.
Li Wei ran over to him. "Everything's destroyed. Your Majesty, our prison is also burned to the ground. Some prisoners managed to escape and others burned to death" he reported.
Zi Xuan pressed down on his chest. Slowly clang and walked over to Youhua.
"Where is he?"
