2 Years later.
The Xuan imperial family palace.
Dozens of soldiers entered the room with neat row formations. Complete with their armor and a sword on his arm. Led by a palace general who led them into the room.
And their faces were firm and authoritative before the emperor on the throne. Although the body has tired of looking for the existence of two people who are still not found.
"Honor the emperor!!"
"Honor the Queen!!"
The sound of respect echoed throughout the room. Respect the leaders they have served for years.
Emperor Xuan Zhen raised his hand. "No need to be sad."
"Thank you, your majesty."
Before long, their leader who was the general of the palace guard took a few steps forward. Respect for the emperor to give a report.
"Your noble report! Our search for two more years.." He paused for a second. "For nothing.." Continue in a quiet voice.
Emperor Xuan Zhen sighed in frustration. The sad face he could no longer hide behind the emperor's friendly mask. Clearly, he had expected from the start that they would not all find the seventh prince. While Yang Qiujiu could only cry silently, with one of the servants rubbing his back.
While Xuan Rong and Xuan Yao only glanced at each other anxiously. All this time, he had not told their father the truth. When Xuan Rong spoke with Shen Lan with the bell, the man replied instead,
'The emperor will know in time. You shut up and don't open your voice..'
Maybe Xuan Rong understood. He did not want Xuan Chen's calm to be disturbed by the hunt for the empress and grand concubine. Just imagine if these two sorcerers knew the truth long ago. Perhaps Xuan Chen would never calm down to practice.
After a moment of silence, the palace guard continued, "we've searched all over Dongfang, then Zhenbei, Nanjing to Xihui. But the seventh Prince's trail was completely undetectable despite the use of a spiritual tracker."
"But when we were about to enter Zhongjian came, the guards there did not allow us to enter. I don't know what happened there. But somehow I felt, the seventh prince was there." He tried to give confidence to the emperor.
Emperor Xuan Zhen nodded. "There's a possibility.."
"Also, there's one more place we can't go.." Said the palace guard again. "That's the sky."
"Sky realm?" Emperor Xuan Zhen muttered.
But the words of the palace general made Jiang Jinwei and Han Qiangshu feel a little distracted. Because two years ago, they were the ones who planned for Xuan Chen to go to the sky realm. Exactly to the fox clan's place for the chairman to know the relationship between the two of them. Then in the law.
"The sky is the sacred place of the Goddess God.." Jiang Jinwei. "It is impossible for them to allow humans to enter there. If only you guys were allowed in, the search would be futile.."
"Right, your highness the empress." The palace general's. "But, two years ago I had heard he had a Nine-tailed Fox divine beast that came from the sky realm. I'm afraid the sacred animal took him there and I don't know what's going on.."
"Yi Changyin?" Emperor Xuan Zhen muttered. "He is a good boy, I hope Xuan Chen is with him now. He's still weak, needs protection from someone."
"If you dare to harm the seventh prince, can you still be considered a good child?" Jiang Jinwei suddenly.
"Sir, you must not just accuse that the girl has harmed my son!" Reject emperor Xuan Zhen.
"The seventh prince was lost leaving the destruction of his home. I'm afraid the damn fox did it" Accused Jiang Jinwei again which made Xuan Rong and Xuan Yao itch to answer. But it was held back when concubine Xian and concubine De gave a warning to the two of them from a distance.
"Sir, I can't believe Yi Changyin is that bad." Sahut Yang Qiujiu with a voice that was slowed down. For fear of misguidance and ended up being punished by the empress.
"How dare you fight me!" Snapped at Jiang Jinwei who was already expected by Yang Qiujiu.
"Heh, stop!" Emperor Xuan Zhen interceded. "You can't draw conclusions without proof!" Added warning. Making Jiang Jinwei silent with a thousand and one scorn in his heart.
Then the emperor turned his head towards the palace general and his army. "You are allowed to leave and be relieved of duty temporarily. But remember, you are still forbidden to party because the seventh prince has not returned!"
"Okay, your highness!"
After the soldiers exited the room, Jiang Jinwei spoke again. "Your Majesty, it's been two years. The seventh prince has not been found. There's a chance he's dead."
"Empress!"
"Sir, I can't believe my son is dead!" Yang Qiujiu exclaimed in no way.
"Shut up!" Snap Jiang Jinwei. Then he continued, "what if it's really dead? Are we not very sinners, for we do not immediately make a monument of respect for him?"
"But there is no evidence to suggest that Xuan Chen is dead!" Reject emperor. The queen said too late. But unfortunately no one dared to fight back.
"Fight?" Jiang Jinwei said with a slanted smile. "Then the house is destroyed, the owner disappears. The evidence shows that they've been killed by irresponsible people.."
Those words made Wen Yuexin clench her hands. After all it was the empress and the grand concubine who planned all this. And she was just a maid behind the scenes. Still Wen Yuexin felt guilty about this.
"The seventh prince is still weak. Yi Changyin had yet to recover from his wound. Are.. are they able to fight the minions who destroyed their homes?" Add it with a triumphant tone.
"The Empress, but they have Shen Lan." Xuan Rong chimed. Make everyone's eyebrows wrinkle. "Shen Lan is a dark blue rose spirit flower. His strength was enormous and could not be defeated. I can't believe they just lost."
"Princess Xuan Rong.." Han Qiangshu Sahut. "With you mentioning his name, it's impossible to make us all believe."
"But what the youngest brother said is true!" Xuan Yao defended his sister.
"Do you have any evidence?" Han Qiangshu asked which made the two of them corner. Right.they have no proof.
"I'm.."
"That's it!" Jiang Jinwei. "Your highness, we should immediately make a memorial for the seventh prince."
Making emperor Xuan Zhen sigh in frustration. "Sir, I still don't believe your words.."
"Your majesty!" Whine Jiang Jinwei. But it was not at all patronized by emperor Xuan Zhen.
His body and shape are like an eagle. Nah! It is impossible for an eagle to have fire feathers like a Phoenix. Wait, is...
"Phoenix?!" Jiang Jinwei was surprised.
The Phoenix bird he was referring to was getting closer and bigger. Not too big, but arguably big when compared to the size of birds in general.
Sure enough, the Phoenix bird entered the room and landed in the middle of the room. His aura was so pressing that no one could throw him away.
But suddenly the Phoenix bird turned into a teenager dressed all in blue and milk-white hair. Someone who knew him, would definitely call him by the name of 'Feng'er'. Yes, he was a divine beast belonging to Xuan Chen.
Everyone was naturally shocked, clearly they knew that this one before him was a divine beast. Yet even more shockingly, the Phoenix was paying respects to emperor Xuan Zhen.
"Greetings to emperor Xuan Zhen.."
"Phoenixes? What the hell are you here for? Are you sending someone?" Asked emperor Xuan Zhen kindly. However he was a little afraid of the ferocity of the Phoenix if it was already angry.
Feng'er nodded. "True, I sent someone to deliver a message. But before that I will introduce myself first." Feng'er slapped both his hands in front of his chest.
"I am Feng'er, the Divine Phoenix beast contracts your seventh son, prince Xuan Chen."
That made Emperor Xuan Zhen and the others surprised instead of playing. Just now Jiang Jinwei was talking about Xuan Chen's death, but before long appeared a Phoenix claiming to be Xuan Chen's contracted beast.
Yet emperor Xuan Zhen had yet to believe it just like that. "There's evidence?"
"Legenda says, a father will feel the warmth of his son's blood wherever he is." Feng'er injured his finger to the point of bleeding. "Then, check this blood, do you feel the blood of prince Xuan Chen inside?"
The blood that came out from Feng'er's finger floated in the air like it was being flowed by something translucent towards emperor Xuan Zhen. The emperor immediately received the blood on his palm. Then examine it with spiritual energy.
Before long his pupils dilated, "Xuan Chen?" Emperor Xuan Zhen nodded proudly. "Yes!! This is Xuan Chen!!" It was his exclamation that made Yang Qiujiu cry out of pleasure. This could prove that Xuan Chen was still living safely in this world.
While Jiang Jinwei and Han Qiangshu were only speechless harboring his anger. The Phoenix could have messed up his plan. And means.. Xuan Chen and Yi Changyin were still living safely!
Meanwhile Feng'er took out a shining diamond ball in his hand. "This is a message from the seventh prince and Miss Yi." Without waiting for Emperor Xuan Zhen to comment, Feng'er threw the diamond ball on the floor.
Shortly after, a light appeared and formed the shadows of Yi Changyin and Xuan Chen. They look real, even if they're just holograms.
"Xuan Chen!!" Emperor Xuan Zhen was extremely unable to bear when he saw the illusion of his son's face. Until the empress stopped the emperor who was about to go towards the illusion of Xuan Chen. Just like Yang Qiujiu, yet he held on for a while. Because this conscious is just a real illusion.
Xuan Chen and Yi Changyin the illusion were moving. Where they bend their knees and bow their hands in front of their chest.
"Xuan Chen saluted his father and mother."
Then it was said by Yi Changyin, "Yi Changyin pays respect to his highness the emperor and concubine Yang."
Xuan Chen again spoke, "father earlier forgive your unfilial son. For two years, he sent no messages to give news. We're too busy to train, forgive us all."
Making the emperors Xuan Zhen and Yang Qiujiu want to cry.
"Dad, are you and mom okay there? I hope it's like that. Even if I can't hear your voice in person, at least we can still send a message in this spare time."
"Mom and Dad don't have to worry. I've always been fine here, studying at Tianjin academy. And. I also apologize for not informing you that we were accepted here two years ago. The circumstances were urgent, and we were chasing after an unknown person."
"Dad, mother.please understand and forgive us."
Yi Changyin continued. "Your highness, concubine Yang. I have good news for you too. First, we were both accepted as the academy's best students.."
Hearing that Jiang Jinwei and Han Qiangshu were wide-eyed unexpectedly. So did Xuan Ye and Xuan Hua.
"Then, the seventh prince always progressed very rapidly while training. In fact he had mastered dozens of weapons science and spiritual science. And a few other days, the seventh prince would immediately step on the star cultivation level. You guys should be happy to hear this.."
Clearly, it became a matter of pride for the emperors Xuan Zhen and Yang Qiujiu. They had not expected that the crippled and crippled seventh prince would turn three hundred and sixty degrees in such a short period of time.
Consort De and concubine Xian and their two children were also happy. Moreover, Wen Yuexin who felt happy even though there was still a mist of jealousy in her heart. This news was shocking, especially for Xuan Chen's enemies. Xuan Ye and Xuan Hua. Then the empress and the great concubine. They were increasingly anxious that the position of the seventh prince would be shifted with strength.
And. the support of the sky nature. It was impossible for Wen Yuexin to misdeliver the place. Especially if other than Yi Wang let them go?
Then Yi Changyin continued, "his Majesty the Emperor and concubine Yang need not worry about the guarding. Here are me, Yi Xuemei and Shen Lan. Feng'er and Dragon.."
Yi Changyin's words paused as Feng'er and Heilong suddenly appeared nearby. With the form of a fiery red duck and a black snake wrapped around his neck.
"Then the snow scorpion." Along with the black scorpion that changed color to blue. "Actually this scorpion is black. Last year, he showed the originals. We are very pleased, having many guards and friends for the seventh prince."
Suddenly within the illusion appeared a roaring fire spirit lion near Xuan Chen. Especially close to Feng'er's ears. Making a Phoenix bird as big as a duck immediately gushed out the fire spirit lion with his hotter fire, and made him run away.
"And that one was a fire spirit lion, they were also our friends."
Then Xuan Chen continued, "father, maybe this is the only money message we can convey. In a few months we will be returning home as graduates of Tianjin academy. Please wait for us."
"Goodbye.." Say them simultaneously. Then the illusion disappeared in the empty air. Returned to be a diamond ball picked up by Feng'er.
He saluted again, "I will go, your highness the emperor.."
Feng'er again changed his form into a fire Phoenix and left the blue haru atmosphere in the room. That was only felt by Emperor Xuan Zhen, Yang Qiujiu and the others. While the rest just silently harbored anger because of 'iri'. Jiang Jinwei is an example.
Look at Xuan Chen who had already turned strong and had many guards. It was impossible for Xuan Ye and Xuan Hua not to be jealous.
