Heartless Phoenix Queen - C175
Violet Garden’s heart tightened. Remembering that tomorrow he was going to personally meet her, she picked up the bowl of bird nest. Her eyebrows were like the crescent moon, and her beauty was so beautiful that she said, “Drink this bowl of bird nest, finish it and rest early.”
Helian Xuanyin scratched the tip of her nose lovingly, “Seeing that you’re so obedient, I’ll drink this bowl of bird nest.”
Zi Yuan handed the bowl in his hand to Helian Xuan Yi. Watching him finish the bowl of bird nest and Helian Xuan Yi drank the last mouthful of the bird nest, he smiled in a rather comforting manner.
It was probably because they had been busy with battles in recent days and were truly too tired. A short while later, Helian Xuanyin’s body softly leaned towards the Violet Garden and fell into a deep sleep. The Violet Garden faintly sighed, then took off her cloak to cover him. Nannan said, “Just sleep quietly like this. Even if you can only rest for a while, it’s still good …”
Violet Garden left the imperial study and came to the great hall. The cold moonlight shone through the windows onto the cold stone floor, shining on the armor that reflected the cold air!
She approached the armor and gently stroked it. Tomorrow, she hoped that this armor would bring her husband great luck!
The next day, just as the first glimmer of dawn lit up the sky, Zi Yuan woke up. In reality, she hadn’t slept well for the entire night. When she arrived at the royal study, she saw that Helian Xuan Yi had already taken off his noble dragon robe and changed it into sparkling and cold armor, ready to go.
Zi Yuan walked up to the mirror and gently placed the helmet on his head. She saw the blood-red banner on the helmet and heard him say, “I will definitely return in triumph this time. Wait for me.”
Zi Yuan nodded. “I’ll definitely wait for you.”
Before he left, Helian Xuanyin stretched out his hand and placed it on Violet Garden’s lower abdomen. Although he had not seen any bulges, he knew that there was a small life that was growing inside. “Child, you have to protect the victory of the entire Northern State of Yue and wait for father’s return with your mother.”
At this moment, Yuan Hao and General Li Zhen, who were protecting the palace, seemed to have noticed Zi Yuan’s distraction. They looked at each other in dismay for a moment before General Yuan Hao went up and whispered into Zi Yuan’s ear, “Empress, Empress?”
These repeated calls made Zi Yuan retract his thoughts. She turned her head to look at him. General Yuan Hao continued, “Empress, what should we do now?”
Zi Yuan pondered for a while, but didn’t reply. He turned around to look at Murong and Feng Lingxue, who were standing in front of the army. His slender brows furrowed as he thought, “These two people are definitely not easy to deal with.”
Murong Xiu and Feng Lingxue also looked up at the tower. They could only see a chilling figure, but couldn’t clearly see that person’s face!
Zi Yuan waved the red cloak behind him. The cloak fluttered in the wind, shaking off loud sounds. Zi Yuan mounted his horse and ordered the soldiers guarding the gates to open them. She rode her horse out of the city to meet the enemy!
Murong Xiu and Feng Lingxue hadn’t expected that the one sent out by the Northern State would be a general they had never seen before. Their gazes were fixed on the general, whose tall figure in armor looked somewhat like a woman’s charm. They couldn’t help but take a few more glances and slowly move away from the general’s body.
Is this the Violet Garden that they know?
Zi Yuan jumped down from his horse with the red tasseled spear in his hand. The anger in his eyes startled both Murong Xiu and Feng Lingxue!
“Aren’t you attacking the city? Just bring it on! ” Zi Yuan’s voice was as cold as an icehouse, provoking a chill from Murong Xiu and Feng Lingxue!
Feng Lingxue was about to ask something, but Murong Xiu stopped her. He looked at the Violet Garden with a complex expression. “Violet Garden, why are you fighting today?!”
Violet Garden’s brows furrowed when she heard this. The corner of her mouth seemed to be moving something. At this moment, she was the heroine in the eyes of the soldiers of the Northern Yue State. She was a target of worship for everyone! But who would have known that she was fighting only for the sake of the Helian Profound Wings, the nation of Helian Profound Wings! It was her country, too, and she would win with its victory, with its honor.
“Cut the crap. If you want to fight, then fight!” Zi Yuan clenched the red tassel gun in his hand tightly. The red tassels gun seemed to contain a long snake of anger, which directly spurred them into not daring to come close.
When Murong Xiu heard how cold the Violet Garden was to him, he couldn’t help feeling chilled to the bone. He furrowed his brows in contemplation. Even if the Violet Garden forced him to fight her, he would absolutely not fight her!
Feng Lingxue glanced at him with the same intention in her eyes: they would not fight with Zi Yuan!
Zi Yuan’s heart shook like a drum. It wasn’t that she wasn’t afraid, it was that she was very afraid, but this was the only path she could take!
“Why didn’t you make a move? Are you looking down on me? Or could it be that the Western Fairies and the Dongping Kingdom were originally cowards and cowards? ” Zi Yuan used words to provoke them, forcing them to fight him.
Feng Lingxue frowned when she heard this. Actually, even if they were to fight against the Purple Garden, it might not necessarily be her doing! However, the situation today wasn’t that she was going to challenge the two of them alone, but rather that she was going to fight against the armies of Western Parting and Dongping Kingdom alone! How could she win against so many soldiers by herself?
“Zi Yuan, you should return. This battlefield isn’t a place for a woman to stay!” Mu Rong Xiu wasn’t belittling Violet Garden because she was a girl, but rather because he didn’t want her to be harmed in the slightest!
These feelings couldn’t be allowed on this battlefield, but after saying those words, Murong Xiu felt that his words were stupid. Clearly, in the Northern State of Yue, Zi Yuan was the most powerful person there, yet he actually killed her so recklessly. Was he really treating her like a woman and not an enemy? Murong Xiu’s heart skipped a beat. When he remembered that he was being represented by his own country, he readjusted his state of mind and looked at Zi Yuan, who stood opposite him, as if he hadn’t relaxed at all. He always looked like he was about to enter the final battle.
Because the Violet Garden only had one goal at the moment, and that was to defeat them, no words could shake her resolve!
“Cut the crap, are you guys going to fight or not? If not, then retreat!” Zi Yuan looked at the great army behind them. It was so dark that he couldn’t tell how many people there were! Her eyes were deep, and the contents could not be seen clearly.
With the long spear in hand, she turned around and sat on her horse. Her long spear was like a sharp sword as it pierced towards Murong Xiu’s chest. Murong Xiu didn’t hold any weapon in his hand; he merely sidestepped and dodged Zi Yuan’s attack!
Seeing that the spear didn’t hit Murong Xiu, the next move from the Purple Garden became even more ruthless. Feng Lingxue, who was riding the horse, was startled! He didn’t expect a girl from the Violet Garden to be so ruthless!
“Xiu, are you still being lenient?” “If you still don’t act, you’ll die at the hands of the Violet Garden!” Feng Lingxue was watching these two fight in a safe zone, and could only watch in panic!
The battle at the Purple Garden was extremely intense, and the soldiers of the Northern Yue also felt their hearts churning as they watched from behind! Since their general was so powerful, they naturally couldn’t help but admire her in their hearts!
Just as Murong Xiu was about to make his move, a deep male voice came from the tower. When Zi Yuan heard the man’s voice, he couldn’t help but put down the spear in his hand. The person standing on top of the city gate tower was the king of the Northern Yue, Helian Xuan Yi!
When Helian Xuanyin looked at the Violet Garden, her eyes were filled with complex emotions. There was pain in her heart, but there was also a hint of anger! She actually dared to take the risk alone …
Helian Xuanyin walked down from the city gate tower. When the city gate was opened, Zi Yuan’s gaze had always been on him, moving away from him. Dressed in the same armor as her, Helian Xuanyin walked step by step in front of her horse and extended his hand towards her.
Zi Yuan handed him his hand in shock. When they were in each other’s hands, there was a warmth in his heart that had never been there before!
Helian Xuanyin carried Violet Garden off her horse and she raised her head to look at him. His eyes were as black as paint and they flickered with a light she had never seen before!
“You should stay in the palace and wait for me to come back, not fight me yourself!” Helian Xuan Yi glanced at Violet Garden’s armor. It was precisely the same armor he had worn before!
“But …” Zi Yuan had a lot of things he wanted to say to Helian Xuanyin, but when the words reached his mouth, he didn’t know what to say.
“Even if I die, I must protect you and the child in my womb.” The words of Helian Xuanyin struck the heart of the Violet Garden one after another!
Helian Xuanyin walked around the Violet Garden. He ordered someone to escort the Violet Garden back, and the Violet Garden saw that the city gate was once again opened. The person who came out was Northern General Ye Blue Cang!
So it turned out that Xuan Yi had already come up with a plan, but with Lan Cang and the two of them as the vanguards, could they really retreat?
“Xuan Yi, I’ll go with you!” Zi Yuan called out from behind Helian Xuan Yi, but Helian Xuan Yi acted as if he didn’t hear anything. He gripped his sword and jumped onto the horse!
The Violet Garden knew that Helian Xuanyin didn’t want her to be in danger, but how could she watch him take the risk!
Even if she didn’t want to, the soldiers still invited her into the city. If she didn’t want to, they could only use force!
He Lianyi looked at Murong Xiu and Feng Lingxue with murderous eyes. Feng Lingxue had an unruly smile on his face, “Since when did the Emperor of Northern Yue have the ability to let women, women, and children fight? Does this portend the end of the Northern State of Yue? ”
“Right now, your opponents are me and Lan Cang. If you still have anything you want to say, then save it for the next life!”
Mu Rong Xiu and Feng Lingxue were a bit angry when they heard this. They never thought that the Mysterious Wings of the East would be this arrogant. They didn’t even care about the armies of the West Li and the East Ping Kingdom. Wasn’t he afraid that he would die without a complete corpse?
Zi Yuan stood at the top of the city gate tower and looked down at the military situation below. Her gaze followed the Helian Profound Wings without moving away from it for even a moment!
Murong Xiu and Feng Lingxue also held long spears in their hands. Murong Xiu’s opponent was the Helian Profound Wings. But Feng Lingxue’s opponent was Lan Cang!
Helian Xuan Yi was riding a horse, and his brows were tightly knitted. He opened his mouth and said, “Kill!” Then, the army of the Northern Yue and the Helian Profound Wings charged into the sea of people!
The Violet Garden stood on top of the city gate tower and saw everything clearly. This time, Murong Xiu wasn’t dodging like he was before. Instead, he wanted to take the life of even Xuan Yi with just a single move! Helian Profound Wings was naturally not so easy to deal with. Every time Murong Xiu attacked, Helian Profound Wings would block him! However, the obstruction of the Helian Profound Wings was terrifying to look at, because every time he was just a little bit away, the spear in Murong Xiu’s hand would be two inches longer, and that would take Helian Profound Wings’ life!
The iron hooves swept across and the yellow sand filled the sky. The air was filled with the unique scent of the battlefield, mixed with the smell of blood!
“Esteemed Empress, you should return. Below the city is the battlefield. If this corpse were to bleed, I’m afraid it would crash into the little prince …” Xiao Yun stood beside Zi Yuan and said softly.
“The child’s father is currently fighting with the enemy, I want to let him clearly see just how brave his father is. Even if the Emperor were to die, it would be for the sake of the Northern Yue, and the last drop of blood for the people of the Northern Yue! ” Zi Yuan’s speech was very generous, but her heartache was as if a knife had pierced through her heart! She could not fight shoulder-to-shoulder with him, but she could only watch as she died right in front of his eyes!
No! Xuan Yi wouldn’t die! He would not lose to other countries!
A layer of mist covered Violet Garden’s eyes. It was quickly blown away by the wind of the battlefield, and everything became clear again!
She saw that Helian Xuan Yi’s sword was as fast as a meteor, and the long spear in Murong Xiu’s hand was as fast as an arrow! The sword light and the spear shadows made Zi Yuan tremble with fear!
The personal army led by the Emperor must have raised the morale of the soldiers of the Northern Yue! They shared a common enemy, and the weapons in their hands were aimed at the enemy’s chest! His armor was splashed with a gorgeous red, like a blossoming flower! This was the glory of the Northern Yue soldiers. They threw their heads to the ground and shed hot blood for the sake of this country, their families!
The soldiers of the Western Parting and the Eastern Pingguo countries were not a match for the soldiers of the Northern Yue State. Soon, half of the soldiers of the Western Parting and the Eastern Pingguo countries were destroyed!
While Feng Lingxue was fighting with Lan Cang, he took the opportunity to look back at the army behind him and shout at Murong Xiu, “Xiu, there aren’t many soldiers left!”
When Lan Cang saw Feng Lingxue in a daze, he held the sharp sword in his hand and stabbed towards Feng Lingxue’s chest! Feng Lingxue turned around, holding her long spear in front of her chest, “You want to sneak attack me when I’m unprepared, save yourself!”
Feng Lingxue lifted the tip of his spear and stabbed straight into Lan Cang’s chest! Lan Cang grit his teeth in pain and endured. He used his sword to pry apart the spear! This spear wound wasn’t too heavy, but it made Lan Cang’s combat strength much smaller!
