Incarnation Of Gods: Endless War - Chapter 227

Third-person POV

“Hmm~ Hmm~ Hmm~” Murong Qing hummed while skipping her way to Royal Palace.

It had been 3 days since Hong er’s eyes were transplanted into her eye sockets. She gained some of Hong er’s most treasured memories from the transplantation and one of them was the song that Hong er always hum.

She diligently learned the song based on the little memories that she got, it seems like Weisheng was very happy whenever Hong er sung the song. But then she clenched her jaw in annoyance.

“Only I can make cousin brother happy. How dare that witch to snatch my rightful place!” Murong Qing pouted her lips.

But a second later, a wide smile spread out on her face.

“No worries! Because cousin brother and Qing Qing are madly in love with each other, we are inseparable!” Murong Qing said and spun around as her flowy skirt waved in the air.

(A/N: Qing Qing is her nickname. I didn’t put ‘er’ behind the ‘Qing’ because you guys would be confused with Bai Huiqing’s nickname.)

In Murong Qing’s mind, she thought that Weisheng and her were in love with each other. She believed that Hong er is a witch that godsend them to test their love. And with her witch power, she cast a spell on Weisheng so he would fall in love with her and forget everything about Murong Qing.

Murong Qing assumed that if she always stayed by Weisheng’s side, no one could get close to her cousin brother.

“But that damn witch strike when I’m not with cousin brother,” Murong Qing grunted irritably.

The reason Murong Qing started to call him cousin brother because, in their era, it is fine to marry a distant relative. Therefore by calling him “cousin brother” there would create a special relationship between them and they would look closer if she called him by that nickname.

At first, Weisheng was very annoyed by Murong Qing’s clueless act. Calling a royal family member “cousin brother” when they didn’t relate in any way is taboo. But Murong Qing is very persistent even after she was scolded several times by Lu Cixi and the others.

Then Weisheng ignored and avoided her as much as possible but her will was so strong, she even dared to threaten an imperial guard by accusing him of attempting to r.a.p.e her if he touches her.

It caused a headache to the imperial guards that were looking over Weisheng. Imperial guards were also a noble therefore it would be scandalous if Murong Qing spread such a ridiculous rumor.

Because of that, almost all of the guards in the Royal Palace despise Murong Qing. Her noble status is lower than most of the imperial guards in the Royal Palace but her arrogance is more astounding compared to them.

Her obsessive tendency made Weisheng utterly disgusted, he escaped from Murong Qing by training in secret with other elite forces fellow. Then he started to carry out various missions with Lu Ping closely followed him by his side.

Weisheng almost developed a phobia towards woman but thankfully, in that very mission, he met Hong er who melted his heart at the first sight. But knowing that by taking her with the current powerless him, she would definitely become a target for his uncle.

He went to call Xu Tingfeng who was the closest to Hong er and never expected that Hong er turned out to be Xu Tingfeng long lost daughter. He was very relieved to know that Hong er was in a reliable hand. He promised to himself that he would marry Hong er when everything on his side is safe.

“The witch is gone~ And the spell she puts on cousin brother also had broken. Cousin brother likes unique things, ehehehe~ I hope he likes my new eyes.” Murong Qing giggled and twisted her body side to side as if she was shy.

Murong Qing’s family is originally from commoner lineage and they never did a meritorious deed to the world before that deserve the blessing from the god. Therefore, by transplanting one of the most unique eyes, she hoped Weisheng would like her more than before.

Not long after, she arrived at the main gate of the Royal Palace and the guards that were guarding the gate blocked her path with their spears.

They glared at her and spoke with a stern voice, “Identify yourself!”

Murong Qing was way shorter than them and with her head lowered, they couldn’t see her face clearly. Because of the previous accident where Bei Zhou attacked the Royal Palace, they became more cautious of anyone that approaches the Royal Palace.

But they felt familiar with the figure of the woman in front of them. Murong Qing lifted up her head and smiled brightly with her eyes narrowed into a line.

“Aiya~ How can servants forget their future empress?” Murong Qing grinned.

Then the muscle on her face relaxed, revealing the familiar golden eyes. A shiver ran down their spines, they glanced at each other before they nodded their head as if they knew what they were thinking.

Seeing that the guards didn’t respond to her, she pursed her lips into a pout and rested her chin on her palm.

“Do you really forget my face? Maybe I have gone for too long, you servants must miss me. This will prove my identity.” Murong Qing pulled out a white jade badge from her sleeve.

The eyes of the guards that were passing by the gate immediately went wide when they saw the jade in Murong Qing’s hand. The white jade badge with a phoenix carved on it could only be owned by the Empress and for now, it was supposed to be in Hong er’s hand. However currently, Murong Qing was holding it up confidently.

Just when the other guards were about to charge on Murong Qing to arrest her, the guards that blocked Murong Qing’s path stopped them by waving their hand behind their back so Murong Qing wouldn’t notice.

The other guards instantly understood their friend’s signal, they lowered their weapon and acted like they didn’t see anything but their eyes were still glued on Murong Qing’s every movement.

A friendly smile appeared on their faces as they bowed to Murong Qing.

“Our apologies for not recognizing you, Miss Murong. How about this servant guides you to meet His Majesty Emperor?” the guards politely spoke to Murong Qing.

Murong Qing smiled in satisfactory, she waved her hand and walked ahead of them.

“Hhmm~ It is fine. Seeing that you realized your mistake pretty quick, I forgive you because I am very big-hearted. Remember that.” Murong Qing stopped and glanced at them.

“Yes, of course, we will remember your gracefulness.” The guards continued with their act.

The smile on Murong Qing’s face got wider.

“Now, take me to cousin brother~” Murong Qing impatiently said.

Murong Qing left with the two guards accompanied her. Without a word, the other guards take over their friends’ jobs standing in front of the gate.

While Murong Qing was on her way to Weisheng location, the servants that were passing by widened their eyes in shock. But before they could utter a word, they saw the two guards behind her signaled them by placing their finger on their lips.

They nodded their heads in understanding, they went over and bowed their head to Murong Qing. Murong Qing’s mood became better and better as the servants showed her more respect than the previous time she visited Weisheng.

‘Never thought that that witch put a spell on the servants too so she would be acknowledged as their empress. But don’t worry, Qing Qing has saved all of you from that witch’s witchcraft.’ Murong Qing proudly puffed her chest out.

Murong Qing glanced at the grandiose tower that was quite far from her. she pointed at the tower and asked the guard beside her.

“What is that?” Murong Qing questioned.

The guards glanced at the tower that Murong Qing was pointing at.

“It is a library tower that His Majesty Emperor specially built for Her Majesty Empress. And it is located at Fei Hong Palace where Her Majesty Empress resided in.” the guards replied with a smile as they recalled Hong er’s magnanimous smile.

“Destroy it,” Murong Qing said in a deadpan tone.
