Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King - Chapter 200
Feeling that the earth was shaking heavily, Xuanyuan Mo was a bit surprised. He found the scene familiar to him. He could vaguely recall that the earth also had shaken like this when someone appeared. Before he could overthink it, Xuanyuan Mo directly carried Duanmu Xi and flew into the air.
The earth shook for a while and finally stopped. A white tiger suddenly appeared in front of them.
After seeing the white tiger show up, Xuanyuan Mo carried Duanmu Xi and landed on the ground.
The white tiger saw Xuanyuan Mo and its transparent blue eyes flickered. It frowned subtly. It had a strong sense of deja vu. Its sixth sense told it that this man was dangerous.
“Who are you?” A cold male voice sounded in the ears of Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi.
Hearing that, Duanmu Xi blinked her eyes. It was a beautiful male voice.
Xuanyuan Mo ignored the white tiger and turned to look at Duanmu Xi, “Xi, do you like the white tiger? You can have it if you like it.” The white tiger was the reason why he was willing to preside over this year’s sacrificial ceremony.
Duanmu Xi nodded. She liked all the white things, especially this kind of white animal. Back then, Snow was in the form of a pure snow-white wolf. Now, she also fancied this white tiger that was white all over.
The white tiger’s mouth twitched and its eyes flickered. Xuanyuan Mo was so wild. This man was a member of the Xuanyuan Family. It might consider contracting with him but the woman next to him was neither a member of the Xuanyuan Family nor as competent as that woman. It wouldn’t contract with her.
Seeing the white tiger’s disdainful eyes, Duanmu Xi frowned with disgruntlement. Why was it staring at her like that? She shouldn’t have liked it. Xuanyuan Mo directly released his power of the beast god.
The white tiger was suppressed by the strong power of the beast god to kneel. Feeling the familiar power of the beast god, the white tiger was astonished. The man was releasing the power of the beast god. In this case, he was the beast god.
Against the pressure, the white tiger bowed to Xuanyuan Mo respectfully, “Greetings, Lord Beast God.”
Xuanyuan Mo didn’t even glimpse the white tiger and only stared at Duanmu Xi, “Xi, do you want it? If you don’t, let’s get out of here.”
The white tiger was shocked to hear that. It stared at Duanmu Xi nervously for fear that she would say no.
“Yes.” Duanmu Xi arched her eyebrows and said with certainty, “Of course I do.” It was normal that the mythical creature was proud. It wouldn’t be normal if it wasn’t.
Xuanyuan Mo arched his eyebrow and turned to say to the white tiger kneeling on the ground, “Greet your mistress then.”
The white tiger immediately turned to Duanmu Xi and prostrated itself, “Greetings, Mistress.”
“Xi, contract with it now.” This place was cold. He was not afraid of coldness but he was worried that his wife would get sick from the coldness and that the babies might be affected.
Duanmu Xi looked at the white tiger in front and suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at Xuanyuan Mo and said with a frown, “Snow, to contract with the mythical creature, one must be of the blood of its guarding family but I don’t have the blood of the Xuanyuan Family.”
She remembered when she contracted with Hongling and Qingfeng, she was told that she must have the blood of the Duanmu Family and the Huangfu Family. As to the black tortoise, there wouldn’t be any problem as long as she wanted to contract with it. Her mother’s father was a member of the imperial family of Xuanwu, making her a member of the Xiahou Family too. However, she was really not a member of the Xuanyuan Family. If she was, she couldn’t be with Snow then.
Xuanyuan Mo slightly curled his lips and held Duanmu Xi into his arms again. He stroked her belly, “Of course you have the blood of the Xuanyuan Family.”
The white tiger looked at Duanmu Xi’s belly and its eyes flickered.
Duanmu Xi was slightly dazed. She understood what Snow meant but could it work?
Seeing Duanmu Xi’s stupefied expression, Xuanyuan Mo smiled more happily and whispered to her ears, “Xi, just give it a shot.”
Duanmu Xi glanced at Xuanyuan Mo. Could he read her mind? He just took the words out of her mouth. Yet, he was right. Whether it could work or not, she should just give it a shot.
Duanmu Xi got a drip of her heart’s blood and dripped it on the middle of the white tiger’s brows.
The life contract was successfully made.
Duanmu Xi was happy. She made it. She stroked her belly with affection. She really didn’t expect that her babies could help her contract with the white tiger.
Seeing the motherly glow on Duanmu Xi’s face, Xuanyuan Mo was infatuated. Regardless of the white tiger, he clutched Duanmu Xi to his arms and kissed her.
The white tiger saw Xuanyuan Mo immersed in making out with Duanmu Xi and got into her mental space sensibly.
Xuanyuan Mo stopped after kissing her for a while. He didn’t want to make his wife sick for his impromptu kiss.
“Let’s get out of here.” Xuanyuan Mo directly got out of the space with his arm around Duanmu Xi’s waist.
After they left, the white snow in the space slowly melted and the space changed quickly.
Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi were stopped by a group of guards as soon as they got out of the Huxiao Hall.
Xuanyuan Mo took a cold glance at the guards. The guards immediately couldn’t help making way for them.
Duanmu Xi looked at the old people standing in front and slightly knitted her eyebrows. These old people must be the elders of the Xuanyuan Family. It seemed that they came with an ulterior motive.
As expected, while Duanmu Xi was thinking, an old man in green went forward and glared at Xuanyuan Mo, “Prince Zhan, you’re so bold. How dare you let your wife enter the Huxiao Hall?”
Xuanyuan Mo looked at these old guys, his amber eyes becoming obscure. If it hadn’t been for these old guys, how could his mother have died miserably? He didn’t get even with them but they just came to him instead.
“Why can’t my wife go in there?” His piercingly cold voice carried the absolute majesty.
“You…” The old man in green faltered. He pointed at Xuanyuan Mo and couldn’t utter a word.
Seeing the old man in green’s finger, Xuanyuan Mo looked fierce and directly waved his sleeve. The old man’s finger was cut instantly. Coincidentally, Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi both hated being pointed fingers at.
“Argh…” The old man in green covered his bleeding finger and screamed in pain.
The other elders were somewhat frightened to see Xuanyuan Mo’s action. Some of them, who were on good terms with that old man in green all glared at Xuanyuan Mo when they saw Xuanyuan Mo cut off his finger.
Chief Elder stared at Xuanyuan Mo with a frown. Prince Zhan’s cultivation was unfathomably high. Third Elder had acted too recklessly this time.
While Xuanyuan Mo wanted to leave with Duanmu Xi, Xuanyuan Lie arrived in a hurry.
Duanmu Xi saw Xuanyuan Lie and slightly curtsied to him, “Father.”
Upon seeing Duanmu Xi, Xuanyuan Lie immediately said in a soft voice, “Xi, are you alright? Did they freak you out?”
Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Lie looked at Duanmu Xi’s belly.
Duanmu Xi smiled and shook her head but she didn’t speak.
Xuanyuan Lie learned that Duanmu Xi was alright and then turned to glare at the old people, shouting angrily, “What are you doing?”
These old guys dared to intimidate his pregnant daughter-in-law. They were risking their necks.
Chief Elder was a bit taken aback to see Xuanyuan Lie stare at them with an angry expression. He knew that His Majesty was mad at them for Xuanyuan Mo’s mother’s death. Therefore, for so many years, they also tried to reduce their presence. Generally, they wouldn’t appear in the imperial palace if nothing serious happened. However, this time, it was about the Xuanyuan Family’s rules, so they had to intervene.
Chief Elder went forward and looked at Xuanyuan Lie, “We learn that Prince Zhan took his wife into the Huxiao Hall so we’re here to take a look.”
Xuanyuan Lie subconsciously frowned. Mo had taken Xi into the Huxiao Hall. And it had been known by these old guys. Now, they were in big trouble indeed.
“Your Majesty, you should know about the Xuanyuan Family’s rules. The people without the blood of the Xuanyuan Family are not allowed into the Huxiao Hall. Whoever disobeys the rule shall be beheaded,” Chief Elder said and looked at Duanmu Xi aside.
Duanmu Xi was not afraid. She smiled faintly. They were not capable enough to hurt her at all.
Seeing the faint smile on Duanmu Xi’s face, Chief Elder could hardly retain his composure. At the thought of Duanmu Xi’s identity, he started to hesitate.
Xuanyuan Lie heard what Chief Elder said, his dark eyes seething with anger. He snorted, “Aren’t you afraid that the Zhuque Empire and the Qinglong Empire will eradicate our empire if you dare to hurt Mo’s wife? If our empire is destroyed, you are just like sh*t!”
Xuanyuan Lie couldn’t help swearing directly. He had tolerated these old guys for a while. They had got Yan killed. Now they wanted to hurt Mo’s wife and his precious grandchildren. Whether Mo’s wife had entered the Huxiao Hall, he wouldn’t let them lay a finger on her.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Lie defended Duanmu Xi so much, Xuanyuan Mo showed a smile in his amber eyes. He had got his memory of his last life back so he didn’t care about his current father as much as before. Now as it appeared, it might be nice to have such a father.
Chief Elder heard that and hesitated. He knew that Xuanyuan Lie was right. They couldn’t hurt Princess Consort Zhan indeed but…
“Your Majesty, since Princess Consort Zhan has violated the clan rule, as the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Family, you can’t brush this matter aside. Please give us an explanation.”
Xuanyuan Lie slightly narrowed his eyes. This old guy exerted pressure on him again.
“Who said my wife didn’t have the Xuanyuan Family’s blood?”
It was still that cold and arrogant voice.
Everyone looked at Xuanyuan Mo. Even Xuanyuan Lie also looked at Xuanyuan Mo in confusion. What did Xuanyuan Mo mean? Was Xi also a member of the Xuanyuan Family?
At the thought of that, Xuanyuan Lie was shocked. He stared at Duanmu Xi’s belly and murmured inwardly, “Oh no! This is really bad!”
Xuanyuan Mo saw Xuanyuan Lie’s weird eyes and his mouth twitched. What was wrong with this old man?
Duanmu Xi also felt uncomfortable about being gazed at by Xuanyuan Lie. She subconsciously leaned against Xuanyuan Mo.
Xuanyuan Mo clutched Duanmu Xi into his arms and stroked her belly. He looked at Xuanyuan Lie and arched his eyebrow, “Aren’t the babies in my wife’s belly members of the Xuanyuan Family?”
Xuanyuan Lie took a tumble at once. It turned out that this was what Mo meant. Why hadn’t he thought of it before? He was so stupid.
Xuanyuan Lie turned to look at the elders taken aback in situ, saying in a cold voice, “You’ve heard what Mo said. Mo’s wife is pregnant. The babies are authentic members of the Xuanyuan Family. Now, isn’t it justifiable that Mo’s wife entered the Huxiao Hall?”
Chief Elder was slack-jawed. He looked at Duanmu Xi’s belly with a frown and fell into deep thought.
Staring at Chief Elder, Xuanyuan Lie sneered, “What? Do you still want to behead Mo’s wife?”
Chief Elder immediately came to his senses and took a glance at Duanmu Xi. He said to Xuanyuan Lie with clasped hands, “Since Princess Consort Zhan is carrying the Xuanyuan Family’s babies, she didn’t violate the clan rule then. We were wrong. Yet, we are doing this to defend the clan rules of the Xuanyuan Family. Please forgive us.”
Hearing what Chief Elder said, the elders looked at Chief Elder in shock. They didn’t expect that Chief Elder would let go of Princess Consort Zhan so easily.
Xuanyuan Lie snorted at Chief Elder. This old man was sensible indeed. With a flick of his sleeve, he took Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi away from the Huxiao Hall.
After Xuanyuan Lie went away, an old man in grey behind Chief Elder went forward and said in a low voice, “Do we just let Princess Consort Zhan leave like that?”
Chief Elder cracked a bitter smile, “What else can we do? She’s not only backed by His Majesty and Prince Zhan but also has the support of the Zhuque Empire and the Qinglong Empire. What can we do to her?”
The old man in grey also held his breath and said nothing more.
