Xia Muqing chuckled. Did they really think she was a fool?

“Sure, I’ll joke with all of you too.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a group of phoenixes suddenly appeared in the air above the royal palace. Flames spewed out of their mouths. Amongst the phoenixes was the little phoenix who tried its best to burn the place down. Its eyes were filled with fury. If anyone dared to bully Xia Muqing, she would take it as if they were bullying the phoenixes.

The people of the Jin Country were shocked by such a huge commotion. They looked at the palace wrapped in flames and assumed that God was punishing them. They fell to their knees in fear.

You Lanchen and the rest didn’t expect that there would be a day when they would be burnt. They had killed so many Holy Ladies and innocent girls. Today, it was their turn to suffer retribution.

A ball of fire accidentally burned You Lanchen’s face. With a scream, the smooth skin on his body slowly peeled off, turning into dry and wrinkled skin covered with age spots. His bright eyes also became murky in an instant.

This was his true appearance, an old monster who had lived for countless years.

The surrounding ministers reacted the same way. They regained their original looks and the entire palace was engulfed in a sea of fire.

Seeing that there was nothing else for her to do, Xia Muqing asked the black eagle to bring her out of the palace. When she arrived at the city gates, she saw a group of soldiers guarding the entrance. The leader was Ye Qingxuan, whom she had not seen for three years.

Xia Muqing smiled at him. After the black eagle lowered its body, she leaped off lightly and ran into his arms.

A year ago, she had already contacted them, all for the sake of capturing all of them today.

A man stood afar with a swarm of insects behind him. Mu Si looked at Xia Muqing’s face and his eyes were filled with nostalgia. If he hadn’t done that back then, would she still be by his side? He would have a daughter who would call him Father.

He turned around sadly and took one last look at Ye Qingxuan. He muttered quietly, “Lad, if you dare to bully my daughter, I will release the Gu worms to bite you to death.”

Xia Muqing seemed to have sensed something and glanced in his direction. Ye Qingxuan asked, “Aren’t you going to see him?”

Back then, You Lanchen was right. If she left Jin country, the poison in Ye Qingxuan’s body would instantly take his life. However, he didn’t expect Mu Si to be her biological father.

“He knows?” Although it was a question, Xia Muqing was very certain.

Ye Qingxuan nodded.

Xia Muqing looked at the man and said, “Forget it. I don’t understand the grudges of the previous generation and I don’t want anything to do with it.”

The two of them were talking quietly when You Lanchen, who was covered in flames, rushed out from behind and charged straight at Xia Muqing.

“Be careful!” Someone exclaimed.

Ye Qingxuan hugged her and turned around, wanting to shield her from the flames.

The other figure who rushed out struck the burning man even more swiftly. He fell to the ground and the phoenix flames instantly ignited him.

“Jiang Yifan!”

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!”

Xia Muqing kicked You Lanchen away. After realizing who it was, she screamed.

With the flames swallowing him, Jiang Yifan said weakly, “Sister, I’m sorry. Ye Qingxuan. I don’t owe you anymore.”

The little phoenix had also rushed over. Looking at Jiang Yifan who was on fire, it shrieked in terror. She could only create fire, and she had no way of extinguishing it.

Jiang Yifan fell to the ground. The little phoenix braced itself and charged into the circle of fire. Its feathers naturally blocked out flames, but it was too small. It could only protect a small part of his body.

Moreover, as time passed, even a phoenix would be burned.

With another sharp cry, a huge phoenix threw both of them onto its back and soared into the sky with them, flying towards the distant sea. Only the water there could extinguish the phoenix’s fire.

Xia Muqing wanted to chase after them, but they couldn’t catch up with the phoenix at all.

Ye Qingxuan pulled her into his arms. “Don’t worry, he will be fine.”

The two of them returned to their country. Jin country was completely destroyed and the people sent by Ye Qingxuan took over the reins. The country had already recognized Ye Qingxuan as their new emperor over the past three years. After knowing that Jiang Yifan was fine, Xia Muqing accepted Ye Qingxuan’s proposal.

Ye Qingxuan was so happy that he announced his wedding and pasted notices all over the capital city, letting everyone know that he had an empress.

…

The new emperor and the empress’s coronation were held on the same day. The country welcomed an unprecedented sight. All kinds of ferocious beasts that could only be seen in the depths of the forest gathered to congratulate the new empress, Xia Muqing.

At the coronation ceremony, the new emperor made a high-profile announcement that he would abolish the rest of the palaces and get rid of the harem. He would only dote on the empress alone. Furthermore, for the rest of his life, he had really kept his vow. He only doted on one person and only loved her.

From then on, the two of them became a legend that spread far and wide.
