Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

The inn manager’s eyes sparkled. He directly stood up. It had been more than ten days. He finally got clients.

Outside the inn, a woman in black was standing by a luxurious carriage respectfully. She bent down and said, “Your Highness, there is an inn. Shall we stay here for the night?”

The woman in black’s respectful voice contained some affection.

The person in the carriage said, “Okay.” She lifted the curtain gently, exposing her pretty face.

“Your Highness, be careful,” the woman in black said and reached out her hand to help the person get off the carriage.

Duanmu Xi took a glance at the setting sun, her pretty face full of fatigue.

“Let Chief Master get off the carriage.”

“Yes.” Phoenix Five immediately headed towards the carriage behind.

Long Yue immediately led Duanmu Xi into the inn.

The inn manager was directly infatuated with Duanmu Xi. What a handsome gentleman!

Exactly. Currently, Duanmu Xi was dressed as a man. Dressed in a wide white robe, she looked extremely thin. Her black and long hair was tied up with a white jade hairpin only, making her as elegant as a fairy. Her enigmatic purple eyes were as intoxicating and enchanting as the sea of purple flowers.

This was such a pity. Such a banished immortal turned out to be a man. If this were a woman, a lot of men would be smitten with her.

Looking at the manager’s obsessed eyes, Duanmu Xi frowned.

Long Yue immediately pulled a long face and directly stood in front of Duanmu Xi, “Are you the manager of this inn?”

His voice obviously carried an air of disgruntlement.

Hearing the angry voice, the inn manager came to his senses. He realized that his reaction was offensive and immediately replied with a bow, “Yes, I’m the manager of the inn.”

“We need several rooms and some delicate food,” Long Yue said. Then, he took out a blue crystal from his waist and threw it to the inn manager.

The inn manager was stupefied to see the blue crystal. He had never seen a blue crystal before. In the sparsely populated border area, the most common crystals were red ones and orange ones. The blue crystals were quite valuable.

The inn manager was flattered to take the blue crystal and bowed to Duanmu Xi and Long Yue again, “Yes. I’ll get everything ready.” His attitude was somewhat more respectful than before.

At night, somewhere in the yard of the inn, a man in black was tying a note to a pigeon’s leg carefully.

Hearing the footsteps nearby, the man in black acted faster and hurriedly threw the pigeon out.

Suddenly, someone patted the shoulder of the man in black, “What are you doing?”

The man in black was startled and immediately turned around. Seeing Phoenix Fourteen’s sulky face, he waved his hand with a guilty conscience, “No… Nothing.”

Seeing the guilty appearance of the man in black, Phoenix Fourteen narrowed her big eyes threateningly, “Nothing? What are you doing here at midnight? Are you sending information out secretly?”

“No,” the man in black talked back subconsciously with his eyes slightly drooping. He didn’t dare to look at Phoenix Fourteen’s eyes, “Well… Well… It’s late at night now. I’ll go back and sleep now.”

The man in black instantly ran into the inn after saying that.

Two people were standing by the window of the room above the yard. They had seen what the man in black did.

Phoenix Five looked at Duanmu Xi and asked in a low voice, “Your Highness, do you need me to…”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi waved her hand, “No need.”

Phoenix Five was slightly dazed and looked at Duanmu Xi’s pretty side face. He couldn’t help asking, “Your Highness, why did you take him with us?”

Actually, she had long wanted to ask the question. It was fair enough that Her Highness took phoenix guards and dragon guards with her. Their duty was to protect Her Highness but Phoenix Five didn’t understand why Her Highness also took Yu Ying too.

Duanmu Xi looked at the dark sky and finally said after a while, “To reassure him.”

She took Yu Ying away simply to reassure him.

Phoenix Five blinked her eyes and still didn’t understand what Duanmu Xi meant. Yet, she didn’t ask further.

The man in black ran into the room and walked to the table. He lifted the teapot and directly poured the tea into his mouth instead of using the teacup. After drinking a few cups of tea, the man in black lifted his sleeve and wiped the tea off his chin.

He merely sent a message out. Why did he have a guilty conscience? After comforting himself for a while, the man in black looked out of the window and wondered when Xuanyuan Mo would come.

In Prince Zhan’s mansion of Baihu Empire 500 kilometers away from the northwest border.

Xuanyuan Mo stood outside the window and stared at the moon, lost in thought.

“Your Highness,” Yu Feng said outside the door.

Since Yu Ying left, Yu Feng became Xuanyuan Mo’s close secret guard. Lishang acted as the butler again and didn’t have to guard the gate anymore.

Hearing Yu Feng’s voice, Xuanyuan Mo came to his senses and turned to look at the door, “Come in.”

After coming inside, Yu Feng directly passed a note to Xuanyuan Mo, “Your Highness, this is the news from Yu Ying.”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo immediately took the note from Yu Feng’s hand.

Actually, Xuanyuan Mo had sent many secret guards to protect Duanmu Xi in secret since the day Duanmu Xi left. However, the secret guards could only be hidden in the dark so there were many things they didn’t know well. That was why Xuanyuan Mo became so excited to see the note sent by Yu Ying.

After reading the note, Xuanyuan Mo was finally relieved. It was great that she was fine. At the thought of the fact that she was pregnant and had to rush about, he felt a gut-wrenching heartache. He knew that no one could change her mind. Besides, she was to save her third master.

Xuanyuan Mo slightly narrowed his amber eyes, “How is everything doing in the palace?”

Hearing that, Yu Feng immediately bowed and reported, “Your Highness, the Empress is still detained in the Le’an Palace. She is making a scene every day. His Majesty forbids her from meeting anyone, including Eldest Prince. It’s said that Her Highness Consort Hui also has gone there several times but she was stopped outside. And Second Prince also has gone out. It seems that he has gone east.”

East? Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes sparkled. Xuanyuan Hao made Xi go to the Wilderness Holy Region by all means. How could Xuanyuan Hao go east?

Since Xuanyuan Hao dared to have designs on Xi, Xuanyuan Mo must make him pay a big price.

“Tell them to act. I must see the result within three days.” His cold voice was calm.

Yu Feng was slightly dazed to hear that and immediately bowed, “Yes, I’m on it now.”

After saying that, Yu Feng turned to get out of the room.

Xuanyuan Mo turned around and looked at the moon in the sky, his amber eyes full of affection.

“Xi, wait for me!”

At midnight, someone sneaked into Zhou Manyun’s bedding palace.

…

The next noon, on the official road on the southwest border.

Phoenix Five narrowed her eyes to take a look at the sun above her head and asked in a gentle voice outside the carriage, “Your Highness, it’s already noon. Would you like to take a rest and have some dessert?”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi lifted the curtain and took a look at the sun. It was already noon indeed.

“Tell everybody to stop and have a rest then.”

Hearing that, Long Yue stopped the carriage. Phoenix Five reached out her hand to help Duanmu Xi get off the carriage.

Duanmu Xi sat on the grassland and looked at the distant beautiful scenery. She curled her lips happily.

It was autumn now. The autumn air was fresh while the sky was clear and boundless. As the autumn wind blew to her face, she felt quite cool.

Situ Kong not far away saw Duanmu Xi quietly sitting on the grassland, his eyes full of mixed feelings. He didn’t know whether this was right or wrong and what kind of danger they would face in the future. Actually, he was afraid.

He was not afraid of encountering danger himself. Instead, he was frightened that something untoward would happen to her and her babies. However, regardless, he knew that he couldn’t stop her. He was clear about how stubborn his precious disciple was. The only thing he could do was to try his best to protect her and her babies.

“Xi.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi turned around and saw Situ Kong. She smiled at him, “Chief Master.”

Situ Kong walked to Duanmu Xi and also sat down. He took out a jade bottle from his arms and passed it to Duanmu Xi, “I refined some tocolytic elixirs last night.”

Duanmu Xi looked at the jade bottle passed by Situ Kong and an air of warmth crossed her eyes, “Chief Master, I really appreciate that.”

Actually, taking Chief Master with them was to reassure him. Yet, it was a lot better to have Chief Master’s care indeed.

Situ Kong looked at Duanmu Xi’s fatigued face and took her pulse. After finding that nothing was wrong, he put down her wrist.

“We’ve traveled for so long. For your babies, you must eat the tocolytic elixirs I prepared for you on time.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi curled her lips, “Rest assured. I’m eating the elixirs every day.”

Situ Kong nodded and wanted to say something more. Suddenly, she saw Phoenix Five walk toward them with a hamper.

“Your Highness, Elder Situ, have some pastries,” Phoenix Five said while taking the pastries out of the hamper.

Seeing the pastries taken out by Phoenix Five, Situ Kong laughed, “You’ve brought exactly what I want. I felt hungry just now. Now, I can have some pastries.”

Then, Situ Kong took a dish and started eating.

Phoenix Five put a dish of pastries in front of Duanmu Xi, “Here you are, Your Highness.”

Duanmu Xi took a pastry and took a nibble. It didn’t taste as good as what she had before but it was still better than the solid food.

Duanmu Xi stroked her belly and cracked an amiable smile. Just as well she had the tocolytic elixirs made by Chief Master. Otherwise, she would be ill-nourished as she ate the pastries as her meals every day.

“Your Highness, it’s the border of the Wilderness Holy Region in front. We’ll enter the Wilderness Holy Region soon,” Phoenix Five pointed at the jungle in the distance and said with excitement.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi took a look at the green and luxuriant jungle. Her dark purple eyes glistened. What was waiting for them ahead?
