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

In Gukou Town, a town at the border of Shangqi Forest and the Zhuque Empire.

Watching the people in the street, Duanmu Xi frowned.

The people in this place wore so few clothes.

Xuanyuan Mo never looked aside all the way here. Despite that, his handsome look still aroused the attention of many women.

They walked for a distance and entered a tailor’s shop.

As they entered the shop, the manager hastened to go forward and greet them.

“Dear customers, this way, please.”

“Are you from abroad?”

The manager talked to them hospitably while pouring tea for them.

“I would like two suits of white clothes for me and two suits of thin and black clothes for him. Better in a conservative style.”

The manager was speechless and felt disgruntled.

Young as this girl was, she was quite crafty.

Xuanyuan Mo blushed.

Coming out of the tailor’s shop, Xuanyuan Mo was still smiling faintly.

In the corner nearby, two women in black were inquiring about something.

Suddenly, one of the women in black seemed to see something and hurriedly elbowed her companion.

“Phoenix Fourteen, look at the woman in white over there.”

Phoenix Fourteen looked in the direction where Phoenix Thirteen was staring and then gripped her wrist in surprise.

“Is that Her Highness the Crown Princess?”

“You also think that she is Her Highness the Crown Princess, right? Keep an eye on her. Don’t lose her. I’ll fire a flare to inform Phoenix Five right away.”

“Okay. Okay.”

Phoenix Thirteen took out a flare from her waist and lit it up. Instantly, a beam of cyan light was shot to the sky.

Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Mo walking behind Duanmu Xi seemed to feel something. He looked back and yet found nothing.

A moment later, Phoenix Five appeared before Phoenix Thirteen and Phoenix Fourteen, “Phoenix Thirteen, Phoenix Fourteen, do you have any news about the Crown Princess?”

“Five, look over there.” Phoenix Thirteen dragged Phoenix Five with excitement.

“Her Highness. It is Her Highness for real. This is so great. This is so great…” When Phoenix Five saw the familiar face, her eyes just glistened with thrill.

Yet, Phoenix Five quickly calmed down from her emotional thrill.

“I must escort Her Highness back to the capital. Phoenix Thirteen, you go back to the capital and report this to the empress and the royal consort.”

“Okay, I’ll on it.”

“Phoenix Fourteen, call on other guards now and let them protect Her Highness in secret. Don’t let Her Highness’s identity exposed.”

“Okay.”

In the evening, Duanmu Xi and Xuanyuan Mo entered an inn.

“Two top-class rooms.”

Duanmu Xi took out an orange crystal and put it on the counter of the inn.

“Okay!”

“One is enough.”

The inn manager was about to ask the waiter to show them upstairs when he was stopped by a voice.

The inn manager stared at Xuanyuan Mo in astonishment.

This man demanded staying in the same room with the woman! Yet, he did look rather handsome!

Duanmu Xi looked at Xuanyuan Mo’s pure eyes, her eyes glittering.

He didn’t seem to realize how astonishing his words were. Since he didn’t care, why would she care?

“A top-class room.”

Duanmu Xi looked back and saw the inn manager’s obsessed eyes. She put on a serious look and then said coldly in an angry voice.

The inn manager couldn’t help shivering inwardly when he heard the cold voice. Instantly, he came to his senses and said with a trembling voice, “Okay. Bring the two clients to the second floor.”

“Please follow me upstairs!”

In the room of the inn.

“Did you notice that too?”

Duanmu Xi poured a cup of tea for Xuanyuan Mo and passed it to him.

“You are saying we have been stalked?”

Xuanyuan Mo took the teacup and had a sip.

Duanmu Xi nodded and knitted her brows.

Who was that? Was it sent by Duanmu Qing?

“No worry. I will protect you.”

Xuanyuan Mo gazed at Duanmu Xi with a serious look.

Duanmu Xi felt touched, her pretty purple eyes beaming with smiles.

“That’s why you want to stay in the same room with me?”

Xuanyuan Mo puckered his lips nervously.

“If you mind it, I can…”

“You should be the one who minds it. I’ll ask the waiter to bring the hot water for you to take a bath.”

Her words just made Xuanyuan Mo flush all over. He forgot that they were in the Zhuque Empire. His face was still red even when the waiter brought him the hot water.

At night, Xuanyuan Mo slept on the ground with a red face, recollecting the shadow of Duanmu Xi taking a bath on the screen.

This place where the positions of men and women were reversed was driving him nuts.

“Snow.”

Duanmu Xi directly moved to the edge of the bed and looked at Xuanyuan Mo.

“Yeah?”

Xuanyuan Mo looked up at her. The two of them stared into each other’s eyes for a long time. For the moment, neither of them said anything.

A dark figure suddenly appeared in the room, which made Duanmu Xi directly throw herself into Xuanyuan Mo’s arms out of astonishment.

Xuanyuan Mo immediately held Duanmu Xi and rose swiftly.

“Who is that?”

His clear shout appeared rather abrupt at the quiet late night.

“Your Highness.”

The person in black suddenly knelt before Duanmu Xi.

“Who are you?” Duanmu Xi furrowed her eyebrows and looked vigilant.

The person in black pulled down the veil and bowed, “I’m Phoenix Five, looking for Your Highness under Her Majesty’s order.”

“Do you have any token?”

Duanmu Xi looked at Phoenix Five coldly and stared at the latter’s facial expression attentively.

A token?

Phoenix Five looked at Duanmu Xi in astonishment. What happened? It seemed that Her Highness didn’t know her anymore.

Phoenix Five glimpsed Xuanyuan Mo and dithered over whether to show the phoenix token.

“He is my man. No need to avoid him.”

Duanmu Xi seemed to see through Phoenix Five’s concern so she said coldly.

Xuanyuan Mo’s handsome face blushed again and he also felt happy.

Phoenix Five was quite astounded.

Her Highness had a lover? Yet, this young man was really good-looking indeed, who was comparable to His Highness the Royal Consort.

Having noticed Phoenix Five was sizing Xuanyuan Mo up, Duanmu Xi slightly stood before him though she was not tall enough to block Xuanyuan Mo.

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s action, Phoenix Five puckered her lips inwardly.

Her Highness was so…

She and Her Majesty were so much alike in this aspect. They were both masterful and possessive.

Phoenix Five took a golden phoenix-shaped token from her arms and passed it to Duanmu Xi. The back of the token was carved with a word–Five.

“This is the exclusive token of the Phoenix Guard Squad. Your Highness, please take a look.”

Duanmu Xi only cast a cold glance without taking the token.

“Get up. I believe your words.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

Phoenix Five rose and put the token back into her arms.

“Is my mother okay?”

Duanmu Xi turned around to look out of the window and said.

Phoenix Five was slightly dazed and then lowered her head with clasped hands.

“Her Majesty was sick out of worry about your safety and now, she becomes much better. If Her Majesty knows you’ve come back safe and sound, she will be healed without taking any medicine.”

Duanmu Xi frowned. So, her mother was really sick? It was the same as her dream.

“Make arrangements for me to go back to the capital as soon as possible.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”
