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

In the Wilderness Holy Hall.

Duanmu Xi glared at the maid disgruntledly, “Go away.” Her cold voice was fierce.

The maid looked down and didn’t mean to go away at all, “Miss, it’s Region Master’s order that you can’t go out.” She tried to talk politely but her tone didn’t sound respectful at all.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi slightly narrowed her eyes, “I wanna meet your Region Master.” What did that person mean? Did he want to put her under house arrest?

The maid cracked an ironic smile and looked at Duanmu Xi, saying, “If our Region Master wants to meet you, he will come here. You’d better stay here and wait patiently!”

“How dare you!” Duanmu Xi directly flew into a rage and struck a palm at the maid’s chest.

“Bang…” The maid didn’t expect that Duanmu Xi would beat her all of a sudden. She was sent flying away and fell to the ground. Red blood dripped down the corner of her lips.

“You…” The maid covered her chest and gazed at Duanmu Xi with a malicious face. This woman from one of the four empires dared to hit her. No one dared to be rude to her in the Wilderness Holy Hall. Even the Region Master’s concubines had to be polite to her. She was the Region Master’s close maid and the first woman he had slept with.

The maid got up from the ground and wiped the blood off her lips with her sleeve. She looked at Duanmu Xi coldly, pulled the soft sword off her waist and stabbed at Duanmu Xi.

Staring at the maid rushing to her, Duanmu Xi put on a fierce look.

When the maid’s sword was about to stab Duanmu Xi in the chest, a figure suddenly showed up in front of Duanmu Xi and pinched the maid’s soft sword with both fingers.

Upon seeing the man, the maid had her heart in her throat and said with a horrified look, “Region… Region Master…”

The figure’s eyes flashed with a malicious glimmer. Even he didn’t bear to hurt her a bit. This damned woman dared attempt to stab Duanmu Xi. She deserved to die for this!

“How dare you be so rude to my distinguished guest! Since you wanna die, I’ll let you die then!”

His voice was so gloomy as if it came from hell, making the maid subconsciously shiver, “Region Master, mercy…”

The maid stopped talking abruptly. There was a bloody hole in her slim neck, from which blood gushed out. With her eyes wide open, the maid stared at the soft sword in her hand and slowly fell back. Even when she died, she didn’t dare to believe that the man she had loved for more than ten years would kill her like this.

Duanmu Xi looked in shock at the dead maid who was lying on the ground with her eyes wide open.

The Region Master turned his head and stared at Duanmu Xi’s cold face and said softly, “Are you all right? I failed to discipline my maid well. I’m sorry my maid has startled you.”

Duanmu Xi rolled her eyes inwardly and said in an ironic tone, “I’m not scared. She was merely a clown.”

The Region Master’s face under the mask stiffened. He said with a smile, “I was wrong. Given your cultivation and courage, I can’t compare you with ordinary women!”

Duanmu Xi glimpsed the Region Master dismissively and said coldly, “Do you forget why I followed you here?”

The Region Master’s eyes flicked. He cracked a sinister smile, “You mean Mei Luo?”

Upon hearing him mention Mei Luo, Duanmu Xi got angry and said bluntly, “I want to meet my master.”

The Region Master didn’t respond to Duanmu Xi’s words but said, “Do you know your third master’s true identity? She’s not Mei Luo.”

Duanmu Xi’s eyes slightly flicked. She looked at the Region Master and said coldly, “I don’t need you to tell me about my third master’s identity. I don’t want to hear you talk any nonsense. All I want is to meet my third master.” She had long known her third master’s name should be fake. She was curious about her third master’s identity but it didn’t mean that she wanted to learn about her third master’s identity from this man. She wanted to hear it from her third master.

Hearing Duanmu Xi’s cold words, the Region Master said sulkily, “Crown Princess of Zhuque, rest assured. Your third master is fine now. She’ll meet you alive.”

Duanmu Xi suddenly knitted her brows, “What do you mean?”

Upon hearing that, the Region Master smiled sinisterly, “Nothing. As long as you can make me happy, I’ll take you to meet your third master.” Then, he tried to stroke Duanmu Xi’s face.

Duanmu Xi willed her mind and instantly, a dagger appeared in her hand. When the Region Master’s hand was about to reach Duanmu Xi’s face, she put her dagger on his neck, “If you wanna die, just go on.” Meanwhile, Duanmu Xi moved her dagger forward. At once, a bloody trace was left on the Region Master’s neck.

Feeling the pain in his neck, the Region Master flashed to dodge Duanmu Xi’s dagger. He touched his neck injury and looked at Duanmu Xi, saying with a smile, “You’re such a wild cat! But I like you!” After saying that, the Region Master licked his finger.

Duanmu Xi was disgusted by the Region Master’s disgusting action, “I’m gonna say this for the last time. I want to meet my master.” She really didn’t want to spend any time with this pervert who covered his face.

The Region Master cracked a sinister smile, “Sure. As long as you promise me two things, I’ll take you to meet Mei Luo.”

In Green Pine Inn.

Everyone gathered in Situ Kong’s room.

“How is it going? Any result of the investigation?” Situ Kong looked at Yu Ying and Fourteen.

Yu Ying and Phoenix Fourteen exchanged glances and said with a frown, “We learn that the people in the Wilderness Holy Region worship Celestial Maiden. In memory of the Celestial Maiden, they elected a sacred maiden as their leader. The sacred maiden is equal to the emperor of an empire.”

Situ Kong nodded. What Yu Ying said was more or less the same as what Mei Luo said. It seemed that Mei Luo must have something to do with the Wilderness Holy Region.

“The sacred maiden is equal to the monarch?” Phoenix Five frowned and said in confusion, “Why is it different from what we learned?”

All the others just looked at Phoenix Five.

Situ Kong took a look at Phoenix Five and turned to Long Yue, “Tell us more.”

Long Yue said with a stern face, “We learn that the leader of the Wilderness Holy Region is the Region Master. He lives in the Wilderness Holy Hall, west of the holy city. It’s said that his martial arts skills are superb and he always wears a mask. No one has seen his true face.”

Situ Kong frowned abruptly. Why did they acquire different information?

Seeing that everyone was confused with a frown, Yu Ying explained, “Here is the thing. In order to monitor the sacred maiden’s behaviors, the Council of Elders set up the position of region master. In the Wilderness Holy Region, the Region Master is only second to the sacred maiden. Long Yue is right. Now, the Region Master is the top leader of the Wilderness Holy Region. The sacred maiden has been gone since 30 years ago. No one knows where she has gone. The current Region Master didn’t acquire the position until ten years ago. He’s quite scheming. He seized the power of the whole Wilderness Holy Region and made everyone sired to him within ten years.”

As Situ Kong heard the sacred maiden was lost 30 years ago, he immediately thought of the fact that Mei Luo seemed to arrive at Shengjin Academy 30 years ago too. Could Mei Luo be the sacred maiden of the Wilderness Holy Region?

Hearing Yu Ying’s words, Phoenix Five said with a frown, “You said the sacred maiden was lost 30 years ago. In this case, Liqing isn’t the sacred maiden then!” Liqing didn’t look like a 30-year-old woman!

Yu Ying also nodded and said, “You’re right. That woman should be a fake one. It must be because she wanted to be with His Highness Prince Zhan that she pretended to be the sacred maiden.” Back then, he was also startled to hear that the sacred maiden had been lost for 30 years. Now as it appeared, Liqing couldn’t be a real sacred maiden. He had sent a message to His Highness and also reported the news that Her Highness was missing. Now, he could imagine how worried His Highness would be upon receiving the letter. This time, no matter how His Highness punished him, he wouldn’t complain at all.

Situ Kong glanced at the others and immediately said, “Xi must be in the Wilderness Holy Hall now. Let’s go to scout the Wilderness Holy Hall at night.”

…

“As long as you promise you will abort your babies, eat the Love-forgetting Worm and forget Xuanyuan Mo, I’ll take you to meet your third master.”

Duanmu Xi looked at the figure walking to her with a bowl of medicine soup in his hand and kept retreating, “No… Don’t hurt my babies…”

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s frightened face, the figure said with a sinister smile, “Don’t be afraid. This is the abortion medicine I developed for you. It’ll only abort your babies. Your health won’t be affected.”

“No… My babies are innocent… No…” Duanmu Xi struggled and refused to drink the black decoction.

“Come on. Eat the Love-forgetting Worm and you will forget Xuanyuan Mo, that demon. Then, you’ll be my woman.”

“My Snow isn’t a demon. I don’t wanna forget him… No…”

On the arhat bed in the darkness, Duanmu Xi sat up abruptly with her forehead covered with sweat and dark purple eyes full of fear. She seemed to be immersed in the terrifying nightmare.

Duanmu Xi put her hand on her belly and couldn’t compose herself until she felt the babies moving in her belly.

With a fierce gaze, she clenched the corner of her quilt. That damned man asked her to agree on these two ridiculous things. He was daydreaming. She wouldn’t let anyone hurt her babies or forget Snow.

Suddenly, the fluctuation in the air made Duanmu Xi become tense. She took out the dagger from beneath the pillow and instantly jumped off the bed.

“Xi.” Suddenly, Duanmu Xi heard a pleasant and familiar male voice.

In the moonlight, Duanmu Xi recognized the comer’s stunning appearance. Instantly, she felt surprised rather than stayed wary, “It’s you!?”
